  1. Very unique take on revamping the Stars sets. Now they are all the size of the standard 2009 Glatorian sets from the old days, which is greatly appreciated. The design for Tahu is very unique and looks very nice. I almost wish we could have seen that over the small little Stars set. You've made him true to the original while armoring him up and making him look taller. My only complaint would be the feet looking too small, but then again there aren't really many other feet in Mata red... aside from the Toa Mata feet. Or HF 2.0 feet, but of course nothing bad if you don't have those. That's probably my only complaint, although I know you tried to stay true to the original. Nektann: This is probably one of the more unique versions of Nektann I've ever seen. I like the custom design of the legs, making him taller than the standard Skakdi, which is how he was described as being in Destiny War. The "chicken leg" look is a bit unexpected, yet I like it. I also like the unique feet design as well. And it's amazing how you managed to get the Vezok spine and Nektann head to look like one piece... or close to one piece, anyway. It all works together so well. The torso design is also pretty nicely done as well. My only complaint here would be the weapons. The crescent scythes look too small for him. The weapon was fine for his small derpy Stars form, but here it looks a bit out of scale for him. I don't know, that's just how I feel looking at him. The Piraka had larger weapons that that length-wise, so maybe it's just me and my feelings towards how much I liked the Piraka sets. Takanuva is my least favorite of the stars... well, I'll get to that in a little bit. So unfortunately a lot of my opinion is kind of based off how much I didn't like how the original turned out and how not white and gold he was. So in staying true to the original, it's because I don't like the original I might not like him a whole lot. I do like how you've made his staves and the torso, even if it's similar to Tahu. For some reason though he doesn't look as well-armored as Tahu, but that could be me. I do like this Toa torso design and I do wish we could have seen something more like this over the derpy little stars sets. Rahkshi is probably one of my favorites from this bunch. I like how well you've replicated the original 2003 Rahkshi build while using some of the more newer pieces. He looks great and again, I so wish we could have seen something like this in 2010. I like even more how you managed to put a Kraata in him, fully making him like an original Rahkshi. A very great job with the torso design. I wished they could have made yellow Rahkshi feet to go along with him. Then again, I liked those pieces and wish we had more of them overall. Gresh... what can I say? He is probably my least favorite of the actual stars set, seeing as the 2009 one was so much better and looked cooler, so unfortunately that might affect my opinion a little bit. A good job of making a nice torso design. I feel your pain with using rubber bands, since a MOC I made once used a rubber band for an armor piece. Sometimes it helps, but I guess it would be "cheating" a little bit. Unfortunately the actual stars set isn't too memorable to me, so I can't really give a whole-hearted review. He's definitely an improvement over the stars set, that I will say. Skrall is definitely an improvement over the stars set. He looks fearsome and like an actual threat. Like a more elite, muscular version of the original Skrall set from 2009 with improved weapons. You have done this set great justice in making him go from an Atakus clone (well, modified clone) to something that looks awesome. One thing I didn't like about the stars set was his lack of a shield, and you've given him a good one here. His sword also looks more in proportion with the set as well, versus the actual version that had this small sword and then these giant blades on the shoulders that clunked into each other due to poor attachment and spacing. Overall, you have done the stars good justice in revamping them into something much better and awesome. If only the stars were more like this and less like chibi versions of characters.
  2. Sounds to be an interesting idea. In the time I've been on here, I've never really seen anyone do something like this. At least, not with so much vigorous detail and research. I'm kind of glad you didn't go with the "Worst Comedy of the Year" category, seeing as that might be self-esteem crushing for the person who wins. And I got a feeling of if someone remembers my name they might nominate me for that category with one of my lackluster writings. Depending on how many categories you wish to set, you can possibly even add more to the list. Like for example say "Best Comedic Moment" in a story, or even "Best/Favorite/Memorable Quote," things like that. But again, it all depends on how many categories you wish to set. So I can agree if you don't want to have so many that you don't know what to do with them, but of course it could also be a good idea for a bit of variety to shake things up a little and keep it interesting. Plus provide insight into the stories, such as with a "Best Moment" category, showcase the nominees and winner with how and why they got nominated. A sort of way to show a reader who might look and think "This is pretty funny, I think I want to check this out." That's just my thoughts, and I know my thoughts are crazy and insane. Sorry to hear about the lack of reviewers. Sorry I can't help in any kind of way. I don't think I might make a good comedy reviewer for the sheer fact there are times I can't sit down and spend time reading and come up with a well-thought out review full of constructive criticism, hints, tips, and of the sort. I think I'll stick to the music and action figure reviews I do.
  3. Here is Chapter 23. Before anyone complains, yes I did shorten the dungeon in terms of chapter length, but mainly because that dungeon takes a long time. It took me over 2 hours personally to get through it, and like with the Temple of Time, I just did not want to spend so long on a dungeon I didn't even like. The only thing I did like was the boss battle. That in itself made the dungeon feel worth it. If I could, I'd go through it again just for that battle because I like it so much, but I won't because I'd have to go through the dungeon again and I don't want to. *So Lewa went off to go into the sky temple and he made his way through it. Though it was stress-inducing, mind numbing, and overall just confusing, Lewa was able to get through most of it… then he had to fight some flying lizard guy with a shield… that had a clawshot target.*Lewa: He might as well give up to me right now.*Lewa beat him with the clawshot with ease and his reward was… another clawshot.*Lewa: What the…? I already have one of these.*Sure enough, Lewa eventually learned having two clawshots was actually more helpful than it sounded. It made getting through the temple much easier… sort of. There was still a lot of problems but nothing he couldn't totally handle. So about 5 hours later, Lewa made it to fight the menacing monster that terrorized the city in the sky. None other than Twilit Dragon Argorok. When Lewa first got to the chamber, it was relatively sunny outside. As he made his way up via his double clawshots and the floating peahats, he found the weather started to get worse. It was Pathetic Fallacy at its best in this case.*Lewa: Can this get any worse?*In the irony of his words, Argorok flew in, letting out a roar, and then soaring up higher. Lewa, looking at the 4 spires around him, uses his double claw shots to ascend and then clawshot to Argorok's hooktail. Lewa added some weight with his iron boots, causing the dragon to plummet and lose some of his armor. Argorok shook it off and tried again, getting higher, but as did Lewa and he did the same thing once more. After Argorok 90% of his armor, he simply shook off the rest of it and let out a powerful roar, soaring above the spires and spewing fire as he did so. As he did so, Pathetic Fallacy kicked in again with a terrible storm with wind and rain, causing a few peahats to grow out of the ground and fly into the air.**Lewa clawshotted his way above the spires and then to the peahats, going to and fro between then and getting behind Argorok, just to notice a red jewel on his back. Once behind Argorok, Lewa latched onto him and struck at the jewel repeatedly until the dragon shook him off. Lewa went after him again, doing the same thing to strike at the jewel once more. After the dragon shook him off again, Argorok grew wise to his strategy and as Lewa tried again, Argorok started to breathe fire in his direction to block him off. Lewa quickly changed direction, latched onto the jewel, and destroyed that evil dragon, earning the final mirror shard. The Mirror of Twilight was now complete.*Midna: Well, well, well, looks like you took down that dragon, Lewa. Now give me the mirror shard, you know the rules by now.Lewa: All right.Midna: You know, only the true leader of the Twili can truly destroy this thing. Zant only shattered it into 4 pieces. If that's not proof of his false kingship, I don't know what is.Lewa: Well, now we can go and face him and steal-back the Fused Shadows. I can only wonder what he's doing while we're out here. He must be plotting… doing evil things…*Somewhere in the Zone Where Normal Things Don't Happen Very Often…**Zant is in his quarters… playing with his actual action figure series for Twilight Delinquent. He's got the Lewa figure, the Nokama figure, the Midna figure in her true form with her face hidden in her cloak, and of course the Zant figure with special helmet.*Zant: (as himself) At last, Midna, I have you in my clutches. And now you will be forced to love me and marry me and live happily ever after! (as Midna) No, Zant, I hate you! Get away from me, I'll never love you! (as himself) No! You're mine now! (as Lewa) I won't let you love-marry her, Lord Helmet! (as himself) Toa Lewa! I knew you would get here! Well, no matter, because you're not as cool as me! *beats up Lewa action figure* (as Lewa) No! I lost to your awesomeness! (as himself) Yes, and I did it all in a few seconds while barely moving! (as Nokama) Oh, no, you killed my boyfriend! (as himself) Oh, yeah? Well, now I'll kill you, too! *he beats up the Nokama figure the same way, then placing her next to the Lewa figure.* (as Nokama) Oh, no, you're so strong and handsome, there was no way I could ever keep up with you!(as himself) And don't you forget it. Now, Midna, at last we are alone.(as Midna) No, I hate you, I hate you, I hate you! And yet… I find you strangely attractive.(as himself) Of course you do. I have money and power, and you're a sucker for both and you know it! Now kiss me!(as Midna) No, leave me alone, you monster!(as himself) No, kiss me now! You can't deny that you love me!(as Midna) Oh, Zant… your voice is so sexy, and your helmet is so big…*Just then a Shadow Beast barges into Zant's quarters.*Shadow Beast: Lord Helmet!*Zant, scared out of his wits, quickly grabs his figures and hides them underneath his arms*Zant: WHAT?!Shadow Beast: They've gotten all the mirror shards.Zant: Knock on my door next time, or I'll personally put you in the washing machine and hang you out to dry!Shadow Beast: Yes, sir.Zant: Did you see anything?Shadow Beast: No, I didn't see you playing with your dolls.Zant: Good!*The Shadow Beast leaves and closes the door behind him.*Zant: Oh, no, that means they'll be arriving here shortly… I'll be doomed! What will I do?! I'm not so much worried about that pathetic hero, it's more Midna I'm worried about! Her wrath is unmatched, and after I tried to kill her to convince her to join me, I'm sure she won't be happy to see me! I mean, trying to kill her should have made her join me! Why didn't it?!Female voice: You worry too much, Lord Helmet…Zant: Ah?! Oh, fair maiden, I need your guidance! Please, oh, spirit guide, share with me your wisdom!Female voice: Stay calm and stay ready, for while this hero is indeed related to the "legendary" hero of time, he will be of no threat if he knows what he is truly up against. *evil giggle*Zant: Yes, yes, you're right!Female voice: Show him the might of the powers bestowed upon you by your deity… tell him exactly what he is up against. Zant: Oh, yes, fair princess! I shall do that! (womanly voice) Zant, before you go play, I do encourage you to finish your dinner. (regular voice) Aw, mom, do you have to embarrass me in front of the princess like that? Okay, I'll eat dinner first. Then I really need to plan the destruction of a hero.Female voice: I suggest you keep me with you at all times while you confront this fool. He might be stupid, but he is powerful. I know his ancestor all too well…Zant: Yes, Oh, maiden fair… *He reaches over to a shelf cloaked in darkness, taking something from it and putting it in a waist coat pocket. Then he makes his way to eat dinner.**Back with Lewa, he got out of the temple and ready to get to the Mirror Chamber. He wasn't sure how to get back down, though. At least, until he noticed there was another cannon like the one he found before.*Lewa: Is it a good idea to shoot myself down from a cannon? I'll give it a try.*Lewa clawshots into the cannon like before, and the cannon shoots him back down.*Lewa: Bad day, bad day, bad day, bad day…!*Lewa ends up back in Lake Hylia, thankfully landing in the water.*Midna: All right, now it's time for you to make for the Mirror Chamber and get this mirror back together. We've wasted enough time dawdling, so let's get to it.Lewa: All right, let's get to that Mirror Chamber.*So with that, Midna warps Lewa to the Mirror Chamber in Po-Metru, ready to assemble the Mirror of Twilight to face Zant. He presents the other shards in front of the broken mirror, and they all magically assemble to form the full Mirror of Twilight once more. As the mirror glows and activates, the chains holding the stone slab break and it plummets into the ground. The mirror then projects a portal onto the stone slab.*Midna: Now, Lewa, I have to warn you… The Twilight Realm isn't your average everyday sort of vacation spot. It's a zone of sight, taste, and smell. And capable of making sure normal things don't happen to you very often.Lewa: What's it like?Midna: You get your own taste of the Twilight realm in some ways… It holds a serene beauty. You've seen it yourself when the sun sets on this world.Lewa: Oh… like the time between night and day. Midna: Yes, Lewa, that is why it's called the Twilight Realm. What else did you think it was?Lewa: I don't know.Midna: It was peaceful until a dark entity invaded.Fire Sage: It was all our doing.Midna: So… you finally admit it is your fault! I kind of already knew that, based on how poorly you handled Antroz and not only let him live, but just sent him to our home!Light Sage: Well, excu-uuuuse me, Twilight Princess.Lewa: What?? Midna? You're--?Midna: Well… I guess now you know… I didn't really want you to find out like this.Lewa: What… happened…?Midna: It started with Zant's rise to power…*Flashback, Zant is invading the Palace of Twilight with his Shadow Beasts and he has cornered the tall, elegant figure of Midna, slowly approaching her at her balcony.*Zant: Ah, Midna, isn't this just so romantic? It's just you and me… you in my clutches!Midna: What do you want with me?!Zant: I'm just going forward with my plan, as my spirit guide advised me to! Midna, from the first day we met, I had these powerful feelings for you…Midna: No, get back!Zant: I was hoping that when I was named as ruler, I could then have you as my queen so we could rule the Twilgiht Realm and make things the way we always wanted to!Midna: I'd never rule with you! You've changed! Zant: Why are you in freak mode?Midna: ME?! You're the freak here Zant! I'm doing this because of what you've done! What you plan to do! I admired you once, Zant, but that was a long time ago… when you were different. But now I see your true colors and so did my father!Zant: Yes… that's why I personally disposed of him.Midna: What?!Zant: Yes, you see, I thought he would be a minor flaw in my great plan, so I ate him!Midna: You monster! How do you think I'd ever side with you?! Murderer! You're insane!Zant: No! You're insane, Midna! All of you are insane! I'm the only same person left in this world! If you won't join me, then you're my enemy! Feel the power of my god! *Zant then delivers a powered back-handed slap to Midna's face, not only striking her down, but turning her into an imp-like creature, by using the powers granted to him.*Midna, voice-over: Zant swept through the Palace of Twilight and personally took me down, taking me down from power and then putting himself in my place. All I could do was wander through aimlessly, banished and ashamed. Then I got hope in the form of the fused shadows and an ancient prophecy that spoke of a hero that would appear as a divine beast. I thought I could use you… When I saw you, I thought you would be the one. But after seeing all you and Nokama put yourselves through, I realize not everyone in this realm is truly bad. Your sacrifices opened my eyes…*End flashback.*Lewa: Now that is seriously messed up.Midna: Now we have to go and teach Zant a lesson. We have to take him down so things can go back to normal and I can have my tall, gorgeous beauty back. Just step into that white light through the staircase from the mirror.Lewa: Okay… as long as I don't get turned into clinkers.*Lewa steps into the light and is turned into clinkers like the ones that surrounded the world when it was plunged into twilight.*Lewa: Argh, it hurts!*Lewa is then whisked away. As each of the black squares makes their way to points A, B, C, D, and as well as points E, F, G, H, I and J, K, L, Lewa goes into what could be his potential tomb and resting place as he faces the usurper of the Twilight realm's throne. His ultimate destination? The Zone Where Normal Things Don't Happen Very Often.*
  4. One thing people liked with the original ADITLOT was how every character had their own personality and how I made "Every character crazy in ever way possible," with the exception of Teridax. Speaking of him, the reason I think you feel that way is because Teridax is my jab at your stereotypical cartoon villainy. So yeah, he's supposed to be that way. That's kind of why I like writing about him in this way. Same goes for Mutran and Icarax, and why they had some of my favorite lines in this series and the original series. Gorast is a close fourth as well, so she definitely gets some good lines and moments. Hodge Podge is meant to be bizarre, sort of showing how he is became a mutant and thus reflecting his bizarre appearance, versus his suave sophisticated personality as Algorox (which unfortunately you don't see in this series, and I wish I had an episode fully dedicated to Algorox as his old self). His son/twin Ailles had this sort of personality, but as he went on he became insane as Hodge Podge. I'm glad to hear you like the series and I hope you continue to enjoy it in the future. Definitely an honor to hear your thoughts and to know you actually went and read the first few chapters. Here is the next one, speaking of which. Caution: Part of this chapter was written by the old ShadowBionics. For those of you familiar with the old ADITLOT, you know what to expect. For those of you who aren't... well, get ready for a joyride! Episode 4: I was a Teenage Natalie *Somewhere in… Midgar?* *Icarax, lost in his dimensional travels, falls through the ceiling and becomes unconscious for a while. He’s woken up by someone shouting in his non-existent ears.*Aerith: Hello-oooooooooooo?Icarax: Gah?!Aerith: Hooray!Icarax: I’m awake! Huh?*Icarax takes a while to look around, only to be more confused than he already is… which is even more confused than he’s always been.*Icarax: Am I dead?Aerith: Not quite.Icarax: Are you an angel?Aerith: No. I’m Aerith. *giggles* You fell through the ceiling. That’s hot.Icarax: Um… So you’re my rescuer, then?Aerith: Nope.*She turns around and imitates how she was when she found Icarax.*Aerith: Hello-ooooooooooo? *Turns back around* That’s all I did.*both laughing*Icarax: Why am I laughing like a moron?*Inside Icarax’s head, in his memories*(Teridax: you nickel-plated twit! You distasteful duncebucket! )Icarax: Oh, yeah… maybe that’s why I was a fan-favorite character based off an actual Bionicle character.*Then somehow, Icarax does a back flip and gets on his feet.*Icarax: I’m very good a back flips. Or at least, I’ve gotten good a back flips ever since I got lost on this weird voyage.Aerith: Really? What happened?Icarax: Well…*flashback, ADITLOT Chapter 116*Mutran: No, I was afraid of this!Mutraine: Stop saying that when you obviously aren’t!Gorast: What are you doing here?Chirox: Trying to stop the zombies Mutran created.Gorast: So you started this?! *She jump onto Mutran as he gets up, beating him senseless.* You’ve really messed up big time, Mutran! If these zombies don’t kill you, I will!Mutraine: Get in line, I called killing him first.Icarax: And what exactly are you trying to do to stop these zombies?Mutran: I made this gun-thing, and I was hoping it would return the zombies back to their graves. But now that Teridax broke it, I don’t think it might work.Teridax: Oh, sure, blame your mistakes on me.Chirox: It doesn’t look that bad. Try it out! *He takes the thing from Mutran and he aims it.*Mutran: Wait, it hasn’t been tested yet!Chirox: Then there’s no better time than right now! *He accidentally fires it at Icarax, sending him to his death.*Mutraine: What’d you do that for?Chirox: I don’t know.Gorast: So did you kill him or what?Mutran: I’m not so sure. Since I haven’t tested it yet, the results are yet to be determined.Teridax: Then may Mata Nui save Icarax, wherever he may be.*At some random house, in the Real World…**Within this particular house, there was a meeting among a few girls, but they weren’t just any girls, oh no. They were Twilight fans… Well most of them anyway. Caution: The following scene might become graphic. Pregnant children and small women are advised to leave the room.*Girl 1: I don’t think the series is good because I don’t like love stories or the supernatural.Girl 2: How dare you, it’s the best series that was ever made, better than Harry Potter!Girl 3: How can you not like it?! Something’s wrong with you!*Just then Icarax, just pops in from out of nowhere.*Icarax: Uh, what just happened?Girl 3: Wait, who is that?!Girl 2: He must be a vampire!Girl 4: Just like in Twilight!Girl 5: Are you sure?Girl 1: He’s just a Makuta. You know, from Bionicle.Girl 2: Shut up, you’re not welcome here!Girl 3: We don’t have to listen to you!Icarax: Oh, boy. I’m dead.*End flashback…*Aerith: Wow. That’s pretty strange. That’s hot.Icarax: And you have graphics that rival Doom 3.Aerith: I think you can think of better pick-up lines than that.Icarax: Hmm… something about this seems eerily familiar… *Meanwhile, back on Destral where we have some actual plot development…* Gorast: Teri… I’m scared. Chirox: What’s all the yelling about? Teridax: Kojol just added two negatives together. Chirox: But I hate math! Teridax: You pointy-headed geek, this isn’t about math! Kojol: Um, guys? Where did she go? Gorast: I don’t know! I was too busy looking at Teridax! Kojol: When aren’t you too busy looking at him? Gorast: That’s none of your business, Kojol! *That’s when the lights turn off.* Antroz: Hey, who turned off the lights?! *falls down the stairs painfully.* Teridax: Somehow, I think I already know… *That’s when we hear a somewhat eerie instrumental version of “Jingle Bell Rock” playing on what sounds like an old radio.* Gorast: What’s that?! Krika: That’s the song of the wax-maker before he dumps the wax on his victims. Teridax: >_> Halloween is over, Krika. *Their thoughts are interrupted when the music abruptly stops, turning into a more pop-style version of the song, lights shine from the floor, and from the ceiling comes a large disco ball with Elitha riding atop it. Not only was she doing that, but she was singing as well, showing off her surprisingly good vocal skills.* Elitha, singing: Jingle bell, jingle bell, jingle bell rock. Jingle bells swing and jingle bells ring. Snowin' and blowin' up bushels of fun.Now, the jingle hop has begun. Jingle bell, jingle bell, jingle bell rock. Jingle bells chime in jingle bell time. Dancin' and prancin' in Jingle Bell Square, in the frosty air… *The music continues as Elitha hops off the disco ball and dances happily over to Teridax.* Teridax: See, Krika? If you want to scare me, this is how you do it. *Chirox and Antroz try to go after Elitha, but she easily evades them, twirling around them and doing a spinning kick to Antroz’s face.* Antroz: This better not be permanent! Gorast: She’s lost her mind! Teridax: That’s what the stupid pills do. That’s why Roodaka often hesitated on using them on Sidorak. Elitha, singing: What a bright time, it's the right time to rock the night away. Jingle bell time is a swell time to go glidin' in a one-horse sleigh. *The music continues as she resumes her happy dance over towards Teridax.* Gorast: Who invented these?! *Flashback to an unnamed island…* Hodge Podge: HA HA HA! Now to send these to Roodaka as my test subjects! *Back to present-day Destral.* Teridax: Never mind that. WE don’t know what she’s going to do! Krika, tackle her! *Krika takes his fire extinguisher jetpack and pulls the pin.* Krika: Here comes me! *Krika takes off full blast at Elitha, but she does an incredible jump over him, grabbing him, and then turning him around so he shoots through the roof.* Krika: It’s getting pretty drafty in here! Teridax: Krika, get back down here and shield me! Gorast: I don’t think he’s going to be coming back down anytime soon. Teridax: I was afraid you’d say that. Elitha, singing: What a bright time, it's the right time to rock the night away. Jingle bell time is a swell time to go glidin' in a one-horse sleigh. Giddy-up jingle horse, pick up your feet. Jingle around the clock. Mix and a-mingle in the jinglin' feet. That's the jingle bell rock. *As Teridax tries to run away, Elitha takes him with her electrified whips and reels him in close and forcing his arms around her.* Gorast: You better not be doing what I think you’re doing if you want to continue living! *Thinking quickly, Kojol decides it was no better time than to test out Mutran’s weapon. He fires it randomly but he misses, instead hitting a flowerpot, which teleports none other than The Shadowed One back into the main universe.* TSO, breathing heavily: Wait… can it be…? *He looks around, spotting Gorast, the incapacitated Makuta, Kojol with the weapon, and Elitha with Teridax’s arms around her.* TSO: Yeah, I guess so. It’s nothing like the last place I was in. Teridax: Now’s not the time, Morton. TSO: That’s not my name, and you know it! And I have better things to do than deal with you! *The Shadowed One dashes past Teridax, knocking Elitha away from him, temporarily displeasing her, and he jumps out the window. Ironically, TSO’s Christmas tree was impounded on Destral. He hops onto it and the tree takes off, rocketing into the sky as TSO makes his great getaway.* Teridax: I never get tired of seeing that. Kojol: Let’s try this again. *Kojol fires again, hitting another flowerpot, this time bringing in Icarax.* Kojol: Aw, no! That’s not what I wanted! Icarax: Am I… home?! *Icarax looks around and sees his old friends and his old boss, as well as a new face who reminded him of someone he once liked…* Elitha, singing: What a bright time, it's the right time to rock the night away. Jingle bell time is a swell time to go glidin' in a one-horse sleigh. *She quickly uses one of her arm whips to take Teridax by the arm.* Icarax: THIS IS WHAT I WANT! Elitha, singing: Giddy-up jingle horse, pick up your feet. Jingle around the clock. Mix and a-mingle in the jinglin' feet. That's the jingle bell… That’s the jingle bell… That’s the jingle bell rock…. *Icarax tries to run after Elitha, instantly bewitched by her beautiful voice and appearance, but Kojol fires the weapon at Icarax again, blasting him back to wherever he was before… which was Midgar with Aerith.* Gorast: Why did you do that? Kojol: I don’t know about you, but I can’t stand that guy. If you keep your mouth shut, I’ll keep my mouth shut about your crush on Teridax… or your OTHER crush from the before time… Gorast: Oh! Oh… fine, it’s a deal. Kojol: On the plus side, she’s making this place so lively I almost want to dance. Gorast: Now’s not the time to get down, Kojol. Kojol: “Get down?” Gorast: We have to get her out of here. Kojol: Okay. Well, I remember this from before Teridax dropped the building on me… Elitha, singing: That's the jingle bell… That’s the jingle bell… That’s the jingle bell rock…! *Kojol went and snuck on Elitha one more time while she was forcing Teridax to twirl her around. Then he grabbed a boulder and hit her on the head. Elitha then falls over, unconscious.* Gorast: Wait, so that’s all we had to do?! *That’s when Krika fell through the ceiling and landed on Gorast.* Krika: What’d I miss? Kojol: Yeah, I guess so. I didn’t think it’d even work. I figured I’d just make her mad at me and then she’d chase after me and I’d have to run for it. Gorast, pushing off Krika: So all the fighting, all the trans-dimensional transporting, all of that was useless? Kojol: Well, you could say that. At least I brought back The Shadowed One. *Gorast runs over to him and knocks his head off.* Gorast: How is that good? Kojol: Now we can have some actual excitement. *Kojol’s body reaches for the head and puts it back on.* Gorast: Hmph! You’re almost as dumb as Mutran. Kojol: You would know, wouldn’t you…? Gorast: … I thought I made it clear no one was to know about that! I’m in love with Teridax now! Kojol: Trust me, this is too delicious for me to let go. But I’m not going to say a word. Teridax, getting up: So… she’s out? Krika: I must give her mouth-to-mouth resurgification! Antroz, grabbing him: I wouldn’t do that, if I were you. Teridax: Chirox! Mutran! Get over here! Chirox: Yes, Teridax? Mutran, waking up: What’s the commotion about? Teridax: I want you to find a way to either contain Elitha or get rid of her. Mutran: I’ll have to analyze the results on the computer. Chirox: We don’t need to do that. We just have to think of a good imprisonment for her. And I think I got a good solution. Tridax showed me this. Before he went away. Gorast: Where is he, anyway? Tridax, southern accent: I’m right here. What makes you think I went anyplace? Teridax: Oh… well, it’s just that you didn’t show up again until now and we thought you were gone like you know who and all of the other missing operatives. Tridax: Well, no siree. I’ve been here the whole time, but no one ever paid me any attention. Chirox: Well, in that case, get over here and help me. Grab her feet and I’ll take her arms. Mutran, help me get her up. Teridax: And I guess that’s the end of that… although now, she’s going to be singing songs with her beautiful accented voice. Gorast: Well, it’s better than he trying to kill you. Teridax: That’s very true.
  5. Chapter 22, continuing with Lewa's attempts to get to the city in the sky. In this chapter, there's also some major plot points revealed as well as some call-backs to The Dimwit of Time and The Moron's Mask that kind of come into play in this story. So for those who hate the fact I include the side-quests with the Hero's Shade, there's an important reason as to WHY HE NEEDED to be in the story for this to work. *Upon taking the ancient sky book to Nuju, he learned there was a secret word that would allow Lewa to move the bird statue in the basement of Tahu hotel/carnival. When asking how to obtain the word, Nuju simply told him there were 6 other bird statues all throughout Metru Nui, much to Lewa's annoyance. Nuju then reminded him to help Hahli get her memory back, more so to Lewa's annoyance. Lewa grimaced as he went back upstairs to show Hahli the fancy whistle she left with Riskaz.*Lewa: Hello… you. Do this look familiar?*He gives the whistle to Hahli, triggering something in her subconscious.*Hahli: I… I knew you once. We lived in a small village for so long as friends.Lewa: Yay, she remembers me now.Hahli: I was talking about Epona.Lewa: Why are you obsessed with my horse?? It's eerie-creepy! You got all mad-flustered when you saw that small scratch on her leg and you tried to steal her from me!Hahli: Is it wrong I like nature so much?Lewa: No, but in your case, it's utter creepiness.Hahli: Well don't worry, Lewa. Besides, I remember you, too.Lewa: Okay, good to know that.*So after the moment was totally ruined, Hahli and Lewa collect themselves together.*Hahli: I made this charm as a horsecall so you can call Epona anytime you wanted.Lewa: Oh, good… but…Hahli: What is it?Lewa: Wouldn't it have been better to give this to me in the beginning? You know, considering my adventure is more than half way over and I've been giving Epona a break? Speaking of which…*Lewa didn't really know where he left Epona, but he actually left her somewhere back in Ga-Metru near Lake Hylia after meeting with the two scary clown guys.*Hahli: Well, it's the thought that counts, right?Lewa: I guess you're right. Still, it would have been more practical for me to get this when it was more relevant, which would be the first half of the story and not near the end when I have a new way to travel. *glares at the game developers who made the game this story is based off.**While going off to find these six statues, Lewa was met with a familiar golden/white wolf who tried to bite his head off. Lewa once more found himself in the same realm as the Hero's Shade.*Hero's Shade: Back again, are you now?Lewa: Yeah, although I was kind of in the middle of something. Hero's Shade: Are you ready to learn the last hidden skill?Lewa: No.Hero's Shade: Then get away from me! You're a disgrace! I hate you! You're stupid, ugly, and I hope you die slowly and painfully!Lewa: I was just kidding.Hero's Shade: I was like you once… and then--Lewa: You took and arrow to the knee?Hero's Shade: No! And don't say that. It's an overused meme that's stupid anyway. It was on the day after I returned to Metru Nui from fighting the Night Nurse, Elitha, and found out Antroz escaped due to those sages who don't do anything… I realized all the fun-games stopped then and there. I realized that not only could I not hold onto my friends for so long, but I also realized I can't solve every little problem that goes wrong in the world. I killed off Elitha but not Antroz.Lewa: So that means…Hero's Shade: I am your ancestor.Lewa: So then is it true you got dragged to the funny farm?!Hero's Shade: No. Who told you that?Lewa: I don't know, I read it somewhere.Hero's Shade: Well, they're liars! I was never at the funny farm! No one in our family has!Lewa: I woke up in a jail once after I got turned into a wolf.Hero's Shade: I got thrown into jail by a bunch of Vortixx. Lewa: Wow… I never knew we had so much in common before… aside from the fact we both use swords and use treespeak.Hero's Shade: And that it is it is up to you as one of my descendants to do the things I couldn't do and correct my past mistakes.Lewa: All right. So what do you have for me this time?Hero's Shade: First let's review the jump strike.*Lewa focuses on his target, and with his sword he jumps and strikes the ground with all his might.*Hero's Shade: Excellent. Now for the final hidden skill. Let the great spin be hewn into your mind. This is a forgotten skill and a hidden technique, but such secrets never leave our bloodline.Lewa: So how does it go?Hero's Shade: It's a skill that first needs you to be full-health.*The Hero's Shade uses his strange, magical powers to heal Lewa to full health.*Lewa: Um… wow… Thank you for that.Hero's Shade: Being at full health and with the power of your past skills, you can magnify the power of the spin attack and use it at its full potential. *Lewa then attempts to use the spin attack, charging up the Master Sword, and unleashing a mighty spin that takes out the Hero's Shade from a somewhat farther range than Lewa can usually get.*Hero's Shade: Excellent. The final hidden skill, the great spin, has been passed… Go, and do no falter, my child…*With that, Lewa is transported back to Metru Nui, having seen his ancestor for the last time. True to his word, he went on with the intention of fulfilling his wishes… So about six annoyingly hidden bird statues later, Lewa finds six pieces of parchment that, when put together in the right order, made the phrase needed to move the other statue in the basement. So having completed that in a very annoying, drawn-out side quest that made me lose my mind (yes, you're welcome for skipping said side quest), Lewa returned to Nuju to see what he would say.*Nuju: What's this? There's more words in the book now! Don't tell me you actually went out and gathered the last of the words, did you?!Lewa: Yes, and don't remind me…Nuju: All right, the ancient phrase that will allow you to move the statue with the Dominion Rod is… "Dry Clean Only."*The ancient "lock" on the statue then disappears the moment Nuju finishes reading those words.*Nuju: That's amazing! And no, I'm not quoting myself from Legends of Metru Nui.*Lewa walks over to the statue with the Dominion Rod, moves it over, and walks into the room that was hidden behind it. There, inside this massive chamber that was somehow hidden in Ta-Metru all these years with no one ever knowing, was a cannon with two chicken legs.*Nuju: This has to be the ancient sky cannon I read about in my studies!Lewa: You're getting a bit too excited, you know?Nuju: I have a feeling you're going to be needing this cannon, aren't you?Lewa: Well, I don't know any other way to fly-reach this city in the sky.Nuju: I understand. Still, this is an amazing discovery.Lewa: But it's not like the cannon is going to disappear. I just need to get it fixed-running again.Nuju: All right. Let me know about that when you're finished. I really love this book, you know? This book has opened the door to many great discoveries. *So Nuju wanders off to let Lewa be with the cannon. In the mean time, Lewa had to figure out what to do with it.*Lewa: I don't know anyone who fixes cannons though!Midna: Well, there's a certain clown with a belly shirt who might disagree with you.Lewa: Do I have to?Midna: We have to get this thing fixed, Lewa. By any means necessary.Lewa: Okay, but I won't like it. Let's go to Lake Hylia.*So Midna warps the cannon and Lewa over to Lake Hylia, dropping the cannon in an empty piece of land. Lewa returned to his Toa self and made his way over to Fyer.*Fyer: Oh, hello there. I see you've brought a cannon here.Lewa: Yeah, and I need you to fix it for me.Fyer: No problem. I know a lot about cannons anyway. How did you get it here, though?Lewa: Uh… I got it on one of those delivery trucks.Fyer: Really? Cool. Well, let's have a look-see.Lewa: I didn't know you spoke treespeak.*The both of them go over to the cannon to inspect it.*Fyer: Kind of old, isn't it?Lewa: This guy told me it was an ancient sky cannon.Fyer: I think I can do it, but for a price. I need 300 rupees and 3 days. In advance.Lewa: So I have to?Fyer: Either that or live with a broken cannon for the rest of your life and like it.Lewa: Fine… as long as everything is sped up to catchy music.Fyer: Deal.*So Lewa gave him the time and money and Fyer begins working on the cannon in fast motion to the scary circus music from before.*Lewa: No! I said catchy music! This music wants to make me throw myself off a bridge…! Again.*Eventually, the 3 days have passed and the cannon is ready.*Lewa, cowering in fear: Is it over?Fyer: Yup. All finished. Have fun. I'm not sure what you're going to do with it, though. There's no ignition.Lewa: I'll figure something out.Fyer: Well, if you do get it working, you'll be knocking on Artakha's door, that's for sure. Literally, take this cannon and you'll be shot with so much force you could literally just go visit him and knock on his door.*After Fyer leaves, Midna decides to give him some advice.*Midna: You know, maybe you don't need an ignition. Maybe you could, oh… clawshot your way?Lewa: Well, it's worth a try.*Lewa goes over to the end of the cannon, clawhots into it via a clawshot target inside, and the cannon springs to life. As it's about to shoot Lewa to the sky, Ooccoo and Ooccoo Jr., squabbling and running, run in and jump into the cannon. Then Lewa gets shot off into the sky, embarking on quest for the last mirror shard.**Eventually, he lands into a large pool of water floating out on some small island among a larger chain of islands. Lewa was now in the ancient city in the sky Nuju went on and on about. And sure enough, there were in fact a whole bunch of other Ooccoo-type of creatures living there. Talk about a major headache.*Lewa: There's more of them?!Ooccoo: Yes? Did you really think we were the only ones?Lewa: Yes! I didn't think there was more of you!*Lewa was about to run into a shop, when a large shadow overcasts the walkway. Lewa looks up to see the form of a large, powerful dragon. After getting his bearings back, Lewa runs into the shop to find…*Lewa: There's another one!Oocca shopkeeper: (Speaking huttenese)Lewa: I can't understand a thing you're saying!!Oocca shopkeeper: Oh, sorry? I speak some Matoran. You want to buy something? I don't know how I got these bombs and arrows, but I have them.Lewa: Um… sure… I guess.Ooccoo: Excuse me, fellow adventurer, but aren't you going to go and do something about that dragon?Lewa, in denial: What dragon?Ooccoo: The one that we saw earlier?Lewa: Do I have to?Ooccoo: I'm worried about everyone here. I'll go with you if need be.Lewa: All right, but I won't like it.
  6. What a creep-face. Good chappy here. But wait... What story? Would be nice to know... Watermelon? That was actually pretty funny :P. Ch. 20: Wow. Movie reference 1. Also, I'd like to note that it's great you sped this temple. Seriously, it was WAY too long in-game. I feel no pity for this guy. Surprising? Not really. Good two chappys. ~LTT~ P.S. Oh, and how do you like my name change? Rusl is a creep-face. As for that reference, that is the Crystal King from Paper Mario. When I was writing The Dimwit of Time in 2010 I was also writing a comedy called Paper Tahu, which spoofed Paper Mario. It was only 3 chapters long before I called it quits. Mainly because not many people liked the project and I kind of lost interest myself. Before you ask, I'm not sure if it's still on BZPower... of if you can find it on BZPower... O_O I was going in with the whole "finding food" theme and thought "What if he found another food item in it?" and kind of played with that idea. I hated the temple, even thought it's the Temple of Time. They kind of made it drag on for so long, so first thing I thought to myself was "I'm going to speed it up to save me and anyone who reads it the trouble." And I've portrayed Nuju as being the smart guy who doesn't get the attention he deserves, so yeah. Cool name change. Here is chapter 21. In this one, Lewa tries to discover what happened to Hahli after she was kidnapped and what was going on during the whole time. As of this moment, the 3,000 word intro for Skyward Stooge is also finished, meaning the first 2 chapters are done (I'm going to split it). So that is coming along nicely. And since my finals are done, it means I have a little more freedom to write, so hooray for that. And by uttering that, I've become like this guy who is kind of a role model. *Day by day, there was no telling how much Antroz was growing in power or what he was doing in the Coliseum. He could have been formulating a brilliantly evil master plan. He could have been raising an army of monsters and demons. He could have been preparing some sort of ultimate weapon that he would use to exact his revenge from being locked in the sacred realm with some Southern Belle girl. Or almost. This is a different timeline after all, which means-- oh, what does it matter? Whatever it was he was doing, it was sure that he was up to absolutely nothing good at all.*Antroz, sitting down: Huh… Hmmm… it sure is taking a while for the so-called legendary hero to come and stop me. It's been a week already since I broke into the Coliseum and exacted my plan to enslave Metru Nui. What else can I even do? Whoever this guy is, can't he hurry up a little? I'm so bored. I might actually fall asleep without warning. I've done nothing but sit in this chair for a week, and it does get monotonous after a while. Maybe I should have thought this through before I really put my plan into action. Maybe I could have brought a TV or something. Maybe a few playing cards. Possibly some DVD's so I could catch up on all the movies I missed out on in the last 178 years. I mean, I have been gone for such a long time, so I can only imagine at how many movies were made and released during the time I was sealed away.[awkward pause]Antroz: I'm so bored! It's not even funny!*Well, I feel slightly better now. Since we've checked up on Antroz, how about we go check up on Lewa now? So after leaving Nuju to wallow in self-pity, Lewa decides to go back to Gali to see if she knew anything that could help about restoring Hahli's memory. Tahu stopped him and asked him to deliver a letter for her… because he apparently didn't want to go deliver it himself. So Lewa went back to see her.*Lewa: Hey, Gali, I've got a letter for you from Tahu.Gali: Whatever you say, Postman.Lewa: Whoa, whoa, whoa. I'm not The Postman.Gali: Anyone who delivers letters all look the same to me.Lewa: … That's harsh. Anyways, he said something about there being instructions here and to think while-back on if anyone met with Hahli before you did.*Gali reads through the letter quickly, and she thinks back.*Gali: Well, it was that stupid doctor who brought her in. However, he refuses to talk to anyone unless he's paid. Luckily for me, I have some dirt on him that will make him have to give in. *She hands Lewa an invoice.*Lewa: What's this for?Gali: The stupid doctor spends a lot of time drinking tons and tons of milk and he always answers to put it on his tab. Well, he's not the only one who wants to be paid. So show this to him so he will have no choice but to answer to you. Also, see if you can rough him up a bit so he can pay me back.Lewa: I can't make any promises on getting your money…Gali: Well, that's fine, but as long as he knows, it's okay.Lewa: I'm sure I can make him speak-answer me.Gali: And while you're at it, why don't you make him cough up the wooden idol he stole from Hahli.Lewa: Why did he take a wooden idol from her? Wait, why did she even have one in the first place?Gali: I don't know, but I know that doctor has something he's not telling us.*So Lewa goes to see the doctor to make him talk. He was sitting at his chair, fast asleep.*Lewa, yelling: Hey, Strakk Frost!!Strakk, gasping: Vhazzut?! Vhere's my money?! Oh… you're the heroic young green freak who saved that girl and that boy for free. People like you disgust me. Vhy do things for free?Lewa: Stop acting like a fool and talk.Strakk: Not until I get paid. Pay me first.Lewa: Shut up and listen. You have to pay this right now! *Lewa shows him Gali's invoice, which knocked off that smug expression from his face.*Strakk: I told her to put it on my tab!Lewa: Well, you can only put so much on your tab, so if you don't want me to knock-rough you around, you're going to talk and we'll call it even.Strakk: If I could have sold the vooden idol that girl had, I'd have been able to pay off the money!Lewa: Ah, so you do admit to having the wooden idol!Strakk: Yes, I admit it! I stole it from the girl! But vhat else could I have done?! I'm just a lowly doctor! Plus it's not like she even knew who she vas, so vhat else could I have done?Lewa: People like you sicken me.Midna: You liked the idea of being a grave robber.Lewa: That was different!Strakk: If I hadn't spilled medicine on it, everything vould have been okay.Lewa: Wait, so you spilled medicine on it? Then what happened?Strakk: A pack of vild dogs attacked me and stole it. They're not so tough. They're outside the south gate.Lewa: If they're not so tough, why didn't you do anything about it?Strakk: Not unless I get paid.Lewa: I don't know who's the most worthless… you, the sages, or the dorks of the round table!*Lewa goes outside and changes into his wolf form, getting the medicine scent and then resolving to go outside the southern gate and wait for the pack of dogs to show themselves.*Midna: Why are you a wolf right now?Lewa: I'm going to face off against those wild dogs personally…Midna: Well, whatever works. It's almost sun down…*As the sun set into the sky, that's when the pack of Stalhounds show themselves.*Lewa: They're demon dogs! That crazy doctor lied to me!*Lewa, having no other choice, fights them all off one by one until the last one falls and gives up the wooden idol. Taking the wooden idol, Lewa changes back to his Toa self and goes back to New Ta-Metru to see Hahli. Oddly enough, the wooden idol had the symbol of an eye at the top of it, which looked as though it belonged to a certain tribe from long ago…*Lewa: Hey, Hahli, you remember this?*Lewa shows her the wooden idol and it suddenly jogs her memory.*Hahli: I remember something! There's some person in trouble! I don't remember where, but I know it's blocked off by some giant boulder.Onua: I know that place!Lewa: How you do conveniently know that place?Onua: Trust me, I do! Whenua, head down over there and clear the path!Whenua: You got it. *So Whenua rolls up like he does in the Toa Metru animations and he rolls away to wherever this place is. I don't understand why he doesn't do this in the actual storyline and yet he does it in those animations, but whatever.*Onua: You must go past the Eldin Bridge, and there you will find a small passageway.Lewa: Okay, now we're getting somewhere.*So a few hours of confused stumbling later, Lewa stumbles on Whenua who has finished clearing away the giant boulder with his earth shock drills.*Whenua: Oh, I was wondering when you would be getting here.Lewa: I got lost along the way.Whenua: Well, this is the way. The air is thickened with the scent of evil… and possibly cats. Since I'm allergic to cats, I can't go help you.Lewa: Why not?Whenua: Last time I was in a place full of cats… let's just say a lot of renovations had to be done.Lewa: Oh… I get you. Well, see you later then.*Lewa walks into the hidden village. As he does, a small gust of sand blows in, blowing a tumbleweed in front of him. Lewa stops in front of the charred sign that reads "Ta-Metru Forge," to see a bunch of Bulblin monster archers all lined up at specific posts. It was a moment of truth and a moment of trial as Lewa stared down at each one of them, all of them staring right back at him as well. Lewa was ready with his bow, as were the other archers. It was just a matter of who would make the first move and who was first to draw.**At that moment, Lewa drew his bow and started taking down a few of the archers before they could even react in time. Using a combination so speed and stealth, Lewa was able to take down a majority of the archers, who didn't stand a chance against him. Eventually, he took down all 20 of them. As they were all finished, Lewa heard the sound of a door unlocking. He took a moment to look around and see the village was nearly dead, except for a few cats that now roamed freely with the monsters gone.*Lewa: Is there still one left?*A door of one single house on the other end of the village opens and out comes an elderly female.*Riskaz: Are all the evil hooligans finally gone?Lewa: Yeah, thanks to me.Riskaz: Thank you very much. I am the sole survivor of an old tribe who once founded this small village here in the old Ta-Metru.Lewa: Wait, this is the old Ta-Metru? I was wondering why everything was charred-burned. Riskaz: Yes. My name is Riskaz.Lewa: And I am Lewa. Can you tell me something about some girl named Hahli?Riskaz: Oh, of course, how could I forget about her? She got on my nerves and threatened to kick me down the stairs.Lewa: Yup, that sounds a lot like her. How'd she lose her memory?Riskaz: Well, she spoke a lot of you and a lot of some horse named Epona and how she didn't want Epona to get hurt because of you. She threatened me if I tried to keep her from Epona. So I took this old book, threw it at her head, and then left her to wander around Ga-Metru.[Awkward pause]Lewa: You are the greatest person who has ever lived.Riskaz: Thank you. Sorry for making her lose her memory, however. I must have overdone it.Lewa: No, it's fine, I understand. It's a simple, unavoidable mistake.Riskaz: Well, I might as well give this thing to you. She made it when she wasn't make a racket and going on about Epona. It might help restore her memories… You're not going to do that, are you?Lewa: I'd rather not. I like her better the way she is now. All nice and not complaining and yelling at me.Riskaz: I might as well give you it anyways since I don't know what to do with it.Lewa: What is it?Riskaz: I'm not sure. It looks like some kind of whistle. Apparently she made it for Epona.Lewa: Of course, she did… The little weirdo. Riskaz: While I'm at it, here's the book I used to make her lose her memory. It's something about some ancient city in the sky, and I was told to hang onto it for when the chosen hero would need it. I think that's supposed to be you.Lewa: Yup. Riskaz: Well, here you go. I take it you have the dominion rod?Lewa: Yeah, but it's worthless now.*Lewa holds it out, and sure enough it was still powerless.*Riskaz: Well, there's something supposed to be in that book to fix that problem.Lewa: Well, thank you very much, and I will be sure to do just that. *We cut to the basement in the New Ta-Metru hotel/carnival…*Nuju: YES! FINALLY! I HAVE IT! ALL THESE WASTED YEARS PAY OFF NOW!!Lewa: I take it you're cheer-happy I brought you this book.Nuju: You bet I am! I can now move on with my research and keep going forward with my life! I can finally do all the things I've always wanted to do, but couldn't due to my studies getting in the way! Now I can pick up from where I last left off. Now then, there's a magic word to move this statue by using some magic Dominion Rod, and this book has that exact word in here someplace!Lewa: Great. Well, go on and do the honors.Nuju: And the magic word is… Pickle.*Nothing happens… or so, it seems…*Nuju: Hmm… Well, at least we're one step closer to solving this mystery.*That's when Lewa notices the Dominion Rod glowing with power once more. The power of the Dominion Rod was back!*Lewa: Well, you can say that.Nuju: Hmm… you might still need this book. Hang onto it, I guess. In the mean time, why not try and help Hahli with her memory?Lewa: Oh… that. Darn it. Well, I guess all good things come to an end. It's like that song says.
  7. And here is chapter 20 of the story, meaning we are 2/3 done with it. Not a whole lot to say about this chapter, although has some bad puns and movie references. *After opening a doorway into the distant past, Lewa walked into the Temple of Time, which seemed to have had a lot of renovations ever since the day of the Hero of Time. Like, the statues were never there. And where's the place where the spiritual stones went? Oh, well, never mind. Well, anyways, Lewa walked into the ancient temple and right back to where the pedestal was. Unsure of what else to do, he decided to try it again.*Lewa: It worked before, so might as well try again.*Lewa struck the pedestal with the Master Sword, and it created a glowing stairway all the way to the window that Navi went through those many years ago… I can't help but wonder…?*Lewa: All right, a stairway to heaven!*Before Lewa could even take a step, the squabbling Ooccoo and Ooccoo Jr. go past him and go all the way up the stairs and through the window, a lot like how Navi did 178 years ago.*Lewa: What in Mata Nui's chimpanzee face…? What is Ooccoo doing here?*Confused, Lewa goes up the stairs and right through the window. Surprise, it was a hologram all the time. It was hiding the rest of the Temple of Time this whole entire time… which oddly means the rest of it must have been pretty dang well hidden considering there never looked like there was more to the temple aside from the entrance and the sword chamber. Anyways, Lewa meets up with Ooccoo once again.*Lewa: Ooccoo, why are you so strange-crazy?Ooccoo: Well, excuse me for being excited.Lewa: Excited for what?Ooccoo: They key to getting back home is somewhere in this temple!Lewa: And just where is your home?Ooccoo: Somewhere in the sky.Lewa: Hmm… I think someone was trying to tell me something about a city in the sky.Ooccoo: You must take me there!*And so Lewa reunites with Ooccoo once again, but this time around he's not as annoyed like he has been in the past. As he went into the door, he noticed two bells and one statue underneath one of them…**So much, much, much, much, much, much, much, much later, Lewa ends up in the only room on the eighth floor.*Lewa: I went all this way just to find out there's an empty room in here?! What a rip-off! Hey, a suit of armor. This better not be like the last time when one of them came to life and tried to kill me.*Lewa approaches the armor, and sure enough the armor is in use and it is "alive." It was a dark knight. I mean, a Darknut. But you could think of him as a dark knight. The Darknut turns around to face Lewa.*Darknut, as Christian Bale Batman: Why you wanna kill me?Lewa: What?Darknut: I said why you wanna kill me, Joker?Lewa: I'm not a joker. And I can't understand you.Darknut: Don't play games with me, Joker! *punches Lewa.*Lewa: Argh… that hurt.Darknut: Tell me where's Harvey Dent!Lewa: I don't know if that was a question or statement.Darknut: Where is he?!Lewa: I have no idea what you're saying. It's all just guttural sounds.*The Darknut then challenges Lewa in a sword duel while shouting things that Lewa could not understand.*Darknut: Where is he?!Lewa: Learn how to talk!!*Lewa manages to cut away most of his armor, staggering him.*Darknut: Take this big sword!*Lewa manages to dodge the sword as the Darknut threw it at him.*Lewa: Ha! You just threw your only weapon away! What are you going to do now?*The Darknut then unsheathes a small sword.*Lewa: Darn it, he's got another sword! Well, no matter. Prepare to die!*Lewa manages to deliver a few back slices to the Darknut, defeating him and making sure he won't ever rise again.*Darknut: You are the symbol of justice I can never be…Lewa: Yeah, well, whatever to you, too.*After the Darknut dies, Lewa goes to claim the item for the temple, and he is awarded the glowing Dominion Rod.*Lewa: This… this is what I get? What does it do?*Lewa tries it out, and he gains control of one of the statues.*Lewa: Okay, so I can control statues… that's not bad, but I thought it'd be something cooler.Midna: Lewa, see if you can get that statue beneath that bell, that way you can send it back to that bell at the beginning of the temple.Lewa: I don't think it works that way, but worth a shot. *Lewa uses the Dominion Rod to move the statue over to the bell on the other end of the room, and trusting Midna's words, he began his 2 hour journey back down to the beginning of the temple where he saw the other statue and the two bells. Sure enough, when he walked in, the bell lowered itself and revealed the statue.*Lewa: Okay, I guess we're even now, Midna.Midna: You got that right. I figured the bell had to do something since it's in this place more than once. Now let's go into the door. I still don't understand how the mirror shard ended up in the past, but then again I don't understand how a lot of this stuff is happening in the first place.*So Lewa goes into the door and works his way inside the chamber, which is very dark save for some light shining in through some openings in the ceiling. Who knew all of this was in the Temple of Time? Lewa got startled when a shadow blocked off one of the openings of light and he looked up to be met with a single orange eye staring right back at him. The eye of Twilit arachnid Armogohma… who I don't think is related to Queen Gohma from the that one part of the story I skipped because I saw no point, but oh well.*Lewa: Spiders… why does it always have to be spiders? Well, rule of thumb… see a giant eye, sharp-shoot an arrow at it.*Lewa takes out his bow, shoots an arrow at the spider's large eye on its back, and sure enough it falls down from the sharp pain.*Midna: Now hurry up and use that statue to smash it.Lewa: Already on it.*Lewa takes the Dominion Rod, takes control of the statue, and commands the statue to use its giant fist to kill the evil insect, sure enough delivering the killing strike. With that, the evil mutant spider curls up like all spiders do when they die, and explodes. Lewa was triumphant and as he was about to put his sword away, he looked and saw that Armogohma wasn't truly dead… instead, Armogohma just exploded into a bunch of smaller spiders and the single eye being the largest of them.*Lewa: Seriously, why does it always have to be spiders?*Lewa runs after the spiders in a somewhat amusing chase, shooting arrows at the "eye" spider, until he finally kills said spider and the rest all die off conveniently. NOW he was triumphant and now able to claim the mirror shard… for like 2 seconds before Midna takes it.*Midna: Come on, Lewa, you know the rules.Lewa: Yeah, yeah, I'm apparently not allowed to hold the stuff we get from the temples.Midna: That's right, so no touching the mirror shard. So now that only leaves one more to go.Lewa: Yeah, and I wonder where it might be. Didn't one of those sages say it'd be in the clouds?Midna: In that case, why don't we try and find that nerd who was going on about that city in the sky?Lewa: Oh, that annoying guy. Well, all right.*So Lewa goes through the magic exit and proceeds outside of the Temple of Time. That's when he notices something happens.*Lewa: Why did the Dominion Rod suddenly go dark? It was all bright-glowing before.Midna: Maybe because we left the past, so it doesn't work anymore.Ooccoo: No, now we'll never get home!Lewa: You're still here? Wait, so this…? This is the thing that'll get you home?Ooccoo: Well, sort of. It's rather complicated. But that weapon needs to be powered up again.Lewa: And how do I do that?Ooccoo: What do I look like, an encyclopedia? Figure that out on your own. *With that, Ooccoo and Ooccoo Jr. go off again, squabbling like strange creatures.*Midna: Wait, get back over here! Tell us how to... Oh, forget it. You're just as bad as the sages!Lewa: Well, not sure what to do now…Midna: We don't, but there might be someone who does. Lewa: What do you mean?Midna: Here's an idea: Find that nerd guy.Lewa: Oh, right, him. I don't want to…Midna: Just do it.*To save a bit of time and writing, Lewa goes to Gali's bar as always, but it turns out Nuju was doing some studying in New Ta-Metru's hotel and carnival for whatever odd reason, so Lewa had to go over there now, which was no problems since Midna could warp him. So after that, Lewa goes into the hotel and carnival to talk to the insane pyromaniac Tahu.*Tahu: Oh, hello there, Lewa.Lewa: Hey, there, you wacko nutcase.Hahli: Hi, Lewa!Lewa: Hello… you…*Lewa couldn't help but think about the past moments he had with Hahli, and they really weren't all that great, considering it mostly consisted of her yelling at him and stealing his horse. Plus, she owed him money. Safe to say, Hahli wasn't exactly his most favorite person at the moment…*Tahu: What brings you here to the hotel and carnival?Lewa: I was looking for a way to get to some sort of city in the sky, which all of a sudden because mega-important.Tahu: Well, lucky for you, there is a Ko-Metru big brained nerd downstairs in the basement. Kopaka: Why are you so mean to us?Tahu: Because it's funny. In the mean time, we've been trying to help Hahli get her memory back. Lewa: How?Tahu: Well, I tried shouting in her ear. I tried to do a dance tribute to Carrie Underwood. I tried to hang her over a cliff upside down. I even tried to feed her loads and loads of garlic. None of it worked.Lewa: Darn. I'd think the hanging her over a cliff would have worked for sure.Tahu: I even enlisted the help of some old friends.Onua: Hey, there.Lewa, yelps: Why are they here?Whenua: We're here to help.Lewa: How can they help us?Onua: Well, Bomonga always has these ways to deal with craziness, but Tahu won't let us do anything.Tahu: I might be insane, but I keep telling you that hitting her over the head with a rock isn't going to help any.Lewa: Well, you never know. I'm going to go talk to the big-brain now.*A few moments later in the basement.*Nuju: Hello there, Lewa. What brings you to my place of studying?Lewa: Well, I heard you were doing some research on some city in the sky, and--Nuju: Oh, happy day! Finally, somebody believes! After all these wasted years, there's someone who actually believe in my theories and research!Lewa: That's nice. But anyways, I really need to get there. I have a feeling it has something to do with this Dominion Rod thing.Nuju: Where did you get this?Lewa: I went back in time and stole it.Nuju: Um… okay. But there is no denying it is the ancient Dominion Rod. Oh, but if only it were to work as it did back in the old times.Lewa: Why is that?Nuju: I've done a lot of research and there are still a few missing pieces to the puzzle.Lewa: When did this become a puzzle?Nuju: That's just a metaphor, but stay with me. Aside from what's missing, I can conclude the way to the city in the sky revolves around the Dominion Rod and that owl statue over there.*Nuju points behind him, over to an owl statue.*Nuju: If legend is correct, the Dominion Rod is the only thing that can help to move this statue and find a way to this city. And then my research also leads me to believe a clue lies in Hahli's memory.Lewa: Hahli's memory?Nuju: Wherever she was prior to her being in Gali's bar, an important clue lies there as well. Lewa: So then restoring her memory really is important to this? Darn. I don't want to have to listen to her loud-shouting at me again. But I guess I'm going to have to.Nuju: Yes, that's right. After we've found out where she was before all of this, only then might we have a chance at discovering the secret.Lewa: Wow, that was actually very helpful. Thank you.Nuju: You're very welcome. Now if you'll excuse me, I'm going to wrap myself in a blanket and cry my heart out.Lewa: All right…
  8. ...maybe it's because I just haven't played Twilight Princess in a year or so, but I don't...really...get...this at all. Asking for his earring back all of a sudden, and then Lewa pretending he doesn't have it is "low?" Is it a low blow because he doesn't have ears? What makes this a "low blow?" My other main complaint would be the lack of any form of scene transition. Lewa continually bounces from one area to another, going from Kakariko, to learning a sword technique, to Snowpeak, in the span of 15 or so lines. The issue with that is it leads to some rather jarring changes in locale as well as never giving the scene any time to develop any sort of real jokes or humor, especially when so much of the comedy is devoted to following the plot of TP so closely. Perhaps covering one area a bit more in-depth-ly, and sacrificing some additional element, might help with that. At any rate, those are my opinions, take them or leave them for whatever they're worth. I look forward to the Skyward Sword parody(you should have a field day with Fi). -MT TP has a convoluted storyline that doesn't make sense at some points, even contradicting, so I wouldn't blame you got not liking it. But I figured since I started on the "Link/Child" Timeline, I'd go all the way versus jumping around between this and the "Zelda/Adult" Timeline. And I'm almost questioning tackling the "Ganon/Defeated/Decline/Downfall/Cop-Out" Timeline. Yes, I probably might have, but considering how there are many NPCs in the world of Zelda, it would almost be impossible. At least, it was impossible for me in 2010, and it wasn't all that possible for me now. That's why some characters have unaltered names. I've tried to change some names and add familiar Bionicle characters everyone is familiar with, but like I mentioned in some other post, I have some characters already assigned to certain roles for other stories, so to assign them roles in this one would make things weird and maybe even throw off the rhythm of things a little. I haven't used a lot of the 2007 characters in much of anything in a while, so maybe I could have done that. Although say I used Nocturn for Yeto... what of Yeta? I suppose I could make up a female version of his species but then I don't know how it'd work. This year when I was able to sit down and really put more time into it, I tried my best to implement more Bionicle characters, even some I thought of using for canceled stories I planned out. But even then, there were still some things I couldn't find a way to change. I'm glad to hear you like those jokes that poke at the inconsistencies, those are a personal favorite if mine as well. There's a lot of things in the game that always left me asking "Why/how does that happen?" and so I used that experience in here. With that one, in the actual game, the "beastman" steals reek fish from the river outside Zora's Domain, so you need the prince's earring which is made of a special coral to catch them. From there, Link must catch one, get the scent, follow the scent, and find Yeto. In here, what I was trying to do was poke fun at how he takes a prince's earring and never gives it back, after the prince lets him just take a look at it. Hence why the prince says he wants the earring back, and Lewa simply asks "What coral earring?" To which, the prince replies "That's low," because he was just letting him see it and now he's refusing to give it back, even acting like he's never even seen/heard of it. Unfortunately you can kind of blame 2010 me for that. Because this comedy has taken much longer that it needed to be, I did my best to try and get as much of the story done as possible. As for the lack of scene transition, not much can be said there aside from Lewa has a large quest ahead of him and this is only an abridged version of said quest. Otherwise there's a good chance I'd be writing chapter 56 in 2014 and by then I might not even have the same kind of motivation and I'd just be so desperate to write something else. I'm not sure which elements to really go and sacrifice. Okay, perhaps some of the sidequests, yes, although I've already sacrificed quite a few. And then there's some that do play into the story near the very end, such as the sword technique ones. I'm not going to spoil it, but you will see why, and I think chapter 27 will demonstrate why. Thank you for taking the time to look through the story, I'm kind of honored yet surprised you did. And yes, I'm going to have a field day with Fi. Not going to spoil it, but I've had something planned out for her ever since I played the game for myself in November/December of last year. No, don't think much about it. I almost can't even get on here and post chapters due to my classes running into my time so frequently. I kind of recognized him first time, but it was after he took off his helmet that I was able to go and say "Oh, so it really was him." Before, I was like "Could that be...?" Nikila= Ashei. Pohatu= Auru, and Nuju= Shad. So yeah, that's about right. The way I've always portrayed Nuju, he was a perfect fit for Shad. Pohatu, way I've portrayed him, was always this strong, sort of smart guy who has solutions for almost anything. And for Nikila... well, I just wanted to use her somewhere and I can sort of imagine her like Ashei. Yeah... much like I decided to make Zant insane from the get-go, I decided to make King Bulblin talk from the get-go, too. Mostly to help develop him a little more before I don't use him again. Yup. That's partially why I like writing about Zant. He's probably the most insane character I've ever portrayed in any way. I always figured the sages were lazy. I mean, if they're so powerful, why don't they go and stop the mess they inevitably created? Why don't they even help? Well, glad you like the new scene better. I was torn between which one to put in, so I figured I'd put both scenes in the topic somehow. yup. I always though he was. I'm not even sure how he could see through the wolf form. Well, for this story, Ghirahim's mansion is in Snowpeak. I read about how fans wanted a snow/ice dungeon in Skyward Sword. One person suggested "something stupid, like Ghirahim's Mansion." Even though he was joking (I think) I liked that idea and I ran with it. And I'm going to run with it in the Skyward Sword one. Well, glad you like the story. And this is chapter 19 and I have no quirks or description for this one, aside from just look at it. *After Yeta marked the map to where the key was supposed to be, Lewa wasted no time heading on over there so he could obtain the sharp of the Mirror of Twilight he thought to be here.*Lewa: How does the food here stay so fresh?Midna: Think of it this way: We're in the middle of the freezing, cold weather. So it's like a giant freezer out here. Lewa: So then if we're in a freezer, that's how the food stays fresh all the time, despite being locked up in treasure chests?Midna: Pretty much. Or at least, that's just what I think. I'm mostly making this up as I go along.Lewa: Well, so far there's nothing in this room except these two suits of armor just standing there all creepy like. Well, at least I'm almost there.*As Lewa goes to the other side to open the door, the door is sealed off by metal bars.*Lewa: I think Yeta is trying to kill me.*That thought was interrupted when a ball and chain smashes through the suit of armor Lewa was standing behind. Turning around, Lewa saw that the other suit of armor was very much in use by some lunatic swinging a ball and chain around. Wasting no time, Lewa got the Master Sword ready for battle and took down the crazy lunatic and took his weapon for his own use.*Lewa: They don't call me the hater exterminator for nothing. Now to go get that key!*Lewa makes his way through the rooms and finds the other chest, opening it to find…*Lewa: Cheese…Midna: Food again?? I'm starting to get a bad feeling about this, too. She doesn't seem so sure of herself, does she?Lewa: No. I mean, why am I sprint-running around this mansion for food??*Sometime later…*Lewa: Hey, Yeto, I found more food for you.Yeto: You bring me food? You give to me!*Yeto throws down Lewa and takes the cheese from him.*Lewa, crying: What's wrong with you?! I would have let you have it if you only gave me the chance! Yeto: This soup is good. You try some?Lewa: Fine, I'll try some, but I'm still not happy about you abusing me!*Lewa takes up some of the soup in an empty bottle and holds it up.*Lewa: Is this okay, mommy?Midna: Why did you say that?Lewa: I have no idea. *He takes a sip and turns out the soup is actually very good. He takes another bottle full and goes to talk to Yeta.*Midna: All right, let's see what the deal is here.Lewa: You don't have to tell me twice. Hey, Yeta? What's wrong with you?! More food?! This would have been fine last week when I wanted food, but no! I have to find this key! And why are you trying to kill me?!Yeta: I not know what you talk about. But I sure key is right here in this room.Lewa: Is anything going to try and kill me?Yeta: I make no promises.Lewa: Well, close enough.*Lewa goes through the mansion yet again to a farther side. He goes in, and sure enough both doors on the sides lock and he finds himself face to face with a bunch of ice skelly things.*Lewa: I think I'm going to die…*Lewa takes the ball and chain and annihilates all of them out of fear of them and anger towards Yeta.*Lewa: There better be a key in here, or else Yeta won't be talking for much longer…*Lewa opens the treasure chest to get the watermelon in return. After throwing the watermelon outside the window and hitting Yeta despite the distance with it, Lewa saw another treasure chest behind the one he just opened. After opening that one, he got a key in the shape of a heart.*Lewa: Finally… why does this look like a heart?*So many years ago, I'm not even going to bother counting…*Ghirahim: Yes! Yes! Isn't it just absolutely precious? My heart is just filled with rainbows on behalf of this wonderful key shape! *End flashback.*Midna: It doesn't matter, Lewa. As long as it opens the door and we can get the mirror shard, then it's all good.*Lewa exits the room to be met with Yet, covered in watermelon, waiting for him.*Lewa: I didn't do it!Yeta: I not you what you talk about?Lewa: Uh… Neither do I. What are you doing here?Yeta: I was never sick. I was just tired.Lewa: Wait… what?Yeta: Follow me to the bedroom.Lewa: You're doing that awkward thing again.Yeta: To get mirror.Lewa: Okay, that's better.*So after following Yeta (very slowly) to the bedroom and using the heart-shaped key to open the door, Lewa went in and sure enough, there was the mirror shard against the wall.*Yeta: I not sure about giving mirror to you. Husband gave me it as gift.Lewa: I already told you, I need it to save the world or else everyone will die or be enslaved by Lord Helmet.*Suddenly, that's when Yeta was overcome by some outside force, which prompted her to lead Lewa to the mirror…*Yeta: Okay, then…*Yeta wobbles over to the mirror shard, Lewa following behind her. As the mentioned outside force leads Yeta to the mirror, something starts to happen to her… something very horrible… She begins to shiver and shake, and then she turns around, her fanged mouth and glowing red eyes set on Lewa.*Blizzeta: You no take mirror!!*That's when the mirror makes Yeta into some evil ice sorceress witch queen… thing, surrounded by ice crystals.*Crystal King: Hey, that's my thing.*Shut up, you're in the wrong story, you belong in that story I never finished writing. Anyways, after a long and drawn out fight where Lewa just smacks her around with the ball and chain, he obtains the mirror shard.*Midna: Well, that's the end of that. I feel sort of bad we had to rough her up, though.Lewa: We got the mirror shard, so let's get out of here before Yeto finds out I had to fight off his wife.Yeto: Why is wife on the floor…?Lewa: I can explain.Yeto: I'm going to kill you!!!Lewa: No, wait, let me explain! You see…*About 10 minutes later…*Yeto: Oh, Okay. I thought you got here, beat up wife, and stole mirror. Lewa: I told you I need it to save the world. Besides, you don't want to live in a world with Lord Helmet reign-controlling everyone, right?Yeto: No. I not even know who Lord Helmet is, but he sound creepy.*And so that's when Yeto decides to go take care of his wife, leading to there being two less lonely yetis in the world. And that's when Lewa and Midna left via magic exit. After that, he had Midna take him to Gali's bar since he had no idea where else to go.*Lewa: Hey, Gali? Why doesn't anyone in the group ever help me?Gali: They talk about saving the world, but they never do anything. That is why when they saw you, the decided to weigh in everything on you.Lewa: So they literally do nothing?Gali: Yup.Lewa: They're just as bad as the sages!Gali: Speaking of them, I think you need to go talk to the one who has no name.Lewa: Where is he?Gali: How would I know? I'm not the sages.Lewa: Oh, they wouldn't know either. They don't know anything.*Lewa goes over to the map at the table and figures out he is actually in the forest area. Lewa sets off to go there next, despite how much he really didn't want to meet with him.*Rusl: Hello there, Lewa.Lewa: Hey, there, creep-face. What are you doing here?Rusl: Well, I figured you need to get going to that sacred grove.Lewa: So why are you here…?Rusl: I'm here to help.Lewa: So the one person who wants to help me… is someone I refuse to get help from.Rusl: Isn't life funny that way?Lewa: Actually, no, it isn't.Rusl: Well, here is your way through this trap-infested part of the forest. *Rusl whistles and out comes a Gukko bird.*Lewa: Why does this feel familiar?Rusl: Never mind that. Meet My Dinner.Lewa: Your dinner?Rusl: No, My Dinner. My Dinner will fly you through here safely.Lewa: Well, all right.Rusl: Make sure you bring back My Dinner. After all, that is my dinner…Lewa: See you, crazy weirdo.*Lewa takes off on the Gukko bird, going through all the moving logs that could easily crush someone and a whole bunch of other traps until he arrives at the sacred grove once more.*Remote: Hello there… want to play a game?Lewa: Hello there, you adorable psychopath. No. I just want to get to the next mirror shard.Remote: Before you do that, how about a game? I call it… Survive my barrage of evil puppits while you try to catch me.Lewa: … That doesn't sound fun.Remote: It is for me. *He takes out a trumpet and plays a note, summoning a bunch of freakish puppets who try to kill Lewa. After Lewa destroys them, he chases after Remote, who just summons more puppets to kill him. Eventually, Lewa defeats the puppets and Remote, taking the trumpet and breaking it over his knee.*Lewa: I pick my teeth with puppits.Remote: Aside from you doing a bad reference to the main Bionicle story, I have to admit you did well. See you in another lifetime…*With that, Remote disappears… and by that, I mean he shuts down and proceeds to self-destruct into scrap metal.**That's when Lewa goes back to the ruins of the Temple of Time, exactly as he left it before when he got the Master Sword.*Midna: Well, we're here. So now what? There's nothing here but trees and grass and bugs.Lewa: Oh, my!Midna: This isn't the Wizard of Oz, Lewa, this is serious business. Lewa: Well… something tells me…Midna: What is it?Lewa: What if I put the sword back in the pedestal? Than we can time travel back to when this temple was whole and full.Midna: That's stupid. How could that work? Lewa: It worked in Back to the Future. And Bill and Ted. And Doctor Who.Midna: Those are different. You're talking about putting a sword in a stone to go back in time. That's stupid, it'll never work.Lewa: Oh, yeah? Well, watch this.*Lewa takes the Master Sword in hand, and puts it back in the pedestal, causing a great special effect like in The Dimwit of Time, but with less flashiness and antidermis. And a whole lot of nothing happening… or so they think. Outside, a statue that was guarding a useless door to nowhere disappears into nothingness.*Midna: See? I told you.Lewa: Wow, I thought it would work for sure. *They both go outside and notice the missing statue.*Midna: Wasn't there a statue in that spot earlier?Lewa: Ha! In your face! I told you I knew what I was doing!Midna, groans: Never mind, just go up there and figure out what to do now.*Lewa climbs up the edge and approaches the door. He opens it to find there is another world on the end! It was the Temple of Time, but as it appeared many years in the past… Despite all logic, Lewa goes through the door and he goes into the past. Not just a week into the past, but a great many years into it.*
  9. Ah, yes, I do indeed remember hearing about that long ago. For me, I always saw the resemblance and even thought like for Iruini, "This could work for Nidhiki if you reworked him a bit." The mask even resembles Nidhiki's head a bit, so you can even say his head was a mutated version of the mask. For Norik, I flat out saw he looked a lot like Turaga Dume with the same mask and even the body piece. Just color them different, take away the a few things, and he could pass as a Turaga Dume set. So I did have a feeling they were meant to perhaps be representations of Nidhiki and possibly Dume (although it doesn't make sense why they'd have them both together like that) as possible call backs to past Toa we hadn't seen in the story before, at least not as "Toa," maybe as promotional sets that maybe didn't play a part in the story... I mean since Nidhiki got turned into a mutant Dark Hunter that got "eaten" by Makuta, and Dume was a Turaga who didn't play much of a role in 2005. So with that, I'm guessing as others have pointed out, plans to make them be Nidhiki and Dume were scrapped, but the models were kept so that Greg could use them for Toa Norik and Toa Iruini for the flashback sequence detailing the origins of the Rahaga, and could easily be the reason why there are only 2 Toa Hagah and not 6. That, and I'm guess it'd be a stretch to release 6 promotional sets like that, so 2 would be safer. That's just my guess.
  10. Here is chapter 18, which is where I kind of had some fun messing around with some characters, mainly Nikala and The Postman, which you can tell once you start reading. As of today, the 30th chapter of TD is finished, meaning they story is complete and thus I will be able to put all 30 chapters here. Also this and chapter 19 serve as teaser for the Skyward Sword spoof. However, what I am doing is not what really happened in Skyward Sword... at least, no one thinks so. There are fans who have had ideas for what they wanted in the game, and I agree with them and I even have my own ideas, so what you're seeing here is a few of my ideas of what I would have liked in SS, and thus an idea of what to expect in the spoof. Okay, well, here is chapter 18. *After having dealt with Stallord, Lord Helmet, and the sages who don't do anything (see what I did there?), Lewa asked Midna to warp him back to the field so he could go to Gali's bar. When in doubt, visit the bar. However, when he did that, he was met with a horrible nightmare.*The Postman: HEEEEEEEEEEEEEY!!!!Lewa: NOOOOOOOOO!!!! How could he find me when I'm a wolf?!Midna: Quick, change back!*Lewa changes back to his Toa self as The Postman runs at him with high speed.*The Postman: Hello, Mr. Lewa. It's me, The Postman! Have you been reading my letters?Lewa: Thing is I wanted to, but I never got around to it.The Postman: What do you mean?Lewa: Well, you're a weird-freak and I think you're annoying. I don't like reading letters delivered by annoying weird-freaks.The Postman: Oh… is that so?*In a surprise shock, The Postman ambushes Lewa, covers his head with a brown paper bag, ties him up and drags him away, never to be seen again…*The End *Okay, that's not really how the story ends. It would be a shame if that's how it really did. The Postman takes Lewa to a secluded area. He takes the bag off his head and holds a knife to his face as he unties his hands.*Lewa: Where am I?!The Postman: It doesn't matter now, Mr. Lewa. You're going to read some of my letters now.Lewa: Are you insane? You kidnap me just so I can read letters?The Postman: You'd better do it… or else.Lewa: All right, fine. *Lewa takes a letter, opens the envelope and holds it up to the lone light shining in his face.*Lewa: "If I have a letter for you, I will approach you at high speed. Please do not flee." Okay, you monster, I read it. Now let me go!The Postman: Not yet. Read another?Lewa: Do I have to?*The Postman holds the knife closer to Lewa's face.*Lewa: Okay, okay! I'll read another one!*A few hours of reading pointless letters later…**Lewa walks into Gali's bar, panting and gasping for breath.*Gali: Hello there, Lewa. Where have you been?Lewa: Gali! I was abducted by The Postman! He forced me to speak-read his letters!Gali: Oh… you poor dear, I'm sorry to hear you went through all that pain and torment. The guys are over there talking again about saving Metru Nui. Why don't you go talk to them?Lewa: Well, if I have to. I guess I need to anyway.*Lewa walks over to the round table where they were all sitting at… well, some of them. Nikila and Rusl were missing. Pohatu was there, however.*Lewa: Pohatu, where were you?! I thought you were going to the desert to help me!Pohatu: Are you kidding? That cannon ride alone would have killed me! Plus didn't you hear what I told you before?Lewa: Well, whatever. Where did the goth girl go? Nuju: I'm sure there's a city in the sky! Why won't anyone believe me?!Lewa: You know, I don't have to talk to you. I'll just read the map.*Lewa looks at the map to find out she's in Ko-Metru.*Lewa: She's in the mountains. Great. Could she be where the mirror piece is?Nuju: What mirror?Lewa: Uh… look, it's Carly Rae Jepsen!Nuju, happy gasp: WHERE?!*Lewa runs away and closes the door behind him.*Nuju, from afar: Wait a minute, she's not here.Lewa: Get me the heck away from here, Midna.Midna: I thought you'd never ask.*Midna warps Lewa away. Lewa didn't specify, but as she wanted to get away as well, so she just took him to Ga-Metru so he could make his way to the mountains.**So from there, Lewa makes his way up the pathway to the cave to the mountains. As he went along, he noticed a few Ga-Matoran looking around all scared and sort of confused. Lewa didn't pay too much attention to them and continued on. Then at the entrance he spotted a figure covered in white fur.*Lewa: It's bigfoot!Midna: What are you talking about? We're in the mountains.Lewa: So then it's the Loch Ness Monster!Midna: You're so misguided and confused.Lewa: Elvis?Midna: Elvis is just a story to scare children. Look, just go over there and talk. It's not even what you think it is.Lewa: Okay, but if I die, stay away from my funeral.Midna: You've got it, Lewa.*Lewa walks up to the white fur figure, who turns around to take off his head! It's Phantom Antroz!! No, wait, it's Nikila in her spirit hood.*Nikila: Oh. Hi, Lewa. How are you doing on this depressing day?Lewa: I'm fine, except for having to fight some giant skeleton thing.Nikila: Do not underestimate the power of the dead.Lewa: You're telling me. Why are you long-staring out into the mountains?Nikila: This is where my boyfriend ran after he went crazy.*Flashback…*Lesovikk, going insane: I didn't kill Karzahni! I didn't kill Karzahni! I didn't kill Karzahni! *Lesovikk jumps into the snow head first and starts to wiggle his legs around as his gasps for breath.*Lesovikk: Oh, hello there, Princess Rosalina. I like you. If I didn't have a girlfriend already, I'd make you my girlfriend!*End flashback.*Lewa: I pity you.Nikila: The mountains have gotten colder recently, a lot like my soul.Lewa: Yeah, the seasons are changing.Nikila: I also saw this beast man walking around. I made this picture of him so I could show it to my art group later, but you can have this copy.Lewa, taking it: I will treasure this with my life.*Later in New Ta-Metru Graveyard…*Lewa: Hey, kid, I'm looking for a recycle bin so I can stash-trash this drawing some goth girl gave me.Prince Khilro: Oh, hello, Lewa. I was just here visiting the grave site of my mother and father. Lewa: Okay. So can you take this piece of paper? You can still use it for something.Prince Khilro: Hey, isn't that the beast man of the mountains?Lewa: You've heard of this? It appears to be so.Prince Khilro: And is that a red fish he's holding?Lewa: Yes, it appears to be red. Prince Khilro: You can only catch that fish with a rare piece of coral, like the one I wear as an earring. Here, take a look at it. Careful, my mother gave that to me.Lewa: All right.Prince Khilro: Can I have my coral earring back now?Lewa: What coral earring?[awkward pause]Prince Khilro: That's low.Lewa: I need to save the world!Prince Khilro: Oh. In that case, I'll let you have it.*Lewa exited the grave yard, only to meet a familiar golden wolf who tries to bite off his head. Lewa is teleported to the same place again and meets the Hero's Shade.*Hero's Shade: So we meet again.Lewa: We've met a bunch of times.Hero's Shade: Yes. Now then, first let's review the Mortal Draw.*The Hero's Shade approaches Lewa and Lewa draws his weapon, slashing him.*Hero's Shade: Very well. Now, let the jump strike be hewn into your mind!Lewa: So how does this one work?Hero's Shade: The jump strike is good for many enemies in a surrounding area. To do it, you must focus your energy as always into your blade. The surge you release at the right quick-timing can hit all the enemies around you as you jump.Lewa: So like this? *Lewa focuses his energy into the sword, and as it lets out a glint, Lewa jumps into the air and strikes the ground, knocking back the ancient warrior.*Hero's Shade: Excellent. The sixth hidden move, the jump strike, has been learned.*So, sometime later after Lewa was teleported back to Metru Nui, Lewa decided to go fishing for that red fish. Once he got it, Midna suggested getting the scent of it so he could follow it. After all, if the beast man took these fish all the time, it was likely he would leave a scent trail. Doing so, Lewa became a wolf again and went up the mountains. Eventually, he sees the beast man and turns back to his Toa self to go and talk to him.*Yeto: Oh. Hello there. What you doing up here?Lewa: Apparently you've been terrorizing people.Yeto: How you find me? You follow scent of fish?Lewa: Sort of…Yeto: I use fish to make soup for wife. She got sick after finding piece of mirror. You follow me?Lewa: Well, I guess so.*Yeto hits the tree next to him and a large piece of ice falls down. Yeto gets on and uses it as a snowboard.*Midna: Lewa, don't let him get away. If he's talking about the mirror piece we're looking for, we can't lose him.*Lewa hits the tree and gets a similar piece of ice and he follows Yeto through the mountains while showing off his mad snowboarding skills. Eventually, he makes it to the destination, which was a very large house…*Midna: Here? What's with this guy? He's got a nice place… for a beast man. I wonder who lived here before.*1,000,000,000,000 years earlier…*Ghirahim: My mansion is a monument to my fabulousness! I hope that it doesn't get taken over by some beast man, for it'd be a crime against fabulosity! I shall hide out here until I can revive my master!*Now…*Midna: Well, that explains one thing… yet raises so many other questions.Lewa: No, it doesn't. Let's go.Midna: Are you sure the mirror shard is here?Lewa: They said the mountains, and this is the only other place here.Midna: Fine, but I just hope you're right.*Lewa goes up the stairs and through the foyer where he meets Yeto's wife.*Lewa: Oh, look, a big pillow.Yeta: Oh, you must be who husband was talking about. You want mirror, yes?Lewa: Yeah, that's why I'm here.*Yeta then gives him a map of the house.*Yeta: Here, you take this. I mark where key is.Lewa: Key to what?Yeta: Mirror in bedroom.Lewa: Oh. Okay. And you're sure this is where the key is?Yeta: Yes. I think.Lewa: Better than nothing.*Turns out Lewa actually went to the kitchen, where he meets with Yeto and Ooccoo.*Lewa: Why do I keep meeting you?Ooccoo: Well, you left me in the Arbiter's Grounds and in the Lakebed Temple.Lewa: Okay, sorry I asked. Did you need me to save you?Ooccoo: Yes! I can't get out of jars by myself.Lewa: Fine…*Lewa takes Ooccoo again, although not as annoyed as before.*Yeto: Me making soup. You want any?Lewa: No, not now.*Lewa goes in the right direction, meets some skelly things made of ice, and makes it to the location marked on the map.*Lewa: Okay, time to get this key and…*Lewa opens the chest and gets the pumpkin in return.*Lewa: This isn't a key. It's a pumpkin.Midna: She got the wrong location. Let's go knock some sense into her.Lewa: You don't have to tell me.*Later on.*Lewa: Hey, Yeto, I sought-found this pumpkin and I don't want it.Yeto: You got pumpkin? You give to me!*Yeto knocks down Lewa and takes the pumpkin from him.*Lewa: What is wrong with you?!Yeto: I add it to soup and now it taste better. You try?Lewa: No! I'm going to talk to your wife.*The next room.*Lewa: Why was there a pumpkin and not a key?!Yeta: Oh. Pumpkin. Check this room here.Lewa: I've got a bad feeling about this…
  11. Here is chapter 17, where we hit a rather key plot point of the story. I also have some more fun writing with Zant's character. Of all the characters in this series, him and the other 1 1/2 villains are the ones I have the most fun writing about. Yeah, that's right, this story has 2 1/2 villains. More on that later when we get to it. *The four ghosts in the Arbiter's Grounds appeared out of nowhere, it seemed. They were only four floating lanterns at first, but then with those lanterns they stole the four flames keeping the door to the boss chamber open and then showed themselves. As they did so, the door sealed shut and the four ghosts fled in different directions.*Lewa: Well, that's just cheer-happy. Midna: Stop your whining, Lewa.Lewa: But really? I've got to go find those four ghouls and open the door?*No sooner that he said that do the ghosts show up once more and start circling around him in a surprise attack.*Lewa: What the--?*Lewa quickly had Midna change him into the wolf and he attacked them one by one. As each one fell, a single flame returned each time to the door, thus opening it once again.*Lewa: I'm surprised they all decided to attack me all at once. Midna: I guess they were just stupid, was all. Well, now that we can progress through this place, let's go on through that door.*As Lewa enters, he sees that there's just a dead end… or was it? There was also a noticeable opening in the floor in the shape of a gear.*Midna: Oh, that's just great. So how do we get through this place now?Lewa: Well, since I've saved enough time taking on all those ghosts at once, I can freely explore this place and find a way to get through.Midna: Yeah… I'd imagine if they hadn't ganged up on you, this place would take twice as long to finish.*Lewa makes his way into a lone chamber of nothing but a sword with many ropes and scrolls tying it down.*Lewa: I could use a sword like that. Midna: It's black and red and looks creepy.Lewa: Let's see what this does. *He cuts one of the ropes with his own sword.*Midna: What are you doing?! Lewa: I wanted to see what that'd do.Midna: I'm more than sure those were all there for a reason.Lewa: It's just one.Midna: One too many! Look.*After Lewa cut one of the ropes, the sword began to glow red and then it started to swing on its own once it unsheathed itself from the ground. That's when the sword's owner appeared, looking like some sort of demonic swordsman.*Lewa: Okay, well… Here goes nothing.*Lewa managed to shield attack him and then perform a backslice on him, defeating him and making him dissipate into black dust.*Lewa: Wow… what a wimp. Here I thought I was in trouble.*Lewa goes over to see the treasure he was guarding, and from it he got a geared spinner.*Lewa: Sweet! I've always wanted one of these!*Lewa hops on it and begins to travel across the floor.*Lewa: Even when I'm not moving, it still goes!Midna: Okay, enough of the games, Lewa, we really need to go take on that boss now.Lewa, sighs: All right.*Lewa goes back to the previously-though dead end and uses the spinner on the gear-shaped opening, turning it within the notch until the wall pulls away and reveals a winding spinner track to the boss room. Lewa uses the spinner to get across the sand traps and go up the track to the boss chamber. There, he sees nothing but sand and a skeleton that looked like it belonged to some enormous beast.*Lewa: All right, the boss is already dead! So what now?*Those thoughts were cut short by the sound of Zant's helium-induced laughter. Zant himself then appeared on top of the skull of the deceased monster.*Lewa: Lord Helmet…Zant: That's right, Hero. I am here once again to meddle in your affairs!Lewa: I'm, so going to kill you for what you've caused in the past.Zant: Oh, dear, I'm so scared, I'm trembling in my helmet.Lewa: Stop with the sarcasm and let's skip to the part where I beat-smack you with your own arm.Zant: Hmm… that simply won't do. How can we be friends if you threaten me like that?Lewa: I never planned on being your friend. Plus you tried to kill Midna.Zant: Really?Lewa: Yeah, you're thinking of Nokama.Zant: Well, then, no matter, because you see in the end I am the one who will win.Lewa: How can you--?Zant: Shut up, I have ultimate power now! I'm going to deal with you in a manner so bizarre and so frightening, you will beg for mercy and wish for death.Lewa: That makes no sense.Zant: Shut up! I have a big chair! *Zant holds up his arms, revealing his hands from his sleeves for the first time. He then begins to focus some dark energy and he creates a sword.*Lewa: Is that Megatron's Sword?Zant: Yes, hero? I see you recognize it.Lewa: How do you have that?* Zant struck the skull with the sword.*Lewa: What did that do?Zant: Ta-ta, hero. When you're gone, the pieces of my heart won't be missing you.Lewa: Was that supposed to be some Avril Lavigne reference?Zant: Shut up! I have a big chair! *Zant disappears from the chamber and from there, the skeleton literally roars back to life. Lewa was now face to face with the Twilit fossil Stallord, who was sending waves of undead minions to attack him. Lewa had the spinner, however, and was able to plow through them and attack Stallord's spine, which was the key to his defeat. After he did this a few more times, Stallord fell apart and his body was destroyed. His head fell into the sand.*Lewa: That was too easy. Now where's that mirror?*Lewa was interrupted again when the platform began to rise. As it did so, the skull of Stallord came back at him again, still animated by the sword Zant stole from Megatron and struck into the skull. The skull knocked Lewa off the platform. As he fell, he noticed spinner tracks on the chamber walls and the pillar on which the platform was. When he stopped himself from falling, he used the spinner once again to give chase to the freakish skull, going from track to track until he built up enough momentum to spin right into the skull. After doing this a few more times, the skull of Stallord was destroyed and the sword skimmed through the air, landing into the platform where it proceeded to break. You know, maybe this was one of the cheap energon knock-offs made by the Autobots. A bridge extended from the other side over to where Lewa was. There, adjacent to where the bridge was, stood a door that proceeded to open.*Lewa: Okay, now it's over, I'm sure of it. Well, I guess it's good to know the mirror is on the other side of that door.Midna: Yeah, that's good, Lewa. Now we can finish off this mess and defeat Lord Helmet.Lewa: Why is he so bizarre?Midna: I'm not even sure of it myself. After going to space camp, he just got worse.*Lewa proceed through the door and found a statue with a spinner track and a large bell. Lewa used the clawshot to ring the bell first. By doing so, the statue began to rise from the sand to reveal it was larger than expected. With it, there were also signs of a stone slab. Lewa used the spinner to get to the top of the statue where he found a familiar gear-shaped notch. Using the spinner once more, he spun the gear and the stone slab with the mirror rose from out of the sand. The statue itself lowered back into the sand as the slab and mirror became more and more visible.*Lewa: This doesn't look like a mirror.Midna: That's a stone, Lewa. This is…*To her dismay, Midna looks to see that the mirror was partially destroyed.*Midna: The Mirror of Twilight is broken?! I'll kill that Lord Helmet!Lewa: Well, there go my plans for the weekend. Maybe those ghost-floating guys can help us.Fire Sage: We are the sages… sort of. Lewa, chosen hero by the goddesses, you are here to see the Mirror of Twilight.Lewa: Thanks for the recap, but we all know why I'm here. Why are you here?Shadow Sage: We are the guardians of the mirror to make sure the balance between this world and the Zone Where Normal Things Don't Happen Very Often remain in check.Light Sage: We are here to tell you about why the mirror was shattered.Lewa: Well, let me just say you're doing a lousy job.Forest Sage: What gives you the right to insult us?Lewa: The fact the mirror is split-shattered. The fact Zant is prance-running around. The fact you're so all-powerful and yet you do nothing and expect me to do everything for you and make it right again.Midna: What were you doing while this was all happening?Fire Sage: We all went out to get smoothies. We were on a break.Midna: A break? Smoothies? You know… Lewa's right. You guys are terrible at doing your job! A squirrel can guard this better than you can!Lewa: What excuse do you have to take a smoothie break?Light Sage: It was very dry out here.Lewa: Boo-hoo, I had to go through a forest, a volcano, and underwater and you didn't hear me whine-cry.Midna: Well…Lewa: I'm trying to make a point here! Are you at least going to own up and take responsibility?Shadow Sage: Nope. We're going to rely on you to do all that.Lewa: You're so lazy! If it was split-shattered, then why wasn't it destroyed completely?Midna: Because only the true leader of the Twili can destroy it, Lewa.Lewa: So then I take it the mirror was split-shattered into three pieces…Lewa and Midna, both annoyed: And scattered into three other temples.Lewa, annoyed: I figured that much. Spirit Sage: Well, looks like someone seems to know all about the mirror now.Forest Sage: We're going to tell you a little story now about the mirror and how everything fell apart.*Flashback…*Fire Sage, voice-over: One upon a time, there was a boy and his horse. He loved that horse. They also had a friend named Mr. Wall of Fire. They were very good friends. The boy's name was Antroz. However, Antroz was a naughty boy and he roamed the land with the other members of the Brotherhood of Makuta doing evil things.Antroz, laughing: I'm so evil, I love it!*As he rides Nexus in an epic pose, Mr. Fiery Wall of Fire appears behind him.*Antroz: And this time, the fire works for me now! No more getting burned! Take that!Spirit Sage, voice-over: So it was up to us, the ones everyone calls "the sages," to execute him. Without any hesitation, Antroz was chained to a stone slab with his arms out and we were had to stab him in the chest, and that is exactly what happened. However, we accidentally used the pretend sword instead of the real one to kill him, so he didn't die. Antroz got angry. *The Triforce of Power glows on Antroz's hand and he stirs to life, angry and ready for revenge. He eyes over at the Water Sage, who was the one who tried to impale him.*Shadow Sage, voice-over: Then he showed us his glow in the dark tattoo on his hand and then he broke our rubber chains. Then he rushed out and killed one of us. We stood there cowering before his might. We had no choice but to send him to The Zone Where Normal Things Don't Happen Very Often, flushing him down so he'd never be heard from again.*End Flashback…**The Sages look over to the lone pillar which bore the mark of the Water Sage. Each of the six pillars had the mark of the respective sages, but this one was the only one that had no one linked to it.*Forest Sage: We believe it is from Antroz or possibly some other force that Zant got his power from.Lewa: And yet you did nothing…Midna: And you sent him into the Twilight Realm?! Man, I was wrong, you're not just terrible, you're horrible and lousy and you don't deserve to do anything with your lives!Lewa: Can you at least tell us where they are?Fire Sage: Okay, fine, just stop making us feel bad about ourselves. :(Spirit Sage: One is in a snowy mountain.Shadow Sage: One is in a sacred grove.Forest Sage: One is in the clouds.Light Sage: And you've already gotten this one.Lewa: Can we have specifics?Fire Sage: What are we, a map? Go figure it out yourselves.Midna: Well… the only place we know with a map is Gali's bar…Lewa: Argh.Sages: Good-bye, heroes.Lewa: Yeah, good-bye you good-for-nothing lousy excuses for sages. ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Okay, before someone starts to wonder what's wrong with the scene of Antroz's execution in reference to the teaser I originally posted, well this scene went through some changes. The one in the chapter is what was written first. The one in the teaser was an alternate version I thought of later, and I wanted to use it. However, it wasn't fully possible to put them both together. At least, in a way I thought would make sense. So I gave the alternate one as a teaser. I like the alternate one better, to be honest. But this one was kept for the sake of plot progression and for explaining the backstory behind Antroz. As a treat, though, I'm going to include the teaser right here. So if you like that scene better like I do, here it is to read it with the actual story. In the land of Metru Nui, there are whispers of many great legends. There are echos of a legend of a great hero who triumphed over evil and saved the land through his courage, stupidity, and sheer luck. The hero departed on a great voyage to search for a valuable friend, believing that evil to have been vanquished. He was wrong...*Antroz is then seen riding his horse Nexus through a flaming forest.*Antroz, screaming: Oh, Mata Nui, I'm on fire! I'm burning here! Why doesn't anyone help me?! AAAHH! Help me, I'm literally burning alive here! Please, I beg of you, help me! Someone please help me! Stop showing this flashback! It's very painful to me!Upon returning to his own time, the young hero had the wicked burned man in black armor imprisoned before his rise to power in the land he abandoned, but was refused the opportunity to properly vanquish him. The wicked man was held trail for his heinous crimes and desires...*Somewhere in the Po-Metru desert, the ones called "the Sages" were summoned to execute him. Unlike the sages of the timeline Lewa left behind, these Sages were only mere shadows of the ones who had yet to be awakened. All of them male and possessing a ghost-like configuration.**Antroz, after being found guilty, was led into the chamber where the Mirror of Twilight was held. These Sages, however, were lazy and not very bright. Antroz went along with the execution, but he would soon strike when the time was right. He allowed himself to be chained up to a rock slab with the Sages' rubber chains. He looked at them with fire in his eyes and the hatred of an ancient evil burning in his heart.*Water Sage, brandishing sword: It's time for you to pay for your crimes, Antroz.Antroz: Do we really need to have it be this way? Can't we all go out for a smoothie and talk it over?Light Sage: While we do like smoothies, we can't do that. We're supposed to stab you in the chest.Fire Sage: And then we're going to sell all your stuff to whoever wants it.Antroz: Hmm… this simply won't do.Forest Sage: Quit your stalling and let's get this over with.*The Water Sage takes the sword and with one heavy, yet swift, motion, he impales Antroz with the sacred blade.*Shadow Sage: All right, well the deed is done. Now we can go out for smoothies.Spirit Sage: Well said.*Sadly for them, they didn't realize how they didn't use the real sword to execute him. No… they only used the pretend sword to do the job. Antroz did not die, but he did get hurt in the chest. He slowly began to stir as the Triforce of Power glowed in his hand, granting him strength to try and break out. The sages realized too late what was going on.*Antroz: You're going to pay dearly for that, foolish sages!*Antroz breaks the rubber chains that held him to the stone slab and then he rushes out with a fist in front of him and he kills the Water Sage. The surviving sages could only cower in fear at the atrocity.*Light Sage: Did he just… do a Falcon punch to kill him?!Shadow Sage: It's Super Smash Bros. Melee all over again!Forest Sage: What do we do?! We're too lazy to handle this guy all on our own!*That's when they thought about where they were… the Mirror of Twilight! Without hesitation or thought, the Fire Sage activated the mirror. Antroz took the sword used to kill him, powered it up to suit his needs, and he made his way for the Sages. However, he didn't notice the Mirror of Twilight behind him. The mirror activated and opened a portal to the Twilight Realm. It then activated a vacuum and started to pull Antroz in. He tried his best to resist, but in the end the force was too much for him and he was banished into the Twilight Realm to be imprisoned for the rest of his days… at least for now, it seemed.**The Sages all looked over to where their fallen comrade once stood. After that, they all decided to go out for smoothies.*
  12. I'm ashamed to say...I used a guide for that . So do I. F-A-B, F-A-B...Oh, and is the cat a Glatorian Oc as well?Good chappy.~MN~ I just had to sit there for about 10 minutes. I died once, but I eventually got it after the second try. Don't worry, I needed a guide for that annoying slide puzzle in Skyward Sword's Sky Keep temple. Slide Puzzles are a bane of my existence. Well, technically, that part is a reference to both DOT as well as the old ShadowBionics. You'll see what I mean... in chapter 24. Or if you read DOT. But I do like that remix of Saria's song that plays in that part. That's the only thing I do like from that segment. I'd rather not go through the Skull Kid and his demonic puppets again anytime soon. No. The Runia wildcat is a rejected Rahi idea I had along with the Klang bird. Although the latter did get a MOC and a few mentions in other comedies Here is chapter 16. It was around here when I really started to make the chapters longer because I didn't want the story to go on for 40+ chapters and I felt like there needed to be more story in them. *With the Master Sword in hand, Lewa and Midna were making their way through the field, when Lewa was suddenly met with a familiar enemy.*The Postman: HEEEEEEEEEEY!!!!Lewa: How does he find me?!The Postman: Hey, Mr. Lewa, how have you been enjoying my letters?Lewa: I haven't, now get away from me!The Postman: Here is your letter. Well, now I am off again.*As The Postman runs away, Lewa does as well, but in the opposite direction. He is cut off once more however when he encounters a familiar gold wolf that tries to bite off his head. And once again, Lewa is transported to the scary place to meet the scary skeleton man.*Hero's Shade: So, we meet again.Lewa: Hey… I don't know your name.Hero's Shade: You actually do. It is as clear as your name.Lewa: Okay…Hero's Shade: First, let us review the Back Slice.*Lewa focuses on the Hero's Shade, jumps to the side, rolls, and attacks him.*Lewa: That good enough?Hero's Shade: Yes. Now, on to the next skill, the Helm Splitter. Let it be hewn into your mind.Lewa: How does it work?Hero's Shade: If you're fighting against heavy-armor foes, the back slice won't do anything. So first you must stagger them with a shield attack. Then, quick-leap into the air to split into their helms.Lewa: So something like this?*Lewa delivers a shield attack, staggering the old spirit, and then he leaps into the air and slashing his mask with the Master Sword.*Hero's Shade: Good… and I see you've gotten your hands on a new sword.Lewa: Yup.Hero's Shade: I take it you didn't become king of anything after you pulled it out, did you?Lewa: No… why? Should I have??Hero's Shade: No, it's just that when I-- Oh, never mind. The Helm Splitter has been learned, now go until we meet again.Lewa: Got'cha skeleton guy.*Lewa is transported back to the field and he makes his way to Gali's bar. After all, he wanted to give her a piece of his mind for throwing him out of the bar last night.*Lewa: How could you toss-throw me out of your bar?!Gali: I don't know what you are talking about. I never did such a thing.Lewa: Don't play innocent with me! Gali: While you're here, there's someone I want you to meet. *She signals over to the "Dorks of the Round Table," as Lewa referred to them previously.*Lewa: Do I have to meet them?Gali: Yes. Yes, you do. Also, when you're done, I recommend you speak to a man by the name of Pohatu. He might be able to help you out on your journey. *Lewa grudgingly walks over to them. As he does so, he notices a guy wearing a helmet (no, it's not Zant/Lord Helmet) who looks familiar.*Lewa: Hey, creep-face.Rusl: How did you recognize me? I was wearing a helmet!Lewa: Trust me. I know from experience helmets aren't that cool. Why are you here?Rusl: I wanted to join the rebellion!Lewa: So this is the Rebel Alliance?Rusl: Not exactly. We aren't rebelling against anyone. But we thought it sounded cool.Lewa: Whatever.*He then goes over to a nerdy-looking guy studying a book.*Nuju: Oh. Hello there. I'm Nuju.Lewa: You don't get out much, do you?Nuju, sad: No… I've spent most of my days looking through my telescope and reading these books. I've gotten very far in my research. I've just discovered there was once a city in the sky! Not only that, but people lived up there! I also learned there might still be inhabitants to this very day.Lewa: City in the sky, huh? Sounds interesting. Let me know how that goes for you.*After talking to Nuju, Lewa goes over to the last adventurer at the table who seemed to have something on her mind.*Lewa: And you are…?Nikila: I'm Nikila. I grew up in the mountains.Lewa: Interesting…Nikila: I had a crazy boyfriend who went insane who looked kinda like you.Lewa: Um… okay. If you need me, I'll be far away from you.Nikila: I'm doing some research on the Snowpeak mountains in Ko-Metru.Lewa: That's really nice. I'll be going now.Midna: Take you to Ga-Metru to find this Pohatu guy?Lewa: I thought you'd never ask.*After getting out of that place and away from the "Dorks of the Round Table," Midna warped Lewa to Ga-Metru where Pohatu was supposed to be. After walking around, Lewa spotted him on a very tall pillar. Climbing up, the Toa of air made his way to talk to the veteran Toa of stone.*Pohatu: Ah, I had a feeling I'd be seeing you very soon.Lewa: Gali?Pohatu: Yes. Lewa: What are you doing up here?Pohatu: I'm just looking out into Po-Metru. It's a very big desert out there, you know?Lewa: So I've heard.Pohatu: There's a lot of things out there, just lost in the sands of time. There's lot of rumors of some object of great power out there, too.Lewa: When isn't it about some object of great power?Pohatu: Yeah, but this time, it's different. I take it you want to get out there, don't you?Lewa: Something tells me I'm going to have to anyway.Pohatu: In that case, take this note with you. Show it to that scary clown guy who runs the cannon place.Lewa: What will that do?Pohatu: It's just a quick and easy way to get to the desert. Plus he owes me some favors. The way over there is blocked by boulders, too.Lewa: Can't I just climb over them?Pohatu: No! You have to go by cannon.Lewa: Well, all right. I guess I can't fly over there, either.*So Lewa makes his way back down and talks to Fyer the scary clown guy. Well, one of them, since you have the other one.*Fyer: So what'll it be there, guy?Lewa: HERE.*Lewa hands over the note to Fyer, who proceeds to read it.*Fyer: So looks like Pohatu wants me to do this for him… well, that's one less favor I owe him, then. All right, guy, step into the cannon. You know the drill by now. This is a secret option not available to the public.Lewa: This better not dent-scratch my armor.*Lewa steps into the cannon and Fyer gets his peddling-bike ready.*Fyer: One Oasis flight, coming right at ya. *Fyer starts a-peddling and the scary circus music starts up again. The cannon rose from the roof of the shack and it rotates around, only this time in the direction of the desert. In a few short moments, Lewa was shot out of the cannon once more and sent soaring into the desert.*Lewa: There's got to be an easier way to get here. This place is so vast-huge… I guess I'd better go.Midna: Wait, Lewa…*Midna shyly looks away as Lewa faces her.*Lewa: What is it?Midna: Before you go, there's something I want you to hear. You remember all that stuff Lanayru said about the fused shadows?Lewa: Kind of. All that didn't make a load of sense to me.Midna: What do you think happened to the magic users who sought the divine power?Lewa: I didn't think about that… What happened to them?Midna: They were banished. Chased around by angry mobs all across Metru Nui until they were banished to the Twilight Realm.*Flashback…**Antroz is seen riding through the forest on fire…*Antroz: Can we please stop showing this flashback?! It's getting really annoying and painful!!*Another Flashback…**Crowds with torches and pitchforks are seen chasing the dark interlopers into the desert.*Dark Lewa 1: Man, I hate this! I hate all of you angry mob people!Dark Lewa 2: Yeah! I mean we only wanted the triangles!Dark Lewa 3: Why you angry mob people always got to spoil the fun?*End Flashback.*Midna: Yes, so you see…It was another world entirely. It was the antithesis of Metru Nui, there the sun shines bright. It denizens became shadows that could not mingle with light.Lewa: Oh, so that's how Zant almost killed you.Midna: Yes, now be quiet. Don't interrupt me. Eventually, most came to call it the Twilight Realm, and from it, none could return to the world of light. Others called it The Zone Where Normal Things Don't Happen Very Often, due to the bizarre nature of the realm. They were forever doomed to live in the twilight, just mere half-shadows in the dusk of Metru Nui. This is the history of the Twili as it has been passed down from our ancestors. Do you now understand what I am?Lewa: Um… I think I do, but I'm nervous to say it.Midna, somewhat angered: I'm a descendant of the tribe that was banished to the Twilight Realm!*Another Flashback, this time we look into the Twilight Realm…*Midna, voice-over: It was a peaceful place until Zant returned from space camp and became addicted to helium and started to wear that stupid helmet of his. He started turning Twili into his army of Shadow Beasts and unleashing a dark reign of terror and stupidity.*Zant is seen walking in front of his new army of Shadow Beasts, wearing his signature helmet and heading for the throne room.*Zant, laughing: I'll catch you yet, my pretties. Yes, as soon as one of you is in my reach, you're gone to be mine! All mine!! *maniacal laughter.*Midna, voice-over: It's clear to me now that he somehow gained a great evil power previously unknown to our tribe. In any case, I was sent from there and could no longer get into the Twilight Realm without his power. But that's another tale told by my people.*end flashback…*Midna: Although the goddesses forbade us to return to the world of light, they left one link between the light and darkness. Something called the Mirror of Twilight was passed to the protectors of Metru Nui. It's our only path to the Twilight Realm, and we must get there!Lewa: All right. So then it's somewhere around here?Midna: Yeah. You'll come with me, won't you?Lewa: Yeah, of course I will.*With that, Midna returns to his shadow as Lewa stumbles around the desert until he finds a large slab… which turns out to be part of the Bridge of Eldin!*Lewa: Hey, Midna, I think I've seen this somewhere.Midna: That's part of the bridge from earlier.Lewa: Really? Then let's go send it back to where it goes.*Taking Lewa's advice, Midna warps the piece of the bridge back over to the Bridge of Eldin, slowly placing it back to where it once was and making the structure complete once more. It just locks into place, no need to attach it back into place or anything.**Keeping that in mind, Lewa and Midna keep going through the desert and even taking down a Bulblin camp to get into the Arbiter's Grounds, passing through an old abandoned fortress that once belonged to some Vortixx thieves. It was in this fortress that he met with a familiar golden wolf who was linked to a familiar spirit who actually had a bit of history with this fortress. The wolf tried to bit off Lewa's head yet again, and Lewa was teleported back to that eerie realm to meet the Hero's Shade once more.*Hero's Shade: We meet again. Lewa: Didn't we already meet?Hero's Shade: Yes, but I pick up you are getting lazy. I'm going to make up for lost time. At last, the skills I have to teach have entered true secrecy, for they've been long forgotten by all except those in our bloodline. You ready?Lewa: You bet I am.Hero's Shade: Very well. First, let's review the previous hidden skill, the Helm Splitter.Lewa: The one I just learned like 2 hours ago?Hero's Shade: Yes. Don't tell me you've already forgotten, little one.Lewa: Oh, I haven't forgotten anything.*Lewa attacks him with his shield, and then jumps in the air and performs the helm splitter.*Hero's Shade: Excellent. So you have been paying attention after all. All right, now I shall teach you the next hidden skill, the Mortal Draw! Let it be hewn into your mind.Lewa: How does this one go?Hero's Shade: The ways of the sword are known by many, but few are truly able to master it. For me, it took me a lot of trek-questing through temples and fighting Antroz and the Night Nurse mask. The mortal draw is one of those skills few can master. You must sheathe your sword and cast aside the most basic of sword skills. You must wait until your foe is upon you. Then before your enemy can see through your fool-ruse, you must quickly draw your blade.Lewa: Couldn't that kill me?Hero's Shade: That's why only few can master it. Otherwise anyone else is too afraid to even try it. But I am sure you can do so just fine.*While the Hero's Shade is talking, Lewa drew out his sword, swiping it against his armor.*Lewa: That good?Hero's Shade: That was good, I wouldn't have done it better myself. The next hidden skill, the Mortal Draw, has been passed down. Take sword and hand and we shall meet again.*Lewa is teleported back, this time though in front the entrance of the Arbiter's Grounds. At first, Lewa thought it'd be an easy walk through, but he was met by a familiar face instead...*King Bulblin, swinging axe: I'm gonna kill you!Lewa: What'd I do?!King Bulblin: You don't remember?*Lewa remembers back to the epic showdown on the bridge with King Bulblin who fell to his doom... something that have obviously killed him but didn't. Instead, he was missing one of his horns, that's all.*Lewa: How are you still alive and kick-walking?King Bulblin: That's not important, but what is important is that I won't let you in!*Wasting no time, Lewa took advantage of how slow he was and beat him rather easily. I guess having a giant axe isn't too helpful at all. If anything, I think it took him longer to wave that thing around that it did for Lewa to swing his sword.*King Bulblin: All right, all right. You can get through. Was it necessary for you to beat me again?Lewa: Yeah, you wouldn't have let me pass otherwise, Mr. "I'm gonna kill you!"*Lewa this time for real did go into the Arbiter's Grounds after King Bulblin surrendered. Eventually, after making it past a punch of quicksand traps at the entrance and using his clawshot to go to and fro, he eventually made it inside to the Arbiters grounds, where he met face to face with four ghosts.*
  13. Sorry I haven't posted in this for a long time. I've had a lot of things arrive to my attention and I couldn't afford to really be writing any new chapters of anything when I had to be writing three important papers. To make up for it, this one is going to be a longer chapter than usual. It's also going to have a few key plot points that are going to be important later. as a bonus, I figured since people wanted me to introduce my OC characters a little better, how about I show two of the more prominent ones so far. That, and the only ones I have MOC's of. Makuta "Hodge Podge" Algorox-Almaine Makuta Algorox-Almaine (Pre-mutation) Shadow Toa Elitha Matoran Elitha Elitha with Teridax So starting with Hodge Podge, he was originally a Makuta who worked for Teridax. Initially cold and calculating, he was usually off to the side doing his own thing. Funny enough, he had a crush on Gorast secretly. He created a vicious bird rahi named Klang and he lives on an island inhabited by them. On a mission, Icarax was being clumsy and threw him into some mutagenic acid, which ruined him greatly. Icarax later claimed "I said I was sorry!!" Teridax then took it on himself to let Mutran fix him up. Sadly, because Mutran is a terrible scientist, he instead turned Algorox into a mutant freak instead of fully restoring him to his original self. Angered and appalled at his new form, Algorox went on a rampage and left Destral, vowing revenge on the Brotherhood, especially Mutran, Icarax, and Teridax. He abandoned his name and picked up the alias "Hodge Podge." As part of an experiment, he took the "good" part of his DNA and made a genetic twin a la Jango Fett. He named his "son" Ailles and disguised him as a Matoran, who appeared in 2006 in my first comedy "The Mask" as a hard boiled cop. He later appeared in "Ask Roodaka" and the original ADITLOT, reprising his role as a cop, albeit more insane as a side effect of not being able to handle Hodge Podge's initially brilliant mind. Hodge Podge reunited with Ailles at the end of Ask Roodaka. Elitha was a very shy and timid Av-Matoran who lived on an unspecified island after the great time slip. Teridax took her under his wing for various reasons, one of which was to create a mask that would never exist: a polar opposite to the Mask of Life. Despite how impossible it was, she did it after suffering under Teridax long enough. While weaker than the Ignika, the mask could do mostly everything it could do, but at a lesser level and at random chance. Elitha struck back at the Brotherhood, but not before they struck at her afterwards. Using the mask she made to recover, she became a Shadow Toa, ironically modeled after Teridax. Her powers can rival a Makuta's and she is dangerous especially because she wears the Mask of Death. However, she's not used to her powers and there's only a 1% chance something like "instant death" would work. Having been under Teridax's oppression, she went insane and more aggressive. In her previous life, she was friends with Takua and Solek and she was described as being very shy, yet very warm and caring. Elitha first appeared in my comedy "The Moron's Mask" as one of the main antagonists and has since appeared in more of my works. Useless trivia: You could say her Shadow Toa personality is like that of an evil version of a singer whose music I like. So, if you're not bored of reading all these explanations yet, here's the actual chapter. Episode 3: Guess What's Coming to Dinner *Somewhere on Destral…* Teridax: Did those servants of ours ever return? Atheron: You know… I’m not even sure. Teridax: Blast it! I knew we should have kept better tabs on them. Atheron: Yeah, that probably would have helped. Teridax: Gyzerox! Zartross! I want you to find those clowns on the double! Gyzerox+Zartross: Yes! Atheron: Wait, why are you so worried about them all of a sudden? Teridax: It’s more so the principle. Besides, I can’t have anyone else bailing out on me again. Not since we’re all of a sudden missing so many of our operatives from the old days. Atheron: True. There’s only one who we have an idea of what happened. Teridax: Ugh, don’t mention him to me. He can stay lost for all I care. It’s so much more peaceful around here. I mean, no more blabbering about some singer, no more stupid antics, no more causing me misery. And do I need to mention how he would always be outside of my door every time I opened it? Atheron: No. But still. Plus he was a fan favorite back in the day. Teridax: Well, it matters not. In the mean time, why don’t I send his subordinate to get me something to eat? Torah? Torah: Yes, Teridax? Teridax: I hunger!! Torah: What would you like? Teridax: I’m in the mood for pizza. Go get me some pizza. Torah: You’ve got it. *With that, Torah leaves to get find a place that sells pizza.* Teridax: Okay. So we got our bounty hunter-type operatives hunting down the deserters and we’ve got the other moron getting my food. Gorast: You know, Teridax, the holidays are coming up soon. Teridax: What? Oh, yeah… we should get to doing something about that. Maybe I’ll have Chirox and Bitil set something up. Come to think of it… did we have do something in the previous years? Gorast: You know, it was very unclear… All: Zartross: Found them, comrade. Gyzerox: Yeah. Turns out they were trying to sneak their way out of our sights. Sidorak: Lies! All lies! Gyzerox: Then explain these plane tickets to anywhere? Sidorak: Um… those aren’t mine? Roodaka: Give it a rest, Sidork. You were always bad at making up lies anyway. Sidorak: Like you could do any better? Roodaka: As a matter of fact, I could. Teridax: Silence! Zartross, take Sidorak and Roodaka to the dungeon. Gyzerox: What about the Toa Hagah. Teridax: Hold onto them, I have some questions for them. *Teridax approaches Gyzerox and the Hagah as Zartross carries Sidorak and Roodaka to the dungeon to be locked up.* Teridax: Well, well, well, what do we have here? Norik: I liked you better when you were defeated. Teridax: I liked you better when you sounded like Kagome’s grandpa, but we all have to move on. Now, tell me, do you really think it’s wise to try and run out on me when I have ultimate power and the Brotherhood backing me up. You’re on thin ice. Kualus: Oh, we’re so scared. Bomonga: I’m quaking in fear. Teridax: Enough bad puns. Take them to the dungeon. *Somewhere elsewhere…* Torah: Okay, Teridax wanted me to get... what was it again?*Torah walks down the street to the market when he passes by a randomly placed radio for the sake of being random.*DJ on radio: You're listening to DJ HP on Radio KPodge, where we bring you smashing and crushing great hits. Here is a preview one of my personal favorites, coming up later on.Carly Rae Jepsen: Hey, I just met you. And this is crazy, but here's my number, so call me, maybe?Torah: That song is annoying.Zombified crowd: Must crush Brotherhood of Morons. Must crush Brotherhood of Morons.Torah: Uh... why are you all coming at me with torches and pitchforks? Can't we talk this out? Wait... please! Don't come any closer!*As the crowd begins to clobber the dimwitted Makuta, we see that just above the building where the radio was placed, the DJ himself sits down and looks upon the horrible sight. Who is the DJ?*Hodge Podge, with microphone: All that and more coming up on Radio KPodge. HA HA HA! Torah: OH, MY LEG!!! Hodge Podge, pulls away from microphone: Oh, this is just too delicious! Ha ha ha! I wish I had my camera so I can relive all this! Oh, wait… this is just the beginning! *Back on Destral…* Teridax: How many fools does it take to deliver a pizza! Chirox: Wait, I know this one! Gorast: It isn’t a joke, Chirox. Torah’s been gone for like… ever. Teridax: Exactly. And you know what happens when I don’t get my food on time. Kojol: Haven’t the good citizens of Metru Nui suffered enough? Teridax: Not as much as you have if you don’t be quiet! Kojol: Fine. I’ll go see what Mutran’s up to. *As Kojol sulks away, there’s a knock at the door.* Gorast: I wonder who that is. Teridax: If it’s that crazy Salesman, he can stay at the door. Antroz: I’ll go answer it since you’re all so afraid. *As Antroz go to answer the door, a huge surge of power blasts the door down, crushing Antroz with it.* Elitha: Knock knock. Teridax: Ah, it’s you again. I was hoping I’d see you again. Elitha: Please, don’t flatter yourself, Teridax. Gorast: Why is she here again? Antroz, from under the door: Why do you think? *At Mutran’s Lab…* Kojol: Hey, science school reject. What’re you up to? Mutran: I’ve been working on my prototype weapon from the last show. Kojol: You mean the one that doomed Icarax? Mutran: Bingo. Kojol: Why would you do that? Mutran: It’s not supposed to blast people into alternate dimensions. Kojol: Oh, so that’s what happened to him. Here I thought he was dead or something. Mutran: No. After a careful analysis, I’ve deduced this blaster can send targets to other dimensions. Kojol: So what will this accomplish? Mutran: I don’t know. I’ll have to analyze it on the computer. Kojol, taking bottle: And what is this thing here? Mutran: Be careful with those. I found those on Roodaka’s person. Kojol, reading: “Stupid Pills.” Mutran: I have yet to determine what they do. Kojol: I might have been buried under a burnt building for about 2 years, but even I know my Ask Roodaka trivia. Mutran: I don’t follow. Kojol: Of course you don’t. These are what Roodaka used to either make Sidorak keep quiet or make him even more stupid. The effects are somewhat random and uncertain. Mutran: Oh. Well, that answers that. Kojol: Tell you wait, Dr. Pointy head, I’ll hold onto these for you and you just go back to doing your science guy stuff. Mutran: Okay, see you around. Wait… you know, why don’t you test this? Kojol: You sure? Mutran: Yeah, why not. Just don’t fire it at anyone. Let me know what happens. I’m going to take a nap. Kojol: Okay. *So Kojol takes the experimental blaster and the stupid pills and walks out of Mutran’s lab.* *Back with Teridax…* Chirox: So how do you want us to handle this one? *Before Teridax could answer, Elitha uses her electrified whips to incapacitate him.* Elitha: That answer your question? Teridax: No. Why must you do this? Elitha: Revenge takes no prisoners, Teridax. Teridax, remembers: Oh, yeah… that. Come on, would you rather still be a small little Matoran afraid of her own shadow? Elitha: Better than being some super-powered freak. Bitil: What’s the commotion? Gorast: This… thing is back. Elitha: Look who’s talking. Bitil: Well, in that case… *Bitil rushes at Elitha, engaging in somewhat of a sword fight with her, which he ultimately loses. Kojol walks in just in time to see Bitil get defeated. Looking at what he had in his hands, he decided to play a bit of a prank on their “guest.”* Elitha: I must say, I’m disappointed if this is all you can do against me. Kojol: Then it’s time to eat your words! *Kojol jumped out from his hiding place, hits Elitha on the neck, knocking her down, and giving her one of the stupid pills.* Gorast: Um… what just happened? Bitil: Kojol just became a ninja. Kojol: What? You all have your own motifs, can’t I have my own? Teridax: I’m almost not sure if you should have done that. Kojol: It’s not like she’s going to turn all Crazy Siddy or something on us, right? Teridax: That’s the thing… I don’t know what will happen with her. She was already kind of insane to begin with. Kojol: Oh… I think I get you now… Gorast: Should we be afraid? Teridax: Possibly. On the plus side, I don’t think she’ll try and attack us anymore. She might be like Krika. Krika: Here comes me! *Krika charges headfirst and rams right through the wall.* Kojol: Even then, that’s a scary thought.
  14. All I can say about Zant in this comedy is... you haven't seen anything yet. This is only my second favorite chapter of the whole story. My favorite one shows Zant at his finest. Lewa does put the "Delinquent" in the title of this story.Yeah, sorry about that. I didn't want chapter 13 to be a total waste, so I kind of had to rush it at the end. Plus I thought it'd be funny to have Midna complete a dungeon on her own. Here is chapter 15, and not much I can really say about it. At this moment in real time, however, Twilight Delinquent is one chapter 29, so there's just one more left until it's finished. That also means we're half-way through the story.*As Lewa ran out into the field like a big coward…*Starscream: But sometimes cowards do survive.*No one asked you. Besides, you get beat up by Megatron every generation. Anyways, after he ran out into the field, stuck as a wolf, Lanayru magically teleported Midna on his back.*Lewa: What in Din's name??Lanayru: Hero, seek the one whose fault this is and make her do something about it.Lewa: All right. But what can she do? She just hand-gave Metru Nui to Lord Helmet.Lanayru: Well, she might be a terrible ruler, but she might be able to still help you. Now go to her, Hero.Lewa: Okay.*Lewa raced all the way to the market place, but found that they didn't take too kindly to wolves. In fact, the whole guard was all up in arms to make sure Lewa stayed out. They were so focused on Lewa, that they didn't notice a red-armored yelling burn victim guy sneak in behind the back gate.*Lewa: Now what?Midna: I'm still dying here.Lewa: I know! Gali mentioned some secret passage way!*Lewa ran to her bar and walked right in the front door, which was open slightly ajar.*Gali: Stupid animal, get out of my bar!*Lewa and Midna were tossed back out and the door was locked. There was no way in for him now. Or was there?*Lewa: I won't forget this!Midna: Still dying here.Lewa: I know that, Midna!Runia: Hello there, Lewa.Lewa: Who said that?*He turned around to see it was Gali's pet cat, who until now has done nothing.*Runia: You are much different than I remember.Lewa: Yeah, I'm a dog again. I need to get into the Coliseum.Runia: Yes. And sadly my silly master doesn't seem to understand.*She makes her way and pushes out some boxes.*Runia: Climb up here and don't get caught.Lewa: All right…*Lewa climbs up the boxes and into a window. There, he sees a bunch of ropes around the ceiling. With no other way to get across to the other side, Lewa uses them as tightropes. As he walks, he notices a small group of misfits below, crowded by a round table.*Lewa: Hey, Midna, look. It's the Dorks of the Round table.Midna: Hurry up, I'm still dying.*Eventually, Lewa makes it into the Coliseum undetected and he makes his way over to the room where Nokama was staying in. He walks in the door and Midna collapses onto the floor.*Lewa: Hi, dear. I'm home.Nokama: I can tell by the fact Lewa is a wolf and Midna is dying that Lewa failed horribly in his quest to save Metru Nui.Midna, gasping: We got the fused shadows, but Lord Helmet attacked us. He put some curse on Lewa and then he hurt me…*Nokama approaches Lewa and holds out her hand, the Triforce of Wisdom glowing as her hand nears his head.*Nokama: Looks like it's all in his head.Midna: You mean Lewa is imagining all of this?Nokama: No. What I mean is whatever is making him stuck as a wolf is in his head.Lewa: Your Triforce lets you sense evil?Nokama: Yes. My Triforce can do a lot of things. It can let me sense evil and allow me to think very intelligently and rationally in dire situations, for example.Midna: Is that why Lord Helmet won?Nokama: Be quiet, you're supposed to be dying! Anyways, and like how the Triforce of Power grants its user great strength and dark magic.Lewa: What does mine do?Nokama: Yours makes you better than those coward guards who don't do anything right. But anyways, to fix this curse you must go to the sacred grove to find an ancient weapon that no evil can ever touch.Midna: Wait, before he goes, tell him about… the Mirror of Twilight.Nokama: I don't have to tell him anything, because you're going with him.Midna: Wait, what?? Nokama: I'm going to sacrifice myself so you can live. Midna: No, Lewa, stop her!Lewa, looking out the window: I wonder who the red guy sneak-breaking inside is.Midna: Forget the red guy, he's not important! Hurry before it's…*In a matter of moments, Nokama was gone and only her hooded cloak was left. She became one with The One.*Midna: Lewa… Nokama just sacrificed herself to save me… She didn't have to do anything. She didn't even know me, and yet she gave her own life for mine…To think, all this time I thought you light-dwellers were selfish and stupid, but now I truly see there are those like you and Nokama who are different…Lewa, laughing: The red guy slip-fell down the stairs.Midna: Exactly. Now, we can't let Nokama's sacrifice be in vain. We must go to the sacred grove and get rid of this curse on you!Lewa, sad: All right.*So the duo left the Coliseum, but they were surprised when the moment they left, it became engulfed by some yellow crystal-like barrier. There was truly no way back inside now.*Lewa: Who could have done this?*Somewhere inside the Coliseum…*Antroz: I'm back again, baby! Ha ha ha! And all it took was a bunch of manipulating and some major string-pulling, too!*Lewa and Midna raced back to Le-Metru and made their way through the Faron woods. There, they found themselves lost in a maze-like place where the sound of a flute playing a song by a blond-haired songstress was heard echoing everywhere they went.*Lewa: I like this song.Midna: Stay focused, Lewa. We have to find a way to navigate through here.*Midna's thought was interrupted when out of nowhere, some rusty robot puppet appeared to them, holding a remote and a trumpet. He laughed in a grating, raspy voice and he looked like he was thrown in the trash. He gave a sinister giggle before blowing the trumpet, summoning a bunch of other puppets like himself, except larger and floating. Lewa attacked them and continued to follow the strange little freak through the maze until he was able to defeat his minions. Then, he attacked and defeated the freak. All he did was laugh and run away.*Remote: That was fun… let's meet again sometime.*As he ran through, a passage opened. Victory was within reach. Lewa went through and he made his way into what seemed like the ruins of some old temple.*Lewa: All right, now to go see what's in there.Statue Guards: Not if we have anything to say about it.Lewa: Darn it.Statue: Solve our puzzle and we'll let you through.*So roughly 10 minutes later, Lewa got them on their proper spots, allowing him to progress. It was there, a lone ray of light shone on something glimmering in the distance.*Midna: Well, I guess this is the place.Lewa: What is that over there?Midna: I'm not sure. Let's go and see.*As Lewa neared the object, the pair saw that it was no mere object, but a sword in a pedestal. It was the legendary weapon, the Blade of Evil's Bane. The Master Sword. Getting closer, the sword gave off a pulse of power, throwing Midna back. Lewa, however, held his ground and he got closer still. Then there was a bright flash of light. Midna covered her eyes until the flash went away. She was shocked when she opened her eyes to see Lewa, a Toa once more, pulling the sword from the pedestal. And no, he did not become the king of anything, either.*Midna: The sword… accepted you as its master…Lewa: Surprised?Midna: Well, yeah, actually, I am.*Midna drifts closer over to Lewa, holding the same curse Zant placed on him before.*Lewa: You must think I'm pretty cool, right?Midna: Don't push your luck. *She holds up the dark crystal.* This thing is what Zant put on you to turn you into the wolf. I think we can use this to our advantage, so now you can be the wolf whenever you want.Lewa: All right!Midna: Okay… I'm not even going to ask questions. But anyway, yeah, it's ours now to use. And you know, before… I treated you like an cool dude whipping boy. But now…Lewa: You think I'm better?Midna: No, I still think you're an cool dude. But I guess I shouldn't have been so harsh before. After all, I mean you are helping me defeat Lord Helmet. I have to warn you, though. The Mirror of Twilight won't be an easy place to get to. Will you still help me?Lewa: Of course I will.Midna: Thank you. Well, we should probably get moving. If you don't mind, I think I should resume hiding in your shadow until we defeat Lord Helmet.Lewa: I'm sort of curious about what he's plot-scheming.Midna: It could either be something really devious or something totally stupid, knowing him.Lewa: How long have you known each other?Midna: A long time, actually. You might even say we knew each other since we were younger. Lewa: Was he always a wacky nutjob?Midna: Yes. But he wasn't this bad before. He got worse after going to space camp.Lewa: Space camp?Midna: Yes. See, my father, the king, saw he was getting out of hand, so to teach him a lesson, he was sent to space camp for 1,000 hours. I felt bad for him, especially since he was scared of things like rockets and cannons. Plus the camp was on the moon.Lewa: Wow…Midna: When he came back, he said his Spirit Name was "Lord Helmet," and wanted everyone except for me to call him that. Plus, he went on about how his spirit guide told him to make some life changes… such as wearing that stupid helmet.Lewa: Why do I feel like this "spirit guide" has some connection to me?
  15. Chapter 14, a chapter I was looking forward to writing for a long time. Since the start of the series, I wanted Zant to be this crazy nutjob who obviously shouldn't be out by himself, and this chapter kind of demonstrates that. Be though as it may, this chapter might be kind of thematic in some points, so some caution is advised. *After goofing off for what seemed like a filler chapter, Lewa finally made it to the end of the Lakebed Temple (although it was Midna who completed a majority of it on her own). And now all that was left for him to do was to fight the boss. With his water armor and his iron boots and claw shot, he made is way down to the bottom of the sea floor.*Midna: Stay on your guard, Lewa. This fight could be tough.Lewa: I doubt it. If I learned anything, it's that what might seem innovative and cool will be a huge let down. This boss should be no exception. It might be like some tiny little eel or something.*Lewa gets down there and he sees some weird kind of appendage with an eye at the end. And then other similar ones rose from the ground.*Lewa: Well, this is… interesting…*Clawshotting the eyes a few times, it looked like Lewa triumphed at first, but then a giant eel came out of the ground, letting out an animalistic cry.*Lewa: That's a big eel…Morpheel: Well, I hope no one attacks my eye. That's right there. On my back. With all the arrows pointing at it.*Sure enough, there are big neon arrows and signs that read things like "attack here!" and "over here, stupid!"*Midna: Lewa, stop gazing at the abyss and attack his obvious weakspot!Lewa: All right then. *Lewa swims over to him and clawshots his eye, bringing him closer. Then he starts to slash at his eye repeatedly until Morpheel throws him off.*Morpheel: Oh, no, I'm blind. I can't see. *With that, he crashes into a wall, causing him a painful and terrible death. In doing so, he also begins to drain all the water that was in the chamber.*Lewa: Okay… so I didn't kill him. It was him losing spin-control and slam-crashing into the wall.Midna: It doesn't matter, we beat him.*With that, Lewa is presented with the last piece of the fused shadow.*Midna, snatching it: You know the drill, Lewa. Well, now I can finally defeat Lord Helmet.Lewa: Yeah, and I guess it means this adventure is almost over.Midna: I have to say it wasn't all as bad as I thought it'd be.Lewa: Yeah, I guess so. Well, let's go into the magic exit and make our way to Lord Helmet.Midna: Okay, but the way to Lord Helmet isn't as easy as you might think it is. I'll explain it to you on the way.*Midna goes over and creates a portal out. She then turns around and sees that Lewa was back in his regular armor again.*Midna: Whoa! How did you change clothes so quickly?Lewa: Does it really matter?Midna: I guess not.*And so they enter the portal and end up at the Lanayru Spring. Lewa starts to make his way out when he suddenly finds himself face-to-face with the villainous Lord Helmet. AKA Zant. Intimidated by his respirator and deep, powerful voice, Lewa stumbles back. Zant didn't even move at all.*Zant: Hello there, Hero. At last we meet.*Suddenly, Lanayru rises from the water, ready to attack.*Lanayru: Don't worry, Lewa, I'll protect you.Zant, not scared: Oh, dear, a light spirit. Whatever shall I do?*Without moving, Zant unleashes a dark attack that takes out both Lewa and Lanayru instantly.*Zant: Surprise gust attack!Lanayru: I've been instantly defeated!Zant: Time to enter… The Zone where Normal Things Don't Happen Very Often.*As if by magic (and it was), the area is plunged into the twilight. Lewa turns into a wolf, and Midna is forced to show her true self to Zant. Using his dark powers, Zant lifts Midna up and immobilizes her. Like a pixie.*Zant: Midna.Midna: Lord Helmet. Only you could be so bold.Zant: That's not my name, and you KNOW IT.Midna: Stop whining. Zant: Let's see you change your attitude once I have THESE!*He steals the fused shadows from Midna, now making all the hard work she and Lewa did for naught.*Midna: Hey! What are you doing?!Zant: Foolish, Midna, did you think you could really defeat me with such toys? Face it Midna, you're always second-best next to me.Midna: You're insane. Zant: Best be careful, Midna. I have you out-numbered.Midna: Are you blind? There's two of us and one of you.Zant: That's where you're wrong. It's the two of you versus me and my multiple personalities! You tell her, Zant! Hey, get back into my head! No, you get back into my head! We both have the same head, you moron! Hey, stop fighting, you two. Why don't you butt out?! Hey, don't be mean to him! (womanly voice) Zant, dear, dinner is almost ready. (normal voice) Mother, please, I'm in the middle of fighting Midna! Don't you be mean to mom that way! I thought I told you to butt out of it!Midna: Oh, dear…Zant: Let's all sing a song from the motion picture Battleship. (singing/imitating Rihanna) You sank my ship in a hopeless place. You sank my ship in a hopeless place. You sank my ship in a hopeless place. You sank my ship in a hopeless place. Bravo! Thank you, thank you, you're too kind!Midna: I don't know if that was really funny or really terrifying.Zant: Be terrified, my dear. Now that I've taken the fused shadows off your hands, I will return you to the light world where you will soon die a slow and painful death. However, if you join me, then your life shall be spared.Midna: Join you?! After you killed our king, enslaved our people, made me vertically challenged, and took over the kingdom. Never! I'll never joined you!Zant: You never even knew what happened to your father.Midna: I just said so. You killed him.Zant: No, Midna. I am your father.Midna: What? No, you're not.Zant: Sorry, that was one of my other personalities talking. Besides, I know I'm not. Anyways, you should consider joining me.Midna: My answer is still no. I won't join you.Zant: In that case, before I send you to your demise, let me impart you with this final message…*He pulls Midna closer to him. He then puts her face near his… Oh, boy.*Zant: Just think about how these light-dwellers have treated us. How they've forgotten all about us. How they've abused and neglected us. How they've used our home as a prison for criminals they are too weak to deal with themselves! And you're going to help them, Midna. I can't understand that. Midna, I'm on your side. Together, we could put them all in their place. Just imagine it. Such a beautiful and wonderful world it would be, just the both of us. We can give the Zone where Normal Things Don't Happen Very Often the respect it deserves! *Zant then retracts the lower part of his mask, revealing his mouth.*Zant, slightly higher-pitched voice: Midna… I need you…Midna: What's the deal with your voice?Zant: Don't you know? Helmets make voices sound deeper. It's a fact.Midna: No, aside from that. Your normal voice didn't sound that way before.Zant: My spirit guide told me to devour helium to make to smarter. What do you say about my offer now?Midna: I say you're a creepy weirdo and your helmet is stupid.Zant: Wrong answer!*He slams Midna to the ground out of anger.*Zant: As for you, Hero…Lewa, wakes up: Hey, someone's talking to me.Zant: I'm going to use my dark magic to create this deadly glow-in-the-dark baseball. With this, I will--Lewa: Shiny! *He jumps right into it, causing him deep harm, and allowing a curse Zant was about to place on him (had Lewa not interrupted him while he was talking, he would have said that) to take hold of him.*Zant: Wow. I didn't actually think you'd jump into that. Well, works for me.Lewa: What's this dark crystal thing?!Zant: I hope you like being a dog, Hero, because now you're going to be a dog forever! Now for you, Midna.*He uses his dark magic to lift Midna back up. She struggled and kicked as Zant got Lanayru back up. The attack Lanayru was about to use to attack Zant was now aimed at Midna, thus causing her very painful damage. In a matter of moments, she was gone, as was Lanayru for the time being.*Zant: Now, for you, Hero. It would be foolish to say, so you might as well…*Zant turns around to see that Lewa was gone.*Lewa, from far away: Way ahead of you, buddy.Zant: Wow, what a wimp.
  16. All right, before we start, I'd like to point out this link to a comedy called Vezon Tv which was in the same kind of family as Ask Roodaka and A Day in the life of Teridax? in the aspect they all used the same characters. The Vezon in this comedy is the same who appears in Ask Roodaka and guest appears on ADITLOT, and likewise the Makuta in Vezon Tv are the same who are in ADITLOT, etc etc.Unlike those two, however, Vezon Tv didn't get too much love back in the day. I remember a good friend of mine who was a big fan of this comedy, who even suggested a lot of ideas for episodes. One of the biggest was when Vezon ends up in an alternate dimension where he was a judge who heard a trial of Teridax versus Icarax (before it was taken to Judge Tuma), and from there things got insane. He liked the comedy and he wished for me to continue it. Unfortunately, he's no longer on this site... Anyways...Vezon Tv shared a few things from Ask Roodaka, aside from the use of the same characters occasionally dropping in. It had the same sort of wacked-out humor and sometimes Vezon would answer fan mail. It also had some differences, like sometimes Vezon would interview random celebrities or Bionicle characters. There was one member who wanted Vezon to interview him, but he never answered me back. That was an awkward interview to write, I tell you. This comedy would also have spoof songs from Vezon (but written by me) in these mock music video sort of deals. It also had other segments that would refer to popular culture at the time (so some of these chapters are really dated) or the Bionicle story at the time, such as my spoofing of the bachelor show, in where Vezon would give a rose to a moment he found interesting. It was also the first appearance of the insane salesman named Crazy Siddy (an insane version of Sidorak) who sells games at "low low prices." He sounds like a used-car salesman and he was a fan-favorite character among some of my friends.Anyways, why don't we get on with the actual thing now? You're probably bored of me, if you haven't already left the topic after thinking "this guy's boring and he talks too much."Episode 1: Purple Hippo*Inset rock music and “Vezon Tv” title card HERE*Vezon: Hey, everyone… What am I doing here, again?Lord of shadows: Because I said so. And for the fans of this comedy. All 2 of them.Vezon: Fine. I’ll go along with it… for now. Anyways, welcome, webbites to this show… thing. I’m not even sure if we can still call it “Vezon Tv,” considering the original was ended such a long time ago. So instead, we’re going to mix things up a bit! I even got a new satellite transmission thingymajigger!*He holds up something so small and microscopic, you can’t even see it if you tried.*Vezon: Yup, it’s even smaller than the last one I had! Remember that one?LOS: No. No one aside from you and me remember any of the original show.Vezon: Oh. Well, that’s great. And why is it me you decided to bring in? Why not Roodaka or any of those other fools?LOS: I felt like it.Vezon: Well, I am pretty great, aren’t I? I’m probably the greatest character based on a Bionicle character you ever made.*Somewhere in an alternate universe…**Icarax, lost in his dimensional travels, falls through the ceiling and becomes unconscious for a while. He’s woken up by someone shouting in his non-existent ears.*Aerith: Hello-oooooooooooo?Icarax: Gah?!Aerith: Hooray!Icarax: I’m awake! Huh?*Icarax takes a while to look around, only to be more confused than he already is… which is even more confused than he’s always been.*Icarax: Am I dead?Aerith: Not quite.Icarax: Are you an angel?Aerith: No. I’m Aerith. *giggles* You fell through the ceiling. That’s hot.Icarax: Um… So you’re my rescuer, then?Aerith: Nope.*She turns around and imitates how she was when she found Icarax.*Aerith: Hello-ooooooooooo? *Turns back around* That’s all I did.*both laughing*Icarax: Why am I laughing like a moron?*Inside Icarax’s head, in his memories*(Teridax: you nickel-plated twit! You distasteful duncebucket! )Icarax: Oh, yeah… maybe that’s why I was a fan-favorite character based off an actual Bionicle character.*Then somehow, Icarax does a back flip and gets on his feet.*Icarax: I’m very good a back flips. Or at least, I’ve gotten good a back flips ever since I got lost on this weird voyage.Aerith: Really? What happened?Icarax: Well…*flashback, ADITLOT Chapter 116*Mutran: No, I was afraid of this!Mutraine: Stop saying that when you obviously aren’t!Gorast: What are you doing here?Chirox: Trying to stop the zombies Mutran created.Gorast: So you started this?! *She jump onto Mutran as he gets up, beating him senseless.* You’ve really messed up big time, Mutran! If these zombies don’t kill you, I will!Mutraine: Get in line, I called killing him first.Icarax: And what exactly are you trying to do to stop these zombies?Mutran: I made this gun-thing, and I was hoping it would return the zombies back to their graves. But now that Teridax broke it, I don’t think it might work.Teridax: Oh, sure, blame your mistakes on me.Chirox: It doesn’t look that bad. Try it out! *He takes the thing from Mutran and he aims it.*Mutran: Wait, it hasn’t been tested yet!Chirox: Then there’s no better time than right now! *He accidentally fires it at Icarax, sending him to his death.*Mutraine: What’d you do that for?Chirox: I don’t know.Gorast: So did you kill him or what?Mutran: I’m not so sure. Since I haven’t tested it yet, the results are yet to be determined.Teridax: Then may Mata Nui save Icarax, wherever he may be.*At some random house, in the Real World…**Within this particular house, there was a meeting among a few girls, but they weren’t just any girls, oh no. They were Twilight fans… Well most of them anyway. Caution: The following scene might become graphic. Pregnant children and small women are advised to leave the room.*Girl 1: I don’t think the series is good because I don’t like love stories or the supernatural.Girl 2: How dare you, it’s the best series that was ever made, better than Harry Potter!Girl 3: How can you not like it?! Something’s wrong with you!*Just then Icarax, just pops in from out of nowhere.*Icarax: Uh, what just happened?Girl 3: Wait, who is that?!Girl 2: He must be a vampire!Girl 4: Just like in Twilight!Girl 5: Are you sure?Girl 1: He’s just a Makuta. You know, from Bionicle.Girl 2: Shut up, you’re not welcome here!Girl 3: We don’t have to listen to you!Icarax: Oh, boy. I’m dead.*End flashback…*Aerith: Wow. That’s pretty strange. That’s hot.Icarax: And you have graphics that rival Doom 3.Aerith: I think you can think of better pick-up lines than that.Icarax: Hmm… something about this seems eerily familiar…*just then, the film stops and Vezon burns the film roll.*Vezon: Oh, come on! I thought this was about me!LOS: Apparently people want to know what happened to Icarax.Vezon: Well, I’m not one of them. This is about me. Now then, how about we try and do something a little familiar. Unfortunately, I don’t really have Umbra around anymore. But we can do one of my favorite things.LOS: We’re not going to stare at the sun until we go blind.Vezon: What?? Aw… Fine, then let’s just have a stupid interview with a stupid guest.Krekka: Duh…Vezon: I didn’t mean that literally! Oh, fine. (unenthusiastic) Hey, everyone, it’s Krekka.Krekka: My name’s Krekka.Vezon: Yes, I just said that. Now then--Krekka, puts on captain hat: Duh, I’m da captain.Vezon: Uh… okay. Now then, so what’s it like living a life where you’re so easily confused about everything?Krekka: I’m da captain. I boss you now.*Krekka starts rowing with an oar (where did he get it?), and he hits Vezon on the back of the head while pretending to row.*Vezon: You know, I think I can see why Nidhiki hated working with you.Krekka: But I like Nisfreaki.Vezon: That’s not even his name, you know?Krekka: But… all these years, I’ve called him Nisfreaki…Vezon: Well, that just proves one thing: You’re a total moron.Krekka: Exactly.Vezon: So then I’ve been hearing these insane rumors… like this one that says you’ve considered reading a book. I mean, what’s up with that?!Krekka: The book thing is too hard right now.Vezon: Which one are you reading?Krekka: There’s a stripey guy with glasses on the cover. And he’s in all these pictures…Vezon: Wait, so this is a “Where’s Waldo?” book we’re talking about?!Krekka: It has pretty pictures. But I can’t understand it.Vezon: I’m just at a loss of words here. Okay, am I crazy? I know I’m insane, but this guy here is just making things harder on me!Krekka, hugs Vezon: Daddy!Vezon, gasping: Let me go! A hug from you is the equivalent to dying!*Krekka releases him and sits back down.*Krekka: You quoted The Shadowed One.Vezon: Yeah, because I thought he was exaggerating when he said that, but now I know it’s true! Okay, Krekka, do me a favor. Stare at that window.*Krekka nods, wearing a bucket on his head.*Krekka: Got it.Vezon: Good.*Vezon starts to walk away and he goes off screen, and the sound of footsteps going up some stairs can be heard, followed by a door slamming.**Meanwhile, we check back in with Vezon.*Vezon: A lot of things have changed in the three years I’ve been gone. Like I got this sweet golden mask stuck on my head! And now apparently heroes are made in a factory. I don’t get that, if you ask me. Toa didn’t come from a factory. Well, the shiny guy that no one ever sees has a factory, but he doesn’t count!*Vezon continues going upstairs, only to be met with some very crazy-looking goons and a hunchback in all-black armor.*Von Nebula: Hi, there. Wanna hear a joke.Vezon: O.OVon Nebula: What is a Hero’s favorite drink?[awkward silence]Von Nebula: See, this is the part where you ask “What?” so I can ask--Vezon, angrily: What?Von Nebula: Oh… you kind of threw off my rhythm there. Let’s start again, from the top. What is a Hero’s favorite drink?[awkward pause]Vezon: What?Von Nebula: Power-ade. Get it? They have to recharge their cores, so…Vezon: Can I go now?Von Nebula: You know… I’m tired of people when they don’t laugh at my jokes. So when I’m unable to fulfill my dream, I attack and destroy lives so no one can fulfill their dreams!*Von Nebula moves over, immobilizes Vezon, and makes him fall to the floor.*Vezon: Um… we’ll be right back.Announcer: You’re watching… whatever this show is called now. Am I getting paid for this?Crazy Siddy: Crazy Siddy here with Crazy Siddy’s Import Game Emporium!

  17. Yes. Yes they are. I wasn't going to use them in that unfinished story, so I figured I might as well recycle them somehow. And you're going to notice a trend in certain battles. If I skip it from the actual game, it means I found the fight uninteresting and/or I just plain out hated it.Here is chapter 13. One more before one of my favorite chapters in the story. So this one is going to be kind of slow since this is just building up to chapter 14.*After seeing the vision from Lanayru, Lewa decides to eventually go and check on on Hahli. Eventually. He was somewhat curious about Lake Hylia and its people, so he took the time to go around and see. Meanwhile, unknowingly to Lewa, Midna had her own plan in action…*Fyer: Hey, there, guy.Lewa, fear: CLOWN!Fyer: Whoa, there, guy. I don't do that thing anymore. I left the circus to start up my own business.Lewa: Really? What business is that?Fyer: I shoot people out of a cannon.Lewa: Uh… that's… interesting.Fyer: How about it, guy? Want to have a go? 20 rupees.Lewa: What have I got to lose?Fyer: That's the spirit. Just step inside here and you'll have the ride of your life.*Lewa steps behind the door, which promptly shuts. After that, Fyer begins a-peddling his whatcamahoozit contraption with the scary circus music, and from the shack's roof comes a large cannon. The cannon rotates around and then it fires Lewa like a cannonball out of sight.**Sometime after, he lands in a small housing of some sort full of chickens. He looks around and sees another clown guy.*Lewa, fear: CLOWN!Falbi: HAI.Lewa: Get away from me!Falbi: I run a business here.Lewa: Who gave all these clowns a business?Falbi: Take a cucco and fly over to the Isle of Riches over there. Only 30 rupees.Lewa, with a cucco: The sword on my back says I do this for free.Falbi: Uh…*Later that day…*Lewa: Okay, now to find Hahli. Where am I again?*Before he could figure it out, he finds himself attacked by a familiar golden wolf and then transported to a familiar looking realm with a familiar looking skeleton guy.*Hero's Shade: This time, I just decided to find you.Lewa: That's… convenient.Hero's Shade: Yes. In my days, I was like you. Then again, I had Navi who did a lot of speak-teaching at me.Lewa: I don't know what a Navi is, so can we move on?Hero's Shade: Oh, yes. First, let's review the Shield attack.*Lewa bashes the old adventurer with his shield, and then attacks him with a few slashes.*Hero's Shade: Excellent. You've learned well. Now for the next skill. The Back slice. Let it be hewn into your mind.Lewa: Cool. How does that one work?Hero's Shade: As before, focus on your target. Then you must roll-jump over to their side to get behind them. After that, attack them with all you got.Lewa: Like this?*As the Hero's Shade tries to move, Lewa quickly jumps and rolls past him. Then he quickly delivers a few strikes to his back, knocking him down.*Hero's Shade, groans: Excellent. The back slice has been passed. Take sword in hand and meet me again.*Lewa is teleported back to where he was before and then he realizes he was somewhere at the upper part of the river bed, right where he met Iza, who was now ready to open her business again… but not before some of Zant's minions came around.*Iza: Monsters! They're even worse than those freaky bugs! *She runs inside, leaving Lewa to face them head on. He hadn't done anything like this since long before. Making work of them and using some of the skills learned from the Hero's Shade, Lewa was able to best them.*Lewa: They weren't so tough.Iza: Wow… those were some sharp moves you had out there.Lewa: Ah, it was nothing. Just all in a day's work.Iza: Hey, why don't you step inside my cabin over here? I run a business like my brother and sister.Lewa: Sure-fine. Who is your brother?Iza: His name is Coro and he has his business in Ordon woods.Lewa: I think I've met him before… And your sister?Iza: She's got a fishing thing going on. Her name's Hena.Lewa: All right. So what kind of business do you have?Iza: I rent boats. Well, I used to. See, thing is a rockfall just closed up the route and now my business is sunk.Lewa: Why don't I help you out?Iza: You'd do that?Lewa: Sure. Why not?Iza: Thanks, you just saved my business. Why don't I just give you this bomb bag here? In fact, you can even keep it when you're done. Just take care of those rocks so the river can be opened again. Take this boat over here. If you got a bow, you can make bomb arrows.Lewa: Yeah, and I still don't understand how that's possible.*Lewa gets into the boat and begins to make work of the rocks, blasting them away and slowly getting the river open again. In no time, he clears the river and makes it to Lake Hylia once more.*Tarix: Thank you for your patronage. I'll just take this boat back up the river now.Lewa: Are you like her assistant?Tarix: You can think of it that way. Good going out there.*Later on, Lewa discovers Hena's place of business. He steps inside and he get a big surprise in the form of a cute girl who.*Hena: Why, hello there.Lewa: Uh…Hena: *giggles* So, what can I do for you?Lewa: I'm… new around here and…Hena: Why, pleased to meet you. I'm Hena.Lewa: Yeah. I've met your brother and sister.Hena: Really? Wow. So then you probably know about my little fishing business. You know, it runs in our family.*Lewa walks over to a wall of pictures, and sure enough he sees Coro, Iza, and Hena, each holding up their best catches. Then he sees someone else.*Lewa: Who is this?*flashback…*Lewa (DOT): Hey, there, king itchy!Fisherman: Please don't call me that…*end flashback*Hena: That's one of our ancestors. He's said to be one of the greatest fisherman of his time. He also was said to have a big itching problem… *Hena gives her head a scratch while Lewa isn't looking.*Lewa: All right. Is that your boat over there?Hena: Oh, yes. But I only use it whenever I go out to the river with my boyfriend.Lewa: Who is he?Hena: I don't have one…*And I'm going to cut the scene here because… well, I'm the writer and that makes me the man. Five minutes!**Lewa eventually begins to make his way to the town again, when he spots a bug. Hello bug. It was a gold and glowing stag beetle, so Lewa took it for himself. Traveling a little further, he finds yet another stag beetle of the same attributes, so as before he takes it for himself. While he was on his journey, he was met with a familiar…*The Postman: HEEEEEEEEEEEEEY! !!!*The scary postman is running towards Lewa and boy does he look scary.*The Postman: So, Mr. Lewa, how have you been enjoying your mail?Lewa: I haven't. Now hurry-move, I'm on a schedule. I've done nothing to contribute to the plot yet.The Postman: Okay, here is your letter. Now I'm off. *He runs off again and Lewa just shakes his head in shame.*Lewa: What a weird-freak.*Lewa eventually makes it into the market place, which is once more full of life instead of being full of spirits. Lewa however, kind of forgot where the bar was, so he looks around and eventually spots a house. He goes inside, and gets a big surprise. You might say this house could make a Le-Matoran proud. Trees and shrubbery grew all around and it looked like a miniature forest. Then he looked over and saw a young Matoran girl.*Agitha: Oh, you startled me. I thought you were a giant grasshopper. But you're not, you're a Toa. Still, you're dressed in emerald armor, so that tells me you like bugs, too.Lewa: Oh. Hello. Well, you know… Anyway, I was looking for a--Agitha: Welcome to my bug kingdom!Lewa: Bug kingdom?Agitha: Yes. All for my lovely subjects and me to live in.Lewa: Not to sound rude, but where are they?Agitha, sighs: I'm not sure. I invited them all to a royal ball, but it looks like they all got lost along the way. I don't know what to do. I wish I could find them all.*Lewa reaches into his pack and pulls out the bug he found earlier.*Lewa: Is this one of them?*Agitha squeals in delight and takes the bug up in her hands.*Lewa: Uh…Agitha: Li'l beetle, li'l beetle, I want to use that shiny shell as a pillow and fall asleep. You went bug hunting for me, didn't you? To be honest, I doubted you would… I guess some might consider me a poor-mannered princess.Lewa: Aw, that's okay, I don't think that.Agitha: From now on, if you bring me insects, I'll share my happiness with you. And you can keep that in this.*With that, Lewa gets a bigger wallet, meaning he could now hold more money.*Agitha: I wonder if there's a partner for my li'l stag beetle somewhere close by where you this one.Lewa: As a matter of fact…Agitha: You've brought me a pair!*With that, she pays Lewa twice as she would have regularly paid him. Happy, Agitha thanks him and reminds him to find the other 22 bugs. Lewa leaves and he eventually finds his way to the bar, where he meets THE DOCTOR.*Dr. Strakk: When do I get paid?Hahli: Please help this young man!Dr. Strakk: Not until I get paid.*Strakk leaves in a huff, but not before glaring at Lewa as he exits.*Dr. Strakk: Who you staring at, snack shack? You going to pay me?Lewa: No.Dr. Strakk: Then what good are you? *He leaves angrily out the door. Hahli rushes after him, but she's too late.*Lewa: Hey, Hahli.Hahli:… *She turns away and goes back over to the mysterious young man.*Lewa: What gives? Well, fine, I didn't want to speak-talk to you either.Gali: Don't worry, no name, I am sure things will be all right.Hahli: That doctor's a real creep!Gali: Yes. Yes, he is. But I just remembered something. There's a guy in New Ta-Metru who could help us. He owns a hotel/carnival and he also practices as a doctor.Hahli: Really?! We must go there!Guard 9: And don't worry, ladies, we shall escort you there!*The other guards wave their spears and give loud, victorious battle cries.*Gali: See? I'm sure they'll keep us safe from the monsters out there.*Moment she says that, all the guards suddenly disappear, leaving only Lewa.*Gali: You stupid guards aren't allowed in here anymore!Hahli: It's hopeless.Gali: Wait a minute, I see we have a young swordsman over there who didn't leave like some yellow bellied whelp.Lewa: Me? Yeah, I'll help you.Gali: Well, then, thank you there, handsome.Lewa: Um…Hahli: Let's load everything up to go to New Ta-Metru! *She runs out the back and readies the wagon.*Gali: Poor, no name. She's doing everything she can for this one, yet she doesn't even know who she is. I feel as though you know her, don't you?Lewa: Yeah. But she just ignored me. Very rude-mean of her.Gali: Well, whatever the case, looks like she doesn't even remember who she is right now.Lewa: Who is this?Gali: I am not very sure. I think he is a Glatorian prince. He could possibly be Prince Khilro.Lewa: Son of Queen Ciutella…?Gali: Hey, how'd you know who the queen was?Lewa: I… read up on my history.Gali: All right. And speaking of history, my bar has quite a history. It has a secret passageway that leads to the Coliseum, you know.Lewa: Really?Gali: Yeah. Just don't tell anyone. You're the only one I've ever told.*So one uneventful trip to New Ta-Metru later, Lewa and Epona escorted the wagon driven by Gali to Tahu's hotel/carnival. Tahu went out and greeted them as the group took Prince Khilro to a room.*Tahu: Thank goodness you brought him here in time.Hahli: Yeah, the doctor over there refused to do anything until we gave him money.Tahu: He's a quack. But don't worry now, things will be better soon.*Tahu walks over to Lewa.*Tahu: So this is the mayor's daughter.Lewa: Yeah, but she doesn't have a clue who she is.Tahu: Not sure what to tell you there. One idea I have where we just take a big rock and then--Lewa: I didn't say hurt her, I just want her memory restored.Tahu: But that would restore her memory. Oh, well. Then I am out of ideas. I'm just going to go walking around the town.Lewa: In the middle of the night?Tahu: Is there not a better time? *Tahu steps out of the hotel/carnival and begins his evening walk.*Kopaka: I'd better go and follow him, in case he gives into the pyromania part of his mind.Gali: I'll go ahead and do that for you, so you just stay here in case someone needs anything.*Gali then walks out and joins Tahu. Now let the Tahu x Gali shipping begin. Have fun.**Lewa walked out as well, but as he did, the spirit of Queen Ciutella appeared to him. Entranced, he tried to approach her, but she moved back. He tried again and she moved still.*Ciutella: Follow me, young hero.*And thus the Deku butler/ Dampe race began. Lewa followed her into the Ta-Metru graveyard. Interestingly he noticed a grave stone marked for "Tahu I." Passing by it, he saw her pass through a wall. Unsure of how to get through, he took out his trusty Midak skyblaster that has been absent for nearly most of the series and blasted the wall down. I guess he wanted to save the bombs for later. Once there, he sees a lone grave stone on a lonely island.*Ciutella: This is the grave site for the royal family. My husband left some special armor here for the chosen hero, if he would ever need it. I wish for you to have it. He would have been honored to meet you.*So Lewa makes his way and looks behind the grave stone and discover a box. Taking what was inside, he now had some scaly blue armor.*Lewa: So I can breathe underwater and not drown-die now?Ciutella: That is correct.Lewa: All right, sounds good.*With that, Midna appears to him.*Midna: Lewa.Lewa: Midna! Where have you been?Midna: I'm tired of watching you run around and talking to people and treating this as a filler episode. So while you were talking to the girl at the fishing place, I broke into the Lakebed Temple, beat the miniboss, got you the clawshot, and stole the boss key.Lewa: Can you do that?Midna: Who cares? I'm tired of waiting for you. Now, I'm going to teleport you to the boss room so we can get that last part of the fused shadow.*Midna forcibly teleports Lewa into the Lakebed Temple's boss room.*Lewa: I'm not sure this is the right way--Midna: I don't care, just open that door like a good little whipping boy and get in there. You're going to fight a boss. You're going to beat the boss. You're going to hand over the last fused shadow and we are going to defeat Lord Helmet.Lewa: He must be getting ready to challenge us…*Elsewhere…*Zant, throws his hands up in the air: I LOVE CARLY RAE JEPSEN!
  18. I've just finished going through all of the movie trailers you made, but since this is for LOMN, I'll comment on just that one. I can see what you mean about omitting the Mask of Time and "discovering mask powers" thing, since it would just make the trailer confusing and drag on too long. It definitely captures the whole feeling of a darkness rising, especially with the music added into it, as well as added the needed sense of urgency in saving Metru Nui. My only complaint (and it's really minor) was Turaga Dume's dialogue near the beginning. It might have worked with just "You are a mask maker, not a Toa." It's a minor nitpick, but it doesn't take away from the experience.In general, these fan-made trailers are really good. LOMN is probably my favorite Bionicle movie, so I definitely like this one. For all of the trailers (since I can't exactly comment on them) you've used great choices in music. And these are a lot more epic than the original ones. I almost like the TLR one more than the actual trailer for it. They definitely capture your attention and make you want to see the movie. In fact, seeing this almost makes me want to see LOMN again. Great job on all four of them.
  19. I kind of figured. The view count is over 140, so I'm guessing someone has to be looking at this topic now and again. But I've kind of gotten used to being the only one posting in my topics. As I said, I'm not looking for being popular or getting 100 comments in a topic. I just want to write these stories and post the chapters because writing makes me happy and I enjoy it.Like I said earlier on, some things just can't be done. I mean, I could, but would you really want to see Krika be some crazy insane weirdo or Roodaka being some kind, nice, motherly-type character? I'm just exaggerating, but point is eventually I'd run out of characters for certain roles and in order to have purely Bionicle characters I'd have to resort to just putting them into random unfitting roles. And since it is a Zelda-Bionicle cross-over, it made sense to me to have a mix of both worlds, including characters.All right, so here's Chapter 12, continuing on with Lewa and Midna going around the Lanayru province and restoring the light. And as I mentioned earlier, this is where I introduce some Glatorian OC's I had for a rejected story I never around to writing to. Before you ask, I don't have references for them, so sorry about that.*After eavesdropping on a conversation among the guards in Gali's bar, Midna and Lewa went out to Lake Hylia. Lewa raced onto the Great bridge of Hylia when he noticed something was not right.*Midna: What is it now?Lewa: Do bridges smell like gasoline?Midna: No.Lewa: Oh, okay. This one smells like gasoline.Midna: Are you sure?Lewa: Have my wolf-senses ever lied?Midna: Actually, no. You make a good point.Lewa: What do normal bridges smell like?Midna: How in the world would I know?Lewa: Well, you said you knew bridges don't smell like gasoline, so I figured you knew what a bridge should smell like.Midna: Well, no, I don't, but I do know they wouldn't smell like gasoline.Hahu: Ha! I have you now! Now I shall burn you!Midna: Is that… Tahu?Hahu: No, silly imp girl. I am Hahu! Tahu's evil clone brother!Midna, sarcastic: I can see the resemblance.Hahu: And unlike Tahu, I do not fear the pyromania as he does!*He takes out a bow and arrow, sets the tip on fire and launches it on the other end of the bridge.*Lewa: Whoa! What are you doing? Are you working for Lord Helmet?Hahu: Yes! But I'm just doing this for fun! Fire burns! Fire burns all! *He takes another arrow and launches it a few feet away, now trapping Lewa and Midna.*Midna: Oh, that's just great. More fire. Lewa, see if you can--Lewa: Forget that, I'm leap-jumping!Midna: Lewa, wait! The lake is all drained around here, so that means there's no…*SPLAT!*Midna: …water. Lewa? Are you okay?*Lewa crying in pain.*Midna: Oh, dear.*Sometime later, after Lewa somehow healed from his injuries thanks to VIDEO GAME LOGIC…*Lewa: I'm guessing there's a spirit around here, so let's go find him.Midna: There's just one problem with that.Lewa: What is that?Midna: He's up there… *points to cavern with sign that reads "Lanayru Spring."*Lewa: Okay.Midna: And we're down here. The dried up lake. No water whatsoever. We can't get up there properly.Lewa: Oh…Midna: So first we need to find out where the problem is so we can get the water going again.*Looking around, she noticed a large mutant bird. With quick thinking, she ditches Lewa and takes mount on the creature. The Twilit Carrier Kargarok was now at her command.*Midna: Let's use this thing to go upstream, Lewa. We can cover more ground this way. *Without any hesitation, she orders the strange bird who sounds like a dying car horn to violently grab Lewa.*Lewa: You better not scratch my armor!Midna: The armor you only have as a Toa?Lewa: Oh, yeah.Midna: Let's take this guy up the riverbed. That ought to be more fun and easy than climbing it ourselves.*So Midna uses the bird-thing to fly through the cave, avoiding the archers who are firing at them and using the bird to take them out. Eventually, the make it to the upper river district where Lewa discovers some more insects with his senses, as well as the spirit of Foxxy Cleopatra moping around outside of a small hut sort of location.*Iza: It's so cold out here… I miss my sweater.Lewa: I told you sweaters were important, Midna.Midna: Quiet, you. We need to make haste. We can't do anything to help her right now until we restore light to this area.Iza: There's no point to all this. My business is a bust with the water being gone and all. And why is it so could up here??*Seeing as there wasn't much else to do, the two move forward and they make it into the Great Temple area, which is completely frozen over.*Lewa: You know, my father mentioned something about this place being wide-frozen once before.Midna: Where is your father?Lewa: He was dragged off to the Happy Farm… somewhat like my grandfather. According to him, anyway.Midna, sarcastic: I can't imagine why.Lewa: Where is everyone? It's so cold-quiet here.Midna: Try your senses and see if we find out anything.*Lewa does that, and within the frozen ice around them, there are Toa, Glatorian, and pretty much everybody just trapped inside.*Lewa: By Mata Nui's pointy shoulders…Midna: Now this is spooky, and I've seen a lot of stuff. But at least now we know what happened to all the water. Now we just have to find a way to get this place unfrozen.Lewa: Wait… my brain is working!Midna: You have a brain?Lewa: Work with me. That evil meteor back in the Onu-Metru and New Ta-Metru area…Midna: I still don't even know how you all took half of Ta-Metru and stuck it in between Onu-Metru and Ko-Metru…Lewa: What if we quick warped the meteor here and dropped it, warm-thawing the entire area?Midna: Before you do that, think first… The meteor is huge. And it talks. And it has one eye. And it wants brains. And it sings. This place is smaller and surrounded by so much ice.Lewa: You're right, let's do it!Midna: You totally did not listen to a word I said.*So on the Death Mountain trail, Midna warps Lewa to the meteor as he wanted, but very reluctantly.*Midna: Okay, last chance here. Think about what you are about to do here.Lewa: I did. I'm going to be there Toa-hero that saved Ga-Metru.Midna: All right, but if something goes wrong, don't say I didn't warn you…Meteor: Go down to your neighbor's place. See the dull expression on his face. You'd be doing him a favor if you brought him to me. He ain't using his brain, he's just watching TV.Midna: As catchy as his song is…*Midna uses her powers to lift the evil meteor from the ground, send it skyward into the portal and off they went, back to Ga-Metru's Great Temple area.*Lewa: Okay, a little to the left… a little forward… okay, now drop it!Midna: Seriously, do you want to--?Lewa: I said drop it!*Midna begrudgingly dropped the meteor onto the ice, and now this is where the fun begins…*Meteor: (no longer singing) Gah! What's happening?!*The meteor falls into the ice, melting it into water and causing a roaring tidal wave. Engulfed by water, the meteor suffers and is left to melt away.*Meteor: Zasquat?! AAAAHHH! I'm melting, I'm melting! What a world…!Midna: Well, I'll be darned. Here, I thought you would have nuked this place to Karzahni, but I guess I was wrong. Not only that, but you killed the evil meteor so no one can feed it brains.Lewa: Am I a super-genius or what?Queen Ciutella: Well done, hero…Lewa: Who said that?!Ciutella: Why, I did.Lewa: Who are you?Ciutella: I am Queen Ciutella. I came from--Lewa: A world below?Ciutella: Uh… no.Lewa: Okay. So that rules out Gran Pulse.Ciutella: Bara Magna, a place of great warriors. My husband and I were awaiting for the hero to arrive. But unfortunately my husband is no longer with us.Lewa: Who was your husband?*Flashback…*Lewa (DOT): So, you see, you largely Kingship, we don't know where your daughter is…King Krulloc: No! Not my darling Kiina! I can't survive without my darling daughter!Navi: Should we tell him the truth?Lewa (DOT): I don't think we should…*Present day…*Lewa: So your husband was a largely Kingship sort of guy?Ciutella: Yes. But he wasn't always like that.Lewa: Whatever. So what is it you wish of me, your Queenship?Ciutella: Funny, you remind me of another hero my husband and I met so long ago… Well, I need for you to look out for my son. He left here before we were attacked by a strange man with a helmet and his minions. I ordered him to get help, but I fear it was too late for the both of us, and now… now I'm afraid he's lost.Lewa: There was nothing you could have done. If he stayed here, he would have died as well.Ciutella: Thank you… You're very sweet…Midna, gagging: Please, someone get me a bag.Ciutella, ignoring Midna: After you find him, I will grant you the power of surviving underwater. Your journey will take you to the Lakebed temple and I can imagine this will be of great help to you.Lewa: Aw, but I don't like the water. I can't swim.Ciutella: With this, that won't be a problem at all for you.Lewa: If only I had like, some armor that could shift-change to my environment so that no climate will be my master.Greg Farshtey: You do. But in this story, you're just too dumb to realize that you already do and don't use it.Lewa: But where is this so-called power?Ciutella: In the graveyard in what you call the new Ta-Metru.Lewa: What…? I have to go into a graveyard?Ciutella: Yeah. Is that a problem?Lewa: Well, I mean I'm supposed to be a Toa-hero, and yet this sounds like grave robbing. So does this make me like Indiana Jones or Lara Croft?Ciutella: I guess so. Besides, not like you're really stealing it. I'm giving you my permission.Midna: You know, this is really fascinating, but could we please move on now? Before I start getting older?Lewa: Fine…*Lewa jumps into the river and it carries him down stream all the way back to where he started below the Great Bridge of Hylia.*Lewa: That bridge isn't so great.Midna: Whatever. Look, now we can get over there. Just climb up and we can make it to the spring.*Lewa does so and he makes it into the spring to talk to the spirit.*Lanayru: You. Hero. Take. Go.Lewa: Finally, someone who understands.*Lewa takes the vessel of light and he begins going after the insects of light. They take him all around Ga-Metru. Like behind a small shack where a scary clown man lived, up the river bed through the use of the Kargarok, Iza's business, most of the river area, and eventually he caught all but one…*Lewa: That's all of them… I think.Midna: Wait, there's got to be more… Hold on, let's head back over to the spring anyway and see if we missed something.*So they went back over to the spring area, but to their surprise, they were ambushed by what seemed to be an oversized version of a twilight insect.*Midna: Whoa!Lewa: Well, that's just great.*So faced with a mini-boss even before the dungeon, Lewa had to make work of the giant insect, which flew around him, taunting him. Lewa attacked whenever it made a dive for him, taking down the insect and nearly drowning it. When it capsized to the water, Lewa attacked it some more, finally defeating it and claiming the last tear of light. Taking it back to the spring, Lanayru was restored and light was returned to the area, thus Lanayru was back to his true form and Lewa back to his.*Midna: Well, that takes care of that. Well, see you later, Toa-Hero. *With that, Midna disappears and Lanayru appears to him in his serpentine form.*Lanayru: Thank you, chosen hero.Lewa: All in a day's work.Lanayru: Now then, I have to show you something.Lewa: This isn't going to be some freak-scary vision, is it?Lanayru: Uh… no?Lewa: Okay.Lanayru: All right, here we go. Just sit back, shut up, and hang onto your seat. Okay, once upon at time, there were three golden goddesses who looked like Oscars. They created the land and they brought to us three golden triangles. And… are you even listening?Lewa: Whoa, this is crazy. *He looks over and there is Hahli.* Is this scaring you, too?Hahli: Totally… *Lewa doesn't notice she has a bat behind her back.* I want the triangles!!!*Hahli moves in to attack Lewa. After that, her victory is short-lived as she is hit in the back with a bat. Who is the attacker? Closer look reveals… Sephiroth?! After Hahli falls to the ground, Sephiroth gives a cold laugh.*Sephiroth: The black materia-- I mean, the triangles will be mine. *Sephiroth then removes his face to reveal it was actually a mask, and that it was actually Lewa the whole time.**Lewa, dressed as Sephiroth, runs towards the Triforce, but before he can reach it, he's stopped by three dark clones.*Dark Lewa: Ha ha ha! I told you someday I'd be back! Now it's payback time for trapping me in the Water Temple!*He banishes Lewa to the shadow realm and seconds later, Dark Lewa was now wearing Lewa's armor and Sephiroth cosplay.*Dark Lewa 2: Whoa, man, nice threads!Dark Lewa 3: Yeah, man, now let's get those triangles!Dark Lewa: Yeah, let's get our revenge!*Before the trio could do anything, the fused shadows appear and defeat the three dark clones, thus ending the vision that to this day just doesn't make ANY SENSE TO ME!*Lanayru: So I guess now you have an idea of what the fused shadows are, right?Lewa, cowering in fear: I want my blankie.Lanayru: Don't worry, it was just a vision.Lewa: Could you have just told me instead of giving me a nightmare?! I already have nightmares! Like this one about some woman in red and black who wears a mask and murders people.Lanayru: Uh… no, I'm not saying it.Lewa: Saying what?Lanayru: Saying that she was real and she almost destroyed the world. Oops.Lewa: Mata Nui! *resumes cowering in fear.*Lanayru: I need to think before I talk.
  20. What about Fado's house ?Good chappy, although not into FF, so I don't get the references . Still good nonetheless.Also, does it bother you that I'm your only reader?~MN~WHO? All you really have to know about Fang for this story is that she's from a land down under (no, not Australia, but close) called Gran Pulse, she can fight, and she has an Australian accent. And she makes me laugh. If this were the old ShadowBionics on the old BZPower that everyone used to kick around, then yes it would. However, after losing some valuable friends on here and seeing the loss of a key person, he is gone and now only I remain. Losing so many people kind of toughened me up. And frankly, I'm just here to post chapters of my stories. I write because it makes me HAPPY. I don't care about viewers/readers/whatever you'd consider them. So, no, it doesn't bother me at all. That ShadowBionics who would be bothered by it is long gone.Enough about my boring life, here is chapter 11 of the story. We move on some more with the plot.*After getting some now-redundant training from Mayor Bo, defeating King Bulblin, winning the trust of Onu-Metru, and beating the Fire Lord with some surprise help, Lewa set off to get the three pieces of the key in order to take on the Patriarch, who apparently turned into some evil monster by a dark power.*Midna: Can you go any slower?Lewa: Don't blame me if I can quick-move on these magnetic rocks! How is this even possible?ShadowBionics: VIDEO GAME LOGIC.Lewa: Besides, that weirdo Ooccoo wasn't any much help…*2 minutes earlier…*Lewa: Hey, Midna, is it hot in here or is it just--?Midna: No, Lewa… just don't.Chuggaaconroy: *shakes his head in shame.* Not even I would make a pun that bad.Lewa: Why must you be so cruel-mean? I have self-esteem issues, you know. *While Lewa looked down in disappointment, he notices a random pot starting to move.*Lewa: The pot is haunted!!Midna: The pot isn't haunted, you stooge! Just use your sword on it.Lewa: Okay…*Lewa chops the pot in half, and sure enough Ooccoo pops out, making some strange squabbling noises that sound just… strange. I hope we don't encounter a whole race of these weird sort of creatures.*Ooccoo: Oh! Hello there, fellow adventurer. Funny running into you here.Lewa: I'd say the same thing. Why are you in a volcano I just so happen to be trek-questing in?Ooccoo: I don't know. Everything before last night was a blur. I know, let's team up again. Two heads are better than one!Midna: Better than none is more like it, with Lewa around.*And thus Lewa got Ooccoo, and now we end this flashback.*Midna: Whatever. Let's just talk to those old folks and get this over with.Lewa: Come now, Midna. The elderly are our greatest resource ever-full of deep wisdom and experience. They are important members of society, and I'm sure whatever they have to talk to us about will be intuitive and insightful.Midna: Hmm. I never thought of it that way.Lewa: Have I ever been wrong?*Well, anyways, since the process of him meeting with each and every elder took quite a while, this scene was cut to make for time. But in the end, the first elder gave him the key piece, as did the second and third elders.**So with the complete key, Lewa makes his way for the locked door and enters a dark chamber. Sure enough, there is Whenua, although now he is much larger and chained up, his arms hanging from the ceiling and his legs chained to the floor. He is breathing heavily when he spots Lewa.*Lewa: All right, he's chained. This is gonna be easy.*In the irony of his words, the changed Whenua begins to stir. The jewel in his head glows a bright crimson and he begins to pull at his chains. After failing to break the chains, Whenua roars and begins to glow until his body ignites. Weakened by the intense heat, the chains give away when Whenua pulls his arms free. It was definite he was no longer the Onu-Metru Patriarch. He was now something much larger and dangerous. He was now Twilit Igniter Pyrunua…*Lewa: Maybe not…*Pyrunua, angered at Lewa's appearance, begins to run at him, but Lewa being more nimble and quick, was able to dodge him. Then he noticed the chains at his legs. With fast thinking, Lewa grabs at the chains. Pyrunua pulls him due to his larger size and greater strength.*Lewa: Okay, that's not working out very well…*Looking again, Lewa notices the chamber's floor is made partially out of the magnetic rock. So before going back to his strategy, he puts on the iron boots, this time able to trip Pyrunua and… defeat him??*Pyrunua, as he falls: Oops! *Then he falls flat on his face. Pyrunua was defeated and the curse on him lifted.*Lewa: Are you joking? That was it? All I had to do was making him fall face-flat on the floor??Fang: Gotta hand it to you, not bad of a job there.Lewa: Where'd you come from??Fang: Place called Gran Pulse. Really nice place, you know.Lewa: Uh…Fang: Just thought I'd catch the show and see how you'd fair. Well, in that case, I guess I'll be heading off, then.*Before Lewa could question the warrior woman further, the second fused shadow appears to him.*Midna: Well, at least I got another fused shadow out of this.Lewa: You??Midna: Yeah, me. Now give me that! You don't even know what these are. *She turns away and creates a magic exit.* Now let's get out of here before they find out we killed him.Whenua: Oh, man, my head…Midna: I guess we didn't kill him after all.Whenua: What did I do last night?*With that, Lewa runs into the exit and gets out of the mines, leaving a confused Whenua to figure things out for himself. He then ends up at the Eldin Spring to speak to whatever his name is.*Eldin: Well done, hero. I'm sure you know what to do next.Lewa: No idea.Eldin: Fine. Just talk to Midna. I'm tired of talking to you. *With that, Eldin goes away and Lewa turns around, just in time to see Tahu and the gang ready to greet him.*Tahu, unfazed: Thank goodness you're completely unharmed.*Colin pushes his way through the crowd and tries to run over to Lewa, but falls due to the fact he is still recovering. Lewa goes over to him and helps him back up.*Lewa: Colin, you're alive.Colin: Lewa, you're still alive.Lewa: …Colin: Just kidding.*Later…*Lewa: Hey, Barnes, I need bombs.Barnes: Oh, well that's fine and good, man. Here you go.Lewa: Wait, I don't have to go through any kind of process?Barnes: Sorry, man, I just haven't felt the same since those monsters blew up my house.Lewa: Uh… yeah. Darn those monsters.Barnes: Oh, and I don't know if I told you, but you can put one of those bombs to your arrows to make bomb arrows.Lewa: But… How would that work?Barnes: I don't know, man. I don't question these things.Lewa: Wouldn't the air resistance push back against the arrow due to the heavy object at the end? And then wouldn't it just result in the arrow just going about two feet before fall-plopping to the ground?Barnes: I don't know, man, I just sell the stuff.ShadowBionics: VIDEO GAME LOGIC.*Sometime later, while Lewa tests out the bomb arrow theory, some of those said monsters come around and mess up the Bridge of Eldin, taking out a portion of it so that--*Gandalf: You shall not pass!!Lewa: Ah, great, they nuked the bridge.Midna: I don't think they nuked it.Lewa: Either way, I have to find another path… You said we must go to wherever Lanayru is, right?Midna: Yeah, that's more or less what I said while you were shooting bomb arrows like a fool.Lewa: That would be towards the Coliseum of Metru Nui, closer to Ga-Metru then.*As Lewa goes off to find another way, he is met with a familiar golden wolf, which tries to bite his head off. One more he is taken into an ancient realm where he meets the Hero's Shade.*Hero's Shade: You're late.Lewa: I had things to do.Hero's Shade: Like toy-playing with bomb arrows?Lewa: Oh, you saw that…?Hero's Shade: We must not mess around. We must make haste. I shall teach you the next skill, the shield attack. Let it be hewn into your mind.Lewa: Cool. How does it work?Hero's Shade: Before that, let us review the finishing blow.*Wasting no time, Lewa kicks the Shade to the ground and then leaps into the air and pierces him with the sword as before.*Hero's Shade, groans: Good, you remembered. Now then, the shield attack. To use it, just focus on your target and bash them with your shield. This leaves your target confused-dazed and subject to your attack.Lewa: Like this? *Lewa randomly bashes the Shade with his shield, knocking him back, and then he delivers a few slashes at him with his sword.*Hero's Shade, groans: Excellent. The second hidden skill, the shield attack, has been passed. Next time we meet, try and be a little earlier next time.Lewa: Can't promise you that.Hero's Shade: Ugh, you kids today…*With that, Lewa is transported back to where he was before and able to resume his quest to find a new passage way. After a while, he is able to make it just outside of Ga-Metru, which has been taken over by the Twilight as well.*Midna: So, you ready, Lewa?Lewa, whining: I don't wanna go back in there…Midna: Don't worry. I promise it won't be so bad this time.Lewa: Okay…*Midna travels through the Twilight, and then reaches out her shadow hand, grabbing Lewa and pulling him into the dark realm in a manner so violent as he struggles and screams in horror. Once inside, Lewa once again becomes a wolf and Midna appears to him once more.*Midna: So, you happy to be a wolf this time?Lewa: No, not really. I don't even wanna be here.Midna: Not even to try saving that girl you like so much?Lewa: Hahli? She owes me money.Midna: I don't know, I just think you're so perfect together.Lewa, annoyed: I hate you… Hey, look, her purse thing.*Lewa runs over and sniffs her purse. Sadly, there was no money inside. Instead, he picks up her scent and can now follow it.**Eventually he follows it into the Coliseum town and into a milk bar (Guess Norik wasn't the only one who could open one up). There, he sees Hahli and another female, both looking after a young man who is unconscious.*Gali: Don't worry, I'm sure he'll be just fine and things'll be all right. The doctor should know something.Hahli: You sure? All he did was yell at me. And then he asked me when does he get paid…Gali: Don't worry, he does that to everyone.Midna: This is getting weird. Let's see what the guards are talking about.Guard 6: Yeah… I was given orders to head to Lake Hylia, but I don't wanna.Guard 8: It's too scary to go out there.Guard 7: There might be spiders!Midna: Well, I guess that's where we're heading next.Lewa: But I don't wanna go.Midna: Stop with the whining and get moving. You don't want to be like those poorly trained guards who don't do anything, do you?Lewa: I guess not. All right. But I won't like it.
  21. Actually, in this story Barnes is Barnes. Kopaka is there because I'm used to having Tahu and Kopaka as a team. And it would go against me to break up the team. Unfortunately I can't replace all the Zelda characters since there's just not enough Bionicle characters to give parts to. And you'll see why when I start bringing in some of my Glatorian OC's to fill in some roles. I honestly tried, but some things just can't be done fully.Anyways, Chapter 10, written June 3 of this year. And as you will be able to tell as you read, you'll also get to see a reference to one of my new favorite games my best friend got me into. And one of my favorite characters from said game... DON'T TELL ANYONE!!*It took a while but after a long time of training, but Lewa was eventually able to learn the art of fighting in the fight of who's the heaviest against Mayor Bo. Afterwards, the two met upstairs and Mayor Bo was about to bid Lewa farewell.*Lewa: So the reason why you never let anyone into your house was because you never wanted them to see your super-secret wrestling ring?Mayor: Yeah, something like that. But there's also one more thing. Lewa, before you go, take what in the trunk over there. That's also part of why no one is ever allowed into my house.*Lewa goes over and eager unlocks the trunk.*Lewa: It's a pair of boots.Mayor: Iron boots. I used them to best the Toa of Earth.Lewa: Wait, so you were never the heaviest?Mayor: No… that's part of my deepest shame. I needed those boots to stay anchored to the ground. Otherwise they would have pummeled me into next Tuesday.Lewa: So you used big-heavy shoes to beat those guys. Wow. No wonder you're so ashamed.Mayor: Yeah, I know… But you can use those boots to help you. Luckily, they never realized my ruse, and sure enough I doubt they will ever catch on. Go, and defeat them so you can save the children and find my crazy daughter.Lewa: Don't worry. She owes me money, so I won't let that go.*Lewa began making his way over to New Ta-Metru, when something caught him off guard.*The Postman: HEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEY! !!!!*Lewa, afraid, turned around to see one of the scariest sights he had ever seen. More scary than the Diobaba, more frightening than the Happy Mask Salesman. It was… The Postman.*Lewa: AAAAAAAAHHHHH! !!!The Postman: Oh, there you are, Mr. Lewa. I'd been looking for you for a long time. I have some letters for you.Lewa, scared: Uh… sure. Okay.The Postman: Here you go, Mr. Lewa! There, my job is done. *He then runs away at high speed. Lewa then hides the letters in a small satchel and continued on, trying to get the image of The Postman out of his head.**As Lewa and Epona raced back to New Ta-Metru, trouble was brewing as King Bulblin and his cohorts made the scene. The kids were all playing outside when they made the square. Sadly, Tahu was indisposed and Kopaka was busy trying to calm him down from having a pyromania attack.**King Bulblin was racing towards Beth, who was frozen in fear. Talo ran off, Malo was inside watching, and Colin looked on in fear. But something inside Colin made him get over his fear, and he raced towards Beth, knocking her out of the way as King Bulblin and his Bulbo raced at her. Barnes actually ran outside in time to see King Bulblin holding Colin, unconscious, right above his head. He then looked over to Barnes and raised his mask, making his face visible.*King Bulblin: Hey. How's it going?*Intimidated by his deep and commanding voice, Barnes lowered his mask to cover his face.**King Bulblin then let out a war cry, but was interrupted when he spotted Lewa and Epona coming to the rescue. King Bulblin signaled the others to follow his lead, and they escaped to the Bridge of Eldin, with Lewa and Epona hot on their trail. When the duo got onto the bridge, they were caught off guard when a few Bulblins blocked off the entrance with a wooden gate. It was worse when an archer used a fire arrow to set it ablaze. Lewa looked at the opposite end where King Bulblin was. On that end, the same thing took place, meaning they were both locked in place on the bridge for an epic duel.**Both wasted no time and they engaged in an epic jousting match, in which King Bulblin ultimately lost to his great luck (and I mean luck, he would have lost had King Bulblin not had his mask covering his face again) and he fell off the bridge to his ultimate doom.**Moments after, Lewa found Colin and got him back to the others.*Colin: Lewa?Lewa: Yeah, it's me. Pretty crazy ride back there.Colin: I had this terrible dream! Everything was like a badly animated cartoon! And there was this king who was obsessed with dinner. And you were there, except you had an annoying voice and you were happy about everything.Lewa: What have you been eating before bed?Beth: We're just glad you're okay, Colin.Colin: You're not mad at me, are you?*Beth happily shook her head.*Colin: I think I know what my father meant when he wanted me to be more like you, Lewa.Lewa: Really? How so?Colin: He wanted me to be more brave like you.Lewa: Yeah, I guess that sounds right. Your father's a weird-freak.Colin: I know…Tahu: All right, now since I'm also a doctor, I will take him into the hotel/carnival so that he may rest.Lewa: Yeah, you do that. I have some Onu-Matoran and Toa to deal with.*Lewa starts his way back up the trail, only to meet with Nuparu.*Nuparu: I thought I ran you out of here.Lewa: I am a slow learner.Nuparu: Twice the pride, double the fall. Take this!*Nuparu lunges at Lewa, ready to throw him off again, But Lewa, prepared for his attack and clad with the Iron Boots, is able to counter him, grabbing him by the arms, and then tossing him off the mountain trail.*Lewa: Challenge accepted.*Lewa continued on the mountain trail with little to nothing else happening to him aside from rocks flying out of the volcano now and again… and aside from a moment when a meteor actually fell from the sky. As Lewa looks over at the meteor, there is the sound of a creepy violin playing. Lewa gets closer to the impact sight and the music continues to get scarier.*Meteor: Well, hello there, little boy. Don't be shy. Step right up, I'm a reasonable guy. Don't be frightened by the look in my eye, I'm just your average evil meteor from out of the sky.Lewa: Uh… Okay… And I'm not little. What's your deal?Meteor: Well, I'm just tired and scared of this place. I'm just a big shot of water from outer space. As you can see, the trip has left me tired and drained, so why don't you be a pal, and bring me some BRAINS?Lewa: Okay!Midna: Uh, Lewa… can I have a word with you?Lewa: What?Midna: Are you really sure you want to help a green glowing meteor with one eye and sings catchy tunes? Besides, you're forgetting why we're here in the first place.Lewa: Fine…*Lewa runs over to a random Toa, scares him and makes him create a tall pillar. Lewa then uses it to climb up and into the main chamber.*Lewa: Well, this is it… I'm going in.Midna: Before you go, I want you to know something… From the first day we met, looked at you and thought to myself… "I think you're stupid."*Lewa gulped and went in, faced off against a lot of Matoran and Toa, eyes all on him. They all stared at him. Lewa got his sword and shield ready. Before anyone could react, a voice called out.*Onua: Hold it!*Everyone stopped, and Onua pushed his way through the crowd.*Onua: What brings you here, green one who resembles someone who once fought alongside my ancestor?Lewa: I'm here to fight for my friends' freedom. One on one. Unless the Skrall leader is the real coward!Onua: What?Lewa: Sorry, I was playing up to the moment. I'm here to get into the mines and fix-solve whatever problems are going on so you'll stop being mean to everyone.Onua: Wait, we aren't being mean to anyone.Lewa: Then why wouldn't anyone let me inside? And Tahu said you stopped talking to him.Onua: Was that Nuparu? He's just cranky because he can't find his multi-meter. He gets like that and takes out his angst on everyone. And Tahu wanted to talk to me? Darn. Nuparu needs to learn some manners. He could have ruined our friendship that way.Lewa: So I don't have to fight you?Onua: No, not really. Not unless you want to.Lewa: I'd rather not.Onua: Okay. Well, since you're here to help us, when going into the mines you must beware of our Patriarch, Whenua. He got a hold of some rock thing that turned him evil, so a few of the elders agreed to lock him up and split the key into three. We even enlisted the help of some guy with a funny accent to help us keep out intruders. If you beat him, he'll give you something helpful to return Whenua to his normal state.Lewa: Okay, sounds good to me.*Lewa enters the mines, which are filled with tons of fire and lava and death.*Lewa: Tahu would feel at home here…Midna: Let's got beat this guard guy and get whatever he's got.Lewa: Yeah, it sounds like something cool.*Eventually Lewa enters a large lava pit with a magnetic rock floating in the center. Before he could really react, he was caught off guard by the appearance of a rusty armored foe with red antler and an accent.*Fire Lord: Good to see you again, Preston.Lewa: Who?Fire Lord: Oh, sorry, it's so hot in here I couldn't see for a moment there.Lewa: Why is your speech-talk so funny?Fire Lord: I come from a world below.Lewa: Where is that from?Fire Lord: Gran Pulse.Midna: Stop making Final Fantasy references!Lewa: What?Oerba Yun Fang: Not too bright, are you now? And you're a bit feisty yourself there.Lewa: … Uh…Fang, laughs: Get a hold of yourself now. You've got a job to do.Lewa: Uh, right. Fighting the giant moose man.Fire Lord: You shall not pass!! *He creates fire from his duel fire shooter weapon, intimidating Lewa.*Lewa: This guy is insane.Fang: Don't sweat it, he's just an overgrown Pulsework solider. If it'll make you feel less scared, how about I go ahead and help you out?*Before Lewa could really say anything, Fang gets out her spear and approaches the Fire Lord.*Fire Lord: Ooh hoo hoo. Wasn't expecting you around these parts.Fang: Now don't be getting all cute on me. Let's see if you're more than just a load of talk.*Before the Fire Lord could really react, Fang take a few jabs and swipes at him with her spear.*Fang: On your knees! *Fang takes one last jab at him in the torso, causing him to weaken and stumble over to his knees.*Fire Lord: Ugh…Fang: Right, then. He's all yours. *Fang leaps over the dazed Fire Lord, and kicks him over to a bewildered Lewa. Afterwards, she makes her way over to a chest the Fire Lord was guarding, and sure enough it contained the Hero's Bow.*Lewa: Whoa… *The Fire Lord tried to get back up, but without trying, Lewa just pushed him back over, causing him to fall off the rock and… well, let's just say he's going to be smelling like hot dogs for a long time.*Fang: I think you can handle things from here on out. Good luck out there.Lewa: Wait, why did you assist-help me?Fang: Let's just say me and him had some unfinished business to take care of. *With that, Fang leaves Lewa to the rest of the dungeon.*Midna: Come on, Lewa, and get that bow. There's a switch you need to get so we can leave this room.Lewa: Oh, that's right. Okay. *With that, he takes the Hero's Bow and hits the switch with an arrow, allowing them to progress forward.*
  22. Here is chapter 9, also written in May of this year. Hopefully you'll be able to see how it's slowly finding a balance between Bionicle and Zelda. And also, there's a few references to DOT, so if you haven't read that story, then some instances won't make sense.*While Tahu went on a crazy rampage of burning all in sight (which actually only applied to who those who were turned into spirits due to the twilight), Lewa and Midna continued the search for the bugs, which lead them all over New Ta-Metru. Lewa had to climb up a dangerous volcanic mountain where he encountered the spirits of all the Onu-Matoran and Toa of Earth. Somehow, Lewa was left with an unsettling vibe, as if he had a bad experience with them in a previous lifetime…**After he nabbed another howling stone and got the bugs on the mountain, he set off to finish up the search. The last few bugs were actually in Barnes' house. With that, Lewa broke into the house to finish up the search.*Lewa: Why does it smell like gun-powder?Midna: Beats me. Everyone I've seen here so far is a walking freak show.Lewa: And it's so pitch-dark in here, too.Midna: Stop complaining, whipping boy. Just find the stupid bugs so we can move on.Lewa: Better turn on a light. I'll light this candle.*Somehow, Lewa kept his double-edged torch and he used it to light a candle… which actually turned out to be a stick of dynamite. And to make matters worse, all that gun powder they were smelling? Those were barrels of gunpowder being stored inside!*Midna: Now look what you did!Lewa: Yikes! *As he knocked over the dynamite, the fuse actually went out. However, a spark from the fuse caught onto some loose gunpowder, causing it to quickly ignite and in a matter of seconds caused the whole place to catch ablaze. Seriously, who keeps their house with gunpowder?*Midna: Uh… as romantic as this is… I'm outta here! *Within half a second, Midna was gone and Lewa was by himself.*Lewa: Hello? Midna? Don't leave me here! *As Lewa cries, he frantically tries to find a way out. It took him a while to realize he could dig his way out via a patch of dirt that had been right next to him the whole time. After he finally saw it, he made his way out just in time to watch the fire works.**After the whole place exploded, Midna reappeared to Lewa.*Midna: Hey, what's up?Lewa: Why'd you leave me to get nuke-burned?!Midna: Why'd you set the place on fire?[awkward pause]Lewa: Touche.Midna: Did you even get the bugs?Lewa: Uh…*Luckily for Lewa, the explosion actually took care of the last 3 of them, so he was able to get the remaining tears of light and fill the vessel. With that, Lewa returned to the spring and Eldin's light was restored. With the twilight gone, Lewa is able to return to his Toa self. Eldin then appeared, all shining and glowing. He looked like some weird kind of hawk thing.*Eldin: Hey, what's up?Lewa: Look here, freak-bird thing, I didn't trek-quest all over New Ta-Metru just for a simple "what's up" greeting. Eldin: Calm down, whipping boy.Lewa: *groans* What are you anyway? You and Faron are like these weird creatures.Eldin: The developers were fans of Avatar: The Last Airbender, okay? Now then, I take it you want to take the evil relic that taints this land with darkness.Lewa: Wait, what evil relic?Eldin: The fused shadow.Lewa: The what?Eldin: Surely you know about them. If you spoke to Faron, I'm sure you already have one. What did you think you were collecting this whole time for that imp girl?Lewa: I don't know, she never let me see. I was collecting something for her.Eldin: They're pieces of a stone mask.Lewa: I didn't know they were evil.Eldin: She never told you they were evil?Lewa: I don't know.Eldin: You're such a terrible hero… Just go to the mines where Onu-Metru and New Ta-Metru meet so you can save the Onu-Matoran and Toa from the evil power. Lewa, walking away: Fine, I'll do it. Why do I get the feeling I'm about to relive a bad memory? Hey, are you going to--?Eldin, as he disappears: No, I'm lazy, too.Colin: Lewa?Lewa: Oh, hey, Colin.Talo: Out of me way! *He pushes Colin to the ground and runs to Lewa, Beth and evil baby following behind him.*Lewa: Wow, you guys are just plain mean. Except you, Colin, you're cool.*As Colin runs up to Lewa, Tahu (who's calmed down) comes out, followed by Kopaka and Barnes.*Tahu: So, you are the one who has saved us.Malo, glares: Yes... he is.Tahu: Allow me to introduce myself. I am Tahu, and I own this entire place. I also reside in my Hotel/carnival. And this…*Barnes lifts up his mask and smiles.*Tahu: This is Kopaka. Kopaka: Help me, I'm being held here against my will.Tahu: He's just kidding. Well, that's everyone who's important to me.Barnes: *frowns and puts mask back down.*Tahu: A great evil pervades Metru Nui… It is in need of a hero who can take care of it. Not like the Hero of Time, though. He messed things up quite a lot. Malo: A nightmare.Tahu: And nightmares are everywhere these days. I should know, the spirit of my Grand-dad haunts me in my sleep. Are you some kind of hero?Lewa: Why, yes, I am a Toa-hero.Tahu: Well, so am I, but you don't hear me bragging about it.Lewa: Why don't you do something?Tahu: Uh… I'm the king of doing nothing. It's in my title.Kopaka, sighs: He isn't joking. *He takes out one of Tahu's business cards, which reads as : "Tahu-- Hotel/carnival owner, Wedding planner, Day care specialist, VCR repairman, Doctor, Dog groomer, Lawyer, King of doing nothing about anything evil.*Lewa: I'll be darned.Tahu: Now then, go up and talk to the proud and strong Onu-Matoran people. They're friendly and they like everybody.Lewa: Really? Okay.*One trip up the mountain later…*Nuparu: Stay out of here, freak! *Throws Lewa off the mountain trail.*Lewa: What was that all about? *As Lewa leaves, he runs into Tahu.*Tahu: I'm surprised to see you alive.Lewa: Why, because the psycho-Toa didn't kill me?!Tahu, laughing: I just wanted to see if you'd actually believe me. Man, I can't believe you fell for that! *laughing his head off, but then calms down.*Tahu: But yeah, seriously, they hate everyone. They weren't always like this. I'm good friends with one of the Toa, Onua. But now, he doesn't even want to see my face.Lewa: They weren't always like this?Tahu: No, they weren't. I think this started up recently when they started going all "I hate everyone" on us all. I think it's got to do with the whole evil thing.Lewa: But how do I scale-climb the mountain if they just attack me and shove-throw me off?Tahu: There is only one individual who's ever bested them. See, they like to get into fights that involve who's the heaviest. Sadly, you and I are very light. But this individual was somehow able to beat them at their own game.Lewa: Who is it already?!Tahu: He's the mayor of your home village in Ordon.Lewa: WHAT?! But I hate him so much!!Tahu: Why do you hate him?Lewa: Actually, I don't. But I have to trek-quest all the way over there?!Tahu: Yeah. Pretty much. Lewa: *groans* I hate trek-traveling…*Lewa walks away grumbling about how he hates traveling on foot, when out of nowhere he sees Epona being harassed by some bulbins. Forgetting about going to Ordon, he makes work of them and he tames Epona, calming her down.*Midna: Well, I guess you make a decent wrangler. Now that you have your horse back, let's get going to see this mayor of yours so we can just take care of those metal-heads.Lewa: Yeah, I guess so.*With that, Midna returns to Lewa's shadow, and Lewa goes on a trip back to Ordon.*Mayor: Huh?? Lewa? Is that you?Lewa: Yeah, it's me. Look, I need your help. I have to challenge those guys in Onu-Metru in a fight.Mayor: What? *sighs.* Well, I never thought I'd be saying this, but… let's talk further inside.*Lewa reluctantly leaves Epona and goes into the Mayor's house, a place that no one in the village aside from Hahli and the Mayor himself have actually seen.*Lewa: So this is the mythical house everyone wants to see inside?Mayor: Yes. I don't know why that is. Lewa: Maybe because you don't let anyone in?Mayor: Yeah… So tell me, where is everyone?*Lewa explains to him the story about how he found everyone in New Ta-Metru, about how he was now a chosen hero, and about how he needed to go into the Onu-Metru mines.*Mayor: So, the children are in New Ta-Metru along with Tahu. I'm sure they'll be fine… as long as they don't mention fire around him. What about Hahli? Was she there, too?Lewa: Well…Mayor: Say no more. I can see by your expression… Well, I'm sure she will turn up soon.Lewa: Yeah… Now I need to learn how to take on all of those lunk heads.Mayor: Well, lucky for you, their eyesight isn't really all that good. However, they can hear you pretty well. They're also not all that smart sometimes. Unless you're dealing with Onua, or the patriarch Whenua. They're very sharp. But I will teach you the art of the fight of the heaviest…Lewa: This won't end well, will it?Mayor: No.Lewa: I didn't think so…
  23. 1. When was your favourite point during your stay on BZP?My first stay or my second stay? In my first stay, it was when I met a lot of awesome people and was even called a good writer. I was so young and crazy back then. It especially showed in my writing. I also like how it took me 6 months before I made my first post. I was also very shy.In my second stay... I don't know. It felt kind of weird being on here after 2 years of absence, since so much has changed. I almost felt kind of out of place.2. How long have you been a member of BZP?Since December of 2004. So I've been on here for a while.3. Should that previous question have been the first question?Probably. It makes the flow kind of weird.4. Have you had any long disapperances from BZP? If so, why?Ooh-hoo-hoo-hoo... I'd probably need another post for that. Long story short, I got met with some harassment in 2010, left for a long time after feeling uncomfortable, and returned only so often. I'm back permanently now. So if anyone harasses me for not liking Taylor Swift again, this time I'M NOT GOING ANYWHERE. XD5. Are you as interested in BZP as you used to be?Hmm... not exactly. Not since most of my friends are all gone. It doesn't feel the same anymore.6. Do you feel that BZP is slowly losing its members, or that BZP generally has less activity?I don't know, to be honest. I'd side more with there being less members on here, in reference to how a lot of my friends aren't active on here anymore.7. If Bionicle had not been replaced, do you think that BZP would always remain strong as long as Bionicle was ‘updated‘‘ on a regular basis?It's possible. If Bionicle was still going, then there would still be more Bionicle-orientated activity and debate going on. I remember the Storyline and theories section was always fluttering with debate. It still is, but there was a lot more. Doesn't help with the whole "not updated as much anymore" storyline.8. Have I asked enough questions yet?I could go on all day. I once got asked 100 questions. 9. Do you want a hug?Uh... I found a monkey! *runs away*
  24. I am rather guilty of starting various stories on BZP and never finishing them, either because I start running out of ideas to progress the plot, or I simply lose interest and never continue them. On the plus side, my writing is "small time," compared to my heyday in 2006-2009, so I almost don't think anyone has noticed...
  25. All right, here is chapter 8, originally written in May of this year. So yeah, reviewing the order of the chapters... Chapter 5 was June 2011. Chapter 6 and 7 were December 2011. Chapter 8 is May of this year. Yup. This was the year I was finally able to sit down and re-evaluate a few things, including plot and characters. This will bring in a few of my Bionicle OC's as well as a few of my favorite characters to use.*Now having gotten one of the fused shadows for Midna, Lewa had to go off in search for the second one. Where was it? Anyone's guess, really, although it couldn't hurt to go around all of Metru Nui and see. While searching, Midna explained a little bit about them… So they're these rock things and then they fit with Midna's helmet thingy and they give her some special powers and… Okay, I'm not sure what they really are. Why don't we just skip back to our heroes?*Lewa: So if we go to New Ta-Metru, we are sure to snatch-grab one of those fused shadows!Midna: New Ta-Metru? What happened to the old one?Lewa: Well, about 178 years ago, there was some red pyromaniac fire-spitter who caused the whole thing to be nuke-burned to the ground.*Flashback, 178 years ago (The Dimwit of Time, Chapter 12)*Tahu (DOT): Burn stuff!!!Kopaka (DOT), face palm: Why is it that I am cursed to be like your keeper? Tahu: Beacause you BURN BETTER!! *Tahu sets Kopaka ablaze as he resumes burning the rest of Ta-Metru to the ground, just missing Lewa, the Hero of Time, as he meets Remote who is hiding from the inferno*Kopaka: I can only hope my descendants aren't cursed with this as I am.*Present Day, Twilight Delinquent*Lewa: Long story short, our ancestors just move-shoved it over a little bit to the left.Midna: Okay… nothing wrong with that. *Their conversation is cut short when they approach a very familiar looking door made of twilight.*Lewa, gulps: Well, this is it. Going back in there… without a sweater…Midna: Oh, come on, you're acting like it's going to kill you. It's not the first time you've been in the twilight.Lewa: I know, but it just creep-scares me out of my wits.Midna: Look, how about this? I'll help you in there, nice and slowly.Lewa: Really?Midna: Sure. I'll just pass right through… *Like that, Midna leaves Lewa's shadow and passes through the door. And then without warning, her hair (now a large, scary hand) breaks through the door, grabs Lewa, and pulls him into the twilight as he lets out a horrified scream for mercy.**Not soon after Lewa gets to his feet, he becomes a wolf again and Midna is once again taunting him.*Midna: You know, I kind of like you better this way than your Toa self.Lewa: Stop mocking me.Midna: Hush, whipping boy. Now get moving. *Lewa reluctantly moves forward, fearful of getting another slap from Midna if he disobeyed her. As he goes along, he spots a wooden sword. As he inspects it, he realizes it was the same one he let Talo have before the children all mysteriously vanished for reasons the game developers did not disclose.*Lewa: Hey, I can sniff-search for them using the scent.Midna: Good little doggie. Now hurry up.*After fighting off a few twilight monsters, Lewa makes it to New Ta-Metru, which is unsurprisingly consumed by the twilight. No sooner does he enter, he encounters a spring which houses another light spirit.*Eldin: Oh, hero chosen by the gods--Lewa: You want me to cruise-around all of the Metru, kill some bugs, and restore your light.Eldin: Oh, you already know?Lewa: I guessed. Now give me the vessel so I can go.*So Lewa gets the vessel of light and he makes his way through New Ta-Metru. As he collects a few of the ones he needed, he spies a hotel/fun zone in the distance…**Within the Hotel/fun zone…*Barnes: Oh, that's it man. There's a bunch of monsters out there, man. Game over, man, game over!Tahu: Do not scare the children, Barnes.Kopaka: Yeah. And do you know how long it took me to calm Tahu down? And if you only knew this guy's ancestry…Tahu: Hey, no one is supposed to know that! Besides, you're both scaring the children.Malo: It won't matter, because Karzahni's army is upon us. You will all suffer and I will serve as his right-hand man once he sees my potential. And then you will all be my slaves.Talo: Stop it with the Karzahni stuff, it's weird.Malo: You're only saying that because you fear me.Talo: Go to Karzahni!Malo: Exactly my point.Barnes: Eeek! I saw one of them move, man!Tahu: You're getting on my nerves, so shut it before I nuke you.*As they all argued, Lewa entered the hotel/fun zone.*Lewa: Who are these weird-freaks? I'd hate to have known them in any lifetime.Midna: You got me. But let's listen in on their conversation.Lewa: Why?Midna: Cause it's funny.Kopaka: Keep your temper, Tahu. You didn't gain all this fortune after what your ancestor did only to lose it, remember?Beth: I'm sad!Tahu: Why?Beth: I might never get to see Lewa again.Colin: It'll all be all right. Lewa is coming to save us.Lewa: Wow, they still have faith in me after all this?Midna, unfazed: Wow. Touching. And now I don't care. We still have a problem to deal with, you know?Lewa: We do?*somewhere far away…*Zant: All according to my devilishly diabolic plan. *uncontrollable maniacal laughter**Back in New Ta-Metru…*Lewa: Oh, right, him.Barnes: I don't know who this Lewa guy is, but he sounds important or whatever, man.Tahu: Why does that name sound familiar?Kopaka: Could it be the same guy our ancestors once fought alongside with?Tahu and Kopaka: Nah.Tahu: Well, all I can say is I hope the monsters aren't smart enough to come in through our cellar that can be only activated by lighting the torches.Kopaka: I still think that's a dumb security measure.Tahu: Well, how else am I going to open it? By burning it!Kopaka: Keep your cool, Tahu. Remember old Ta-Metru… remember your ancestor.Tahu: I said to shut up!!Midna: Did you hear that, Lewa?Lewa: Yeah. This guy's got some major family issues.Midna: Yeah, that, too. But we can find the other bugs in the cellar, I bet.Lewa: Why?Midna: Bugs always like dank and dark places.Lewa: But he said we need to burn-light the torches.Tahu: I'll just light this candle and hopefully nothing will lead to the cellar being opened.Lewa: Can they make this any easier?*Without really thinking, Lewa takes a discarded branch (Tahu doesn't really clean up the place or close the windows except for this occasion) and lights both ends on fire to imitate his secret dream of being Darth Maul, and then he lights the torches and the cellar opens up.*Tahu: AAAHH!!! The cellar! It opened up on its own! It's my ancestor! He's trying to tell me something!Kopaka: Tahu… you're scaring me. Please… don't give into your madness.*As Lewa and Midna dash into the cellar, Tahu approaches one of the torches.*Tahu: What's that, Grand-dad? Kopaka: He's lost his mind.Barnes: Can't have something you didn't have.Beth: What's the red guy doing?Malo: He has given into the inferno.Tahu: You say I should embrace my roots? You say I should believe in who I am? I will, Grand-dad, I will!Kopaka: No… No, don't do it.Tahu: For you, I must…Kopaka: Children, get into the cellar!Colin: But what about?--Kopaka: I said get in there! This is 100 times worse!Tahu: Burn stuff!!!!*So the children and Barnes go into the cellar as Tahu goes on a temporary psychopathic moment of power.
