Chapter 5 - Avatar Part 1

Waking up in the jungle was surprising for most of them. Turles adapted quickly thanks to the abilities he had coupled with the gear. The memories were not that bad since they were a small amount. Giving them a history that the others could pick up.

Traveling, surviving, fighting a few clans they ran into. The twins were having trouble at their new height. Each of them were at least 10 feet tall.

"Move about to get use to it." Marcel jumped up an around. Testing his Ki. 'An entire set of memories about this place. But nothing to extraordinary. The Operator didn't waste a lot of time weaving detail for this one. But it is still impressive.' The others started doing the same. "The gravity here sucks ass. Alright, lots of beasties to kill for resources. This planet has a weird energy. Should help us for a Tree of Might in no time."

"This Unobtanium will serve well." CaCao stated. On his wrist, a scanner appeared. He was decked out in armor still. Just was removable. "I would like to acquire some for personal study. Separate from what will go in storage."

"Us to. Us to." Rasin said eagerly. Both he and his brother looking over the info over CaCao's shoulder. Something they could never do previously. Way to short to look over anyone's shoulder. "A superconductive metal! Nice! Nice!"

"I wanted to go and capture a few of these beasts. Specifically the Hammerhead Titan." Amon said with interest. "It says Hammerhead Titanothere, these blue monkey's call them ''Angtsìk," it is approximately eleven meters long, which is almost twice the size of the earth elephant. Oh, man! It has six-legs! I didn't notice that from the picture." His excitement was growing."

"Diaz, see anything interesting?" Marcel floated down staring at the quiet prince. "You want something else instead to do?"

"I will.. collect. Veperwolves. They look like something that will work great as an attack team." Diaz flipped the screen over showing the Six legged jackal/wolf hybrids. "The hunting tactics and pack mentality is perfect for the way I want to do things in the future."

"I will go for the Thanator after getting some of the metal." CaCao stated. The flying beast looked like a pterodactyl had fairly decent air superiroty. "A flock of them will work wonders."

"Coordinate well. You have free reign on the means to get things accomplish. After you finish a certain amount of quests of course." Marcel floated up some more. His scouter reappearing thanks to his Replicator abilities. "We will be here for a few weeks. Let us get more than enough for the future."

"Yeah!" The others cheered happily before shooting off in various directions. Marcel looked over the unbelievable quest he received.

System: Quest- Plant two Tree of Might, Wipe out all forces that threaten you, Gain Samples of Resources Development Administration, or RDA Technolgy, Acquire Avatar Research.

Rewards: Increase in power of artificial creations, Saibaman are more resilient and have base intelligence, Manifestation of Organic material requires less energy. Failure: Destruction of specimens in lab, Saibamen turn into regular Saibamen.

"Hmm, well that just beats all!" Marcel flew higher up and gathered his Ki. "Raaah!" It would be awhile before he could just do it with absolute ease. It still took effort.

System: Power Up Check 24 Pass

*Woosh!* The energy trail was thin as he fired off fast. Heading to the best spot for the Tree of Might. Killing whatever decided to come his way. His thoughts on the first and last one. They had the worse outcomes of failure.

'Perfect time to get use to flying more. Aerial maneuvers in more open space.' Marcels tarted to do loops and barrel rolls. He also kept sending to various parts of his body. 'That is the hardest to do in this environment. Then again, this body is so different. The way things work is absolutely mindboggling. This body looks like Turles if he was a Na'vi. Will I be able to remember my own face when this is all over?'

Zi: I.. can not answer that. But a strong will power will help with that. You are a strange User. Most start to worry about family first.

'All of them are dead I think.' Marcel thought through the link. 'As far as I know. Some moved to Terraform Pluto. Do not really know really. Was to busy liven my life while unwinding. So many books and shows to watch.'

Zi: Even with the data the other Operators gave you, I am more worried about what you do not know. As well as what I do not know. My studies cover from 1300 - 2020 of Earth. Which is a lot but still..

'Do you have time to study now?' Marcel was understanding of several of the points from the ar at this point.

Zi: I do but, well I am supposed to monitor you as you do things. And provide support as best I can.

'You are no good burnt out and stressed out.' Marcel shot higher sensing a few Na'Vi in the distance. That or maybe people. Still needed to get use to that. 'I will do my best to accomplish my goals. Just need to get my bearings some.'

Zi: Vey well. I will try.

Plant Zone One-

.

Marcel created 5 Dark Saibamen. He was suprised when they appeared as humans. Just coal black eyes. It cost 20,000 energy and a few spell slots to make sure they were full-grown right now. Each of them had a power level of 2,000.

The orders were for them to defend the area. They nodded and moved to key spots as Marcel dropped the first seed. It looked like a living grenade almost with the veins and everything.

*Woop!* As the seed descended, it made a whistling sound in the hole. Marcel created regular water to drop on just to see what happens.

*Sprout!* The seed burst free so fast, Marcel was knocked away by the force it created.

"Geez.. this is a ridiculous growth rate." Marcel floated away to meditate. Replenishing his energy seemed like a good idea. He made sure to equip a battle clothing as well. It was dark black looked a bit like Master Roshi's attire. "Hehe, might as well mess around with clothing. Maybe Pikkon's set next time."

"Us." The closes Saibman called. With a stretch, Marcel did the same for them. "Thanks." The smile was slightly feral. But nothing to worry about for now.

Time went by slowly at first. But as the tree grew in size and maturity it wouldn't be long before someone came by. A few beasts came sniffing about, but the Saibamen took care of it no problem. The meat from the remains was placed in the front in a large cooler Marcel made. No need to waste all that meat.

*Vrooom!* The sound of AT-99 "Scorpion" Gunship could be heard. There was more than one present by furthur sounds coming.

The Saibamen moved to intercept. Marcel flew over with them. To say the forces were bothered is an understatement. The first time they have seen flying humans and a flying Na'vi before. Let alone dressed like Chinese martial artists.

"This is Corporal Lyle Wainfleet, identify yourself!" The mercenary said over the speaker system.

"Hi, I am .. well know one to you really. This is my spot and my tree." Marcel said smirking. 'Lets see.. I am in a different World. So its rules apply. Guns hurt.. Meaning the bullets and missiles will hurt if I run out of Ki. So.. hands for days then.' Looking at the uncomfortable mercenaries, he decided to help them a little. "Call me Trouble if you want. A little advice to keep you guys alive and your superiors happy."

"And what is that?" The Corporal showed way more control than Marcel thought he would. Most likely because of the flying maybe.

"The guy Jake Sully, he is spending time with the Na'vi a lot more lately. Don'tcha think?"

"Yeah. How do you know?" Corporal Lyle had his hand on a trigger while another mercenary tried to get in touch with HQ. But interference was coming from the Tree of Might's energy absorption.

"He is starting to fall for the "native" way. The Na'vi way of life is to much for the broken man. They have everything he wants. A little piece of ass and his legs back." Marcel smile broaden seeing the mercenaries faces change. "I have seen it with my own eyes. Things like this happening before. He looks so happy compared to what I have seen of your base."

"Been watching us long?" The Corporal was on edge after hearing that. So were the others by the looks of it.

"Long enough. Do yourself a favor, gather more troops if you plan on getting the metal you want. If not.. well.." His voice slightly taunting. "..You are going to lose. Badly. The old colonel is at the age where pride trumps reason."

System: Persuasion Check 19 Neutral

"We will take that under advisement." With a hand signal, they start to pull away. "See you around.. Trouble." Corporal Lyle waved pulling away. His thoughts tight lipped as they flew back. They were a long way from base. They only came because they spotted a tree that was not marked previously. 'If that monkey words were even half true, then we need to change things up.'

"Hehehe! Hot damn!" Marcel laughed as he floated on his back. His tail swishing about loosely. He wanted to see them fight it out more. That way he could just pick up the things he want himself. Of course, that didn't mean he wouldn't still attack. "Ah what a delicious little outcome if they bring in reinforcements from the neighboring area. More tech for me."

Once his energy was fully replenished, Marcel made 5 more Saibmen and dressed them in gray to tell them apart from the others. They were to guard with the others and move in twos when ever in pursuit and clearing the area.

A small hut was made in the area for the Saibamen to sleep. They did get tired and would need to rest to replenish their Ki. Two more freezers were made as well as a large container of water. He was out of spell slots after creating all that.

Wanting to take a nap was interrupted however. "Another quest?" Marcel already shot off in a straight line while reading it.

System: Explore the area on foot. Get in touch with Primal instincts more. Rewards: Vary

-RDA HQ-

It was hours later when they made it back. Corporal Lyle went straight to the Colonel. The grizzly angry Marine was looking over maps. All around people busied themselves looking over information.

Colonel Quaritch turned to look at Lyle with a frown. "You are late. What happened out there? An ambush or something?"

"No. We encountered.." Lyle moved close. "..we encountered one of them. But a really strange one that said some very damaging things to the mission."

"What kind of damaging things?" Colonel Quaritch brow furrowed. A frown on his face that would turn perpetual in the coming weeks. More so than it had lately. 'Another problem. Just great!'
