(Tajun)
Devon, Mata Nui, Click, Luna, Spyro, Cynder, Hiccup, Toothless, Astrid, Stormfly, Fishlegs, Meatlug, Snotlout, Hookfang, Tuffnut, Ruffnut, Barf and Belch, Ackar and Kiina finally made it to the village of Tajun. But it wasn't quite what they expected it to be. Smoke stirred throughout the whole village. Small fires still burned. The entire village was like a ghost town. It was completely deserted. Devon and his friends were horrified by the destruction of the village
"What happened here?" Hiccup asks
"The entire village is destroyed." Astrid says
Fishlegs was spooked by a hut which collapsed into nothing but ash and cinders. He backed up against Meatlug away from the rubble that startled him
"That's an understatement." Fishlegs says
"Whoa." Tuffnut and Ruffnut say in unison looking around at all the burnt houses
"Who would do this?" Cynder asks
"This is horrible." Spyro says
"Did any of the villagers even manage to escape?" Devon asks
"Perhaps they might have." Luna says
"It looks like the Agori got away." Ackar says
"The village. Our homes. This is my fault. I should've been here to help. Where's Tarix and Gresh? We had a training session today. He's just a rookie. He wouldn't have been prepared for-" Kiina says before Ackar interrupts her
"There!" Ackar says pointing toward a wall of smoke
Everyone turns toward the smoke and see a figure walking out to them. It was Gresh, a Glatorian from the Twin Villages of Tesara. He was holding his right-shoulder and coughing
"Gresh! He's hurt!" Kiina exclaims
The group walks over to Gresh. Ackar and Mata Nui grab hold of Gresh by his arms
"Easy, son." Ackar says
"Gah. I'm fine. I'll be fine." Gresh says
Gresh tries to take a step forward, but he falls down on one knee crying out in pain
"Argh!" Gresh cries out
"Just shut up and let us help you." Kiina says
"We need to get out of sight." Mata Nui says
"Agreed." Devon says
Devon looks toward Kiina
"Kiina, the cavern." Devon says
"Right. The entrance is this way." Kiina says
The group follows Kiina as she leads them through the village
"Skrall...Bone...Hunters...working together..." Gresh says weakly
"Impossible. They're rival tribes." Ackar says
"No. Kiina, I watched them destroy your village." Gresh says
In that moment, Gresh falls unconscious. Mata Nui and Ackar set Gresh down against a large rock
"Gresh. He's not-" Kiina says before Ackar interrupts her
"He's still alive." Ackar says
"But not for long if that savage sees us." Mata Nui says looking elsewhere in the canyon
The group looks down the cliff where they stood. Down below, they saw a large figure walking into the village. His name was Tuma, Leader of the Skrall
Tuma as stated was the Leader of the Skrall and the Rock Tribe. He was also an exceptionally skilled warrior. He carried a large black sword and a saw blade-like shield
Tuma walked through the destroyed village of Tajun with a group of Bone Hunters following him
"Uh, who's that?" Fishlegs asks nervously
"Tuma? Leader of the Skrall?" Kiina says confused
"What the boy says is true. Bone Hunters have joined forces with the Skrall!" Ackar says
"We can't stay here. We have to keep moving to the cavern. Let's go." Devon says
With that said, the group quietly back away and continue heading for the cavern
(Moments later)
The heroes followed Kiina to a stone wall
"They won't find us in here." Kiina says
Kiina takes her trident and presses it against a certain spot on the wall. The spot where Kiina presses her trident sinks into the wall and a large doorway opens up for the group
"This way." Kiina says
Everyone follows Kiina inside the cavern. Once everyone was inside, the doorway closes behind them. As they were following Kiina, Mata Nui couldn't help but look at the walls. On the walls were hexagon-like symbols used as letters. Mata Nui felt a familiarity with the symbols on the walls
"Wait. These glyphs. I-" Mata Nui says before Kiina interrupts him
"Later. Right now, we have to take care of Gresh. The cavern is just ahead." Kiina says
With that said, the group continues deeper into the cavern and they soon found it. The group was amazed by what they saw inside. Inside the large cavern were seven chambers containing seven different elemets. Fire, Water, Jungle, Sand, Rock, and Ice
"Whoa." Everyone says
"Look at this. Incredible." Ackar says
"Ok. What exactly are we looking at?" Snotlout asks
"Each chamber contains elements that were once plentiful on the surface of Bara Magna." Kiina says
The group walks down to the center of the cavern. In the center was pathways that led to each of the chambers, a large round stone pedestal, and a low ramp leading to doorway with the symbol of the Three Virtues on it
"Lay him down over there." Kiina says
Ackar and Mata Nui place the unconscious Gresh down on the stone pedestal. Suddenly, they hear a noise coming from the pathway leading to the chamber of the jungle element. Ackar steps forward and draws his sword
"Show yourself! Now!" Ackar shouts
A blue Agori named Berix steps out
"Ok, ok, ok. Everything's ok. It's just me. Berix"
Berix was as stated a male Agori of the Water Tribe. He was a Scavenger, collecting ruined equipment which he salvages and repairs. Unfortunately, he was disliked by other villagers and Glatorian who mistake his scavenging for thievery
"You filthy little thief! I told you if I ever caught you down here again, I'd-" Kiina says going for Berix
Berix moves away from Kiina and hides behind Mata Nui's leg
"This place doesn't belong to you. And look, I am not a thief. I am a collector." Berix says
Berix then eyes Mata Nui's mask
"Ooh. I like that mask. Could I just have it?" Berix says reaching for Mata Nui's mask while he leaned away from him
"Come here you!" Kiina says
Kiina began chasing Berix around Mata Nui
"You know, I have a right to collect anything I want." Berix says
"Oh yeah?" Kiina says
Kiina continues chasing Berix as he circles around Mata Nui trying to avoid her while Devon and his friends watched. Tuffnut and Ruffnut laugh as they watch Kiina chase Berix around
"It's just junk that nobody wants." Berix says
"Then, why do you want it?" Kiina asks
"Cause I like fixing things. And, I'm really good at it too. I mean, come on. Who do you think got the lights working, huh?" Berix says
"I was wondering about that." Kiina says looking up at the lights
Berix notices Click on Mata Nui's shoulder
"Hey, you got a-" Berix says before the group interrupts him
"He knows." Everyone says in unison
"Ever fixed an injured Glatorian?" Mata Nui asks
"No way! He's not touching Gresh!" Kiina says
"The boy needs help, Kiina." Ackar says
"Well, I've had to patch myself up a few times." Berix says
A small metal nut fell off Berix' arm while he smiles sheepishly
"Yeah. Like every time you've been pounded on for stealing." Kiina says
"Collecting. Maybe you should let me work on your ears next, Kiina." Berix says
Berix jumps onto the stone pedestal to begin working on Gresh. Berix reaches into his pouch and begins taking out some small tools until Kiina grabs his hand
"He better pull through. You got that?" Kiina says warning Berix
"Yeah. No pressure." Berix says
Ackar grabs Kiina and gently pulls her away
"What if he's the traitor?" Kiina asks
"Then he'll pay." Ackar says
While Berix began working on Gresh, the group turns their attention toward Mata Nui as he looked around his surroundings
"Something wrong?" Kiina asks
"I don't know. There's a familiarity to this place." Mata Nui says
"It must've been created by the old rulers of Bara Magna." Ackar says
"The Great Beings." Kiina mutters
"The Great Beings were here?" Mata Nui asks immediately remembering the name
"Great Destroyers is more like it." Kiina says
"Why do you speak out against the Great Beings?" Mata Nui asks
"Because they wrecked our world. That's why." Kiina says
Kiina then gestures to the chamber of the jungle with her trident
"This was once Bara Magna, before the Great Beings left us here to rot." Kiina says
"You have no proof of this, Kiina. They could've just ended up buried in the ruins." Ackar says
"No. The Great Beings did not fall here. That much I am sure of." Mata Nui says
"Who are the Great Beings anyway?" Astrid asks
"Yeah. They must sound really important." Fishlegs says
"The Great Beings were once powerful majestic beings who created the world upon which we stand on. The ones who were powerful enough to create the life around us. But they had mysteriously vanished into myth and legend. No one knows what happened to them." Mata Nui says
"Well, that pretty much sums it up." Hiccup says
They soon turned to the door with the symbol of the Three Virtues on it
"There's something familiar." Devon says
"You've seen this symbol before?" Mata Nui asks
"Yes. We have." Devon says
"How?" Mata Nui asks
Devon looks toward his friends who nods at him
"I think it's time we explained ourselves." Devon says
Within the next couple of minutes, Devon and his friends explained everything as best as they could to Mata Nui. They told them of their adventures so far on the Island of Mata-Nui, the island that was named after him, and the City of Metru-Nui where they had met Vakama and the Toa Metru who at this point were now Turaga. They even told Mata Nui about The Inheritor, but they didn't mention that he was one of his greatest friends. They also told him about the Dark Lord of the Shadows, but they never mentioned that he was in fact Makuta Teridax, his brother
"I believe I now understand. Thank you all for explaining everything." Mata Nui says
The group re-focus their attention back toward the doorway
"What is beyond this?" Mata Nui asks
"No idea. Never been able to get it open." Kiina says
"Me neither. But I bet there's something good through there." Berix says
"Keep dreaming! And pay attention to what you're doing, thief!" Kiina says
Devon and Mata Nui walk toward the door
"I recognize this symbol." Mata Nui says
Mata Nui places his hand on the door. The moment he did, they symbol began glowing with light. Mata Nui's mask and the gem on Devon's chest along with his Kingdom Hearts Amulet also glowed with light. The door began to open sliding down into the ground revealing a set of stairs which led to a secret chamber. Everyone entered the chamber while Berix continued working on Gresh. The secret chamber had green glowing symbols on all the walls inside. These symbols were the same ones that Mata Nui saw outside on the walls of the cavern. There were even glowing symbols on the sides of the staircase. The group went in
"What is all this?" Ackar asks
"Yeah. What is all this stuff?" Snotlout says
"It looks like this could've been some sort of laboratory." Mata Nui says
"In that case, nobody touch anything." Devon says
Hiccup looks toward Snotlout, Tuffnut, and Ruffnut
"You hear that, guys? Don't touch anything." Hiccup says
"Yeah, yeah." Snotlout says
Tuffnut and Ruffnut nod understanding Hiccup. The group continued exploring the laboratory until they hear Mata Nui gasp in shock
"It cannot be!" Mata Nui exclaims
Everyone rushed over to Mata Nui
"What's wrong?" Devon asks
"You look like you've seen a ghost." Ackar says
"I have." Mata Nui says
The group looks toward where Mata Nui was looking. Their attention was directed toward an image of a large robot
"What in the name of Thor is that?" Hiccup asks
"Whatever it is, it sure looks big." Astrid says
"That thing could probably be a whole lot bigger than the Red Death and the Screaming Death combined." Fishlegs says nervously
"You know that thing?" Kiina asks
"Yes. A gigantic mechanical being. Just like the one now enslaving my people." Mata Nui says
Devon and his friends could only guess who Mata Nui was referring to
"Makuta." Devon whispers
"Wait. You think the Great Beings had something to do with it." Kiina says
"No. The responsibility lies on my shoulders alone. This place. These symbols. We're on the right track." Mata Nui says
(Moments later)
Two Bone Hunters were patrolling the destroyed village of Tajun. Ackar silently sneaks up to them out of the smoke and takes them both down banging their heads together
"You get to have all the fun. I get the next two." Kiina says
"You can have them. Let's move. We need to warn the other villages about the Skrall and Bone Hunters uniting." Ackar says
"And that we have a traitor on the inside." Kiina says
The group moves through the canyon with the smoke covering their exit. Gresh was now fixed and patched up
"How are you holding up?" Mata Nui asks
"I'm fine. Thanks to Berix." Gresh says
"No problem." Berix says
"But I could use a new weapon. The Skrall shredded my blade." Gresh says
"Get in line." Kiina says referring to her trident which had it's point missing on one side
"I might be able to-" Berix says walking over to Kiina
"Don't even think about it." Kiina says
"I am sorry about your weapons. But I must continue my journey." Mata Nui says
"And we'll go with you." Devon says
"You're not gonna help us?" Gresh asks
"I have my own battles to fight." Mata Nui says
"And we'll help you see it finished." Devon says
"Trust me, Mata Nui, I've seen you fight. You're not ready. Stay and I'll teach you and your friends everything I know." Ackar says
Ackar soon remembers back in Vulcanus when Mata Nui changed the Vorox Tail into his sword
"Wait, what you did with the Vorox tail and Click, could it work with these?" Ackar asks referring to his sword while holding it out
Kiina and Gresh also held their weapons out
"I don't know. This mask gave me new life. But I still don't completely understand it's power." Mata Nui says
"The same could be said for me. I may finally be the Legendary Keyblade Master I was destined to be, I am familiar with the powers I have used before, and I know The Inheritor has shared with me much of what he knows, but I bet there are still many secrets of the Keyblade that have yet to be discovered." Devon says looking at his Keyblade: Soul Calibur
"I think this mask only works on things that are or were alive." Mata Nui says
"No problem. Most Glatorian weapons are made of bone or claw." Berix says
"Collected a few, have you?" Kiina asks with a raised eyebrow
"It's worth a try." Mata Nui says
"That's the idea. You won't know unless you take a shot at it." Devon says
Mata Nui takes hold of Ackar's sword and holds it up to his mask
"Together. As one mind." Mata Nui says
The Mask of Life began to glow. Ackar's sword also begins to glow. But unlike Mata Nui's mask which glowed with golden light, Ackar's sword glowed with orange light. Everyone shielded themselves from the light
"It's working." Kiina says
The light soon dimmed down and everyone turned their attention toward Ackar's sword. The sword now had a blade shaped like a flame. The moment Ackar took back his sword, it's blade unleashed a beam of flames
"What?" Ackar says surprised
"Of course! Fire is your elemental power. The Mask of Life has simply ignited it. You have become a true Toa." Mata Nui says
Ackar's Flame Sword stopped and the flames it emitted dimmed down
"Thank you, friend." Ackar says placing his Right-hand on Mata Nui's shoulder
"Strange. I have worn many titles, been called alot of things, but never as 'friend.'" Mata Nui says
Mata Nui then places his hand on Ackar's shoulder. Devon looks toward his friends and smiles while they smile back at him
"Me next!" Kiina says holding her trident out
(Moments later)
The group was now outside of Tajun traveling across the Dunes of Treason to the Twin Villages of Tesara. Mata Nui, Ackar, Gresh, and Kiina were riding the Thornatus V9 while Berix drived as Devon, Luna, Spyro, Cynder, the Viking Teens and their dragons flied low over them. Mata Nui had changed Kiina's trident and Gresh's blade before they left. Kiina and Gresh now had elemental powers like Ackar
"Unfair. I score out this clawed out new blade, Mata Nui tells me I got awesome Toa powers, but none of you would let me test them out." Gresh says
"You mean like this?" Kiina asks
In that moment, Kiina jumps into the air, takes her new Vapor Trident and fires a powerful jet of water at a large rock breaking it to pieces. Berix stops the vehicle and Devon and his friends land on the ground near them
"Aw, come on! Just a little test?" Gresh says
"Patience is the first lesson in becoming a great Glatorian." Ackar says
"Oh, I think this is pretty great!" Kiina says twirling her trident
Kiina then shoots another jet of water. Ackar jumps in and unleashes a jet of fire from his Flame Sword. The two beams clash with neither side pushing each other
"Looks like it's a stand off." Kiina says
Suddenly, a powerful gust of wind blows into the clash cancelling both beams out. The attack was made by Gresh who used his new green blade. Gresh laughs
"I can blow you both away." Gresh says
"Better yet, why don't we both combine it." Kiina says
"Enough!" Ackar says
Everyone turns their attention toward Ackar
"There's more to winning than fancy weapons. And let me tell you, Mata Nui isn't the only one who could use a few tips." Ackar says
Gresh grunts. Berix was laughing until Kiina knocks him off the vehicle
"Stop it. Both of you. Pay attention and you might actually learn something. Like this!" Ackar says
In that moment, Ackar takes his sword and quickly cleaves it down on Mata Nui who quickly blocks using his own sword, but he was knocked back by the force of the sudden attack. Mata Nui staggers back and knocks into Kiina while Click fell off his shoulder
"Learn to read your opponent's next move before it happens." Ackar says
Kiina sat up and saw that Click was now on her arm
"I'm warning you. I'll bite back." Kiina says
Ackar picks up Click using his fingers
"Study their fighting style, find their weakness, and use it against them." Ackar says
Ackar tosses Click over to Mata Nui. Click lands on Mata Nui's hand and quickly crawls up his arm to his shoulder. He then clicks and chirps at Ackar
"If you can." Ackar says
Author's Note: Secrets have been uncovered. Devon, Mata Nui arrive at the village of Tajun and find it to be completely destroyed. All of the Agori managed to escape the crisis. The group then meets a Glatorian named Gresh who had been injured during the attack. Gresh tells them that the Bone Hunters were working alongside the Rock Tribe of the Skrall. They follow Kiina to the mysterious cavern and eventually they found it. Inside, they I uncover many secrets including the plans of the Great Spirit Robot which was now seized by Makuta Teridax. They also meet an Agori named Berix who accompanies them. Afterwards, Mata Nui learns more about the Mask of Life giving Ackar, Kiina, and Gresh elemental powers. Now the group are on their way to the Twin Villages of Tesara to warn the Agori and Glatorians about the Bone Hunters and Skrall uniting. I haven't been getting alot of reviews lately. So please, let me know what you guys think. No flames please. Hope you guys like and don't forget to review!
