"Water... Earth... Fire... Air..." Katara voices over as the benders demonstrate as she talks. "My grandmother used to tell me stories about the old days, a time of peace when the Avatar kept the balance between the Water Tribes, Earth Kingdom, Fire Nation, and Air Nomads. But that all changed when the Fire Nation attacked." It journeys into the map showing the world and closes in on a bender displaying all the elements. "Only the Avatar mastered all four elements. Only he could stop the ruthless firebenders. But when the world needed him most, he vanished." He disappears from sight. "A hundred years have passed and the Fire Nation is nearing victory in the war. Two years ago, my father and the men of my tribe journeyed to the Earth Kingdom to help fight against the Fire Nation, leaving me and my brother to look after our tribe." It shows the Water Tribe men on their boats and Katara hugging her older brother Sokka holding up a lantern. "Some people believe that the Avatar was never reborn into the Air Nomads and that the cycle is broken, but I haven't lost hope. I still believe that somehow the Avatar will return to save the world."

The Ending - Part 1: The Countdown

On Ember Island at the Fire Lord's old beach house in front, Aang shifts to the side into a stance as he practices his Firebending, he arcs his arms, right leg followed by his left leg. He walks forward then he Firebends a flurry of small shots, circling rapidly with his arms as Rin and Zuko watch on sternly with their arms crossed. "More ferocious!" Zuko snaps and Aang Firebends with his fists and walks forward with an intense look of concentration.

"Imagine striking through your opponent's heart." Rin snaps at him and he Firebends another shot of fire and turns towards the two Firebenders with his arms in a frustrated gesture.

"Ugh! I'm trying." Aang complains.

"Now let me hear you roar like a tiger-dillo!" Zuko tells him and Aang turns back around stretching his arms out roaring rather weakly with weak streams of fire coming out of his mouth and palms, he turns back grinning sheepishly at his attempt.

"That sounded pathetic! He said roar!" Rin shouts at him, and it does the trick as Aang turns around, roaring ferociously and Firebends rather strong flames out of both hands and mouth. Momo gets scared and races over to hide behind Zuko's leg looking out at the strong flames and the two Firebenders nod their heads in approval then Katara holds up two watermelons with the tops cut out and straws in them.

"Who wants a nice, cool glass of watermelon juice?" Katara calls out and Aang gets excited with his eyes wide with greed.

"Ooo, ooo." He gleams turning around, "me, me, me!" He exclaims and begins to run towards the house.

"Hey," Rin snaps and snatches the back of his robe to stop him, "your lessons not over yet!" Aang tries to break free of her hold but she doesn't budge and he sticks out his tongue with thirst. "Get back here." She pulls Aang up with little effort shocking Aang at how strong she was and looks disappointed too.
