I hope you like how it goes, and i would appreciate any and all constructive criticism in regards to making my stories better.

Five Years Later

"Dad" Azulon whined childishly. "Noatak won't play with me, and he won't tell me why."

Tonraq sighed at his sons complaining, as he put down the book he had been reading to look at Azulon. "So why is that my problem?" he asked sternly. "If your brother doesn't want to play, he doesn't have to, after all. How about you and I play? We can practice your water bending, if you want." Azulon perked up immediately at this. He had always loved bending.

"Yes, Yes, Yes, of course we can" Azulon exclaimed excitedly, as Tonraq chuckled deeply, marking the page in his book as he stood.

"Go and get your coat, and I will meet you outside" Tonraq said, still chuckling from Azulon's excitement. He grabbed his coat that was hanging by the door, shrugged it on, and walked outside, walking over to the partially frozen river near their house. He quickly went through the motions, loosening up his muscles before he started training with his son. By the time Azulon had grabbed a thick enough coat and made it to the riverside, Tonraq had gone through the movements twice in quick succession, and was about to start a third round.

"Okay, Azulon, first you have to warm up. Do you remember the movements I taught you?" Azulon nodded at this. "Okay. Just in case, I will go through them with you."

Tonraq started, moving through the well-practiced movements with ease, smiling slightly when Azulon sped up too quickly and stuffed up a bit, but quickly righted himself and continued. After about three repetitions of the movements, Tonraq stopped, followed quickly by Azulon.

"Now, I will show you some basic movements that many water benders use in their movements. When we move on to more complex styles and forms, you will notice that many of these movements are required to use these other forms."

Azulon nodded as he cheerfully watched his father going through the swift movements, carefully memorizing and cataloguing the precise movements of the arms, the gentle sway of the feet, the perfect positing of the hand.

As Tonraq moved, a spout of water rose from the river, slowly moving towards his hands, as the familiar buzz of energy filled him when he was bending. He cut off the spout when he had the desired amount and moved the water to rest in front of him, palms open as he willed the water into a perfect sphere. As he clenched his open hands into fists, the sphere of water quickly froze from the inside out, becoming a perfect sphere of ice, albeit slightly larger than the water had been.

"Notice how, as I move, I move in slow, swaying motions, in much the same way as the waves move back and forth from the shore" Tonraq explained to the brunette as he moved, smiling at the rapt attention from Azulon. "You try now. And do not worry, if you don't get it on the first try, it doesn't matter. We can always try again."

Azulon nodded excitedly as he moved into the stance his father had been in prior to finishing his movements. He moved his arms in long, sweeping movements in front of him, moving back and forth slightly, careful to keep his palms open. He managed to make a small spout, not as big as his fathers, but accidentally lost control of it as he whooped in joy. Quickly noticing his mistake, Azulon stemmed his excitement, starting the movements again from the start. He eventually managed to make a sphere of ice, though considerably smaller than and not as perfect as his fathers after a number of tries, before they moved onto the next task.

"Good, very good" Tonraq exclaimed happily to his son. "You're taking to this a lot quicker than I did at your age. It took me almost a month to do what you just did." Azulon beamed excitedly at the praise he was given, though shocked at the difference in time. "Now, you have to learn more about moving water, rather than turning it into a sphere. A sphere is no use as weapon, unless of course you intend to throw it at your attacker." Azulon laughed at this exclamation, though quickly stalled the laughter in his quest to learn more. "I will now show you how to turn ice back to water, and I want you to move it around me, like I show you."

Tonraq then showed how change the ice back to water, by holding his clenched fists over the sphere and slowly opening them into open palms, facing down, as he moved his hands and body to maneuver the water around Azulon three times before returning it to him and doing the same thing, before returning the water to the frozen sphere.

Azulon quickly followed suite, moving his body in the same motions as his father had only moments before. As it did, it slowly started to snow, getting slightly heavier as they continued. By the time the water had returned to Azulon and he was spinning it around himself, his nose started to itch, as if he needed to sneeze. By the time the water was on its third rotation, the itching had gotten so bad that he couldn't hold the sneeze back. What happened next shocked both father and son.

As he sneezed, a stream of sickly green flames spewed from his mouth, making him lose control of the water he was bending. The blast of flames sent him flying three feet back, landing on his butt, yelping slightly at the pain. As the flames tapered off, Azulon couldn't help but remember a similarly green light from the night he and Noatak had been found by their mother. Though still shocked he quickly looked at his father, who had shock written all over his face. A slight smile stretched slowly across his face as his mind was the first to realize what had just happened.

"My son is the Avatar" was all he could say, quietly at first, before whooping in excitement, loudly proclaiming "MY SON IS THE AVATAR."

Though still shocked, Azulon was smiling too, aware of what being the Avatar meant. He quickly got off of the ground where he had landed, and tackled his father in excitement, unable to control himself. "We have to tell the others father" Azulon said excitedly, a little quickly for his father's liking. "Everyone is going to be shocked. Come on, dad, we have to go." With that, Azulon let go of Tonraq and quickly ran back to their modest little two story home, calling out to Senna and Noatak.

Tonraq followed at a more sedate pace, still trying to wrap his head around what was happening. Though he would gladly admit that he was excited for his son, it wasn't every day that some ones child became the Avatar. As Azulon managed to get the attention of the others, he quickly made sure that he could make the flames appear again, punching the air a number of times, before he had was successful in calling forth his new power.

As Senna and Noatak walked out of the house, both were curious as to what Azulon wanted of them, questioning looks on their faces. Azulon quickly started explaining what he and Tonraq had been doing, before being rather vague about why they had ended so soon.

"So, why exactly did you finish so abruptly?" Senna asked her over excitable six year old son. Though they were both twins, Senna was almost glad that both boys were each very different. While Azulon was over excitable and quick to anger, controlled by his emotions, Noatak was cold and calculating, which Senna felt was odd for a six year old. Though he did have a tight hold on his emotions, ensuring that most of the time they didn't get the better of him, he did let his mask drop from time to time to show who he really was.

"Are you going to show us or not?" Noatak said, clearly bored. "I want to get back to my reading."

"This is what I'm going to show you" Azulon replied excitedly. With that, he spun on his heel, and punched the air in front of him. Bright green flames shot from his hand, not a prolonged plume like what had come out of his mouth, but a quick stream before they stopped, flying through the air, before hitting a snow drift and being quickly extinguished.

Senna looked at their son with excitement, knowing what being related to the Avatar would do for them. Noatak, though looking amazed, also looked shocked and confused, all three emotions flashing quickly across his face.

"But how is that possible?" Noatak blurted out, shocking Tonraq and Senna out of their amazement.

"What do you mean 'how is that possible?'" Tonraq asked his normally quiet son.

"Simple" the raven haired boy said moving up to his brother's side. To the shock of the other three, when Noatak punched the air thrice in quick succession. From the first punch, Noatak's distinguishable bright purple flames burst from his fist, flying to the same snow drift as Azulon's and quickly extinguishing. From the second punch a burst of air shot from his hand, pummeling into the snow, sending up a cloud of snow that slowly fluttered down around them. With the third a column of water rose from the ground and quickly hurtled to where the snow drift had been moments before

"H-How is this possible?" Senna asked, shock filling her voice. "Two Avatar's? We have to inform the White Lotus."

"I agree" Tonraq said once he got over his shock. "There must be a reason for there being to Avatar's. We will leave it to the White Lotus." He walked inside, thinking about what to write to the White Lotus compound not far from the village.

Three Days Later

Three days had passed since the revelation that both Azulon and Noatak were the Avatar's. Though it was still unknown who was the true Avatar, and why there were two, but the delegation from the White Lotus was arriving today to prove that the Avatar had indeed been found, though they only knew that one of them were the Avatar.

General Lee and his companion, Tseng, stood outside of the simple, yet shabby, two story house on the outskirts of town that was home to Tonraq and Senna. The two water benders were both well known throughout town, due to Senna being an excellent healer and Tonraq's prowess as a warrior, but also due to their commitments to their family. Though it was well known that their two sons were not theirs by birth, they had been committed wholly to raising the two boys as if they were their own, even going to the point of blood adopting them when no one came forward claiming the boys as their own.

Lee rapped three times on the wooden door, patiently waiting for an answer. The woman that answered the door, who Lee believed must have been Senna, quickly ushered the two White Lotus warriors into the living room upon seeing their uniform.

"Ma'am, we have been led to believe that the Avatar is one of your sons" Lee said in a gruff voice, with a heavy, fire nation accent.

"Yes, that is true, General" Senna replied quickly, clearly nervous at having two members of the White Lotus in her house.

"You do know that we have been searching high and low across both the Northern and Southern tribes, correct?" Lee asked quickly, with a curt nod as a reply. "And you do know that if you are lying you can be imprisoned for three years?" Senna nodded quickly to this too.

"We assure you, General Lee" a man, Lee believed him to be Tonraq, said as he walked across into the living room, hugging his wife from behind. "We are not mistaken."

"Are you entirely sure about these claims?" Tseng asked quickly skepticism clear in his tone.

"Boys, come here please" Tonraq said in reply. Before the three warriors could say anything, two boys, clearly twins, and around six years old, walked out of the door through which Tonraq had walked through moments earlier.

"Yes father" the two boys said in unison.

"Could you do what we were talking about a moment ago?" Tonraq asked nicely, to which both boys nodded, moving to opposite sides of the room.

Without another word, the two boys had begun what their father had asked of them. They started off by showing their birth element, Water rising from an urn and spinning around Azulon and Fire from Noatak's palms. The jaws of the two warriors were slack upon seeing the oddly colored flames shooting from Noatak's hands, but they quickly recovered before their jaws were slack once again upon seeing both brothers change the elements they were bending. Azulon started punching the air, followed quickly by stones being launched from the wall behind him. Noatak was punching the air as well, but blasts of air shooting from his fists. For a second time the brothers changed the element they were bending, water rising from another urn close to Noatak, swirling around him similar to Azulon, while Azulon had bright green flames hovering above his open palms.

"So General" Tonraq asked once the brothers had finished their show. "Are you completely satisfied with our reply?"

There were two heavy thuds as Lee and Tseng hit the floor in shock.
