Why...

Why do you look like... me?

Uh, if anyone looks like someone, you look like me.

Like everyone else, I believed that

if the Avatar came back, there would be bloodshed

and destruction, but now...

I don't know.

By the Havens.

Air.

Water.

Earth.

Long ago, the Avatar, master of all four elements,

brought forth the Cataclysm.

Out of the devastation,

the world built The Seven Havens.

Now the Avatar has returned,

but for the first time, there are two.

Most fear they'll destroy the world again,

but I believe they will save it.

Who goes it?!

Good morning.

It's just me and my kalimba.

What are you doing with that?

My mind's been racing since the storm,

after that scary energy thing zapped us.

There's been this song in the back of my mind.

Like a fuzzy memory.

I think I've heard it before.

It goes like...

♪ Oh little one, where'd you take my heart? ♪

That's... lovely?

Thanks. I do a lot of concerts for my friends back home.

Friends?

I thought you were pretty much

on your own, like me.

I have loads of friends.

You can't be totally alone.

Wait, did you... did you sleep on the ground?

Of course! It's the best!

All the smells, the bugs,

the weird mold.

Not as great as my home.

I miss the musk.

Yeah, I know, but this is your home now.

Home? Huh.

I guess you're right.

How long will it take to fix our home?

I don't know, sweetie.

Sleep well?

I don't think I'll ever sleep well again.

Join the club.

Are Pavi and Nisha okay? I couldn't see what happened.

You're worried about the Avatars?

I-I don't... That's not what I said.

Law 47, Section One of the Elloran Code states,

you must report any suspicious activity

relating to the Avatar to the council.

The people need to know the truth, right?

You know why people think they should know the truth?

They believe it'll keep them safe.

Funny. Usually the opposite is true.

Do you trust me, Jae?

Of course, sir.

forget what you saw.

You've got friends, someone you love,

a life that you're comfortable with.

Go back to it.

I have a duty to Ellora.

I need to tell the council what I know.

So be it. First door on your left.

Councilman Vinh's a bit hard of hearing,

so you'll need to speak up.

There will be consequences, of course.

I'll probably be imprisoned, the girls will be exiled,

left to fend for themselves in the Harshlands.

Or worse.

Ellora has weathered many storms,

but nothing like what we faced recently.

We do not know much

about the strange energy that attacked us,

but I do know our haven stands strong this day

thanks to the incredible bravery of our Bending Brigade.

Captain Karthik, with Commander Bountan injured,

our home needs you more than ever.

Speak freely, Jae.

Your thoughts are valued by the council.

Um...

The commander is...

devoted to protecting Ellora.

Captain Karthik, do you swear to protect Ellora

and keep true to the tenets of our haven?

I serve at the will of the council.

The brigade is yours to lead.

Keep us safe, Commander.

Very well. Thank you all for your service.

Report to Tala to assist with haven repairs.

Commander Karthik.

Stop it.

You were the one destined

for titles and banquets, not me.

True.

How you even got to captain is a mystery.

Did you ever make it on time to a class?

Once. At least.

Kayoko, this energy Anomaly,

we need reinforcements.

Let's reach out to the other havens for more benders.

And expose the Haven's weaknesses?

The council would never do that.

You'll have to rely on the benders you have.

Asking for help isn't weak. Please?

They'll listen to you, Chancellor.

We're Ellorans, Karthik.

We know how to take care of ourselves.

May the winds always bend to you... Commander.

Grab those!

The council wants this gate repaired immediately.

Is the hardest working crew in all of Ellora ready for...

Pa-pa!

Kachoris!

Fresh from Agam's snack shop.

Mm! This is divine! Mmm!

Mm-mm!

A little thank you for working a double shift.

Hmm, I'll sleep a lot easier once the gate is repaired.

Yeah, uh...

Not much this fancy new gate can do

since that zappy thing came from underneath us.

But it'll make people think they're safe.

And isn't that nice?

Huh? Wh-what?

You seemed distracted earlier.

Are you okay?

I need to tell you something.

You know you can tell me anything.

It's about the Avatar. I...

Oh, the festival, right?

"Remember when the Avatar destroyed the world,

yadda, yadda, ya... Eat lotus fritters."

Whoa, whoa, whoa, wait.

Don't tell me you actually had fun.

No, no, it's...

What if the Avatar did come back?

And she... or he

wasn't horrible?

-What would you do? -I'd protect my haven

and kick the Avatar out into the Harshlands.

They're the reason we live like this:

isolated and afraid.

Oh! Easy there!

They've all been agitated ever since the storm.

You're okay. We're here to protect you.

What is this place?

Hi!

Is this your secret basement?

You shouldn't be here!

Wa-wait, Shilpa! We're coworkers!

Sorry, sorry. I'm so sorry!

This is all a big misunderstanding.

Get back here!

Hi.

I told you to walk away.

I suppose I should be proud

I trained such an annoyingly persistent bender.

The Avatar saved me

and now you want me to, what, lie forever

and forget I saw any of that?

We can burn those memories out!

Alright, Jae.

What do you propose?

I'm confused, I'm scared, I can't sleep,

and I hate telling lies.

It makes my ears itch.

Part of me wishes I'd never followed you down here.

But another part wants to help those girls.

What do you know of the Order of the White Lotus?

-Uh... -♪ mystical music playing ♪

Uh, I've heard stories.

A freaky underground cult

that worships the Avatars...

Oh!

It's best if you come with me.

We're not a cult, are we?

Hmm.

For ages, the White Lotus has been working from the shadows

to protect and train the Avatar.

After the Cataclysm two centuries ago,

our numbers dwindled to almost nothing.

It's not easy.

Especially when the whole world is against the Avatar.

We need the Avatars to mend our broken world

but right now, they need us

to teach them, to protect their secret,

to help them.

No one can know. Not your squad,

not your loved ones.

Are you trying to scare me off?

Is it working?

I meant it earlier.

You've got a good life, Jae.

Think on it.

And in the meantime, you are welcome to observe.

Just don't get in Hamka's way.

Easy, easy, girl! What's gotten into you?

Yeah, you won't believe that he said that.

Uh...

So...

Is there like a chore chart or...

-Shush! -No? Okay.

While you both were born natural earthbenders,

as Avatars, you must master all the elements.

Nisha, show your sister what you know.

Try breathing out with the movement

instead of against it.

I know how to breathe!

Woo!

Uh...

Well done, Nisha!

Now then, Pavi?

Oh, me?

Do that?

Nah, I'm-I'm not a...

Ah! My eye!

kinda kid.

Don't worry. It's just practice.

Let go of me! I'm not gonna fight anyone!

Even for pretend.

We are the Avatars. We have to know how to fight.

Why? Fighting only leads to more fighting.

What's the point?

Hey, it's okay.

If she doesn't wanna fight, she doesn't wanna fight.

Who asked you?!

I just want to get to know my sister.

I don't care about being the Avatar.

Oh, so then you don't care about me?

I didn't say that!

You might as well!

Now, girls, let's not get upset.

We're not upset!

And I don't care about you either.

Who wants to hang out with a weirdo mold-missing musk lover?

Let's take a break.

I should've never come here.

Then just leave!

Go back to all your cool friends!

Fine! Maybe I will!

Nisha, go apologize.

-But... -Get your sister now!

What are we supposed to do with them?

Nisha's style has always been chaotic,

but the other one, she's approximately...

986 days and four hours behind in training.

If she won't fight, what good is she?

We teach her.

This is an opportunity.

There have never been two Avatars at once.

Together, they are the key to fighting this Anomaly.

I know it.

Jae?

How am I supposed to help them

when they won't listen to me?

It's just...

Gah! This is so much responsibility!

And risk!

I am not cut out for this.

I know this is bigger than anything

you've taken on in the brigade.

Responsibility is scary.

It's a lot for people to need you.

But all I'm asking for now is for you to be Jae.

A bender with heart.

She left!

-Pavi's gone. -♪ tense dramatic music plays ♪

I turned a corner and saw her slip out a window with Geet!

It's okay.

She can't have gone far.

Let me find her.

Send us, not the kid.

Commander, please, I think I can get through to her

if you let me.

I've done it before.

He gets 7.85 minutes.

Yeah, then we follow him to make sure he doesn't talk.

No. I trust him.

So, where are we going first?

Are you allowed to be here?

Karthik was right. You're all about the rules.

Really? Wha-what else did he say about me?

I chased her through here a couple days ago.

I wonder if she lives nearby.

Watch out!

Hey, hey. All friends here. Hey.

Its eyes.

Something's wrong.

Whoa, you gotta teach me that.

Let me handle this.

We have to stop scaring it.

Please, just let me try something.

It's okay.

You're scared.

Like me, right?

♪ Oh little one, where'd you take my heart? ♪

♪ Oh little one, where'd you take my heart? ♪

♪ Did you hide it in the moon? ♪

♪ Did you sink it in the sea? ♪

♪ Is it stuck inside your pocket? ♪

♪ Keep it close as close can be ♪

♪ Someday you'll return to me ♪

Mom?

That song.

I remember.

She wore her hair just like yours,

I can teach you.

If you want.

I'm sorry about before.

Me too.

Could I meet your friends?

There you are!

Luster and Mica, this is my sister.

Huh?

Oh! These are your friends!

It's not much, but it's home.

Or it was.

I like sleeping on the ground,

talking to bugs, playing my kalimba.

I want to stay with you,

but I don't wanna stop being me.

And I wanna know the real you.

Rock friends and all.

Sorry! Sorry.

Your guards... I mean, guardians.

What if I'm not what they expect an Avatar to be like?

Karthik's been there for me.

He'll be there for you too. I know it.

Responsibility can be scary.

It's a lot for people to need you.

But all you need to be right now is Pavi.

That's plenty.

And you won't have to do it alone

'cause I'll be right there with you.

And so will Nisha, right?

Yup, and we can be the kind of Avatars we wanna be.

Pack your bags.

It's moving day!

Jae!

Datu! What are you doing here?

Hey, I've been looking all over for you and...

Oh, hi!

Who are these little ones?

Uh, they're friends.

Family! Family friends.

Touch the hair, lose your hand.

Little rascal! Anyway, I've gotta run.

Important brigade business.

See you later, okay?

Commander Karthik, I'm really sorry for leaving.

I brought some friends back.

I'll introduce you later.

And I want to ask you for a favor.

I thought my parents were gone,

but then I found Nisha.

So...

maybe our mom and dad are still out there too.

Do you think you can help us find them?

I give you my word.

Also...

We want Jae to teach us.

I'm ready. I won't let you down.

Welcome to the Order.

There goes my sweets fund.

Always bet on airbenders doing the right thing.

Oh! Can you teach me how to use your air skimmer?

Well...

I dunno, it's pretty advanced.

Yeah, we're the Avatars.

I think we can handle it.

Wait!

You girls are gonna be the death of me.

Relax, wind boy, we got this.

Oof!

Okay, we've got some stuff to learn,

but Ellora now has two Avatars.

We can take care of whatever comes our way!
