I do not own the Toa, the Turaga, or the Matoran. The character Shadow belongs to shadow dragon04. The rest of the characters are mine.
I'm BAAACK! Florida was awesome. Couldn't write though, cause I didn't have a computer. Anywho, on with the story!
Dimensions Apart: Chapter 13
Nazuna
"So kid, are you scared of heights?" Pohatu called, glancing down at Mahasin.
"Not yet!" the girl replied.
Pohatu and Mahasin had decided to go mountain climbing. It was great, aside from the fact that Mahasin's dress made her sweat like crazy.
Damn dress! She thought. If I weren't Muslim, I would have gotten rid of this thing awhile ago!
"Are we almost at the top?" Mahasin asked.
"Yep, just a few bios, and we'll be there."
"Good…" the girl muttered, sweat pouring from her brow.
Finally they reached the top. Once there, they looked at the view in front of them. The desert went on for miles and miles, stretching so far that the two couldn't even see the borders to the other Wahi.
"This is…amazing…" Mahasin muttered as she glanced at the surrounding area.
"It is, isn't it?" Pohatu replied, glancing at his partner.
Suddenly, the two of them heard a soft growl behind them. They whirled around only to see the leaves of a desert fern moving slightly. Cautiously, Mahasin and Pohatu crept over to the fern.
"What the hell!" Mahasin said with surprise as a baby tiger crawled out of the bush. "Um… I don't suppose tigers are native to Mata-Nui eh?"
"Tigers? Is that what that is?" Pohatu asked, pointing at the tiny creature.
"Yep, they're from my world. That's a baby tiger. I wonder where its mother is." Mahasin said, glancing around.
After seeing that there were no other tigers around, the African girl picked up the tiny animal.
"Uh Mahasin, what are you doing?" Pohatu asked.
"Taking it with us." she replied, scratching the cub behind its ears.
"You're joking, right? We can't just take in a wild animal."
"Oh come on, look at that little face! It's so cute!"
Pohatu sighed and said, "Fine keep it. But don't come crying to me when it takes off one of your fingers."
"I'll call you Nazuna." Mahasin cooed to the cub, ignoring the Toa of Stone.
Pohatu sighed again thinking, This is gonna be a long climb back down…
To be continued…
