a small group of people seated on benches. It is night. Aang _, Katara and Sokka sit on the first bench to the left. Some children kneel on the ground in front of the benches. They are all listening to a man sitting in front of the fire that burns in the center of the gathering

Storyteller: So travelers, the next time you think you hear a strange large bird talking, take a closer look, it might not be a giant parrot, but a flying man! A member of a secret group of air walkers who laugh at gravity and laugh at those bound to the earth by it!

(Cut to Aang, smiling.)

Aang: Aren't airbender stories the best?

Katara: Was it realistic? Was that how it was back then?

Aang: I laugh at gravity all the time. Haha! Gravity.

_: you a wild man

(Cut to a wider shot of the 4 on the bench. Suddenly a pair of hands holding an open hat appear in front of Sokka. The hands shake the hat and the jungle of coins is heard.)

Storyteller: Jingle, jingle!

(Sokka searches his coat, but when he opens his hands there is only some lint and a bug. The bugs legs wiggle a few times,

Sokka: Sorry!

Storyteller: Aww. Cheapskates!

Aang runs over to the storyteller who is facing another audience member as he seeks more donations

Aang: Hey thanks for the story!

Storyteller (thrusting hat at Aang without looking at him): Tell it to the cap, boy!

_: i dont know about you, but that was just rude.

(Momo picks up a copper piece and deposits in the cap. The storyteller pats Momo.)

Storyteller: Aw, much obliged little bat thing!

Aang: It means a lot to hear airbender stories. It must have been hundred years ago your great grandpa met them.

Storyteller: What are you prattling about child? Great grandpappy saw the air walkers last week!

Great Grand-Pappy: Heya!

the next day

Aang: Hey, we're almost at the Northern Air Temple! This is where they had the championships for sky bison polo.

Katara: Do you think we'll really find airbenders?

Sokka: You want me to be like you, or totally honest?

_: Are you saying shes a liar?

Sokka: I'm saying shes an optimist. Same thing basically.

Aang: Hey guys, look at this!

Appa, flies them towards the Northern Air Temple. It sits atop a sheer peak similar to its sister temple down south. Unlike that temple, however, there are people or things flying around this one. Around the temple fly many gliders. Aang, Katara in the background. Aang's smile turns to a slight frown.)

Katara: Huh! They really are airbenders!

Aang (leaning back and folding his arms unhappily): No, they're not.

Sokka: What do you mean they're not? Those guys are flying!

Aang: Gliding maybe, but not flying.

_: yeah, hes right. You can tell by the way they move. They're not airbending.

aang: Those people have no spirit.

The glider pilot laughs. A teenage boy wearing amber goggles and seated in a glider built out of a wheelchair laughs and wheels his craft around for another pass at Appa
