'''Takea''', also known as the '''King of Sharks''', are fierce shark-like [[Rahi]].

== History ==
The Takea species was created by the [[Makuta]] using [[Virus]]es and [[Protodermis#Liquid Protodermis|Liquid Protodermis]] as one of the Rahi to inhabit the [[Matoran Universe]].{{BookCitation|MGttU|page=63|entryname=The Makuta}}

Takea made their home in the [[Silver Sea]]s of the Matoran Universe, specifically those around the island of [[Metru Nui]]. There, Takea were known to attack [[Matoran]] ships purely for sport.{{BookCitation|RB|entryname=Takea Shark|page=103}}

After the [[Great Cataclysm]] struck, many Takea migrated through the [[Great Barrier]]. Some allied themselves with [[Mavrah]], and later [[Battle Against Mavrah|fought]] the [[Toa Metru]].{{BookCitation|BA5}} The rest migrated to the newly-created island of {{p|Mata Nui|Location}}.<ref name="ga-koro creatures">[https://web.archive.org/web/20030216020748/http://www.lego.com:80/eng/bionicle/characters.asp?charid=gakoro BIONICLE: Ga-Koro Creatures]</ref> Simultaneously, many Takea ventured into the waters of [[Aqua Magna]], where they were mutated by [[Pit Mutagen]].{{ComicCitation|HT}}

When the [[Bohrok]] Swarms were [[Bohrok Invasion|awakened]] on Mata Nui, [[Gahlok]] activity off the coasts forced Takea closer to the shore, where they interrupted migratory patterns of [[Ruki]] schools, as well as becoming a threat to the fishing [[Taku]] birds.{{OnlineCitation|WoH|chaptername=Island Wildlife on the Move}}

After the [[Battle Against the Bohrok-Kal|defeat]] of the [[Bohrok-Kal]], the [[Ga-Matoran]] [[Hahli]] chased a Takea underwater in [[Ga-Wahi]] to train in the [[Kolhii Skills|skill]] of [[Speed]] for the [[Kolhii Tournament]].{{OnlineCitation|MNOG2|2}}

When the [[Toa Nuva]] [[Scroll of Preparations|intentionally unleashed]] the [[Bohrok]], these Takea migrated back to Metru Nui.{{GregCitation|OGDi|page=34|post=1357|lines=5,20}}

After the [[Great Spirit Robot]] was critically damaged in the [[Battle of Bara Magna]], the surviving Takea were evacuated onto [[Spherus Magna]].{{GregCitation|OGDi|page=300|post=11964|lines=5,12}}

=== Mutated Takea ===
When the Great Cataclysm shattered [[the Pit]] and allowed access to the [[Black Water]] above the prison, several Takea traveled to these waters and were mutated by exposure to the Pit Mutagen. [[Pridak]] later used these specimens in his army. The [[Barraki]] leader also enlisted [[Nocturn]] to create his [[Shark Tooth Blades]] by fusing more than ten thousand Takea teeth together.{{BookCitation|BEU|page=128|entryname=Shark Tooth Blade}}

Approximately 1,000 years later, [[Defilak]] built a [[Defilak's Submarine|submarine]] whose design was inspired by the Takea. When he, [[Sarda]], [[Gar]], and [[Idris]] traveled in the submarine to investigate the recent disappearances, they were attacked from all sides by a school of Takea, led by Pridak. The Takea excitedly destroyed the submarine, but were called back by Pridak, who captured the Matoran and brought them to a cave for questioning. When they refused to tell him the whereabouts of the [[Kanohi]] [[Ignika]], Pridak threw Sarda into a school of hungry Takea.{{BookCitation|BL6}} Unbeknownst to those in the cave, [[Toa]] [[Lesovikk]] saved Sarda, unleashing a [[Air|cyclone]] that scattered the sharks away.{{OnlineCitation|DroD|1}}

The [[Toa Mahri]] later arrived in the Pit and attempted a faux alliance with the Barraki. The Barraki placed them in sea caves guarded by their servitors, including several Takea. Toa [[Hewkii]] used his Kanohi [[Garai]] to cut off his guard's gravity, sending the Takea "flying" through the ocean.

Accompanied by a contingent of more than two hundred Takea, Pridak confronted [[Matoro]] and [[Maxilos]] on the Takea's feeding grounds and demanded the Mask of Life's location. Matoro used his Kanohi [[Tryna]] and reanimated the skeletons of the sharks' long-dead victims to [[Battle of Matoro and Pridak|attack]]. At the same time, a group of Takea swam over a trench where Hewkii and [[Nuparu]] were cornered by a group of [[Ehlek]]'s [[Venom Eel]]s. Hewkii increased the Takea's gravity until they slammed into the eels, and both sides began to devour each other. Ehlek mistook Hewkii's attack as Pridak's, and led his forces to join the growing battle between Matoro and Pridak. The Takea suffered heavy casualties in the vicious battle.{{BookCitation|BL7}}

Some time later, Pridak summoned the remaining Takea for a mass assault on Maxilos, revealed to be holding the spirit of Makuta [[Teridax]]. The sharks severely damaged Maxilos' body, before Pridak called them away to [[Battle for the Kanohi Ignika|attack the Toa Mahri]] and reclaim the Mask of Life.{{BookCitation|BL8}}

A mutated Takea devoured the [[Gadunka#Enlarged Gadunka|cursed Gadunka]] after it had shrunk back to its normal size.{{BookCitation|MGttU|page=55|entryname=Gadunka}}

After the Toa Mahri were spirited away from the Pit, Pridak gathered several mutant Takea to confront [[Dekar-Hydraxon|Hydraxon's replica]] and reveal evidence that he was not the original [[Hydraxon]]. Hydraxon defeated the Takea sharks with his [[Cordak Blaster]], then dispatched and jailed the Barraki leader.{{ComicCitation|HT}}

Some months later, {{p|Mata Nui|Being}} used the powers of the Kanohi Ignika and the [[Prototype Robot]] in conjunction to cure the Takea and others of their mutations, returning them to their original forms.{{BookCitation|JE}}
