I know, I know I've let you down. I've been a fool to myself. I thought that I could live for no one else.
But now, through all the hurt and pain, it's time for me to respect the ones who love me more than anything.
So with sadness in my heart, I feel the best thing I could do is end it all and leave forever.
What's done is done, it feels so bad, but once was happy now is sad. I'll never love again, my world is ending...
I wish that I could turn back time, 'cause now the guilt is all mine. Can't live without the trust from those you love.
I know you can't forget the past, you can't forget love and pride. Because of that, it's killing me inside.
It all returns to nothing.
It all comes tumbling down, tumbling down, tumbling down...
It all returns to nothing.
I just keep letting me down, letting me down, letting me down...
In my heart of hearts, I know that I could never love again. I've lost everything, everything, everything that matters to me, matters in this world...
I wish that I could turn back time, 'cause now the guilt is all mine.
Can't live without the trust from those you love.
I know you can't forget the past, you can't forget love and pride.
Because of that, it's killing me inside.
It all returns to nothing, it just keeps tumbling down, tumbling down tumbling down...
It all returns to nothing, I just keep letting me down, letting me down, letting me down...
It all returns to nothing, it just keeps tumbling down, tumbling down, tumbling down...
It all returns to nothing, I just keep letting me down, letting me down, letting me down...

Water for Gali was a sister, a second half, an extension. In the water she was whole, embraced, with nothing to fear.
Water for Nokama was an escape, a bubble of respite. Somewhere nobody could snag her, bother her, search for her.
Water for Hahli was a home and battle ground. She was invincible within it, untouchable, unbreakable, unreachable.
Air for Lewa was a safety net, a support; a pair of outstretched arms always ready to catch him before it was too late.
Air for Matau was a vehicle, another means of transport; something he had to master lest he break his bones upon it.
Air for Kongu was a second skin, a third limb; he knew better than anyone its shifting secrets, its so quiet language.
Fire for Tahu was an old rival. It curled on him, molded itself in his image, quipping amiably as they fought together.
Fire for Vakama was a tepid gaze. It reached out timidly, barely still burning, asking to be allowed in his hands again.
Fire for Jaller was a solemn promise. One he would need to hold tight, strengthened by discipline, to do right by it.
Ice for Kopaka was a taste of wilderness, carelessness, freedom; it was howling alone, dancing wildly in the silence.
Ice for Nuju was a breath of stillness, study, tranquillity; it was gazing in endless white to decode the world on his own.
Ice for Matoro was a scent of expectation, fear, tenderness; he entrusted to it his footprints, hoping they'd last.
Earth for Onua was peace and quiet. The songs it rumbled through him soothed him like kind hands easing his worries.
Earth for Whenua was reflection and wait. The stories it had written on its skin kept him company like many old friends.
Earth for Nuparu was knowledge and innovation. He heard in it his own voice as he mumbled during tireless workdays.
Stone for Pohatu was a rough comfort forced soft; when he wrapped it around himself like a blanket, he felt safe, warm.
Stone for Onewa was a tough tool forced smooth; when he shaped it according to his vision, he felt in control, certain.
Stone for Hewkii was a lean muscle forced strong; a part of himself that he exercised apart, to carve it into its zenith.

AU where immediately after grabbing the Kanohi Avohkii out of the lava Takua promptly fumbles, drops it again, trips while trying to catch it, and then proceeds to face plant directly onto the mask.
Search for the seventh Toa speedrun complete :P
“But I can still compete in the kolhii match, right?” he asks, causing Jaller and Vakama to both just immediately facepalm themselves. Vakama resigns himself to substituting Kapura in his place; he either takes the entire match to move a single step or he does his quick travel thing and wins in under ten seconds.
Either way, Vakama is completely exasperated by the day’s events and 10000000% done.
