Bionicle, the Toa Meta - Chapter 2 - The Toa Meta
"How much longer will this Booming last? I'm getting sick of hearing it" groaned Pohatu hours after Onewa's speech. "Would you rather be
fighting to the death against another Toa who wants you dead?" the gaurd asked. "I wonder why they want to destroy us, I mean, I know
they think we've gotten old and weak, while they're all new and improved, but why kill us?" "It is a test from Mata Nui, defeat these new
Toa and reclaim your titles as heroes" said Onewa as he walked up beside Pohatu, "As long as you remain a Toa, you'll face challenges,
your journey is never over and peace is always short lived." "Well you're right about one thing, we're only Toa Heroes if we win this fight."
"Here he comes, ready the catapaults" said the head gaurd as the dark brown Toa came into firing range. The Matoran did so. "Only fire
once" shouted Pohatu. "But why?" the gaurd asked. "Mask of sheilding, I don't know if it works or not so dont waste your ammunition until
we find out." "Fire Once then hold" shouted the gaurd. The weapons fired, it was just as they feared, the mask sheilded the Toa from the
attack. "What do we do now?" asked the Gaurd. "We wait" said Pohatu, watching as the New Toa neared the gate.
Meanwhile in Kini Nui Takanuva was getting restless. "Why must I stay here? my brothers may need me" "Because if they fail you're the
only one left" said a Gold Turaga. "I thought you were on their side" said Takanuva. "I only served as a guide for the Toa Meta, my brother
directs them in battle" said the Turaga. "And you are?" "I am Turaga Waru, Turaga of Legend. I already know who you are, The great
Takanuva, the Toa of light. "Well I'm hardly great" said Takanuva. "Oh no, a seventh Toa is very rare indeed, out of all the Toa I've seen,
your team is the only one in which I've seen 7, a lucky number" said Waru. "Rare? out of all the Toa you've seen?" asked Takanuva. "Yes,
after seeing the New Toa you're about to face, and hearing Vakama's story about how they were once Toa, you surely didnt think you
were the only ones did you?" "How many more?" "I did not count, there are things you have yet to see, as there are things I've yet to see,
only time will tell."
Ga-Koro was facing its own problems. "As I feared, the Toa arrived here first" said Nokama. "What do we do?" exclaimed Gali. "What
can we do?" replied Nokama sadly. "Halt, you're under arrest" said a scared voice behind the two. "Maku!" Gali looked at the Matoran
shocked. "H-Hali escaped to find Takanuva, I was ordered by Toa Lexus to arrest you and bring you to her" said Maku frightened. "It
gets us in the city" said Gali. "Dont worry, you're only doing your duty" said Nokama comfortingly to the scared Matoran. The two
followed Maku into the City of Ga-Koro. "This was perhaps the easiest Koro to take, no stone walls, just grassy huts and wooden fences"
the tall blue female Toa laughed. "You underestimate us, new Toa of water. Ga-Koro is stronger than you think" said Gali. "Please, call me
Lexus, and though I like the water, my power lies with metal, as do the rest of us, I would be the Toa of melting, and as you can see, I've
already won."
Tahu could hear the sounds of battle as he reached Ta-Koro, he had to surf across the lava because the bridges were down to keep the
enemy Toa at bay. Vakama rode along behind. "How did the gaurd find out these Toa were bad news?" asked Tahu. "Ta-Matoran are
quick to judge against outsiders, sometimes it's a flaw, but this time it worked to an advantage" said Vakama. "What is that thing?" the
gaurd asked as Tahu arrived at the gate. "Another Toa, but this one brings bad news" said Tahu, "He's not attacking?" "He's out of Range
to use his sword" said the gaurd. Suddenly a light flashed and a bridge appeared across the lava. "What's he doing?" asked Tahu. "He's
turning the lava solid and readying his own attack" said Vakama. The Red Toa ran across the solid lava as the Ta-Koro gaurd attacked the
Toa reshaped the lava to sheild him. Soon he was at the gate. "Tahu, come down and face me like a REAL Toa, you versus me, leave the
Matoran out of this." "If this battle concerns their fate then they shall take part in this battle as well" shouted Tahu. "Then so be it." With
that, the Toa began to attack the gate. "He's a fool, it's nearly impossible to break through" said Tahu. "Ready the Matoran gaurd for when
he breaks through" Vakama told the head gaurd. suddenly there was a huge light and the gate melted away. "All gaurds ready. prepare to
fire!" shouted the head gaurd. The Matoran shot into the smoke. suddenly a dark figure leapt over the gate, as he landed his crimson mask
of levitation changed into a mask of power. "You missed me" the Toa laughed as he faced the readied Tahu and Ta-Matoran.
Lewa knew not what awaited him in Le-Koro but he was ready, all seemed quiet, too quiet for what was usually such an energetic place.
Something moving in the brush caught his eye. "A statue?" Lewa questioned Matau only to find the Turaga gone. "Matau?" everything went
black.
Kopaka wasn't worried about Ko-Koro, he knew the mountain was tough to scale without knowledge of the correct path, that was, until
he found a rock solid wall of metal around the mountain. There has to be a weakness somewhere Kopaka thought as he activated his mask
of x-ray vision. all around, No weaknesses. "If Ta-Koro remains standing we could use the lift to travel over this wall" said Nuju. "Then let
us hurry, it's only a matter of time before this new ice Toa finds the path to Ko-Koro" replied Kopaka. As Kopaka neared the Volcano he
could hear the sounds of Tahu's fight. "Brother, you're on your own, I must attend to my own village" said Kopaka as he climbed the stairs
to the lift. It's a blizzard, that will slow him down at least thought Kopaka as they crossed above the wall. Suddenly the cable snapped,
Kopaka changed his mask to levitation and lowered him and Nuju safely to the ground, as soon as his mask returned to his prefered mask
of x-ray vision, a Toa appeared in his sights. "I see you made it past my wall Kopaka, you're smart, but do you have the strength?" said the
tall, thin, white colored Toa.
Onua shivered as his foot stepped into the cold water. "Flooding, not a good sign" said Whenua as he led the way using his mask of seeing
in the dark. "All the light stones are out and it's hard for even me to see down here" said Onua. "There's pathways to every Koro from this
village, making us the most vulnerable to attack, but the mine shafts make excellent places for the Matoran to hide." said Whenua. "But
with this flooding, water may have filled all escape routes" said Onua, "But once we make it to the Koro it wont matter" "I can only hope
the Matoran can handle things until we arrive" said Whenua. Suddenly the ground began to shake. "It's an Ussal crab stampede!"
exclaimed Onua as he helped Whenua to safety on a nearby ledge. "And the sound of rushing water" said Whenua. Suddenly they saw the
huge torrent of water headed straight for them. "I'll be fine, just get to the Koro!" shouted Whenua as the surrent hit him and began to wash
him back through the tunnel. Onua changed to the mask of underwater breathing and stabbed his weapons into the rock wall, weith
difficulty he made his way through the current until he came to the Koro, it was an underwater lake by now, the houses barricaded shut by
rocks and Rahi fish from Ga-Koro everywhere. "I have to hurry, it's only a matter of time before the Matoran run out of supplies inside
their homes" said Onua. he quickly looked for a promising tunnel but something pulled him out of the water. "Looking for something?"
asked the Black Toa standing before Onua.

Author's Note: I tried to include a segment from each of the Toas' locations. Sorry, Lewa fans for making his segment so short, I promise
I'll make it up to you. The real fight begins next chapter, I'll probably submit chapters slower after this. Any Special Pairings you wish to
see or would you prefer to be surprised by my choices? Just a warning, you'll probably hate me by the time I'm done with this fiction
because... SOMEONE... WILL... DIE! Stay tuned and eventually you might find out who. Also, I included many elements from the Mata
Nui online Game (such as the lift from Ta-Koro to Ko-Koro)
