A group comes marching over the hill, and Eliza runs inside to tell her family.
"Maman, Papa, Peggy, Angelica, Alexander! There are some strange people coming over the hill!" Eliza shouts.
"What do they want?" Alexander asks, rushing down the stairs and flying around the banister.
"Well, that's just it. I don't know." Eliza admits.
"Let's meet them!" calls Peggy, rushing out the door.
"Might as well," mumbles Alexander.
They go out into the yard, and the group recognizes Alexander instantly.
"The avatar!" They chorus.
"Greetings, Avatar!" cheers one of the men with freckles all over his face.
"Hello, who are you?" Alexander asks, confused.
"We are here to train you. You need skill in all the elements to defeat the evil King George." A man with crisp, clean clothes tells Alexander.
"Okay, let's introduce ourselves to him instead of just making him more confused." An irritated man with a ruffled collar remarks drily.
"I'm Hercules Mulligan. I am going to help you refine your earthbending skills." A man with enormous muscles turns to Alexander.
"Mon ami, je m'appelle Lafayette. J'enseigne vous 'firebending.'" A tall man in very stylish clothing and a significant French accent tells Alexander.
"My name is John Laurens. I'm not a bender, but you'll need hand-to-hand combat a lot in your line of work, and that's my specialty." The man with the freckles addresses Alexander.
"Burr. Aaron Burr. I will teach you airbending." The man in the crisp clothes tells Alexander.
"I've got a wicked skill! Metalbending! I'll tell you what that is later, once you've finished with these other lame-o people. Thomas Jefferson." The gentleman wearing a ruffled collar informs Alexander.
"We are Team Avatar!" cheers John Laurens.
"Wait, what?" asks Alexander.
"You are the avatar, you already know that. But there is a tyrant terrorizing the citizens of the kingdom and it's eventually your job to stop him. You aren't ready yet. We are here to help you, one by one." Hercules explains.
"No way. This can't be happening. Who is this King?" Alexander asks.
Hercules offers a picture. "This is him."
Alexander gasps. "I know him! Okay, let's do it."
The others are confused as to how Alexander knows the King's photo.
Oh well. They think patiently.
"Let's get started with your first lesson." Hercules says decisively, and Alexander follows hesitantly after him.
Those are their powers. I am not really sure how Alexander knows the King, suggestions are welcome!
Please review and be safe!
