Siera's POV
I've always had the same dream for a while now, or better yet, nightmare. I mean, who knows what it really is. I blink my eyes as my vision clears slightly. It doesn't feel like six years ago I got on the ship that will take me out to Pandora. More like a sixth of tequila and an ass-kicking, mostly. But I'm still very curious about the dream. I open my eyes as I look up at the doctor floating over my head.

"Are we there yet?" I ask. The doctor nods, taking my hand as he unlocks me from my pod.

"Yeah, we're there sunshine." He says. I can still hear the agents in my head and what they said to me after my mother died.

Flashback

"It's about your mom," an agent says, pulling back a sheet to reveal my mother in a box. I sigh.

"When did this happen? Wasn't she supposed ta be shipping out in three days?" I ask, the Irish accent from my late Marine father heavy in my tone. The agent nods.

"Follow us, Miss Starling," one of them says. With another blink of my hazel gold eyes, I walk into the room with them as they cover up my mother's body. "There's a contract, and the pay is good if you want to recruit yourself up to your mother's level. After all, you're just like her and your father both." I roll my eyes and hiss in Irish,

"It doesn't matter. She's gone. She's not coming back." The agent blinks.

"It seems you've inherited your father's Irish accent." He says. I growl at him.

Flashback end

I look to see two other people reach for their things as they float to their lockers, then a doctor hands me my hearing aids. I sigh.

Here we go......I put them in, looking at the men at my side. I float to my locker and nod to the first man; a dark handsome male with dreadlocks. I give him a small grin. Once we land though, it will be different, I know that now. I had grown up on Earth hearing about Pandora, about everything about it basically. My mother had been a scientist in the Pandoran zoology while my father had been a Marine in the military. He met my mother when she was showing some of the fauna from Pandora that she had brought back. Unfortunately for her though, the animals could not live long on Earth and outside of Pandora, so she offered my father a deal: to come to Pandora every month to come and see her. My father had agreed, and they fell in love. Then I came along, and it was my mother who found out I was deaf, so I needed hearing aids throughout the entirety of my life basically. Then my mother left again for Pandora, leaving my father behind to look after me. He had known that one day I was gonna leave them behind and do something great, despite the fact no one in the military liked my mother, and they didn't like me that's for sure. I started learning more about the Na'vi language from my mother since she would argue with my father in that language plus the language of her people since she's half Navajo Indian and my father would be using Irish mixed with English and very broken Na'vi since he never got around to learning it as much as I did at a young age. That was around the time I met Grace Augustine. She was the embodiment of everything we ever stood for. I haven't seen Grace in years though, the last thing I remember from her before she had left was that she persuaded my father to give me a bracelet for my thirteenth birthday, and I never once took off the bracelet. If he were still alive and on Pandora, would he notice me again? Probably not.

We are now on board a Dragon flying in from the ship and landing on Pandora, not only that we'll be near the base. The RDA base known as Hell's Gate by most.

"Let's go, exo packs on!" The captain yells as he walks around us. I grab my emergency rebreather and put it on my face. Due to Pandora's toxic atmosphere, humans can't breathe here unlike on Earth. Sure it has most of what we need, gravity and such, but not the air we need to breathe however. "If you don't have that exo pack on, you're unconscious in thirty seconds, you're dead in four minutes! Let's not lose anyone today! Looks very bad on my report!" I press the button on the bottom of the rebreather to pressurize the air to let me breathe, before I sit back in my seat. I wait for the ramp to drop then turn and see the two men I saw earlier, one unfolding a yellow wheelchair, getting in it, then throwing the bag on his back before he starts wheeling himself off.

"Let's go, special cases!" The captain yells at us again as I snap out of whatever stupor I'm in before grabbing my bag and hefting it on my shoulder. I walk out, my military issued combat boots hitting the pavement as I walk down the ramp towards Hell's Gate. A large yellow vehicle moves past me, so I stop and admire it for a second as I watch it, noticing arrows in the wheels. I'm actually kind of curious about it, but I shake my head. I then hear a Marine say,

"Look, man. Meals on wheels." I turn and see that the man in the wheelchair has wheeled up at my side.

"Name's Siera Starling," I say, my Irish accent thick as ever. "Yah are?" He holds out his hand, taking mine.

"Jake Sully," he says. "This is Alex Maverick." He points to the man at his side and he gives me a smile. I nod to Alex as a greeting, though my heart says otherwise.

"Nice ta meet ya," I say. "Who are ya here for?"

"My brother."

"My father, you?"

I hum and answer them both, "ma mother. She used ta tell me 'bout Pandora." Alex nods.

"And now you're here. Did you grow up hearing about this place?" He asks. I nod.

"Aye, I did." I blink my eyes and look ahead as we walk inside Hell's Gate.
