Kireyi

Curious shouts filled the air as forest creatures flew through the air. The wind from their wings causing a light breeze before the group landed. The waves rushed and they sky blew with a new feeling as the people made their way to the commotion. Travelers had appeared, triggering the horns to call everyone in. With the sun high and water cold, two girls raced on their Ilu. 

"Hurry, I want to see them!" Tsireya exclaimed, rushing on her Ilu; the water sprayed around her in chilly ripples, kissing the girls cheeks. She looked back at her older sister Kireyi, waiting for a response, "I'm going, I'm going... but I'm taking my time! I'll meet you there, Reya."

Tsireya's shiny blue eyes squinted as she smiled, diving once more with her guide she resurfaced getting out of the water, a grace following her movements. Kireyi followed after her, goosebumps prickling her skin as she stood away from the water, warm sand enveloping her feet, and although the girl said she didn't want to rush, she didn't move at a slow pace either. She was secretly just as excited to see what the "travelers" were about. Carefully sneaking through the crowd she caught up to her younger sister. Subtly wringing water from her hair, Kireyi stayed close to Tsireya.

She caught a glimpse of her sibling and one of the boys making eye contact, "Hey," he said coyly, and Tsireya looked away, smiling. Elbowing her sister softly, she chuckled at the sight of the two; a little crush shouldn't be a problem. But knowing their parents, the two should be careful; that's a talk for later. Kireyi looked at the family, taking them in one by one, they were a night blue with thin limbs and tails. Their hair hadnt seemed curly like her villagers hair, their eyes a contrasting amber color. First looking at who she guessed to be the younger boy staring at Tsireya, she then moved to the two girls, but their mother and father quickly took her attention. The Metkayina told many tales about the war fought with these two; Toruk Makto and his mate Neytiri te Tskaha Mo'at'ite were mighty warriors her parents fought with. Yet... why were they here?

Her question was answered rather fast, her ears twitching as Toruk Makto spoke up, otherwise known as Jake Sully, "We will learn your ways, right everyone?" He desperately looked around at his family as they nodded slowly, "Just please, we need a place to reside.."

She observed the family again, another boy taking her attention; from her first inference about the younger brother, this boy held himself as older. He looked over, locking eyes with her, she could feel her tail stiffen from surprise, trying to play off her shock she silently raised her eye to her eyebrow sweeping it down. A common sign to say a Na'vi greeting otherwise known as, "Oel ngati kameie" and she quickly averted her eyes down, hoping her surprise didn't show on her face. Although the girl looked away, she could feel his stare. This time it was Tsireya softly elbowing her in return, earning a glare. Her brother Aonung was near, picking on the boys tails, she hit her sibling on the arm glaring, "Be nice Aon," Kireyi silently scolded.

"They do not know the sea, so they will be like babies taking their first breath. Teach them our ways so they do not suffer the shame of being useless," Their father, Tonowari motioned for his children to come over and Kireyi noticed as they cringed in displeasure at his earlier words, "My oldest, Kireyi and Aonung, and my younger one, Tsireya, will get you all settled in."

"But this isn't-" With a smack on the arm from Tsireya, Aonung quickly shushed himself, the distaste still written on his face.

"You can follow Kireyi and me! We'll show you to your new home," With a soft smile, Tsireya started taking their belongings; Kireyi taking note of the excitement from her younger sister, looked at the family once more before following in correspondence. With the Chief's daughters leading the family, the villagers made way, allowing easier access for them to get through the crowd. More so it'd be easier for the two girls to make way. Their mother and father silently watched as they stepped onto the woven pathway, Aonung rolled his eyes disappearing with his friends.
