Matsuoka Nui

Hm....well if there was going to be anniversary sets for BIONICLE, I would love to see... the reamining Toa Hagah (or new forms of them if they were to suddenly get Adaptive Armor by Artakha). Vezon sounds like a great idea too! I wouldn't mind seeing him with a fused Kanohi Olmak. Helryx too would be nice...I would say any of the characters that had not got a set form yet. (Helryx, Tuyet, uhhh...a few others that I cannot think of) Again these are just my ideas to throw in.

Interesting, so it appears that we'll have a large wave for the winter sets. I thought maybe there would be a lot for the summer? *shrugs* Again, it's still a bit early to say anything. Thanks Grima, arc, Shakar, and Jetrax99!

As I finally got to see what Onua looked like, I now understand for what is going on. (took me forever to find him back with the leaks) But I think the redesigns are overall not too bad but once we get more photos and when the sets are out, we'll know for sure. Oh and does anyone know the arrangement of the sets for the Winter and Summer of 2015? (Like are the newer leaks just pretty much for Winter Releases?)

I liked the Midak Skyblasters and the Nynrah Ghost Blasters but the Rhotuka Spinners were really epic though. Cordak blasters were "okay" (I like the design but it sometimes hard to make a good shot) and the Thornax is creative though too. I'd say the Midak would be my first choice.

I love like sooo many characters but if I had to narrow it down to categories... Toa: Tahu,Taknauva, Matoro, Hahli Matoran: Macku, Kopeke, Turaga: Nokama, Vakama, Dume (real one), Lhikan Agori: Berix Glatorian: Kiina, Gresh and Ackar Others: Teridax, Mata Nui, Helryx, Tuyet, Axonn, Brutaka, Roodaka aaghhh, too many to love; too hard to pick.

My first set was actually Huki/Hewkii from the Mctoran...but later that year for Christmas I got all Six Toa Mata (oh my gosh how I remember that day...<3333 I remember opening the gift and inside this bin was all six of the Toa Mata and I was screaming, "IT'S THE BIONICLES!" XD man I wasted no time building them.) As for the final set it was the Stars (I got them all at once).

Perhaps maybe they'll launch a countdown or something on the webiste (for the new bionicle.com)? I mean there are a ton of ideas that can go on for this friday's update. I know we had countdowns in the past (like the one for the Barraki?) *look at the other posts* Man I really missed a ton of those jokes while I was gone. XD But the're epic! For a minute I thought funmetal was meant as an error for "fullmetal" XD (oh gosh, there goes my anime side) However, regardless what the surprise is, I am sure it'll be at least more news and info. *shrugs*

Rats! Kardas was taken (like 3 times?) but I LOVE THAT DRAGON!

Not only that but the light-up swords from Inika too were neat! I too would love to see different light up colored eyes!

Well now that I am back from the dead Wow, I have to say that 2015 for Bionicle will be a great year! I wonder what we'll get to see in terms of storyline though. However, it sounds like the sets will be a mixture of old and new parts? (sorry I haven't been on for like years)

Ah, so you're from Italy! Ciao! I was there over the summer for my 21st brithday as part of a tour trip! Sounds like you got some awesome goals ahead! Your MOCs look very unique! I wish you the best of luck in your studies!

Hi, I was once on here as ToaMataNui (and later renamed as Toa Syaoran, Toa Tsubasa, etc.) and I was a huuuuggggee fan of BIONICLE back in the wonderful days. And now that BIONICLE is indeed returning, I have also begun to revive my old self. I was known for writing my crazy adventure stories of Princess Skralla, Averax Magna, Petals in the Pond, Decade, and a few other stories that were written on here and on BZP. After BIONICLE halted in 2010, I was already into other fandoms (mostly anime) in order to fill up the "gap" but again, now that BIONICLE is returning, my childhood spirits are all coming back to me. :) I cannot wait to meet some "very very old" faces as well as some new ones too.

Hi, I was the former ToaMataNui (later as Toa Syaoran, or Tsubasa i don't remember what it was) (lol I can't believe my obession with BIONICLE is rising back) but now I have returned with a new name, new face, new account (since I cannot recover my original). I am excited to revisit this website once more. I'll make a reintroduction (and more detailed) post on the intro forum.

That's a tough decision, I liked almost all of them but if I were to narrow it all down... *Mata Nui (Glatorian Version) *Kiina *Tahu *Takanuva *Matoro *Hahli *Helryx *The Rahaga/Toa Hagah and yet even with this list, it is hard for me to decide still...

There's a "mini" contest on picking a character to become a Great Being on BZP as of current. I guess this means that chapter 4 will be out soon! <3 Hopefully the next TPTB chapter will have interesting stuff with the Purple and Black Entities...

Haha...D-list...xD (long story...behind that unless if you know what the term refers to...) *sigh* I haven't been here for almost...a year? lol, for now, I'm back but I will be out for a while again. Sorry for all of the confusions that I've left behind (from stories that may seemed awkward to artworks that were like...trash?) So I see that this whole website has changed...not only for what's been happening to Bionicle but the rest of this place (anyone want to tell me anything what's been happening?) Anyway enough said...my creativity here last time was a bit eh...but I've been practicing on many things, some were new stories, others on some MOCS and anime/manga stylized artworks Part 1: Arts (Anime/Human Bionicle Related) *Lost Friends (Tera, Oris, and Likus): http://fc06.deviantart.net/fs70/f/2011/051/8/b/lost_friends_of_glatorian_by_gold_ignika-d3a0w31.png *iJungle (Element Lord of Jungle w/ headphones): http://fc08.deviantart.net/fs71/f/2011/043/2/d/ijungle_by_gold_ignika-d39epww.png *Power of the Sand (EL of Sand w/ Bota and Aqua Magna): http://fc01.deviantart.net/fs70/f/2011/044/f/9/power_of_the_sand_by_gold_ignika-d39eqiu.png *Opposing Views Makuta Teridax (Journey's End): http://fc05.deviantart.net/fs71/f/2011/001/b/9/opposing_views__makuta_teridax_by_gold_ignika-d365vef.png *Opposing Views Mata Nui (Journey's End): http://fc05.deviantart.net/fs70/f/2010/362/d/1/opposing_views__mata_nui_by_gold_ignika-d35vesh.png Oh and one more thing...^^ My First set like drawing of Gelu and The Yesterday Quest: http://fc00.deviantart.net/fs70/f/2011/001/c/3/gelu__s_yesterday_quest_by_gold_ignika-d365vpn.png Part 2: MOCs from the Past *Princess Sakari (Daughter of Mata Nui and Skralla): http://fc08.deviantart.net/fs70/f/2011/009/5/5/averax_magna__sakari_by_gold_ignika-d36sbic.jpg *Syarix: http://fc02.deviantart.net/fs70/f/2011/008/0/8/averax_magna__syarix_by_gold_ignika-d36pxf6.jpg *Belirax: http://fc06.deviantart.net/fs71/f/2010/355/3/b/averax_magna__belirax_by_gold_ignika-d35cams.jpg *Garaxial: http://fc06.deviantart.net/fs71/f/2010/355/9/3/averax_magna__garaxial_by_gold_ignika-d35cbse.jpg *Light Garaxial: http://fc08.deviantart.net/fs70/f/2010/355/6/5/averax_magna__light_garaxial_by_gold_ignika-d35cckg.jpg *Agarax: http://fc03.deviantart.net/fs70/f/2010/355/1/5/averax_magna__agarax_by_gold_ignika-d35c9by.jpg

More like "the finale" on my latest story. All stories have to end eventually...anyway, I'm glad that you liked the Bota Magna Mini Arc. As for the title, I probably should change it...however I needed to get this story done asap due to how much time I have left in writing stories at all. Very soon, I do not know if I'll have time to write...

Yeah, I had very little ideas about the Voya Nui- Karda Nui saga so I tried to keep it short, unfortunately they were probably too fast, but I'm glad that you enjoy this. I didn't want to spend too much time having to deal with the old adventures. ;)

Yeah, I thought the beginning (Ch. 1-2 were good but 3 was a "fall down) :( But wait until you read my finale story on deviant art, things will finally reveal itself on this multi-verse crossover. In fact the more you read on, things will get interesting. (depends on the chapter...xD.) As for that bridge scene in Hanshin, sort of, more like the very beginning of the feud "Pre-Tsubasa"...xD There's a reason why I actually crossed over and it's more than just my likings, there's something out there that's causing these "fusions", there are some hints about this object but it's purpose will be seen in my finale. I figured that you liked the awkward situation on the MN Island. That idea came to me when I decided to read those books once more. I realized how much potential they had to use to make alternate universes, so I thought of "a place where the Vahi was destroyed."

This topic contains two points: A voting poll for the title and information about the final story! Okay, as you know, I just finished Decade, and I'm now preparing to release my finale multi-verse fanfic. I have at least three (or four depending how you view things...) titles that I've made. Please help me by voting which one you think sounds the best! Please note that I will NOT release the story here since the BIONICLE universes will collide with other universes, it will be uploaded instead on deviantart. In the meantime, here's the information about this "story finale".... ~~~~~~~~ The unexpected emergency calls for all of the various characters from each world to unite. The entire stories of Skralla, Erax, Sakari and more have finally lead up to this; a Parallel Power that lies in the heart of all universes that comes to life. Why do these many worlds behave so similar? This Grand Finale story will show all of you the heart of the inevitable! Previously: Erax told his adventures to Sakari and Syarix, revealing even the darkest secrets that he kept to himself originally. Just as things were normal, an emergency calls them to head out to Clow Country to meet up with their other selves, Sakura and Syaoran. During Erax's journey, a dangerous power source was revealed, a Golden Orb. What will this simple (but complex) object play in this complex finale? Slowly, many universes around time and space are colliding and forming fusions. What are the benefits and risks for this? How will the people respond? The final secrets are about to be revealed… Characters… *Each of these characters will play a great role throughout the story, along with minor characters that were featured back in PS, AMC, PitP, Decade, (and some from Tsubasa RC and maybe Romeo x Juliet Anime.)

Epilogue: There’s No Place like Home After going through another world, I finally return home. However, I didn’t realize that it was the world where I came from until after a great battle. (Although I was hinted back in the Alternate Bota Magna about my origin, my memory erased that knowledge before I could obtain it) Once I realized that this was home, I was quite relieved, but sad at the same time. Was it perhaps that I missed my people and believing that I should be thankful for what I have? After all, I guess you have to be careful for what you wish for. But what could possibly go wrong now that I’m home? ****** Erax took a deep breath and looked at the sunset. It was already evening and he was finally done with his adventure. He wasn’t so sure that if this tale was the best choice, but he knew that he was able to get it out of his mind at last. “Your choice reflected who you were at first,” said Syarix, “But overtime, you realized how important it is to be thankful. Now that you are home…” “Yes. I swear that I will never leave this place ever again. I guess there’s really no place like home, after all,” answered Erax. Sakari got up and hugged him, saying, “You’ve been through a lot of hardships…and misery. You’ve met many people that probably looked just like us, but were different than who we are in this world.” “Thank you,” he replied, “For believing.” “No problem,” she answered, “We welcome you to stay in the palace as much as you want. You don’t have to live with the villagers…” “I’m alright,” said Erax, “This palace is only for the nobility, and even though I might be connected to your parents, I still want to live in the village.” “It’s not a problem at all,” replied Sakari, “Stay here as much as you need. And…is it alright if I can call you uncle-sama? It’s a title that I use with my parents for ‘mother-sama’ and ‘father-sama’.” “Well…alright, thanks,” he answered, he was about to blush at the term but kept it silently. Just as the three of them smiled, the bells ranged a low tone. Neither of them recognized it right away as the bells that usually rang were much higher than that. “Is something wrong?” said Sakari, nervous at the noise. Before the three could react, they heard some shouts and panics. They peered over the balcony and saw several villagers meeting up with Mata Nui and Skralla. “What’s going on?” asked Syarix. “That doesn’t sound good, from the looks of this,” muttered Erax. “We should find out what’s wrong,” said Sakari. *** The three ran down the stairs, heading to the main entrance. Mata Nui and Skralla were in a conversation with Raanu, Dume, Vakama, Takanuva, Gresh, Kiina, and Tarix. “Mother-sama!” shouted Sakari, “What’s wrong?” Skralla turned to see Sakari and the others, running. “Thank goodness,” she replied, “You must get to your other selves, quickly!” “But what’s--” began Sakari “No time to explain,” answered Skralla, “Mata Nui will take you and Syarix to the island of Kerbax down south.” Island of Kerbax, thought Sakari, but isn’t that a dangerous place? Before Sakari could ask more questions, Mata Nui clasped his hands together; two gigantic wings grew on his back. He raised his right hand into the air, creating a magic circle beneath Sakari’s and Syarix’s feet. The circle began to spin, faster and faster by the moment. “Hang on!” he shouted. Sakari and Syarix held hands, preparing for this unexpected teleportation. Erax took a step back and hesitated about if he wanted to join them. He was sure that Mata Nui and Skralla would say no since he traveled enough, but he wasn’t ready to see his “niece” leave. Before he could ask, they disappeared, along with Mata Nui. “May I ask where they are going?” questioned Erax. “To the Kingdom of Clow,” answered Skralla with a sigh, worried, “But there’s no time. We have to gather all of the Matoran and anyone from the Great Spirit Robot to return.” Skralla turned to the others and said, “Gather as much Matoran, Vortixx, and anyone who belongs to that robot and meet up with Angonce and Heremus. I have sent a message to them and they said that they’ll be waiting by the Bota Waterfalls.” She then turned to Erax and said, “I’m sure you’ve met many people besides me that have that ability to see the future in dreams. I saw a terrible disaster striking the Kingdom of Clow. But your destiny lies here in this kingdom, Erax. You must be prepared for what will come.” Before he could ask, Skralla returned to the palace and went to the observation deck and peaked through the telescope. She saw the Red Star still intact, waiting for its use. It's almost time for him to leave soon, she thought, Mata Nui.... *** Mata Nui, Sakari and Syarix appeared on a small, desolated island that was filled with sharp rocks. There were only a few patches of grass that was safe for them to walk on. He led them to a certain spot on the island and looked at the sky, the star, Solis Magna was setting down for the night; time was running out. “I will be brief on what’s about to happen,” said Mata Nui, “But only once. Afterwards, you must be prepared to return. I do not know if we will succeed in the end, that’s why I depend on both of you to work together with your other selves once more; understood?” Once he explained his instructions to them and his plans, Mata Nui raised his hands to the air, calling upon the Mask of Life and his temporally power of his wings, sending the two through time and space. I pray for your safety, thought Mata Nui as they disappeared. Using his power of the wings, he returned to the palace and met up with Skralla and Erax. “They have…?” she asked. “Yes, they’re heading for Clow,” answered Mata Nui. Then he lowered his voice, “Are you sure that this is a good idea? I’m worried that I’ll make the same mistake.” “You won’t,” replied Skralla, kissing him on the cheek, “Not when I’m here.” “I fear that this might be the end if they don’t…” he began. “Let’s not worry about that,” she answered, “Our daughter was successful before. She will succeed again. It’s just like what Nadeshiko said, place our trust to those children.” “Yes, you’re right,” he agreed, “Now then, let’s get going. There’s not much time left.” Then, the two most powerful beings turned and went down the steps, heading to the village with Erax. The time has come…the end is near…the final choice is about to be made… ~~~ The journey of both worlds is coming to a close in a finale story that will bring about the darkest secrets. Some of them will make you think differently about a few characters after you discover the truth about a few of them…a mysterious power is yet to be told. Be prepared…for the last journey of these two unlikely stories. Unfortunately, they will not be released on here, the last novel will be written on deviantart. Review

Chapter 15: The Path towards Tomorrow Just as I stared at the statue, it summons me into a separate world. However I didn’t realize that this Skralla here was similar to the other Skralla that I will meet when the journey is done. A battle begins to rise though as my allied friends and I return to the village. ****** Space/Time Void Erax stood alone in the shadows; the statue sent him here as a result of being summoned. But for what is he summoned for? He turned to see a black and silvered armored figure that was carrying a small vial. It looked similar to his healing potion but the liquid was green instead of gold. “Take this,” said Skralla, “I had this before I died in the earthquake. It was meant to cure the people of Bota Magna from their curse. Use it carefully for this is the only one.” Then she realized and said, “I see, you’re from another Spherus Magna. But of course you don’t remember, even if were to tell you right now; you used to live in an alternate Spherus Magna where I still lived on and changed the world. If you can cure these people, your chances to return home will increase.” Erax took the vial and looked at it, and then he looked at the Skrall. He wanted to ask more questions but the view changed. *** He woke up and found himself back at the edge of the Northern Frost. The others were with him, worried that he might not have survived. “Let’s go,” said Erax, slowly getting up, “This vial is needed.” *** It was already moonlight in the Village of the Mist. A few Agori were already mutated by the moon into monstrous forms of themselves, terrorizing the innocent villagers. Vas, Meolo and Castra gathered the survivors of the attack, knowing that they would have to leave this place in order to avoid death. “How many were killed?” asked Meolo. “Three more deaths have occurred,” said Castra, “Do you think that those warriors survived?” “I don’t know, but I’ve heard that the Northern Frost has powerful ice storms that will freeze anyone to…” began Vas. The three turned to see the Glatorian returning. Erax carried the vial in his hand and presented it to Vas, “We’ve found this vial which will undo the mutation on the Agori.” Vas took it and opened the cap; he realized that it was the stuff of life, created by Skralla long ago. At last, he thought as he tilts the vial. Meolo slapped the other Agori's face and caught it, without a spill. “Why are you drinking this for yourself?” he snapped, “It’s for the other Agori!” Before their eyes, Vas began to transform. Mata Nui and the others readied their weapons as the Agori elder mutated into a gigantic eight-legged creature. The mutated Vas opened its mouth and spat out several strings of vines at the other Agori and towards the Glatorian. The four warriors jumped out of the way and readied their thornax launchers. “He’s been one of them,” snapped Castra, shocked. She couldn’t believe what was happening to her best friend. “A traitor, more precisely,” growled Meolo. The spider roared, sending the six of them into the bushes. They got up and braced themselves for another attack but Vas changed its mind and headed towards the other survivors, using its power to kill them on contact. “We have to stop him,” said Castra, “Before he kills more of our people.” “The ship,” muttered Ackar, “Could it take us back to Bara Magna?” “What ship?” asked Meolo. “We came here on a gigantic rocket from Bara Magna, that gigantic planet that you see in the sky. Perhaps if we can take the rest of you with us, you can find your lost friends,” suggested Mata Nui. “So you want us to surrender our homes here to risk our lives in the desert? No way! We can’t let our home fall!” snapped Castra. Erax placed his hand on Castra’s shoulder and said, “Listen to us. True that there’s not much resources in Bara Magna, but there are more people out there who are waiting for you. My friends here have told me that the Agori on Bara Magna are wondering about the survivors on the moons here. They want you back.” Castra and Meolo paused and thought for a moment. Could their long lost friends were waiting for them in Bara Magna? “Then tell us what to do,” said Meolo. *** The Glatorian brought the remaining 25 Agori survivors towards the damaged ship. A few of them were able to repair the rocket and add more room for themselves and the Glatorian. Mata Nui and Erax stood on guard while the others were helping the Agori. They finally heard a roar coming from the Dinarios and the Gigantic Spider. “We’ll have to put a distraction,” said Mata Nui, “I’ll fight the Dinarios, can you handle the spider?” “It’s not a problem,” replied Erax. The two split off, distracting the creatures away from the working site. It wasn’t as easy since both of the creatures were interested by the sight of the Agori but the usage of their weapons allowed them to charge away. Erax jumped onto a tree and landed on the spider’s back. The creature used its legs to kick him off, sending him into the dry mud. If I keep running, this monster will kill me, I have to fight back, he thought. Erax heard a loud howl coming from the other monster. He could tell that someone has already won. Sounds like Mata Nui killed the Dinarios, he thought. Finally, the inner voice returned to him, “You must use your tri-sword and combine it with your talon spear from Aeran.” Erax realized what it meant, he remember during the training back in Kenax City, he was given a temporally weapon for use and realized that he forgot to return it. However, if this was needed along with his tri-sword… The jungle warrior jumped into the air; his spear on the left hand, the tri-sword on the right. He merged the two into one and a gigantic combination of the two weapons formed. The spider spat out a ball of vines, but Erax was ready and struck it down in half. The creature spat out a few more but it missed. One of them was about to hit the warrior but Erax batted the ball of vine, hitting the creature’s face. The spider tumbled down, allowing Erax to finish the job… Just as he was able to put a final blow, he saw something that froze him stood; a tear drop was falling from the eyes of the creature as if it accepted his fate. The spider began to transform back into Vas. The Agori slowly woke up as if it was all a dream as the sun was beginning to rise once more. Erax took out his medical vial and spilled a drop of that combined with the antidote from Skralla’s spirit. The two mixtures transformed into a clear substance and fell into Vas’s mouth. Vas reacted a bit violently at first but the effects of the liquid were finally undoing the curse of his monstrous form. The spider and the Agori split into two while the creature shrank in size and disappeared into the bushes. “You…saved me,” said Vas, coughing, “But your sword almost took my life.” “Yes,” replied Erax, “I saw the true Agori within you. You were cursed into this monstrous form and you denied it, why?” Vas was about to cry, “Because, I didn’t want to lose my friends if they found out; they were important to me just as how I was important to them. They’ve trust my leadership for a very long time, even before Bota Magna was separated from the rest of the world. That’s why I was so eager to drink the entire vial, hoping that I would be cured. However you knew the exact amount that I was meant to drink.” “Your friends are leaving this place,” said Erax, “Ackar and the others are repairing the rocket that brought the four of us here. You can use it to return to Bara Magna and reunite with your friends.” *** Erax and Vas returned to the working site where the Agori were bringing some of the equipment from the village. They knew that this was going to be a one-way trip so they decided to bring some of the technology in hopes of helping their lost friends on the desert planet. “You’re…not coming with us?” asked Mata Nui. “No,” replied Erax, “The time for me to leave is soon. The compass that I carry with me will send me out of here.” “Well then, I guess this is good-bye,” said Kiina. “I believe so,” he answered, “Thank you.” Erax handed Mata Nui the vile and stepped back, watching the last few people going inside the rocket. The flames glowed as the ship prepared its way back home. Slowly but surely, the rocket soared into the skies. Behind him, the portal appeared and grew until it was about his size. Erax took a deep breath and jumped in, preparing for his path towards tomorrow. He would never forget his times in many worlds, from making friends to learning many secrets about each world. Though there were times that he stayed for a few hours, he got to learn something that others wouldn’t have; being thankful. Someday, he thought, I’ll record them all down…and I will give a name to this journey, Decade. *Erax’s journey continues in Petals in the Pond beginning in Chapter 13 where tribes clash each other as a result of the rising star crossed lovers. Then his journey concludes in Averax Magna Chronicles at the end of book 2 and throughout book 3. The epilogue will take you back to present. Review
