My Little Toa: Quest for the Masks
Chapter 3: THE ARRIVAL
Previous ChapterNext ChapterSunset stepped out of her hut wearing an old tattered cloak and looked up towards the sky, and let out a gasp. Six shooting stars of different colors had begun flying down towards the island of Okoto. Sunset couldn’t believe it. It had been an entire week since she and the other protectors had been to the Temple of Time asking for help from the stars above. Sunset stared in awe as one of the shooting stars, glowing purple with a red fire trail following it, fell towards the outskirts of her village, landing with a mighty boom.
Sunset grabbed her gear and began walking towards where the star landed. The entire village woke up from the crash and followed their protector, curiosity over-taking them. After walking a distance, Sunset soon located the impact sight. She sighed, not seeing a brave warrior anywhere, and began to just pass the impact as just a random meteor, until suddenly a hand burst from the hole, grabbing onto the ledge and began pulling itself out.
Sunset and the village watched in awe as the Newcomer stood before them. The being before them was purple, but wearing solid red and orange armor, giving off a sort of fire like vib. It also wore golden armor, looking like they were one tough warrior to come across. Her chest had a symbol on it, showing a massive star with five other smaller stars around it. It had two medium sized swords sticking out of its back, like flames, and was holding onto a massive board with flames in the middle. It had long dark blue hair flowing out from behind its head, with a light and dark purple streaks going down it. Speaking of its head, it wore a mask over it, shaped kinda like a helmet, with a mouth piece to speak out of. Finally, she spoke.
“Ughhh… Where am I? Who are you?” The mighty warrior asked looking down at the protector and the villagers.
Sunset stepped forward and replied, “I am Sunset Shimmer, the Protector of the village of Fire, and these are my people,” Sunset gestured towards the fellow villagers behind her as they all stared in awe at the Newcomer, “As to where you are, you are on the Island of Okoto. May I ask mighty warrior, who are you?” The warrior blinked and thought to herself, not seeming to be able to remember much about her. However, a name did come to her mind as she thought.
‘Toa Twilight Sparkle’
“My… Name, I believe, is Toa Twilight Sparkle.” She said as Sunset nodded her head upon hearing the word ‘Toa’, which stood for mighty warriors of elemental powers.
“Well then Toa Twilight, it was I and my fellow protectors who have summoned you and others like you to our island to save us.”
Twilight scratched her mask in confusion. “Save you? From what?” Twilight asked as Sunset suddenly released a small ball of energy from her hand, showing images of what has happened to Okoto within the past few months to the mighty Toa. “A terrible evil is rising, and the six of you are here to defeat it!”
Twilight looked towards the villagers, her head holding many, many questions, but had no memory of just who she was besides her name, and what she was capable of. “Me?” She asked. “What do I know about defeating evil?”
Sunset then showed a picture of the island to Twilight, showing six masks as well, one of them resembling her own. “It has been foretold that one day, six Warriors, the Toa, would arrive and go on a quest for Golden Masks, to unlock each of their great powers.”
Twilight looked at Sunset in confusion and asked, “How do you kno-“ Suddenly the crowd gasps confusing her even more. “Was it something I said?” Twilight asked not knowing that she had been watched this whole time from the bushes behind her.
Sunset pointed to them and shouted, “NO! ITS THOSE SKULL SPIDERS BEHIND YOU!” Suddenly four Skull Spiders jumped from behind her and lunged towards her. Twilight raised her board as she was about to turn around, only for one of the spiders to slam into it. Twilight begun spinning around in confusion as her board kept taking out each of the Spiders. Twilight turned back towards the villagers as the final Skull Spider lunged for her. Twilight raised her hand about to ask a question, only for the last one to slam right into it.
Twilight stared in confusion at what she just did, then towards the villagers as they began bowing towards her. “Do you still doubt your power Twilight?” Sunset asked as she stepped towards Twilight. “Come. I am sure the rest of your team has landed in their own villages, and the other Protectors have spoken to them. We shall meet with them at the Temple of Time to set up a plan.
Twilight and Sunset entered the Temple of Time and walked towards the center as ten other beings entered the Temple as well. Twilight stepped forward as the other five Toa stepped into the main chamber. Twilight looked at them curiously. She turned to her right to see a Toa that was Cyan Blue underneath her armor. Her armor itself was green and silver, with a symbol like Twilights on her chest, showing a cloud with a rainbow thunderbolt coming out of it. She wielded two silver swords and had massive wings attached to her arms. Like Twilight, she had long hair flowing from her head, but multiple colors. Her mask was green as well, and kinda had a smile to it, like she was some sort of goofball.
She turned towards Twilight, putting her swords away and stuck out her hand. “Greetings! I am Rainbow Dash, Toa-Hero of Jungle!” She said with a smile as Twilight took her hand and shook it.
“I am Twilight Sparkle, Toa of Fire.” Twilight gave a small smile as she turned to the next Toa next to Rainbow Dash. This one underneath her armor was yellow. Her armor was blue and silver, with a symbol of three butterflies on her chest. Her feet had flippers on them, making Twilight think she must be a great swimmer. Her weapon was a giant trident, and her hair was long and pink. Her mask was solid blue, but instead of a mouth piece like her and Rainbow, this one had her mouth covered up, with tiny holes in it to breath. She set her trident down and walked over to Twilight and slowly stuck out her hand, clearly afraid.
“I-I am… Fl-Fluttershy… The, uh… Toa of Water…” She said nervously.
Twilight gently took her hand and shook it smiling. “It is nice to meet you Fluttershy.” Fluttershy smiled as Twilight turned towards the next Toa. This one gave off a cold feeling in more ways than one. Her body was solid white, with white, silver, and Gold armor covering her. Like the others and herself, this ones armor looked like it was built for places that were extremely cold. Her chest armor shown a picture of three diamonds. She wielded a massive spear in one hand, and in the other a shield to protect herself with. Her hair was long, purple, and curly, like the harsh cold winds blew it that way. Her mask was the strangest out of everyones. One side looked normal like everyones, but the other side had three eye holes. She walked over to Twilight and nodded to her.
“Rarity. Toa of Ice.” She said with a tone that said she didn’t want to be here. Twilight nodded and turned towards the next Toa. This one was the oddest of them all with her armor. She was light orange underneath it, with her armor brown and orange. However, it seemed like she couldn’t make up her mind on where to place it, as her armor was all over the place on her. Her chest showed what appeared to be three apples. Her feet had massive shoes under them, to keep her from sinking in sand. She had a small dagger in her right hand as her main weapon. Her hair was long, blond and shown no amount of care as it just hung there. Her mask was smaller than the rest, and quite bulky, with it being solid brown. She walked towards Twilight putting her weapon away and over a hand shake.
“I am Applejack, Toa of Stone.” Twilight shook it nodding and turned to the final Toa. This one was big, like REALLY big. She looked like she could tear herself through anything. Underneath her armor, she was pink, which really threw off her armor as it was solid black, silver, and gold. Her chest armor showed what appeared to be three balloons on it, two blue, and one yellow. She didn’t seem to be wielding any weapons, but rather, her own hands were the weapons as they were two massive digging claws. Her hair was a darker shade of pink, and flat, due to all the dirt in her hair. Her mask was a lot bigger as well, colored solid black. She smiled and walked over to Twilight and shook her hand happily.
“HI! IM PINKIE PIE! IM THE TOA OF EARTH!” Twilight let go of Pinkie as her arm was still shaking as Pinkie had an innocent smile on her mask. The Toa all turned towards the Protectors after they introduced each other and Twilight asked, “So whats the plan?”
