I do not own Bionicles. Wish I did. But I don't.

Pairings: Tahu/Gali. Implied one sided Kopaka/Lewa. If you look hard enough.

Rated M for death and dark themes.

Yes. There will be more, from each of the Toa

Gali's POV

He's screaming, clawing at his head, trying to desperately to stop the images running through his mind. Tahu tackles him, keeping him from causing any more harm to himself. Restraints are brought and he's subdued, still withering and whimpering. You're reminded of that day when you had to heal Tahu of the Rahkshi venom, only, it's not Tahu being restrained this time.

It's sickening, the way that dark blood shines so brightly against white, the smeared liquid marring the floor and walls. The soft whines of an animal in pain fill your ears, as your brother's thin form twitches spasmodically.

Your brother, one of the Toa, reduced to a pathetic heap on the floor. He's gone mad, gone mad with grief and rage. It wasn't his fault, it wasn't. Nobody knew how deep the darkness in Lewa's soul was. Nobody knew that there even was darkness in the Air Toa's soul.

I HATE you!

Those words broke him, those words from the lips of the only Toa that he truly loved. For all his cold exterior, he loved Lewa, perhaps his ways of showing it were unorthodox, but he loved Lewa none the less.

You think you can…can just tell me you loved me all along and everything will be alright?

Lewa had been infected with a poison that his engineering could not neutralize, there was nothing to do other than to let the venom run its course. As the poison-fever devoured his mind he began to say all the things that he had held back. The anger that had hidden behind the smiling mask, the true feelings of the Toa of Air. Lewa had said many things, from what fruits he didn't like to how much he hated Kopaka.

Kopaka.

Of all people, you did not expect Lewa to say that he hated his icy brother. Lewa had always seemed to like him, even when Kopaka was at his most surly. You look at the broken figure in front of you, listening to the softly babbled pleas for Lewa to forgive him, that he hadn't meant to hurt the Toa of Air at all.

He had said many of the same things to Lewa then, begging for his younger brother not to hate him.

Lewa please, I didn't know. I'm sorry. I-

What? You think you can do anything now? It is far-late to do anything brother. I can never love you.

Hot tears streak down your mask, hitting the ground without sound. Even after Lewa had recovered, a rift had grown between the Toa of Ice and the Toa of Air. Kopaka had gone out of his way to help Lewa, but Lewa had pushed him away at every turn. It really was too late for them to repair the broken bond between them.

The Matoran of Ko-Koro had come to you weeks after Lewa had recovered, asking for your help. You had gone to the icy land that Kopaka called home, Tahu by your side. Together you had found brother in the small cavern he called his room, curled up in one corner, blood crusted on his white armor. Tahu had carried him out of the ice caves, to your domain, so you could care for him.

He hasn't gotten any better, if anything he's in worse shape now. His body is healed everytime he hurts himself but his mind has degraded. Lewa won't visit him, he refuses to now. It's understandable, in a logical way, since last time that Lewa came Kopaka cut himself open, in an attempt to show Lewa how much he cared for him.

L-lewa…If it makes you feel better…here…I-I'll give you anything….

Blood splashes across the floor, Kopaka has ripped his forearm open with a twisted piece of steel..

There must be a way to fix the problem, you will find it. You must, without Kopaka the Toa are not a complete circle. Tahu comes and wraps a gentle arm around you.

"I'll watch him tonight, go sleep Gali."

A grateful smile crosses your face, this is why you love him. He knows when your at your limit, and when you are, he'll help you.

You will fix this. You will.
