Na'vi word- Tsaheylu (the bond)
Skxawng- Idiot/ Moron

*Aonung calls to the Ilus*

"These are ilu." Ao'nung announced. "If you want to live here, you have to ride."
"Nylah'a, you will teach Neteyam, Tsireya, you and I will show Lo'ak."

Neteyam looks over to Nylah'a and smiles.

Neteyam and Nylah'a

Nylah'a looks over to Lo'ak and Tsireya.

"You know, I think my sister has a thing for your brother." Nylah'a looked to Neteyam.

"She's in luck because my brother liked her the second he saw her." Neteyam replied. "Watch him make a fool out of himself though, he's a skxawng."

Nylah'a giggled. Neteyam smiled down at her.

"Okay focus." Nylah'a said seriously.

"Be gentle when making Tsaheylu." Nylah'a said looking up at Neteyam on the ilu. "They're like our ikrans of the ocean."

Neteyam takes a deep breath.

"That's it breathe." Nylah'a spoke calmly.

Neteyam makes the bond.

"Feel her heartbeat, her breath, her strength."

"Hold on to this, now tell her where to go."

Neteyam took one last deep breath before gliding through the water on his ilu. Gliding through the water, he did it so gracefully, like he had been doing it his whole life.

"Look, Nylah'a i'm doing it!" Neteyam shouted.

Nylah'a smiled.

"Keep going, your doing so good!" Nylah'a shouted back.

"Yip yip yip yip!" Neteyam yelled.

Nylah'a laughed.

Nylah'a swam and called her ilu so she could join Neteyam.

"Okay forest boy, you think you'll be faster than me?" Nylah'a challenged Neteyam.

Nylah'a speeds through the water.

"Hey cheater! Get back here!" Neteyam yells, speeding off to follow her.

*Race you back to the village.* Nylah'a signed.

*Your on!.* Neteyam signed back.

Neteyam and Nylah'a race back to the village.

"You cut me off back there when you went around that coral, or I would've won." Neteyam said walking out of the water with Nylah'a.

"I see somebody's a sore loser." Nylah'a replied.

"No, I just can't hold my breath as long as you can." Neteyam snapped back.

"Well i've been at this for years so that's a bonus for me." Nylah'a replied.

"Look it's Tuk and Tsireya." Neteyam pointed over to the spot on the sand.

"Let's go say hi." Nylah'a grabbed Neteyam's arm dragging him over.

"Sister!" Nylah'a yelled.

"Ny!" Tsireya yelled back.

"How'd it go with teaching Lo'ak?" Nylah'a asked Tsireya.

"Um well." Tsireya replied.

"It was a total fail, my brother is a skxawng." Tuk said to Nylah'a.

"Tuk, don't say that!" Neteyam yelled.
