****Avatar Story****
A/N: This is a story idea about: What if Jake had the power to stop of destruction of Hometree? In this story, Jake is a descendent of an ancient and powerful clan that called themselves the Great Legacy. They were seen as the guardians of the earth sent down by God himself. Their powers only extended to those necessary to protect the earth: telekinesis (limited if being used to inflict harm), power to grow and restore plant life, create new plantation, force fields to block fires and the like destroying the earth and its inhabitants (plant, animal, and human alike), etc. But the clans have been known to have gone extinct. Or so the humans thought…

It's not complete at all but it would be a good idea in my opinion if I ever get the chance to write it.
The Tsahik, Mo'at, stalked up to the 'traitors' of the clan with some difficulty. It was like the destruction of her home was draining her energy and spirit. With a few more steps, she was in front of the dreamwalker who called himself Jake Sully. With a pained look on her face, she raised a knife to the marine's neck.
"Mo'at! No!" the second 'traitor', a scientist named Grace, shouted in panic. But the spiritual leader of the Omaticaya continued to hold up the weapon and stare into the eyes of Jake.
"If you are one of us...help us" she pleaded and cut the vines that had him bound. Jake could look at her with guilt as she cut the restraints on Grace. He turned to the women.
"Run! You have to run!" he gently shoved them in the direction to safety. Grace looked up and into his eyes, she could see conflict in them, like he was thinking over something. And she had a clue what.
"You are not staying behind, Sully! You can't stop them alone!" she shouted as Mo'at tried to pull her away.
But Jake only walked closer to the large tree that his new clan call home. When the Dragon along with its smaller company had arrived in sight and the Na'vi tried to attack, failing, something came over him.
He all of a sudden had this feeling like he could stop the missiles and the destruction. He had this overwhelming need to protect and restore the beautiful nature. He felt this power within him that he hadn't felt for many years.
With a few more steps, Jake was in front of hometree with his head down, flames flickering and flashing behind him.
…Great Legacy…
Quaritch looked on at the fire with a blissful smile, the panicking natives and burning wood giving him pleasure. But he noticed something that wasn't supposed to be there. One of the natives was standing with his head down in front of their target, the tree.
"What is that savage doing?" he asked himself and the pilot in front of him.
…Great Legacy…
Neytiri looked back to see more of her people running in fear of the fire blazing behind them. They were screaming and shrieking as they rushed away. But it seemed like the assault had stopped. The flying metal things had stopped shooting the metal that caused the fire.
She could not understand why they would stop until she saw it.
"Jhake?" she whispered to herself. She was so confused. She should be furious with him for betraying her and her people, but she still had this deep love for him hidden inside. Now she was stuck, she couldn't decide what to do. Go back to save Jake from getting himself killed or helping her people.
That's when she heard him talk, and it confused her. It was like his voice was so loud you could hear it anywhere. It was deep and did not sound like him. And it was also like three voices were speaking at once.
…Great Legacy…
"I am Jacob Aaron Sully..." he took a step forward and raised his head slowly as he spoke "I am the last of the Great Legacy..." a soft glow came from his body when he said those last two words "And I am not going to let you cut down this tree, Quaritch!" he shouted.
…Great Legacy…
"Oh my god..." Grace whispered to herself. She heard of the Great Legacy. There is a legend on Earth that told of a group of people who lived to balance power and preserve nature. She remembered idolizing them as a little girl, admiring how nature was their only goal in life. The people of Earth believed they went extinct more than a century ago, no survivors from the attack the American government planned against them.
Now Jake is saying he is the last of them?
…Great Legacy…
"Great Legacy? What the hell is Sully going on about?" Quaritch wondered, angry and confused.
"If he won't move...his blue body is just gonna have to die like the rest of those monkeys" he said to himself before demanding "All call signs, switch missiles. Give me HE's at the base of the west columns"
One of the officers spoke through the radio "Rider section, switch missiles" and pilots from the different airships around the Dragon started announcing when they were loaded and ready.
"Bring it down..." Quaritch simply said and they took fire.
…Great Legacy…
Jake breathed in and out calmly, waiting for the next round of missiles. He felt like a whole new person. It was like he felt the influence of many fogging his mind, telling him to protect the innocent and teach a lesson to the ruthless. He wasn't in complete control of his body but he was also not worried.
The sound of missiles caught his attention and his head raised up to look at the ships and his eyes snapped open...
...they were glowing completely white.
…Great Legacy…
Neytiri watched as the metal birds shot missiles at hometree...before each and every one of them stopped in midair, glowing a bright white. She didn't know why but she thought it had something to do with Jhake holding his arms up at them, his hands glowing white as well.
…Great Legacy…
"Stand down, Quaritch! You don't stand a chance against me!" Jake shouted. He slowly brought his hands down, the glowing missiles following the movement. He kept lowering them until the missiles were completely submerged in the lake in front of him.
