The part where you say [I then pick you up again and throw you against one of my Kikanalo. It impales you further with it's horn. "Being a puppet. I have been other's puppets for too long." I take out a gun and fire off into your legs. I try to scream, but you have no breath left. I take you off of the Kikanalo and put you behind it. It kicks you and breaks your spine.] I suppose you mean "you", but that's beside the point. I have to admit, I enjoyed reading that post, but it looks like you don't know me well. I'm a mutated, half-mechanical member of Takadox's species. We have a knack for surviving, like cockroaches, through even the toughest situations. Plus we have a hypnotic gaze. THIS is what really happened. I feel the protodermis-imbued Kikanalo horn slide slowly first through my back, then through my chest and finally clean out of the other end. It passes through so easily because I have rearranged some of my organs to let it through. It tickles, but I make a show of gasping for air. I tap into the energy of an object I had absorbed long ago, a Kanohi Iden that my servant, Takadox, had found discarded near the shoreline when he was freed by the Order of Mata Nui. I had tampered with it and had changed it so I could literally possess other beings. Unfortunately, it had become weaker, so this was probably the last time I'll be able to use it. So, as the Kikanalo lifted its head, I use that power to transfer my soul into its frame. Kikanalo aren't the smartest Rahi, so it is easy to take control. In its mind, I see its dreams of the perfect pasture and the end of Rider's torments. I am now fully in control, and am vaguely aware of Rider fulfilling his sadistic desires on my lifeless body. The blue, yellow, silver and black stands out against the sands. I'd smile if I could. He thinks he's so good, huh? He finishes by slamming what was once my head down, and starts to walk towards me. I slightly hypnotize him to make him less perceptible to his steed's behavior. He clambers on my back, and I hear him snigger as he presses a button. We- I- keep trudging along until I we are at his base. It's time. I use my absorbed Huna powers to suddenly become invisible. Rider is taken aback, nearly falling to the dust. I call the other members of the herd in, telling them that Rider was planning on killing them today. I buck him off as they stampede in on him, crushing his limbs and sword. I emerge from the Kikanalo, the beast unsure of the previous events. I wait a little before summoning the remains of my former body. They fall from the sky with a resounding thunk and I slip in. They appear as a vaguely mantis-like skeleton, charred and scarred with a cruel hole in the chest. It'll take some work to get myself back to my former glory, but wait- I almost forgot- I place my hands on the Mask of Life, and it replenishes my body instantly. I look over at the Kikanalo, who are now happily playing with dismembered pieces of Rider's corpse. Life is good. My mask and Kikanalo farm.
