A tremendous uppercut is delivered to Timoria as soon as she says how irksome Toa are, the force behind the motion bringing Metru a few meters off of the ground. On his way back down he intertwines his fists, bringing them down on Landrinia’s Head with earth shattering force. Somewhere on another island, a Matoran feels a rumble beneath its feet.
OOC: Nulled. By the time Metru gets his bearings back, because he just got shadow-traveled to a different place, she would be gone with Landrinia. The only one present with Metru is Thymos. Please redo your move.
All Metru did ultimately was get moves from point A to point B. That doesn’t require much time to “gather ones bearings”. While perhaps the moment of darkness might have been confusing, it wouldn’t have been overly so due to Metru being a Toa of light. Plus, Metru only struck after a words had been spoken, roughly two seconds having had passed. That’s more than enough time for Metru to act.

Landrinia and Timoria are still gone. You may redo your move. The more you do to argue this, the more likely I am to have Thymos walk off. If you wish to attempt to try and battle my characters, her'es your chance. Go fight Thymos.

You cannot do that. You cannot just ignore a perfectly valid series of moves.

I am not going to argue with you on validity of your moves, it's unbecoming. You may redo your move. In the meanwhile, I have some Kai'Sa to go master.

OoC: Unless shadow-travel has some sort of jet-lag side effect, Metru had enough time to realize that Timoria was standing in front of him, as you did not specify where Timoria was standing, and proceed to deliver that uppercut, so unnulled.

OOC: I would imagine it would, at least for those not casting it. So yes, it has jet-lag.
Also, ponder this
He's suddenly thrust into pitch black darkness. REALLY dark. Then suddenly there's bright light. That's going to be disorienting. Even if he's a Toa of Light, that just means he'd be even more suseptible to the darkness. Seeing how Timoria traveled to Zakaz specifically with the intent to stop there, and then go to her other destination. He's still going to be disoriented, due to a change in position. That's MORE than enough time for her to jump through another shadow. Seeing how Thymos is also there, Thymos could've also prevented Metru from hitching a ride again.
He cannot have had enough time to deliver a 'tremendous' uppercut bringing him up into the air, as well as bring his fists down on Landrinia with 'earth-crushing force', when she's BEHIND Timoria, who was simply uppercutted. Furthermore, if Landrinia WASN'T behind Timoria, she would've been in front, because if she was to the side it would take Timoria just shifting her body slightly to the side to shield Landrinia. So, if Landrinia WAS in front of Timoria, that means he could NOT have uppercutted Timoria, therefore he would not have been in the air in order to bring his fists down on Landrinia with "earth-shattering force".
Therefore, we can conclude this, if you didn't bother reading the above: He would've been disoriented enough for Timoria to shadow-travel herself AND Landrinia both out, or at the very least, Landrinia. Landrinia getting out IS her objective, so if she couldn't get herself out, she'd throw Landrinia to safety. I'm willing to negotiate for that.
If he uppercuts Timoria, he cannot slam Landrinia down.
If he slams Landrinia, he cannot uppercut Timoria (nor should he SLAM Landrinia, but y'know, details.

First of all, you never specified where they were standing. Second of all, if both coming in and out of shadow travel was sudden, would Metru's eyes really have the time to adjust to the darkness? And if they could, wouldn't they adjust just as fast to the light?

One typically does not say "and they are facing the northwest at precisely 38, 84". Excuse me for not giving heaps of detail to a short post meant to simply be a transitional post.
I actually tested this out. As I am using the metaphor of the shadows being a tunnel, a short-cut for quicker travel, yes. The test I did was simple, I put myself and my friends in darkness for several moments, and then asked them to do a feat (relatively) similar of grandioseness to what Metru supposedly do, as SOON as they were out of the darkness. They were rather disoriented, as was I. I mean, we adapted back to light, but we STILL had that period of disorientation. Me closing a room's windows and turning off the lights is likely different than ABSOLUTE DARKNESS.
Yes, they would adjust, and no, they wouldn't have the time to adjust just as fast. I can ask my biology teacher if you'd like on how fast the human eye + brain can adapt in the way. You also are ignoring literally over half of my post (even if it was intended for VF). I shouldn't have to argue my character leaving a scenario they don't want to be in.

First let’s establish two solid and indisputable facts, 1) MU brings don’t have organic eyes, so any effect darkness would have on ours wouldn’t be shared with them. 2) Metru and Landrinia were within inches of each other when shadowported, so they would be within inches of each other immediately after being Shadowported.
Now, you said before in the initial post that Timoria grabbed landrinia and teleported away. While possible that Timoria could have approached Landrinia to do so, this is unlikely whih would mean that Landrinia is within arms reach of Timoria and due to 2, Metru would also be close to her.
Additionally, assuming MU brings even had organic eyes, Metru wasn’t enveloped in darkness for “several moments”. At most he was enveloped in darkness for a few seconds, something that even with organic eyes would have little to no disorienting effect.
Timoria appears, followed by a Vortixx and a Toa. Upon realizing the Toa's presence she sneers. "Your kind are so irksome." She hisses out lowly. "THYMOS, I did my part. You do yours." She says, grabbing the Vortixx and disappearing once again.
A blue toa walks up, rolling her eyes. "Always so dramatic. So, Toa, where do you hail from? I'll just send you back, I am in no mood to deal with this." She rubs her head, the pounding in her skull made worse by Timoria's voice. OOC: vortixxfan
A tremendous uppercut is delivered to Timoria as soon as she says how irksome Toa are, the force behind the motion bringing Metru a few meters off of the ground. On his way back down he intertwines his fists, bringing them down on Landrinia’s Head with earth shattering force. Somewhere on another island, a Matoran feels a rumble beneath its feet.
OOC: I have more important things to do than argue with you about something as petty as this. So you can have your little uppercut. IC: As soon as Metru touches Timoria, he finds his strength sapping away at alarming rates. Timoria swings her fist, empowered by Metru's own tremendous power and earth shattering force, right into his kanohi. Add this to Timoria's own might, and he is sent hurtling across the field. With nothing but a flash of her purple eyes, two things happen at the same time.
Shadows caress Landrinia, sending her away to safety, as heat, fire pools around Timoria's hands.
Thymos saunters up, veil neatly covering her bruised face. "A toa. How utterly drab." She mutters with distaste, and perhaps, apprehension. Water, tinged with a black, oily like goo materializes.
Eric shows up in some remote place on Zakaz. He looks around, trying to figure out where exactly the staff took him. He shrugs, and walks off in a direction.
