Teleportation in Time Trap?

Hey Greg, just finished reading Time Trap, and it’s probably my favorite of the Bionicle books so far, but I have one slightly hypothetical question that I can’t seem to find the answer to online.
At the end of the book Vakama and Makuta make a deal of peace and then Vakama is teleported away with the Vahi. Why didn’t Makuta either teleport the Vahi itself straight to him before Vakama was holding it or why didn’t he teleport Vakama far away and just grab the Vahi himself? Is it because he just didn’t think of it or because he was weakened by the Shadowed One or some other reason?
Thanks for your time!
