"There are five red dots in the south part of this area."

Keith, a six year old boy who was forced to mature because of his circumstances.

His ability is [Mapping Search].

Though he can make maps and search for the items he wants, it is not detailed mapping and only a country sized map covered with red dots most of the time.

It is a bit confusing since there are no city names in the map.

There is a black cursor showing the location of the ability user.

"To be honest, his ability is OP." Loki said as they gathered round.

Kristoff nods.

Del also pounders and nods.

"True."

Only Keith bite his lower lip.

"Please don't say something that is not true."

Because of his incompetence, his mother decided to throw him out so she can save herself.

If only he is useful, why would his mother throw him out?

"Yeah kid. We are match made in heaven." Loki chuckles and rubs his head.

Keith frowns.

Del also frowns and stands behind Loki in a protective stance.

".....Del, you and your jealousy knows no bound." Loki laughs.

"Keith, you are very powerful. But that is if you will be used to the fullest of your ability. We will help you in return, you can't use your ability to harm us." Loki said.

Kristoff looks at the small boy.

"Do your best."

Keith looks down at his white palm.

"Am I really...useful?"

Kristoff nods.

"Useful."

Loki puts his arms around Kristoff's shoulder.

"See. Even this weirdo says so."

Keith looks up at them.

Loki has a fox-like smile and looks dangerous to trust but Kristoff is different.

He has a serious face all throughout.

He doesn't sound very comforting but he gives Keith a sense of security he needed right now.

Keith nods.

"I will do my best."

***

Del looks back at the small boy behind who is trying his best to follow them while they are scouting the area.

"Should I carry you?" Del asks.

Keith shakes his head.

"I'm fine."

Kristoff looks at Del.

"Save your pity for those who already gave up life. This one doesn't need it."

Del lips twitch.

"Just asking. No need to get mad."

Loki elbows him.

"They look like father and son by now."

Del nods.

Kristoff frowns.

"Let's stop here."

Everyone nods.

Del stands up checking the area while the three crouch down planning.

"Start." Kristoff looks at Keith.

Keith nods.

"[Item search : Food supply]"

The map is as big as A1 paper(59cmx84cm) in size.

They first locate the black arrow. It means the location of the ability user.

There are five red dots ahead of them.

Kristoff pats Keith's shoulder.

"This time. Locate zombies."

Keith nods.

"[Item search: Zombies]

Another A1 size brown paper appeared in thin air and landed in Keith's hand.

Keith frowns.

"This is so useless."

The maps are tainted in red.

Kristoff gives the map to Loki.

Del came closer too.

"What do you say?" Loki looks up at Del.

Del squints his eyes and nods.

"These three dots have the lighter red dots."

"Loki."Kristoff looks at Loki.

"My turn."

Loki smiles.

"[Maze Puzzle:Del]"

Loki looks grim.

"Urgh"

"What's wrong?" Del asks.

"The first dot is a bit troublesome. The maze is being blocked faster than the normal speed."

"Maybe there is an evolved Zombie. Try the next one." Kristoff said.

"Okay. [Maze Puzzle : Del]"

After 5 minutes Loki's eyes turn back to normal.

"This one is easy. Del alone can go and back alone."

"Good. We will go to this one." Del said.

"Should we try the other dot?" Keith asks.

"I can only use my ability 3 times a day. We should save it when we need it." Loki said.

"My turn. [Lucky Dice]"

A huge black dice appear out of thin air.

Then Kristoff rolls the dice in the air.

It stops after rolling five times then white numbers jumbled up and down.

The final number is 81.

"Lucky!"

Kristoff said as he clenched his fist.

[Lucky Dice additional buff. Strength +6. Accept? Decline?]

"Strength +6." Kristoff said.

"Carry your weapon. It will increase the strength buff." Del said.

They all carry their metal bats while Keith carries some peebles.

He is too small to carry anything else.

Instead of injecting what he saw to their minds, Loki explained the details of what he saw.

Where's the puzzle is stronger and where is it weaker.

"You can really see it?" Keith is amazed.

"Kid, your ability is more amazing." Loki laughs seeing Keith's admiring gaze.

"You are the most impressive." Del said.

"Okay big guy. Stop that." Loki blushed and pinched Del.

Keith blinks and looks at them.

"They are lovers." Kristoff said.

"Ah?" Keith looks at the two.

Loki is beet red while Del is smirking happily.

Kristoff nods.

"I see." Keith smiles.

"Okay. Stop talking. Let's start." Del said.

Kristoff gives the gun to Keith.

"Hold it."

"But this is important!" Keith said in shock.

He saw the other men in his previous party who had a gun and they treasure it better than human lives. That is why he knows that the thing in his palm is no longer the same toy gun he once held precious.

"Yes. It is important." Kristoff nods and walks forward.

Keith is confused.

Why does he need to make him hold the most important weapon in this place?

Cause he is tired and needs someone to carry it? Though it is not light. It is not as heavy to think of it as a burden.

"Keith, faster." Loki called.

Keith looks ahead.

They are three grown men in front.

Though Loki is the only one looking back at him, he felt a sense of belonging.

"Um." Keith clenched on the gun. Hide it inside his backpack and run forward.

You can never stay in one place.

Move forward.

He feels like that is what Kristoff's telling him.

Kristoff looks back only for a short second.

"I can tell that you are concerned with the kid. Do you like children?" Del asks.

Kristoff shakes his head.

"I don't hate or like children but….if I am going to have one...I will need to learn how to care for them."

Del looks at Kristoff.

"I thought you said you are gay?"

"I am."

Del sighs.

"I hate to break it up to you but it's impossible for men to have children."

"Not even with an ability?"

Kristoff smiles widen

Del eyes dilated.

"Are you honest?"

Then his eyes trail to Loki.

Del gulps down.

"What?" Loki tilts his head and asks

Del puts his two hands on each of his shoulders.

"Do you...Will you….carry my children?"

Loki laughs at him.

"Don't turn stupid."

Loki grins.
