He uses his Matatu, halting the acid and plasma in mid air, and hurling it at the door.
Now is when Kratark suddenly notices Vindurax
"Ah, Vindurax. I will make this simple, you have two options: you can aid me in my hunt of Ornirax so that we can bring him to justice. Or, you can get in my way. If it's the latter, know that I will visit upon you the same wrath I have planned for Ornirax."
"Kratark. If I intended to hinder you, do you really think you would have found me so easily?''

"Kratark. If I intended to hinder you, do you really think you would have found me so easily?''
"It seems that you're both trying to smash me now. That's.... slightly unnerving. Very well, carry on. Have fun getting through the door. I'm just glad that none of you have ever been here before. I can try my new toys on unprepared victims.
"Also, Kratark: I don't appreciate how you treated EXT-01. He's certainly an annoying chatterbox who gets in my way, but he was certainly a help in some areas. For one thing, he never complained when I told him to take a message to a Skakdi chief saying that he is a bloated fool who doesn't know the first thing about fighting.
"At any rate, we need to get on with this. Come on. Just touch the door again." Ornirax chuckles, then his voice fades into nothing. Suddenly, there are loud roars to the right and left of the Makuta. As they turn to see what this noise is, they see several Ash Bears approaching with their teeth bared.
"The Makuta says you have earned her favor. She wishes to see your experiments, and in turn supply us with weaponry." "Is she mute? No matter. What experiments of mine do you wish to see?"
Anything and everything the Brotherhood might be able to weaponize, including your autonomous teleporters.
"Says she wants anything the brotherhood could weaponize, including our teleporter." "I will have Seeelk brought to her at the first opportunity. Do you only wish to examine your kind's past experiments, or are you interested in my own technology?"
"Kratark. If I intended to hinder you, do you really think you would have found me so easily?''

Suddenly, there are loud roars to the right and left of the Makuta. As they turn to see what this noise is, they see several Ash Bears approaching with their teeth bared.
Four separate puffs of smoke fly from Kratark's cape and enter the ash bears' mouths. Within the minute, they all shrivel up and perish.
"These games only succeed in making me want to kill you even more than I already do, Ornirax."
The Makuta then outstretched his hand, and blasted the door that ornirax was talking about so much with a concentrated blast of magnetic energies. The door was then crumpled and pushed in such a way that it was completely destroyed, and left wide open. Anticipating further traps, Kratark turned intangible and passed on through.
"I will find you somewhere in here Ornirax. And when I do, all your bravado... all your confidence, it will simply melt away. You will look upon me, and know just how worthless and weak you really are. And before you know it, there will be a gaping hole in your armor. Your antidermis will be spilled, and it will be annihilated, all in one fell swoop. Such is the fate of those who betray The Brotherhood."

The smoke passes straight through the Ash Bears. After this happens, the bears fade like mist in the sun.
"I know. But it is quite fun to watch you use brute force as your only method of problem solving. 'It won't move. Guess I'd better blow it to Karhzani.'"
When the magnetic blast hits the door, Kratark finds that the door is not magnetic. He is rewarded with a bolt of lightning from a Rahkshi hiding somewhere.
"You've threatened me like that once before, and I survived. I'm waiting for the day when you actually see my face again and realize that perhaps I'm not a weakling. After all, my door has kept you out thus far. You don't even have a fortress, do you? In fact, you don't have a region either. All you have is your arrogance, your stupid Rahi, and your delusional belief that you're special because you're the 'prized possession' of a Great Being. That's not much, especially since I could smash your Rahi with a wave of my hand or destroy your arrogance by making you fail. Once you fail, you will realize that really are nothing more than an imposter, not some perfect angel of destruction created by a being who copied the design of another. And after that, I can do it again and again you lose your bravado, and you lose your confidence. It's funny that you have never known fear. You boast about your power over fear all the time, yet you've never felt it yourself. I think it's high time you did."
The courtyard of the fortress vanishes in Kratark's eyes. Instead he sees emptiness. Nothing but blackness is visible in every direction. Suddenly, a figure appears. Sudden terror strikes Kratark as the being draws closer. Eventually, he is identifiable. It is Emarcee. Kratark is forced to his knees by an unknown force as he prepares to meet his maker. The only emotion he can feel is fear, and the only feeling he senses is pain. Both start softly but grow quickly as the Great Being draws near. He only speaks once, but the words devastate the terrified Makuta.
"You have failed me. I cannot tolerate such things in my perfect creation. Now you are nothing to me, Kratark. Nothing."
Emarcee vanishes before Kratark can say a word. Without any notice he begins to fall into the endless shadows that surround his limp body. He hears the scream of one in terror - could it be his? This noise echoes in Kratark's ears as the blackness is replaced with the wastelands of Zakaz once more.

Kratark comes out of the vision chuckling... chuckling? Indeed, the effect this all had on him seems to have been one Ornirax did not desire.
"Deceit, barriers, these are the tools of cowards. You are clever, Ornirax, barring my way with doors and traps -- presenting me a vision of the one thing I would fear most. But you have made a fatal error, that being:"
Kratark focuses himself for a moment.
"I don't care."
Kratark decides that if he cannot destroy the door, he would destroy everything else. Fragmentation blasts flew everywhere, destroying the room and the structure in its entirety.
"I will fragment the foundation that you cling to, and there will be nothing left for you to hold on to. Nothing more than your life, and you will lose that too."

"Interesting. Most interesting. The one who is blowing up a room - a room he is standing in - calls the one who carefully thinks about his plan a coward. He also says he doesn't care about the one thing he fears. You're certainly the most confusing person to ever hunt me."
As soon as Kratark creates an explosion it is snuffed out. He notices that he can hear no noises whatsoever. He also begins to choke as he tries to inhale oxygen that is not there.

OOC: Why would a being of energy that doesn't need to eat, sleep, or breathe be trying to breathe?

OOC: I knew they didn't need to eat or sleep, but I didn't know that they didn't need to breathe. I thought I'd just give it a go. Oh, by the way, I think Ornirax just saved your life by stopping the explosions. I don't Vindurax would have liked being in the center of Kratark's mass destruction.
