Hey! What's up y'all? SaurusRock625 here with another exciting chapter of Hordika Phantom! I'm sorry I took so long to update, but with all of the other stories I've been working on, I tend to forget these things. Anyways, I've taken the liberty of fixing up my other chapters to make them easier to read. So, on with the new chapter!

Disclaimer: I still don't own Bionicle, or Danny Phantom!

Chapter 3: The Search For Keetongu!

"They said they'd be back by daybreak!" Onewa said as the group of Toa-turned-Hordika walked along the path that lead to the great temple. It had been an hour after daybreak, and the group decided to find out what was holding up the Rahaga.

"Did anyone see anything last night?" Nolan's asked her brothers in arms. The answers she got were negative ones.

"Nothin'," said Whenua. "Lots o' nothin'."

"Yeah," agreed Onewa. "Booooorring!"

"I don't know," Nuju interjected. "I found the sounds of the night quite fascinating."

Matao stopped dead in his tracks dumbfounded by what the former ice Toa had just said. He shook his head before speaking his mind.

"Right... Hey, what's taking them so long?" Matao asked in an irritated tone. "I mean, how hard is it to get directions?!"

"Well, considering they're trying to find a creature that hasn't been seen since the time before time...HARD." Nuju responded.

"They're working as hard as they can, but we need to be patient." Maddie said to the green Hordika.

"Yeah, take it easy, Matao!" Whenua said. But Matao wasn't having any of it.

"Take it easy," said Matao in a mocking voice as he ran right past his fellow Toa, and Danny's friend and family. "I have absolutely NO PATIENCE for lookin' like THIS!"

Vakama sighed and shook his head at the Toa of Air's behavior, before he and the rest of the group ran to catch up to Matao. But once they got to the great temple, what they saw wasn't what they expected. There was smoke coming out of the top windows of the temple , and they could see the light of fire in them.

"The great temple..." Vakama said as the group immediately rushed inside to search for the Rahaga hoping that no one was seriously hurt. Once inside, everyone was doing their part to find the Rahaga. That's when Nuju activated his left eye, which turned green like if one was using night vision to show activation.

"Nuju, what do you see?" Nokama asked. Everywhere Nuju looked, he saw the body temperatures of every living thing in the room. Matoran Runes showed names to identify them.

"I can't see anything..." Nuju then heard groaning. He looked over to a pile of rubble and saw the low body heat of... NORIK! "There he is! HE'S OVER THERE!"

Everyone ran over to the rubble and saw that Norik was stuck under a huge rock.

"He's trapped!" Vakama said in worry. That's when Whenua stepped up.

"Stand back!" Whenua ordered. They did as instructed, and Whenua activated his Hordika tool which acted like a construction workers jackhammer, but on a much more powerful level. The rock was pulverized, and the humans began to move the smaller rocks while our Toa heroes removed the larger boulder. When the job was done, they all gathered around the downed Rahaga.

"He's hurt!" Matao said.

"What do we do? Our experience is with ghosts, not biomechanical beings like Norik!" Jack said in worry.

"I wish Danny was here!" Sam said. Norik coughed a few times before saying two words that caused everyone, human, and Hordika alike to worry.

"He...was..." This caused a feeling of dread to well up in the pit of their stomachs.

Meanwhile: With Danny...

Ciderak's castle was a towering marvel of engineering, but it is also the prison of the sleeping Matoran. And right now, Danny is hitting the door with as much force as he can muster. But he's got company. A Visorak of each color is behind him, screeching dangerously while baring their massive fangs. Danny turned to face them, and let out a warning roar.

"You must be mistaken, Toa," came Ciderak's voice from the intercom above the doors to his castle. "We do not welcome your kind here. We EXTERMINATE them!"

There were thermal scanners on the intercom as well, and they were currently identifying our undercover hero.

"I can assure you that I am no simple Toa." Danny called. That's when the identification was complete.

"Hordika... What is your business here?" Ciderak asked in mild interest.

"To join you..." Danny said. As the Visorak behind him gave their negative input on the idea, Danny's turned to them, and discreetly winked. He then turned back to the intercom, and spoke again. "And to present proof of my allegiance!"

It is revealed that the other five Rahaga are cocooned from the neck down in the Visorak's strong silk webbing! They're stuck to a metal pole to insure that they won't get away. The doors to the castle open, and Ciderak says the two words that Danny was hoping to hear.

"Let's talk..."

Back With The Toa And Danny's Family

"Danny would NEVER do such a thing!" Maddie cried out. They just heard about what had happened from Norik, and Maddie didn't want to believe what she had just heard. She turned to the others, hoping they would back her up. "...Right?!"

Unfortunately, the others had nothing that they could say against the story. But Norik spoke up again.

"Yes, the Danny YOU know wouldn't, but he's changed! Taken over by the very beast that lurks within us all, and will take over us as well if we do not find Keetongu!" Norik said in much urgence. "A best that time makes us like to forget is even there to begin with! Hordika is its name..."

"I don't think I wanna be Hordika..." Whenua said in slight worry.

"Its not all bad Whenua," said Norik reassuringly. "As long as you don't let it take over... Being Hordika grants certain gifts!"

"If what you say is true," said Jack as he went into serious mode. "Then we need to find Keetongu as soon as possible! Hopefully, we can help Danny in the process."

Norik wasn't so sure about that last part. "I'm afraid it may be too late to help young Daniel now..." He was interrupted by Jazz.

"But we have to try! We owe my little brother that much," her face took on a look of depression. "And, I was kinda hard on him."

"And if he will not listen?" Norik asked.

"Leave that to ME!" Jazz said in determination. Norik took in what she said before he spoke up again.

"We were able to translate much of the ancient text before Danny's attack," Norik explained. "Follow the fallen tears of protodermis to the frozen lands of Ko-Metru, until they reach the sky."

Matao and Onewa stopped by a river near a small waterfall.

"Tears that reach the sky?" Matao asked himself.

"Not much of a plan, but it is one." Onewa said.

Meanwhile at Ciderak's castle, Danny was looking out at the sky from one of the balconies. Just then, Bomunga spoke up.

"Daniel... Fenton..." Hearing that last name just made Danny mad.

"That name means nothing to me know!" Danny said with a snarl. But Bomunga wouldn't give up easily.

"It can again..." Roodaka suddenly spoke up from behind Danny.

"You're right. It can," she said as she walked up to her beloved. "That is, if you wish to be weak again."

"NEVER..." Danny snarled out.

Roodaka could see that Danny's anger was beginning to get the best of him, so she walked over to him, and scratched him being the left eye hole of his mask. The feeling calmed Danny, and made him lean into her touch.

"You must remain calm, my love. Soon our plan will reach its final stage." Roodaka said soothingly. She then stood up. "Come, it is time to take a glimpse of what awaits in your future."

Okay, that's all i got for this chapter. now, I want you all to know that I have no definite update time for any of my stories. I'll update them when I can.
