I rode my ilu following tsireya who followed lo'ak to payakan. Lo'ak thought non of us believed him about payakan, so he took us to see him. After a while of talking above water lo'ak dove into the water. Payakan opened his mouth wide and lo'ak swam in. Then it shut. Neteyam and I had the same reaction and tried to swim forward to save him but tsireya held out a hand to tell us to stop. I reluctantly stayed put in the seaweed that hid us. My anxiety started to get the better of me. I started to feel short on breath and I couldn't sit still. Ao'nung noticed I was getting antsy and helped me to the surface. When I breached the surface l gasped of air. "Breathe." Ao'nung said trying to calm me. I started to breath faster then I felt two hands on my waist. Then I calmed myself. "I'm sorry ao'nung I just... I don't know what's wrong with me" "it is okay I promise. I understand." Ao'nung was being caring and I honestly scared me. But I was glad I had someone there for me. I took a deep breath and dived back in the water. Ao'nung held my hand when we dove back in then as we got closer to the others he let go.

Lo'ak swam out of payakans mouth. And went up to his face above the water. Payakan cried and lo'ak looked like he wanted to. After lo'ak and payakan said their goodbyes we all came to the surface. "We must tell my parents about this." "No! We can't" lo'ak said to tsireyas statement. "Lo'ak, you are bonded with tulkun now, the tsahik and Olo'eyktan have right to know." "Lo'ak, tsireya is right they have the right to know. This is their clan." I called my ilu over and rode back to the village. As soon as we arrived it felt like we were walking to our death. Ronal and tonowari were leading us to their Mauri. "You allowed this! You allowed him to bond with the outcast" ronal yelled. "tsireya you disappoint me daugter. Tsireya looked like she was on the verge of tears. She sniffed trying to hold her tears in. I heard footsteps from behind us and looked and saw mom and dad. "And you son of a great warrior, who has been taught better." "Payakan saved my life sir. You don't know him" Sit..." tonowari said All of us hesitated. "SIT DOWN" tonowari commanded. Tsireya had sat very quickly and i too sat as fast as I could. Tonowari explained the long history of the tulkun and how they fought for many years and came to the conclusion that killing only brought more killing. "im sorry sir, but your wrong. "Lo'ak! You speak to Olo'eyktan!" Mom said sternly. "I know that." Lo'ak tried to say. "If you know! Then act like it" I scolded lo'ak to try and keep him out of more trouble." "That's enough!" Dad yelled after i butted in. "I know what I know." My idiot brother said again. Dad got behind lo'ak and told him that's enough again."I'll deal with this one" dad said to Olo'eyktan again before pulling lo'ak away. Dad and lo'ak walked off "you best keep your brother under control" tonowari said to me i hissed at him. " my brother is a child! As am I! As is your daughter! No disrespect Olo'eyktan but you must give him time! We are still learning and have been through enough!" I got up and left. The ronal and tonowari in shock

I walked on the beach watching the eclipse wishing I could be back in the forest. This wasn't fair. Not one bit. We were trying to just fit in and be part of the metkayina. I walked back to my mauri and mom and dad looked at me. I walked passed them and rolled out my mat. Kiri was was sitting in the corner and saw I was in a bad mood. She slid me a piece of fish trying to make me feel better. I looked at the fish and slid it back to her. I wasn't in the mood.

"Y/n! Let's go!" Dad yelled "what's wrong?!" "There's a tulkun that's possibly been killed we need your help!" I got up and ran to where my tsurak would be I made the bond and followed dad through the water. The day had been fine. I was helping with children I was cooking and tending to the animals all was fine until I heard the words tulkun and killed in the same sentence. The rain was pouring on us it just felt awful. I rode my tsurak next to ronal and when we got closer to the tulkun ronal broke down. "She was my spirit sister. She was a composer of songs." Mom looked knowingly at ronal. During the first war mom lost seze her ikran. I got off my tsurak and went to ronal I hugged her as she cried on the tulkuns fin. "She is with eywa now, she was an amazing sister. I heard her songs the day I met the tulkun." Ronal looked at me with tears in her eyes. She kept talking about all the things she and her spirit sister did together. How long she had waited to have her baby. "What is this tonowari. What is this!" She screamed sobbing more. I held out my hand to her and she took it. And we prayed to eywa. Dad and mom came from behind ronals spirit sister with a tracker in hand. I felt gutted, it was just adding on to all the greif.
