It chronicles the untold tale of Vakama's quest to retrieve the Mask of Time from the depths of the sea (see BIONICLE Adventures 4: Legends of Metru Nui).

He also finds himself in a strange alternate reality as a Matoran and Nuhrii, Vhisola, Orkahm, Tehutti, Ahkmou, and Ehrye as Toa.

[carve] Synopsis

The Toa Metru were going back to Mata Nui after the Great Rescue. But Vakama insisted to return to Metru Nui to find the missing Vahi. He went and found it leaking energy. After repairing it he got hit by a water spout and almost drowned. Voporak found him and took the Mask of Time. Vakama woke up in an illusion created by Teridax. In this illusion, he is a Matoran again, while Tehutti, Vhisola, Ehrye, Nuhrii, Ahkmou and Orkahm are Toa. He tries to find Matau, but he´s dead. Then Vakama goes to Nuju's tower to have information about the power of the Kanohi Vahi, because Vakama thinks the mask made him to jump back in time. But Keerakh enter and use their staffs of power on Nuju. Vakama escapes and meets Nokama, and discover that all experiments are banned if they are not authorized by a Toa. Vakama and Nokama sneak in the Great Temple and find out information about Voporak. Sentrakh and The Shadowed One see them, and to the Shadowed One it makes no sense how Vakama killed Nidhiki and Krekka alone. Vakama and Nokama then go to a cave in Po-Metru. A Kratana jumps on Vakama's face and Vakama sees Krakua, a future Toa of Sonics, in a vision. He tells Vakama that six heroes will go to the darkest place he can imagine, brave the lightning, walk over fire, stare into the eye of evil, and that if they waver even once, they shall cease to exist. Turaga Lhikan comes out of the shadows and Vakama escapes the illusion. He sees that he is in Teridax's lair, "Nokama" is actually a Visorak Boggarak, and the "Morbuzakh" is Karzahni. Meanwhile, Voporak gives the Shadowed One the Vahi. Then Vakama and Teridax ally to get the Vahi. They go out of Teridax's lair and Teridax distracts Voporak with his Rahkshi. The unlikely duo go to the Great Temple. There, Teridax battles Keetongu and wins. Meanwhile, Vakama beats Sentrakh by heating up a container of Energized Protodermis, until it explodes. Vakama and Teridax then battle Voporak and The Shadowed One. Teridax defeats them both (with the the loss of his wings) but Vakama gets the Vahi and flies away to the Great Furnace. Under it Vakama comes across Karzahni (the plant), that had regrown from the branches of the Lhikan II. He also tells Vakama about the Order of Mata Nui and that the Toa Metru are the true Toa after all. Karzahni is then killed by Teridax, and Vakama escapes. Teridax reaches him, but Vakama threatens him saying that he will break the Vahi and destroy time. Striking a deal that Teridax, he will not attack the island of Mata Nui for one year, and will leave Keetongu, the Rahaga and Turaga Dume alone "as long as they don't get in his way". After that, Teridax teleports him and the Vahi out of Metru Nui to Mata Nui. Teridax then finds Ahkmou's Matoran Sphere and begins to tell lies to him, telling Ahkmou that the Great Spirit Mata Nui, the Toa and the Turaga are evil.
