Accidentally in love ─ Neteyam x OC !!

The sun rose as bright as always in the Metkayina's clan area. No sounds or voices were heard at this time, that was the perfect way to start a nice day without it being the worse since the beginning.

Tsu'kida stretched her arms as she woke up and got down from her swing. She looked into the horizon, seeing a really nice and without clouds sunrise, with its characteristics orange and purple tones only seen in Pandora.
She went out of her small tent, appreciating her surroundings, and grabbed some fruits on her way to the beach near her home.
When she arrived she calmly ate them and shared a bit with some Ilus that always were around at that time, waiting for her to arrive as always. She then braided the upper part of her hair, getting it out of her face, and placed her tiara of seaweeds and small seashells that she made when she was little. She started walking into the water and asked one of the Ilus if she could ride them, when it accepted she gave it quick smile and made the link.
Shortly after she was riding faster than ever, enjoying the moment as if it was the last time she would be able to do this.
The Metkayina spent almost an hour going all around the island, jumping in and out of the water over and over again, grabbing small minerals and seashells that she found at the bottom of the waters, sharing a nice time with the Ilu that accepted to be hers for this short amount of time.
Out of nowhere she heard someone calling her name in the island. Then some other voices joined, clearly high-pitched ones. She made her way back to the beach, being received by some kids from the Metkayina clan. They all ran to her and gave her a tight hug like they did everyday, and started making tons of questions of what she had found today. Tsu'kida showed them all the seashells and minerals she had brought with her , gifting the kids some of them and telling them to keep them for tomorrow, since she would teach them how to make some accesories for them to use.

Tsu'kida told all the kids to follow her, bringing them back to the main area of the Metkayina clan. She was received by others in a dry way, something not surprising for her since it had happened like that everyday since her parents left the clan. The kids started pulling her over the port and told her to call some Ilus for them to play with, and so she did. She wasn't happy with the clan treating her the way they did, but at least she had the kids and sea creatures to get distracted from all of that.
The Metkayina was seating on the edge of the port, watching the kids play with the Ilus and fail trying to ride them. The Ilus started throwing water at the kids and they returned it, starting a small water war they were clearly going to loose. Out of nowhere the cornet sounded all around the place, making everyone worried as it wasn't normal for it to be used unless other clans were visiting.

Tsu'kida looked to the waters, not seeing anyone coming out from them, and then saw the reason why the cornet was used. Five Ikrans were making their way to where all the Metkayina's were standing, looking at them with worried and scared looks.
Tonowari appeared as soon as the visitors landed, giving them a warm welcome and asking the reason for their visit.
Tsu'kida couldn't hear anything from where she was standing, so she got into the water and swam fast to the beach near them, not even trying to get into the crowd knowing they would get her out.
She heard the strangers ask for Uturu, and after some talking and discussing between Tonowari and Ronal it was accepted. The Metkayina's were told to welcome them and teach them our traditions, some of them stared with funny looks as they saw they were from the forests clans and didn't know anything. They all introduced eachother, Tsireya started showing them around and making her way to the family's new place.
One of the strangers looked straight into Tsu'kida's eyes as they were walking, sending her shivers all over her body. She noticed he was around her age, fully braided hair tucked behind his ears, a wide choker around his neck and a small vest around his chest. She felt as if he had stared straight into her soul with his big round yellow eyes.
She saw him start smiling, moving his thin tail side to side in an excited way, as he noticed she was also staring. He suddenly tripped, making Tsu'kida laugh softly, and seconds after he started running back to his family with his ears down, as he had been left a bit behind without him noticing.

Tsu'kida didn't give this moment much importance, since she suddenly got grabbed by her arm and pulled back into the water, getting involved in another water war the kids had just started.

The day passed quickly. She spent most of it playing with the kids just like she always did, and seeing how the Sully's started to learn the Metkayina traditions. She watched the teenagers try to swim with Tsireya, Aonung and Rotxo, and had to hold her laugh every time they had to go out of the water to get some air, they were too harsh on them for it being their first time but she couldn't say anything since she wasn't with them.

⌠────────❀────────⌡

The sun started to go down, indicating it was time for her to go back to the small tent she called her home at the outskirts of the clan. She grabbed again some fruits on the way back and stopped by a Metkayina that sold some fresh fish.
When she arrived, she left the fruits inside her tent and went to the beach to feed the Ilus. She called them and shortly after a big group of them arrived, they seemed surprisingly happier than other days. Tsu'kida got into the water with them and calmly fed them the fish, asking them how was their day. They all told her a group of new teenagers tried to learn how to ride them and that it made them really happy since they had never seen Na'vis from the forest.

She spent some time with those Ilus and then prepared everything for the next day, since she was going to teach the kids how to make seaweed accesories like the one she always used, just as she had promised she would.
Tsu'kida got her seaweed tiara on her small bag and brushed her hair carefully, while she watched the sun go down and the view get darker. She ate some of the fruits she had brought and finally got back into her comfortable swing, falling asleep in no time due to her tiredness.
