Rise of the Dark Hunters, Section 2: Failure in the Furnace

Toa Lhikan arrived at the Great Furnace. Shadow's were everywhere and the structure was battered.
"Looks like they've all ready left." Lhikan said to himself. He walked inside, he never let his guard down. If someone, or something was still in here, he would have to be ready for an Attack.
"Brother!" Toa Nidhiki called.
"Brother, What's a wind-rider like you doing here?" Lhikan asked.
"I came... when... I heard the Great Furnace had been attacked." Nidhiki said.
"Well all help is welcome." Lhikan said.
This isn't like Nidhiki. Lhikan thought, I'd better keep a close eye on him.

Nokama led the Onu-Matoran to her home. "What's your name?" Nokama asked.
"I don't know my name. All I remember is my escape from Kazarni's Realm and many centuries of Labour" The Onu-Matoran.
"You don't remember your name?" Nokama said confused, but she was glad the Onu-Matoran was speaking in full sentences now.
"Kazarni takes it all away." The Matoran said.
"I've heard legends about Kazarni. He's the brother of Artahka." Nokama said remembering the tale told by Turaga Dume.
"That him. The creature of a nightmare. We were tormented by him." The Matoran said.
"You said something about a cave before." Nokama said.
"Yes." The Onu-Matoran said. "A cave of darkness. I had to go through it to escape the Manas."
"And the dark hunters." Nokama said. "When I escaped the cave. I saw them." The Matoran said.
"Don't worry, your safe now." Nokama said softly.
"No-one's safe. Their coming. The Dark Hunters are coming." He said.
"Calm down. Let's get some rest. I have a class to teach tomorrow." She said and went to her bed. It had been a long night.

Suddenly Nidhiki knocked Lhikan to the ground with his Sword. The he shifted back into his original form. He was a Bone Hunter named Swamp.
"Time for you to fall." He said.
Lhikan shot a fire-ball at swamp, Knocking him over. Swamp got up and ran to the furnace. He pulled the key out shutting down all the power in Ta-Metru. Then he crushed the key with his own strength. Lhikan tried to stop him but it was to late. Swamp shifted into a Nui-Rama and flew away.
"Good bye Lhikan." Swamp said. He used his tail to trap Lhikan under the ruble and went to inform the Shadowed One of his victory...
