Breaking Destiny

Chapter One
Matok scanned the wasteland, looking for some sort of cover. Exo-Toa and Rahkshi would be swarming this place by nightfall, but Rilfer was injured and they couldn't risk moving him for now. "They" meant Matok and his two friends Rilfer and Gonku. Gonku was, as a usual Toa of Air, light spirited and Rilfer had all the bravery and fierceness you could hope for from a Toa of Fire. As for Matok, he was a Toa of Ice, and a confused one at that. When he had transformed from Matoran to Toa, he had become a bodily reincarnation of the dead hero Toa Matoro. Matok had been trying to cope with that just as Teridax became ruler of the the universe. Metru Nui was invaded and Matok had taken his two other friends on a small boat and they had sailed to some island. From there, they became wanderers, looking for somebody to join, somebody to fight alongside. As leader of the team, Matok felt responsible to scout ahead, although he didn't have the nimblest of bodies. Suddenly, he saw something move in the distance. Then, he heard the chanting of a few dozen Rahkshi on the move. Alarms went off in Matok's mind. They couldn't move Rilfer, who had been severely hurt by a psychotic energy hound, very far. But if they didn't, they would all be caught by this large patrol. And Rahkshi were the eyes and ears of Teridax. If he knew there were three more Toa in the universe, they were dead meat. Matok turned back to sprint to his friends, only to face a big Exo-Toa. Matok brandished his weapon but the Exo-Toa knocked him down and pinned him to the ground. More gathered around it. Matok struggled uselessly. But apparently the Exo-Toa got bored with him because it tied him to a rock with some chains and walked away. Matok was relieved for the moment until he saw the dozen Rahkshi just a few feet away. -

Half a mile away, Gonku heard some familiar screams. They sounded like they belonged to Matok, and a pit of fear appeared in his stomach. Then he looked behind him and saw twenty Rahkshi glaring at him.
