Explanation

To bury the hatchet is an idiom meaning to make peace and end a conflict or quarrel. The phrase comes from Native American tradition of literally burying weapons. 'To make peace' correctly captures this meaning. 'To kill', 'To crimate' (typo for 'create'? unclear), and 'To avoid' don't match.
