IC: Dahkapa (Ko-koro streets) Dahkapa felt pity towards the matoran as she explained what had happened. She seemed to be afraid and desperate. Dahkapa looked at the wound again, and came up with an idea to stop the bleeding. With the remnants of his strength he formed a block of ice around the wound. "There, that will stop the bleeding for a while. Calm down, everything is fine. Can I carry you to the hospital? I doubt that you can walk with a wound like that," Dahkapa felt like he could fall asleep right there, but a short prayer to Mata Nui gave him strength. He had a destiny to fulfill.

IC: Dahkapa (Ko-koro streets) After a small amount of searching, Dahkapa found the person in need of help close to the city walls. It was a female Ta-matoran. As he saw her, she said "Oh, thank goodness" and ordered him to hurry. It seemed like she was injured in the leg. Dahkapa was no doctor, but he could take her to the hospital. He was in no condition to fight yet, because his stomach still hurt a little from the Skakdi's attack, and he felt tired. He walked to the matoran and kneeled to take a closer look at her wound. "Who cut you in the leg?" he asked. Her protodermic skin was cut, and the wound appeared to be quite deep. Only swords and knives could cause this type of damage, he figured.

OoC: Gullible good guy reporting for duty IC: Dahkapa "... No. All I know is that something blew up near it and bow the Guard is rushing to it", the Fe-matoran said. Dahkapa knew that already, but he didn't say anything at first. Then, he asked "Have you seen what's the situation at the main gate?" But before he could answer, a cry for help echoed through the icy streets. "Help! I'm hurt, please help me!" Dahkapa felt that it was his duty to go. Maybe some civilian was attacked by that Skakdi woman. "Excuse me, I must go. Someone needs my help. May Mata Nui protect you" he said to the matoran before leaving. He was still quite tired, but he could still help out a matoran in danger.

IC: Danaku Ran He watched silently as the bizarre stranger next door was taken away by some short prison guard. He turned back to Silo and said "Few days? Well, I suppose we have no other option than to wait. Unless a miracle happens.."

"Creeping In My Soul" from the Barraki promo (which is definitely my favourite bionicle commercial) used to be my favourite when I was younger, but recently I listened to "Gravity Hurts" and now it is my favourite, "Closer to the Truth" is also quite good.

IC: Danaku Ran This 'Phanty' sure is a strange person, he thought. "I am sorry to interrupt you two, but do you know when the tournament will start?" OoC: What is Damek doing right now?

IC. Dahkapa (Ko-koro streets) Captain Pilvi started to order her men to disarm the Skakdi, but she was once again interrupted by Dahkapa. "She needs the sword to walk. Just leave her alone." Pilvi looked at him with disgust and harshly said "Sometimes the honour some of you Toa are so proud of sickens me." She turned back to her men, and ordered them to form up and march onwards. After they left, Dahkapa turned to look at the Fe-matoran. "Sorry, I had to deal with this captain and the Skakdi first. What about the Sanctum? Do you know who is attacking it?"

IC: Dahkapa (Ko-koro streets) Before Captain Pilvi could respond to the Skakdi, Dahkapa said calmly "Let her go." The Sanctum Guard all looked at him like he was crazy."She is too wounded and tired to threaten anybody. She can go." I hope I'm doing the right thing, Dahkapa thought. Pilvi considered his words for a while before speaking loudly: "Are you insane? We can't let a Skakdi roam free in our city-" Dahkapa raised his hand, and she stopped. She is not going to like this. Dahkapa turned to look at the Skakdi woman and said calmly "Drop your weapons and get out of here before you get killed. Go."

IC: Danaku Ran "Oh, what, did he escape or something?" Danaku was slightly disappointed that they had one less prisoner that could help them escape. Although he had thought that his plan was suicidal, Danaku was sure he would've taken the risk. Oh well.

Well, it's good that I decided to make my Vortixx get hired as a mercenary by the Legacy and move him from Le-Wahi to Ko-Wahi. Bashing skulls is much more fun than pest control or extinguishing forest fires Also, 30 widgets on Zaktan.

IC: Danaku Ran "Well, I already explained the plan. Has the tournament started yet? And what did you discuss about with that strange prisoner next door?" His head was hurting a bit, and he was still rather drowsy. OoC: If the tournament won't happen, we can wait for the "Piraka Rescue Team" that seems to be arriving at Onu-koro sooner or later

IC: The Deceiver (Ostia) A Saint of Mata Nui? Interesting. She wasn't entirely certain if the dead Toa was speaking the truth, but she doubted it. "A Saint of Mata Nui? Fascinating. I would love to hear more about him or her, but I must leave now. Excuse me for my paranoia, I think I'm getting too eager to bash evil Makuta worshippers, hehe. Safe travels, then." She walked away from the cart, and waited before it started to move. She then walked behind a corner, and used her powers to turn the blue crystal covering her body into fine dust. After that she activated her Mask of Invisibility, and started to follow the cart and its driver. She would find out the truth about him and his religious friends. OoC: The Deceiver to Ko-Wahi, I assume.

OoC: Changed my mind, ignore this

IC: Danaku Ran (Onu-koro prison) A sudden surge of pain awoke him from his dreamless sleep, and quickly rose from his bed. He noticed pieces of a stone on the ground near his bed that hadn't been there before. Someone had thrown a stone at him, he figured. "Who threw that?" he mumbled with a rashy, tired voice. He noticed Silo looking at him from behind the bars. "Was it you? What do you want?" he asked before realizing that the tournament might have started while he was asleep. Silo spoke before he said anything however.

IC: Dahkapa (Ko-koro streets) For a moment, Dahkapa thought about joining Jaatava at the main gate, but he was too tired to fight yet. If he would escort the Skakdi out of town, he could recuperate his strength. "I doubt I could defeat any besiegers when I'm this tired, so.." he started to say before another company of Sanctum Guard appeared from behind the corner. They were in a hurry, it seemed. Dahkapa caught their attention by shouting "Hey! Could you help me out with this Skakdi? She attacked Jaatava's company!". The entire regiment halted, and an officer walked closer to both of them. She made sure to stay a fair distance away from the Skakdi. "Greetings, Toa. I am Captain Pilvi". She looked at the Skakdi, who was too tired to fight an entire company of warriors, and said "So, Skakdi scum, drop your weapon if you don't want a dozen spears in your back. Say, do you have any friends who are willing to ransom you should we imprison you?". A soldier approached them with large handcuffs. Pilvi then pointed at the Fe-matoran and asked "And who are you?" Dahkapa simply stood silent, waiting for both of them to respond.

IC: Dahkapa (Ko-koro streets) He stepped forwards, and said "I can not kill you, true, but I can make sure that you leave the city without touching a single matoran. Go." He turned to look at the Fe-matoran. "I recommend that you find a way out of the city, because we are under attack. It is dangerous here, especially if the enemy breaks through the gate" he turned back towards the Skakdi and started to follow her from a distance.

IC: Dahkapa (Ko-koro streets) He was confused at first when the matoran pointed his sword at him, before realizing that the matoran was just caught in the middle of the storm. He still wondered why exactly he had decided to join the fight. "She attacked a company of the Sanctum Guard, and is a threat to the inhabitants. It is my duty to fight against her and protect the matoran." he said. Dahkapa then turned to look at the Skakdi. "A true Toa stays true to his words. If you do not surrender, I have no other option but to fight you"

IC: Dahkapa (Ko-koro streets) Dahkapa stopped suddenly when the Skakdi shot her weapon, and hit the shield the matoran was holding. The vines wrapped around his buckler, but he could easily free himself from the vines. He turned to look at the Skakdi, who in turn stared at him like he was a disgusting Rahi. "Surrender, and this will be over much quicker, without anyone getting hurt more." he said sternly, ready to fight should she turn down his offer. "I promise to spare your life, if you drop your sword."

IC: The Deceiver (Ostia) "Oh, very well.. but may I ask out of curiosity, who or what do you worship?" she asked with a somewhat doubtful voice. Even if he wouldn't tell her what she hoped to hear, she still had a plan.

Um, does anyone want to hire a personal Vortixx bodyguard? He is kinda sitting like a duck in Le-koro at the moment, and I'm not sure what to do with him.. any ideas?

IC: Dahkapa (Ko-koro streets) The matoran started to run towards the Skakdi, making zig-zagging moves in order to avoid getting hit by the zamor spheres. For a moment, he thought about reloading his crossbow again, but figured that by the time he would have reloaded the matoran would be too close to the Skakdi, and he would risk hitting the Fe-matoran. Instead, he picked up his weapons from the ground. I'm too tired to fight, but I have no other option, he thought before starting to move closer to the Skakdi, ready to use his Kanohi Hau if she would shoot at him. OoC: Just to be clear, he is too tired to use his elemental powers, but he can still use the Kanohi.

OoC: Oh, I thought he was. It's going to be more difficult for her to find out more info about the Legacy now :/ IC: The Deceiver (Ostia) "It's just, let's say, a little bit suspicious that you are getting 'supplies' this late at night. I suppose you can tell me who these friends are if there's nothing shady about them?" she asked. Daretaki doubted that the souless thrall would reveal anything about his master(s), but she tried anyways. Sadly she didn't have the option of interrogating him, like she had done with the foolish matoran before. She had an idea, however..

IC: Dahkapa He reloaded quicker than he thought he could, and aimed at the Skakdi's leg. The bolt flew and hit her, and she fell on top of her Zamor launcher. She picked up the weapon and aimed at the matoran, who was standing near. Seems like the matoran had run out of courage, he thought, before he shouted "Watch out!"

IC: Dahkapa The pain and fatique were too much for him to handle. He couldn't fight against the Skakdi in close combat anymore, but when he saw her running towards her zamor launcher, he dropped his weapons on the ground and drew his crossbow from his back, and loaded it. He had to be quick, but he still hoped that the warrior - who apparently was a very brave matoran - could distract the Skakdi for a moment..

OoC: Sure IC: Dahkapa The Skakdi struck him below his stomach, and it hurt. A lot. However, because the blade was made of stone, it didn't even dent his protosteel skin. Had it been made of something sharper, he would be dealing with a nasty, bleeding cut. Luckily it had hit the more heavily armoured part of his torso, but it made His muscles were badly bruised, and the pain coming from them made him nauseous, but out of fear from being killed he got strength to push the blade aside with his shield and roll over sideways, away from the Skakdi. As he was getting back up on his feet, cursing the immense pain coming from his bruised stomach, he only then noticed that someone was fighting the Skakdi. The pain had made him ignore the outside world for a moment. Had the warrior said something? Dahkapa wasn't certain.. OoC:Edit: apparently the Granite Sword is made out of protosteel.
