Well, here. It's done.
The journey into the hive was a quiet one, with all of us trying to wrap our heads around this place.
Onua was the first to speak. "This cave isn't natural, or made by the bohrok." "What do you mean, earth-brother?" Lewa asked him. "The rocks are to smooth for even Matoran to have made." I rubbed my hand along the wall. Smooth, just like he said. "What do you think this means?" Gali asked. "If anything it means whatever's down there is incredibly good at mining." I stated.
Another long period of silence hung in the air. This one remained until we ran into a dead end. "Perhaps we made a bad-wrong turn?" "No, that's impossible. There were no forks in the path. Onua, see if you can break through it." I ordered. "Right."
He took his claws and swung them at the rocks. Nothing. "What? They should've broken..." This time, he used his Mask of Strength. Still, no rocks broke.
"What the karhanzi?" He muttered.
Pohatu tensed. "What is it brother?" I asked. "That isn't a real rock. See?" He ran straight through it. "What? What is this? Is this one of Makuta's tricks?" Kopaka pondered. "Damn you, Shadowy one!" Lewa added.
"Shadowy one? That's what you're gonna call him?" I asked. "It's great-better than Shadowed One. What kind of a name is Shadowed One?" He stated. That name sounds oddly familiar. I thought.
"We're getting off topic. Let's go." Gali ordered. Then, she ran through the not-so-rock. We all followed.
We spent some more time wandering, then came across another obstacle. There was a hole in the ground, and no where else to go. "Hmmm, according to my mask of vision, there are many bohrok down there." Kopaka informed us. "Well great, now what?" "I don't know, fearless leader, why don't you fly down there and hold them off for us while we make our escape?" "That could work, Frosty. I'll go down and set up a wall of fire, you guys stay here. Lewa, talk to Frosty for me." "You wouldn't dare you Mother-" "Sorry, can't hear you over the sound of my brilliant plan." "It was my plan!" "Bye!" And with that, I left.
KOPAKA'S POV
I hate Tahu. I hate him with a passion. There is nothing I hate more, other than maybe Makuta. "So then I jump-leaped onto the branch, and grabbed little Kongu by the arm, and lead him to the ever-safe village of Le-Koro." "Great story. Your story telling skills are better than a Ta-Matoran's." "Thank you, Frosty." "Don't call me that." "But Tahu said that's what you want to be called." Of course he did, the little asshole. "Well, he was mistaken." "Oh, okay." "Hey, guys? We have a problem."
"What is it, Onua?" Gali asked. "Look." He pointed behind us. Crap. "Lava!" Pohatu yelled. "Tahu hurry up you son of a bi-" "Here! Come on! The wall won't be up long!" He yelled up at us. We all hurried down the hole, and Pohatu blocked it up with rocks. "Go! Go! Go!" Tahu screamed. We all ran towards the tunnel, not giving any more thoughts about what remains to be seen. "Crap! The fire is gone! Go! I'll hold them off!" Tahu ordered. "No! You'll die!" Gali yelled back. "I don't give a damn!" And with that, he closed off the tunnel.
GALI'S POV
"Tahu..." I felt like crying. I knew him for all of 3 weeks. We didn't even get to go on a real date yet. "As annoying as he was, I'll miss him." Kopaka said. "There's no point standing here moping. He would want us to move on." Onua said. With that, we moved on. After about a minute, Pohatu walked up to me. "Sister, if you need anything, I'm here for you." "Thank you, brother." "Maybe you could be more, stone-brother." Lewa suggested. Pohatu threw a rock at him. "To early, bro." "Your no fun."
We kept moving. It was long and tedious, but we kept moving. Ten minutes passed. Nothing. Then twenty minutes passed. Still nothing. "Where are we even going?" Onua said, finally. Nobody responded. "What? Did I go mute or something? Deaf? Are you guys deaf?" I pointed forward. He looked. His jaw dropped the floor.
"Brothers, sister, close your mouths. You'll catch flies." Tahu said, probably smiling that signature smile of his under his mask. I ran up and punched him in the shoulder. "Ow!" Then, I hugged him. "Where the Karhanzi WERE you!" "A secret tunnel I found after I beat the bohrok." "There were like, 50 Tahnok!" "Exactly. I'm immune to fire, remember?" "... ... I forgot." I said, out of breath from yelling. "Well come on, I found the room where we put the Krana."
