Into the New World
Sweating heavily Aang wakes up from a nightmare that he is all too familiar with.
"Niwa? ... Jake Sully?" murmurs the the Avatar.
Five long years has passed after Avatar Aang saved the world from Sozens comet and unified all four nations into peace and harmony. Now he's all grown up and is about to face another impossible task.
Throwing away his blanket in a rush, he walks out to the open balcony to get some fresh air.
Outside Aang could see the towering walls of Ba-Sing-Se, the capital of the Earth Kingdom which only 5 years ago was a fierce battlefield.
"Ugh.. What is this dream trying to tell me..?" Confused Aang decides to leave and meet the only person that could possibly help him..
Gliding through the air, Aang feels the warm breeze comforting him and calming him down.
Finally after a good hour of flying he arrives.
Slowly descending from his flight he could see what looked like a small island floating in the water, but only the Avatar knew that this large 'thing' wasn't an island. But rather a Lionturtle.
The Lionturtle was a large ancient creature with the head of a lion but with a turtle-like body. He had existed before the era of the Avatar and possessed immense wisdom and power.
Just as Aang had reached the water a giant paw had gently come up to catch him. Although it was only his second time meeting the Lionturtle he was still left with awe.
The Avatar going back to his monk roots, bowed to the creature with both fists together.
"Hello Master"
"What brings you here, Avatar?" the Lionturtle asks.
"I've come here to ask if you could help me... I have been having the same dreams for weeks, the same damn ones..." the Avatar vents out with frustration, "I hear whispers.. something called Niwa, and a name.. Jake... Jake Sully"
The ancient creature closed his eyes.
After a moment of silence Aang went into a state of shock. The Lionturtle was looking into his mind...
"It was wise of you to have come to me Avatar" there was a faint sound of emotion in his voice. "So this was your plan after all Eywa...".
"Wha.. What!?.." Aang still in the state of shock could barely talk..
"Fine" muttered the Lionturtle. "I'll send this boy to your world, but from here on out he is your responsibility".
From his paw a bright light began to appear. The light was getting bigger and bigger until it covered the whole of Aang's body, and then disappeared along with the Avatar.
"Wake up" whispered a voice "Wake up".
Aang's eyes slowly began to open, surprised by his surroundings he quickly raised himself from the ground using his air bending.
Panicking Aang began to phase around where he had just woken up.
'Where am I?" he thought. Around him were plants he had never seen before and saw trees that was as high as the walls of Ba-Sing-Se.
Walking around aimlessly Aang finally realizes that the sun is about to go down.
"Shoot I need to find shelter quick" he said to himself, only realizing later how stupid he was.
"Oh, that's right I can just make a shelter" he said with a childish grin.
Using his earth bending he formed a large cave and set up a fire and began to go over what had happened.
Two years had past since the RDA led by the humans left Pandora. Jake Sully had become the new chieftain of the Omaticaya clan although he was a hybrid form the Na'Vi they did not disagree with his title.
Running in the black night Jake throws his spear at a retreating dog. Hitting it straight in the heart. The dog felt no pain.
Slowly picking up the corpse Jake whispers "Thank you and sorry". Puts the corpse in his pouch and walks back.
Not too far from arriving in the village Jake spots something unusual, a faint light from what looked like a cave.
"What are those rascals doing again" thought Jake, as there were a couple of young Na'Vi's staying out till dark only to be found by the chieftain and scolded back to the village.
Jake knows.. He knows how dangerous the dark can be with predators lurking for their prey.
Finally he had arrived to where the light was. As he was walked into the cave he couldn't believe what he was seeing. A young man with arrow shaped tattoo's on his body.
"Who are you!" hissed Jake, grabbing his spear and pointing it at Aang. There was no hesitation from Jake, he had done this all too often.
Aang could not believe what he was seeing, in-front of him was a tall blue coloured creature pointing a spear at him.
Sensing danger Aang immediately created a gush of wind towards the creature shoving him back to a wall.
Winded the blue figure was gasping for breath and probably startled by what he had just saw, the man just controlled the air!
"My name is Aang" he replied "I am looking for someone named Jake Sully".
Jake cautiously muttered "The person your looking for is right in front of you".
