When Teridax later attempted a similar rebellion to that of the Barraki, and succeeded, the Great Cataclysm he caused split the walls of the prison. Forever banished for their crimes, the Barraki fell out of time and memory. Moments before their sentence was to be carried out, Botar appeared and teleported the defeated warriors away to the Pit. Their coup was foiled by Teridax's army, and despite Takadox's attempts to ally with Teridax, he and his allies faced execution by the Brotherhood of Makuta.

He was given a Tablet of Transit, which identified him as an ally of the Brotherhood. Takadox was initially employed by the Brotherhood of Makuta in an attempt to watch over Pridak, who had left the Brotherhood.
