CasualtiesAuthor: Toa JalokimProtagonist: NidhikiWord Count: 1,168
-
Nidhiki stood at the wall of the Dark Hunter fortress. Every now and then he thought about the times he had been in Metru Nui and the many battles he had fought in the Toa-Dark Hunter War. During times of war, it was normal for someone to write down the details for each battle, so future historians can have a record. When Nidhiki was bored, he would read the words he wrote all those years ago and ponder what he could have done to prevent himself from becoming a Dark Hunter and looking like the monster he is now.

Toa-Dark Hunter war, day 42
I was in the room with the rest of the Toa Mangai and Dume where we usually strategize, when someone knocked on the chamber door. I was wondering who was rude enough to cut me off in mid-sentence until I saw she was one of our Toa scouts. She was a Toa of Lightning and wore a white Kanohi Akaku. She stepped forward. She explained that she had overheard a couple of Dark Hunters talking about a bomb. She also stated that they planned to use that bomb to destroy a third of the Toa defending the city.
And then... All Lhikan said was that we would deal with it after we got medical supplies for our injured Toa! So I decided to make my thoughts on the matter clear.
"You can't be serious! We need to deal with this as soon as possible! This is war! The Dark Hunters wouldn't waste time to destroy us all!" I said.
"Even if we did something about this bomb, what would we do? Throw elemental bursts and hope they hit something? If we go in with just what we have, what would we accomplish?" Lhikan replied.
"That's a much better plan than waiting!"
"If I can get a word in, we could just send in a team small enough to slip by their defenses and steal the bomb for examination," the scout interjected.
I had to say, I was quite surprised I hadn’t thought about that.
She continued, "I volunteer myself to go, since I am the only one who knows where the bomb is located.
"Lhikan considered this for a moment.
"We’ll send a team in about an hour. And since you are so eager for action, Nidhiki, you shall accompany this Toa and two others who are willing to go on this mission. Is that clear?"
"Yes... Brother" I replied bitterly.
We then headed out to search for Toa who would be willing to accompany us.
* * *
There were two Toa willing to accompany us, one a Toa of Fire with a gold hue and a red Hau, the other a Toa of "the Green" wearing a blue Faxon. The three Toa with me seemed to know each other quite well. They were remembering their adventures before the war. They seemed to have a lot of good memories, but where I come from, you can never be completely safe, which was why I had learned to use the shadows to my advantage, unlike these three.
Eventually we reached Ga-Metru, where the Toa of Lightning said the bomb was located. She used her Kanohi Akaku to scan for the bomb, but she couldn’t find it. She suggested that the Dark Hunters had moved it to keep it safe.
"So how do you suppose we find one bomb in this entire section of the Metru?" the Toa of Fire asked.
"We should split into two teams so we can cover more ground. You, Toa of Plant Life, you're with me. Let's go," I replied.
The team went in opposite directions, the Toa of Plants and I taking the left path.
Eventually we found a Dark Hunter outpost, with the Dark Hunter named Primal standing guard. He didn't see us yet, so I created a vacuum around him, and due to the lack of air, he fell unconscious.
I and the Toa of the green went inside the outpost, only to find that there was nothing there.
Then, we saw a ball of flame erupt in the air just about a kio away.
"What is that Toa thinking!? He just gave away his position to the whole city!" I exclaimed.
"He is still a novice, so he has a lot to learn. But don't worry; we know where he is, so I suggest we make haste."
When we arrived at the site of the flare, we found our two Toa allies battling four Dark Hunters at the time.
"I guess we'd better help," I said to my partner.
A green dark hunter of the Skakdi race seemed to notice us. He seemed to be the one in charge of the group. "Hakann! Reidak! Teach these two to not interfere with things that don't concern them!" he ordered.
The one called Reidak charged at me. I hurled a cyclone at him, which seemed to make him even madder. As soon as the cyclone subsided, he charged at me yet again.
“You’re a tricky one, aren't you?” I said.
He let out a growl of frustration and swung, with the blunt end of his Buzz saw smacking me right in the mask.
"OWW! That's it, no more playing easy!"
I swung at him, with my scythe hooking onto his Buzz saw. With all my might, I tore it free from his grip.
As soon as he was defenseless, I punched him with enough force to knock-out a Kane-Ra bull.
"Toa, one, Dark Hunter, zero."
I went to go help out the novice Toa of Fire, who seemed to be having a hard time beating the one I recognized as Thok.
As soon as the fire-spitter noticed I was coming he shouted that he could hold them off while the Toa of Lightning would destroy the bomb.
"Sure thing fire-spitter,”
I pointed to the dark hunter in charge.
“But I'll handle him!"
* * *
After a furious battle, Zaktan shouted to his squad, "The bomb is lost! We shall live to fight another day!"
The one called Hakann pointed his lava launcher at the Toa of plants.
"Of course, but it would be rude to leave without a parting gift!"
With that said, he shot a lava sphere right at the Toa of "the Green". It struck him square in the chest, slowly burning away at his organs. It must have been an agonizing death.
"NOOOOOO!" the fire-spitter shouted, hurling balls of flame at the retreating dark hunters, but it was already too late.
"It's all my fault! I should've helped him out! I should've done something!"
I went to the Toa of fire and said, "It’s not your fault. Things like this are going to happen during a war, kid. You need to learn to get used to it."
And with that, we returned to the Coliseum, where I informed Lhikan of the death of the Toa of plants.
"And you are sure you couldn't do anything to prevent this?"
"If I could, I would have." I replied.
After that was dealt with, we put the bomb in storage, where it was decided it would remain. But I kept on thinking that I should have convinced Lhikan to use the bomb against the Dark Hunters. Bah, he probably would have said “No, we cannot endanger the Matoran!”. Anyway, why would Lhikan care so much about ONE life out of one hundred? Is he surprised that someone was killed in a war? It wouldn’t make sense if he was. In my opinion, you should only care about a death in a war if you lost someone important. This Toa of Plant Life, however, was not important. He was just a soldier, we have dozens of Toa who could take his place!
After I thought about this, Lhikan asked me to check in on the guards and inform them of the loss. After I did that, I went to our usual room where we would talk about strategies.

-
cool, I should be able to have it ready by wednesday.Your mind will expierience pure awesomeness!
-
hey, just wondering, when is the deadline again?
-
Alright! My fav toa is still alive!How do I use spoiler tags again?
-
I was planning to enter. In fact, I've already started.
-
Thats my boi!I'm voting for Ko-Koro all the way. The snow drifts, the ice houses. Just a quick question, will Ko-Koro include the path that leads down to the main crossroads between Onu-Koro, Po-Koro, and Ga-Koro? Also, Le-Koro would be my second choice, I really want them all though -
you might be able to if you are just writing about the original hydraxon.Is Hydraxon considered dead even though Dekar/Hydraxon exists? -
Now that, was an awesome story! I am yet to write my entrie. If this entrie becomes canon, it will fit perfectly with this series I'm making.
-
Watch the update vid on #######, and you will understand
-
For the map, I vote for ko koro- mikolajdudek on #######
-
I've got some competition!
-
awesome! can't wait. can you say when the movie should be out?
-
Yes, you said it was almost finished, can you give us an estimate of how long?
-
You see, that's why we have a story overview on bioniclestory.com, so newcomers can be introduced to what's been going on.
-
-
when we have a winning entry, maybe we could send greg the entry via erebus? therefore, if he approves it, we get a new addition to the canon?
-
ok, but I noticed the thing with the names, does that mean if it is approved, there will be a 100% chance that the name wont be approved? or is there a 1% chance it will be approved?From the first post:
In a nutshell, you are definitely allowed create new characters and have Lesovikk meet them as long as the focus of the story remains on Lesovikk, just as you asked.- You are allowed to introduce new characters in your story, but they should be kept to a minimum; remember that this contest is about Lesovikk.
- You are allowed to name characters. However, bear in mind that if Mr. Farshtey returns and your story is approved as canon, names will not be included in the approval.
- You may attribute new characters to the Order of Mata Nui. However, they must be utilized in your story in such a fashion that they do not in any way allow Lesovikk to know of the Order's existence.
-
there are other reasons that velika was the perfect candidate (in my opinion) and that was because he had the personality of a great being, Greg never wrote about what he was thinking (we only heard him through dialogues)Oh and he was an inventor
-
this opens alot of opportunity for me. can we introduce self mocs, but still focus on lesovikk, such as lesovikk meeting someones moc for a few seconds?
-
So, here's what we know about Velika:
We also know new things about the Red Star, but no clear confirmation that Velika is worrying about that. We have merely the correlation between these two threads within the storytelling itself of The Powers That Be. So for now let's ignore that -- and there's some evidence, seen below, that he is not thinking about the RS:The Great Being is Velika. [He] was already named Velika before inhabiting the Matoran body.Velika is indeed the killer of Tren Krom and Karzahni. He was doing some housecleaning... eliminating wild cards, beings who are acting way outside of the expected parameters of the GB's plans.
The first major question is, whose plan? Just Velika's plan? Or is this a plan all the GBs planned originally?I think Greg's recent reveals all support the idea that Velika did not enter the MU intending some other plan than the GBs. He did it without their knowledge, but he kept his original name, so he couldn't have been too worried they might find out. However, he could have formed his own plan later, and TPTB gives evidence of this:So far, he had killed Tren Krom and Karzahni… one a madman, the other a gelatinous mass of hot air. Neither proved to be much of a challenge. The Toa were keeping the whole thing quiet, as they often did. Although the two heroes investigating the murders, Kopaka and Pohatu, had recently vanished, he was not overly concerned. They would turn up eventually. The plan required it.
However, the thins that became clear to him could have simply been the unexpected ability for beings to act beyond original expected parameters; freewill, and he could still be trying to get back to the entire GBs' goals.But then, there's this line:As time passed and things had become clear to him, he had known this time would come.
The 'loyal' idea could still be salvaged here though, if he just means "only he on SM" or the like. But he seems too happy with killing for that, as if he is a serial killer. (Which, though, might not fit Velika's original character enough. I always got the impression he was genuinely a good guy. ) Also, the whole "GB's" versus "GBs'" wording thing in Greg's reveal.But I think we can get strong evidence to answer this here:in which only he knew the rules.
Notice he's perfectly willing to murder a fellow Great Being in order to pursue his own purposes! It's not just the artificial life.This is strong evidence that the "things that became clear" include rebelling from the other GBs' plans. The expected parameters could still be the whole group's original plans, but that he wanted to use the things within those plans for his own goals.That also makes me wonder if he has been on a bad track from the start, and went into hiding in the MU partially to hide from the GBs, but just haven't committed a major offense and didn't think they'd be likely to look for him there. But something snapped along the way and now he'll murder beings he knows are fully sapient, and even his own kind.Here, in the wooded region of Spherus Magna, the Great Beings had plied their trade many years agone. Now one remained inside that fortress, quite mad, but still brilliant and dangerous nonetheless.For the watcher’s purposes, he hardly mattered. No, what was important about that building was who else was inside it now.
Probably most of them. But he may not have been in there to preserve peace so much as to watch for beings he could use for an evil purpose, and to hide. A purpose he thinks of as good, however, but Orde thinks is evil.So most of the Toa and Matoran are safe from him? Seems like he is in the MU to preserve the peace rather than to wreak havoc.man we've got alot of new info now eh? but wait, since we know now that the dead go to the red star, dosen't that mean that makuta is there? and lhikan, and matoro?
-
Pretty sure he doesn't even have a mouth. Does he? Well, Matoran can't eat....
well, then he'll absorb someones energy through his hands. simultaneously saying NOM NOM NOM.
-
He said they were going to be tasty... Maybe he's absorbing the power of all the powerful beings to boost his own power, and in the process, it kills them. That would explain a lot.
I think that is a good point. I wonder if we are gonna get anymore updates. I sure hope so!
Unless of course he literally plans to eat them.
ya, then it'll be pretty weird seeing velika go NOM NOM NOM.
