Tommy walked out of the bio labs in his avatar and looked around "i can't believe i'm here" he looked at his hands "this is to great, i read about the Na'vi and this program..." he yelled out "THIS RULES SO MUCH!!!"
Tommy looked around as the others at hells gate stared at him "eh heh sorry kinda excited" as he brought his arms down tommy hit the dog tags on his neck, he looked at them and held them as a tears formed in his eyes and four words slipped from his mout "i miss you jane" he looked to the sky as he said that.
he snapped out of his thoughts when a basketball hit him on his foot and he saw a female avatar motioning to the ball, so tommy picked it up and walked over the her, "here ya go chica, mind if we play a little one on one? i need to practice controlling my avatar" she looked to him and spoke "the name is roxi and your on uh..." she paused and tommy spoke "my name is Tommy nice to meet ya Roxi and your going down"
Tommy took the ball and dunked the basket "game on chica" as he played a VALKYRIE airship landed far from him, meaning new recruits

Even though she just spent five years sleeping Jane still felt so tired, body and soul. To be honest she didn't want to be here, she never wanted to go to Pandora and abandon her planet to work for some company on another planet entirely. Sure on one level it was exciting but this wasn't a game, this was real life and Pandora was a dangerous place, she couldn't believe the RDA would send kids anyway...especially Tommy. Her Tommy. Her...friend, I guess you could say. But she liked him a lot more than that. A lot more, and she had five years to dream about meeting him again.
There was a whirlwind tour of do's and don't's as she was led to the area where she would be laying down to connect with her avatar that had been specially grown for her. She had seen it herself after getting out of cryosleep. For a ten-foot tall cat person it did kind of look like her, but she was still worried that Tommy wouldn't be able to recognize her or worse...that she wouldn't be able to recognize Tommy. But it was a little too late for that once she laid down in the coffin-like machine and the lid was closed. Jane closed her eyes and began to relax.
After the initial tests on her new avatar body she was allowed outside to try it out for a bit and get the hang of controlling her new body. Jane had been given clothing of course, seeing as her human clothes were way too small. When she was let outside she shyly headed towards the basketball court where most of the avatars seemed to be hanging out, and two were playing a game. She felt like she was at school again, the new kid who wasn't sure what to do to make friends or what to say to not seem like a total loser.

Tommy saw as another avatar walked out of the bio labs and headed towards the court but he couldn’t move he was stunned by how beautiful she was, Roxi threw the ball to him but it ended up bouncing off Tommy’s head “ow…” he glared at Roxi for doing that, she looked at him and apologized. Tommy threw the ball back to Roxi and said “your good Roxi, I want a rematch” she looked at him and nodded.
Tommy walked over to the other avatar and spoke to her “uh…. Hi” he began to blush and spoke again “my name is Tommy Salem, you new here?” he looked at the other avatar and waited a response

Jane could feel her avatar's face heating up when a handsome avatar approached her, the blush making her face turn slightly purple from the mix of red and blue. Crossing her arms self consciously before dropping them thanks to her avatar's breasts it felt strange to cross her arms, the same for her current human body after the five year cryosleep. So instead she thrust her hands into her pockets wondering if her hair looked okay before remembering that it wasn't even her real body. Grr! This was SO confusing! But as long as she could find Tommy...
...Speak of the devil. Jane stared at Tommy as he introduced himself. Now that he was getting closer it was easy to recognize him. She almost couldn't believe how easy that was. The man upstairs must have been on her side for once. It made her a little sad that Tommy didn't recognize her but then again she was a blue cat now. Jane resisted the urge to just tackle and hug Tommy on the spot. After a moment she realized that she was asked a question and she was just staring. Clearing her throat and smiling, her avatar tail waving she said, "Hi... Yeah, I am. I just defrosted." That was what everyone else seemed to say so she assumed that was the lingo for having just woken up from cryosleep. "My name is-" She ran through a list of fake names and said the first one that came to mind. "...Amanda." She didn't give a last name. "Nice to meet you, Tommy." She was glad that she had tucked the locket into her shirt before coming outside.

Tommy looked at Amanda and spoke “Amanda you say...Beautiful name, so you’re a newbie here huh?” he place his arm around her and spoke “stick with me and everything will run smoothly” he walked off from her stopped and gave her a thumbs and smiled “I’ll watch over ya.”
Tommy began walking again and yelled to Amanda “come on chica gotta keep up if you’re going to survive here, but nothing will happen to ya as long as I’m by your side and I will never leave it” he began to think to himself “I don’t know what it is but there is something to this girl that reminds me of Jane so much, it couldn’t be her she said she would never come to Pandora” he stopped and dropped to his knees crying and slammed his fist into the ground and spoke “damn it Jane, why didn’t you come with me, this place is as beautiful as you”

Her eyes almost began to tear up. This was Tommy, no doubt about it. "Th-Thank you." Hey, don't flirt with Amanda! I mean, me! Well I mean...flirt with me, but flirt with ME! she thought to herself with the whole 'beautiful name' and protection speech. Okay sure, she was the one who gave the fake name but still. Shaken from her thoughts she nodded and followed Tommy, she didn't know where he was going but she sure as hell wasn't going to let him leave her again. Jane was sticking to him like GLUE, GLUE I say! Jane took a surprised step back when Tommy suddenly fell to his knees. "Tommy?!" she said a little more panicked than she intended, but just watching him fall like that as if he were hurt made her own chest hurt. And then when she heard his words it hurt even more because now she knew she was the cause of emotional pain. She should have just told the truth to begin with.
Jane rushed over to where Tommy was and kneeled down beside him, still playing the part of clueless 'Amanda'. "What's wrong, Tommy?"

Tommy saw Amanda kneeling next to him asking what was wrong, he spoke up “old memories of… an old friend who I may never see again…. She didn’t even bother to see me off to Pandora” he paused and began to cry even more he looked her in the eyes and spoke up “you remind me of her Amanda like you were her… but that can’t be she would never come here, and I thought she wanted to be with me….” He cried again.
After a few minutes tommy stood up and walked off and saw Amanda kneeling still “come on I’ll show you where the avatars sleep, and so you can meet the others, you’ll like them, especially Rygen Sevaru he’s a legend to us.”

When Jane knelt the locket in her shirt slipped out, but she didn't notice. She was too busy feeling guilty. "I...I see." Her ears went flat with sadness. She had meant to see Tommy off, but in the end she was just too angry. Angry with Tommy, angry with herself because maybe if she was good enough he would have stayed instead of going to this STUPID planet for that STUPID avatar programme that she is now a part of. It took a lot for Jane to not say, 'I do wanna be with you, knucklehead. Why else would I come to this stupid planet just to find you?!' And when I say it took a lot, I mean it took a LOT.
'Amanda' got to her feet, brushing dust from her shorts before hurrying to catch up with Tommy and walk beside him, being careful to not whack him with her new avatar tail. Which still took some getting used to. She guessed that Na'vi were some kind of giant blue...cats. And here she always thought aliens would be little and grey, like in the movies or maybe like the ones in War of the Worlds. Not...cats. "Rygen Sevaru? What'd he do to be a legend?" There was a hint of scorn in her voice. She had nothing against this 'Rygen' personally, she was just grumpy being on Pandora.

Tommy explained about Rygen as they approached the barracks “you see Amanda, he stopped the RDA and Na’vi from going into another war by talking to one of the Jungle clan’s hunter Kimen’ek Tsamsiyu who spoke to the lead huntress... whose name I forget at the moment, but if it wasn’t for him this base wouldn’t be around anymore” within minutes tommy and Amanda reached the barracks.
Tommy stopped and face Amanda and saw the locket around her neck “hey that is really nice… may I see it?” Amanda took the locket off and handed it to Tommy “thanks, by the looks of it has pictures on the inside” Tommy opened the locket and saw the picture of him on side and Jane on the other “eh….. “ Tommy fell backwards and the locket flew up into the air and Amanda caught it and put it back on.
Tommy was on the ground stunned thinking to himself “no…. it can’t be…….”

I didn't even know they were in a first war... Jane didn't really know anything about Pandora at all. "Wow... He must be a hell of a negotiator to prevent a whole war..." If she met him later she would definitely take the time to see if she could learn the guy's style. "Oh-!" Jane's hand came up automatically to cover the locket. She hadn't even realized that it had come out of her shirt. Well...so much for keeping her identity a secret, she thought as Tommy asked to see the locket. Unclipping it from around her neck she let it drop into his hand. "Yeah...it does..." Two pictures, of a younger her and of Tommy himself.
"Tommy-!" She was surprised when he just fell over like that, the locket flew out of his hands. She managed to catch it and slipped the chain back on. The heart which was warmed by Tommy's hands nestled against her chest. Jane looked down at her feet, ashamed. "Um...yeah... I guess. You probably know by now. Um... My name isn't really Amanda."

Tommy’s eyes popped open and he spoke “yeah I get that now Jane, why didn’t you say it was you!!” he shot up and glared at her “I thought I would never see you again” Tommy was so excited to see Jane that he tackled her and hugged her tight as his tail fwipped around in the air.
He stood up and helped Jane up he started to blush but had an angry look on his face “Jane why didn’t you come with me when I left, or come to see me off I never stopped thinking about you even in cryo I dreamed of seeing you again” he looked at her awaiting an answer.

"Eh...surprise? EEK!" Jane let out a yelp when Tommy tackled her to the ground, hugging tightly. "Can't...breathe..." Though she didn't really mind, it was easy to tell from the purring in her chest. Wow, that was new. It just seemed to be doing it by itself, too. She had no idea how to make it stop...not that she minded too much. She took Tommy's hand to be helped to her feet. Jane's hand lingered in his before returning it to her side. "I didn't want to come, Tommy. And...it was just... I couldn't, okay? I couldn't just go there and watch you leave me."
Jane reached up and rubbed at the back of her neck with a sigh. "It took a while...but I finally decided...to hell with it! I'm not gonna stay on Earth for, I dunno, ten years without you or whatever! Forget that! So I marched up to the RDA office in our town and signed myself up. And well, here I am." Jane grinned, taking a step back and spreading her arms out. "What do you think, huh? Is blue my colour or what?" she joked. Even though she didn't really like this situation it was definitely worth it to be with her friend again.

Tommy looked at Jane and spoke “ok I trust you Jane, but it still hurt that you didn’t come I mean all the way here to Pandora times of you and I together was all I could think about….* he slammed his hand over his mouth after realizing what he just said and thought to himself “damn it… why did I say that to her… she’s going to think I’m an idiot now and well not like me or something like that”
He stood there amazed at what she said “so you came all the way here for me” he watched as she stepped back and asked what he thought “well of course blue is your color, looks good on you and I didn’t recognize you at first in your avatar Jane you look uh… cute” he blushed when he said that to her and awaited a response from Jane

"I'm sorry..." Jane sighed. She hoped Tommy could forgive her for what she did. "I was selfish." She bowed her head and her ears lowered sadly. Though she was thinking about what Thomas said. Did he really miss her that much? She felt guilty for it, but it kind of made her happy knowing that Tommy thought about her a lot when he left. "I did!" She looked back up, grinning. "Oh uh...thanks......you too..." Jane blushed, making her skin tint purple, she looked down at her feet.
"So um," she started shyly, "Have you made a lot of new friends yet? Or do they put you through too much work to make friends?" Jane still wasn't...exactly sure what her job was to be. Whatever it was she hoped she could work with Thomas. Jane still didn't like Pandora but being with her best friend would help a lot.

Tommy laughed when he heard jane ask about any new friends while on Pandora “nah not really, well there is one guy his name is uh…. Kai I believe hving trouble remembering, oh I’ve also befriended a local his name is Kimen’ek.
He walked to where he and jane would be working and stopped “well jane this is our station, you and I solely sleep and work here, I… spoke with the higher ups and asked….. for a female partner and they said I had to choose and I have” he then kissed her on the cheek and stood there “welcome to Pandora Jane”
