Chapter 4-Everything Changes

As Ackar went through the streets of Edinburgh hear people singing 'Alba' and it's alternative 'Scotland'. "Alba," they repeated. Just then someone came up to him. It was Gary; president of the Scottish Bionicle Link Co. "Loviden lok Escofla," he said in Bara Magnian. "Yon mihix kite hy otre."

"Yes I know," replied Ackar. "I need the Crystal of Life from the West mine."

"Well you speak English; which makes things easier. Right, this an extremely difficult mission. A legion of Skrall has taken over the mine and are agitating the rock monsters. None of our miners can deal with this. That's where you come in. Got it?"

"First of all:use English when ever you speak to me. Second:got it!" Then Ackar headed off to the mine. After that someone dressed in complete black kidnapped Gary.

Ackar arrived at the mine and to his surprise it sounded completely empty. He wandered off into the mine and then the noise really began. Ackar saw some Skrall forcing the miners to work without pausing for even a second. Just then one turned around and said "Enferede. Et as Ackar. Het im."

"Damn, more Bara Magnian," said Ackar. All of a sudden he saw Mata Nui. "Mata! Long time no see!"

"Oh hi Ackar," responded Mata Nui. "Stop talking, start fighting." Ackar joined in to the fight but soon he and Mata Nui realised that there was too many Skrall and only two of them. They were outnumbered; badly. Suddenly Ackar realised (if not anything else) that the mine was linked to the sea. If he could trap all the Skrall on one side of a wall he could cause the water to flood them. "Mata, we need to get all the Skrall down to the water."

"Why?"

"Just do it!" Ackar and Mata Nui started shooting the Skrall down to the water. Eventually the were all there lying on the ground beside the water. Ackar and Mata Nui ran back up the slope and they shot the cieling. The rocks came down and blocked the tunnel. Just after the tunnel blocked the flood came. There was a hole in the wall, about 10cmx10cm, which let out a yellow crystal shaped like a sphere. "That's the crystal of life," said Mata Nui.

"Well then," Ackar said "Mission accomplished!"

"Not quite," Mata Nui said, pointing at the chained miners.

"Right." Ackar and Mata Nui started unchaining all the miners. "Mission accomplished!"

"Good work Ackar, Mata Nui," said Gary. "You saved the miners, drowned the Skrall and retrieved the Crystal of Life. No one could do that in one go. Congratulations!"

"Couldn't have done it without Ackar," said Mata Nui "If he hadn't shown up I'd be dead."

"Well I'll see you two some other time!" Ackar got ready to teleport back to Bara Magna. He pressed the button on his wrist and teleported back to Bara Magna.
