IC: Fetix replied, "This may sound a bit overconfident, but taking down evil beings one at a time isn't enough for me, nor will it have any real effect in the end. I wish defeating Makuta were that easy, but it's not. He has to be gotten rid of with a single, momentous action, or else he'll just regenerate and keep attacking us. Another idea I had would be to evactuate the island by creating a new one with elemental powers and a ton of boats to carry everyone there, but Makuta will probably just follow us there, and even if he doesn't, the Great Spirit himself will be completely at his mercy. The question is, though: is it worth sacrificing Mata Nui to save thousands of lesser lives?"

[Dual Cee]

IC: Toa KakopaI think we have to have trust in the legend and hope six other toa will rise and defait makuta,and in the meantime we will enforce order on the islandwhat do you think?

[742mph]

IC: "I suppose that is our best course of action after all, at least for now," Fetix answered. "I still believe that there is a way to defeat Makuta once and for all, and that we can be a part of it, but it might not really be that time yet. For now, we'll just help with defending those who can't defend themselves."

[Dual Cee]

IC: Toa Kakopa"Ok then" he said while he entered the cave "Then the Great Spirital Allignement is createdand you're in the ruling council, by the way can you use your mask to expand the cave we need a prison and a place were the council can sit"

[742mph]

IC: "Whoa, slow down," Fetix said. "Who said anything about a council? We don't need to have some kind of vast organization, just help get rid of any threats that happen to pop up. I'd be happy to expand the shelter a bit, but don't you think it would be a bad idea to keep a whole bunch of extremely dangerous criminals locked up in one place? Most of these people can slice through Protosteel and survive direct hits from elemental blasts easily. There's no way we'd be able to keep them contained."

[Dual Cee]

IC: Toa Kakopa"Well then we'll only lock up rahi,matoran and other criminals we know they can not make laser of manipulate iron, what do you think ?"

[742mph]

"Regardless of their abilities," Fetix replied, "these beings are going to find ways to escape. To have a functional jail, bars can't be the only things keeping the prisoners in." He took a break from speaking for a few seconds in order to expand the dome-shaped shelter to nearly twice its original size. "What we could use, though, is a jailer. Someone who looks intimidating and is also very physically powerful would work well. Do you know of anyone like that?" Fetix brought walls of Iron up from the ground and outward from the sides of the dome, dividing it into four lower rooms and an open second floor. "Hopefully this will be an adequately large headquarters building," he added.

[Dual Cee]

IC: Toa Kakopa "No i don't know such a being, but indeed we need one, well i think we have some recruiting to do.I'll find someone who can make us weapons and you can maybe search for a jailer what do you think, I think I must take your mask for a while.

[742mph]

"It doesn't sound like a bad idea," Fetix responded, "but why do you need a Volitak? Is there anything partularly stealthy about searching for weaponsmiths? Besides, I could conjure up some Protosteel weapons if you needed me to, although I couldn't give them any intrinsic powers."

[Dual Cee]

Ic Toa Kakopa"Well there is a good weaponsmith in ta-koro, but I am not realy wanted there thats why, so is thet the Plan?

[742mph]

"I'm fine with it," Fetix said, "but why is is that you're not welcome in Ta-Koro?" He handed Kakopa his Volitak. "Also, would you mind lending me your Garai in the meantime so I'm not extremely tired and weakened?"

IC: Auron:"Let's just assume that's part of the whole 'natural' look, and not made out of large and epic battles."

[Silvan Haven]

Kale Ironshaper- FowardiIC: The tour ended with Kale showing the Skakdi the room he would be assigned if he were to join the crew before bringing him back up to the deck."And there you have it. A full tour of the Po-koro warship, the Fowardi. What do you think?"

[25K Now!]

IC: [The Fourth]"The sky is particularly nice today, is it not?"

[Dual Cee]

"I'm fine with it," Fetix said, "but why is is that you're not welcome in Ta-Koro?" He handed Kakopa his Volitak. "Also, would you mind lending me your Garai in the meantime so I'm not extremely tired and weakened?"

IC: Toa Kakopa:"Yup sure" he said as he handed fetix his mask," ok I'm off, hope you'll find a jailkeeper"He walked out off the cave took his gukko and flew to Ta-Koro

[742mph]

IC: Toa FetixI wonder why he doesn't want me to know about what he did in Ta-Koro that got him a bad reputation there. Must have been pretty serious, whatever it was. Fetix sat for a moment, considering where to search for a jailer first. Ta-Koro? No, he'd already looked there for people to assist him in his previous quest, only to find that everyone was extremely busy all the time. Ko-Koro? They were a bit too anti-violence for the kind of being he had in mind. Onu-Koro... Fetix remembered encountering someone in Onu-Koro once who would be perfect for the job. He immediately got up and exited Po-Wahi in search of his acquaintance.

[sunflower]

IC: Aelynn"Yeah," the Toa of Iron agreed, following behind Auron as they made their way to Po-Koro.

[AuRon the champion]

IC: Auron:As the two entered the village, Auron looked around in amazement, "So fancy! All of this made out of stone..."

[Axilus Prime]

IC: A battered ship, holding together just barely, sailed onto the horizon of the Po-Koro docks. "Land ho?" Sorapak attempted to take a swig of rum, to find that his bottle was empty. "I hate it when that happens." He climbed down from the mask, putting it back on his waist. "Drink up, me hearties, yo-ho..."Bahokosar stirred, stretching. He loosened up his muscles ..."AARGH!" He slumped back down below deck. "Ye'll be carryin' me there and ye won't laugh a peep, or I'll hang ya by yer entrails, bring ye back from the dead, and kill ye once more again when I get better.""Well." Sorapak refilled his rum below deck. "That doesn't sound very relaxing at all. Stow it, we're about to make port."Bahokosar wryly laughed. "Aye. Now I be in a relaxin' position and feelin' as edgy as ever, but elsewise I'd be in extreme pain."The ship approached the Po-Koro docks, near another ship, relatively speaking. "Drop anchor!"The Toa of Iron looked up and raised an eyebrow."...oh. Right." Sorapak took a swig of rum, put back his bottle, and lowered the anchor himself. "When I'm injured it hurts, when I'm not I do all the work. Pretend it's all a bad dream, then..." He hummed to himself, then collapsed of exhaustion. "Jianzha. How are you feelin'?"

[Constructelf]

IC: Jianzha"I feel fine," I replied, "But not as fine as I'd like. I'm sore all over, not that I can't handle it, but it would be better if we got to that hospital soon. Even now I feel dizzy. That thing that attacked us, it was certainly worth it's rum." Humming myself, I limped around the hold, checking the supplies. The food that I hadn't thrown at that berserker during that fight seemed to be keeping well. However, I had lost my pistol and my twilight blade during that fight; I was going to have to find a new set of weaponry for myself. I reached for a jar on a high shelf only to cry out in pain as a bandaged wound suddenly hurt. "Guess I'm not stretching those muscles for awhile..." I said to myself.

[Axilus Prime]

IC: "So you can stand. Excellent! You'll be carrying Bahokosar." Before Jianzha could object, Sorapak got on the dock and started walking briskly, as it hurt to run."To Po-Koro!"

[sunflower]

IC: Aelynn"Uh, wow," the Toa of Iron said in agreement. Stone. It was all just stone.IC: DehkazA cool breeze blew in from the sea, providing relief to the dry heat that seemed to cover Po-Wahi like a blanket, always there, never letting up. The bunched sails flapped in the wind, a sound that Dehkaz had grown used to since aquiring his ship. It was a sound that he expected to hear for the rest of his time with the Guard, a sound that he'd grown to like. With the waves crashing against the armored hull, it turned into a rather calming sound for Dehkaz.The gunmetal armored Toa was currently in his cabin, papers, scrolls, and tablets cover the desk in the corner, while light filtered into the space from two windows on either side of the room. The Toa of Magnetism was staring out the port window, the thick crystal somewhat distorting the image, although, Dehkaz didn't think it took anything away from the scene before him. The sea, commonly known as the Endless Ocean, a name that had truth to it, as, staring out over it, it did really seem endless. The sea was a wonderful place. A place that reminded Dehkaz of what little specks all of this really was.Himself, his ship, the villages, even the entire island meant nothing compared to the great expance before him. The sea was natural, neither good nor evil. It was what it was, a storm created by it was a storm, not an evil monster. Just as a calm day was a calm day, the sea had no "mood" as some liked to put it. Something like that couldn't be given characteristics familar to beings of flesh and metal.It was primeval, an unpredictable force of nature.The view of this marvel was suddenly cut off from the Toa of Magnetism, as another ship pulled into port. Dehkaz frowned, and had half a mind to go and have a few words with the owners of said ship. Sighing, Dehkaz let his annoyance go, and turned back to reading over the pirates they were to ambush soon.

[Constructelf]

IC JianzhaJianzha groaned.

[Dual Cee]

IC: toa lhimataHe landed in front of the cavein the quarry and brought the vorrixx inside, there was a small room made for some new members, he putted the vortixx in his bed and putted some fruit he picked from a just-created tree onA table next to the bed, he left the room while he said: "I'll be here if you need me, dont mind to zsk something"

[Light]

OOC: Deven from Le.IC: Deven was grateful for the help, he lay back on his bed and relaxed.

[Emzee]

IC: Darien - Po-Wahi -

IC: "Oh um, I'm Darien," the Toa of Plantlife said, smiling at Wokiya. "It's a pleasure to met you Wokiya...may I ask what a lady like yourself was doing out here alone in the harsh desert?"It was then that it had occurred to Wokiya that this 'Darien' fellow was probably not too familiar with the happenings of the Cultured Gentry, or else he would have recognized her by now. The Ga-Matoran couldn't help by sigh with relief at this. However, what was she to say now? She couldn't tell this (very kind) stranger about the trouble she's in... the people who may still be looking for her- Wokiya then noticed something poking out of the sand a few feet away from her and Darien. My satchel! Wokiya thought."Excuse me," Wokiya said, rising to her feet and making her away out of the protective shade. Fortunately, the bag wasn't too far away from the tree and before the Toa of Plantlife could even protest, Wokiya had pulled the bag from the sand. Dust still fell as she made her way back to the palm tree."I had almost forgotten about this," Wokiya said. She opened it and reached inside, and her hand quickly recoiled as she inhaled sharply. "Ouch, #### it" Wokiya exclaimed, slightly annoyed. She then immediately became sheepish for her unladylike outburst, the shading hiding the slight red tint on her face. Inside were her twin axes, as well as food and other supplies. Her metallic axe blades were on the top though, and they were scalding hot from their time in the desert."I'm sorry, you were asking what I was doing out here..." Wokiya said to Darien. In her earliest years, Wokiya had been trained to never go far without your armor and your tools... even as a Matoran. Now, it was just instinct to almost put the safety of her supplies above herself."Well..." the Matoran began. The distraction had gone as quickly as it came, "I was on a trip to Ga-Koro... I must've gotten lost. Really lost"This was partly true. Wokiya had intended to go to Ga-Koro from the Ko-Wahi drifts. She presumed that a small part of the desert naturally divided the ice region and the area around Lake Naho. While Wokiya did have a compass and was using it, it still didn't occur to her that she was almost directly north of Ga-Koro, and she insisted on heading east. "Is Po-Koro nearby?" Wokiya asked, hoping to change the subject completely, "Ga-Koro can wait -- I'd go for any type of civilization now"

[Void Emissary]

IC: Lux Saran - Po-Koro InnThe young Matoran blinked a few times, letting his eyes adjust to the sudden darkness. Slowly, Lux began to make out more shapes and images; some tables and chairs, a few scattered beings eating, drinking and chattering aimlessly, a small, earthen bar counter with a shelf of colourful glass bottles standing behind it. The Po-Matoran turned to face Hakilve for a moment, holding up one finger as if to say, "One second, I'll be right back," before walking over to the bar, absently noticing the light layer of sand that managed to reach everywhere in Po-Koro with annoying frequency.Tapping on the stone slab lightly, Lux waited for the barkeep, a haggard-looking Onu-Matoran to turn. He didn't wait for long, as the Matoran quickly faced the traveler, a worn, yet friendly grin on his face, "Ah yes, can I get you anything?""Um, two house ales, please, and maybe two helpings of cold Mahi? For the table," Lux replied.The barkeeper nodded, turning to get the requested dishes, as the Po-Matoran headed back to his Toa companion, "So, you want to grab a seat?"IC: Rynekk Simul - FowadiRynekk, no longer even remotely interested in the conversation at hand, followed Dehkaz to the upper decks, taking a moment to register the various actions around him."Any idea who they are?" he asked the gunmetal Toa, pointing towards the approaching pirate ship.-Void

[sunflower]

OOC: Post, yay! IC: Dehkaz The Toa of Magnetism stood near the edge of the deck, the railing just a few feet infront, all that was there to stop him from a rather unpleasent fall. His arms were crossed, weight resting casually on one leg as he stared out over the sea, his dark blue eyes fixed on the approching ship. "Hmm," Dehkaz replied, glancing over to the Toa of Stone next to him, "Possibly traders, although, with the recent influx in pirates there are few of those nowadays. We could ask, possibly escort them to where they're going, if they are traders." "Just do a bit to try and make the waterways safe again, eh?"IC: HakilveThe Toa of Stone waited as Lux ordered their meals and drink, his four massive arms drawing the occasional glance from the various beings in the bar. They didn't stare for too long, though, might have been his equally large swords strapped across his back. As the Po-Matoran returned, Hakilve cracked a grin."Well, that depends," he said, smiling under his bronze Kualsi, "Do you want to sit down?""Only joking," he added, before walking over to one of the empty tables in the room. Sitting down, Hakilve lowered his voice to address Lux. "Everyone seems on edge lately... Would you know why?" the Toa of Stone asked, glancing at the other members of the bar.

[Void Emissary]

IC: Lux Saran - Po-Koro InnLux joined Hakilve at the table, taking a cautious look around at the beings around them. Now, he realized that what he had thought was aimless chattering, was actually a controlled whisper, low and level, with subdued hand gestures and flaring nostrils."Yeah," Lux replied finally, "Something big is going on. And I have the feeling that it isn't good."IC: Rynekk Simul - FowadiRynekk nodded silently, casually, leaning on one arm which was positioned sturdily on the railing, his eyes tracking the movement of the approaching ship."How long do you estimate before they're in range," he asked, before quickly adding, "To head over to greet them, not to fire on them."-Void

[sunflower]

IC: HakilveThe Toa of Stone nodded in agreement. "Something big... Never seen anything effect so many people," Hakilve added, shrugging. Whatever it was, from what he'd seen so far, it wouldn't be long before they found out exactly what it was. "So," the Po-toa said, leaning back in his chair and speaking in a louder voice, "How do you like Po-Koro so far?"IC: Dehkaz"It might be just me, but I have a feeling we might want to check both ranges," the Toa of Magnetism said dryly, continuing to stare out over to the ship. "In both cases, not that much longer, perhaps a few more minutes. Hm... I suppose I should be the one to greet them..."

[Constructelf]

IC JianzhaWalking out of the hold, I looked around. The sight that greeted me was Po-Koro. Dry, arid, sandy, perfect for stone types but not for me. With Bahokasar still over my shoulder, I took a deep breath of the desert air only to spit it back out. Blech.Then I saw another ship, a monster of a vessel, sitting in the port. "Captain?" I yelled. "Check out the size of that thing!"

[Axilus Prime]

IC: Sorapak looked at the ship, then burst out laughing. "And it's probably slow as a Dermis Turtle...on land." He gave a mock bow towards the ship, then turned and kept going. "Oh! Right."Bahokosar felt his rib twist, whether it happened or not. "Aagh!" He weakly chuckled. "Easy on the carryin' missy."He quickly formed vine scarves for everyone. "You see, now that we have been branded with the brand of piracy, in order to successfully keep up our brand of branded piracy that has been branded, while drinking rum rather than brandy, we must brand over our brand with a scarf so that our branded necks with the brand can stay in one piece while we continue our brand of branded piracy whilst wearing the brand of piracy...brandingly." He merrily walked on, taking a sip of rum...."Oh. Gone. Again."

[25K Now!]

IC: [Naona]"I assume you two are talking about the new ship?" asked Naona, the Toa of Stone having left her cabin to join the others on the deck.

[Dual Cee]

IC: toa LhimataThe ground shoke, "Makuta" he thought, "He found us" He redied his sword to take down the intrudor, the wall burst open...IC: toa Mayhaka"Me Back" he said.IC: toa LhimataHe captured the being in plants only to see it was his ally...IC: toa Mayhaka"Plants hurt" he said while he quickly destroyed the plants with his warhammer."I brought company: Two other beings entered the room, a toa of ice and a toa of sonics:"Found them being attacked by rama, saved and brought them here"The toa of plants introduced the two to the orginasation, he showed them there rooms and ordered the toa of stone to use his power to expand the cave, then he ordered the toa of sonics to follow him to the room of the wounded vortixx and he asked if he could heal him with his mask. The toa answered" Of course but it will take time" the toa of the green left the room and the other began the healing process

[Hanako Herupa]

IC: (Hari)Hari overheard what was going on and walked over."I could talk to them, I'm good with people, not saying any of you aren't good with people. Just people and what they're thinking, kinda have a knack for it." The Corporal seemed as eager as ever, it seemed she had planned on being the negotiator for the group, maybe even in the Guard overall. This would give her a chance to try out all those things she learned in the books, then again it wasn't something as dangerous as a hostage situation, they were just trying to find out who the people were on this new ship sailing into Po-Koro's marina.

[sunflower]

IC: DehkazThe Toa of Magnetism nodded in responce to Naona's question as the Toa of Stone came above deck. The Po-Toa was closely followed by Hari, who had suggested that she be the one to talk to them. That was entirely fine with Dehkaz, as the Toa of Magnetism was a bit on the "anti-social" part of things."Fine with me," the gunmetal-armored Toa said, shrugging.

[Krayzikk]

IC: Krayn and Brukin"Captain Dehkaz, Naona." Krayn said abruptly, his eye fixed on the ship that had docked next to them. Quite suddenly, the De-Toa was on alert, his former drunken state mostly gone. He used his powers to ensure that the pirates wouldn't be able to hear him. "Those sailors are pirates.""They just admitted to it themselves." As annoying as it could be, it was quite useful being a De-Toa.

[Hanako Herupa]

IC: (Hari)"Shouldn't we at least try to do this peacefully. Did they recently rob anyone or commit any crimes, were they boasting?" Hari asked. "I'm just saying Po-Koro doesn't need another massive fight on her hands. We put them in jail for a few days or they pay a fine, and hopefully they learn their lesson. Once again I still think I should talk to them, no need to be hostile unnecessarily."

[sunflower]

IC: DehkazThe Toa of Magnetism nodded in agreement. Although they did have the advantage of surprise and firepower, there was no need to go blasting ships out of the water. Still... "None the less, we should be prepared," Dehkaz said, before turning to Brukin, "Load the cannons, but don't deloy them yet. We don't want out friends over there to get edgy."With that said, Dehkaz tuned to Hari, and said, "With respect, ma'am, I think it'd be best if someone went with you to talk to them."

[Constructelf]

IC JianzhaAs the ship pulled closer to port, I noticed there were beings on it. Putting on a cloak to further hide my brand, I said to Soraprak "there are beings on that boat who have been watching us for awhile. Should we address them or ignore them?"
