Finally, I'm posting another Visitors shot! Gah, how long was it since the last one? This has actually been done for a while, I'm just lazy. ^^;
So Kongu, Nuparu, and Hewkii this time, mostly focussing on Kongu because there's not enough Kongu love. (No, I'm serious here.)
I'm actually trying to find a way to do a Mata Nui one, and there was a request by mazula to do something involving Teridax. Plus I want to do something involving Matoro himself. So there will probably be at least three more.
Short A/N is short. (For that matter, short shot is short. Say that five times fast.) Thanks for reading, and please review! Constructive criticism is always appreciated.

We're your friends!
We're your friends!
We're your friends to the bitter end!
(The bitter end!)

Kongu wasn't the most emotional guy. It wasn't like he was totally uncaring and emotionless like Toa Kopaka or anything, but he never did much in the crying department. Nuparu didn't cry much either, but that was mostly because he'd never really had much reason to. Same with Hewkii.

That didn't stop them from practically bawling during Matoro's memorial ceremony. Kongu eventually had to leave for a moment to compose himself. He was a mess. This was ridiculous! Toa didn't cry!

He muttered this to Hewkii, who elbowed him. "They do when one of their closest friends dies," he growled. With a sigh, Kongu nodded. He just couldn't wait for the ceremony to be over.

Finally, finally, it was done, and Kongu slipped out. There was somewhere he wanted to go.

After a little while, he was joined by Nuparu. He didn't say anything, just fell into step next to his brother. Hewkii joined them too. They didn't need to speak to know where they were going. They just knew.

When they got there, they stood and looked up. There it was: Matoro's memorial statue. Kongu wasn't sure why they were all there—apparently they liked to torture themselves via tears. Sure, he'd died to save everyone else, but they'd still lost a brother and a dear friend. It hurt. A lot.

A quiet noise alerted them that they weren't alone. Hahli and Jaller joined the trio, looking silently up at Matoro. After a moment, Hahli put a hand on Kongu's shoulder.

"It's okay to cry, you know," she said quietly.

He shook his head. "Nah. Matoro-brother wouldn't want me to."

Nuparu wiped a few tears out of his own eyes. "Didn't stop me," he joked with a wry smile.

Hewkii shrugged. "Besides, what're friends for?"

Kongu still didn't say anything. But he did stay long after everyone had left. Only then did he let the tears out. They were for Matoro's eyes only. Hewkii was right. What are friends for? For caring. And sometimes, caring means crying.
