He might start by observing. Aang is a curious person, so he'd likely watch how people live, how they interact with technology. He may also try to find other benders to learn about any new developments in bending. And he'd probably use his kind heart to make friends easily in this new future environment.
Aang could adapt to the future in the fanfiction by first learning about the new rules and social norms. Since he's used to a more traditional way of life, understanding things like new forms of government or social hierarchies would be crucial. He'd also need to adapt his bending skills. For example, if there are new obstacles or terrains in the future, he might have to modify his airbending techniques. He may also draw on his past experiences of adapting to new cultures when he traveled the world in his own time to help him in this new future situation.
In the fanfiction, Aang's adaptability would come from his strong sense of self and his connection to the Avatar spirit. He'd be able to see the good in the future world, even if it's very different from what he's used to. He may initially struggle with the fast - paced nature of the future, but his inner peace would help him. He could start to incorporate some of the future's technology into his own life. For instance, if there are devices that can enhance communication, he might use them to spread his message of peace. And as he meets new people, he'd gradually learn their ways and become an important part of this future world.
Well, he could encounter advanced technology that he has never seen before. It would be interesting to see how he, as a traditional bender, reacts to things like flying machines or high - tech communication devices. Also, he might meet people who have different views on the role of the Avatar in this new future world.
He could meet his future self. It would be an interesting encounter as he could learn from his future experiences and wisdom. Or he might meet people who have studied his past adventures and see himself through their eyes.
In this fanfiction, Aang might encounter advanced bending techniques. Since he's traveling to the future, he could see how bending has evolved over time. Maybe there are new forms of bending that combine different elements in ways he never thought possible.
In some fanfics, Aang might die in battle against a powerful enemy. He gives his all but is ultimately overpowered.
Sokka could be one of the main characters. He might be the one helping Aang with his schoolwork, especially in subjects like history or math, using his own knowledge and quick thinking.
Sokka would also be a common character. His strategic mind could be very useful in a different time period. He might be the one who figures out how to deal with the new situations they encounter while in the past. For instance, if they need to outwit an enemy in a historical battle, Sokka would be the one to come up with a plan.
Aang could be friends with Neville. Neville is often underestimated but has a lot of courage, just like Aang. They could bond over their shared experiences of being different. Also, Luna Lovegood might be interested in Aang's unique abilities and his different world view, so she could be a potential friend too.
Aang might go into a deep state of depression. He has always been an emotional character, and having his heart broken by Katara, someone he loves deeply, could send him into a downward spiral. He might isolate himself from his friends and stop practicing his bending for a while.
Well, Aang being the Avatar has a deep connection with the elements. In this fanfiction, perhaps he enters the Avatar State and uses all his elemental powers in harmony. He could use waterbending to create moisture and cool the volcano, combined with his airbending to disperse the heat and gases.
Aang could save the Airbenders in the fanfiction by first finding out the root of the threat they are facing. If it's a powerful enemy bent on destroying them, he may seek allies among the other benders, like the Earth Kingdom or the Water Tribes. He'd then use his airbending to scout the enemy's territory undetected. Once he has all the information, he could use his skills to either directly confront the enemy or find a way to neutralize the threat. For instance, if the enemy is using some sort of dark magic, Aang could use his pure Avatar energy to dispel it and free the captured Airbenders. And of course, he'd use his airbending to fly around and quickly transport the Airbenders to a secure location.
