Hey everyone. Thanks for all the comments you guys sent me. I really appreciate and love hearing from you guys. 3 all of you!

Grace decided we needed to go back to the main campsite. Or the home base. She needed to talk to Selfridge about needing more time. She did have one of her students as a member of the Na'vi clan. But we still needed more time with Jake. I can't believe after only 3 months I was a clan member. Being with the Navi, I can barely remember what my life was like before I came here to Pandora. It's the same thing with Jake. He can't remember his life before coming here either. All our time was spent with the Navi. 4 months into being here I'm doing my job, a warrior. Apparently one of the best, as well as a huntress. Jake, becoming a Navi. Neytiri just barely gave permission for him to go through the Dream Ceremony. (He has already found his Ikran, a blue one.) When he's in the Dream Ceremony, he will find out what his spirit animal is. Mine was a very interesting one. I had two, the first time something had happened, in a while. The last time was with Taruk Makto's sister. My spirit animals consisted of a Thanator, and a Great Leonopteryx. It wasn't the Orange and Yellow one everyone knows. It was purple. Mo'at believes it is the Dark Shadow, the Leonopteryx Taruk Makto's sister rode in the war. Those two were the ones who brought all the clans together to fight the war. They are the reason the clans won the war against the enemy they were fighting against.

Anyway, I wasn't sure what to think yet. But I had more important things to do today. Jake and I were on our way back to the Hallelujah Mountains to our link beds. He had his Dream Ceremony to get to. When we got there, I wasn't sure how it started, but I found Grace stopping Jake from getting into the link bed. "Dammit Jake, you can never be one of them!" She yelled. I turned to look at her as my link bed was calibrating.

"What do you mean we can never be one of them?" I asked really confused.

"Our life out there takes millions of dollars of machinery to sustain. You visit - and you leave. You can't stay for your whole life. You can never truly be with them." She looked from Jake to me. "Any of them." She knew about my crush on Tsu'tey. I knew I would never be able to be with him like that. He was to be mated with Neytiri. With us getting closer this past month seems to be making it harder on me. I come to care for him more and more, but I can't do anything about it.

"You know why I'm here? Because Quaritch sent me."

"What?" Norm and I both said confused.

"That's right. To embed with the Omaticaya. To find out how to screw them out of their home. Be deceit or by force, he didn't care. And if it turned out to be force, then how best to do it."

"What about now Jake?" Grace asked.

"I'm not that guy anymore." Grace nodded. "But if i tell Quaritch the truth, he yank me out - I never see her again. And if I tell her the truth, the clan throws me out. That's if they don't cut my heart out and show it to me."

"They won't understand what you've done. They don't have a word for lie." Norm said.

Not wanting to hear the rest of what was being said, I got into my link and started it up. Not too long after I closed my eyes, I opened them in my own place through the eyes of my Navi. I got out of my room and walked to the main meeting area, where everyone goes. I saw children running around playing, women making clothes and men talking. Jake said these people would have to leave. There is nowhere for them to go.

"Charley." I heard which send chills up my spine. I knew who it was before even turning around. I took a deep breath to collect all my thoughts and emotions and feelings before turning around.

"Tsu'tey. I see you."

"I see you." Tsu'tey replied as he approached me. "I heard your skxawng brother is going through the final steps of becoming one of us. You do know we will lose brain knowledge?" He asked in a sort of joking manner. I laughed at him which made him smile. Mo'at said I was the only one who was able to get him to open up.

"Yes, he is. But don't be too harsh on him. He is my brother."

"But I like you more than I do him." I wasn't sure how to take that. He hated my brother so I'm not quite sure how much he meant about liking me.

"I do not believe you." I turned and walked away from him. I walked into the forest to go for a little run, but I heard steps behind me. I knew who it was, I had memorized the sound. Not caring that I was being followed, I started running. I had a knife with me and my sword, so I would be protected if something attacked me.

I ran for about an hour before stopping by stream to get a drink. I put my sword on the ground next to me. I heard the footsteps stop behind me. I looked behind me and saw Tsu'tey there. I stood up and turned to him.

"May I help you with something?" I asked putting a hand on my hip.

He walked towards me and stopped about a foot in front of me. "Why don't you believe me?"

"Really? That's the only thing you got out of that conversation?" I rolled my eyes at him. "I didn't mean it. I know you like me more than him. Even if it's just a little bit. He's not that hard to dislike. I think the only thing right now that I like him for, he found a threat on the clan. I don't exactly know what it is, but I know it is a threat." I didn't want to tell him Jake was the threat. Then I would become a threat to them, and I would be disgraced.

"I will talk to him tomorrow. He has to focus on the ceremony."

"You know, that's the first thing you said nice about him." I said tilting my head to the side a little. It was not like Tsu'tey to be like this towards anyone really. He seemed different today.

"I have my reasons."

"And what would those be." Without a hint of what he was talking about, he grabbed my face and pulled me to him locking our lips together. I stood frozen for a few seconds before I kissed back. He was gentle, but there was some harshness to it. In that moment, I envied Neytiri, because she would be kissed like this all the time. All too soon, Tsu'tey pulled away.

"I wanted a chance to show you how much I liked you, before I become mated."

"I..like you too." I looked up at him. He gave a small smile but it was sad. I reached up to touch his face, but he backed up. He looked at me for about 5 seconds before he turned and ran the other way, back to Hometree. I groaned and looked up at the sky.

I heard a rustling next to me making me grab my knife and getting into a defensive stance. I'm glad I did, because a Thanator jumped over the bush. It hissed at me before standing up and walked towards me. I watched it not moving a muscle, barely even breathing. It stopped in front of me after walking around and moved its antenna looking thing to me. I saw the queue and looked at the Thanator confused. I grabbed my own and carefully hooked with the Thanator's. When it connected, it felt like it did when I got my Ikran. "Hello Charley."

"Who are you? Why didn't you attack me?'

"I was told to bond with you. Like my great grandmother did with Serni Makto."

"Why?"

"There is a great danger coming. You are mine as I am yours. We will meet again." She unhooked the queue and ran off. Confused, I picked up my sword and ran back to the tree. I wasn't going to miss Jake's final ceremony.

Luckily, I was able to make it, and he was able to pass. The party afterwards made all my previous encounters seem less important. But, I couldn't get my mind off what Tsu'tey did. He had kissed me, you only do that to someone you would mate with to show it. As I danced with my sisters, I would catch glimpses of him, and he was always looking at me. I took a break after a while and saw Neytiri running off with Jake. Probably to show him the Tree of Souls. Tsu'tey did that with me, after the person was taken care of.

When the celebration was over, I didn't see Jake or Neytiri come back. But I did go to sleep late. When I got into my cove and closed my eyes and opened them to a party of our own. Jake had finished. I didn't stay up too long, because I was tired and confused about everything that happened that day. I laid down on my cot and closed my eyes, having dreams of the Thanator and Serni Makto.

Hey everyone. Again, thanks for reading this story and commenting. If you guys have any questions, I will answer any question in the next chapter at the end.
