In a small town, there are cries heard on the stoops of Gyatso's home, a 52 year old man who frequently spoke with the gods, little did he know, two of them were coming to ask him to do a favor.

As, Gyasto moved out of his bed to see what was going on, when he opened his door only to see a young baby swaddled in gold linen.

"Oh, who would leave a child out like this?"

He picked up the child, careful of his head, and tickled him. As the child giggled, the earth shook, rather violently. When he stopped, the earth was still again.

"That's strange."

"Not really." The wind whispered.

Gyasto looked around curiously, until his eyes rested upon the God of Air and the Goddess of Peace.

"Lady Eirene, Lord Aeolos," Gyasto kneeled in respect. "It is an honor to be in your presence."

"Gyasto, rise." Eirene began "You know very well you are a very close friend to the Gods, you do not have to address us this way."

Gyasto chuckled "I know, but I believe that you deserve the utmost respect. I also heard you have borne a child, A child of the Gods."

Both Eirene and Aeolos nodded.

"So where is he or she?"

"He," Aeolos chortled "Is in your arms"

Gyatso's eyes widened "This is…"

"Aang." Eirene finished for him

"So, why…"

Eirene looked at Aeolos, asking him to explain.

"We want Aang to have a normal life, to have friends, to know the modern world. All of which he can't have on Mount Olympus."

"So we are asking if you could watch over him, until he is seventeen years of age, so he could train to be a true god." Eirene added

Gyasto was bewildered, but he did not question the gods. "I accept."

Eirene and Aeolos smiled.

"Thank you."

"Before we go" Eirene stated "Poseidon and Amphitrite are going to do the same as we did only with your neighbors, Kya and Hakoda. They have a child, The child of the seas, her name is Katara. We, along with Poseidon and Amphitrite, agreed to keep the two of them together."

"Yes, my lady."

Eirene took Aang from Gyasto and kissed his forehead. He sighed contently as a light breeze started up. Eirene giggled "Goodbye, my son."

Aeolos caressed his son's face "See you in seventeen years."

And they left, leaving Gyasto to stand there, to watch over the Child of the Gods.


A few moments later, Poseidon and Amphitrite, were on the doorsteps of Kya and Hakoda (a/n: sorry Sokka lovers, I'm not gonna put Sokka in this one and if I did I wouldn't know how) with their daughter, explaining how they want her to have normal life, until she is seventeen years of age and they want her to stick by Aang.

Kya looked at Hakoda "We accept."

Poseidon and Amphitrite said their farewells to their daughter, showering her with kisses before handing her over to her mortal guardians.

And they left, with the Child of the Seas in the arms of Kya and Hakoda.

The skies cried, the wind howled, the ocean boiled and crashed against the waves and shore, the crime rate was higher in that town than ever.


"Oh, isn't that sad?" Eris sneered

"The parents of the most powerful children ever gave them up so they can have a 'normal' life and their sad." Eris pouted her lips "Boo-hoo, poor babies. Time to plan a little mischief and it'll be much easier now that I gave that brat the gift of mischievousness."

She cackles evilly and disappears into the night.

Uh-oh what's Eris planning, what does Katara and Aang have to do with it. Five reviews=chapter.
