Lantern Fly

A little girl finds a beautiful, winged bug, she marvels at its beauty and with joy and excitement begins her walk home with her wonderful little bug only to find that people have been killing them off in the masses due to them being deemed invasive. Horrified and heard broken, she holds a living lantern fly in her hands amongst the graveyard of Lantern Flies in her neighborhood.
