A ball of soul
It shone a bright illumination similar to a small sun with harmless warmth that brought comfort
The ball is seen being held in porcelain palms similar to a snow
The person is a women
A transparent figure with her whole body beaming like a full moon in the darkest night. It is reassuring and gentle, like how light guides those who are lost
It's hard to identify her appearance since a white long veil was hiding her face, with the piece of soft fabric reaching her waist
However, anyone can intuition that she is breathtaking
The soul who seems to be astonished at the sight of the unknown individual, can only stare in amazement while the stoic woman smiled in amusement
They are surrounded by the sky that meets the sea. No area are found close at both individuals
The clouds large and soft were passing slowly with ripples from invisible water drop falling on the surface of the sea
The sea is empty, there are no living seen and only the reflection of the blue sky filled with the grace of clouds
The women were hovering above the surface of the sea. Her white flowing dress floating above her barefoot, avoiding the touch of water
She is surrounded by colorful energy that came from the surrounding, as if she is the source of life itself
The woman tilted her head to the side, as if inspecting the ball of soul on her palms
"It is of great interest to me that you possess such intriguing qualities and characteristics. Would it be possible for you to be the ideal companion and confidant I require?"
The woman spoke, her voice soft like feathers yet strong like the wave in the ocean. Her voice echoes the place causing the water below her feet to create small ripples of acknowledgement
The ball of soul is silent, as it stared directly into the woman, unable to answer from the discovery. The woman smiles once again in amusement as if she understands the silence
"I am deeply saddened to inform you of your untimely demise. Nonetheless, I am eternally grateful for the kind and noble sacrifice you have made for the preservation of a life by saving that helpless black cat from oncoming danger. The ultimate sacrifice you made will not be in vain, as it has displayed your unwavering spirit and selflessness to the world."
The ball of soul was still silent, however this time they are bouncing on the palm of the woman, seemingly in disbelief
"The unfortunate suddenness of your passing is beyond words, and my utmost shock and sorrow are apparent at the abrupt change in your destined future. I am struggling to come to terms with the reality of your untimely death, and I can only hope that the knowledge of your noble sacrifice in saving another's life brings comfort to both you and myself."
The ball of soul slumped into the palms of the woman which caused her to grin behind her veil at the soul's reaction
"However. In light of your heroic and selflessness in saving the life of a dear friend, I have decided to grant you a second opportunity at life. The act of kindness you've displayed deserves recognition, and therefore, I hereby bestow upon you the gift of life once more. May you use this chance wisely, and continue to spread the seeds of compassion and empathy throughout your journey."
The ball of soul glows a little brighter in what seems to be an expression of appreciation causing the woman to hover her hand above it's head
"You will soon be transported to a new world, but don't worry, you won't be going empty-handed. Your unique qualities, strength, and resilience in the face of adversity have earned you a special gift that will serve you well in your new life. Please be prepared to face new challenges head-on with bravery and determination, as you embark on this next chapter of your journey. I have every faith in your abilities and know you will make the most of this opportunity."
The woman's palm suddenly glows in bright colors, similar to the energy that surrounds her while the ball of soul leans into the unexpected warmth of the illumination
"To express my gratitude, I offer you a special gift that no one else can copy or receive. It is a token of my appreciation for your selfless deeds, and I hope it serves as a reminder of the power of kindness and compassion in shaping our world. Take this gift and use it to your advantage, for it holds within it a unique power that will be a valuable asset in your new life. May this gift serve you well"
The glow stops as the woman then uses her pointing finger to gently poke the top of the soul
The moment her finger touch the soul. The surrounding is filled with colorful glitters as if bidding the soul goodbye
"Be mindful of the choices you make, young one. The world you find yourself in has been carefully crafted and should not be taken lightly. However, have no fear, for the path you walk is yours to forge. Make the most of it, and carry with you the lessons of your past life. May the blessings of the divine guide you on your journey."
The ball of soul glows bright causing the whole place to light up brighter from it's reflection, and suddenly the ball of soul disappears into thin air
There was a peaceful silence as the woman then turned to walk to the distance, but before she could take a few steps, she heard a voice booming behind her with so much superiority that it made the woman freeze
"I would like to hear your explanation for your actions regarding one of my offspring, if you don't mind"
The woman in the veil turned around and came to face another woman with luscious blue hair with a bit of white and green skin, her hazel green eyes were narrowed in slight anger as her green lips forming a frown. She was wearing a flower crown made out of plants and flowers with flowing dress with different hues of green, blue, brown and white
"•°Earthenia°•, it's been 1000 years"
The woman in the veil spoke in calmness as the woman with green skin scoffed childishly and crossed her long arms
"I demand an explanation from you, Elowa. How dare you take one of my precious children and then have the audacity to speak to me in a casual manner as if nothing happened!?"
Earthenia angrily glared at the woman in the veil
"My sincerest apologies, my dear friend. It has come to my attention that my dimensions are slowly falling apart, and I am in desperate need of an assistance to prevent it from happening."
Earthenia took deep breaths to calm her nerves down then stared seriously at Elowa, ignoring the way Elowa stole one of her creations for now
"I see. Would you be so kind as to elaborate? If you had asked me or anyone else for assistance, I am confident that we could have helped you before your dimensions began to fall apart. I would appreciate an explanation as to why you did not seek our assistance in this instance and instead seek help from a lost soul, a mortal and one of my creation"
"I understand that your creation is very important to you and I do not want to take away any more of your valuable time"
"Elowa, I will not tolerate any further delays. It is imperative that you provide me with a precise account of what transpired, and with haste. I am more than willing to assist you in this matter. Nevertheless, I must emphasize that taking my child without my prior approval was not advisable, and for that, I expect an apology from you."
Elowa sighed then nodded her head in understanding
"I am thoroughly aware and acknowledge my mistake, and I sincerely apologize again for the inconvenience caused. And now, I would like to start from the beginning and provide an accurate account of the situation."

The sound of soft giggles were heard at a place full of broken things that could either be used or changed
It was a peaceful evening with the place so quiet and silent, the only sound is the breeze blowing gently and the crickets under the shine of the new moon
A man together with a woman heard the soft giggles, in confusion they went out of their home only to face a small bundle of baby in a basket in front of their doorsteps
"Oh! Another baby! And it's a girl!" The woman cheered as she gently picked up the baby in her arms that is being cradled by pastel pink color piece of cloths, expressing her gender without needing to see
The woman turned to the man besides her with a large grin, her eyes showing merit and warmth of a gentle person in soul and heart
"We should adopt her too Ed"
The man, Ed, signed with a sad smile as he lean to look closely at the baby. A happy smile form on his face when the baby made a grabby hand motion with gurgling noises
He reaches his hand to the baby's face, his hand immediately grabbed by the baby who played with his fingers while smiling brightly
"We should, whoever left her and him have a reason to, let's come and warm inside, Edna dear" Ed agreed as he gesture the woman to come inside their home
The old couple knows that there must be a reason two babies appeared on their junkyard since the place we're far from any cities. The couple did not mind taking care of such cute babies, in fact they have been dreaming to have their own little family, so they openly accept the fact that they will take care of the babies with open arms
"Jay would be delighted to have a little sister!" Edna said in excitement as she went inside their home with Ed trailing behind her
"What is her name?"
Edna looks at the pastel colored piece of clothing, searching for the name that is hopefully put on it
"Irene"
Edna smiled as she read the name that is attached to the clothes, her eyes trailing to the innocent warm grey orbs full of twinkling stars
"Irene? Hm, what a beautiful name" Ed commented as Edna gently handed him the cheerful baby girl
"Welcome to the family. Irene Walker"
Little Irene let out a soft cute giggle then she smiled brightly
A light of the new moon went through the protection of the window, illuminating the baby whose smile only brighten from the help of the light
Her grey orbs shone like a million of stars, pink flush appearing on her cheek and a cute smile on her face
At that moment, Ed and Edna felt their chest warmth at the sight
"How adorable!"
