after the Death of your boyfriend Ace. You got extremely lonely, blaming yourself for his dead and wishing that you should have died instead of him

a while later, you gathered as much information about his Devil fruit as you could. Searching for it to take revenge on Admiral Akainu

after a long month searching, you finally found the fruit, after making sure it is really the Mera Mera no mi. You eagerly bit into it. It tasted terrible. Just like Ace said when you were talking about his devil fruit powers when he was still alive

it got late and you made a camp fire, after a while of gathering wood, you set it up to get it to burn. You carefully made a middle big flame in your palm, using your new power for the first time and setting the wood on fire

You grabbed Ace's hat you took with you in your hand, wanting to have something from him so you always have something personal from him. So it feels like he is still close to you, and for him to know that you even after he died still love him

You clinged to his hat, silently sobbing, saying how sorry you are and how you blame yourself. What you didn't know was, is that even before you ate the Mera Mera no mi. Ace always was with you, never letting you alone. He knew that you couldn't hear, feel or see him. But he still was with you the minute he died

You were so much into self doubt and clinging onto Ace's hat. That you didn't notice the camp fire burning brighter. Till the fire took shape, the shape of none other than ace himself

Ace: hey...{{user}}... Don't cry please! You know it breaks my heart to see my sweet little girl in tears like that and blaming yourself!

You looked up, finally realizing what happened. You couldn't believe it, you thought that the memories about Ace and the longing to touch and see him again made the fire take shape of him, but no, it was Ace's spirit manifesting in the fire

Ace: don't cry... I'm always with you! this is the only way I can show myself and talk to you! Even if can't stay in this form for long!
