and he was not allowed to

wear the Fire Nation's uniform.

But we will let him wear it today

like a child wearing a costume.

One day my father will take me

back, and you'll bow before me.

Are you okay?

I'll be fine.

You know, my grandma thinks because you are

an airbender, that you could be the Avatar.

How much does the Fire Nation control?

A lot of villages in the Earth

kingdom, like around here.

They haven't been able to conquer

the big cities like Ba Sing Se.

but they are making plans, I'm sure.

So, are you the Avatar, Aang?

What is this?

Stay hidden.

- That child is being arrested.

- For what?

He was bending tiny stones

at us from behind a tree

- It really hurt.

- He can bend earth?

Earthbending is

forbidden in this village

Leave him alone. You are

not taking him anywhere.

No one is taking anybody away.

She's a bender

Katara!

Move! And you too.

Dad!

- This is my father.

- Hello.

The Fire Nation's plan is

suppress all other bending.

How did this happen to your village?

The Fire Nation sent soldiers.

We fought and defeated them.

Then they sent their machines.

Huge machines, made of metal.

There was nothing we could do.

Those who could not bend

were allowed to live in peace

if we were imprisoned.

Earthbenders!

Why are you acting this way? You

are powerful! And amazing people!

You don't need to live like this.

There is earth right beneath your feet.

The ground is an

extension of who you are!

If the Avatar had returned,

would that mean anything to you?

The Avatar is dead!, if he

was here, he would protect us!

My name is Aang.

And I'm the Avatar.

I ran away, but I'm back now.

It's time for you to stop doing this!

The Avatar would have been an Airbender

Are you an Airbender, boy?

Leave him alone!

- What are you doing, boy?

- I do not want to hurt anyone.

All the airbenders

should be dead, kill him!

Firebenders, prepare!

OK!. Everybody can help us now!

Don't be afraid!

Go back!

They took away any

stuff related to bending.

The Fire Nation took this scroll

from one member of your Water tribe.

Waterbending Scrolls!

This is rare, my Mom told me about this

This was you when you were born

an Earthbender two lifetimes ago.

You came to our village.

Avatar Kyoshi loved games.

I do too. I mean, I still do.

A lot of the villages in

this part of your kingdom

are occupied by the Fire

Nation. As this village was.

They prey the weakest

towns and villages.

We should go visit some

of these towns Aang.

- I need to say you something.

- What is it Aang?

I ran away before they

trained me to be the Avatar.

I don't know how to

bend the other elements.

Why did you run away?

The day they told me I was the Avatar,
