Chapter 1
Botnik gazed off on Visil Nui. It was a beautiful day, and the twin suns were shimmering brightly. He had not noticed his friend, the Ko-Matoran Neco, walk up to him.

"Shame on the blackmailer," muttered Botnik.

"Beg your pardon, Botnik?"

Botnik whirled around, and saw the serious and introspective Neco standing nearby.

"What blackmail?" asked Neco.

Botnik hesitated, afraid to tell Neco the truth. "Well, I recieved an anonymous note today warning me that if I don't give this blackmailer the Ragnosha, he'll invade the island." The Ragnosha was a legendary artifact housed in the Zan Ruins, supposedly able to cast a spell on one being. Little did Botnik know the Makuta desired the Ragnosha to curse Mata Nui.

Neco nodded. "I see," he said.

Botnik added, "He also said if I don't leave the Ragnosha by the great statue of Helryx in Av-Visil by tomorrow, he'll say the time has passed."

Neco thought for a moment. "You could warn Turaga Klesi. He would know what to do."

But Botnik shook his head. "No, I can't do it. I've failed him so many times, he'd never listen to me."

"I could tell him," Neco offered.

Botnik said, "I'll think about it."

But secretly he knew he didn't have much time.



Chokar, a guard at the Po-Visil Gate, peered off into the distance the next day. What was that coming over the hill? Yes, that was a Makuta. Quite a few. And they dont look happy,'' thought Chokar.

Chokar decided to tell someone... anyone! He raced inside Po-Visil to warn the Matoran.

"Hurry, fool!" shouted Makuta Kann. If there was one thing he hated, it was a slacker. Or a Toa. Or both.

But Makuta Trigole was definitely being a slacker. One KA-WHAM of Kann's Shadow Sword on Trigole and he was running for the front lines. Muahahaha, now I have everything.... Power. Authority. ''A promotion. I'll show Teridax that he made the right choice sending me to lead this invasion,'' thought Kann.

The Makuta had reached the Po-Visil gate. "All right, men! The guard has left! We charge now! And we take over the island now!"

With a roar, the Brotherhood of Makuta's forces stormed Po-Visil.
