"Y/N..I-"

...

"HEY Y'ALL!! WHAT IS GOING AWN
DOWN THERE??!" Manu's voice is heard, interrupting Neteyam.

Neteyam looks around, when suddenly Manu falls down from a tree, holding a small bag.

"What the- how the hell did you find us?!" Y/N asks, raising a brow.

"I never intended on finding you guys, I just saw you two and wanted to drop in. Literally." Manu explains, brushing off his shoulder.

"Plus, what the hell are you guys doing out here? Your dad has been calling you for awhile now, you should get going." Manu says, pointing at Neteyam.

Neteyam raises a brow, but leaves soon after.

"You're welcome." Manu says, brushing his shoulder off.

"What the- why were you in a tree." Y/N asks, glaring at her older brother.

"I just..wanted to try something different." Manu says, sighing.

"What do you mean?" Y/N asks, looking at Manu, who looks at his hands.

"Lately I've been feeling like shit. So I decided to try to do something that'd make me..feel something, y'know?" Manu says, his brows furrowed.

Y/N nods, not saying a single word. It's not everyday Manu gets to talk about his emotions. For Manu, he thinks he shouldn't cry or be sad because that's not what a 'man' is.

So him being vulnerable now was something...special.

"I just- if I die tomorrow..I feel like I would die knowing I didn't actually live my life." Manu explains, walking around some trees.

"Yep, I know what you mean." Y/N says, patting Manu's back.

"But yeah- anyways I was in the tree and I heard voices. I look, and see you and the Sully dude. So I decided to start hello." Manu explains, pretending as if nothing happened.

Y/N laughs, "c'mon, let's go back to Maya." She says, making her way towards the village.

Manu hurriedly follows after his younger sister.

•••

Walking into the Marui, they see Maya sitting on her bed- combing her fingers through her curly hair.

"Finally you guys are back." Maya greets.

Manu rolls his eyes, sitting on his own bed, while Y/N waves at the older girl.

"What were you guys up to anyway? I was getting kinda worried.." Maya says, yawning.

"I was climbing trees when I saw Y/N with Neptune." Manu says, wrapping himself up in his blanket.

"Neptune?" Maya asks, raising a brow.

"That blue guy. Ne...Ne.." Manu zones out, trying to remember the name.

"Neteyam." Y/N says.

"Yeah! That's the one!" Manu confirms, nodding his head with a thumbs up.

Maya deadpans at the two younger teens in front of her.

"You guys can't be fooling around with boys..or girls. We have to get ready for Quaritch's attacks." Maya says, combing her fingers through her curly hair.

"Yeah, whateverrrr.." Manu says, laying in his bed with the covers over his head.

"I'm serious. I had a meeting with Ronal today, and she is making sure everyone is on high alert." Maya says sternly, snatching the blanket from Manu- who groans.

"Seriously, all we gotta do is just take him out." Y/N states simply.

"It won't be that easy, he has hella people AND blue people with him. And those big star wars looking ships." Manu adds, pointing up at the ceiling.

"Did he just say blue people-"

"We're fucked."

"We need to prepare for Quaritch." Maya says, standing in the hut with her two siblings, Ronal, Tonowari, Neytiri, and Jake Sully.

"I'm still confused as to how you know of all of us-"

"Shh.. She's talking." Manu says, shushing Jake as Maya continues.

"We don't know exactly what he'll do, but we know what his goal is." Maya states, pacing back and forth.

"Excuse me, but what is his goal?" Tonowari asks, raising his hand.

"His main goal is to kill that guy." Maya answers, pointing directly at Jake with a smile.

"But now he knows of your existence. And that stunt you and your siblings pulled before, I'm sure he's got his eyes on you too." Jake protests, holding Neytiri's hand.

"Of course he has his eyes on us. I mean- who wouldn't?" Manu adds, posing and showing off his curly hair and smooth skin.

"Manu.." Ronal deadpans at the boy.

"He probably is on the look out for us, but we all knew the consequences and are ready for anything." Maya says, though she didn't sound very confident.

"Anything?" Neytiri asks.

"Anything.. Almost anything." Maya confirms, looking down at her feet.

Neytiri sighs, looking at Jake with weary eyes.

"Whatever Quaritch is planning, it's gonna take all of us to kick his ass." Y/N states, looking around at everyone in the room.

"What exactly is he planning?" Ronal asks, frowning and holding her belly bump.

"He is coming with ships- or boats. He's going to have humans with him, as well as avatar." Y/N explains, pointing to Jake and Neytiri.

"I'm pretty sure you two are already familiar with that." She says, and Neytiri and Jake look at each other.

"So what do we need to do-"

"KICK THEIR ASSES! WE NEED TO -and I may sound like a certain politician when I say this but- WE NEED TO PUT THEM BACK WHERE THEY CAME FROM!" Y/N yells, interrupting Tonowari's question.

Ronal smirks at the young Na'vi's courage, while Tonowari sighs.

"I know fighting may be against what you all believe in, but it's either we fight..or we die." Manu explains, pointing his finger at everyone.

"You? Dead.

Your wife? Dead.
The children? Dead.
Your unborn baby? Dead as hell." Manu says, going on and on.

Tonowari facepalms.

"Remember, we saved your guys' Tulkun friends.." Manu clarifies, pointing directly at Ronal and Tonowari.

The couple stays silent, only looking at each other.

Silence.

...

"So, what do you guys say? Are you in? Or are y'all out?"

Jake and Neytiri nod, fighting was nothing new to them.

On the other hand, Ronal and Tonowari share a look.

"We have no other choice."
