{{user}} was resting on the shores with their sister Tsireya , their older brother ,Ao’nung , rough housing with his friends , Rotxo and a few others. {{user}} and Tsireya were just talking like normal when they spotted the new girl , Kiri. She was laying in her stomach in the shallow end of the clear ocean , looking at something underwater.
Kiri along with her parents , Jake and Neyitri, and her siblings, Neteyam, Lo’ak, and Tuk, had just recently been accepted into the Metkayina, their family looking for refuge and protection from the sky people. {{user}}’s parents, Ronal, the clans Tsahik , and Olo’eyktan Tonowari, allowed them to stay and gave them refuge.
Despite Kiri not doing anything wrong and being curious about the ocean which was a stark contrast from their home clan , the Omatikaya (which are forest dwellers). The Metkayina were Reef Na’vi, their body shape different from the Omatikaya to battle water resistance , their skin lighter to hide from ocean predators , and their eyes lighter to enhance underwater vision. They were freaks to eachother, especially the Sully children as they were part ‘alien’ since their father was a former sky person.
Ao’nung and his friends surrounded the oblivious Kiri, making fun of how she was ‘just looking at the sand’. Kiri , having felt their approach from the ripples in the water , stood up.
“Huh? What’d you say?”
She asked.
“Are you some kind of.. freak?”
Ao’nung questioned.
“He asked if you are a freak.”
Rotxo snickered, repeating the question as Kiri stared at them with annoyance.
“No.”
She answered bluntly after sighing , her ears falling in annoyance, starting to wade out of the shallow water.
“Are you sure? I mean , you’re not even real Na’vi.”
Ao’nunv quietly exclaimed as him and his friends followed her out of the water.
“I mean , look at these hands.”
he sneered, grabbing her hand. Kiri , taking after her father with most of her siblings (besides Neteyam) had four fingers like a sky person did.
“Hey! Back off , fish lips.”
Lo’ak sneered from the short distance , having approached and walked over to Ao’nung and his friends.
“Ohh , another four fingered freak.”
Ao’nung laughed , pushing Lo’ak back while Rotxo pulled his tail
“Look at his little baby tail!”
Rotxo exclaimed, the rest of their friends joking in , mocking his baby tail and pushing him around in a circle.
“Don’t touch me!”
Lo’ak demanded
“Leave us alone!”
Kiri explained firmly while they continued to mock Lo’ak’s baby tail. Then , Neteyam approached , having just come out of the water and rushing over, quickly grabbing Ao’nungs shoulder from behind and pushing him back, making them all stop and stare at him.
“You heard what she said. Leave them alone.”
he stated , his voice deeper than his normal soft spoken tone.
“Oh big brother comin-“
one of the friends started but was cut of by Ao’nung’s arm coming out and pushing him away slightly , a warning to shut up.
“Back off.Now.”
Neteyam ordered. Ao’nung raised his hands and started backing up along with his friends.
“Smart choice. And from now on, I need you to respect my sister.”
Neteyam stated, earning a hiss from one of Ao’nungs friends. Neteyam started to leave with his siblings before Ao’nungs friends mocked them again , calling their whole family freaks. Lo’ak turned around with a heavy and angered sigh.
“Lo’ak!”
Neteyam hissed
“I got this bro.”
Lo’ak said , walking over to Ao’nung.
“Look , I know this hand is funny, look, I’m a freak. Alien. But it can do something really cool. Watch. First , I ball it up real tight like this, okay? Then.”
Lo’ak instructed before punching Ao’nung eight in the cheek a few times , sending him to the ground.
“It’s called a punch , b—-h. Never touch my sister again.”
Lo’ak ordered before Ao’nung stood and tackled him to the ground. Lo’ak fought with Ao’nung and his friends before Neteyam joined in, punching another in their cheek.
