~Flashback~

(Y/N) moved in closer to Kusanagi and Tatara as Dewa revealed a picture of Akagi's friend on his phone. He discussed about her and traded them with information, which allowed them to understand the situation crystal clear. (Y/N)'s thoughts were correct. She fell into Rakshasa's scheme and is now unable to escape. Akagi's motive became less blurred as more details came into light. All he wanted was to gain power and save her. The (H/C) girl gave out a small sigh before facing the man of decisions. Even Tatara did, giving him a carefree smile, "... Then, what should we do?"
Kusanagi faced the two of them with a serious look on his face. The plan was exposed.

~Current Time (In memories)~

As HOMRA made their way to the hideout, loud screams and shouts could be heard in the distance. The sounds of guns being fired ricochet amongst the hollow walls. The organisation was in panic as they tried to find the culprits of the break-in and protect their leaders. Soon the noises could be heard running at the red clan, armed with weapons. The red flames lit up like a wildfire frightening the opponents. Some fled but most stuck behind to take down Suoh Mikoto. The bullets melted by the consuming heat surrounding the King. The walls caved in as the fire burst through, injuring the people around. The smell of blood became apparent as the room was covered with a scent of metal. (Y/N) noticed Akagi and Bando lying on the ground covered in bruises and wounds.

A threat was made before the man lifted his knife up to slit the woman's throat before the flames hit him, knocking him off his feet. She looked terrified. Akagi turned to face the members with blood covering his face in surprise. Kusanagi stood there lighting his cigarette. (Y/N) stood beside Anna and Tatara watching it all unfold. She smiled as she knew they got there in time as Akagi and Bando could have lost their lives. The King spoke to the boy, "It won't do you any good... To get drunk off of your own power." The leaders looked terrified whilst a small voice choked out, "You... You guys are..."
"That's right. WE ARE HOMRA!" Yata voiced uncovering his insignia below his top on his top left chest near his shoulder with a smirk on his face. Realisation hit them when they glanced at Suoh. The guns fired at him, but they couldn't reach.

Suoh looked at his gang, "Let it burn. Remember to leave the ashes." (Y/N)'s smile widened when she heard those very words. "NO BLOOD! NO BONE! NO ASH!" HOMRA chanted in unison with a face of joy wept across their faces. The battle began as the flames of red smothered the entire room. Just as (Y/N) was about to join in, Tatara held her arm. "Don't go. They will do just fine!" he smiled cheerfully at her. Slightly frowning she replied, "Okay... I won't go." Tatara knew her all too well.

~The Next Day~

Back at the bar, (Y/N) sat next to Tatara as he filmed Kusanagi rant about the 'kids' causing a mess of things. He even called them 'trouble-making idiots'. She took a sip of her drink as the bartender spoke, "... Speaking of which, you... are always getting bored doing things here and there. But lately, you've been sticking to this photography hobby of yours?"
"Yep! I can never get tired of being able to keep the memories alive," he replied giving them a small grin.

Looking at Tatara, (Y/N) drifted into her own mind like a leaf floating above water. "Everytime I reach out my hand, you always take mine in yours," she thought, "you always seem to know when I need you most... but when do you need me?"

~Present Time~

"In my dreams, Tatara is always there smiling at me without a care in the world with his butterflies fluttering around ever so placidly."

"The words he would always say to me were: 'You really are similar to my flame butterflies. You and the butterflies keep fluttering your wings, even when you're trapped in that mind of yours.' "
