The Final Blow
Bara Magna, The Battle of Bara Magna

Mata Nui stood on the cliff. Teridax had almostly won. Damaged, and heavily exhausted, Mata Nui looked at Tahu. ''How could he still fight so fierce? Everything is coming to an end, and he still thinks he is able to save me. How...stupid.''

"Stupid. Yes. Exactly. He is the last survivor, who could still has hope. Look. Your friends, Gresh, Ackar, the lovely Kiina. They all gave up, and are fleeing. You, and your little friends, are going to die. The Teridax Empire will survive, as you see." Teridax said calm. "You will die. Unless you accept my offer. Join me. Together, we will rule."

"Join you? The one who actually tried to kill me? I must have turned crazy out of fear if I did that. No, I will never turn myself against them. The brave, honest beings who saved my life. Never. As they have hope, I have. And, as you said, one still has hope. So I have hope." Mata Nui raised his arm. He treathened Teridax. Teridax wasn`t impressed at all. He aimed his hand at the ground, and charged for a Gravity Blast. Mata Nui watched, with disbelief. How could he? How could he kill everyone? Just when Teridax lanched, Mata Nui made a crazy decision. He took Teridax`s arm, and raised it to one of the moons. Aqua Magna, his former home, was coming closer. Pieces fell off. Makuta Teridax turned off the beam. A shadow cast over his face. One huge piece of the moon came closer. Teridax wanted to dodge, but Mata Nui, the former possesor of the body he was in, prevented him. Teridax looked to the huge rock. It hit him right of his face.
