Jakes Pov

I'm still not as good as the others riding the Direhorses but I'm good enough to ride to the start of the Ikran Mountain, i am following Tsu'Tey and two other Na'vi

, we arrive to where we have to get off the Direhorses and start to walk, we all walk for a little while till we get to a place where there is a dead end, but I see and a floating mountain head our way with vines hanging off the side

"don't be scared JakeSully" Tsu'Tey says while jumping on one of the vines and start climbing up while the other two Na'vi follow his actions and jump on to the vines

I roll my eyes at him and jump on one of the vines and start climbing up to the top and reach to where the others are and we all start walking across this large tree branch to reach where the ikran are, we finally get into a cave and reach a opening and I put my hand up to block the sun from my eyes and walk out further and look in the opening at all of the ikran, I see Sha'Di flying close and she lands in front of all of us and gets off her Ikran, I nod at her and she smiles back at me.

Sha'Di POV

I land in front of everyone and I smile at Jake and rub Celes head and put a woven hood over her eyes, Tsu'Tey walks in front of Jake and says

"JakeSully you will go first" He says with a sarcastic smile

Jake takes his bow off and hands it to Tsu'Tey and walks up the little path and you follow him while glaring at Tsu'Tey

"How do I know an Ikran will choose me" Jake asks you

"He will try to kill and it will know how strong your heart is" you say as you touch Jake's chest

Jake walks down to where all the ikran are and they all start to roar and hiss at him, Jake takes out the rope he had and started to swing it around and started to his at the ikran that stood its ground in front of him Jake hissed back at the ikran, it charged at him and Jake got the rope around the ikran mouth as Jake got on the neck of the Ikran and held its neck

"JAKE Make the Bond" you yell at Jake "the bond Jake"

The ikran bucked Jake off and over the side of the cliff where he grabbed some roots

"JAKE!!!" you yell as Tsu'Tey just laughs at him you turn around and hiss at him to shut him up

Jake gets back up and runs at ikran and brings the ikran down and holds its head down with his legs and uses his hands to make the bond, the ikran calms down and Jake take the rope off its mouth as the ikran sits up and Jake pats the side of its neck

"go Jake the first flight seals the bond" you say as you push the ikran towards the edge as he takes off you run over to Celes and jump on her and make the bond and jump off and start flying towards Jake as both of you start flying in a random directions having fun, you make him follow you back towards the Home tree and land in the ikran part of the tree, and you and Jake talk about his first flight on the ikran.

*a couple of days later*

Jake's pov

(I was not good at Direhorses riding but I was born to fly a natural born killer from the sky, but the only problem was we were not the only one)

A shadow casted over me and Sha'Di as we were hunting, I looked up and saw a huge Ikran, i looked over at Sha'Di and saw the worried looked at her worried expression on her face

The huge ikran dived down after me and Sha'Di; we shot into the forest, diving in and out of trees

"follow me" I yell out to Sha'Di she nods her head as she follows me the trees and we finally manage to shake off the huge ikran and land on the side of a tree

Sha'di's POV

You pet Celes neck and say "Calm Celes"

Jake looks as you and you both start to laugh

"Lets us head back to Hometree" you say to Jake as you turn Celes and head back to Hometree with Jake following you

After you got back to Hometree you walk down the spiral tree because you wanted to change, you see Jake looking at the Toruk skull

"That is Toruk my grandfather's grandfather rode it" you said

"He rode that" Jake said

"yes there has been only five Toruk Maktos since the first moon of mother planet" you say to Jake "you need to get some sleep Jake you becoming one of the people tomorrow" you say as you stand up and grab his head and you and him walk up to the hammocks and you both get into your own and go to sleep

(im going to skip to where you are putting paint on him for the ceremony)

*the ceremony of Jake Becoming part of the People*

Sha'di's POV

You sit in front of Jake putting paint on him for the ceremony, dragging two of your fingers down his nose and past his lips

"Are you ready Jake" you ask him

"I'm kind of nervous" Jake says while smiling

"Don't be you will be fine" you say while putting your hands on his shoulders and he puts his hands on your arms and looks at you, and you look away blushing

You and Jake get up and walk towards where everyone is gathered and waiting

"JakeSully Ewya has blessed you with becoming one of the people" Mo'at says as she puts her hand on his shoulders as you do the same and everyone else follows

The clan holds a party in Jake's honor of becoming part of people

"Come Jake come with me" you say as you drag him towards the Tree of Souls, you guys walk for a few Jake grabs your tail and pulls you back a little bit and you laugh and run over to the tree of souls

"This is the place where answers are heard and sometimes answered" you say as you bond to the tree

You see Jake bond to the tree "I hear them Sha'Di like their right hear" Jake says

"Now that you are Omatikaya you may make your bow out tree of Ewya and you may choose a woman as your mate" you say with a little bit of sadness in you "there is Ninat, she is best singer of clan"

"She is a good singer but I don't want Ninat" Jake says

"There is Swirya she is a good hunter" you say as a seed of Ewya floats in your hand

"She is a good hunter" Jake says, you frown a little bit "but I have already chosen, but she has to choose me also"

You smile and say "she already has"

Jake puts his hand your cheek and you put your hand on top of his hand and he bends down and kisses you and you kiss back, you both pull away your eyes sparkling

"Kissing is very good, but we have something better" you say as you both kneel down onto the moss, you take the end of your queue and watch as Jake grabs his queue his tail twitching in nervousness, the queues connect together in the ultimate bond, you both sink onto the floor of moss in a kiss, the light rippled around the both of you.

*later*

You lay your head on Jake's chest worn out

"I am with your now my Jake we are mated for life" you say

"We are?" Jake Ask

"Yes it is our way" you say

Jake wraps his arms around your waist as you both fall asleep under the protection of Ewya
