ANOTHER DAY -- NEYTIRI kneels on a game trail, pointing out the tracks in the mud to Jake. She touches the edges of the plants around her, and sniffs the air.
>> 阿凡达 Avatar Movie Script

As Grace powers up the Link equipment, Jake stops to look at STEREO STILL PICTURES which are taped and tacked up around her workstation.
>> 阿凡达 Avatar Movie Script

She sighs in agreement. Tsu'tey and the other hunter wheel their horses around and THUNDER OFF into the woods.
>> 阿凡达 Avatar Movie Script

The horse LAUNCHES into a GALLOP. Jake flops around, with no idea how to sit the animal, and is promptly THROWN OFF. He lands painfully in the mud.
>> 阿凡达 Avatar Movie Script

He looks around, blinking. Reality crashing in.
>> 阿凡达 Avatar Movie Script

Jake lies awake in a hammock, people rustling in the darkness around him. Neytiri is nearby, curled up like a little girl.
>> 阿凡达 Avatar Movie Script

The villagers stare silently as the Matriarch circles slowly around Jake, examining his tail and the end of his queue.
>> 阿凡达 Avatar Movie Script

JAKE hears WHOOSH-WHOOSH and snaps a look as a BOLO flies at him, spinning end for end and -- SHWHAP!! -- tangles around his legs. He topples off the root and crashes into the foliage below.
>> 阿凡达 Avatar Movie Script

More woodsprites gather around him. Several ALIGHT on him.
>> 阿凡达 Avatar Movie Script

NEYTIRI, sensing a presence, looks up to see -- The WOODSPRITES, PULSING with purpose, float right towards Jake. They dance gently around his shoulders and head.
>> 阿凡达 Avatar Movie Script

Jake blinks around at the darkness -- realizing he can still see. In fact, with the blinding torchlight gone, the forest is transformed.
>> 阿凡达 Avatar Movie Script

TIME CUT -- TIGHT ON Jake's hands as he knots his T-shirt around the butt end of the spear.
>> 阿凡达 Avatar Movie Script

Jake BOLTS as -- The thanator LEAPS after him and -- Jake launches himself between two large trunks, forcing the beast to claw its way around to the side while -- Jake scrambles up -- around -- over a tangle of roots and -- SK-RASH!! CLAWS SLASH the air behind him, EXPLODING bark off a trunk as -- JAKE wills himself forward in a frenzy. With rippling muscle the beast is airborne again, blacking out the sun but -- JAKE dives under a massive root system, and -- CRASH! Kindling rains around him as the beast tears into the root-trunks above him. Claws SLASH down next to him as he rolls and crawls -- Glistening jaws SMASH and SNAP against the barrier trunks, sending chunks of wood flying. It's spittle sprays across Jake, jaws inches away as -- He rolls onto his back, and FIRES his AR point blank but the rifle is SNATCHED out of his hands. The beast SCREECHES an ungodly WAIL of pain and rage and -- RIPS the ENTIRE TRUNK away. Jake scrambles to escape but -- GLISTENING JAWS lunge downward, SNAP SHUT and -- The creature rips Jake out of the tree, shaking him like a junkyard dog with a rabbit, only -- 34.
>> 阿凡达 Avatar Movie Script

The bull wheels around, TRUMPETING in fear, and CRASHES away through splintering undergrowth.
>> 阿凡达 Avatar Movie Script

TRACKING WITH JAKE as he moves through the foliage, hyper- alert -- looking around like a tourist in Hell.A monkey-like PROLEMURIS leaping from limb to limb overhead, flashing through the sunlight streaming down in shafts.
>> 阿凡达 Avatar Movie Script

Jake, isolated from the conversations around him, notices -- PILOT TRUDY CHACON approaching, dressed in her flight suit.
>> 阿凡达 Avatar Movie Script

INT. COMMISSARY - EARLY MORNING JAKE sits with GRACE, NORM and the other avatar "drivers", while around them miners, troopers and other base personnel wolf their breakfasts. Grace is engaged in a heated conversation with another SCIENTIST.
>> 阿凡达 Avatar Movie Script

Around him the other avatars are bedding down for the night, pulling insect netting around their cots. In one hand, Jake holds the end of his long braided QUEUE of hair.
>> 阿凡达 Avatar Movie Script

Nearby, a couple of AVATARS are playing one-on-one in front of a (non-regulation height) basketball net. Others go about their daily activities around the compound.
>> 阿凡达 Avatar Movie Script

He sees something like a blue tentacle curl across his arm and he JERKS AROUND in alarm. HIS TAIL.
>> 阿凡达 Avatar Movie Script

A TECH scurries to bring it to her, already lit. Around here they jump when Grace barks.
>> 阿凡达 Avatar Movie Script

(looks around) Never been in a lab before.
