| Jinora | Gran Gran, I've been reading all about your old adventures. I've been dying to ask you, what happened to Zuko's mom? | |
| Katara |
|
Well Jinora, its an incredible tale... |
| Ikki | GRAN GRAN! you look old. How old are you? And why is it so cold in the South Pole? Can we make a campfire, and all huddle around it, and tell scary stories, and make snowmen? And then can you make the snowmen move with waterbending and chase us? Wouldn't that be fun? Huh! Wouldn't it? |
| Toph Bei Fong | Look here, Sugar Queen! I gave up everything so that I could teach Aang Earthbending, so don't you talk to me about being selfish! | |
| Katara |
|
Sugar Queen? |

Water, Earth, Fire, Air. My grandmother used to tell me stories about the old days, a time of peace when the Avatar kept balance between the Water Tribes, Earth Kingdom, Fire Nation, and Air Nomads. But that all changed when the Fire Nation attacked. Only the Avatar mastered all four elements. Only he could stop the ruthless firebenders. But when the world needed him most, he vanished. A hundred years have passed and the Fire Nation is nearing victory in the war. Two years ago, my father and the men of my tribe journeyed to the Earth Kingdom to help fight against the Fire Nation, leaving me and my brother to look after our tribe. Some people believe that the Avatar was never reborn into the Air Nomads and that the cycle is broken, but I haven't lost hope. I still believe that somehow the Avatar will return to save the world. |

Water, Earth, Fire, Air. Long ago the four nations lived together in harmony. Then everything changed when the Fire Nation attacked. Only the Avatar, master of all four elements could stop them. But when the world needed him most, he vanished. A hundred years passed and my brother and I discovered the new Avatar, an Airbender named Aang. And although his Airbending skills are great, he has a lot to learn before he's ready to save anyone. But I believe Aang can save the world. |
| Toph Bei Fong |
|
What are you doing here, Twinkle Toes? |
| Aang |
|
How did you know it was me? |
| Sokka |
|
Don't answer to Twinkle Toes, it's not manly! |
| Katara |
|
You're the one whose bag matches his belt! |
| Toph Bei Fong |
|
Who's Zuko? |
| Sokka |
|
Just some angry freak with a ponytail who's tracked us all over the world. |
| Katara |
|
What's wrong with ponytails, Ponytail? |
| Sokka |
|
This is a warrior's wolf-tail. |
| Katara |
|
Well it certainly tells the other warriors that you're fun and perky. |
| Katara |
|
What is that? |
| Toph Bei Fong |
|
What? What's what? |
| Sokka |
|
It's a giant mushroom... maybe it's friendly! |
| Katara |
|
Let's just keep moving. I hope Aang's okay. |
| Sokka |
|
Friendly mushroom!! Mushy giant friend! |
| Katara |
|
Well then, what's this? |
| Toph Bei Fong |
|
I don't know! I mean, seriously, what's with you people?! I'm blind! |
| Sokka |
|
I'm gonna send a note to Katara and say it's from Toph, who wants to apologize. Then everyone will be friends again! |
| Aang |
|
I gotta say, Sokka, you continue to impress me with your ideas! |
| Sokka |
|
Eh, it's a gift. "Dear Katara, sorry for everything. Your friend, Toph." |
| Katara |
|
...I know this is from you, Sokka! Toph can't write! Ugh, you're all driving me crazy! |
| Aang |
|
I can't believe we forgot Toph can't write! |
| Sokka |
|
Yep, we're idiots. |
| Aang |
|
I guess plan B is we send a note to Toph, pretending it's from Katara. |
| Sokka |
|
I think we're gonna run into a similar problem. |
| Katara |
|
Relax, Aang. They're not accurate portrayals. It's not like I'm a preachy crybaby who can't resist giving over-emotional speeches about hope all the time. ...What? |
| Katara |
|
Get over here, Zuko. Being part of the group also means being part of group hugs. |
