Something new

"5 more minutes.."

I groaned as I rolled around in my mattress, it was early in the morning and I could feel the sun shining through my eyelids, Tsireya happened to get in my room and jump in next to me preventing me to wake up

"Cmon Naya! We have a lot to do today, remember we'll be teaching Toruk Macto's kids !"

She said excitedly as she kept on shaking me causing me to get up

"okay okay! I'm coming just stop shaking me!"

I said trying to get her off of me, she giggled and got up from my mattress

" I better see you out here in 10 minutes!"

She said as she headed out the door and disappeared from my view

-

"Rotxo ? You're here too?"

I said surprised as Aonung and Rotxo came towards me and Tsireya. We were near the reef patiently waiting for Toruk Macto's kids

"I thought I'd help you guys out here, plus Aonung is making me.."

He says

"I'm not about to endure this alone with those two"

Aonung said referring to me and Tsireya as if being with us together was so bad- we quite literally live with him

"We don't want you here either! You're still a bad teacher"

I said teasing and moved past him, I could feel him making faces at me and mimicking me but I acted as if I didn't notice as I walked to the edge of the pier

"There they are!"

Tsireya exclaimed as I looked over from afar seeing Neteyam and Lo'ak and the rest of the Sully kids coming up towards us

All three of the Metkayina dived in the water without me noticing as I was still focused on Lo'ak and Neteyam. I turned around to see Aonung already in the water as he signaled me to get in

I dived in as the fresh water splashed between my skin, it never ceases me to get over how ethereal the ocean in Pandora makes me feel

I swam up to the surface and I could see the Sully kids at awe as they looked around at the life surrounding the waters. Fish and other creatures swimming around them and it made me smile at how mesmerized they seemed

Tsireya smiled as she signaled them to follow. Me, Tsireya and the two Metkayina boys swam ahead, slowing down or stopping every once in awhile to look back at the others. They were pretty slow at swimming

And I thought I was slow when I first got here

I watched as the Forest Navi went back up for air. The two boys stuck their heads back into the water and Tsireya signed for them to swim with us. They obviously don't know what she was trying to say- they didn't know sign language. I completely forgot about all their training before

I came up with the simplest thing I could think of for them to slightly get the hint, I moved my arm forward beckoning for them to keep following

We waited patiently for the group of Omaticaya to catch up. When they did, they didn't get much further before they had to go back up again

What is wrong with them?

Aonung signaled looking at us confused

They do not know how to stay underwater

Rotxo replied signaling back

Well of course- they aren't from here

Stop it- they are untrained
