The earth is cool beneath their skin, chilled by the caress of the wind on this distant mountaintop, though neither were cold. Orange robes flutter in the stirring of the air revealing pale legs streaked with blue. Armored green garments slipped aside, a perfectly painted cheek caresses against a pale breast. Makeup smeared, hair was grabbed and limbs entwined as the two powerful women came together.

Young Aang woke with a start, his breathing heavy and an uncomfortable sensation down there. Monk Gyasto had explained to him that it was normal to have such strange dreams at his age. That it was all part of growing up. But who were these strange women? The first was a calm and gentle air master, her wise eyes radiating intelligence and peace. The second was a strong earthbending warrior, power and confidence in all her movements. Why couldn't he just be normal like the other kids?

Aang sighed and changed his clothes, then slipped back into bed to catch a few more hours of sleep before morning meditation. Gyasto told him not to be late because there was something important they needed to discuss. But all he could think about is white and red makeup smeared across a blue tattoo'd shoulder.
