Karma was picking up a lot of things and preparing food for the picnic. The fireflies have been getting some of Fate's items without Karma realizing about it. Now many of you are wondering, where did those fireflies came from and why are they so aware of their surroundings and actions? Well, you see they were one of Fate's first ever long living creations. Something shocking, right?

As well as you might now, Karma left to see his old home. Where him and his parents lived. He walked by and began to remember the horrid attack he had. He gained courage to walk in and search for something that was a permanent memory. 'It's still in a good state'. He thinks happily taking it and leaving the abandoned building.

Fate hummed drawing a little butterfly at the table, she could hear her mother humming while doing the chores of the house. She finished drawing as she contemplated her masterpiece. "Mom?". Fate asks shyly which made the mother look at her little blushing child. "I made this". Fate says scared of knowing her mother's reaction. "It's beautiful sweetie". She said giving Fate a kiss in the forehead. "Thanks, mommy". She said picking up her items and going upstairs. She was thinking about trying to make her drawings becoming real. It would be cool, wouldn't it? Fate smiled picking up a paintbrush and begging to paint what would be a butterfly. After some time she contemplated her art piece. 'How will I make it real? Should I, imagine? Or do I need to say words for it?". Fate doubting made her hand taking out the magic as she saw what happened. The butterfly became real, but only for an hour. That made Fate confident on what she could do with this new skill.

Fate and Karma where having like a little picnic at the cliff where it was the best for stargazing. Both children had the outfits and scarfs Karma had made at Color's place. The atmosphere was beautiful, so silent, so calm, so relaxing. Fate deeply smiled at the scene seeing how Karma reacted to fireflies. "What are those?". Karma let his curiosity surge making Fate dumbfounded. How can a child not know what fireflies are?! Fate shrugged off the thought of screaming and decided to ask back. "The glowing bugs?". She asks trying to see if she was right at that situation, the smaller only nods in response. Well, now that hurts. A lot. "They're called fireflies, they glow in the night". Fate explains shortly seeing in awe how Karma stared at them. The full moon was giving Fate enough light to giving some details to something that she wants to make real. "Hey, you want to see something?". The girl with golden hair asked wanting to know the little boy's answer. It was a huge smile with a nod. "Look! According to my parents, other beings catch fireflies for light". Fate shows the transparent jar where the fireflies are held in. "Today, I'll free them, but I need some help". Fate kinda lied since Fate created the fireflies in the jar. They can fly and everything but, she wanted Karma to experience things by his own. Besides, if she said she created them, it would make Karma feel more useless than ever. The fireflies began to color switch making Karma like them. "Woah!". The little boy holds one of the jars as he gave a look to the girl. "You're ready?". She asks putting a hand on the front part of the jar. "Yes". The boy with gave a determined look as they both open the jars at the same time letting them fly away. The fireflies decided to stay for a bit causing a really peaceful atmosphere. Fate somehow felt her face hot, seeing how the fireflies glowed either red or pink. She knew what they were trying to do. Fate got closer to Karma but turned her head trying not to scare the innocent one. He doesn't know much, even Melody at least has visited the outside world!

"Fate?". Karma asks getting closer to her. The scene was there. Karma was face to face to Fate. A scene Fate wished it would never end. She simply placed a hand on Karma's cheek as he snuggled into her hand. Fate was a red tomato, but she didn't care. As long as Karma was happy, she would do the impossible to see him smile.
