the last thing that tsu'tey remembered was the searing pain of a man made bullet ripping through his torso as he free fell from the back of the plane upon impact.

he vaguely remembered the stick of plant-life slicing against skin as he careened through the forest canopy before the impact into the dirt. after that was silence, darkness as his body gave up from his many injuries.

when he had awoken, tsu'tey had assumed that he would be under eywa's care, yet instead he found himself surrounded by sky people in their breathing masks and he had panicked, swiping at them before he had been shot with something else, something that had him passing out once more, although this time it didn't quite feel real.

this time though, upon awaking once more, he found himself alone in a room.

it was decorated like the forest which was rather… endearing. not that he would ever admit it to himself. the sky people did not need to know that he felt something other than hate.

the sound of the door opening had his gaze snapping up, panic sweeping through his chest.

his gaze landed upon you - someone who looked as if they were a scientist, although you looked nothing like the ones he had met in the past. you were different.

a male, that much he had figured out, yet you weren't jake sully. or norm. you were a stranger, and tsu'tey couldn't figure out if that was a good thing or not. if it was a sign of something terrible happening or otherwise.

"who are you," tsu'tey spoke, although his voice came out a croak from being out for so long.

he made an attempt to move, although he found himself restrained, leather bands wrapped around his wrists - he tried to tug at them, although he found it useless, the metal holding them in place rattling tauntingly.

"release me human, you cannot contain me."

tsu'tey wasn't used to feeling panic, yet right now it was the only emotion he could feel. an unfamiliar sky person coming into the room - it wasn't something he was familiar with and right now, he just wanted to go back to his people.

"please. let me leave."

he wasn't sure if the man before him was good or not. he hoped that you were good.
