Chapter 4

Tahu and Gali arrived at Xia.

"So tell me, Tahu. What do we have to do on this island?" asked Gali.

"We have to infiltrate in the League's primary base of oparations and blow the thing sky high," replied a smiling Tahu.

"Are you going to unleash a Nova blast?" asked Gali concern filling her voice.

Tahu gave a slight nod, but also thought that it was dangerous for her.

"Well I have a plan Gali. Listen..."

Helryx was standing near her bath when suddenly someone knocked on the heavy armored door.

"Who is it?" she asked.

"It's Makuta Miserix and a friend of his, they want to speak with you," replied Axonn.

"Come in," she said with her usual soft voice.

"Helryx, do you know who killed my deputy?" asked Miserix with an angry voice.

"Easy Miserix, why so angry? I didn't do it. But if you want answers, fine then. We have a spy in the League of Six Kingdoms, his name is Takadox and he said he saw Kalmah killing a Makuta. You can buy the spy from us if you want," replied Helryx.

"Helryx, I won't buy anything from you."

"Miserix you can't just take spies and things from me like in the old times, when you and I were..."

"Helryx shut your mouth, I will buy Takadox from you. Give him this Tablet of Transit and tell him to come to Destral. I will meet him there," interupted Miserix, "Come Firena let's go to our ship and return to Destral."

"Always a pleasure, Miserix," said Helryx and returned to her bath.

Miserix and Firena walked to the Rimus' ship but didn't notice the being that followed them the whole time. The being came out of the forest, took his communicator from his back and activated it.

"Pridak, they are headed for the ambush, be ready my lord," said the being and returned in the forest

Teridax walked in the forest of Destral, he wanted to train on his own and make his mentor proud. But then he saw something lingering in the forest. He followed it and came to a small cave, then suddenly he heard voices in his head. The voices said

You are powerfull

For you are to become the great shadow

You will rise and rule the universe

The voices kept repeating the lines in his head.

Teridax screamed from the pain then suddenly the pain stopped. He found himself in a forest full of darkness. Three huge Tarakava aproached him and they attacked.

"Rimus you must really like that Ga-Matoran," said Miserix.

Rimus' ship was sealing on the ocean, they were heading back to Zarda Nui.

"She was my girlfriend but she was killed by a horde of Tarakava on my former island, Hinau Nui," replied Rimus tears forming in his eyes as he remebered how she died.

"Tell me Rimus, I want to know."

I was standing on the beach with Hala, my girlfriend. It was as always a peacefull sundown but suddenly we saw a strange light coming from across the ocean.

It was coming in fast, we quickly went to Hinuari Temple where our six Toa: Tahu, Gali, Kopaka, Lewa, Pohatu and Onua were.

The ship that we saw earlier, appeared to be a drop-ship for War-Rahi. The beasts that were inside it, came ashore and began destroying the beach. Then the gaint ship turned upsidedown because of a mechanism in the ship.

Another gate opened and an intire army of Skakdi appeared from behind the gate and attacked some Matoran. Then the last Skakdi that came out of the ship wore gold armor with some white and had a red face. He blasted a Matoran in the back with his gaint Rhotuka-Cannon.

We saw all of this happening from the forest. The Toa arrived and tried to fend them off but it was lost. We had to retreat to the hidden base in the vulcano, in the centre of the island.

But then suddenly two Tarakava came infront of Hala and began punching with their arms. I watched in horror as she fell to the ground. Rivers of blood came out of her body, Onua saw it happen and kicked the two Tarakava in the ocean using his Mask of Strength.

I ruched to her side, I rocked her in my arms. Then her heartlight went out, she was dead. Tears ran from my eyes, from that moment I hated Rahi. I had always loved sea-Rahi untill they killed the one person I loved most.

After the war on the island with the Skakdi warlord, I went to an island called Sardok Nui. There they said that it was best for me to go to another island called Zarda Nui. Because an evil warlord wanted to conquer the island.

"And so I came to be a captain on my new peacefull island," said Rimus as he finished his story.

"Sir, we are entering a thick fog," yelled a Matoran from the deck of the ship.

Miserix took a telescope from his back and saw something in the fog. He zoomed in and saw what the object in the fog was. It was a warship.
