Character story
Being a marine in the past, Jake Sally never ran away from problems and was not afraid of danger. But at some point, everything changed a lot. At that moment, Sally became an invalid who was forced to move around on an armchair. Leg paralysis did not allow Jack not only to continue his career in the Marine Corps, but even to work from home.
Apathy and unwillingness to do anything only intensified when his twin brother, a scientist working, dies. For a long time, Jake's brother was engaged in some mysterious research, which was supposed to shock the whole world. Jake did not understand what was going on in the laboratories, and did not delve into it. But now, when his brother died unexpectedly, scientists turn to him for help.
Participation in the experiment
The main argument for Jake Sally is money. Scientists offering him to take part in the experiment offer a good reward. Tormented without movement, Sally is ready to go to great lengths to regain the ability to move in at least another body. Therefore, not understanding what he is getting involved in, the former marine takes risks and agrees. But the operation to relocate to the avatar is not as simple as the main character imagined.
New world
Sally is surprised by a new strange world called Pandora, which he could not even suspect about before. And, unlike many other military men, he is not afraid of this world. So, during one of the first visits there, the hero suddenly encounters small predators. He manifests himself as a real fighter, able to defend himself. On Pandora, Jake Sally is always lucky.
In a world unfamiliar to him, he meets a local resident Neytiri. The authorities require Sally to collect information and work as a scout on enemy territory. But Jake himself is not yet convinced that the local population are real enemies. As a military man, he knows how to carry out orders. But this is far from always to their liking.
The love of the protagonist and a difficult choice
Soon, the relationship of Jake and his new friend grow from friendship to love. Sally falls in love with the beautiful Neytiri, and she reciprocates. But the fact that he tells everything about the life of the inhabitants of Pandora on Earth seems to him a betrayal. Soon everyone else in the clan will find out about this, and Pandora’s world will be engulfed in war. Knowing full well that for the sake of his love for Neurity, he is ready to do anything, the protagonist decides to abandon his past life. He is not ready to return to the stroller by a man who can never live a normal life.
A happy ending
As always in his life, Jake continues to fight. He does everything in order to regain the trust of his beloved and her relatives, saves their world and abandons the human past. After such a big change in her life, Sally finally feels happy and free. The main character becomes the leader of the clan and forever says goodbye to human life, becoming an avatar.
