(A/N): Attention readers. I want to apologize on the long hiatus for Bionicle's. I have been focusing on other stories lately and been putting this story off for too long. Sorry if it feels short but I'm trying to get things back up to speed. Hope you can forgive me on this. Thank you.

("And so the Toa continue to travel far and wide across the great land. So far they have received new Toa along the way. A Toa of Air, Shadow and water along with two Great Being's and the Matoran and Agori by his side for the journey as they search for the next Toa.")
The Toa and the rest roam through The Wastelands as there was nothing but sand as they travel through the sandstorm.
"So Zuro, where are supposed to find the next Toa out here?" Torix asks
"The visions tell me a new Toa is out here. Malgai, what do you see?" Zuro asks Malgai
Malgai was wearing her Arthron mask to see through the storm. "I'm picking up something on my scanner."
"The storms are getting worse. We must find shelter." Kadima yells to Zuro
"Look, Zuro a cave." Tan points to an open cave as everyone ran into the giant metal cave as Vantrax found this cave mysterious.
"This cave looks very strange. It doesn't look like an ordinary cave."
"I'll have to agree with Vantrax. Something doesn't feel right about this cave." Artemis admits
Malgai checks her sensors. "Somethings in here but I don't see anything in here."
"Well then let's check."
"Oh I don't like this." Tau worries
Torix draws his blade and stabs into the wall as the giant cave roar and echoed and the walls begin to grind gears.
(Zuro yelling to everyone) "Everyone get out, now!"
Everyone ran out of the cave as it continues grinding until Tan began looking to his left and right seeing a giant constructional three fingered claws rising out of the sand. Everybody began looking up into the sky seeing a giant constructional gorilla like creature with giant vortex grinder as his mouth as it starts to suck everything in like a black hole.
"What the Makuta is that?" Torix asks
"I told you its Giant Civer." Tau answers
Everybody began to run from the vortex as it was sucking them in as they all began floating. Zuro stabs his sword into the ground holding. As others begin to fly away Zuro grabs Torix's foot following along as Torix grabs Malgai's hand and the Matoran and Gala held to each other. Vantrax and Artemis stood their grounds with their weapons. Muai begins to lose grip from Tau's hand as she flew away.
"Tau!" Muai yelling to Tau.
"Maui!" Tau yelling back to Tau.
Everyone was shocked to see her fly away. As Muai thought this was end without knowing a mysterious brown and black colored female Stone Glatorian wearing a helmet similar to Ackar's helmet on a custom made sand board. She grabs Muai at the right time before her doom.
Muai looks up to her as the Glatorian was holding her body. "Who are you?" Muai asks
"Oh who me? Just your friendly neighborhood Glatorian." The Glatorian sees Muai's friends down at where they are. "Are those your friends down there?" She asks
"Yes, can you help them?"
"Don't worry, I can handle this. Hang on."
She surfs down the down the hill and pulls out a Seismic Pickaxe and began shooting the Civer's face and eyes. Muai was curious of where she got it from.
"Where did you get that?" Muai asks.
"I salvaged it." She continuing shooting in the face giving the rest enough time to escape. The Toa managed to get away in time as she continues draws it attention to a large quick sand. Large enough for the Civer.
"Are you cross wired?! We're going straight into quick sand!"
"Don't worry. I got this!"
She surfs down the hill straight into the quick sand as the Civer follows and it begins sinking trying to get out. She quickly zoomed out using the Civers vortex to shoot her out and surfed to safety. The Civer roars as it continues sinking.
While the rest were shocked to see Muai to get sucked away. Tau was extremely down from the situation.
"I'm sorry, Tau." Kadima kneels down to Tau.
"I can't believe she's gone. I never even told her how I feel about her."
In a distance she comes back surfing on the sand as everyone watches her cheering.
"Who's that?" Vantrax asks
"I know that voice from anywhere. Hey! Hey!" Torix answers as he yells out to her while she was coming down. Everybody witnesses her skills on her sand board as Zuro begins recognizing her in his visions. She sticks the landing and shakes off the sand. Tau looks up to her with a downed face.
"Woo-Hoo!"
"Muai, is she…?"
Muai reveals herself hanging on to her back as she waves at him. She jumps down and Tau gave her a huge hug.
"Oh Muai I thought you were Civer dinner. I…
Tan and Gala look at him as if he was cross wired.
…wished you guys hadn't see that."
Zuro approaches the stone Glatorian as she raises an optic wondering what is going on.
"You."
"Yes me. Who else who could it be?" She says playfully.
"I've been looking for you."
"You've been looking for me?"
"Yes we have."
"Well… Torix?" She notices him behind Zuro
"Nikia? It is you." Torix noticing as well as they both hugged each other.
"Torix, you know this Glatorian?" Artemis asks
"You better believe it because this is my little sister, Nikia."
"Hello everyone. Now who in the Kanohi are you guys?" She giggles greeting herself to everyone and asking them all.
"Nikia, these are my friends. Zuro; the Glatorian of Ice, Kadima; Toa of Shadow, Malgai; Toa of Water my Toa friends. These guys are Tan, Tau, Gala and Muai. And finally the Great Beings Vantrax and Artemis."
"Greetings young Glatorian." Vantrax greets to her.
Ontar begins barking at Nikia as she smiles at him and pets him. "Who's this guy?"
"This is Ontar. He's a special friend of mine." Zuro answers as he pets him and Ontar rubs his nose into Zuro's hand.
"Oh you have Iron Wolf. I have a Kikanalo." She places her sand board on her back and makes a calling to her Kikanalo.
"What was that?" Malgai asks.
"That was a Kikanalo calling. Look here he comes now." They all begin to hear a sonic roar and felt the ground rumbling as they see it running towards them and stops skidding the floor to Nikia and roars.
"This is my special friend, Chichu."
Chichu roars as he rubs his head into Nikia and licks her mask. She begins petting him and rubs his underbelly as he turns onto his back.
"That's a good boy. Who's a good boy? So what's this about?" Nikia asks Zuro.
"We need to speak to you immediately."
(Whispers to Zuro) "Well to you the truth. We can't speak out here. Bad things happen out here."
"Well then let's find a place and we'll talk from there."
"We'll head back to my place. Come on and follow me." Nikia jumps onto Chichu's back as everybody returned to their vehicles.
"Hi-ho and off we go!" Nikia takes off on her Kikanalo as they all followed.
"Now I see where Torix got his wonderful personality." Kadima mumbles to himself regretfully.
They all follow Nikia back to her home but without knowing there was a dark mysterious female shadow Vortixx figure standing in the distance still following them. They were not alone as Evolved Vorox follows as well. After their long drive the Toa reached to the area called Po-Neo arriving into a small town. As they look around seeing mostly builder Matoran carving and working on building projects. They next pull into cubical building which is Nikia's home. What they find is full of containers of items and many other things.
"Look at all of these things." Tan looks over at everything.
"Don't worry about the mess."
While they were getting the tour of Nikia's place Ontar sniffs Chichu's rear end as Chichu licks Ontar.
"Okay guys. What is it that you wanted?" Nikia asks Zuro and Artemis as they all sit.
"A great evil has been reawakened. A once Great Being like Vantrax and Artemis but became cruel, cold hearted and became the king of shadows, the father of the darkness. Makuta Nazar but he refers to himself as Lord Nazar."
"Sounds serious."
"Indeed it is." Artemis agreeing
"Okay but why do you need me?" Nikia asks Zuro.
"My visions from Mata Nui himself that I've been guided by that lead me to you."
"Torix, is he cross wired?"
"To tell you the truth. He isn't. He said the same thing when he found me. So I'd listen to him sister."
"We are trying to…" Suddenly interrupted by a lightning storm as everybody ran outside to see what it was. Until a large amount of dark clouds formed into one and red eyes slowly develop before them. Kadima begins to sense the shadows.
"I hear... whispers in the shadows."
"What in the Kanohi is that?" Tan asks
"Fingertips on the surface of my mind." Kadima continues speaking out
"Uh… yes. Thank you for that input, Kadima."
Lightening appears as the clouds as Kadima struggles more.
"The whispers are louder. I will endure."
The dark cloud finally forms as Kadima recognizes that power.
"They speak a word. A name… (Gasps) He is here!"
The red eyes fully appear on them staring down on them.
"It is only a message." Kadima states
(Dark voice) "Your light Toa! Give me your will!"
Evolved Vorox's appears before them as they're was a Titan size Vorox and skilled evolved Zesks with small feminine bodies. They all screeched at them and charged at them.
"Here they come." Nikia draws her sand board as Tau was confused.
"What do you plan to do with your board?" Tau asks
Nikia splits the board into dual blades and smiles at him. "That's what I plan to do." She winks at him and charges into battle as the Zesks go in as well.
"We need to help her." Kadima suggests but Torix stops him.
"No, she's got this."
The others continue watch Nikia. Nikia charges at them as she knocks one Zesk down to the floor with the bottom of her hilt. The Titan Vorox begins shooting his large thornax blaster towards at her as she slides to avoid the blasts. She then twirls in the air with her dual blades hitting the two Vorox from both sides knocking them out. She draws her Seismic Pickaxe and began shooting with destructive energy blasts as Titan took a few shots doing little damaging to it but still standing.
"Oh aren't you tough one?" Nikia comments as she clenches her fist and rocks began to form a large hand. "Pohatu taught me how to do that by the way."
Everyone was amazed to see her using her power already. The hand forms into a fist as it rises into the air over the Titan Vorox and begins slamming down on it flat repeatedly until it was buried in the sand.
"Amazing. She can already use her powers."
"Yes trained by the best."
Artemis approaches Zuro. "You have all seen his face. It was his hand that transformed the great stone tribe into mutated vicious Vorox and Zesks."
"Mata Nui." Malgai says with a shocking surprise.
"Hold on. Nikia, how come you're not a Vorox like they are?" Zuro questions Nikia.
"Okay, where do I start? It was about after the great battle. When Mata Nui brought life back to Magna. The stone tribe were about to return to normal but sadly they didn't. I was one of the lucky ones that got to change back. I don't even remember being a Vorox. Mata Nui those were some dark times."
"That's why we need you."
"Why?" Nikia asks
"Because like Artemis told you. The great evil like you just saw was Makuta Lord Nazar. He has already taken many to be his minions including my brother; Bron. We need to assemble a Toa team if we are to defeat him. If we don't he destroy our way of life and take this world. Will you join us on our journey?" Zuro asks.
Nikia thinks about joining Zuro's team as Torix jumps on her. "Come on sister. It'll be like old times."
"Well… since you put it like that. I guess I'm in."
"That's wonderful."
"Woohoo! It'll be like old times." Torix jumps in excitement.
"Okay. Let me go get ready." Nikia runs into her home and gathers a few things into her pouches and bags. She then ties them onto Chichu's saddle and jumps on. "Okay everyone. I'm ready to go."
"Alright now we…" Zuro once again receives a vision from Mata Nui as it was showing underground and showing large Earth Glatorian protecting him.
(Mata Nui) "A great guardian shall be waiting for you. A guardian that will be loyal, protective, strong and caring. Time is short. Hurry Zuro."
The visions stop as he returns to reality. "What did you see?" Kadima asks.
"I was underground and something about a guardian. A guardian that will be loyal, protective, strong and caring."
"Who could that be?" Gala asks.
"I'm not so sure. But we can't afford waste any more time."
Tau begins looking over the map. "Hold on. You said underground. If I'm correct that must be in Onu-Neo."
"Then it's settled. Onwards to Onu-Neo."
"Alright! Giddy up Chichu!" Nikia kicks her heels on Chichu's and runs off.
"Hey wait up!" The rest jumped into their vehicles, start them up and took off following Nikia.
Meanwhile at the Makuta Temple as he was standing the porch of the tower with his staff in front of him. In front of him are the Vorox kneeling before him as he rules them over. Roodaka approaches behind him and bows for him.
"My sweet. The Vorox belong to you… …the rest will face extermination."
"No my darling… Gather them. I will take them all and reclaim my world."
Miserix approaches him "What of your army, Master?"
"Soon the time will come to release my newborn and I will wreak havoc on this world. And maybe the universe…"
"This is their end and I will be the new beginning…"
TO BE CONTINUED…
