Aang ,Kaztumi, 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.

"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! " The storyteller says

" Aren't airbender stories the best? " Aang asks the group

"Was it realistic? Was that how it was back then? " Kaztumi asks

"I laugh at gravity all the time. Haha! Gravity." Aang laughs out

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.

Sokka searches his coast, but when he opens his hands there is only some lint and a bug

"Sorry!" Sokka apologizes

"Aww. Cheapskates! " The storyteller mumbles

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

"Hey thanks for the story! " Aang say

"Tell it to the cap, boy! " He thrust the  hat at Aang without looking at him A copper piece falls on the ground, which Momo picks up and deposits in the cap. The storyteller pats Momo.

"Aw, much obliged little bat thing!" 

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

"What are you prattling about child? Great grand-pappy saw the air walkers last week!"

Appa flies above puffy white clouds, snow capped mountains in the distance.

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

"Do you think we'll really find airbenders? " Kaztumi and Katara asks

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

"Are you saying I'm a liar? " Katara folds her arms

"I'm saying you're an optimist. Same thing basically." Sokka admits

"Hey guys, look at this!" Aang points

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. Smoke rises in lazy pillars from a couple places among the spires. Around the temple fly many gliders.

"Huh! They really are airbenders! " Katzumi says

" No, they're not. " Aang slumps back

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

"Gliding maybe, but not flying. You can tell by the way they move. They're not airbending. Those people have no spirit. " Aang explains

Kaztumi, Katara, and Sokka almost get their heads taken off by a glider as it passes over their heads. 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.
