Turaga Matau: Good or Evil?

I do not own Bionicle. That's it.

Prologue

Turaga Matau was walking through the forest and Toa Nuva Lewa was walking with him. An ash bear ran by and almost ran over Matau, if it wasn't for Lewa.

"Turaga, word is deepwood, darktime approaches everquick. What seems to trouble you?" Lewa looked on with worry for the Turaga. For something seemed to trouble him.

"Toa Lewa, I long to windfly as I once did. You remember Turaga Vakama, and his tale of the Toa Metru. How I wish I was there to help you defeat Makuta the first time you encountered him. Toa Lewa, leave me. I wish to walk alone. I shall contact you if I need you."

Lewa nodded his head and pulled out his katanas. He ran forward and flew into the air, leaving the Turaga to ponder. The Turaga found a small cave and something shining in the light. It looked elongated and metal. It looked like a tool. Matau recognized it as an ancient tool. Matau gasped and ran as fast as he could to it. It was a Vahki tool. The ancient protectors of Metru Nui, the Vahki, used ancient staffs of different powers. This seemed to be the staff of Command, which if used could command a Matoran to do whatever the Vahki wished for a certain amount of time. Matau looked on with wonder, and heard a voice come out of nowhere. But not just any voice.

It was the voice of Makuta.

"Turaga Matau, I've heard and listened to your plight. I can grant you your wish. To become a Toa again."

Matau's eyes widened, but then he realized who he was talking to.

"I will not be trickfooled by your deceit and lies."

"But I wish to help you. I can be helpful if you help me. But I can also be forceful if need be."

Suddenly a Vahki Bordahk grabbed it's Staff of Command and took a step towards Matau. Matau looked on in fear.

"Now what is your answer? Will you let me help you? Or am I going to have to force you to stay calm and let me help you?" Makuta said evilly.

Matau took a step back.

"I see." Makuta said, almost saddened.

"Very well."

The Vahki raised it's staff and it illuminated and Matau's vision went black.
