Battle for Leadership

Battle for Leadership is a story about the final battle in Teridax Nui.

Chapter 1
Makuta Grefo, Castym, and Retkina had their base in Égh. Grefo was playing Mini Kohlii by himself, but then Retkina came in with some interesting information.

"I have a message from Jaller and Hahli," said Retkina. "They said they've just killed Helryx. They brought the body here."

Castym, Jaller, and Hahli came in with a big chest. Grefo opened it, and there was Helryx.

"Yes, she is dead. That means Retkina will be next in command to Ceasame," said Grefo. But suddenly, Helryx rose up from the chest and took Grefo by the head.

"How about alive?" said Helryx. Jaller and Hahli attacked Retkina and Castym, and Pyroketox came from nowhere with an Antidermis destroyer.

"You wanna know how I got these scars?" said Helryx, and began to tell a little story for Grefo. "A Toa of Water I know is an idiot. And one night she is going crazier than usual. Brutaka gets a blade to protect himself. She doesn't like that. Not... one... bit. So, with me watching, she takes a knife to him, laughing while she does it. Then she looks at me and she says, 'Why so serious?' She comes to me with the knife. 'Why so serious?' She sticks the blade in my mouth. 'Let's put a smile on that face.' And..." Then she looked at Castym with cold eyes.

"Why so serious?" said Helryx, and let Pyroketox kill Grefo with the Antidermis destroyer.

"Now, that business was short, but there is a lot of business for... aggressive expansion," said Helryx. "So you two Makuta are welcome to join our team. But, there is only one place left in the Order of Mata Nui, so we're gonna have... tryouts." She took a long stick and broke it in two pieces. She then threw one of the sticks. It came to Retkina.

"Take Retkina," ordered Helryx. "Pyroketox, kill Castym." They killed Castym and just walked away with Retkina, their new recruit.

The Order of Mata Nui member Kevtho and the servant Zuvak were on an island called Fato for something important. They were looking for a Toa of Stone, a former member of the Organization of Darkness. It was written that he was there.

"Can't we rest now, Kevtho?" asked Zuvak. "I'm tired."

"What?" said Kevtho. "How can you be tired in almost two minutes?"

"Well, sorry," said Zuvak. "But we have been here now for hours."

Kevtho shook his head. He has been with Zuvak since he had gotten hired by the Order of Mata Nui, and there had always been something wrong. Suddenly, they saw a little Fe-Matoran walk to the Rahi Jungle. Kevtho and Zuvak ran to him and showed the Matoran a picture of the Toa of Stone.

"Have you seen this guy?" asked Zuvak.

"Well, it was a long time ago that I saw that guy," answered the Matoran.

"So?" asked Kevtho.

"But I can't remember where he is," answered the Matoran. "But I think he ran after a Muaka years ago in this jungle." Kevtho and Zuvak thanked him for the information and walked away.

"How are we going to find him?" said Zuvak.

"I have no idea, my friend," answered Kevtho.

"So, you looking for a Toa of Stone?" asked Turaga Hantga behind them.

"Yes, we are" answered Zuvak. "So what?"

"I actually know where he is," said Hantga.

"You do?" asked Kevtho.

"Yes, I do," answered Hantga.

"Were is he?" asked both Kevtho and Zuvak.

Hantga was quiet for a while. Then he said, "You are looking at him."

Chapter 2
Takanuva, Toa of Light, teleported himself to New Takiw-Nui. There, he met two other Toa from the Order of Mata Nui.

"Welcome, Takanuva," said one of them.

"Thank you, Krakua," answered Takanuva. "But who is the other Toa of Light?"

"That's Feanor," answered Krakua.

"What are we going to do here?" asked Takanuva.

"That's easy," said Feanor. "We're going to train the Mata Nui Army."

Under Teridax Nui, a Makuta was looking for a way out. His name was Makuta Frofst, leader of the Mata Nui Army. He was going to complete his mission to take over the Organization of Darkness.

Suddenly, two Makuta were behind him: Makuta Sod and Najl. And then came Makuta Tazzuk.

"Well well," said Frofst. "Isn't it the King of Death? Or should I say the King of Stupidity?"

"Say that again and I will crush you and the Vahi," said Tazzuk angrily.

"Don't think so," said Frofst and kicked both of the Makuta and ran away.

"Take him!" ordered Tazzuk. "Don't just lie there! Get him! Kill him! Do whatever you want! All I want is for him to be gone from this island!"

Sod and Najl climbed to their feet and ran after Makuta Frofst, but he had hidden somewhere and had come to a mysterious place. It was familiar. Then he saw that it was the island of Mata Nui.

Chapter 3
Korboka Nui, base of the Enforcers of Tren Krom, was under attack. Vultraz had sent a big horde of Rahkshi to find Zektox. He had a big sword on his left hand and a Midak Skyblaster on the other. He grabbed a Matoran member of the Enforcers on the neck and smiled at him.

"You sure are an enemy," said Vultraz. "But I don't have time for some puppies like you."

"You might call me puppy," said the Matoran, "but I'm sure that you're going to be punished by the Order of Mata Nui."

Vultraz was quiet for a while. Then he said, "If the Order is so stupid to attack me, I would give them a little prank."

"What kind of prank?" said someone. It was Helryx, Retkina, Pyroketox, Jaller, and Hahli. The Rahkshi quickly reacted and moved their position to face them. They prepared their blades to blast them from Korboka Nui, but someone blocked them. It was Fritinast Grastem, chosen Great Spirit after Mata Nui.

"Bring it on, monsters," he said. "Bring it on and I will show you my lightning powers." As he did, he shocked the Rahkshi, and he shocked Vultraz as well. They were the last Rahkshi left, and now the Makuta just had Visorak.

"You saved our lives," said one member of the Enforcers of Tren Krom. "How can we ever thank you, Great Being?"

Fritinast Grastem got an idea.

"You can help me clean up this mess," he answered. "And this Shadow Matoran shall be imprisoned in Paxila now."

Kevtho and Zuvak talked with Hantga, who had been was shown to be the Toa of Stone from the Organization of Darkness. They wanted to know why he had left them, and why he hadn't told Helryx about it. But, as the important question seemed to be now: could Hantga possibly help them?

Rakabra and Veuy had discovered some kind of Kanohi mask that was poisoned. They gave the Turaga the mask so they could see what it was. The Turaga worked for hours, and after some hours they had discovered what it was.

"Do you know what it is?" asked Rakabra.

"We are not sure," answered Koved. "But it can be a mask from the Makuta. We need to work it out if we must find out."

"But that will take more than one week," said Veuy, disappointed.

"Don't worry," said Kryehk. "We have Takanuva here. He may know something about this."

"I don't know," said Veuy, unsure.

"We take care of it if Dark Vavakx begins to attack," said Rakabra. "With Manakk and Cronuk, we are more than a match for those guys."

"Very well," said Veuy. "I'm going to ask him."

When he came to the training station in New Takiw-Nui, Veuy was shocked. The tools and weapons were destroyed. and the station was almost ruined. Then he saw Takanuva with a scarf on his mouth and rope on his hands. He quickly ran to him and asked him, "What has happened here?" He took the scarf from his mouth.

Quickly, Takanuva answered. "Krakua, Feanor, and the rest of the army has been taken."

"By whom?" asked Veuy, desperate.

"Makuta..." began Takanuva. Then he took a deep breath and said the kidnapper's name. He said, slowly, "Teridax."

Chapter 4
The team of Eritko, Icarax 2, Shadow Ceasame, and Hjustematak continued their search for Tridax. They were now in Stelt to find a new weapon that could help them.

"I don't think we have anything to get a weapon with," said Shadow Ceasame. "We don't have any widgets to pay him with."

"We don't have any widgets, but we have something else," answered Eritko. "We have you and Icarax 2." Quickly, Hjustematak threw a blanket over them. Eritko opened the door, they walked in, and Eritko closed the door. They began to talk with the trader.

"What can I do for you, Toa and Skakdi?" he asked. "Is it something that going to make me rich?"

"We want a weapon that can kill Antidermis," answered Eritko.

"What's the pay?" asked the trader.

"We're paying you these guys," answered Eritko, and gave Hjustematak a signal to take off the blanket. The trader looked at Shadow Ceasame and Icarax 2 and smiled.

"These two shadow creatures going to make me rich," he said to himself.

"The Order of Mata Nui will save you two later" whispered Eritko to Shadow Ceasame. He nodded.

"Come with me and I will show you a great weapon," said the trader. Eritko and Hjustematak followed him to a chamber. The trader showed them a weapon bigger than the Antidermis destroyer: An ultimate Makuta chain.

"This is very big," said Hjustematak.

"It sure is," answered the trader. "But be careful with it. If you kill someone with it, he will turn into ashes."

Frofst saw it with his own eyes. The island of Mata Nui still existed. He saw Kini Nui and the tunnel to Mangaia. He walked in the tunnel, but this time it didn't led to Mangaia. It led to the Makuta Jail. He looked at the cells and then saw the Mata Nui Army.

"Don't worry, guys," said Frofst. "I'll take you out of here." He tried to open the cell door, but it didn't open. "It's locked and I don't have the keys," said Frofst, disappointed. "We must have a big dragon to open the cell, but it's impossible!"

"I don't think so" said someone, who opened the cell to the Mata Nui Army. It was a huge dragon with a big silver tail and a big silver Kanohi. It was Miserix.

"Have you missed me?" he said, and smiled.

Chapter 5
The Order of Mata Nui was asking the Enforcers of Tren Krom members Possesser and Vultron about an island created by Teridax. Vultron didn't know much about that island, but he knew were it was.

"Do you know were Takiw-Nui was?" asked Vultron.

"Yeah, we know," answered Jaller.

"You're going three bio northeast of the place were it was, and then look for a giant Tridax pod," informed Vultron before Jaller snapped him on the neck.

"And?" he asked.

"If you hurt him, we will never find out," said Pyroketox.

"Very well," said Jaller, and let Vultron continue.

"Go west of that Tridax pod and you will find a purple island with shadow volcanoes," ended Vultron. Helryx left and gave the other a signal to follow her. They left, except Fritinast Grastem. He looked at Vultron proud.

"Thank you for the information," he said. "We will surely find that island."

In the deep of the Pit, two members of the Organization of Darkness called Shulze and Vezon were inside. They found a dead body of a Toa of Water. They gave it Energized Antidermis, and it began to rise and get red evil eyes.

Eventually, Vezon said with a dead voice, "Good morning, Tuyet."

Kevtho, Zuvak, Hantga, and the Matoran of Fato were looking for Toa stones to make an army of Toa with. Kevtho, though, was still unhappy.

"Now we that have finally found you," he said to Hantga. "But what is the plan?"

"We're going to destroy Teridax Nui, that's the plan," answered Zuvak, angry.

"Is it something wrong, my friends?" asked Hantga.

"Everything is fine," answered Zuvak, like nothing had happened.

"Stop lying," said Kevtho.

"Stop fighting," said Hantga to both of them. "You're from the Order of Mata Nui, and as an Order of Mata Nui member, you can't fight your own partner."

Kevtho began to agree. "I think you're right" said Kevtho. "Aren't we going to find any stones, or will we die by being stomped on by our own universe?"

Chapter 6
Deriahk looked around the wastelands of Bara Magna. He had prepared for a war against Hantrek. Suddenly, a stone fell from the sky. Deriahk ran away from it. He looked up. There, a mysterious shadow looked at him.

"Welcome to Bara Magna, my friend," said the stranger. "I'm Mulkanox, leader of the Bone Hunters."

Helryx stood at the top on a big heap of sticks the Order of Mata Nui had found so they could destroy Gamulu. The Makuta of the island wasn't so happy with that.

"You're not so crazy as you look," he said.

"I told you, I'm a Toa of my word," answered Helryx and slided down the heap. The Makuta of Gamulu came closer her and looked at her, unhappy.

"What are you doing with these sticks?" he asked.

"You see, I'm a Toa with simple taste," answered Helryx, and she smiled. "I enjoy violence and battles and... Energized Protodermis."

Pyroketox and Fritinast Grastem then poured Energized Protodermis on the sticks. The Makuta tried to stop them, but Helryx took her mace and stopped him.

"You know what they say about Makuta?" said Helryx. "They are stupid."

"Toa, don't play games," said the Makuta.

"Oh, yeah?" said Helryx. "But I'm doing what I want." She put the mace to the sticks, and slowly the island began to collapse. The Makuta of Gamulu got broken-hearted, seeing the island disappear from his life.

"All you care about is power," said Helryx. "This army deserve a better and classic leader, and I'm gonna give it to them. Tell your Rahkshi they work for me now. These are my creatures."

The Makuta of Gamulu's sad face turned into an angry face. "You freak," he whispered to her.

"Freak..." said Helryx coldly, and she pointed a knife on him.

"Why don't we cut you up in pieces and feed you to the Zyglak?" said Helryx. "And then we will see how loyal a hungry Gadunka really is."

Hahli and Retkina took the Makuta to the Pit to feed the Zyglak. The Makuta of Gamulu tried to escape, but the Order of Mata Nui members were to strong for him to to get out of their arms.

"It's not about power," said Helryx. "It's about giving orders. Everything collapses."

Chapter 7
Ceasame, Makuta of Daxia, had been teleported to a strange universe.

He was in a city. In front of him was a mysterious building with strange sounds. When he looked around, he saw species that are more organic than anything. Could this be the Earth? He wasn't sure if it was so.

He explored more of the city and learned from someone that he was in Paris. So it was true? It was the Earth he was on. He wandered around the city, and the people around him wondered what he was. Something was going on.

Then he met someone he could ask. "Do you know a way out of this planet?" he asked.

"Are you an alien?" said the person, worried.

"What? No!" answered Ceasame. "I just came here by mistake, I think. Do you know any transport out of here?"

"Well, you can ask NASA," answered the person.

"What's that?" asked Ceasame.

"It's a group in America," answered the person. "But I think you need an airplane to get there. And an airport, if you know what it is."

"Were can I find this airport?" asked Ceasame.

"Outside Paris," answered the person. "I get a taxi for you."

Ceasame just became confused. But on the other side, he could trust on the mysterious species. He got something called a taxi and got to this airport. Maybe this was his chance to come home...

Eritko and Hjustematak were on an island very near the Southern Continent.

They came to two guardians guarding a door. Eritko took his gun to the first, while Hjustematak confused him and knocked him down. They knocked on the door. No one opened. Then Hjustematak opened the door himself by taking it off. Inside was a little Shadow Matoran with a weapon.

"I just want to talk," said Eritko.

"You've got a noisy way of saying hello," said the Shadow Matoran. "I'm opening for business. All you have to do is knock."

"I know all your business," said Eritko. "Someone will be talking with you about it another day. Right now, I just only have one question. Where's Tridax?"

"I don't know any Tridax," lied the Shadow Matoran.

"You helped him to upgrade his Zamor launcher," continued Eritko. "And he used it to try to steal a Kanohi on a planet not far from here. Two Makuta were killed. One Toa hurt. You're responsible for that."

"Why me?" said the Shadow Matoran. "I didn't do that. He did that."

Then Hjustematak took his claw on the Matoran's head and took the mask off. The Matoran tried to take it, but Eritko got there first and stole it from him.

"I don't know anything," said the Shadow Matoran. "Give me my mask back."

"Tell me what I want to know, or you're dead," answered Eritko. "And then we can throw your body in the water and feed you to the Rahi. So what is it gonna be?"

"He said" began the Matoran. "He said he was going to get in good with an organization. He said he was heading to the Southern Islands. That's all he said. I swear! The Southern Islands, to bring something to some people named the Confederacy of Artidax."

"Ok, thanks for the information" said Eritko, and left. Hjustematak followed him, and the Matoran got his mask back. They didn't have time to kill him now. They were now heading to the Southern Islands.

Miserix, Frofst, and the Mata Nui Army began their escape from the Makuta Jail. But then they heard two Toa calling for help. Miserix came there first, and there were Krakua and Feanor.

"We will take you out of here," said Miserix, and swung his tail, which destroyed the cell. The Toa ran out, but, unluckily, a Makuta had discovered them.

"They're escaping!" the Makuta yelled. But then Frofst put a scarf on his mask.

"Shut you mouth, or else," said Frofst.

Then the whole army escaped there, even Miserix. But Frofst stayed. He had a destiny to complete.

Chapter 8
Eritko and Hjustematak were on Destral. They were there for just one thing: the Mask of Odina. It was hidden somewhere on the island and Eritko wanted it back. But could it only be so easy to take it away from Destral.

"Is this a good idea?" asked Hjustematak.

"No, but it's the only idea I have," answered Eritko. Makuta were wandering around the island. It could be hard to get the mask, but Eritko had a plan to steal it.

"What's going on?" asked Hjustematak.

"This is Teridax's archive," answered Eritko. "On the plus side, it is so badly built so it could collapse even if we put one little hand on the walls. The Mask of Odina could be over there. But it could also be another New Ignika."

Hjustematak looked at the window, where Eritko saw the mask. "Yes, it's the mask we're looking for," said Hjustematak.

"Teridax want us to stay away from it," said Eritko. "I can see why. Let's go! We should get the mask before someone see us."

Eritko and Hjustematak climbed down the cliff to steal the mask. Luckily, the Makuta didn't see them. They came inside the archive and through all the traps around there. Eventually, they got to the corner were the mask was.

"Finally!" said Eritko. "Finally, it is in my hands once again." He put it on and turned into his Dark Hunter form: "Bounty Hunter."

Some Makuta heard the lightning from the mask and prepared to catch the two warriors. But Bounty Hunter was fast, and took his Suva Antidermis destroyer and shot it at the roof. The room began to collapse, and the Makuta began to jump around and yell: "The building is on fire!"

"Shut up," said Bounty Hunter, and he killed the two Makuta with the Antidermis destroyer. "Now we must get out of here."

Bounty Hunter and Hjustematak ran out from the burning building. They saw when it collapsed, and when the Makuta around took their boats to escape. But Bounty Hunter and Hjustematak found one of the boats and stole it. Now they were heading to the Southern Islands.

On Bara Magna, Brutaka had his own ideas. He was wandering around the Wastelands, and was looking for some help. Then he saw a green Glatorian that was going to his tribe.

"Hey, you there!" said Brutaka. The Glatorian turned around, understanding Brutaka wanted something with him.

"What can I help you with?" asked the Glatorian. "Is it something I could do?"

"We could say that it is," answered Brutaka. "In my universe, we need some Glatorian to fight against a group called the Organization of Darkness. I think you could be one of them."

"I don't get anything you're talking about," said the Glatorian. "But I could possibly follow you to your universe and help you."

"Good" said Brutaka. "What's your name?"

"I'm Miella," answered the Glatorian. "Glatorian of the Jungle Tribe."

Tangle, Toa of Ice, saw the fire in Teridax's archive. He wondered what was happening. Then he saw someone with a silver Kanohi and a Skakdi stealing a boat. He tried to follow them, but it was too late. They were already gone.

Tangle then turned around and planned to use some of his ice powers on the archive. He took his ice knife and blasted it at the fire. It turned into ice. He continued to blast ice at the fire until it became big bunch of ice.

"Now that that's done," he said, "let's return for my promise to the Order of Mata Nui."

Helryx and her team were discussing the plans to defeat the Organization of Darkness. Everyone had some ideas of how it would work. Then, in came Tangle to give his idea.

"What do you want, Toa of Ice?!" said Jaller.

"I came to give a little idea," answered Tangle.

"Let us hear," said Helryx, interested.

"Could I make a little journey to get some things that would help?" asked Tangle.

"What do you mean?" asked Retkina.

"I mean that I could travel around this universe in eighty days, I could get some weapons and items for you in the war," answered Tangle.

"That's impossible," said Pyroketox. "It would take six months for you to do that."

"And?" said Tangle.

"And the war may have already began then," answered Pyroketox.

"I think it will work," said Helryx. "If you succeed, you will be a member of the Order. If you fail, you just become a servant of the group. Deal?"

Tangle thought it could work. Then he took his hand to Helryx's, shook it and said: "Deal."

Chapter 9
Tazzuk, Fearack, and Intor had been heading to Destral to get the remains of their old weapons to build new ones. But they had guests.

Makuta Najl came closer to the three Makuta. "Could we talk?" he asked.

Tazzuk looked at both Intor and Fearack and then looked at Najl. "Sure," answered Tazzuk. "But it would be best for you don't touch my saw."

They went through the remains of the fortress Eritko had destroyed, and to the room were their Mask of Odina had been hidden.

"You should have been here," said Najl, and smiled. "A Toa of Light and a Skakdi ran into the fortress, through the traps, and then stole the mask. And then when one of our brothers spotted them, the fortress got on fire. And then they took the boat and sailed far away from this island."

Tazzuk looked at the remains of the walls. "Eritko was here," he said quietly. Then he said, "Well, that was a big problem. You know that Rahkshi and Visorak haver been trained for battle. The Shadow Toa and Shadow Matoran have their weapons fixed."

Then Fearack came closer behind Tazzuk and whispered to him. "We must release the Shadow Takanuva," he whispered.

"And of course, the Shadow Takanuva..." continued Tazzuk, and gave Fearack a sign meaning "thanks," "must be released from their chamber..."

"True, they must be released from their chamber," said Najl.

"Maybe it will be our last visit on this island." Tazzuk turned around and thought about how he would release the Shadow Takanuva. But then he saw a green monster giving signs to Najl. Tazzuk understood. Najl was a member of the Confederacy of Artidax. He took his shadow saw and pointed it at Najl while Fearack and Intor took their weapons.

"Mad Makuta," said Najl, worried. "You're a mad Makuta."

"Skakdi and Saursapien," said Tazzuk. "You will probably find both after your death."

"No," said Najl. "First rule in the New Brotherhood of Makuta: Don't betray a Makuta."

"Your group took plasma bombs against my Brotherhood," began Tazzuk. "You never trusted my leader, and betrayed my brothers with Energized Protodermis. You must attack carefully, Confederacy of Artidax. I hope I wouldn't have done the same."

"This is blasphemy," said Najl. "This is madness."

Tazzuk looked at him, surprised, and took down his saw. Then he looked at Fearack and Intor. They nodded. Tazzuk looked at Najl again.

"Madness?" he asked. It became a long silence.

"THIS IS DESTRAL!" he then yelled, and took the saw right into Najl's throat. They then ran away and took the remains of their old weapons.

Helryx and her team had been learning that the Tunnels of Teridax Nui had a so-called "system" which could be controlled by anyone. They just needed to get to Teridax Nui, but how?

Nalu had been investigating the system, and gave the instructions to Helryx. "Could this help?" he asked. "Very long instructions, I must say."

"Indeed it would help," answered Helryx. "Nalek is waiting out there. He needs you for a mission."

"Yes, my master," said Nalu and left. Suddenly, the ground began to shake and a voice came from everywhere. Teridax had something to say.

"Do you feel alright with your new lord?" he said, and laughed.

"Alright?!" yelled Helryx. "Does it look like I feel alright to you?!Do you think you can just take Mata Nui's place and then rule the universe? I will tell you something. I don't feel alright. Actually, I'm insane because of you."

"Good for you," answered the voice. "But I wanted to tell you something else."

"Which is?" asked Helryx.

"I have sent Icarax 3 to attack your base," began Teridax. "And her Rahkshi aren't really good to deal with. If you don't give us your Hau now, all of you wil die, but if you do give us the Hau, then I promise that all my Rahkshi will belong to you. Decide your faith, now."

It was panic in the city. The Matoran began to run around the streets, and the Order of Mata Nui prepared their weapons. Helryx looked at her team.

"Get some new tools and armor," she ordered. "If it's war he wants, it's what he will get."

Chapter 10
Far off in Teridax Nui...

"Keep moving, we don't have all day," said a Makuta.

As Rahkshi moved from place to place, moving crates filled with weapons, two more Makuta showed up.

"Hows everything going?" asked one of the Makuta.

"Fine right now," responded the first Makuta. "Yet the Rahkshi look worried."

"How can the Rahkshi have any feelings, especially one like worry?" asked one of the Makuta.

"I can explain that," said a dark figure as it appeared out of shadow.

"Who are you?" asked one of the Makuta.

"My name is of no importance," said the figure. "All you need to know is that you three are of no use to me anymore." As it said this, two more figures appeared from the shadows. "Kill them."

The two figures took out a spear each, and threw them at two of the Makuta, going straight through them. Then, as the being left, he heard screams and hisses as the last Makuta and his Rahkshi were killed in cold blood.

Far away, Vavakx saw a friendly face...

"Hello, brother," said Vavorkx as he walked through a portal.

"I thought I'd never see you again after Makuta Bloodrex framed you," responded Vavakx.

"Me too, but look how things went our way." As Vavorkx said this he hugs his brother. As the two hugged, everyone who was there was astonished to see such friendly feelings from Vavakx.

"Um... Vavakx," said Rakabra, as he was trying to figure out why there was so much love coming out of Vavakx.

"Oh... Sorry. It's just I haven't seen Vavorkx in millennia," said Vavakx as he regained his composure.

"Neither have we," said Kruru as he stared blankly.

"Anyways, what has happened to you all this time?" asked Vavakx.

"Well, it's a long story..." said Vavorkx as he told of his adventures.

Chapter 11
"Come on, you humans! I need to get out of here!" said Ceasame as the people threw torches at him. "Oh, that's it!"

All of a sudden, Ceasame turned into his most powerful form, Ultimate Ceasame.

"This what happens when I don't get what I want..."

A being walked through the Organization of Darkness hallway, looking for someone who could tell him where Hantrek was.

"Where are you going?"

The being turned to see a Shadow Takanuva lying in a chair quietly.

"So, you came crawling back to us."

"Not crawling."

The Makuta slowly began pulling out a weapon.

"Not rejoining,"

Then his eyes tightened.

"I'm just out for revenge."

Then a yellow blast hit the Shadow Takanuva in the face.

"I know you weren't going to tell me where Hantrek is. So I had to do it."

Heehvan was brought to Artidax to find Tridax.

"Ah, man! Can't find anything here!"

Then he saw a figure in the horizon. "Hello!"

The being didn't answer.

"Hey!"

Still no response.

"Oh come on, ya stupid Toa!"

"I'm no Toa."

"Wha—?"

"I know what you're thinking."

"Must I say, what are you?"

"I am Raity, and I know where Tridax is."

Chapter 12
and Pokermask

"So, where is he?"

"I would spoil it for you."

"Listen, I'm a member of the Order of Mata Nui and you tell you would save us!"

"But I am a keeper of time."

"What?"

"If I say where he is, the vortex of time would be destoryed."

"Jeesh."

"All I can do is help you as you go along."

"Oh right, we got a long day to go. Let's go find'm."

Helryx and her team was near a big boulder.

"Everyone ready?"

The team lifted thier heads up and down.

"Good, now Teridax's force's are blocking us from Nalek by attacking our base. Keep it quiet and don't say a word because our "New Ruler" is watching us."

Helryx turned to Shadow Jaller.

"Jaller, get that boulder of are way."

"Understood."

Jaller made a shadow hand and moved the boulder to the left, it was a room with a ladder.

Eritko and Hjustematak were sitting in their boat looking for a sign of the island of Artidax.

"Do you see anything yet?" asked Eritko.

"Not really" answered Hjustematak. "All I see is water"

"Well of course" said Eritko and laughed. Then Hjustematak spotted the sight of something.

"Hey, there's an island over there" said Hjustematak. "Maybe we can find some help over there". Eritko turned the boat at the direction to the island. They placed there boat at the edge of the dry bridge. They walked towards the house that was a few metres from the bridge. Eritko was about to knock on the door when someone yelled at them. "WHO'S OUT THERE?!".

"We're agents of a top secret organization" answered Eritko specifically. "Let us in or we will bust the door open". It was quiet for a few seconds. Then a matoran opened the door with serious eyes.

"Please sit down" he said polite. The Toa and the Skakdi stept into the house and saw a table. At the table another matoran sat there and was freezing. They took each chair and sat down. Eritko took the freezing matoran's hand and looked at him.

"Feelin fine?" he asked.

"He's not really used to that the fire isn't lit" answered the other matoran. "That's all"

"We would like to ask you guys some questions" said Eritko.

"Feel free to" answered the matoran.

"Do you know of some kind of.... how do I say.... green floating organism?" asked Eritko. Both the matoran were silent. One was looking at Eritko with a serious look. The other tried to say something but the words just didn't seem to come out.

"I..." said the freezing, pitiful matoran.

"We haven't seen anything" interupted the other matoran. Eritko had a feeling that he was lying.

"Are you really sure about that?" he asked to be sure.

"Yes, I'm sure" said the matoran. He was sweating.

"I saw something" said the other matoran all of a sudden.

"Shut up" whispered the other one. "You want to get us killed?!" Eritko was smiling. He knew he would get the truth eventually. It was just to wait and see. Hjustematak was getting worried over that something bad would happend.

"I saw something fly at the ocean...." continued the matoran.

"I said shut up" said the other one. His voice was getting louder.

"...r-ri-right above the bridge" said the freezing matoran.

"SHUT UP" yelled the other one and took a knife and cut off his hand. The matoran was screaming and crying out in pain.

"I TOLD YOU TO BE QUIET, YOU STUPID LITTLE PIECE OF GARBAGE" said the matoran and began to stab his innocent friend. Eritko knew it was time to act. He was sitting there calmly for a few seconds. Then he rose up from his chair quickly, took a gun from his back and shot the angry matoran right in the head. Eritko looked at the dead body and took down his gun. Hjustematak was just standing there completely shocked. On the floor the injured matoran was lying there and cried. He was bleeding instantly. Eritko bent down to him.

"Help me" said the matoran.

"I can't help you, my friend" answered Eritko. "But my other companions can"

"I'm going to Paxila and get some help" said Hjustematak. "You sure you will be fine?"

"Yes, I'll be fine" answered Eritko. "But first, little friend. Where did this thing fly?"

"It was heading south" answered the injured matoran. "Am I going to survive?!"

"Yes you will" said Eritko as he left the house. "....I hope"

Chapter 13
Heehvan was following Raity through the swamp infected streets of Artidax. This was his only chance to find Tridax But could he trust him? Is he a friend of foe? Maybe it was a trap or just a trick. He took no chances. He decided to play along with his plan.

"So why are you here anyways?" he asked.

"I was brought here by something dark" Raity replied. "Something that might affect this universe"

"You mean Tridax?" Heehvan asked.

"No" said Raity. "Something far worse"

"What do you mean?!" said Heehvan worried. Then all of a sudden something jumped on him with a war cry. The mysterious being threw Heehvan on the ground, grabbed his throat and pointed his blade on it.

"What are you doing here, stranger?!" he yelled. "What has brought you here?!"

"Shouldn't matter to you" Heehvan yelled back.

"STOP!" said Raity. He's with us"

"How can you be so sure about that?!" yelled Heehvan.

"I feel light inside him" replied Raity. The two beings looked at each other. The mysterious being released Heehvan and took away his blade.

"Who are you?" asked Heehvan.

"I'm Eritko" answered the mysterious being. I came here to search for Tridax. You guys know where he is?

"I can't tell you that, toa" said Raity.

"Why?" asked Eritko. Then suddenly the ground was shaking as if the Great Cataclysm was happening again. It opened itself and a huge creature made from nothing but antidermis rised from the underground. With claws threatning as a horde of visorak and a eyes read as blood. It gave out a massive roar and looked down at the beings from below.

"FEAR ME, MORTALS" it said. "I'VE FINALLY REACHED MY FINAL TRANSFORMATION". Eritko recognized that voice from the demon screams.

"TRIDAX" he yelled. "You may have escaped from Bara Magna, but no more. I'm here to destroy you... FOR GOOD!"

"HAH" the huge monster yelled. "WITH WHAT?! WITH JUST A TINY LITTLE GUN?! FACE IT, MORTAL. YOU CAN'T DEFEAT THE SUPER MAKUTA!"

Ceasame came to a strange white fortress with a flag on the top. He had heard that in that fortress lived the human's leader. He went towards the building, but was blocked by two guards. He just pushed them away into a bush and entered the fortress.

He was walking fast through the hallway towards the leader's "throne".

"Excuse me sir" said a woman. "The president would like to not be interrupted"

"Don't care" answered Ceasame as he went past her. He kicked the door open and slammed his hands on the presidents' table.

"What in Mata Nui's name is your deal with this, huh?!" he said upset.

"Excuse me?" said the president confused.

"I was literally attacked by your people with food" yelled Ceasame. "I want justice and tell them that I shall be treated with respect before I call out my brotherhood to destroy this planet for GOOD"

"Oh, you're that "Mafatu" I was told about" the president replied. "Well, it's not my concern what people see you as"

"But anyway", he continued. "I heard you were heading for NASA"

"Yes" said Ceasame.

"I could get a driver for you if you like" said the president. Now Ceasame was close. He would once again step his foot in the Matoran Universe, Bara Magna, Teridax Nui or whatever he thinks he belong. He could also use the human's intelligence for following experiments. A perfect plan to destroy everything in Teridax's path.

And so off he went from a town that was known to be Washington DC. And after a few minutes, he was there. His ultimate goal to come back to his world. In front of his eyes was the great base of NASA.
