Prologue: The Legend of Mata Nui

View Online

Gathered friends, listen again to our legend of the Bionicle....in the time before time the great spirit descended from heavens, Carrying the ones called the matoran to this island paradise.

They were separate, and without purpose, so the great spirit blessed them with three virtues: Unity, Duty and Destiny. They embraced these gifts, and in their gratitude, they named their island home Mata Nui, after the great spirit himself.

But their happiness was not to last. For Mata Nui's Brother, the Makuta, was jealous of these honors and betrayed him, casting a spell on Mata Nui, who fell into a deep slumber. The Makuta was free to unleash his shadows. And unleash them, he did.

Makuta's power dominated the land, as fields withered away, sunlight grew cold, and ancient values were forgotten.

Still, all was not lost. For legends fortold the coming of 14 heroes, the Toa, who would come to save the matoran and awaken Mata Nui. Great heroes of great power, drawn from the elements themselves.

Time would show that these were not simply legends, as the toa did indeed appear on the shores of Mata Nui one day. Tahu, Toa of Fire. Feri, Toa of Iron. Lewa, Toa of Air. Baria, Toa of Gravity. Gali, Toa of Water. Cerahu, Toa of Psionics. Kopaka, Toa of Ice. Falo, Toa of Magnetism. Onua, Toa of Earth. Deka, Toa of Sonics. Kopaka, Toa of Ice. Bohu, Toa of Plant life. Pohatu, Toa of Stone. Supoka, Toa of Plasma. And Voliku, Toa of Lightning.

14 heroes with one destiny, destined to defeat Makuta and save Mata Nui. But what nobody knew was that fate intended for other heroes from another world to arrive in their world. Heroes destined to aid the toa, though this was something not even Mata Nui himself could have predicted, something Makuta would never have seen coming.

These new heroes have gone to other worlds before. But never before had they faced a threat like Makuta. But they had each other, and were even more dedicated to their unity than the toa, something that would soon become their greatest asset.

This is their story.

Chapter 1: Meeting Tahu

View Online

Our story begins with our heroes pulling up to Canterlot City. Looks like spring break is gonna be a ball.

Mikey is grinning from ear to ear. "Man, I can't wait to visit the Rainbooms for Spring Break! It's not often we go to Canterlot City!"

Donnie nodded. "I remember the Professor telling me that Twilight has something new to show us."

Shinigami scooted up to the front of the Shellraiser. After scooting past April and Karai. "From what I heard from Fluttershy, they've been working on a way to spend spring break somewhere serene, where we all can get back to nature."

Soon they have pulled up to Twilight's house, where the rest of the Rainbooms are waiting for them.

Pinkie runs up to Mikey. "hey guys! Nice to see you guys! In hope you're ready for Spring Break!"

Mikey gave her a high five. "You know it!"

Raph raises his brow. "so what was this about Twilight wanting to get back to nature?"

Rarity stepped up. "Twilight has been tinkering with the portal device with Sunset and Professor Honeycutt. She found a world with a tropical island we could spend Spring break at!"

Casey grinned. "I always wanted to go to a tropical island!"

Pinkie:"Oh, that's just the start! The island has different biomes, so we can do plenty! There's beaches, jungles, a desert, snowy regions we can enjoy, underground caverns, volcanic regions we can take pictures of, and more!"

Rainbow Dash nodded. "Nobody got a good look, but it looks amazing so far! It's the perfect place to relax and get back to nature!"

The turtles are quite intrigued by what the island has to offer and decided that it wouldn't kill anyone to go explore this new world.

Leo smiled. "I suppose we could all use a break from the city and spend time with nature."

Donnie nodded. "yeah. We haven't gotten to do that for a while. Like since Camp Everfree."

Mikey got a confused look on his face. "but like, how do we get there?"

"through the portal." Came a voice from the other room. Everyone turned to see Twilight with Sunset and Fugitoid. By the looks of things, they were already packed with coolers of food and clothes and cameras.

Fugitoid spoke up. "I will be staying here to keep an eye on the house and watch the portal. As much as I'd like to go with you all, somebody has to stay and watch the place."

Mikey grins and jumps through the portal laughing. But as he does , it turns to screams as he's falling.

Raph cries out. "Mikey! " and jumps in after him. Everyone else does the same, but instantly regret it. They all start falling through the portal. As they fall, they become separated into groups as they fall towards the island.

They land on different parts of the island. But when they land, it's always on the shores and beaches.

Twilight groaned as she stood up on the beach. "oooh, where am I? Spike? Where are you?"

"Right here." She heard Spike call out next to her. But when she turned her head, she didn't recognize who she saw. Next to her was a tall, mechanical-looking being, clad in armor. The mask the creature was wearing was intricate, and a purple and green color, while his armor was mostly red, with the topmost parts being purple and green. It looked at her in confusion, then spoke in Spike's voice.

"Who are you?"

Twilight gasped in realization that this creature in fact WAS Spike. "Spike?! What happened to you?!"

Spike looked at himself in confusion, then at Twilight. "Probably the same thing that happened to you!"

Twilight gasped then took a look at herself in the waters on the shore, becoming shocked at what was staring back. In place of her human self was a tall, mechanical-looking creature similar to what Spike had transformed into. Only the mask was different and her armored body was a different color. Her mask was a lavender color, while her armor was a mix of lavender and orange. She felt her body, seeing she was armored from head to toe. The armor seemed to be one with her body, though she could tell that it wasn't all mechanical, but with some organic parts. She could tell because she still had to breathe, and felt a little hungry. "What's going on?! What are we?!"

Spike shrugged his shoulders. "I don't know. But I still think we look cool. As do our weapons. "

Twilight was confused at this, until she noticed the weapon near her. In place of her usual ninja weapon, was a long golden staff with a magenta star on top, similar to her Equestrian counterpart's cutie mark. She noticed Spike had a weapon of his own: a short staff ending in a long blade in the shape of green flames.

Spike then notices another figure on the beach. A tall creature much like them. Only he had a different mask that he was just now putting on. His mask was bright red, as was his armor, with some orange mixed in. After putting on his mask, he seems to have a satisfied look on his face. He then picks up a sword lying next to him. A sword that looks like leaping red flames. As he swings it, sparks of fire flicker in it. He seems satisfied. Until he paused with a look of grim dissatisfaction on his face. He seems angry. And the next moment, he shakes and swings his sword up towards the sky and howls in anguish: "Why.....can't....I.....REMEMBER!!!!!!"

As he does, much to the shock of Twilight and Spike, a column of bright red fire shoots out of his sword, and sparks of flame fall down onto the beach. Twilight and Spike brace themselves for the burning, but to their surprise, they don't feel the heat. And somehow, neither does the red figure.

Their cries of shock alert this creature to their presence. And he begins to walk towards them.


The figure approaches them cautiously, his blade flickering with flame.

Twilight puts her guard up. "Who are you?"

The figure sighs. "So you can talk. That makes things at least a little simpler. My name is Tahu. But.....I don't exactly know much else about myself. I just woke up on this beach after escaping that canister. But I don't have many memories of who I am or where I came from....or what I have to do now. All I know is that my name is Tahu, and I have the power of flames."

Spike steps out from behind Twilight. "well, I suppose maybe the answers you are looking for are somewhere on this island. My name is Spike. And this is Twilight Sparkle."

Twilight looked around. "Tahu, you didn't happen to see others around, did you? We came here with our friends, but we don't know where they are."

Tahu shook his head. "So far you are the only ones I have seen." He turns his head to the volcano in the distance. "Somehow, I feel like we should be going that way if we want answers."

Twilight and Spike looked that way, seeing the volcanic range. They felt a little unsure about going near a place filled with lava.

Twilight was the first to express this. "I don't think going near lava is a good idea."

Tahu had an annoyed look on his face. "If you aren't coming with me, then go somewhere else. Honestly It doesn't matter to me. I need answers to who I am, and I'm gonna get them. So either come with me, or get outta my way."

The mysterious Tahu begins to wander the shores with the duo in hopes of any life signs. And hopefully something not dangerous.

Twilight and Spike begin to notice something. They are surrounded by lava in these fields. But they don't feel the heat.


They eventually head closer to the volcano and come upon something strange: it looks like a village surrounded by lava at the base of the volcano. This volcano was known as the Mangai.

Spike- “oh yeah. A village near a volcano. That’s no way a fire hazard.”

Twilight shushed him. “Not the time to criticize Spike. We need answers.”

“Right.” Spike nodded.

Twilight looked around. “Though it is curious.”

The moment they step into the village, a trap of spiked poles goes off, entrapping them. Then a bunch of figures begin surrounding the three, pointing sharp staves at them in the shape of leaping flames. They are all very short, looking much like Tahu, clad in red, orange and black armor and masks. Leading them is a figure with a yellow golden mask identical to Tahu's, a fierce look in his eyes.

"I think they don't take kindly to visitors." Twilight gulped.

"I hate to see how they get pizza here." Spike was equally afraid.

Tahu begins to raise his sword in retaliation. He's ready for a fight. But before anyone can make a move, a figure appears and halts the others. This one is slightly taller, with a different mask and an elderly look to him. He is carrying a fire staff, and his eyes radiate wisdom.

He stands before Tahu and bows his head. "Greetings, Tahu, Toa of fire. We have been long awaiting you."

His words cause the smaller villagers to put down their weapons and begin cheering.

“I guess you’re pretty famous here, Thai.” Spike whispered.

Tahu looks on in confusion as the villagers cheer that their saviors have come. All while Twilight wonders where the others are.

“Leo.” She whispered to herself.

One thing was sure: the Rainbooms and Turtles were stumbling on something bigger than themselves. But what?

Chapter 2: Lewa and Supoka

View Online

In another part of the island, in a thick, dripping jungle, a bright green figure was perched high in a tree. His strong limbs and armor were the strong green of the leaves. In one hand he carried an axe-like blade, perfect for slicing through thick underbrush or twining foliage. His bright green mask swept back in a streamlined shape perfect for cutting through the air.

Next to him was Rainbow Dash, a cocky grin on her masked face. She had changed much like her friends had. Her body was tehcnoorganic like his and armored, her armor a mix of bright green and cyan, her mask streamlined and bullet-like, cyan in color, except for the top, which was the same rainbow color her hair was. Rainbow markings were also in her joints. Her weapon had changed too: she now carried twin aero slicers, which were currently attacked to her back, acting like wings.

Currently, the two were about to swing from vines in a sort of competition. The green figure grabbed a vine in hand. "This sturdy clingtwiner will do, I expect." he said. "So, think you can quickbeat me so easy, Rainbow Dash?" he asked with a cocky tone. "Remember, no secondthink, just go!"

"Hey! I know what I'm doing!" Rainbow remarked.

With that, He leaped off the tree branch overhanging the canyon. He swung himself halfway across, then let go. Momentum carried him in a graceful arc over and past the gorge. Rainbow Dash did the same, though she landed a little ways behind. The Green figure grinned. "Now that was fun!" he exclaimed. He hadnt been sure how he and Rainbow had been able to make that jump, but now he knew at least one thing: the air was his friend. And apparently, Rainbow's as well.

"Yeah it was!" Rainbow agreed.

He didnt know much else, except tat his name was Lewa. AT least he thought so. He liked the name: it sounded strong and mysterious.

If we’re done showing off.” The two looked to see Karai and Shinigami ahead of them. “Shouldn’t we be going?”

Both Shinigami and Karai had also changed. Karai had silver and green armor, with a mask that showed off her snake fangs. Her weapon had changed to a sword that looked like twin snakes, the blade taking that shape of a fang.

Sinigami had changed to black and purple armor, with a mask that had a cat-like pattern. Her signature hypno ball was now attactched to her arm like a cannon on a tether, and she now had a cape that looked like bat wings.

“Yeah. We still got friends to find.” Shini added.

Lewa grinned. "Have no worryfret, my companions. I'm sure the answers lie further deepwood."

Then, by all means, lead on.” Karai gestured.

Lewa's smile faltered. "I hope I do find answers to the dreams I had. Or is that what they are? Dreams? I hope so. They were dark and chaotic. I dont like to admit it, but it frightened me."

Rainbow raised her brow. “Uh what are you talking about?”

Lewa shook his head. "The hazy dreams I had before I came to this island in that canister. I don't remember much of who I am before, only sightvisions in my head, full of chaos and fear. But also a brightglimmer of hope. "

“Interesting.” Shini pointed out.

Lewa swung to another tree, when he was hit with a flurry of feathers. In his haste, he had accidentally knocked a baby Taku bird out of it's nest. He swung up his hand to catch the falling chick, only to see it flying away. No, it wasnt flying, he noticed. The wind had carried it aloft. He reached up and caught the bird, and gently set it back into it's nest. "Now what kind of Happyluck was that? Or was it?" He murmured.

“That was weird.” Rainbow raised a brow.

Lewa then flung his arms up, causing a gust of wind to blow hard. Thats when he realized. "It was me! I did it! The wind answers to me!!"

“You control the wind?” Asked Karai.

Lewa nodded. "and if my hunch is correct, Rainbow can too."

“Really?” Rainbow perked up.

Lewa nodded. "Try it for yourself, you'll see."

“Okay.” Rainbow positioned herself and began to concentrate.

She then raised up her hands, creating a gust of wind.

“Awesome!” She cheered.

“Impressive.” Shini smiled.

Karai tried doing the same. Only to find something different happen: as she raised her arm, a small plant in front of her suddenly shot out, growing exponetially into a full-grown tree. This shocked everyone.

“That’s new.” She blinked

Shinigami nodded. "IT looks like you on the other hand control plants."

“I bet Wallflower would be jealous.” Rainbow grinned.

“What about you, Shini?” Karai asked.

Shini raised her hands up, and suddenly, everyone started to float away, as well as a few rocks and pebbles She lowered her hands and everyone and everything landed with a thud. Shini looked at her hands in confusion. "Gravity powers?"

“Awesome!” Rainbow squeaked.

Suddnely, They hear rustling in the brush ahead.

“Looks like we’ve been found out!” Karai said as she prepared for battle.

“Good. We get a test run.” Rainbow rubbed her hands.

They prepare to fight, only to clash with two other figures. One is female, wearing yellow armor with black and Dark blue mixed in and a red mask, carrying an iron fan weapon.
Another is a figure green like Lewa, with a different maks, and what appears to be an actual palm tree growing out of his back.

However, they recognize the first one. Despite having a different appearance, they know it's April!

"April!" gasped Rainbow.

"Rainbow? Karai? Shinigami?" April noticed. "Boy am I glad to see you guys."

"Likewise." Karai agreed.

"So who's your friend?" Shini pointed to her companion.

The tall figure with a tree growing out of his back waved politely. "Greetings, travellers. I am Bohu. Just exploring this beautiful island and trying to find out more about myself."

“Bohu and I got acquainted and we agreed to help each other. I’ll try to help him learn what he can and he agreed to help find the others.” April explained.

Lewa somersaulted and landed in front of Bohu and April."Nice to meet you. Any friend of these three is a friend of mine. I am Lewa."

“Same here. I’m April O’Neil.”

Bohu points in the direction Lewa's group was headed. "My senses tell me there's a two villages in that direction."

Karai raised a brow. "How do you know that?"

Bohu smiled."The plants told me."

“You speak… to plants?” Shini pieced together

Bohu nodded. "my power to control plants also lets me speak to them."

“Can you talk to them too, Shini?” Rainbow asked.

“We can figure that out later. Right now I suggest we check these villages and see if we can find the others.” Karai pointed out

They trek further into the jungle, and come across two neighboring villages of a very odd design: one village was built on the ground at the base of the trees, made up of small huts. The second village was made above it, high up in the treetops, near but separate to the village below it.

“Well that looks inviting.” Rainbow said.

“Interesting housing.” Karai mentioned.

“Nothing we’re not used to.” April reminded

The villagers in the treetop village seem to be a lively energetic bunch, while the villagers on the village below seem more like a group of agriculturists.

“Which one should we try first?” Karai wondered.

One of the villagers of the ground village noticed them and excitedly ran up to them. He spoke in an estactic voice.
"Toa Bohu! You've finally come! And Toa Lewa Too! We've been awaiting your arrival!" He exclaimed.


Naturally, everyone was shocked. Karai was the first to speak up. "You e been waiting for them?!"

The villager nodded excitedly. "Yes! Welcome to Bo-Koro! Toa Bohu, please accompany me! You must see Turaga Teliko! And Toa Lewa must go to the village above us, Le-Koro and meet Turaga Matau!"

“Well that’s something.” Shini whispered

Lewa shook his head. "Time for worrythought later. Now is time for some answerfinding."

“You’re right, Lewa. We better get started.” April nodded.

Lewa takes Rainbow Dash, Karai and Shinigami up the trees to LE-Koro, while Bohu and April follow the villager to a hut in Bo-Koro.


Meanwhile, halfway across the island, In a sun-drenched desert fillled with scrap metal, Casey is following another figure. Casey has changed, his hockey mask replaced with another, more intricate one, and his body covered in Grey and Copper armor. He still has his bat and hockey sticks, but they are now made of metal, and his taser is now part of his gauntlet.

The Figure he's with his tall and orange, with an orange mask and armor and two arms clutching two gatling slag guns.

“Man! Is this unbelievably cool!” He grinned.

The figure shakes his head. "I suppose so. I think it would be cooler if I knew why I was here. I just washed up on the beach, run into you, and yet I have no memory of anything except that my name is Supoka and that I have a connection to my power over plasma."

“And I need to find my friends while helping you with that.” Casey added.


Supoka nodded as he trudged through the scrap-filled desert. "Whatever happens, hopefully we both get what we want."

"When it comes to finding friends or helping others, nothing stops Casey Jones!"

Supoka chuckled. "as long as I get to shoot something, I'm not complaining."

"And we get to bash some heads as well." Casey grinned.

As the two trudged through the wasteland, they hear screams of terror and a deep growl. "Someone's in trouble!" Casey gasped.

Supoka charged up his slag shooters. "Then they'll answer to me!" He charged forward. They walked into a clearing that looked like a village built from scrap metal. Small orange and white figures wera running in terror from a large creature. It looked like a giant biomechanical rat with sharp claws and two treads in place of legs.

“Can’t let him have all the fun.” Casey pulled his stick and followed after. “Goongala!”

Supoka begins firing shots of molten plasma from his guns."Yeah! Burn baby, burn!"

"Nice!" Casey said as he wacked the creature with his stick. The creature roared in pain from their combined attacks and began to run away.

“Yeah that’s right you better run!” Casey taunted.

The villagers start cheering. They have white and orange armor and masks like Supoka and are wearing regged and dirty cloth on them like survivalist scarves in a post-apocalyptic setting. Which fits the vilage since it looks like a junk-town like something out of Mad Max.

“Looks like they’ve seen better days.” Casey whispered.

A villager steps up. "Oh, the whole island is in danger. But thats just how we Su-Matoran dress. We are junk-sellers and scrapworkers. We can juryrigg anything from junk and scrap, all in the blazing hot sun!"

"Say no more! Casey Jones at your service!" Casey beamed with pride on his face.

The villagers tilted his head in confusion. "I've never heard of you, sorry. But the legends foretold of Toa Supoka coming to save us!"

Casey just shrugged. "Eh. He's with me." Supoka chuckled at thei remark. "More like you're with me." Casey could only chuckle sheepishly.

The Su-Matoran chuckled. "Come. You must meet the Turaga now."

“And maybe help me find the others.” Casey whispered as he followed.

A taller but still short and elderly-looking figure made it's way through the crowd. "Greetings, Toa Supoka. We have been long awaiting you."
