It has been a tradition that the Summers have a yearly vacation picked by a member of the family, they've been to Tokyo as Agatha requested once, to Rio de Janeiro, Sara's dream vacation spot, and that year, the year 2003 was Belerick's turn to pick, his two older brothers had already picked two years prior and decided to visit Universal Studios in California two consecutive times. This year however the youngest Summers picked a much simpler destination, Central Park. Belerick once heard stories from his Grandma about his father's great times at the park and was inspired to have the same, Rafael was quiet delighted knowing at least one of his sons shares the same sentiment he had, once in his life, the love for nature and parks. He still remember running around the park with his dog back in the day when they stay in New York city for vacation, and he is excited for his sons to feel the same feeling he had.

Although Belerick that time was only 6 years old, his mother and grandmother noted he is smarter way beyond his years, Agatha and Sara quickly tag teamed to dress up Belerick nicely, as soon as they're done, he hated it and instead grabber his favorite jacket with the Sailor Moon Neptune design, Rafael gave him a little smile and ruffle his hair. "Even he hates your taste, Honey." Rafael teased his wife planting a sweet kiss on her lips.

"Can we take Oscar with us!" Ross screeched as he is almost been dragged by Oscar, their Siberian Husky. "Of course, Ross, there's a dog park in there, so why don't you grab a Frisbee and we'll play with Oscar." Rafael said, this is one of the very few times he would drop his tough exterior and be the sweet, thoughtful and fun father that he really is, and both Rossitier and Cassidus loves this side of him.

They've been out in the park for almost the whole morning now, Agatha and Sara on the picnic mat proud by all the food they've made and delighted to see Rafael and his kids bonding, they both knew it's been tough not only for the kids to have a very strict father, but for Rafael also, so this precious moment is really to be treasured by all of them. They were all distracted by their own things that they failed to notice Belerick moving father and farther away from them, getting distracted from all the new things revolving around him, actually following a squirrel who just snatched a butter cookie from their picnic basket.

It was Ross who noticed Belerick was not in the area anymore, he has been taking tabs on where he is at and just five minutes ago he saw him sitting by their picnic basket munching on his favorite butter cookies baked by their mom, after about five minutes of taking his eyes off him he searched the crowd again to check for his youngest brother, but he was out of sight, he paused to search the crowd harder, holding the frisbee and causing the game with his father, Cass and Oscar into a halt. His father asked him what happened, he explains he can't find Belerick anywhere, that he was just sitting by the basket a moment ago and now he's gone. Both Agatha and Sara put down the books they just bought and had been comparing with each other to join the others to search for the missing Summers, Agatha even called all their helpers available on their New York Mansion to come to the park and help.

The squirrel caught his young attention, a new specie of animal he never saw before his eyes before, he recognized it tho, the creature he usually sees in books and cartoons he watches from time to time, the brown little creature turned it's eyes back to him, before moves hastily towards the butter cookie jar, taking a hold of one and running away with it in one swift motion, he followed the critter as it make it's way into the unfamiliar woods, zigzagging it's way into bushes and trees with the littlest Summers right on it's tails. It wasn't long until Belerick lost sight of the critter, it disappeared into thin air, the sounds it makes melted into the scary voice of the forest, he stood petrified and sought shelter by a big boulder as he try to find his way back to his parents. He's been trying to steel himself from crying, but various noises, screeches did him in, he hugged his leg and placed his chin over it, and started to cry, he cried louder each sob as he realizes he's all alone in an unfamiliar forest. Suddenly, a big movement from his right side caught his attention, the bush was moving aggressively, all he did was to plant his face further down his knees as if to hide himself, until a voice called him out. He looked up at the human voice he heard, and there he saw a boy, not that older than him, his emerald eyes shinning as it was hit by the light from the soon setting sun. "What are you doing in here? Are you a wolf boy?" He asked his emerald eyes sparkles even more, but the boy quickly saw the expensive and modern jacket he was wearing and was visibly disappointed. "Awww man, I thought for a second you're a wolf boy!" The boy said approaching him and guiding him to stand up. "What's your name?" He asked. But Belerick's voice seemed too dried up from all the crying and sobbing he did earlier. "Not, answering huh?" The boy said, looking once again at his jacket. "Sailor. Moon. Neptune. Okay, that's what I'm gonna call you!" He announced. "And you can call me Squirrel boy! I love squirrels, my family and I are camping not too far from here. You'll get cold here, so you better come with me."the squirrel boy offered, interlacing his hands into Belerick and practically dragging him back to their camp.

As soon as he got back his parents saw he was dragging one other person with him. His father quickly went to him, kneel down and asked what happened, the boy explained everything he knew, and the mother decided to take him in for the night before going to the police tomorrow. The boy never left Belerick's side. "I like squirrels cause they're small but fast! and they're pretty cute, like you." He said making marshmallow s'mores handing one to Belerick. "Thank you." Belerecik finally spoke a word. "So you can talk!" the boy said in surprise. "Yes, Yes I can." he replied. They spent the night talking besides the camp fire until the boy's father told them to finally rest and go to bed. "I like your eyes, they're so brown, like a squirrel's fur." the boy said. "I like your emerald eyes" he quickly replied."What's an emerald?" he asked shifting his position to properly face Belerick. "It's an expensive green stone, my grandma and mother owns like, a lot of it." he explained. The boy only gasped at the new information he learned. "Hey, what's your name, Sailor Moon Neptune?" he asked scooting a little bit more closer into Belerick's face. "Summers.." Belerick started, but before he can even finish his sentence he hard a loud ruckus outside that alerted them. "I can hear dogs? Mom, Dad! What's happening?" the boy asked as not of them make their way outside of their tent. There he saw Oscar, their dog, running up to him and licking his face wet with his saliva, ans soon enough Ross and Cass holding flashlights cam crashing in to the camp site with Rafael and Sara not too far behind. "Baby! Oh my god!" Sara exhaled like she's been holding her breath this whole time.

After explaining what happened and clearing things out, the commotion ended and Belerick was returned to his family, Rafael had already called his mother, and is relieved to know they found the missing child. Rafael was visibly upset at Belerick but once he saw his youngest crying, softened his expression and hug him tightly apologizing for not paying attention to him earlier.

It was already dead in the night so the search party built by the Summer's helpers decided to quickly head back to the mansion, both Ross and Cass are asleep in their father's arms, once they found their beloved younger brother, exhaustion quickly took over and defeated them. Belerick's eyes were fized on squirrel boy as he was being carried away by his mom, he waved him goodbye, squirrel boy ran after him, pulling him down from his mothers arms and handing him a gold coin with a squirrel design on it. "I hope we see each other again soon!" he said.

"And now fifteen years later, here we are." Aurelion said, they finished breakfast not too long ago, and asked Belerick to come walk him and give him a tour of their big mansion. Belerick turned to look at his familiar emerald eyes. "Yeah, who would've have thought we'd see each other again, squirrel boy." He said smiling at him. "I still have your gold coin, you know?" He continued. "Really? That's nice, I lost all of that coins after we moved into a new house." He replied. "I still remember that soft brown eyes of yours, you know? Plus, you didn't grew any taller so you still have that resembling look from sailor moon neptune." He said slightly teasing Belerick. "Oh shut up! You show off!" Belerick replied with a little punch into the taller guys arms.
