Matoro let out a sigh as he counted off the tenth minute that had . Already ten minutes had passed, and while he had travelled quite the distance, there had been nothing yet to be seen other than the plain, unyielding white nothingness. Is there truly an end or even an exit to this place?Matoro thought as he subconsciously counted off the eleventh minute. Matoro was brought out of his thoughts as he noticed a metal structure in the distance. At last, signs of civilization!, he thought with a tinge of joy, and patted the Ussal Crab on its shell. Taking this as a sign to speed up, the shellfish Rahi sped up to 60 MPH as it rushed towards the now-distinguishable arc.
As the Toa Mahri got closer to the arch, he saw that there were several beings standing around the arch. The beings were roughly the same size as himself, back when he was a Toa Inika, but were entirely white with black highlights at the joints, all of them holding some sort of a black stick-like apparatus not dissimilar to Vezok's Water Harpoon (Perhaps the weapons were a form of launcher?, Matoro pondered.). The strangest part, however, was that they all have the same mask. Due to there being a shortage of masks back on Mata Nui, Matoro was familiar with seeing several Matoran wearing the same kind of mask, but an enitre squad of them? Something didn't seem right...
As the Toa of Ice drew closer to the arch, the beings finally seemed to notice that he was approaching, and the majority prepared to fire while a few of them ran into the arch, shimmering for a few seconds before disappearing. A portal, perhaps? Matoro thought as the remaining beings formed a line in front of the arch. "Hold it right there!", one of the white Matoran-like beings shouted at Matoro, the rest of the squad still pointing their launchers at his chest. Matoro quickly leaned back on the Ussal Crab's shell, the Rahi near-instantly coming to a halt. "Identify yourself!" The lead being said, and Matoro lifted his hands up to show he wasn't hostile.
"Matoro, Toa of Ice," He quickly answered, and the squad looked at one another before lowering the weapons. The being that was closest to him looked at the Ko-Toa, then eventually turned back to the portal. "Apologies for that, sir, but we've had some difficulty with some more malevolent Primes," The lead being said, and Matoro looked at the being with confusion. Primes? Was that what people who were summoned by Omni were called? "All the same, sir, we'll need for you to come with us to get registered as a Prime," The white being said, and Matoro nodded in agreement. After all, it'd make sense that any person who'd come through to be registered so that they'd keep track.
"Understood, sir," Matoro said, then tapped the shell of the Ussal Crab once, making the metallic crustacean start to scuttle forwards, following the being as they walked through the portal, four of the other beings following shortly behind him.
