Bleeding, crying, terrified
Leskxir, tsngerawvìk, fe'perey
•—————•—————•—————•—————•Two Omatikaya warriors were patrolling the borders when they heard something running, something frantic. A heartbeat pounding out of its chest. Gasps and wincing cries.
They readied their weapons and let it come. The small woman rushed forward, her clothes were soaked in blood. Her mask had a few scratches on it.
The first warrior went to strike her but the second one recognized her.
"Stop! It is Tsu'tey's demon." He put his arm out. It was Arvok who stopped Atan from striking Hia. Tsu'tey's brother.
"Thank you!" She panted.
"You are injured, here, I will carry you." Arvok knelt, picking her up like a baby.
"I can walk." She frowned
"Don't be stubborn. My brother would skin me if I did not carry you." Arvok rolled his eyes.
The trio came to Hometree. The first to greet them was Mo'at.
"My child, you are covered in blood!" Mo'at cried. She stripped Hia down, exposing her wounds and began dressing them.
That's when Tsu'tey was notified she was here. He went for her Avatar first. But then he noticed the alien smell. He rushed down to the healers hut.
He laid eyes on her small familiar form.
"Hia." His breath caught in his throat.
The nantangs got to her. She had wounds on her legs and back, her hands were scratched and her arms were wounded.
Hia looked away, she didn't want him to see her like this. Half naked and wounded.
He knelt, meeting her height.
"Hia, look at me, what happened?" He guided her face to look at him. Her eyes were full of fear and sorrow.
"What did they do?" He asked as Mo'at put a healing paste on her skin.
"They forced me out. They have the others imprisoned. Tsu'tey, I hurt my father. I think he hates me." Her voice cracked. Tsu'tey wanted to wipe away her tears, he held her masked face in his hands and tried to soothe her.
He didn't know what to say.

It was an hour before the others returned.
Jake and Neytiri ran down the spiral. Not far from where Tsu'tey, Hia, and Eytukan were talking strategy on how to strike the humans.
"Father! Mother!" Neytiri called.
Eytukan stood, prepared to listen to his daughter.
"Eytukan, I have something to say." Jake announced.
"Please listen." Grace asked.
