Alika (Fractures Alternate Universe)

Alika was a Ga-Matoran resident of the Fractures Universe, known for marrying Carnac and for participating in the Battle of Morica.

Early Life
Like all other Ga-Matoran, Alika began her life on Spherus Magna, where she aided in the construction the Matoran Universe. Following the completion of the task Alika was placed in the Southern Continent, along with a number of other Matoran.

Originally lending her skills as an agricultural worker, Alika settled in a small coastal village with a vibrant Matoran community. Some time after her establishment in the area, a Le-Matoran Flax Maker named Carnac settled in the area and became a pastoral farmer.

It was during this period that Alika encountered and Carnac were made responsible for tending to the village's Rahi population. The two developed a budding friendship until they entered a brief relationship and finally married.

Brotherhood Invasion
Due to the fact that Makuta Teridax never existed in the Fractures Universe, the Brotherhood did not form The Grand Plan and, instead of waiting for events to fall into place around the Great Cataclysm, accelerated their invasion of the Matoran Universe. Thus, Mata Nui was still able to safely land on Spherus Magna.

Consequently the Order of Mata Nui began conscripting Matoran to serve as soldiers in the upcoming conflict. Carnac volunteered for this duty while Akila conscientiously objected to the declaration of war and refused to condone violence, travelling to Metru-Nui instead.

War
Carnac managed to survive a large duration of the War in active service of an Order of Mata-Nui combat regiment. He participated in a number of key battles before ending his military career at the Battle of the Southern Island Chain.

During this particular conflict, Carnac was critically injured by a Rahkshi of Fragmentation and was rendered immobile. Had Toa Matoro not intervened to save his life, the Le-Matoran would have been killed. Thus, he owed the Toa a considerable debt and began to feel that his integrity rested upon him returning his thanks to the Toa of Ice.

Order of Mata Nui Service
Still severely wounded by his injuries, Carnac was given medical treatment and discharged from regular combat. However, he remained eager to continue to serve the Order of Mata Nui in hopes of repaying his debt to Matoro, much to Alika's dismay.

At this point in the history of the War, however, Toa Takanuva was killed and his Kanohi Avohkii was smuggled back into the Order of Mata Nui's possession. As the organisation required a secret bunker with which to hide the coveted Kanohi, Carnac was given the opportunity to help guard the Avohkii.

Both the Ga-Matoran and her husband were then relocated to a fortress village in a mountainous region of the Northern Continent named Morcia, in honor of a fallen Toa of Fire, where they joined the community of Matoran and were protected by three Order of Mata Nui agents. It was here that Carnac became a guard to the village shrine and Alika continued her life as an Agricultural Worker.

Zero Hour
However, several centuries later, a Brotherhood of Makuta strike team infiltrated the village in search of the Kanohi after its location was revealed by a captured Order of Mata Nui operative. Unfortunately, Carnac was captured by the aggressors before being subjected to torture and chained. Alika, however, was able to escape the ordeal with Toa Merra and a handful of other Matoran.

The combined efforts of Toa Meera and Toa Jekkai enabled the Matoran and Turaga to be freed. Although the Toa of Water was crippled in the conflict and her fellow Toa was presumably killed, Carnac was reunited with Alika and a small group of survivors managed to escape with the Kanohi Avohkii.

Metru-Nui
The surviving group then fled to Metru-Nui, where they handed the Kanohi over to the local Toa and were greeted as heroes. All members of the group were granted residence in Metru-Nui as a reward for their noble actions.

By this point, however, Toa Matoro had returned to the city and was acting as its ruler. Feeling he owed his life to the Toa, Carnac attempted to return the favor by becoming Matoro's personal body guard. When the Vahki Law Enforcement was dispatched to fight in the war, Carnac was offered the position.

Post War Work
Several months after the end of the 3,001 year War, Carnac witnessed Matoro's health deteriorating and was present when the Turaga collapsed in his chamber after waking up. In spite of this, however, Carnac refused to leave the Turaga's side and protected him more efficiently than ever, becoming something of a right-hand man for Matoro, which caused Alika further grief.

Unfortunately, Matoro passed away shortly after collapsing in Carnac's arms. As it was later revealed that an assassin named Racasix had poisoned him, Carnac was blamed for not doing his job properly. Although the Le-Matoran was disgraced by this accusation, Turaga Vilnius requested that Carnac should continue working at the Coliseum due to the late Turaga Matoro's fondness of the helpful Le-Matoran. Carnac was re-employed as a Security Surveillance Officer, rather than his former job as the Turaga's personal bodyguard. This involved a slight decrease in his earnings. However, Carnac became extremely dissatisfied with his job as it no longer involved practical work and meant that he was confined to a small space full of old surveillance camera footage records.

Trivia

 * Alika's character was based off of Elizabeth Proctor in The Crucible, a play written by Arthur Miller.
 * In the Core BIONICLE Universe, Alika remained on the Southern Continent for the majority of her life and did not fall in love with Carnac as neither love nor marriage existed in this reality. However, she was eventually transformed into a Toa of Water, serving on the same team as Toa Dume until her death during the Toa/Dark Hunter War.
