The Girl Eywa Keeps Alive (Neteyam x Reader)

Good to Bad

We sat on the branch together facing each other. I was looking down at the ground waiting for the siblings to pass.

As I waited Neteyam pulled my face up to look at him and he smiled at me. "You are so strong and beautiful," he said looking between my eyes then all my features on my face.

"I literally look like no other Navi and have a green hint to my blue, but if you say so," I said smiling and joking.

"That's exactly why you're beautiful, you're unique in every way and not in a bad way, you are so stunning and everytime I look at you, my heart beats faster and I can't believe how much you have changed my life," he said still looking deeply into my eyes.

I softly smiled at him and looked down at my hands.

"And that, your genuine smile, I've missed it so much, it lights up my world to see you smile and mean it," he said making me look back to him by putting his hand on my chin sweetly.

"You're much more stunning than I am, and I love your smile. You are the light my world and you have changed my life far more than I could have ever changed yours, I am only who I am because of you," I said lovingly to him.

"Y/n! Neteyam!" We heard Lo'ak yell from a distance pulling us out of our moment which made me roll my eyes.

Neteyam and I looked down at ground and watched the siblings pass by looking for us. We stayed quiet not wanting to be bothered.

I looked back at Neteyam asking not to leave the tree yet. He gave me a look saying we should. Before we left i wanted to get one more good kiss.

Neteyam understood me looking at his lips as a sign and pulled me in. I kissed him a few times and loved every second of it until he pulled away.

We made our way out of the tree and wanted to sneak up behind the siblings but they were already out of sight.

"Where did they go?" I asked Neteyam and he just shrugged his shoulders at me.

"Maybe they thought we left and made their way back down," he said as we walked through the trees.

It took a while but we walked back and forth on the arch looking for them and calling out to them with no answer. We decided to go ahead and go down.

On the other side of the arch I looked down and saw giant leaves and looked to Neteyam. "You thinking what I'm thinking," I said smiling.

Neteyam smiled back at me and jumped first down. He gracefully caught himself on the leaves breaking his fall down.

When Neteyam landed he called out to me, "you're good to go," he yelled from the bottom.

I did the exact same thing he did landing between the leaves slowly making my way down to the ground.

As I made my way through the last leaf to the ground Neteyam caught me and smiled looking down holding me in his arms.

"My knight in shinning armor, what would I do without you," I said breathlessly and joking.

"I don't know my love," he smiled holding on to me.

I started laughing, "I think I save you more," I said to him.

"See but that's because I sacrifice myself for you and you pull me out of it," he said.

"Well I will always save you," I said still smiling.

We heard gun shots in the distance causing both our smiles to drop. We looked at each other and he started to set me down. We looked around waiting to hear them again.

As we heard more shots we were able to locate them and turn our heads.

"Lo'ak, you guys okay?" Neteyam asked through the mic.

As he was trying to contact his brother I took my bow off my shoulders and checked and arrow waiting to see movement.

Neteyam did the same with his bow.

"We're fine, we're on a different part of the mountain now, that was closer to you guys," he said

"You guys stay safe meet on the sixth island to the north," Neteyam said on the mic looking at me.

"Stay and kill them or make sure siblings are okay," I asked to Neteyam.

"I say we do as much damage as we can," he said smiling.

We broke off into two different parts of the trees and climbed into a tree parallel to each other. I signed to Neteyam that we should call our Ikrans to be ready and he agreed so that's what we did.

As the Ikrans landed we saw some more sky Navi on the ground tracing through the ground.

I pulled my arrow back and shot the one in the front right in the head. As I released my arrow Neteyam released his.

Then all hell broke loose with gun fire towards the trees. They didn't know where we were so they weren't aiming directly at us.

I checked another arrow and released it into another Navi and jumped onto iris calling out to Neteyam to tell him to go. I knew with our second shots they would be able to identify where we were.

I heard Neteyam call back out to me and we started to fly up into the sky away from the human Navi and to the other island.

While we were in the sky I flew closer catching up to Neteyam. He pointed to which island we were going to and I nodded to him.

"We're on our way, are you guys there?" I asked lo'ak.

"Yes ma'am," he said through the mic.

Neteyam and I came to the island and landed on it seeing the siblings. I jumped off my Ikran and ran over to Neteyam to hold his hand. I walked with Neteyam to the other siblings.

"You guys okay," Kiri asked us walking to us.

"Yes, more than okay," I said smiling. "Are you guys," I asked.

"Yeah, I'm so happy to see you guys," Tuk said running up to us and giving us a hug. "You're so cool y/n," she said looking up to me.
