"Slag." Renegade wasn't supposed to mess with the time stream. Except for the fact that Teridax was having Lihkan give Toa stones to the beings they were 'intended' to go to: Orkham, Nuhrii, Ehrye and the other Matoran. Renegade knew that Vakama and his team were intended to become Toa. This left one good option in Renegade's eyes; doing something completely unexpected.
Darting through the Ga-Metru shadows, he made his way to the Toa Suva. Trailing Lihkan's path, he found the stone the Toa Mangai had used to collect Toa Stones. Renegade collected six and used an energy multiplier to fill all six stones. Then he went to change history.
After Renegade had ensured that the real Toa Metru would get to become Toa as well, he returned to the Coliseum. As expected, Nidhiki and Krekka were being dispatched to capture Lihkan.
Renegade smiled.

Renegade watched from the shadows as the correct Toa team, the Toa Metru, assembled. After they had gone, Renegade stepped out. As Nuhrii stepped out, Renegade smiled at him.
"Hello, Nuhrii. Greetings, all of you," Renegade paused as the other Matoran appeared. "I am Renegade. I have a special mission for you."

Renegade walked through the City of Legends, followed by the Toa. He had already shown them how to use their elemental and mask powers, putting them far ahead of the Toa Metru. Renegade was casually shooting Vahki that got in their way. "Vhisola, anything?" Renegade asked. The Water Toa had received telepathy as a mask power.
"Yes, actually," came the reply. "Turn left, and it's below the street." Renegade hadn't told anyone who they were following, only saying that Vhisola should point out a certain mental pattern. Renegade turned on to the street and became intangible, drifting into the ground.
He landed in a tunnel, and then turned to follow it. The Toa came in behind him.
"Who are we following, already?" Nuhrii asked.
"Makuta Teridax." came the reply.

Tahu never saw the blow coming. A shining black hand hit the back of his neck. He fell without a sound. The hand returned to gripping the gleaming blade at the owner's side. Glowing yellow eyes narrowed.
