Oneua sighed as he watched the island of Metru-Nui fade away slowly, one hand tightly holding the guard rail of the ship, the other tightly holding a small stone.

At first glance one might think it were just a normal every day stone, when in truth, to Po-Matoran these stones were rare and more important than any other item they used to craft or carve with.

The stone was a Memorial stone, used by many as a means to remember the stories of the Toa who had come before their time, and the heroic deeds they had done.

Rahaga Pouks had gifted it to him after they had changed back and the night before they had all shared stories, old and new of the Toa who had come before them, Good and Bad.

And now he couldn't help but feel that without the stone he now clutched, those same stories would be forgotten and lost in time, he sighed again and then looked at the stone in his hand.

"Here's to the heroes, those few who dare… Heading for glory, leaving a prayer…" He sang softly and the stone seemed to glow lightly, he continued softly, glancing back as he heard someone join him in song, the deep voice could only have been Whenua, "Here's to the heroes who changed our lives… Thanks to the heroes, freedom survives…"

Nokama looked up from her place and smiled, softly drumming her fingers over the railing, letting the sound softly filter around them.

"Here's to the heroes who never rest… They are the chosen, we are the blessed," they continued smiling as they heard Nuju from somewhere above them, harmonizing with Vakama while somewhere from the front, Matau echoed their words. "Here's to the heroes who aim so high, here's to the heroes who do or die."

Oneua realized faintly that they were in fact following his lead in the song and smiled when he also realized that there six bright lights now hovering over Metru-Nui as the island grew smaller and smaller. One day he hoped they would all be able to go home again…

One day, they would go back and tell the stories to everyone. "Here's to the heroes who aim so high, here's to the heroes who do or die. Here's to the heroes…"

One day… when new Toa with stronger powers than they had now were Heroes. "Who do…"

That day, Oneua hoped, wouldn't be too far away. "Or die…"
