13. They Know

'No One's Pov'

"Everyone! Our brothers and sisters have returned!"

Y/n's eyes were glued to the Tulkun that swam around in the water in front of her. Rotxo ran up the beach to the three forest children. "Come, there is someone I would like for you to meet Y/n" Rotxo cheered as he grabbed Y/n's hand. Y/n stumbled as Rotxo pulled her along, she gave a quick glance to Neteyam and Lo'ak. They smiled and followed. Kiri and Tuk were standing outside the families pod, as Kiri was also struck by the Tulkun. Tsireya ran to Kiri and pulled her into the water with her, as Tuk followed. 

"You must meet my spirit brother" Rotxo smiled to Y/n as she nodded following him. Neteyam and Lo'ak were not far behind. The four children got into the water, swimming towards Rotxo's spirit brother. As the four approached the large creature, it cooed. Y/n was confused as she didn't understand what the Tulkun was saying. Rotxo signed something to the Tulkun, as he made a quick glance to Y/n. She gave a warm smile as she looked towards the Tulkun. 

'These are my new friends, they are not from here, their father is Toruk Makto, the great warrior, they have come to our village seeking refuge' Rotxo signed to the Tulkun.

Y/n understood sign language very well. She smiled at the fact that Rotxo considered them friends. The Tulkun hummed in response to Rotxo, he turned to Y/n,

'He says you are very beautiful and that it's a pleasure to be in your presence' Rotxo signed to Y/n with a smile. Y/n smiled at the Tulkun as she turned to sign back to it,

'How kind of you, I am delighted to meet you, what is your name' Y/n asked the Tulkun

The Tulkun hummed in response, as Y/n turned to Rotxo. 'His name is Ru'tekey'. (Rue-Tea-Key)Y/n nodded her head. Lo'ak and Neteyam were still getting use to sign language, while they were still good at it, just not as good as Y/n. The two brothers looked at each other in confusion. Rotxo motioned for the three of them to follow him. Y/n turned around to face the brothers as she signaled to them to follow. They swam after her and the four children grabbed on to the Tulkun as it took them gliding through the water. 

~After Awhile~

All the forest children were introduced to all the reef children's spirt brothers and sisters. Y/n enjoyed watching Kiri admire Tsireya as she was spending time with her spirit sister. Y/n sat with Tuk on the docks outside of their families pod. Lo'ak and Neteyam were with Ao'nung and Rotxo, playing around in the water. Y/n smiled at how they were getting along with Ao'nung. Tuk laughed as a baby Ilu swam up to the docks.

"Y/n, look" Tuk cheered. Y/n saw the baby Ilu and smiled. "I think he likes you, Tuk". That made Tuk smile as she reached her hand down to gently rub the Ilu's head. Y/n enjoyed how peaceful things were, but she couldn't shake the feeling of worry. The vision that she saw at the cove still clouded her mind. She tried her best to forget about it, but it wasn't easy. She zoned out as she looked at the Metkayina people swimming. 

Lo'ak and Neteyam had gone looking for Y/n, only to find her with Tuk. They walked over to her and both sat next to her. "Y/n are you okay" Lo'ak asked worried. Y/n was snapped out of her thoughts and gave the two brothers a smile.

"Yeah, just enjoying the view" she spoke softly. Lo'ak leaned in closer to Y/n's ear, "Sure it's not something else that has you all distracted, princess" Lo'ak whispered with a sly smirk. Y/n hit him on the arm, "You Skxawng". Lo'ak laughed as he put his arm around her. Tuk got up and pulled at Neteyam's arm.

"Let's go play in the water" Tuk whined as she dragged Neteyam with her. Y/n laughed as Neteyam let out a small cry. Y/n leaned into Lo'ak as she rested her face in his neck. Lo'ak pulled her closer, placing his hand on her back and rubbed small circles. 

Y/n took a deep breath, "Lo'ak what are we gonna tell the others". Lo'ak let out a small laugh, "Well according to Kiri, everyone knows how Neteyam and I feel about you, even Tsireya, so I don't think it will be a big surprise to them". Y/n laughed as she sat up and looked at Lo'ak. Lo'ak give her a smile, as he placed his hand on her cheek. He slowly pulled her closer and planted a small kiss on her lips. Their peace was ruined when Kiri and Tsireya screamed from behind them. Neteyam stood there with a smile on his face.

Lo'ak sighed. "Why didn't you guys tell us!" Tsireya yelled out. Lo'ak got up and turned towards them. " Ask Neteyam the same thing". Neteyam's face dropped, as Kiri hit him on the back of the head. Y/n laughed, but stopped when Neteyam glared at her. "So how is it working, is it just two of you guys or the three of you guys" Kiri asked happily. Lo'ak and Neteyam looked at Y/n. Y/n rolled her eyes as she stood up. "It's all three of us". Kiri tapped Neteyam on the shoulder, "Told you, you had nothing to worry about". Neteyam smirked at his sister.

Tsireya laughed as she ran to Y/n and hugged her. Y/n smiled and hugged Tsireya back. Tsireya pulled away from Y/n and grabbed onto her hands. Y/n had talked to Tsireya about her feelings for Lo'ak and Neteyam before, so Tsireya truly was filled with joy. "I'm so happy for you, you deserve this" Tsireya whispered to Y/n. "Thank you Reya". Ao'nung and Rotxo walked over to the group. "What's going on" Ao'nung asked. Tsireya turned to her brother and he knew what was going on. 

Tsireya had talked to Ao'nung about backing off of Y/n, as her heart was set on Neteyam and Lo'ak. Ao'nung turned to the brothers, "I'm happy for you two". Neteyam and Lo'ak gave Ao'nung a small smile. The group decided to just hang out and talk, while Y/n was thinking about how she would approach Jake, as they haven't talked since she yelled at him.

(The next chapter or two, will be fill chapters to bring the story plot together, then after we'll get into the  start of the part of the movie that everyone hates)
