Riku's mum and dad left Riku to her grandparents to go to their flight for important business Riku was only 5. Her grandparents was downstairs watching the news and Riku was tucked up in bed dreaming away. The news was interrupted by a breaking news about the plane crashing down on a farmland, both of them was wishing it wasn't their son's flight. The grandmother started to cry when their picture popped up on the screen, and her husband snuggled her on the sofa and cried with her. Little Riku walked downstairs wiping her eyes "why are you crying granny?" She got up from her seat and walked over to Riku, she grabbed Riku's hand and said "mummy and daddy wont be home for a while sweety" Riku was confused "why?" She asked, her grandma started to cry "they gone to heaven" Riku's face dropped while walking upto bed poor little Riku cried herself to sleep.

She couldn't sleep and woke up from a dream, the lightening made her jump "mummy I'm scared" she cried but know one came to her. The lightening flashed again and Riku saw something in the corner of her room "m-muummy" she cried louder and the storm roared. The lightening struck again the figure went and Riku sat up she saw a bluey purple butterfly on her bed then a white dead looking hand picked the butterfly up, it was her mother smiling at Riku she gave her the butterfly and kissed Riku on her head "I will protect you honey" she faded away and Riku fell asleep...
