~Brotherhood Forever~

The BIONICLE Universe is on the verge of collapse! With the Balance of Elements unstable and death spreading all over, the remaining survivors of Spherus Magna invade the human world to destroy the planet as part of the sacrifice. On the human world, six friends must make their farewells but they decided to make a wish to stay together, unknowingly causing havoc to their only home. Now, they must awake their hidden powers with the Element Lords/Gods in order to repel the invasion of the Maze Valley! Time is short and these friends have little to no experience in such battles. Can they survive the coming of another world?

This story is based from my on-going Bionicle Fan-Fic called Brotherhood of the Elements.The story can be read elsewhere since I've wrote the stories during the forum downtime but if you want to read it, PM or comment in the review section and I will send you the link! ;D

PART 1: The InvasionA lone, dark silence swept across the wasted lands. A land of dead, shadows, and pollution was all that was seen. Aside from that, a single, massive fortress stood in its shattered glory. Several birds screeched and quickly departed the structure as the ground began to shake. A single, sadden, and beautiful voice was heard with a string instrument.If anyone were to see this planet, they realized that they would not last for long. The planet of Spherus Magna was once the world of beginnings. Now it is a world of endings. The inhabitants fought for many years without end for a mysterious substance but the liquid took away everything from the people.As more people were killed, everyone lost faith for each other; relationships were crumbled, bonds were broken, promises were lies, and silence was all that was heard.Little hope remains for the world…for there is only one way out.In the distance, Mata Nui saw the fortress making its departure. He knew what was going on and he had very little time to take action. However, before he could act out, a rain of vines barely missed him. He turned to see two massive robotic beings unleashing vines and sharp pebbles.Mata Nui turned to his pet who then transformed into a gigantic bird. The monsters fired their powers but the Great Spirit casted a shield to protect himself, heading towards the fortress. They robots cursed to themselves and vowed revenge.***A lone Skrall walked silently through the dark corridors. She was one of the last beings on the planet for she was a princess. The one whom she loved killed himself and vowed to find a way to bring him back. She finally arrived in the massive chamber where her ally waited.The stranger turned to her and said, "You're here.""Of course I would be," she replied, taking off her hood of the cloak, "The time has come now, for my wish?""Yes. Your dearest wish will be realized," came the reply, "We will arrive soon.""And that world…?" she asked."Yes…once that's done, you and Aghora will live together once more," said Kabrua, "We will arrive now…to Planet Earth."They turned to the moonlight of Luna Magna; the time for the invasion is about to begin…***Planet Earth: May 15, 2421On the other side of Spherus Magna, the world of humanity continued to move forward to the future. No one on the planet felt any signs or dangers about their world. The last of the fears were finally vanquished over 300 years ago after several beliefs were disproven about the "final day".The city of New York and the suburbs around shined as students began to pack up and leave for the day from school. After all, it's now the weekend and the seniors were excited for graduation. However, the lives of six friends will be changed…***Taro Rocko stood alone in the media room, finishing up his latest recording project. This project was for him to perform a 30-minute radio stand up which will be semester grade. Once done, he packed up and walked outside, heading for the central park of the campus. As he walked, a petal from the cherry tree fell down softly and he caught it with his hand.That's odd, he thought, but then again, I've just caught that by coincidence, right?***Allan Kaimar swam his final few laps of his class, performing a new record for the butterfly stroke and the front stroke. Some of the students were amazed at his swimming skills and congratulated him. He went to the locker room to get dressed after he was done talking. He smiled to himself as he thought about the national swimming competition in D.C in the next month. He invited his friends to come with him, but after realizing the truth about the others, his heart was broken.It's really too bad, he thought, I've really wanted them to come with me but I don't understand why the families want to separate their own ways?Once he was dressed up, he walked outside as a petal fell in front of him. He caught it and sighed to himself. Was time really going that fast?***Antonio "Blaze" Fuoco punched the final moves on the boxing against the bag. Like Allan, he was preparing for a competition for nationals. Once he was done, he put the equipment away in the closet. As he walked out, a cherry petal floated its way in from the outside and he caught it.Wasn't there a legend that if one was to catch a petal, they make a wish, he thought.Suddenly, he heard a strange voice singing. It was a soft, sad tone with a string instrument in the background. At first he thought it was from the band room, but then he realized that the band room was on the other side of the campus.Where's that singing coming from, he thought, it's not the band students or the chorus!He walked out off the room, not noticing a ball of fire floating outside of the window.***In the library, Salvo Damek stood in line with a pile of books. They were books about Norwegian Heritage and some vocabulary dictionaries. He was born in America like the other boys and he studied Norwegian for three years. He dreams of going to Norway someday soon once he graduates and to continue his studies up there.By the time it was his turn, he presented his ID card to the librarian. While he waited for the books to be scanned, a petal fell from outside and landed on the counter in front of him. He picked it up and looked at it.A cherry-blossom petal, he thought, but what does this mean?***Dante Greene sat outside by himself on the bench. He was done early with his classes and waited for at least a half hour so far. He closed his eye and thought back about the bad news about being separated with his friends. He wondered on the future of his life.By a strange coincidence, he and the other boys' families decided to move out of the city and to other towns all over the country. Dante and the others were against leaving and begged to their parents about staying but the parents backed them down with the same reasons of "no". Dante remembered how they first met back in Elementary School as well as a reunion at a public library years after being briefly separated.He opened his eyes as a cherry-blossom petal fell in front his him He opened his fist, allowing it to fall on his palm.Maybe…we should make a wish, he thought, we need to make a wish about keeping our friendships together. There's a legend on how to do it but I don't know how.***Maseru Vankan walked out of the school, exhausted and relieved on his archeological studies project. Thanks to the project that he was working on, he was able to obtain knowledge from his father who was a famous archeologist. With special permission, he obtain samples of real "materials" as part of his presentation about the seven wonders of the ancient world.He saw Dante, Allan, Rocko and Blaze in a conversation. Salvo was still not present but he continued to walk towards them. A petal fell onto his hands and he could hear the others discussing about the petals they caught too."Quite a coincidence, no?" he asked, "Could this mean anything perhaps?""I don't think so," replied Dante, "I think we only caught them just for fun.""But aren't the cherry blossoms a sign of importance?" asked Blaze."Who knows," answered Allan.They turned to see Salvo who carried a pile of books in front of him. He almost dropped a couple until Maseru and Rocko came to help him."Isn't that enough for you?" asked Allan."Not when you have to study by Monday," sighed Salvo.The wind around them scattered the cherry petals around. Suddenly, they swirled around them, creating a sense of ere."Okay…this is getting weirder and creepier," said Rocko, "What the heck?""Maybe nature knows how sad we all are about being separated," answered Dante."Don't remind me," replied Rocko, "It's too depressing about our future.""Hey guys, I know what we should do tonight. Let's go out!" said Blaze."But where?" asked Maseru."To downtown of course," replied Blaze, "There's a legend of wishes at the Golden Fountain. Plus there's a food court for dinner as well.""Isn't that the fountain that makes wishes come true, right?" asked Allan."Yeah, they say that a spirit lives in it. And if it hears you making a wish, it gets rid of any obstacles in the way of making the wish come true," said Salvo."But we still have some final exams to prepare for still," said Allan, "However; I guess it's not a bad idea to hang out together now that we have little time left.""Alright then," agreed Dante, "Let's meet at the rapid station by 5 this evening."***Hours LaterThey regrouped at the Underground Metro Station. From there, they took on a subway rapid and began taking the route to downtown. They chatted about their family plans and their plans for their futures. After all, it was a pleasant ride since the weekend has arrived and most people go out during these nights with their friends.Blaze closed his eyes for a moment to think about what he wanted to say when the voice from before was singing again."You guys, can you hear this voice singing?" asked Blaze."What voice?" replied Dante, "There's no one else singing other than the radio.""Back at school, I've heard this strange voice…it was like a young lady singing to a quiet tune and an instrument…" said Blaze."It's probably just your imagination," suggested MaseruBlaze shrugged and the voice stopped singing. He really wanted to know what was going on but perhaps Maseru was right, maybe it was just some song stuck in his head. However, the voice itself was quite unfamiliar to him.They finally arrived at the terminal and despite the crowd, they reached the Golden Fountain and the NYC Plaza where the food court was at. They saw the amazing structure of the fountain; a gigantic structure of the globe with several pins representing major cities around the world. Several people sat nearby the fountain to enjoy the water show. There was a certain spot where people threw coins into the water and making wishes.They walked down towards the area where Blaze took out six pennies and handed them to the others."Well…" said Blaze, "What should we wish for?""I wish…" began Dante, "I wish…we'll be friends forever, no matter what happens!""To keep ourselves together no matter what!" agreed Allan.The other cracked a smile and they also agreed on the wish. Together, they tossed the coins to the fountain and they went into the food line to order their dinners. As they ate, they laugh jokes, sharing memories and recalling stories of their recent events. All seemed so well for them and for the rest of the people around town and the world.Blaze laughed and took a sip of his drink, being careful not to choke himself. He turned to the fountain where he saw a strange ball of fire floating above the water fountain. He shook his head but the fire was still there. Suddenly, he saw clumps of sand, rock, vines, ice, and a portion of the fountain's water swirling around together."What's the matter?" asked Allan."Do you guys see what I'm seeing?" said Blaze.The others turned to the fountain but no one saw the strange phenomenon. Before they could protest, Blaze got up, not looking at his surroundings as he almost bumped into random people."Young man," came a voice in Blaze's head, "Why do you see things that no one else can? Why are you chasing after it? Are you running away from a pain that hurts your friendship?"Blaze wanted to ask who this voice was when he took another step and suddenly, he was in darkness. He was no longer in the café with anyone, just by himself."What…what is this?" he gasped, "Where am I?"He saw a cluster of bubbles floating around. Suddenly, one of them landed on his hands. Blaze gasped at the sight of it as the bubble was holding the earth like a force field."The Earth…" he said, "But why is it in here?"Suddenly, a second sphere floated right in front of it. Before his eyes, the model of Earth began to crack."What's happening!?" he cried out."The future…is up to you," came the voice."Who are you? What do you mean the future?" shouted Blaze."I am someone very important to you…I am one of the many beings of whom you may find as…a friend," replied the voice.The model of Earth exploded as Blaze felt a blast of heat striking his left hand. He opened his eyes and his wrist was strapped with a strange device. Before Blaze could ask, he was back in reality, standing right by the fountain. He turned to the others who were panicking about Dante's disappearance."What happened?" he asked."Dante just vanished here right in front of us!" said Allan, shocked.I hope he's alright, thought Blaze.Salvo began to shiver all over his body. The temperature was only 88 degrees Fahrenheit this evening but he felt like as if winter has suddenly occurred. Something was not right here and the worst is about to happen…***Dante gasped as he was floating in mid air over town. He turned to see the statue of liberty standing on Elis Island. However, he saw a golden-yellow being with a gigantic staff.What…what is this, he thought, who is this person?"You must seek him out if you are to save this world," came a voice inside his head, "No one in your world knows about him. And yet…the future is up to you."Before Dante could ask, he saw something flying rights towards him, a blast of roots and leaves struck his fist, forming a golden strap with a green ovum."This ovum gem is granted to those that have the strength of the heart," continued the voice, "If the gem glows for all eternity…your wish will be realized. But soon…you must face the divine test…and then, the future will be up to you."Dante was back at the café where the others were searching for him. He called out for them and they finally regrouped together."What's going on here?" asked Rocko."I don't know but I think there are more problems ahead," said Dante, "Look at the other people!"They turned to see the people beginning to fade away slowly. Dante turned to the west where he recalled the mysterious figure on the statue of liberty."What's the matter?" asked Allan."Oh…it's nothing, nothing at all," said Dante.There's no way a person could be standing up there right now, right, he thought.Suddenly, the ground began to shake. The boys fell to the ground, holding on to the tables."What's happening!?" shouted Blaze.One of the structures on a nearby tower collapsed, falling towards the boys."Watch out!" shouted Dante as the ovum gem glowed. Blaze's gem began to glow too as a mysterious miracle occurred.***Back at the statue, Mata Nui opened his eyes and sighed to himself. Just a few moments ago he saw one of them…"The deities of Magni Animi arrived…it's that boy and the five others…they're the chosen ones," he muttered.He felt the ground beginning to shake, a sign of the status of Spherus Magna's arrival."No!" he cried out to himself, "It has already begun!"He turned to see some of the towers falling down from the unexpected earthquake. Taking no more hesitation, he raised up his staff, calling upon his magic."People of the Earth please…forgive me," he said as light from the staff glowed, creating a beam towards the sky.***"Rocko! Maseru! Everyone! Are you guys alright?" asked Dante."Yeah, we're okay. But…what was that?" replied Allan as the smoke cleared out."Dante…Blaze, did you see this gigantic fire?" asked Maseru."No…not at all," replied Blaze, confused."What fire?" asked Dante, shrugged."It was some sort of gigantic explosion that protected us from those falling debris," said Rocko."Oh my gosh, look at the people!" gasped Salvo.They turned to see the people fading even more transparent. Allan got up and tried to get an adult to get his attention but the man passed right through him."What just happened?" he gasped, "He walked right through me!""Um…listen guys!" said Dante, "We need to get out of here and head to the statue of liberty!""What do you mean? That's on the other side of this town!" snapped Rocko.Before Dante could answer, the boys saw a ring of light that was flying across the skies. It was coming from the west area of town."That light, we should find out where it came from," said Blaze.As they got up, the people around them finally disappeared from sight. Everything was all silent like a graveyard."Everyone's disappeared!" shouted Maseru.***Mata Nui raised his staff to the skies and shouted, "Shieldara!"The tower of light exploded, creating a ring that stretched for miles and miles from the epicenter, making its way across the world. The power unleashed overwhelmed him as Mata Nui fell to his knees."Ugh…maybe this…bought a little time…but the rest of this…falls…to those boys," he breathed.Mata Nui tried to stay balance on the statue but the weakness of energy slipped his body, falling down to the bay with a splash.***The boys rushed down the streets of the town, there was nobody to be seen."There's nobody left here in the streets!" said Salvo."I think we're the only ones left in the entire city," replied Dante."But that's crazy! Why are we the only ones left here?" asked Allan."A voice told me that I have to complete a divine test," answered Dante, "And that someone is waiting for us at the statue of liberty."Despite the distance between them and the statue, they finally arrived at dusk. They saw the statue glowing for the nightly hours but there was no one to be seen."Where…" began Dante when he saw something on the corner of his eye."What is that?" asked Salvo as he pointed to the figure in the distance."Agh! It's him!" gasped Dante."Dante! What are you saying?" asked Allan, "Are you trying to say that you know this guy?"They rushed up to the yellow figure who was struggling to reach ashore. They dragged the figure to safety while Allan checked his pulse when he realized that this being was almost…robotic."That's impossible, robots are not always this waterproof…and for such a being like this," said Allan, "But he's breathing."Mata Nui opened his eyes and slowly got up to his knees."What has…what has happened?" he asked as he looked at the six boys. Suddenly, Mata Nui turned away as he felt pain inside his head, flashing back at the moments from earlier and to the times of Spherus Magna.Mata Nui turned to see Dante and Blaze standing side by side with the ovum gems."It's you…" said Mata Nui, "The one whom I saw. But both of you…"He got up and took their fists with the gems, saying, "Tell me. Has these gems been activated since you received it?""I…I'm not sure, nothing makes any sense," began Blaze."I'll explain," said Dante, "You see…the six of us made a wish that we would never separate. But now…all of this is happening…people are disappearing, an earthquake, and now it's getting stranger.""I see…" replied the Great Spirit, "That means…they're still being tested…""Tested?" asked Blaze."Hey!" said Allan, "Why not include the rest of us! Dante and Blaze got those gems from the fountain, right? So…what does this mean to us?""We'll understand if you tell us," added Salvo.Mata Nui nodded and said, "Alright, I'll explain…but first, I'll need your names please.""Dante Greene.""Blaze Fuoco.""Allan Kaimar.""Salvo Damek.""Taro Rocko.""Maseru Vankan.""My name is Mata Nui," said the Great Spirit, "It's quite obvious that I'm not from here…but from another world. However…"He stopped suddenly as he saw a portal opening from the skies. At first he thought the time was here but he saw two warriors falling right behind the boys."Mata Nui…" laughed one of the figures, "I can't believe you had to step in for this…but now you must understand…Spherus Magna is getting closer and you're powerless now!""Sarhax," growled Mata Nui, "Branar…""Oh, do forgive us on our improper introductions," laughed the Skrall, "But these boys here must die. I don't know why they've been chosen but only two of them got the gems. They must not awaken the Element Gods!""They'll do perfectly," agreed Sarhax, "We'll kill them all!""Get out of the way!" barked Mata Nui, "And head east!"The boys nodded as they ran off. Mata Nui raised his staff and created a shield of energy to block the attack from Sarhax."Priest!" growled Sarhax, "Why do you waste time protecting those children?"***The boys and Mata Nui ran down the streets. Behind them, cars were tossed into the air, several buildings began to tumble down and the road and streets were splitting open by another earthquake."What kind of evil was that?" shouted Blaze."What do they mean by Element Gods?" asked Dante."That's your divine test," replied Mata Nui, "The test to see if you can obtain the power of the six Element Gods. Each of you carries one in your hearts.""But what has happened to this world? Why are we the only ones left?" asked Salvo."There's not much time to explain," said Mata Nui, "For now, we must find a place to hide."They turned to a side alley where they took their chance to breathe out. They were exhausted from the sudden chase and it would be a matter of time before they would be caught.***Branar and Sarhax used their magic to destroy several buildings, cars, and other materials in the city."Where did they run off to?" snapped Sarhax."We'll split up, if we find them, we'll kill them without questions," said Branar, "The princess's wish must be realized."***Dante peaked around the corner and saw Sarhax making her way towards them. He had to do something to protect his friends. After all, wasn't that their wish?"Obtain me now by opening your heart," echoed the voice.Dante nodded as he closed his eyes. The ovum gem began to glow while Dante concentrated on his wish."What's going on?" asked Allan."I think Dante is trying to awaken Tesarax, the Element God of the Jungle," answered Mata Nui, "But if he does awaken him…"Dante's gem glowed brightly, striking the skies with energy."SINOS!" he shouted as a swirl of green energy covered his body. Sarhax saw the rising of Tesarax as she smirked at the power being unleashed. Finally, a gigantic green, black, and silver robot appeared.***Dante opened his eyes as he found himself inside a pod with two screens that were the eyes of the deity."Welcome Element Lord of Jungle," came the voice of Tesarax, "You and I are now one and together, we shall do battle against our enemies. Remember Dante, the more thought you put into, the stronger your powers will become.""The power of jungle," he muttered silently."Well…" said Sarhax, "It seems that you've obtained some powers here."Sarhax raised both of her hands and said, "Spirits that dwell on Spherus Magna…reveal me your true form! Come forth to me now…and answer my call…my evil emissary!"Dante gasped as Sarhax too was inside a deity of her own. However he promised to defend his friends now that he's obtained Tesarax."I'm coming now Sarhax!" growled Dante."Bring it on!" she replied as they both charged at each other.The five other boys gasped as Dante charged into battle against Sarhax. But Branar was yet to be seen.I have to help Dante, thought Blaze, if he was able to obtain that thing…then am I?"Yes it's true," came the voice, "You and I are one with the power of fire. Open your heart to me and join your friend."Blaze stepped out to the battle and saw Dante getting clawed by Sarhax. The jungle Glatorian laughed and said, "Weaklings like yourself…must die!""SINOS!" shouted Blaze as a wave of fire trailed along, casting him inside a deity. The battle paused as Blaze and Vulcanax arrived."There you guys are," said Branar, inside of his robotic deity, "I was getting tired of searching.""Blaze, is that you?" asked Dante."Yeah, we have to get these guys down!" shouted Blaze.Sarhax and Branar laughed. How two novice human beings inside of two of the legendary deities could could stop them from the invasion?"Sounds like you've learned something about us," said Sarhax, "But you must die!""But why? Why does this world have to suffer your consequences?" snapped Blaze."Because…we…the residents of Spherus Magna have the power to do so," replied Branar, "There's no universe that has the power to resist against our homeland!""We will not let that wish come into fruition," growled Dante as he casted a spell of vines, "Emerald Vine of Skies!"Several vines grabbed Sarhax and Branar but they easily tore the plants and charged up to them. Blaze was locked in combat with Branar while Dante fought off against Sarhax.***"So that's them! Our friends," said Salvo."But if they're so powerful then why did they not try to kill us in the first place?" asked Allan."They wanted to see if anyone in this world was qualified to take the divine test through the power that the six of you now possess," answered Mata Nui, "A battle between deities has begun and it won't be over until one side is destroyed."Before the others could protest, Mata Nui twirled his staff, creating a bubble shield and they floated over town to see the fight.***Dante felt his body was falling apart. The Sarhax Deity moved quite swiftly and she scratched him on his arms and back. Unfortunately, as being on with the deity, whenever a robot got an injury, it affected the user in the same way."It's too fast for me," he said, looking at his bleeding arms, "How are we supposed to win this fight?""Don't lose heart. I am one with you, remember your wish and open your eyes and your fists," replied Tesarax's voice.Nearby, Blaze was having problems against Branar. He was kicked down and punched in the face after trying to burn his enemy down with fire. There had to be another way to attack the Skrall without having to hit him with a fire shield."Remember Blaze, if your spirit and passion burns, I have the power to destroy all evil with fire," said Vulcanax."NOW DIE!" shouted Branar as the Skrall Deity jumped into the air, preparing to kick Blaze down. However, Blaze turned and formed a fist which broke the deity's hand. Branar screamed as his bones on his hand snapped. Blaze took the chance for revenge and smacked down Branar."Focus that anger…the rage against the evil destruction…INTO MY FIST!" chanted Vulcanax."Arrow of Fire!" shouted Blaze as he unleashed a series of arrows aiming at Branar, one of them struck the heart light and Branar screamed. The robot exploded into flames.Sarhax gasped and turned to see her partner down when it was too late. Dante took the chance to unleash a surprise attack of vines, one of which stabbed her heart light. Sarhax groaned and screamed in pain as she too exploded.When the smoke cleared away, the two deities of Tesarax and Vulcanax stood side by side."We did it!" cheered Blaze."Nice work!" said Dante as they bumped fists, "Are you injured?""A little, I got some bruises here and there. And what about you, Dante?" asked Blaze."My back has some bleeding but I'm sure we'll find a way to heal it."Nearby, the other boys cheered for their friends. Finally…was everything safe after all?Suddenly, they heard some a voice singing along with a string instrument playing. It was a low, soft sound. The moon glowed in the sky as nightfall arrived. They heard it right from the statue of liberty."What is that…that singing?" asked Dante."I don't know, but that's the same one I heard earlier today!" replied Blaze."You mean that one from the train?" he asked.Inside the force field, the other boys and Mata Nui heard the voice as well."What is that voice?" asked Allan."The fortress…of the Valley of the Maze…has now arrived," said Mata Nui with a tremble of his hand, "Look!"Before their eyes, the Statue of Liberty glowed with bright light. Electrical and lightning struck the statue, causing it to disappear as a massive fortress appeared in its place. Elis Island disappeared while a new island took its place. Clouds of smoke and ashes flowed into the several blocks nearby.The boys gasped at the sight; the place where it was home to the symbol of freedom was now replaced with a gigantic fortress of fear. With the fortress of Spherus Magna, time was running out for Earth."What is that thing?" asked Blaze."I don't know…" replied Dante, "But we have to get rid of it! Our freedom…our American Freedom is gone!""We can do it, right Vulcanax? We can resist that thing…" said Blaze, "what's wrong? Vulcanax?""I told you before, it's all up to you," replied Vulcanax."Let's do it Dante," said Blaze as he and Dante closed their eyes and prepared their bodies for a massive nova blast. Their bodies glowed brighter and brighter by the moment."This is crazy! What's going on to them?" asked Allan."I think they're going to sacrifice themselves to seal away the fortress!" replied Mata Nui."But what's going to happen to them?" asked Rocko."I do not know. Either they'll destroy the castle or their bodies will be blown up," he answered, "But either way, it's too dangerous for us to be here!""No!" shouted Rocko, "They can't die like this!"He waved his staff and they floated across town, heading east."Don't please!" shouted Maseru, "Our friends are in danger! Where are we going?""The only way you can help them is to summon your own Element Gods," answered Mata Nui, "But you must prepare yourselves first. We cannot stay here.""We have deities too?" asked Salvo."You Salvo have Iconara while Rocko has Roxtarax. And you, Maseru has Ataraun and Allan has Tajunara," said Mata Nui."Iconara," muttered Salvo."Roxtarax," said Rocko."Tajunara," whispered Allan."Ataraun," said Maseru."You boys have to hurry. You are the only ones left here in this world! If not, then this planet will be completely destroyed!" replied Mata Nui."But the others!?" asked Allan.***Back down at the site, the two boys screamed as they unleashed their powers at a gigantic blast. The two elements struck the fortress, trying to destroy it. However the force field protecting the Maze seemed to have repelled against it.Suddenly, out of the flames and vines came a titanic, vampire-ish, winged being. The eyes glowed and the massive beast stood up."What's this?" shouted Blaze, shaken by the sight.The new arrival replied with two gigantic blasts of light, smacking into Dante and Blaze. They screamed in pain as the bright light destroyed their robots, causing two massive explosions across the city.In the skies, the other boys and Mata Nui gasped in horror as their friends were wiped away by the explosions. At this rate…"NO…NO…NO!" shouted Rocko, as he banged his hand on the force field, "DANTE!!!!!! BLAZE!!!!!"***In the rubble of the morning sunlight, Sarhax emerged and saw the massive destruction of the city. There she found Dante unconscious from the blast."Ha…ridiculous! Using all of that power for nothing," she muttered, raising her hand, "But now, Princess Belirax's wish will now come true with this scene of destruction! A pretty smile will be put on the face!"Just as she was about to send an attack on Dante, she stopped as a dark vine wrapped around her waist, knocking her down. Her spell broke away before she could kill Dante.She turned to see her attacker; a Glatorian from the Jungle Tribe like her. However she was not expecting this…"What? Igor!" she snapped, "But? But why? Aghora is your brother!"Igor made no reply, he just simply stared at her with a look of disgust. Sarhax grunted and vanished into the mist. The Glatorian walked up to the unconscious human and said, "Such reckless use of an Element God. You humans need to be careful."Dante made a slight breath. Igor nodded to himself."I thought so," he said, "It's great to see you alright human."Igor walked up to the semi-conscious Dante and took off his cloak. He placed it on top of Dante for some warmth for the chilly morning.He looked to the castle and said, "Kabrua, you moron! This circle of destiny is yet to be turned!"***Not far away, Blaze was also unconscious from the attack. Branar finally found him and readied his sword to behead him. However, an explosive thronax struck his hand. The Skrall yelped in pain and turned to see Ackar who readied another."How dare you try to defy me? You know the plan!" growled Branar."I'll deal with this," said the Glatorian."And why should I trust you?" snapped Branar, "I never cared for anyone's orders but Tuma's and Belirax's!""The princess ordered that you must come to the fortress immediately," replied Ackar, "She sent me here to deliver the message."With a sigh of disgust, the Skrall turned and left. Ackar waited until he disappeared and he walked up to the unconscious human."Why did you waste all of your energy like that?" asked Ackar, "You do realize that Igor and I were in time to save the two of you."Blaze's eyes blinked for a moment but his body was not fully recovered. Ackar ignited a small fire to keep the surrounding area warm."Just keep on hoping, human," he muttered, "And then you'll save this world…with the others."***On the other side of town, the four remaining boys stood at the rail of a bridge while Mata Nui went out to find another safe place for them. Each of them had their heads down, worried that their friends have died from the explosion."Are they…alright?" asked Maseru.A long moment of silence stood between the question and the answer. A warm breeze struck the boys but neither of them wanted the day to arrive."Of course they are," said Rocko, spilling a few tears, "After all we promised to stay together, right? If we part after all of this…I'll never forgive them."Rocko took out a group photo of the six of themselves. All of their memories…now filled with tears of loss. The other boys began to spill a few tears silently and they watched their city as the sun began to rise… Edited by Mega Rayearth

PART 2: The Element GodsRecap of Part 1:Six High School Seniors, Dante Greene, Maseru Vankan, Blaze Fuoco, Allan Kaimar, Salvo Damek, and Taro Rocko made a wish at the Golden Fountain to keep their friendship forever despite the fact that their families are moving away from one another.As they celebrated their Friday night together, a strange phenomenon began to occur as their wish caused a great catastrophe as a parallel world called Spherus Magna. Dante and Blaze received two mysterious gems that contained great powers as well as the fact that if any of the gems glowed, their wish would be realized.Mata Nui, the Great Spirit made preparations in order to stop the invasion, but the power of the princess's wish overrode his magic. All of the people affected by Mata Nui's spell casted everyone to disappear without a trace, leaving the six boys on the planet. Several beings began invading the human world, destroying everything in its path according to a wish from Princess Belirax.The Great Spirit arrived on Earth in order to protect the boys for the great battle on the planet. Dante and Blaze managed to activate their Element Gods and successfully defeated Branar and Sarhax through an all out battle. However, the statue of liberty just disappeared and in its place was the fortress of Spherus Magna, the Valley of the Maze.Dante and Blaze unleashed large amounts of power against but faced defeat against a mysterious, vampire robot whose power was unrivaled. Why does Spherus Magna want to destroy Earth so badly? And what is the secret legend of the Element Gods?*~*~*~*~*~*Story:The morning of the chilly sun struck New York City. Several buildings were smashed down or crumbled during the fight last night. Then, when a mysterious deity appeared, more buildings were obliterated.The group of six boys, each carrying a special friendship of one another has gone down to four. Their comrades were seemingly killed by a massive explosion caused by a strange monster that shed light as a destructive weapon.Igor walked down through the rubble of the city that was close to the fortress. After all, it was perhaps at least 5 miles or so of destruction by radius. The rest of the city was still intact but they wouldn't last for long.He was a Glatorian from Spherus Magna with several other residents. However, he was born into a special status as he and Aghora were the "Brothers of Gods". Once they gained their royalty status, Aghora was given a Dragon of Light Deity while he received the Sword of Sphinxes.Igor finally arrived at the spot where Dante slept. He brought him here to get out of range from the castle but yet nearby in order to see if any of his friends might come. Luckily he saw the events from last night and he and Ackar set out a rescue plan to protect the boys from the blast of light."You have yet to learn the truth," said Igor, "Lord Tesara, one of the six."Dante continued to rest in dreams while Igor turned to the castle with hatred.Someone…must change the course of destiny, thought Igor.***The other four boys and Mata Nui walked down the streets of downtown. It was all abandoned and silence like a ghost town. The Great Spirit left the boys temporally in order to find another hideout. It was from there where they went to the bridge to say a final farewell to their friends."Looks like the skies are about to cry too," said Maseru.The thundering clouds began to dominate the town slowly."If it's true that there's no one left on the planet…" said Salvo, "Then what do they want from us, death?""But look at how Blaze and Dante fought;" said Maseru, "They've really gone at it at them.""But now they're gone," answered Rocko, still wiping his face.Mata Nui turned to the boys and said, "Let's make haste. There's another place for us to hide."They arrived at an abandoned shopping mall with a cafeteria inside along with a balcony that viewed the shoreline of the bay.Salvo decided to take a walk through the mall to reflect on what happened while Allan sat on one of the benches. Maseru and Rocko went to the outside balcony to view the skyline."Life really sucks sometimes," said Rocko as he prepared to take out a small box."I thought you quit," replied Maseru."Only once in a while," reassured Rocko as he lit up when Maseru knocked it out of the way to the bay."What on earth is that for?" snapped Rocko."You need to have good health if we are enlisted to fight!" insisted Maseru, "Besides, that was a promise that you told Dante too right? I'm sure he'll be disappointed with you if you gave up!""And what about you? Are you going to fight that monster?" asked Rocko."I see no reason why not. After all, it was our promise and our wish…and now those monsters better get ready to pay the price," answered Maseru.Inside, Allan rested his head on the table, hearing some commotion outside. Mata Nui slept on the floor with his cloth that he brought with him. Allan had a ton of questions inside his head but he didn't know what to ask first.There's so much I need to know Mata Nui, thought Allan, so this is the final world?He suddenly heard a noise coming from the outside. He walked up and saw a train moving across the rails on the bridge."What?" he asked, confused, "There's no one left in this world? How are the trains moving?"Maseru chuckled to himself and replied, "That's only the AmericaLine2.0.""Oh…" said Allan, embarrassed by the answer, "For a second I was a bit dumbstruck. And where did Salvo run off to?"The others shrugged at the question."Perhaps he's studying or something," answered Rocko."He's always such a nerd!" said Allan, annoyed."Hey! He spent time with all of us too for the last few years you know," replied Maseru, "Why do you insult him?""I'm not…it's just that…he's been awfully quiet lately," answered Allan, "I can feel that there's something deep down within him."***Salvo walked down the hallways of the mall, reflecting on the events from last night. He and the others saw a painful battle between Dante and Blaze against two of the invaders and a fortress appeared from this 'other world'.Those boys really fought bravely for us, I wonder if I have to take matters into my own hands too and fight like them, he thought.He found himself at the kitchen area of a different café. However, he felt awfully cold again like last night. Suddenly, he felt a heart beat coming from somewhere."Do you have a dream…that is so strong…" came the voice, "It feels like it could break your heart?"Salvo gasped at the voice as he realized that it could only be one thing…"Iconara…is that you?" he asked."Reveal to me…your wish," came the reply.Salvo touched the freezer door and instantly, his hand became frozen with ice. Then the ice exploded as a golden strap with an opal gem unveiled."It's the gem!" said Salvo, "I've got it too now."Salvo opened the freezer door and found frozen breakfast meals. He took them out to warm up, hoping that his generosity will warm up the others.***"Man I'm starving," said Allan, "Our dinners were interrupted; now there's no one that can serve meals…""I'm back!" shouted Salvo.The others turned to see the Norwegian Boy carrying a tray of breakfast burritos, hash browns, sausages, and cans of juice."Wow, you're pretty good," said Rocko."Nah, I just took them from the freezer," he replied, "I thought this could give us some energy for the day. We'll have to figure out what to do next."He served them one by one but when he got to Allan, he stopped as the other boy gave a weird look."Why are you wearing a glove?" asked Allan.Salvo gasped and took a step back. The lightning and thunder struck the skies."Salvo!" shouted Allan, "Don't tell me!"Allan knocked down the trays and grabbed Salvo's wrist. From there, the answer was on the hand; the opal gem.***Salvo walked outside by himself, looking at his wrist with the gem. He recalled on the long argument between him and Allan."Salvo! How could you do that? Didn't you see what happened to Blaze and Dante!" snapped Allan."I do remember…and that's why…" began Salvo."So you tried to hide it…well I knew it! You were always silent around us, hiding precious secrets!" he replied."But I'm going to find them, dead or alive! Mata Nui was right about us…we have these powers within our hearts!" argued Salvo, "And since when did I keep secrets from all of you?""Allan, please relax," said Maseru."How on earth am I supposed to relax? Now he's going to die too by that monster if he doesn't get killed by those invaders!" snapped Allan.Allan took a few deep breaths and continued, "I said that back in Elementary School…that whatever secrets we have…we share. I've always said that and we agreed upon it! In this case…let's just drop it. Sorry."Allan walked away from the others and moved to a different table. Maseru and Rocko walked back outside while Salvo left the facility.Now, Salvo arrived on the AmericaLine2.0 as an autopilot train approached. From there, he stepped inside and thought to himself.***High above the towers, two figures saw the train departing from the area of where one of the boys walked onto. Upon discovering that their allies were defeated by two novices, they vowed revenge.Gelu turned to Kiina and said, "I'm taking the runaway train.""And what about the others in the building?" she asked, "Should I make haste and kill them?""Do as you wish. We just have to eliminate the potential of the Element Gods, and if those other two are still alive…Great Beings I will slay them personally," replied the Ice Glatorian."You sound pretty gruesome friend," smirked Kiina."Trust me. As much as seem friendly, I tend to have a cold-blood heart like my people," he replied, "Now let's go!"***Dante got up finally after having a nightmare about the past. He seemed to have recalled some boys picking on Blaze and that he and the others neglected their assistance."A memory?" he asked silently.He suddenly realized that he was blanketed with a cloak. He turned to see a warrior figure who walked up to him with a regretful yet angry face."Where…where am I?" asked Dante."I must ask you," replied Igor, "Why did you awaken Tesarax?""I…I vowed to protect my friends, that's why!" he answered, "We swore together by a wish that we'd be friends forever no matter what happens!""So you used the power of the deity and fought side by side. And you were willing to sacrifice your own life in the process? Foolish," said Igor."That's a lie! I was chosen!" snapped Dante, "You have to believe me. Mata Nui said…"But before he could finish, he was in a different dimension; an endless cavern with tunnels all around. He saw the figure in the caves too in the distance."If you TRULY are the chosen one, then you know how to get out of this labyrinth. Awake to yourself and reevaluate your heart," said Igor."Wait! Stop!" shouted Dante, "Let me out of this place! I have to help them!"But there was no reply. Dante slumped down to his knees and broke down into tears silently.***Blaze woke up and saw a small fire heating the area. At first he thought that this wasteland was the land of the dead but realized that he was still alive."Thank the heavens…but this is a nightmare," he muttered.He turned to the ovum gem and tried to activate it, "Vulcanax! I need the power of Fire by my side!""It won't work," came a voice.Blaze turned to see a red-orange figure with a gigantic fire sword. On his other hand carried some sort of a shooting device."Call it as many times but Vulcanax will not answer," replied the figure."Who are you? And what do you know about my power!" snapped Blaze."Be thankful that I was your rescuer…however I could have left you fried by that light from before. However, I know because I saw your heart. But now that you've destroyed that heart, Vulcanax will not answer…until you realize your destiny," came the answer.Ackar aimed his flame sword at Blaze and fired a blast. Blaze narrowly dodged it and fell to the ground."Challenge me and if you win, Vulcanax will awaken once more," said Ackar.Blaze looked up at Ackar with anger, vowing that he will resume his deity to protect his friends.***Back at the mall, Allan, Maseru and Rocko decided to sleep. However, Maseru was not feeling to well as his legs felt like there was sand all over his blood stream.He woke up but found himself in a world of desert. Maseru looked around and saw an entity of sand appearing right before him."Are you…a deity?" asked Maseru."I see that my sands have reached your body," came the answer.Before Maseru's eyes, a patch of sand swirled around his fist, forming the amber crystal and the golden wrist band."Open your heart to me in a place of memories…and we'll do battle together," said Ataraun.Maseru woke up with a gasp and checked his fist. Sure enough, he too obtained the ovum gem. He quickly got up and left, not noticing that Allan saw his gem. Rocko got up and yawned when he saw Allan in a stunned mood."What's the matter?" asked Rocko, "Where's Maseru? Did he?""Yes," answered Allan, "And just go if you also obtained it.""What is your problem Allan?" snapped Rocko, "Has any water drained off of your ears?""Just get out of here now!" growled Allan. Rocko got up and slammed his chair to the side, leaving with disgust.Just as Allan put his head back down, he felt a cold hand on his shoulder. It was Mata Nui who finally had enough of the arguments."Mata…Nui," gasped Allan."Why did you treat your friends like that?" asked Mata Nui, "You do realize that it will make your enemies stronger.""So what? Dante and Blaze are dead! Now those guys too will be finished!" he replied, "I guess that I'll just have to die alone.""Are you afraid to be alone?" came an ancient yet young voice.Allan gasped at the voice in his head but he shook it off."That does it! You had friends who tried to understand you and yet you hid your conceit and vanity!" continued the voice."How did you…?" began Allan."Reveal your true heart to me now…if you wish to make the future of happiness!" said the voice.Allan stared out to the bay, stunned at the voice that he was hearing. Mata Nui could tell that Tajunara was communicating to Allan.Suddenly, a room in the mall exploded with bubbles that dissolved everything in its path. Mata Nui looked up and saw the culprit behind this mess. The figure from above smiled wickedly as more bubbles flooded the mini-shopping centers. It would be a few minutes before those two will die by the acidity of the bubbles.***Rocko walked out of the mall, not noticing what was happening and turned towards the bay area. The Valley of the Maze had a drawbridge that connected there to a certain point down the shoreline.I'll see what's going on and maybe I'll be able to destroy it inside out, he thought.Knowing that this would probably be suicidal, at least once he gets killed, he'd be able to meet Dante and Blaze once more in the afterlife."To death to where you are," he muttered as he began his suicidal mission.***Maseru walked down on the bridge, heading back to the downtown section of the city. He was in the moment of figuring out the location of Ataraun but was distracted as he saw the train passing by. He continued to make his way down the streets until he made through a clearing where he saw an abandoned Elementary school with a playground and sand.Sand, he thought, is that where the deity is at?He took a second look and realized that this was the elementary school where he and the others went.All of the memories, he thought, it feels like it was only yesterday…He heard a loud bang from behind. He turned to see more buildings crumbling. He realized that there were more invaders coming this way.Just as he was about to walk onto the pile of sand, he saw savage beasts roaming his way. They were tan-armored beings with tentacle like helmets. To his surprise, they weren't speaking at all, could they be savages without the language?Without waiting to hesitate, he stepped into a pile of sand and could feel the protection of the element. The beasts stopped at their tracks and watched as the strange being rose into height."SINOS!" shouted Maseru as he could hear Ataraun's voice.The Vorox watched as their foe was clad inside a deity of sand. Maseru opened his eyes and found himself inside a pod with the screens showing the outside. Then he gasped as the Vorox grouped together and morphed into a monstrous being."Maseru, these monsters here are called Vorox," said Ataraun, "They were once civilized beings but half of the population went savage while the other stayed original. However, the original bred were killed by their savage cousins. Fight with your heart and your fists and you'll be able to survive this encounter.""I must fight my destiny," replied Maseru, "As much as I hate to hurt anyone or damage anything…Dry Sands of Desert!"His spell unleashed an explosion of sand that multiplied from the sand box, spraying all over the monster's eyes. The monster hissed and punched the other deity, knocking Maseru down. The Egyptian-American was about to puke at the pain in his stomach.This isn't over, he thought, I can't give up! But my stomach...***Blaze jumped over another fire ball, nearly injuring himself in the process. Ackar stared at him with sadness and anger at the same time."Why must you do this to me if you're the one who saved me!?" snapped Blaze."You should realize why you used Vulcanax so carelessly!" replied Ackar, "The Element Gods are not one to mess around with!""But I was chosen!" replied the human, "I was chosen because we wished to be friends forever and I promised to be a true friend to them! They're the ones who helped me back in Elementary School!"***Flashback: 10 Years Ago…Antonio ("Blaze") sat on the swings, thinking to himself. He was glad to go out for recess. However, he was worried that the bullies nearby would find him. For weeks, they mocked him about random things such as his hair and his "respect" for everyone and how the teachers enjoy his company.He got off and decided to go for the monkey bars where Allan and Dante were hanging out."Excuse me," said Blaze, "Is anyone using this?""No. You want to go on it?" asked Allan."Yes please. I love using the monkey bars," laughed Antonio."Hey Antonio!" said a voice.He turned to see his arch enemy along with his gang. Allan and Dante rushed up next to Antonio for support. However, Blaze was really nervous."Decided to make new friends here eh?" asked the bully, "You three look like a trio of losers."Growling, Blaze kicked the gravel at them. Before he could run, the leader grabbed him by the shirt and said, "What was that for? Huh?"Dante and Allan kicked the bully's legs, forcing him to drop Blaze."You guys better watch out next time!" said the bully, "There'll be ten of us against you three!"They turned and laughed while they ran off. Allan looked at the boys with distaste but shook his head. He turned to Blaze and Dante where the latter was checking on Blaze's injuries."Are you alright?" asked Allan."I'll be fine," said Blaze, "I've grown used to it.""You can't let them win," replied Dante, "That's why they're bothering you.""I know…but if I fight them, I'll be grounded by my parents and get in trouble here at school," answered Blaze.The recess bell rang and it was time to go inside."Meet us again tomorrow," said Allan, "Maybe we can help you out somehow.""Sure," smiled Blaze.***A few days later, Blaze, Allan, and Dante returned to the playground where they saw three other boys being surrounded by the same bullies."What the heck is this?" asked Allan, "Why do they always mock people?""They realize that I'm not here yet," answered Blaze, "It's because of me. They want to hurt me more than them. But either way, I won't let them suffer the same way as I did!""Blaze, wait!" shouted Allan but the other boy was on the move. He charged up behind and kicked his foe down to the ground."Ah...! I was wondering when you were going to come in!" laughed the bully, "Not expecting this eh?"The bully fired a punch at Blaze's face, knocking him down to the gravel.Dante and Allan got Blaze back to his feet but he was spilling a few tears by the punch. His lip was already bleeding from the attack. However, his heart was filled with fire and rage.The other three boys that were questioned, Maseru, Salvo and Rocko were amazed at how Blaze fought bravely. They rushed to join the others and the six stared at their enemy and his gang."We may be younger than you," growled Rocko, "But as six, we are one mighty group compared to yours!"The bullies laughed at the comment. They would never expect the six to get along together. After all, they each had separate personalities of each other."And you think that this newly group of yours will defeat us?" asked the leader."Try us," answered Rocko, "And you'll regret it...moron!"The bullies gasped at the words, since when did a 10 year old could speak like that?"Get out of here!" growled Rocko, "Now!"To their surprise, the bullies left and this time they would never bother them again."Thank you so much," said Blaze, "I'm sorry for this mess here.""Don't worry, I won't let them mock you again," replied Rocko, "And if they do, let the dirty work come to me.""So then...what should we do now?" asked Salvo."Let's get Blaze to the nurse," answered Dante, "And from there...""Let's be friends together," said Blaze, "I'm really thankful for the help. But I don't know what to do in return except for friendship between us.""Yeah, we seemed to be great in numbers. That way if anyone tries to bothers us, we can help each other out," agreed Allan, "But let's try not to keep any secrets from each other…let's be open no matter what!"The others nodded and smiled…this was going to be a new beginning for them…***Present Day:"I wanted us to be friends because…they helped me get out of this mess…but then…I made this mess myself against that deity…right? Is that the reason why you're doing this?" snapped Blaze.Ackar stood silent, noticing that Blaze is close of knowing the answer to the question."When I'm suffering…the others worry about me!" answered Blaze, "And with this new chance that you gave me…I'm going back!"The flames swirled around Blaze as the human realized that his gem was glowing once more."SINOS!" shouted Blaze as Vulcanax finally reawaken to his heart. Blaze took off into the skies, looking for the others.***Back at the mall, Allan gasped as he and Mata Nui were surrounded by a flood of bubbles. One move and they would be incinerated."Go!" shouted Mata Nui, casting a force field on Allan and launching him to the bay. Allan was thrown to the other side of the bay and gasped as the mall collapsed into the bubbles."NO!" he shouted, "I can't live alone like this!"Tajunara…please help me, he thought, I need your assistance! I don't want to lose the people I love…I need to see my friends again so I can put my heart to their trust!Suddenly, the waters began to churn. Allan looked up to see the waters forming a spout. A stream of water struck his hand, creating the blue ovum gem. At the same time, he saw a blue-armored warrior who approached to him with the bubbles."You!" growled Allan, "You killed Mata Nui, didn't you?""Of course I did," replied Kiina, "Oh and do excuse me if I'm a girl.""That's…" he gasped, "But why?""Because I can," replied the Glatorian, "I was gifted with these powers like my brothers and we are here on orders to destroy this planet!""NO! I won't let you!" shouted Allan, "Your allies already killed Blaze and Dante…but you won't get me!"Allan raised his fist as the gem glowed brightly and screamed, "SINOS!"The waters from the bay formed a spout around Allan, transferring his body into the deity of Tajunara. Kiina smiled and took her chance to form inside of her deity.***Salvo gasped as the train suddenly stopped. He realized that there was ice forming on the wheels. He saw a white-armored warrior in the distance."I won't let you get away with this!" he growled."You and the other boys must die!" laughed Gelu, "Sometimes dying is better than to suffer in the real world!""No! I might be a silent person but I will not let you get away with my patience!" snapped Salvo."Then come on out and be a man!" smiled Gelu, "I'll give you a minute to decide. If you stay inside, I'll crush you with my ice from above."Salvo silently snuck out of the train but ran the opposite. Gelu was not surprised and chased after him. Salvo was already running out of breath since he wasn't as strong like Allan or Blaze."Running away?" shouted Gelu, "You can't escape me!"Salvo rushed down the steps of the exit and took down a turn, hoping that his foe lost him. Suddenly, he could feel the temperature falling down. He continued to flee, heading further down the alley but tripped over. The waters that he splashed on was beginning to freeze, trapping him down to the ground.Oh no, he thought, he's nearby."Sorry if I had to stop you from fleeing," said Gelu, "But it turns out that you have no heart."Iconara…I failed you, thought Salvo, I didn't find your location…I can't feel the pulse…"Farewell," said Gelu as he crafted an Ice Axe and prepared to execute Salvo's head. Suddenly, the ovum gem glowed and a barrier of Ice protected the human."What?" snapped the Glatorian, shaken by the surprise attack.Salvo could feel his energy increasing as the ovum gem continued to glow."Call me now, Element Lord of Ice," said Iconara."SINOS!" shouted Salvo as he broke free from the ice bonds. The shattered pieces of ice swirled around the human as he ascended into the air. Once the transformation was completed, the Iconara Deity of Ice landed on the ground.Gelu activated his deity and the two faced off in a new level of conflict.***Rocko opened his eyes and found himself in a cell. He didn't recalled what happened at first but then realized that this was the fortress.That monster, thought Rocko, I snuck in the fortress without any attacks and I was almost at the central chamber when some gas must have knocked me out.The last thing he saw as a tan-armored warrior with robes of white and shades of brown before fell unconscious.Sounds like I'll have to wait, he thought, maybe the others will get their deities…"Why are you giving up?" asked a voice.Rocko gasped as he realized that it was Roxtarax speaking to him."I need to get out, but I have no ovum gem," said Rocko."And what will you do if you receive the gem?" asked the Rock Lord."…I promise…to help my friends!" he answered, "I know that I've broken a few promises in the past…but I will not let anyone of them die like Dante and Blaze!""Good…then you will assist me," replied Roxtarax.The cell walls crumbled down and formed the ovum gem on his fist."SINOS!" shouted Rocko as the cell began to shake. The chains snapped as he merged into the deity of Roxtarax.As he soar, he saw Salvo stuck in a conflict against a white and blue deity. He took the opportunity to create a rock fist and slammed it against Gelu."Rocko!" shouted Salvo, "You're alright? You got Roxtarax!""Yep! And it looks like you awaken Iconara," replied Rocko.Salvo took the chance to freeze Gelu up while Rocko unleashed another fist to smash the deity into pieces, causing an explosion."We better find the others and hope they're alright," said Rocko, "Let's go!"***Dante walked through for what it felt like an eternity. He lost track on how long he walked through this labyrinth and he knew that the others were in great danger."Tesarax…help me, I need to get out of here," said Dante.There was no response. Dante fell to his knees again and cried out, "Help me Tesarax! Are the others alright!?"Suddenly, the floor beneath his feet transformed into a transparent screen, showing him all of the events that were happening outside. Each of the other boys got their deities while they encountered conflicts with other invaders. He saw Rocko and Salvo working together to defeat some white deity while Allan was in the middle of a fight against a blue robot. Maseru was already pinned down by some monstrous foe."The others!" he gasped, "They're fighting too!""Do you see that the element deity you have here…is your friend?" asked the voice.Dante gasped as he realized that it was from the same man from before."If that is so…does your battle have meaning? Or is it senseless? Look to your friends and you will see the answer," continued the voice."It can't be…" said Dante, "What about Blaze?"***Blaze soared through the skies and saw Allan inside Tajunara fighting against another deity. Blaze took a careful aim on a fire blast and managed to form a shield of fire around Allan as Kiina fired another water/bubble blast, creating steam.Allan gasped as he realized that this power was only…"Blaze!" shouted Allan, "Is that you!?""Yeah, attack now!" cried Blaze.Allan punched Kiina down and jumped into the bay. He took the chance to stab her heart light with a stabbing blast of water, causing her deity to explode. However, Kiina knew the outcome of this and used her chance to escape into the bay before the explosion took place.That's impossible, she thought, if only that fire man didn't appear, I would have successfully killed him!"Kiina!" came the voice of Belirax, "I need you at the fortress now!""On my way!" replied the Glatorian.Blaze and Allan took off from the conflict and saw Maseru about to get clawed by some savage beast. The two combined their powers, creating steam around them. Maseru saw this chance to escape and he barely got up and escaped. However, he was not ready to leave the site and decided to sneak upon his foe and punch its heart light, causing an explosion."Blaze! Allan!" shouted Maseru."I'm so glad to see you," said Blaze, "I'm alright now. What about the others?""I don't know," he answered, "But Salvo is certainly out there and…""We're alright now," came a voice.The three deities turned to see two more; Rocko and Salvo. The five grouped up and flew into the skies."This is great that we're together again!" said Salvo, "I was worried about you Blaze.""Thanks!" he replied, "But…where's Dante?"The others stopped and realized that they were missing him."Oh no…" said Allan, "He must have not survived!""Wait…he has to be out here," replied Maseru, "We can't give up now.""But Mata Nui was killed by an explosion after he sent me out of the danger," answered Allan.They arrived at the other side of the town, not far from the fortress."He has to be around here if he's alive," said Blaze, "I'm sure of it."Suddenly, the ground began to shake. The skies looked like as if they're about to rip open or something."What's going on!?" shouted Salvo.The skies were filled with lightning and it struck several buildings, destroying them into pieces."The world…" trembled Blaze, "It's continuing to fall apart!"***Inside the fortress, Kabrua looked at Kiina, Sarhax, and Branar. Gelu was reported dead thanks to two of their enemies and Ackar was nowhere to be seen. As of Igor…"I am disappointed," said Kabrua, "You failed to defeat the boys and now all six of the deities have risen. However, as much as I want to execute you, I was given orders by Belirax that all of you stay confined until we hit the next phase of the plan.""And what about Igor? Why isn't that old man killed yet?" asked Branar."Because…he's the brother of Aghora in case if you've forgotten, he'll be our use of bait soon," replied the Alpha Vorox.Kabrua casted his magic at them, creating chains. He walked out and could feel the Earth tremble."My princess's wish will be realized," said Kabrua, "Everything will begin now!"***The boys gasped as two monstrous deities appeared by the fortress. They were using their blasts of light to incinerate more of the buildings. The boys tried to escape but it was too late. One of monsters spotted them and they fired a massive blast of light at them. They managed to dodge it but the monsters were heading right towards them."Arrow of fire!" shouted Blaze."Desert Sand of Storms!" chanted Maseru."Water Spout!" cried Allan.The three powers combined into one and smacked down one of the deities. However, it got back up like it was no attack and the other deity casted an illusion with multiple robots."Oh great!" growled Rocko, "DANTE!!""The others cried out for Dante's name…hoping that he was still around.***Inside the cavern, Dante saw the boys fighting for their lives against these two monstrous deities"My friends…" said Dante, "You're doing this…for me!"His eyes began to spill a few tears, realizing the entire truth, "I understand now…when I'm suffering…the others suffer too and that's why we're friends…that's why we're friends!"Finally, his ovum gem began to glow. Dante realized that Tesarax was finally reawakening."The gem is glowing…Tesarax!" he said.***Back in reality, the five boys fought off several of the decoys but the original robots were blending in with the crowd."This is impossible," said Allan, "We'll never be able to repel off of this.""We can't give up," replied Blaze, "This world depends on us!""We have to keep our hope for the future," agreed Maseru.They stood side by side, staring at the army of decoys. They knew that if they don't succeed, then this world will fall to destruction.In the dark skies…an evil laughter was heard, echoing the entire planet with fear, terror, and hatred.To Be Continued...

PART 3: Final Farewell...Flashback: Spherus MagnaThe sunrise of a new day was filled with the richest fruits of nature. A beautiful voice was heard all over the planet…through the oceans of Aqua Magna to the forests of Bota Magna and even the desert of Bara Magna. Everyone lived in a state of peace and the divine protection was intact.Princess Belirax sang while dancing all along the fields in Bota Magna. She would come to this spot everyday and sing a morning tune to bring life onto the planet. Even though she was part of the Skrall species, she was born with an unusual ability to communicate with the deceased who allowed her to bring forth the balance between the two worlds of life and death.Lord Aghora from New Atero was walking in the woods alone, enjoying the musical voice he was hearing. He too took great walks in the morning to enjoy the plentiful resources that Spherus Magna received with. He was always curious to know who sang such a beautiful tune every morning and he was desperate to find out.He stepped out of the forest and saw someone dancing in the winds. He realized that the person there was singing all of this time. He walked up the hill to take a closer look and was shocked by the discovery. Belirax stopped singing and turned to see him staring at her with appreciation.Belirax walked around Aghora and resumed her singing. He immediately wanted to hold her hand and stay together but he recalled that Belirax was a Skrall and it was a taboo to fall in love with someone outside of the species. However, he believed that there had to be some hope in order to bring out a stronger bond between the Glatorian and the Skrall.Unfortunately, this would begin an era that would shatter the lives of everyone…***The next several weeks after this encounter brought plagues across the planet. The balance of nature broke down and a mysterious substance was leaking onto the surface, turning the beautiful greens into nothing but rock and mud."Citizens of Spherus Magna who were protected by the spirits…was now peoples' sins that brought along to this land? If that is so…then I shall comply with the ancient covenant on behalf of the Glatorian," said Aghora.His brother Igor heard of this and replied, "Why are you taking full responsibility like that? The people here need your wisdom!""No…t'was I that I committed the crime. I feel in love with the Princess of Albaya…Belirax," he answered."And you're going to kill yourself because of that!? The legend is trying to fool you and doom us all!" snapped Igor."You know the laws of the land, do you not?" asked Aghora, "No…you don't. Then thou shall be exiled from here!"Aghora unleashed his wave of magic at Igor, teleporting him to the wastelands of Bara Magna. One of the servants walked up to him and reported that the ceremony was prepared."Very well," said Aghora, "Gather my Golden Sword of Light and once I go into passing, I want my deity killed too with my blood stained on the sword.""Yes your highness," replied the servant and he rushed off.Aghora walked up to the balcony of the Maze Fortress and looked at the barren landscape. All of this…for only one thing he wanted.***Igor opened his eyes and found himself in the wastelands. His arm was injured by some sharp rocks. Luckily Aghora didn't know much of the Black Spike Mountains or for certain he would have died there.He got up and realized that the skies were beginning to darken. He began to run, using his sword as a guide to return to the fortress.You stupid, he thought, you think that this is a duty of a high priest!?Finally, he could see the fortress in the far distance. Hopefully the event didn't start yet.***Aghora arrived at the sacrifice where he recognized several of his friends, servants and his guests from Albaya and Neora. Kabrua and Starax were by the altar, waiting for him.He walked up the stairs and received the sword from Kabrua. He walked around the altar and looked to the darkening skies. He closed his eyes and turned the point of his sword towards his chest. From there, he stabbed himself as quickly as possible, falling down to the ground. Before his eyes closed permanently, he gave a slim smile of hope for everyone.Finally, Igor arrived at the scene and was nearly out of breath. He gasped as he saw his brother, dead by the hand of fate."My brother!" he shouted.***By the time the mess was cleaned up, Igor walked down alone towards the barren forest of the Great Jungle. He saw a red glow in the distance and recognized the being ahead."You're here…" said Annona, "Your brother passed away, did he not?""Yes," replied Igor, "Are they ready?""As promised," she answered, "The Element Gods are all ready for their masters in that parallel world."Igor turned around as he heard a distant roar from the clearing. He assumed that Aghora's deity has died too as a result of the owner's death."I've fulfilled my destiny," said Annona, "Now I must depart from this land."Before Igor could ask more, the monstrous being vanished, never to be seen again. Igor vowed to keep his brother's name in honor and knew that those chosen ones in the parallel world had to know the truth of the legend before they make the similar mistakes.***Without a proper rule to help the people, the citizens of New Atero were savagely led by Kabrua who decided to help Belirax secretly revive her lost love one. However, there were plans that had to be accomplished. Kabrua sent his Vorox to ransack Albaya and to decimate the Great Beings.From there, only a few survivors remained on Spherus Magna as a result of this madness…and the time for the invasion of Earth was about to begin…***Present Time: May 17, 2421The five boys inside their deities were surrounded by countless illusions. They fought off one by one but more came in to replace."This is horrible!" shouted Blaze, "Are you guys alright?""Yeah we're fine," replied Allan, "But I'm worried about the rest of us.""Don't worry about me," said Blaze, "Dante would only laugh at us if we gave up now."The dark clouds in the skies swirled around, unleashing several lightning bolts. The bolts destroyed several of the illusions but a few struck the boys. They screamed in pain as they could feel the evil energy."If this keeps up we'll…" said Rocko, trying to keep standing.Suddenly, an explosion of green energy rose from behind. The monsters looked at the green column with wonder and curiosity."My friends!" shouted the voice of Dante, "Don't give up! Don't give up!"The other boys gasped as they realized that their companion was still alive after all of this mess."It's Dante!" said Blaze."Oh joyful heavens, it's Dante!" cried Allan, excited and relieved.The column exploded with the Tesarax Deity, staring at the monsters with revenge. The sight of his friends strengthened his heart with relief."Tesarax has reawakened…he has come to answer our prayers," said Dante."We will not be destroyed…as long as hope shines in your heart. The one thing that strengthens that hope…the very hope that which will save you is…" chanted Tesarax."Yes," agreed Dante, "That's right; I know what I must do now!""Dante!" shouted the other boys, "You're alright!"One of the monsters fired dark energy. Dante and Tesarax repelled it with the newly restored energy, creating a shield around his allies."Everyone! Are you ready?" shouted Dante, "Emerald Vine of Skies!""Water Dragon!" shouted Allan, casting his water attack."Dry Sands of Desert!" cried Maseru, creating a wind of sandstorms."Rockslide of Spikes!" chanted Rocko, slamming his fist to the ground."Ice Breaker!" shouted Salvo, unleashing an explosion of ice."Arrow of Fire!" cried Blaze, creating a massive fire stream.The six elements swirled around the monsters, creating a series of explosions. The two original deities fell apart and then exploded moments after.The six Element Gods stood side by side, knowing that the battle is far from over. However, the boys decided to find Mata Nui whether he's alive or dead. The Element Gods casted the humans back to the ground and they rushed off towards the rubble of the mall.***Kabrua hissed at the events that occurred."It seems that my magic won't do completely," he growled.He walked inside and went down towards a vast chamber of the fortress. The winds growled with hunger and vengeance. The Alpha Vorox opened the door and saw the Dragon Deity that once belonged to Aghora. The dragon itself growled and started at the arrival."Your powers…they can only assist the princess into reviving your master," said Kabrua.***"He's around here, I know it!" said Allan, filled with grief."I'm sure he did something to protect himself," replied Dante."We have to believe in him! He's the only person we can trust," answered Rocko.They searched around through the rubble, looking for the Great Spirit. The rubble here was from the result of Kiina's attack earlier. Allan recalled the story to Dante and Blaze, explaining what happened while they went missing."Everyone!" shouted Rocko.Rocko saw Mata Nui buried in rubble but was still alive. The Great Spirit was coughing for a few moments. Rocko and Dante used their powers to free him while Allan fetched water with his power."Thanks," said Mata Nui as he took a sip, "That's much better.""You'll need to rest," replied Allan."No," answered the Great Spirit, "I have to tell you everything."The boys looked at Mata Nui with confusion and shock, what did he mean by everything?"Everything…was brought down thanks to our arrogance," said Mata Nui, "In the time before time, our world of Spherus Magna was gifted with the richest fruits of nature. The world itself was divided into various Elements based on your powers. The world was protected by the spirits of various tribes.""Tribes?" asked Allan.Mata Nui nodded and continued, "However, the balance of nature began to break down and the world was falling into destruction. In order to prevent it, the inhabitants preformed an ancient covenant; by taking the life of the High Priest Aghora."He suddenly stopped and asked, "Dante…Blaze, how did you survive the blast?""Some being with a green cloak," said Dante."A red-orange figure who tried to kill me," answered Blaze."Ackar…Igor…I'm very surprised," replied Mata Nui, "I'd never expected them…at least for Ackar. I knew Igor was against of this mess…but Ackar?""Who are they?" asked Salvo."Igor is one of the best swordsman of our world but never looks for a fight," answered Mata Nui, "And Ackar was one of the personal body guards of Aghora."He continued on the story, "At the ceremony, the high priest sacrificed his life, and made a wish that cannot be fulfilled by any means. This wish…was put into the hearts of everyone. We should have never depended on the divine protection of the Elements…because love between one tribe to another was prohibited. We should have realized that fate but we made our wish to the cloud of darkness…and turned our backs on what could save us. That is why we were punished."Mata Nui took a breath and said, "No one suspected that Belirax, Princess of the Skrall and Rock Tribe fell in love with the High Priest Aghora of the Glatorian in New Atero.""So you're saying that people died for the princess?" asked Rocko."The Land of Legends…the Bionicle Universe," gasped Maseru, realizing on the connection."Now her dream will be realized if our Earth is destroyed," said Dante.The boys stood there in silence, shocked by the full truth. None of them expected that such a wish would cause so much pain to others.***At the fortress, Igor walked in and saw Kiina struggling to be freed. The others were asleep on the chains, knowing that they would die eventually."Please! Let me out!" she cried.Igor stared at her with skeptical, knowing that she was on Kabrua's side. However the tone in her voice was different."Come with me," he replied as he used his power to free her. Kiina and Igor escaped the fortress and stood outside by the bay."You were fooled by the legend and the promises, weren't you?" he asked."Yes. That's why I lost my deity in the fight. As I escaped the explosion, I realized something about these waters as I swam in the bay," she replied."It was not meant for you and the others to simply gain power with the spirits of Spherus Magna…the truth is…you're only a part of a sacrifice that Kabrua is yet to make to fulfill the Princess's dream," said Igor."If that's the truth, then why were we chosen Igor?" she asked.Igor did not reply on the answer but instead said, "Go find the boys and make sure they're safe with Mata Nui. Do nothing to them."***Kiina stood hidden behind the rubble, hearing the conversation between the boys and Mata Nui. She heard the boys gasping at the truth of the legends.Crazy isn't it, she thought, now they know too."Um…Mata Nui," said Dante, "Can we meet with the princess?"The other boys especially Rocko looked at him as if he was crazy."I've tried to attempt the fortress but I was almost killed," replied Rocko."But still, someone with such a voice, I'd never imagine that it would hurt people so much," said Dante."That's impossible," answered Mata Nui, "The fortress is heavily protected by the evil magic."Suddenly, the ground began to shake, knocking the boys off balance."What's going on?" shouted Maseru.In the distance, the clouds began to swirl, the skies looked like as if they were screaming. Dark lightning cracked the skies as the electricity opened the gate of darkness. Finally, a massive robotic deity floated down."It's a deity!" said Allan."That's the one from before!" gasped Blaze, "That one that wiped Dante and I away!"The other boys gasped as they recognized the arrival."It can't be!" snapped Mata Nui, stunned, "This is impossible!""What's wrong Mata Nui?" asked Salvo."That deity should have been dead! It's Aghora's Deity!" said the Great Spirit.***In the distance, Igor growled to himself as he saw the arrival as well. He vowed revenge against the culprit who set this stage up."So that's it," said Igor, clutching his fists.He saw Kiina arriving towards him, panicked at the sight."That's….oh Great Beings help us," gasped Kiina."Yes…it's my brother's deity," replied Igor, "Let us go."***"Ready? Let's fight!" said Dante.The others nodded in agreement but Mata Nui was shocked to hear such confidence."Don't do it! Aghora's Deity has powers that are unrivaled. It'll tear you all apart!" he protested."But this fight isn't over as long as that deity is here," said Allan."We have no other choice," agreed Salvo."We'll show the princess the truth of her wish," said Rocko.They rushed off, leaving Mata Nui in fear. They arrived at a clearing where the deity floated in the skies. It saw the six boys and raised its hand, unleashing dark energy against the boys. They struggled in pain as the electrical bolts struck around them. Before their eyes, they were teleported away."NO!" shouted Mata Nui, "It…can't be. Could all of this be done by his doing?"The robot eyes' blinked and the entity vanished into the mists. Mata Nui fell to his knees and trembled on the boys, worried that this will all be over.***Floating in darkness, the six boys were in the midst of shadows, all of them were in slumber by the power against them. Suddenly, they could feel themselves on a dark, polished floor. Rocko opened his eyes and recognized this place."Where are we?" asked Dante, getting up."This…this is the castle!" gasped Rocko, "I saw this chamber before I was dragged into the cell."The others got up and found themselves in a massive cavern with tunnels and mazes around them."Yes, you're right," came a voice.They turned to see a royal figure who wore tan-ish robe and purple designs. However, the helmet forced Maseru to recognize the shape from Ataraun.A Vorox, he thought."This is our fortress," said Kabrua, "The very place where it begins our power."The boys raised up their fists to prepare combat but the Vorox shook his head, stating, "Your deities cannot be summoned in here.""What?" they gasped in shock."And now if…you indulge me…please," said the Vorox as he lifted a crystal.The crystal glowed and the powers of the boys were drained away from the gems. The five elements struck the crystal and formed a sphere inside."Our powers!" gasped Blaze."You took them!" growled Allan.Kabura looked at the crystal and replied, "Isn't it beautiful? Perhaps more beautiful than a simple human or a Glatorian…""You're a Vorox…Kabrua you must be!" snapped Dante as he tried to protect his intact gem.Kabura nodded and replied, "I am. And I see your power has resisted my crystal."Dante's gem began to glow as he cried out, "No! What are you doing? What's happening!"The final gem exploded with jungle energy, swirling around the Vorox as the savage laughed."Now I have…all six of them in the palm of my hand," laughed Kabrua.The final element blended in with the five others and the six powers transformed into a model of Planet Earth. Blazed gasped at the sight as he recalled holding the model of Earth in his hands from earlier before he obtained the gem.Suddenly, the crystal began to crack, unleashing blasts of light around. Kabrua tried to figure out what was wrong when the crystal exploded, unleashing a scream. The floor beneath the boys' feet showed the planet of Spherus Magna and blasts of light encased them.***Dante opened his eyes and found himself on the grasslands. He saw someone dancing up on higher ground and realized that it was the princess.Is this…Spherus Magna before the chaos, he thought.He turned to see Aghora who walked up to her and enjoyed her song. Suddenly, the scene changed as he saw the destruction of the land as well as the priest's death.However, he then saw a scene that Mata Nui didn't mentioned. He saw Kabrua sending armies of Vorox destroying towns and claiming the Maze Valley Fortress from the Great Beings. Finally, he saw Princess Belirax talking to Kabrua about something but the Vorox used his magic on her. Dante gasped the truth of what he saw.No! It can't be…she's living in an illusion…a thought that there's a way to revive Aghora, he thought, that way…her heart…won't be broken.He found himself back in the chamber with the five others around him."What's the matter?" asked Salvo."I think I saw Princess Belirax, was that real?" said Dante."I saw it too," replied Allan, "But whatever that monster did to her…he's trying to use her as bait!""But why? Why does our world have to be sacrificed because of one person's wishes?" asked Salvo.Rocko turned to the Vorox and said, "You call yourself a god? All you do is toy with people who are trying to live out their lives in peace! Nobody has that right!""And worse, the one who Belirax loved would be in more pain if he was alive at all," agreed Maseru."All you do is trapping her in an endless nightmare!" snapped Blaze."Enough!" growled Kabrua, "It is my duty to protect her, that's all. Maybe I should end your hateful existence after all!"The walls began to shake. Before their eyes, they saw several spirits surrounding them. All of their eyes were filled with vengeance and hatred."Kill them all! For their no reason to fulfill the princess's wish!" shouted Kabrua.Suddenly, a blast of fire lit up the chamber. The spirits scattered around to see their new opponent. Igor and Ackar jumped into the circle where the boys were at."It's Igor," said Dante."Take hold of me, quickly," ordered Igor.The other boys surrounded the prince as Igor used his power to teleport back outside. They reappeared on a balcony of the fortress."Thanks again," said Dante, relieved.Igor turned away and looked at the land of New York."The problem is what to do now," he replied, "How will you save this world from being attacked by the castle?"The boys turned to see two more figures emerging from the fortress. Allan recognized the blue one from earlier and was ready to fight when Ackar prompt him to relax."So you'll help us?" asked Igor."Yes," replied Kiina, "I've already decided what to do."She turned to Allan who looked at her skeptically."It's alright now," said Kiina, "I didn't kill Mata Nui. Luckily his sorcery has kept him alive.""Mata Nui is alone out there, isn't he?" asked Ackar."He was last somewhere out in the distance," replied Igor, then he saw some of the evil spirits coming, "Watch out!"He took out his Sword of the Sphinxes and fired, "CLAST!"A white blast of energy struck the ghosts away. Dante and Blaze immediately recognized the white energy."That…that light," said Dante."It's the same power from the crimson deity!" said Blaze.Igor turned to the boys and said, "Yes. But now, the time has come."Ackar and Kiina stepped out of the way as Igor raised his sword into the air, unleashing all of his power and fired a gigantic blast of light surrounding the boys."You heroes can save the soul of my brother Aghora, who was tricked ultimately by the hand of fate," said Igor.***The boys woke up and found themselves back in town. Suddenly, the ground began to shake as they saw Aghora's Deity beginning to walk into the streets, destroying everything with its shadow bolts."Let's do this!" shouted Blaze."Wait!" said Salvo, "Where's Dante?"The others turned but their companion was not with them."Not again," growled Rocko."We have to keep going," said Maseru.They nodded as they raised their fists with the gems."SINOS!" they shouted as the five elements blended in their bodies, reforming the five deities. They stood side by side as the Aghora Deity stopped walking."Ready?" asked Blaze, "Arrow of Fire!""Water…Dragon!" shouted Allan."Dry Sands of Desert!" cried Maseru.The three elements blending in, forming a cyclone of Sand, Fire and Water but the other Deity fired its blast of light and they barely dodged the attack.***Dante opened his eyes and saw Igor shocked at his resistance of staying."Tell me," said Igor, "Why did you stayed?""I didn't want you to sacrifice for us, Igor. That is why you were a lot like me," he answered."But the others are in combat now," said Kiina, "They can't survive without you."Suddenly, more spirits emerged. Igor fought off of them while Ackar and Kiina fought off a few as well. Dante stood in position, ready to defend them from the attacks. One of the spirits nearly attacked him when Igor grabbed him out of the way."Ah…Igor," came the voice of Kabrua, "Brother of Aghora…you sure were disappointed with me.""You murderer!" growled Igor, "You set this entire plan up, didn't you? Why this world?""To live a life of eternity," replied the Vorox, "In order to do that, I have to destroy everything."Back at the site, the Aghora Deity Raised its hand and unleashed more shadow blasts. The other boys barely missed them as they hid in some nearby buildings. They had to keep fighting in their robots."That is why I must live on," said Kabrua, "Igor. Do you remember when you got that sword and your brother's deity?""Stop fooling us around Kabrua!" growled Igor as he sliced off some more spirits. However some of them sliced his armor."Wouldn't you want to see Aghora again?" teased Kabrua, "He misses you.""How dare you say his name like that!" shouted Igor but it was too late, a vengeful spirit stabbed through his body. Igor collapsed to his knees."Igor!" shouted Dante, trying to help Igor get back up. Ackar and Kiina rushed in as they fought off more of the spirits."You have to go back now!" said Ackar."What is that friend of yours?" asked Kiina, "The blue one?""Oh, his name is Allan. Allan Kaimar," replied Dante."Tell him that my name is Kiina," she answered.Kiina grabbed Igor's sword and casted the teleportation spell on Dante."Save both of the worlds!" shouted Ackar in the background, "We're counting on you!"***Back in the city, the five deities were badly beaten by the fight. Luckily, neither of them were exploded yet but they were desperate for Dante's return.Aghora's Deity walked through the ruined streets and saw the five of them scattered. However, it was not a problem as it prepared to make a wide range blast.Dante appeared with Tesarax and formed a massive shield of vines to protect himself and the others."My friends! Wake up, I'll buy us time!" he shouted."Dante!" shouted Rocko."Don't do it!" screamed Allan, "He's too strong!"But it was too late; the other deity fired its blast of light, wiping out the six of them as they screamed in pain. A massive explosion of light covered quite a large section of the city. Mata Nui closed his eyes as he feared that the blast would hit him but it didn't. When the light cleared away, the town was encased with smoke.***The six boys woke up and found themselves in the darkness again. They were badly beaten, bruised and bleeding in a few spots. Their clothes were badly torn and their bodies were filled with sweat with blood mixed in."We…are still alive?" asked Maseru, still shaken by the event."I think so…but we have to fight back," said Dante, "We can't lose hope. The world needs us to fight."Allan sighed and said, "It'll all be over…if we lose heart now."Salvo turned to his right and left and replied, "With the destiny that has been revealed to us.""And all of the powers…that we have," said Blaze."The powers…we must…" began Rocko.Suddenly, they saw two spheres of light falling in front of them. One represented Spherus Magna while the other as Earth. The six elements streamed from the planet of the Great Beings to the world of the humans, filling the Earth with life."Our powers…" said Dante, "Are we together as…?""Yes it's true…" came the voice of Vulcanax, "We are all one.""It's Vulcanax!" said Blaze, shocked."You boys can do it!" shouted Tajunara, "You must unite your hearts!""And you must protect this union," added Tesarax, "It holds great power for you.""You will be able to face off Aghora's Deity in our combined form," said Iconara."Our combined form?" asked Salvo, "As one?""Yes…as one whole being, the ultimate power," answered Roxtarax."Go now, Element Lords," said Ataraun, "While there's still time."The boys looked at each other and saw that the gems were beginning glow slowly."As long as we don't get discourage," started Blaze, stretching out his hand with his crystal."And we won't fall now because…" said Dante."We still…have each other," agreed Allan."With unity, duty, and destiny on our side," replied Salvo."Together…" said Rocko."We believe…" began Maseru."…and we are one!" they shouted, extending their hands out. A bright flash of light exploded as they could feel the new energy coursing through them.***Mata Nui was still on the slopes of a hill of rubble. The boys were in the explosion of light earlier and he sensed no sign of life around. Were they dead for good?Suddenly, the skies began to lighten up. Mata Nui opened his eyes and gasped, "What's this?"He watched as the clouds around began to swirl, opening the darken skies came a gigantic robot, perhaps the size of a giant synthesized being. Clearly the new arrival was millions of feet tall and the armor contained the combined elements as one.The Legendary Great Spirit Magni Animi floated down from the skies, with the six powers embodied within with the seventh element of light.On the top balcony of the fortress, Kabrua hissed at the new arrival, "It can't be! That's just a legend!"Aghora's Deity saw the new arrival and fired another laser blast. Magni Animi saw it coming and raised its fist, forming a shield of energy that blocked the attack. However, shockwaves struck all around the battle field.Inside the robot, the boys woke up and found themselves floating in six different areas of the robot. All of them were reenergized inside this new deity."Look it's here, Magni Animi!" said Dante."It is our Earth…" replied Blaze."Our combined form," answered Allan."Well then, let's go defeat our enemy once and for all!" agreed Rocko.They turned to the screen and prepared for the next attack.Aghora's Deity charged up toward them, preparing its fist for a punch. However, Magni Animi unleashed its blow as it punched the heart light of Aghora's Deity. The monster puked out blood, giving the other deity a chance to attack.Magni Animi slammed its fist and fired a massive wavelength of light, forcing the other deity to explode. The deity shattered as a ball of energy erupted."We did it!" cheered Maseru."For now it seems," said Salvo.The Magni Animi robot finally landed to the ground and stared at the castle. The voice started to sing again."Is the princess…crying?" asked Dante."I don't know, it's singing that same tune from before," said Blaze."Belirax! You have to wake up! You're betraying your world!" shouted Rocko, "Please, open your eyes!"The voice continued to sing as Kabrua appeared in mid air in front of the shattered remains of the robot, saying, "Magni Animi's power is just like in the legends that were told. If that is so…then this world will face more terror and more nightmares."Before the boys could react, Kabrua merged himself into Aghora's Deity. The monster roared and stood up at its full height as if there was no damaged to the deity. The boys gasped at the sight as they realized that the battle was not over. It slammed its hands to the ground, unleashing shadow waves at the robot. The boys ached in pain as the darkness tried to choke them.***"What are you doing?" asked Ackar, shocked."Give them this sword…of my brother," said Igor, "It needs to be buried properly with them when they're done.""But why? You're still alright, aren't you?" asked Kiina, "This is your sacred sword!"But Igor stood up and looked to the skies; his body was beginning to fade away."I am happy to live with all of you, my friends. Please…do not make the same mistake as we did…or else you will suffer the same tragedy again like the rest of us," said Igor.Igor's body faded away, sending its soul into the sword. However, the sword has changed into one gigantic melee weapon with new designs that represented the two brothers."Oh…Igor," trembled Ackar.Kiina wanted to cry at the sight but there was no time to spill tears. She turned to see Magni Animi and Aghora's Deity fighting in the distance.***The boys ached in pain as the dark blots struck Magni Animi. At one point, one of the wings was badly damaged during the conflict."It seems that this world is giving the final death cry," said Kabrua, "Just like you all deserve. On Spherus Magna, the nightmares and the poisoned environment is what undermined us…and brought our collapse."Magni Animi fell to its knees as Dante shouted, "No! That's a lie!""Perhaps it is this world that has made me what I have become," growled Kabrua.A voice echoed in Dante's mind, "Dante!"Dante gasped as it was Igor speaking to him, replying, "Yes Igor?"Suddenly, he saw a flash in the sky. It was coming down fast which distracted Kabrua from focusing on the target.A massive sword crashed to the ground, stabbing the earth like it was about to die."What's this?" asked Dante.The massive robot turned to see Ackar who was the one who threw the sword with his strength, "Go on! Stop him! Do it for the world!"Dante sighed and whispered, spilling a silent tear, "Igor is dead…in his name."The Aghora Deity unleashed another attack of shadows but the power of the sword protected the robot from harm. Kabrua looked up in confusion when it realized that the boys were about to use the weapon against him. The deity hissed and soared right towards them."You stupid!" cursed Kabrua."We will use your sword, Igor!" said Dante, "In memory of the ones who we love!"Magni Animi took the sword and raised it at the oncoming deity. The sword extended and opened its blades as the boys shouted, "Unity! Duty! Destiny!"A massive wave of light expelled from the sword, striking Kabrua and the Aghora Deity. Kabrua screamed in pain as the power of light split the deity in half…the remaining light struck the Valley of the Maze, blasting the fortress with the power of light.***Belirax stood alone in the chamber, pondering on what has to be done next. Suddenly, the ceiling began to glow as she heard various voices around the chamber.She's living in an illusion…a thought that there's a way to revive AghoraWhatever that monster did to her…he's trying to use her as baitBut why? Why does our world have to be sacrificed because of one person's wishesAnd worse, the one who Belirax loved would be in more pain if he was alive at allYou call yourself a god? All you do is toy with people who are trying to live out their lives in peace! Nobody has that right!All you do is trapping her in an endless nightmare!Belirax fell to her knees, trembled at what she was hearing. She finally realized on what was happening the entire time."Aghora," she muttered.She stood back up and looked at the ceiling with the truth in her head. The time has come to solve all of this.***Back outside, Aghora's Deity exploded along with Kabrua inside. The boys sighed in relief as the robot dropped to its knees. The fusion separated, sending the six boys back to the ground as humans. Their jewels were cracked with the energy that was used to defeat the deity."Magni Animi…" said Dante."This combined strength gave us new powers…but now that it's destroyed…" replied Maseru."It's gone," muttered Allan.The boys heard laughter in the skies. They turned to see Kabrua alive and uninjured by the attack."You must understand now! If you look at it from the perspective from immortality! Why do you resist?" he asked, "This nightmare will continue until the world is destroyed!"The boys grouped up to each other, panicked on what was about to happen."We can't let him get away!" said Blaze, "We need to keep our hope for the future!""But Tajunara and the others are gone!" argued Allan.Dante closed his eyes and tried to think of a plan, while Kabrua summoned his magic at the boys. Just before he could fire, the voice was singing again. Kabrua gasped as he realized that the tone was not the same as before."The voice…" said Salvo, "It's doing something different.""No!" shouted Kabrua, "It's impossible! It can't be!"He stopped his magic and turned to the fortress."Kabrua! Stop it! You must stop now. We need to start all over again," came the voice."That's Belirax," said Dante, "I think she's finally seen the light!"Before their eyes a massive deity appeared. It was clad in white and black with shades of red. The robot extended his hand, revealing the princess. Belirax opened her eyes and saw the six boys as well as Kabrua."We must begin again?" asked Kabrua, "But how? Why do you wish that? I don't understand. I thought this is what you desired?""Yes…but I did not ask for you to revive my lover. I asked for hope and renewal of our world…that is until you tried to defy me with your magic," said Belirax."I was hoping that you wanted to see Aghora again!" demanded Kabrua, "But now how will you restart?""Let us forgive, believe and hope in our hearts, like the boys of Magni Animi has taught us," she replied, "I won't cause any more pain to this world. Everything is all together as one."Kabrua dropped to his knees and said, "I'm…sorry."Kabrua's body dissolved into the mist, never to be seen again. A warm breeze struck the boys as the dark clouds began to disperse.Back at the fortress, Belirax brought Sarhax and Branar outside where Ackar and Kiina waited. Mata Nui reappeared at the fortress with the threat finally over."Six boys, six of us," said Belirax, "I think we can work together as long as we believe.""The boys of Magni Animi have really taught us," agreed Kiina as she turned to the balcony and saw the six boys in the distance. They rushed over to the deck in order to have a closer look.***Back at the ground, the boy saw the sunlight emerging from the dark clouds. Finally, their destiny was completed."Wow…I don't recall the sun being so bright," said Allan."That's why you saved the world," replied Tajunara's voice."Tajunara," answered Allan, "You're here!""You boys are truly blessed," came the voice of Tesarax."Tesarax," said Dante."Remember you lessons of this time," said the voices of Iconara, Roxtarax and Ataraun. The other boys were amazed at the trio voices."Never doubt our trust," came Vulcanax's voice finally."Ah, Vulcanax," replied Blaze.Suddenly, their devices on their wrists dissolved as six different spheres of light floated away."Thank you," said Mata Nui, "We had lost so much…but now we can rebuild our world.""Thanks," replied Dante."I'm so sorry for the trouble we did," answered Kiina, "But Allan, I won't forget you.""Thanks Kiina," said Allan.Then, before their eyes, the Valley of the Maze began to glow; swirls of light surrounded the fortress slowly."We will do our best," replied Ackar, "For what you have taught us."The boys watched as the fortress of the maze continued to vanish."They're going back now," said Maseru, "Back to their homeland.""So much time has passed as we were together. I mean…I know we had some time to say goodbye but I…" began Allan.Thank you, Igor, thought Dante as he closed his eyes.Finally the maze disappeared as the Statue of Liberty finally returned to its resting place along with Elis Island."Never doubt our trust," echoed the voice of Magni Animi."We won't," said Dante, "Magni Animi, you will always be with us."He turned to his five friends and said, "Come on...let's go."They looked to the bright sky as their world was finally free from the darkness. Their world has finally been saved from the dangers of a parallel world. Despite how much time they have left together, all they needed was encouragement to fulfill their dreams."Come on! Let's go home!" said Blaze.***Epilogue…As the new day dawns on New York, the people that were vanished mysteriously were finally returned and awoken to see their city in ruins. Fortunately, the neighboring cities pitched in helping them rebuild the entire city for the next several months. The news spread for the next several days about the mysterious destruction. But no one knew the exact truth except for our heroes. However, there was no time to discuss about the past…the future is only the way out of the mess.A few days after the foundation of repairing the city, the graduation ceremony was moved from the school to a park that was intact from the mysterious destruction. There, the families of the six boys along with many other friends and families attended. The weather was beautiful with the sun shining the entire world. With graduation at hand and diplomas received, their journey is only the beginning of a new chapter.And so…the next day, the boys reunited for one last time together at the bay by the Statue of Liberty. There, they stood together with their hands together as one for teamwork. The breeze continued to flow gently with ease. They vowed to each other to keep in contact so they would one day have a reunion in the future.Finally, the hour for them to leave has come; they each walked in six different directions, heading to their future...Will they meet again was something uncertain…but they spent the last day together, embracing their memories and keeping them forever in their hearts. The sun continued to shine as the world continued to move on in a new era of peace...~THE END~
