Species: Human. I'm pretty certain of that. Kanohi: Kanohi Bluglass, Mask of Anti-Glare Prescription Glasses Weapons and Equipment: Equipment: Flat caps. A wallet. A driving permit.
Weapons: I have an awesome katana on my wall.
IC: An incoming train screeches to a halt in Matau Station. The station around it is busy, noisy and bustling with people preparing to leave Le-Magna for outlying areas. And in a second the ambiance of the station is drowned out by a deafening roar as the new arrival is consumed in a massive fireball. The explosion spreads, eating up the nearby platform and part of the station before vanishing, leaving a blackened husk in its wake.
IC: Both Sylah and Rahzahkea had exited the building and walked a short distance when they stopped. Both seemed to notice the smoke coming from the distant Matau Station. Rahzahkea cursed under his breath, his mental voice reaching out to everyone still in Xia's 2.
Everyone able bodied and ready, go to the source of the smoke. Something is wrong.
At Matau Station.... IC: A tall, gray-cloaked Toa stands next to Rolvik, looking at the burning wreck.
He is smiling broadly.
IC: Petram hefts two large handaxes. “Go time.” He hits the ground running.
Tuhi hears the explosion running his errand. He decides Sansod can meet him there, and heads towards the source of the sound at a sprint.
Come! Come and listen, my friends. Listen as I regale you with the next chapter in the legend of the Bionicle.
IC: Rahzahkea trembles slightly, the tablet falling to the table. His hands are clenched into fists, and his eyes have a very dangerous light to them. "Everyone who was asked to come save Vashari, let's go. Vashari will meet us there. Tuhi, take word of our situation to Sansod and let him know we are going to take care of it."
He points at Seriac and Terenoa...and then lowers his hands. "Seriac, Terenoa, can you scope out the docks from a distance, let us know if anyone tries to ambush us from behind there?"
IC: “On it!” Tuhi runs out ahead of them. He had been getting used to the Vaguard, their personalities, their quirks.
Speaking of Sansod, the Face of Mata Nui happened to be thinking of a conversation he’d had with a Toa. It had been not long after the Vanguard had returned...
OOC: SOJ, you’re up.
initiating flashback i suppose IC: Sevair was waiting in Sansod's office when he arrived. "Hello, Sansod. I'd like to talk. that was completely unintentional"

IC: Sansod was tired after chasing a bunch of escaped crooks. He fell over in a chair and messaged his temples (ha) inside his mask. “I’m listening.”

IC: Petram hefts two large handaxes. “Go time.” He hits the ground running.
Tuhi hears the explosion running his errand. He decides Sansod can meet him there, and heads towards the source of the sound at a sprint.
IC: Rahzahkea focuses, and a field of energy spasms in the air and forms a dimensional portal to the station. He and Sylah step through, appearing in the area near Matau. Rahzahkea looks around, reeling inwardly at the psychic feedback of all those...all those dead.
So many...who....who did this?
Rahzahkea and Sylah attempt to investigate the crash, Rahzahkea mainly speaking to and trying to get a story out of some survivors/passerbys and Sylah looking at the actual wreckage.
"We're Toa. Nature is our weapon." - Rahzahkea

IC: By now most of the crowds have dispersed, leaving the station empty except for a glowing blue bubble roughly in the middle of the crash site. The shield flickers, then dies, Lync collapsing to her knees.
The area around her is blackened and scorched, pieces of the train strewn about far beyond the blast radius, the dead and dying laying among them.

By then Rolvik was there, having been examining the marks.
“No one ever stood atop the heavens before. Not you, or I, or even the gods. But the unbearable vacancy of heavens throne ends now. From now on, I alone will stand at the top.”

IC: Rahzahkea kneels in front of Lync, looking at her with an unfamiliar expression on his face. He raises a hand, psychic energy streaming into the Air Toa's body, and says a single word.
"Awaken."
The energy coalesces in her mind, attempting to force the Toa's head to do what her body isn't doing...and wake up.
Sylah looks up, slowly releasing the hand of one of the more recently deceased victims, and rises to her feet slowly. She walks over to Lync, and similarly kneels, staring at her in confusion. "Is...is she ok, Rahz'?"
Rahzahkea does not reply.
Vashari hears Rahzahkea's voice echoing in his once again, cold and serious. Whatever you are doing can wait. We have been attacked. Matau Station. A bomber of some kind.
He looks down at Lync, eyes an unfamiliar golden tinge.
They sent Lync along with the bomb.

IC: Petram and Tuhi arrive at roughly the same time. They take a quick look around, then look at the train wreckage. Petram runs over and looks inside the train, to see if anyone inside is injured.

IC: Rahzahkea lays a hand on her shoulder, slowly helping raise Lync to a sitting position. "Lync," he says with a calm, almost too-tranquil voice. "What happened? Why were you in that bomb-train? Who put you there?"

IC: "I put myself there." She looks down, avoiding 'Kea's eyes. "I was back in the Wastes again. Must've been in the right area, if the bomb was on this train, out of any of them." She heaves a heavy sigh. "Still couldn't find them."

IC: She sighs again, shifting to a more comfortable position. "A few days ago, when I asked for some time off. I went out into the Wastes to try and track Borom again. I did a few loops, talked to some people, nothing. So I got on the train to come home. The bombs... wherever they were, it wasn't obvious. I didn't know about it until it was about to go off. But I heard something, a clicking. Then it blew up."

Arilam enters through the portal, grimacing at the scene. Advena follows close behind, freezing at the sight of all the bodies. She grimly pulls her hood back up in a fruitless attempt to hide them from her vision.

”Yeah, I was here catching a train when it happened. The blast marks are everywhere, but we should ask Hanah. She's the real bomb expert. I think it burned my eyebrows off.”

IC: Petram tries to reach in, but thinks better of it concerning his size. He looks around really quick. “Tuhi!” The Matori runs over. “Yeah?” Petram points inside the train. “Get those Matoran, dead or alive, out of this train. I can’t fit.” Tuhi nods and carefully steps inside, moving to the piece of rubble and inspecting it really quick before he does anything.
Come! Come and listen, my friends. Listen as I regale you with the next chapter in the legend of the Bionicle.
