Alright like I said, will have a lot of similarities but a lot will be different. And since most of you have seen the show, I will skip a lot of the adventures at the beginning and just write about the one that matter to the story.

Don't forget to review.

Well, back to the story!

Chapter 2

Sokka and Katara stared in awe as the bright light continued to shine to the sky. Moments later, the light died down and there stood what looked to be a boy on top of the iceberg. He was pretty short, looked about 12 years old, was wearing robes, and had blue tattoos on his arms and a big blue arrow on his head. The boy wobbled over, then collapsed and his body rolled down the ice to where Sokka and Katara stood. Instinctively, Katara moved to help the boy while Sokka grabbed her arm.

"What do you think you're doing?" Sokka asked her.

"He's hurt Sokka! We need to help him!"

"Oh yeah! Let's help the kid who we just found in an iceberg! For all we know, he could fire nation! He could have been sent to wipe out what is left of our village!"

"Oh Sokka, listen to yourself! He's like 12! I doubt the Fire Nation would send a little kid like that to destroy us." Katara replied.

"Better safe than sorry Katara, I say we just dump him back in the water before he wakes up. Besides, he was probably comfortable in there before we disturbed him." Sokka had already grabbed hold of the boy's robes and dragged him towards the water.

"Sokka, stop being stupid! We're helping him." Katara slapped Sokka's hands away from the boy and crouched down next to him "I wonder how long he was in there." Katara said. She begins to shake him gently, and he begins to wake up. His eyes open, and he takes a breath as he sees a gorgeous girl with tanned skin, and dark brown hair.

"Can you come closer?" he said in a low voice. Katara leaned forward, and the boy motioned again with his hand to come closer, so she leaned more. "Will you go penguin sledding with me?" He said in an excited voice as his eyes popped open.

"Umm, I guess" she said sort of confused.

"Yeah!" he shouted as he jumped up about 20ft in the air and landed on his feet. Sokka's jaw dropped as he stared at the boy with wide eyes.

"How did he?"

"I'm Aang! What's your name?" he asked them both enthusiastically.

"I'm Katara and this is my brother Sokka." Katara pointed to her brother. Sokka was still trying to contemplate how the boy managed to jump 20ft in the air. Just then a loud roar was heard in the background and Aang's eyes went wide.

"Appa!" he shouted, then jumped 20ft into the air and to the other side of the iceberg where he came from.

"He did it again!" Sokka shouted pointing at Aang.

"Come on," Katara said and they went around to the other side of the ice. To their shock, Aang was standing next to what looked like a giant bison with an arrow on his head.

"What the heck is that?" Sokka shouted.

Aang smiled wide and said "This is Appa, my flying bison."

"Right, and this is Katara, my flying sister."

"A-aa-achoooo!" Aang sneezed and jumped 20ft in the air once again. He landed and smiled at them like nothing happened.

"Alright that's it!" Sokka yelled. "I have some questions! Why were you in the ice? Why aren't you frozen? And, how the heck do you keep doing that?" Aang stared at him confused for a second, and as about to answer when Katara yelled.

"You're an airbender!"

"Yup" he replied happily.

"Alright, blue lights, flying bison, airbenders, I'm going home where thing are normal." Sokka said. He started walking, but stopped when he realized they were stuck on the ice.

"Appa can give you ride" Aang said.

"Thanks" Katara said. She climbed onto the bison. Sokka knew he had no choice so he climbed on.

"Yip-yip" Aang said and Appa jumped into the air only to splash back into the water and start swimming.

"I thought this was a flying bison." Sokka said sarcastically.

"Appa's just tired. Just wait, in a few moments, he'll be flying through the sky."

"Sure he will" Sokka replied sarcastically.

On the way to the village they chatted (mainly Katara and Aang as Sokka still didn't trust this suspicious kid) about small stuff and their home. Everything was going smooth until Katara mentioned their mother and the war.

"What war?"Aang asked confused.

"What war," Sokka said in shock, "that war that's been going on for the past 100 years! That war!"

"Past 100 years! No way, there was no war yesterday, and just a few days ago I was in the Fire Nation visiting my friend. Why would Fire Lord Sozin start a war with the three nations?"

"What! Fire Lord Sozin! He started the war 100 years ago. There aren't even 4 nations anymore! Where have you been for the past 100 years?"

"Not 4 nations anymore, what do you mean?"

Sokka stared at the boy in absolute shock. "You're kidding right?" When the boy didn't respond, Sokka answered him. "The Fire Nation wiped out the Air Temples and the all the air benders. "

Aang had a look of horror on his face. He could not believe what he was just told. "No you're lying. That is not true."

"Aang," Katara started, "How can you not know this? Your talking like you lived before the war started. Aang, I think you've been stuck in that iceberg for 100 years."

"What! No that's impossible! That can't be true!" It couldn't be true. That would mean that everybody he knows is gone. That would mean he failed in his role as the avatar and let a war go on for 100 years. And worse of, he let the Fire Nation wipe out the Air temples. No, if that were true, then Aang didn't know if he could live with himself.

Before Katara could reply, Sokka spoke up. "There it is." They all turned and could see the village coming up.

As they reached the land, Appa got out of the water and walked until they were close to the village. They all climbed off and walked into the small village. Eyes followed the three, all wondering who the new boy was. Sokka's and Katara's Gran Gran walked up to the three, and soon the whole village gathered.

"Katara, Sokka, who is this you have brought to our village?" Gran Gran asked.

"Everybody, this is Aang." Katara spoke up while stepping back to show Aang. Aang gave everybody an awkward wave. "Sokka and I found him frozen in the ice, and he's an airbender!" Katara spoke excitedly. She didn't get the reaction she thought she would get as she heard a lot of gasps, questions, and murmurs. The people looked surprised, some even scared.

"Katara, are you sure that's such a good idea? You hardly know him? What if he is dangerous?" Gran took another look at Aang who was poking in his ear, then sniffed his hand. "Ummm, never mind." Gran walked away and the croud went back to their own business, unconcerned now. Just then, Aang let out a huge yawn.

"You must be tired, here follow me." Katara grabbed Aang by the arm and led him to a tent. There was a little fur bed with a candle next to it, and for being in the South Pole, it was surprisingly warm.

"You can sleep here, don't worry, it's no trouble." Katara said with a smile.

Aang was too tired to say more than just a small thank you before he plopped down on the bed and fell asleep.

Sokka was off in the village next to a small fire, cooking the fish he had just caught.

"So who's baldy?" He heard from behind him. Sokka turned to see Ken walk up to him and take a seat on the log next to Sokka.

"Some weird kid that Katara and I found trapped in the ice. He's supposedly an aribender which I find is hard to believe. And get this; he had no idea that there was a war going on. Can you believe it?" Sokka said a little amused.

"Really? How can he not know that?"

"I don't know. Katara has some crazy idea that he was born before the war started, and has been frozen in the ice all this time."

"Maybe she is right." Ken said

"Ken, you agree with everything my sister says because you got some big crush on her" Sokka said teasingly while messing up with his hair.

"That's not true!" Ken defended. "Does Katara ever talk about me though?" he asked hopefully.

Sokka chuckled, "You know what Ken, I think she might have a thing for baldy over there so you might have some completion." Sokka joked.

Ken looked sad. "Really?" He looked at Sokka.

"Ken take a joke! I don't even pay attention to what my sister says anyway." Just then, black smoke began to fall from the sky.

"Sokka, I think that fire you have there is a little big"

"No Ken," Sokka said remembering the last time he saw the black snow. "that's not from our fire." Sokka turned and stared off into the sea. The sight he saw made his eyes go wide. Fire Nation ships were approaching.

"Fire Nation" Sokka said to himself.
