Avatar - Me and the Devil.

Prolog

I wasn't special, I wasn't a marine or a scientist sent here from earth to study Pandora, I was a behaviorist—some say behaviorists are scientists too; but the brain isn't made up of mathematics and hope, it's like the roots of trees. Forever speaking but unheard.

I study people's brains and their behavior. I don't look at it with hope and faith. I'm nothing special, not really.

When I was accepted to help with Project Pandora, I was exhilarated. This was my big break, something to get me out there.

I never expected for it to spiral into my life unprofessionally—become personal, emotional.

That I would have to fight in a war between man and alien, choose between my own people and a clan of beings that accepted me—welcomed me, trained and made me one of them.

This wasn't supposed to become personal, but it did.
