"The Light"
By: Green Devil
Part IV "An Epic Battle"
"Lewa! Lewa, are you alright?! Please, say something!" Pohatu yelled as he held the young Toa in his arms. He had rescued the unconscious Toa of air from the falling rock just as it was about to crush him. The other Toa Nuva had all awoken when the cavern was caving in and they had all made it outside. Now the only problems were their injuries and, of course, Lewa. Plus, after their little encounter with the Bohrok-Kal they didn't feel too confident about their strength without the use of their elements.
"Argh! Those Bohrok-Kal are really getting on my nerves." Tahu growled.
"I know how you feel Tahu. We all do. The Bohrok-Kal are a lot stronger than anything else we've faced. It's going be pretty hard to figure out a way to defeat them."
"You're right Kopaka, it will be." Gali agreed.
"So what are we gonna do? Lewa's knocked out, we're all hurt, and we don't have a clue where the Kal are." Onua pointed out.
"True. I guess we should all head back to or villages for now, unless you all wanna do a little more searching before-"
"NO!" Everyone shouted.
"Fine! Everyone, go back to your villages and heal. When we're all okay THEN we'll split up and search for the Kal." Tahu said.
"It shouldn't take us long to heal though, our injuries are all minor. It's Lewa we should all be worried about." Onua said. "Here, Pohatu give him to me. I'll take him back to his village since it's right on my way." Pohatu nodded and placed Lewa in Onua's arms.
"You think he'll be all right?" Pohatu asked.
"I'm sure he will." Onua answered and headed toward the forest. The other Toa Nuva said their goodbyes and also left for their own villages.
*~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~*
Once Lewa was feeling better Tahu called for a meeting at the Kini Nui. Lewa hurriedly swung through the trees eager to see all his friend again and to finally thank Pohatu for rescuing him. He hadn't seen or heard from the others since the fight with the Bohrok-Kal and that had been about three days ago. Onua had come to visit him once and that's when he told Lewa about what had happened after he passed out but, that was the only time he saw one of the others. That was why he in such a hurry to get to the Kini Nui, to see the other Toa Nuva again.
When he finally got there he saw that everyone was already there and discussing something. He jumped to the ground and bounded over to them.
"Lewa! Good to see you." Onua said as he wrapped his arm around the young one's shoulder.
"Nice to see you too Onua." Lewa replied.
"Glad to see you're okay." Pohatu said as Lewa approached him.
"Well, I wouldn't be here if it wasn't for you. Thanks."
"Aww, don't mention it. Just helping out a friend you know." Pohatu answered, blushing in embarrassment. Lewa turned to sit down but instead came face to face with an angry looking Tahu.
"You're late." He stated bluntly.
"Well sorry I couldn't get here sooner but I had some important things to take care of first." Lewa replied.
"Whatever . . .So, back to what I was saying. We need to split up if we wish to find these Bohrok any time soon. Pohatu, you, Onua, and Gali will go to the Bahrag lair and see what you can find out a bout their whereabouts. Kopaka, Lewa, and I will search for the Kal and try to stop them." Tahu ordered.
"Great, I get the team with personality." Lewa said, his voice dripping with sarcasm.
"Quiet." Kopaka hissed. Lewa abruptly shut up.
"Alright then. Send Pohatu to get us if you find anything important. Now lets move out!" The two groups turned away from each other and went in separate directions.
*~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~*
"Tahu! Can we rest for a minute? I'm tired!" Lewa whined. They had been walking around the island for about five hours already and hadn't taken a break once. From the Kini Nui they had searched the forest, looked through Ta-Koro, and even inspected the surrounding waters of Ga-Koro, but still no sign of the Kal. They were now traveling through the desert of Po-Wahi with the sun high in the sky, shining on them.
"Quit your whining Lewa. You're young. You can take it." Tahu replied. Lewa mumbled something under his breath and continued to walk.
"You know, maybe he's right Tahu. We've been walking non-stop for five hours and to tell you the truth, this heat is starting to get to me." Kopaka said.
"Really? Cause I feel just fine." Tahu mocked.
"Tahu!" Kopaka shouted.
"Fine! We'll find some shade and rest for awhile." Tahu said. They continued walking until they found a rock cliff that shaded a little area. They sat down and rested.
"So what are we gonna do if we find them?"
"Not 'if' Lewa, 'when'. When we find them, we attack. Simple as that." Tahu answered.
"But we were all beaten so easily last time. What makes you think anything will be different this time around? Especially since there's only three of us." Lewa replied.
"What's different is that you're here with us. Your power will defeat them easily."
"But I can't just summon it at will you know. Someone I care about has to be in real danger and I know you're not going to put yourselves in danger willingly."
"Well with our elements gone, we might not have to do it willingly." Kopaka stated. Tahu nodded in agreement.
"I guess you're right but . . .Never mind." Lewa mumbled. The next few minutes were spent in silence. They stayed in their resting-place a little while longer, then started on their search again. Another hour passed and still no sign of any of the Kal, until.
"What was that noise?" Tahu asked.
"Sounded like an explosion." Lewa said.
"I'll check." Kopaka activated his mask and searched ahead of them. Sure enough, there had been an explosion up ahead and the green Kal was the reason.
"The green Lehvak-Kal is over there. Ready for a fight Lewa?" Kopaka asked.
"As ready as I'll ever be." Lewa answered. The three then went forward to battle the Lehvak-Kal.
*~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~*
"So, what are we doing down here again?" Pohatu asked.
"We're looking for the Bahrag." Gali answered. "Onua can you see anything down here?"
"I don't see anything but . . .I think I hear something. Shh." Onua walked a little farther while the others stayed back. He closed his eyes and listened carefully. Loud footsteps were heard and were getting closer.
"What's coming?"
"I don't know yet Pohatu, but it doesn't sound very friendly." Onua answered.
"Maybe it's one of the Bohrok-Kal?" Gali suggested.
"Could be but, until we know for certain, draw your weapons and be on guard." Onua ordered. The other two obeyed and got their weapons ready. A few seconds later, the brown Kal appeared from around a corner.
"It seems you were right Gali. It appears to be the brown Pahrak- Kal." When it saw the three Toa Nuva it smiled, and attacked.
*~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~*
"Kopaka, look out!" The white Toa was blasted through the air and landed on his back in a sand dune. He was still for a moment then rose to his feet ready to fight some more.
"Kopaka, are you okay?"
"I'm fine Tahu. Don't worry about me, help Lewa." Kopaka answered. After he was thrown back, Lewa had jumped on Lehvak-Kal from behind and was now trying to open the silver plate protecting it's krana-kal, but was failing miserably.
Lehvak-Kal's pincers snapped at Lewa trying to throw him off and succeeded when he grabbed the Toa's leg. Lewa screamed in pain as the pincer closed around his right knee and he was ripped off of the Kal's back. He was held upside down to look straight into the Lehvak-Kal's blood red eyes.
"You are beginning to be a real nuisance. You were the one who wiped out the rest of the Lehvak and Nuhvok army in one blast. Hmm. Your power could be very useful but, once we awaken our queens, no power will be able to defeat us." Lehvak-Kal laughed and closed his pincers tighter making Lewa cry out. The Kal was about to shatter Lewa's knee but Tahu appeared and rammed the Lehvak-Kal, causing him to slide across the sand drop Lewa into Kopaka's arms.
"Are you okay Lewa?" the white Toa asked.
"M-my leg . . .feels like it's broken." Lewa muttered in response.
"Stay here. We'll take care of the Kal." Kopaka gently set Lewa on the ground and joined Tahu in his fight with the Bohrok-Kal.
The rest of the fight wasn't very long though. In the end, the green Kal knocked Tahu and Kopaka to the ground unconscious. He then fled the scene leaving Lewa on his own.
*~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~*
"Ugh. What happened? Are we still alive?" a groggy Pohatu asked.
"I believe we are, as for what happened well, I'm not really sure about that." Onua answered.
"He just plowed right through us! If we don't find the Bahrag soon Mata Nui is doomed." Gali said sadly.
"Well if that Kal was searching down here and didn't find the Bahrag, I doubt we will. Let's go back up to the surface." Onua said. The other two agreed and turned to leave the tunnel. Once above ground they saw Pahrak- Kal melting away a hole in a mountainside with the other Kal. When he was done he reveled another tunnel system.
"The Bahrag must be in there. Pohatu, find the others and get them back here as fast as you can." Gali whispered so that the Bohrok-Kal wouldn't notice them. Pohatu nodded and took off in search of Tahu, Kopaka, and Lewa. He searched the desert, running at top speed, and found them in a few seconds sitting in the shade of a cliff.
"There you three are! Come on! We've found where the Bahrag might be but we gotta hurry 'cause the Bohrok-Kal are already there!"
"Hold on Pohatu, Lewa's leg is injured and we're not sure if it's broken or not." Tahu said.
"Can you walk on it Lewa?" Pohatu asked.
"Barely. I can walk but I can't run." Lewa said as he slowly limped forward to demonstrate.
"Hmm. Tahu, you and Kopaka are okay, right?" the fire Toa nodded. "Good. I'll carry Lewa and you two follow me. We have to get back as fast as we can." Pohatu scooped Lewa up in his arms and started running at normal speed so that Tahu and Kopaka could keep up. When they finally made it to the Bahrag lair, they found Gali and Onua patiently waiting for them. Pohatu set Lewa down and walked up to them.
"There, we're all together. Now lets go kick some Bohrok-Kal butt!" Pohatu shouted. The Toa nodded and set fourth into the new cave, not knowing what they were in for.
The Toa Nuva walked quietly through the dark tunnel; Lewa limping behind while Onua supported him. When they reached the end of the tunnel, they found that there was a hole in the floor just big enough for hem to fit through one at a time.
"You sure you can do this Lewa?" Tahu asked.
"I'm sure. All I need is my mask. I'm just gonna check to see what's going on and then I'll come and get you."
"Just don't get spotted." Onua ordered. Lewa nodded, activated his Miru Nuva, and levitated through the hole. As he floated down, he saw the six Bohrok-Kal gathered around a pillar of what looked like protodermis and a floating cube. They each held the Toa symbol they had stolen and it seemed like something inside the pillar was talking to the Kal. Lewa squinted to try to get a better look and what he saw was the Bahrag trapped inside the protoderm tower. Lewa gasped and levitated back up to the others.
Once with the other Toa he shouted, "The Bahrag are down there but are trapped in a tower of protodermis! The Bohrok-Kal are about to release them using our symbols!"
"Well then let's get down there and stop them!" Tahu exclaimed and jumped through the hole, the others doing the same. They all landed on their feet and proceeded to confront the Kal.
"Give us back our symbols!" Pohatu yelled as he charged a Kal. He was about to connect with his target but was thrown back by a force field of some kind.
"Pohatu, are you alright?" Onua asked.
"I'm okay, but that thing hurts!" Pohatu replied. Onua lifted a boulder over his head and hurled it at the Kal. Once it connected with the force field it shattered. Onua looked at Pohatu in horror.
"Yeah, I'll bet it hurt! You're lucky that wasn't you!" Onua exclaimed.
"Yeah. Well, what are we going to do Tahu?" the brown Toa asked.
"We are gonna use something I never thought I'd have to use, the Vahi." Tahu replied. His Hau glowed and changed into an orange mask that oddly resembled a butterfly, the Vahi, mask of time.
"Where-When did you get that?" Gali asked in awe.
"Turaga Vakama entrusted me with it shortly before all this started."
"Why didn't you ever tell us about it?" Kopaka asked.
"Because I was only to use it in a complete emergency and I'd say this is as good a time as any." Tahu activated the Vahi and froze the Kal in time . . .or so he thought.
"I don't think the mask is working!" Lewa yelled.
"They're still moving!" Onua exclaimed.
"It just slowed them down, it didn't stop them." Kopaka added.
"What the-I think their krana-kal are actually getting stronger." Pohatu said puzzled.
"Tahu, don't waste you're energy if it's not going to work! I have an idea!" Gali shouted. Tahu hesitantly complied and summoned his Hau again.
"If we all send the last of our strength through our symbols, the Kal might be consumed by their own power." The Toa Nuva obediently listened to the Toa of water and channeled their power through their symbols and into the Bohrok-Kal.
"What?! So much . . .power!" Gahlok-Kal exclaimed. "With this much strength, we won't have to awaken our queens so soon."
"No! They're trying to trick you! Unlock us from our prison now!" the blue Bahrag yelled.
"Their power is too much for you!" the red Bahrag roared.
"Don't worry queens, we'll take over the island for you with these stronger powers. You won't even have to awaken-"
"Ahhhhh!" Kohrak-Kal yelled as he was surrounded by his sonic sound. It was too much for him, his body shattered.
"Kohrak-Kal!" the blue Bahrag shouted.
"Lehvak-Kal!" the red Bahrag yelled as the green Kal was consumed by his own air vacuum. Pahrak-Kal's plasma energy flowed uncontrollably. The ground underneath him melted away and he disappeared. Nuhvok-Kal's control over gravity turned on him and forced him into a small box, which then vanished. Tahnok-Kal's electrical energy ended up electrifying him to the wall of the chasm, doomed to stay there until his power ran dry. Gahlok-Kal however, would not give up so easily.
"No! My power will not disobey me! With this much power, I can free my queens on my own!" The blue Kal yelled. He ran toward the floating cube but just as he was about to place the symbol on it, his power over magnetism reached out to some big chunks of magnetic rock and the pieces went flying at him with terrific force. They crashed into Gahlok-Kal and nothing more was heard from him.
"Is it over?" Lewa asked hopefully.
"Yeah Lewa, it's over." Tahu answered. "Now lets go back to our homes." Kopaka nodded and made a staircase of ice leading to the hole of the chasm. They all climbed out, walked into the sunlight using the tunnels, then backed away as Onua created an earthquake to collapse the mountain on the still trapped Bahrag.
"Well Toa Nuva, until next time." Tahu said.
"Yeah, until we're needed again!" Lewa added happily. The Toa Nuva said their good-byes and went their separate ways, Lewa still noticably limping though it didn't bother him. He was in a great mood now, just happy to be getting back to his home without having to be carried while asleep in someone else's arms because of the Light.
*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~The End~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*
A/N: Wow that came out longer than I thought it would. Well, there you have it, the end of "The Light". Hope you all liked! I could write a sequel with the Rahkshi but that's only if someone wants me too. Or I could just leave it the way it is. It doesn't matter to me, I'm on vacation! No school for me! XD! *Sigh* And now it's time to go to sleep . . .Oh, and please leave a review! ^_^!

"Quiet." Kopaka hissed. Lewa abruptly shut up.
"Alright then. Send Pohatu to get us if you find anything important. Now lets move out!" The two groups turned away from each other and went in separate directions.
*~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~*

"I'm fine Tahu. Don't worry about me, help Lewa." Kopaka answered. After he was thrown back, Lewa had jumped on Lehvak-Kal from behind and was now trying to open the silver plate protecting it's krana-kal, but was failing miserably.

"Can you walk on it Lewa?" Pohatu asked.
"Barely. I can walk but I can't run." Lewa said as he slowly limped forward to demonstrate.

Pohatu scooped Lewa up in his arms and started running at normal speed so that Tahu and Kopaka could keep up. When they finally made it to the Bahrag lair, they found Gali and Onua patiently waiting for them. Pohatu set Lewa down and walked up to them.
"There, we're all together. Now lets go kick some Bohrok-Kal butt!" Pohatu shouted. The Toa nodded and set fourth into the new cave, not knowing what they were in for.
The Toa Nuva walked quietly through the dark tunnel; Lewa limping behind while Onua supported him. When they reached the end of the tunnel, they found that there was a hole in the floor just big enough for hem to fit through one at a time.
"You sure you can do this Lewa?" Tahu asked.
"I'm sure. All I need is my mask. I'm just gonna check to see what's going on and then I'll come and get you."
"Just don't get spotted." Onua ordered. Lewa nodded, activated his Miru Nuva, and levitated through the hole. As he floated down, he saw the six Bohrok-Kal gathered around a pillar of what looked like protodermis and a floating cube. They each held the Toa symbol they had stolen and it seemed like something inside the pillar was talking to the Kal. Lewa squinted to try to get a better look and what he saw was the Bahrag trapped inside the protoderm tower. Lewa gasped and levitated back up to the others.

"Pohatu, are you alright?" Onua asked.
"I'm okay, but that thing hurts!" Pohatu replied. Onua lifted a boulder over his head and hurled it at the Kal. Once it connected with the force field it shattered. Onua looked at Pohatu in horror.

"It just slowed them down, it didn't stop them." Kopaka added.
"What the-I think their krana-kal are actually getting stronger." Pohatu said puzzled.
"Tahu, don't waste you're energy if it's not going to work! I have an idea!" Gali shouted. Tahu hesitantly complied and summoned his Hau again.
"If we all send the last of our strength through our symbols, the Kal might be consumed by their own power." The Toa Nuva obediently listened to the Toa of water and channeled their power through their symbols and into the Bohrok-Kal.
"What?! So much . . .power!" Gahlok-Kal exclaimed. "With this much strength, we won't have to awaken our queens so soon."
"No! They're trying to trick you! Unlock us from our prison now!" the blue Bahrag yelled.
"Their power is too much for you!" the red Bahrag roared.
"Don't worry queens, we'll take over the island for you with these stronger powers. You won't even have to awaken-"
"Ahhhhh!" Kohrak-Kal yelled as he was surrounded by his sonic sound. It was too much for him, his body shattered.
"Kohrak-Kal!" the blue Bahrag shouted.
"Lehvak-Kal!" the red Bahrag yelled as the green Kal was consumed by his own air vacuum. Pahrak-Kal's plasma energy flowed uncontrollably. The ground underneath him melted away and he disappeared. Nuhvok-Kal's control over gravity turned on him and forced him into a small box, which then vanished. Tahnok-Kal's electrical energy ended up electrifying him to the wall of the chasm, doomed to stay there until his power ran dry. Gahlok-Kal however, would not give up so easily.
"No! My power will not disobey me! With this much power, I can free my queens on my own!" The blue Kal yelled. He ran toward the floating cube but just as he was about to place the symbol on it, his power over magnetism reached out to some big chunks of magnetic rock and the pieces went flying at him with terrific force. They crashed into Gahlok-Kal and nothing more was heard from him.
"Is it over?" Lewa asked hopefully.
"Yeah Lewa, it's over." Tahu answered. "Now lets go back to our homes." Kopaka nodded and made a staircase of ice leading to the hole of the chasm. They all climbed out, walked into the sunlight using the tunnels, then backed away as Onua created an earthquake to collapse the mountain on the still trapped Bahrag.
"Well Toa Nuva, until next time." Tahu said.
"Yeah, until we're needed again!" Lewa added happily. The Toa Nuva said their good-byes and went their separate ways, Lewa still noticably limping though it didn't bother him. He was in a great mood now, just happy to be getting back to his home without having to be carried while asleep in someone else's arms because of the Light.

A/N: Wow that came out longer than I thought it would. Well, there you have it, the end of "The Light". Hope you all liked! I could write a sequel with the Rahkshi but that's only if someone wants me too. Or I could just leave it the way it is. It doesn't matter to me, I'm on vacation! No school for me! XD! *Sigh* And now it's time to go to sleep . . .Oh, and please leave a review! ^_^!
