*POV 1st person Nova*

The cavern was…massive, it was almost impossible to comprehend the sheer size. Filling the cavern was an absolutely massive metal wall with a sizable crater in it.

“No prizes for guessing what that is” Minion quipped.

“Alright, we can gawp later” I said, “we need to get in, contain or destroy the entities as quickly as possible, then get out and let archaeologists move in”

“Right!” the Neu-Toa responded. With that we began waking our way down to the opening, it took us about an hour or two to make our way to the opening, though without the clock on our HUD we wouldn’t have known as time just seemed to stretch out. As we made our way down the air quality seemed to drop.

“The air tastes fowl down here” Miserix growled

“Thank gods we have this adaptive armour” Vinyl said.

“Speak for yourself” Red dawn said. Eventually we were close to the entrance, I noticed a stream of a silvery liquid, almost like mercury, when I dipped my hand in it had a consistency like gravy.

“Protodermis” Miserix said “We aren’t far”

“Hmm” Minion said “I always wondered what natural protodermis was like”

“That was one thing I couldn’t understand” Autumn said “How your oceans were filled with protodermis-” she was cut off

“Yet there are toa of water?” Teridax asked “Protodermis was just another resource, just like water or metal ores”

“Hmm, truly fascinating” Discord said, floating down and dipping his hand in.

“Not really” I said “I mean, it’s not uncommon for there to be metals that are liquid at less than room temperature”

“Yes, yes” he said dismissively, pulling out a seemingly alive fish made entirely of protodermis, only to shrug and chuck it back in “but unlike you I don’t spend my spare time among the science types. I mean, what point is there trying to find what makes the world go around when I can shape reality to my whim”

“Whatever” I said, rolling my eyes.

“Hey, Nova” Boris called over the coms, I looked ahead to see the Neu-Toa of Air stood by the entrance about 100 yard in front of the group “You are going to want to see this”

“I’ll be there in a minute” I said, before sprinting up to the front of the group, I stood beside Boris, inside the head of the GSR I could see what remained of the once great city of Metru Nui “Looks dead, that’s a shame, I would have loved to have seen it for myself in its heyday”

“Look closer” he said, passing me his rifle, I looked down the scope and I could see numerous skyscrapers, I was surprised to see smoke rising from various areas. “If this city is supposed to have been dead for 400 million years then why is there smoke rising?”

“This just got interesting,” I said, before opening coms “Alright guys, looks like Metru Nui isn’t as dead as we thought”

“Impossible” Brutaka said, walking up to us “Everyone got out, that much I’m certain of”

“Yeah, well I’m not so sure” I said.

“What do you mean” Teridax said

“Before we left I did some reading, I can access all sorts of networks.” I said, before bringing up a hologram displaying a map of the internals of the GSR “So far as we know, the furthest anyone explored was Artidax Island, there are a large number of islands south of there. It isn’t that big a stretch of the imagination to assume that whatever inhabited those Islands might have migrated north and stayed there”

“Great” Trigidax muttered “The last thing we need is having to avoid the locals”

“Either way, we don’t have much of a choice” Antroz said, readying his battle rifle “Besides, we still have to track those entities down”

“Right” I said “weapons prep, we move in half an hour”

An hour later we found ourselves at the docks of Ga-metru, and the sight was less than pretty.

“This place looks less destroyed by moon and more ravaged by Civil war,” Mutran said, I noticed he had a German accent.

“Discord” I said “I want you to go ahead, see what you can find”

“As you command, your highness” he said, sarcasm dripping in his words, he then snapped his fingers and disappeared in a flash.

“Alright, Weapons ready” I said, taking out my swords “we don’t know what we’ll encounter.”

(distant)“Help! Over here!”

Teridax stopped, looking around before frowning

“See something?” Miserix asked

“I heard something” Teridax responded “Keep your eyes open, Brother” Miserix nodded.

“Any idea what it could be?” I asked

“I’m not sure”

(Distant)“Someone Help!”

Everyone stopped. Having heard the voice

“Okay, I definitely heard something that time” Vinyl said. I began mentally running through the database of escaped entities to see which ones could speak or replicate speech. Narrowing it down to 5 possible entities.

“Help please!” the voice sounded female, and in considerable distress, narrowing it down to one.

“Vinyl” I called “Sonar burst, now” Vinyl nodded and her mask glowed before an audible ping sounded off with a blue wave following in its wake, after a few moments the shockwave bounced off of multiple objects. I counted 9 in total

“Everyone, circle around!” I ordered “Detecting possible presence of SCP-939, make sure your repertory gear is functioning correctly”

“t͢͝e̵t͏̕a҉҉͝h̵͟͜í͢ ̨̀͟t͜͠é͡ ̵͡t̵͟a̕͏̨҉̛ù̕t̸̡̡͢ų̴r̢̀́͝ų̶̀” a voice said, I could begin to hear shuffling.

“Acknowledging use of Spherus Magnan” Autumn called out.

“T̕é̵͘͟͜t̷̶͜͠͞a̡̧͠͡h̶̵i҉̡ ̶̷́͞t̛҉̢͝ȩ҉ ̀̀t̢́͘͟a̧̛͞҉u͜͞͡҉̧t̴̶ų̧͜ŕ͞͡u̵͞͝,̡̨ ͘͜M̀͢͠҉͘a̵t̢́͡a͘͠ ̡͟҉́͢N̷̷̡͟u̸̡͞i҉̨̀͜,̧̀ ҉̸t̵̷͜a҉ų̴̴̸t̵͠͝͏u͏̷̡̢ŗ̛u͢͠҉͜ ̴͘҉̕͞i̵̸͢ ̴̧҉͟͞t͡͠͡e̕͟t̴̨̛à͘͡͡h̶̛i͟͠͠!̵̶̨̛̛” came the unknown voice.

“Contacts are closing in” Minion said, then out of the dark I saw them, they were large, with red skin and large, needle-like teeth.

“Confirming visual, engage!” I ordered, all hell broke loose as those with raged weapons opened fire, whilst those with blades charged forward. “Come on!” one leapt towards me and I took a stab at it, before pinning it to the ground and activating my stasis cell. The creature thrashed about before being sucked in. just as I was about to stand up another lunged at me, only to get shot down by a high powered rifle round, I quickly contained it before glancing towards Boris and nodding.

“Two confirmed captures” I said.

“Make that 5” Brutaka said, blasting one of the creatures with a shotgun and quickly capturing it. At that moment, the remaining four entities began to retreat, heading into a building

“After them!” I ordered, The Makuta were the first to make chase, myself, the Neu-toa and Brutaka went to follow, but were stopped by an explosion from a nearby building, sending down rubble and blocking our path. Through the rubble, I saw Sombra stop and look back. “Go! We’ll find a way around” Sombra nodded, before following after the Makuta.

“Uh, Nova. That may be a problem” Vinyl called. I turned around to see a group of tall, biomechanical bipeds walking towards us, brandishing rather large and deadly looking weapons,

*POV 3rd Person*

Teridax dashed after the entities, followed closely by his fellow Makuta. They had entered a building, which Teridax recognised as leading to one of the transport hubs, which as well as the old chutes, would lead to the lower levels

“Keep up” he growled, increasing his speed “if they reach a working chute then who knows where they might go or the damage they might do”

“I thought this city had been in dis-use for 400-million years” Gilda said, flying alongside “And since when did you care so much about how much damage they might cause?”

“I don’t care, but it doesn’t make it any less aggravating when I get reprimanded for it” he growled, rolling his eyes “and tell me, do these hallways really look like they have sat abandoned for 400 million years? Did any of what you saw of Ga Metru look as decrepit as one would expect?”

“Good point” Gilda said, before her eyes widened “Over there!” the entities could be seen jumping into a chute.

“Shoot!” Red Dawn exclaimed.

“Don’t just stand there, you idiots” Teridax said, before picking up Antroz and Mutran and throwing them into the chute “AFTER THEM!” the rest didn’t need telling twice.

“You certainly have a way of getting them to move when you want to” Trigidax said. Teridax sneered before performing a mock bow and gesturing towards the chute.

“After you” he said, giving a very sickly smile.

“Don’t flatter yourself” Trigidax said. before leaping into the chute.

“Your attempts at flattery are, quite frankly, pathetic, Brother” Miserix said, chuckling before jumping in. Now Teridax was the only one left.

“̶̕͜t̀̕͟è̛͟ ̀͘a̸͢͝h̵̷̷͟á̛͜͜͝ ̵͟w̢̨̨̧h̸̢͠͝a̷̵k͘͘à̶̴r̴̸̛͜͝a͏҉̷̵͝ŕ͟u̶̕͡r̢҉a͢҉r͏̵̨͜ứ̡͝͏ ͠i̧̧͏͏” He muttered, before calmly walking into the chute. He remained in place for a few seconds, before the pull of the chute overcame inertia and he shot forward.

*POV 1st Person Nova*

These bipeds were tall, about 18 to twenty feet at least, and they had a certain...serpentine quality to their appearance and movements; extremely fluid yet at the same calculating. You could see from their eyes that they were fiercely intelligent.

“Keep an eye out” I said “I doubt these are the only ones in the area” Minion, Boris and Autumn all nodded.

“[Who’s in charge out of you seven]” one of them, clearly the leader, asked in a dialect of Spherus Magnan. They were female as well.

“[I am, my name is Kaina]” I said, using the name Mata Nui had given to me as a sign I was accepted as a Spherus Magnan.

“[Care to explain why you are in a restricted area?]” she asked.

“[We didn’t expect there to even be anyone in this city]” I said “[let’s just say the information we have of this city is…out of date]”

“[that’s an understatement]” Brutaka quipped.

“[so care to explain why this is a restricted area?]” I asked.

“[There is more at play here than you strangers seem to comprehend]” she said “[come with us, you can explain why you are here in the first place when we take you to our leader]”

*POV 3rd Person*

Antroz landed in a terminus, followed by the rest of their group and brought his rifle to bare. They had followed the entities to the Le-Metru district, but had lost them soon after. The terminus they were currently stood in was completely empty.

“Area’s clear, Teridax” he called out.

“You let them get away!” Teridax growled, grabbing the smaller Makuta, pinning him to a pillar and pressing the blade of his staff to Antroz’s neck.

“With respect, sir, we don’t know exactly what we’re dealing with” the Lower ranking Makuta protested, trying to push the blade off. Teridax growled before throwing him to the ground.

“Pathetic excuses, you’re lucky I still have use for you” He said “At least now we don’t have that pathetic Prince Nova holding us back. Vamprah, scout ahead” the bat-like Makuta nodded before taking flight.

“Sir?” Trixie asked, looking slightly worried.

“From now on, we operate without limits” Teridax said. “We use any means necessary”

“Watch yourself, Brother” Miserix warned, surveying the area “Nova may not be here, but I am”

“The difference between you two is you actually understand when to use a little force” Teridax said “Let’s go, we still have 4 of those entities to catch”

"What took you so lo...!?"

Sorry guys, I got a really bad cold around January and I just, haven't really written since anything since then
