"Do it. Please."
"Are you sure?"
Akari studied her face in the mirror, with the hairdresser poised behind her with a pair of big scissors.
"Yes. Cut it. All of it."
The hairdresser sighed and began cutting her hair. Akari mentally ticked off the items she needed in her head. She'd bought:
Large bandages to hide her breasts, hair dye to hid her hair colour, contacts, and boys jeans and t-shirts. She'd also bought some makeup and a first aid kit, in case she needed to change her appearance even more if she looked feminine as a boy and to avoid going to the doctors.
"Done!" The hairdresser announced.
Akari opened her eyes and smiled. The makeup wouldn't be necessary. If Akari didn't know better she would have thought she was a boy with very long eyelashes. She thanked the hairdresser, paid and picked up her backpack, heading to her home quickly.
Upon entering the flat she got out the hair dye and started to apply it to her hair. Running her hands through the short silky locks she made sure every inch of her hair was covered with dye. Half an hour later she rinsed the dye out of her hair till the water ran clear. Then she wrapped a towel round her head and stripped off. Carefully she stepped into the boxers she had bought today, plain black. Then she tugged on the baggy jeans which hid her leg and hip shape. As she tore through the plastic to get to the bandages she removed her bra and threw it onto the floor. Then she applied the bandages expertly, turning to check in the mirror. Pulling the t-shirt over her head her chest looked as flat as a boys. Then she slipped on the contacts and checked her reflection. Before she had been 5'7, curvy with chocolate hair and amethyst eyes. Now she was a 5'7, blond haired male with brown eyes. Her slightly baggy worn blue jeans and black t-shirt perfectly disguised her female figure. She decided on the name Luke, purely because she had been watching Star wars at the time. She grabbed her blue backpack and set out for the ferry that would take her to Castanet Island and her new life.
She paid her fair and walked onto the deck of the boat, the wind fiddling her short hair. A girl with a neat brown bob joined her leaning against the rail.
"Hey." The girl smiled.
"Huh? Oh hey." Akari replied, keeping her voice low in tone.
"I'm Lumina." The girl giggled, batting her eyelashes at her.
"Uh I'm Luke." She introduced. (A/N from now on I will refer to Akari as Luke and he instead of her)
Lumina smiled crossing her arms to push up her breasts. "Well at least she thinks I'm a boy" Luke thought.
"So where are you headed Luke?" Lumina flirted.
"Wha-oh, Castanet Island." Luke stuttered.
"Oh." Lumina was clearly disappointed. "I'm heading to Forget-me-not valley myself. That's where my mansion is."
Mansion?! "You have a mansion?" Luke exclaimed. "Oh sorry, didn't mean to shout."
"No it's okay. Hehe you're pretty cute. Why don't you come to Forget-me-not valley with me?"
"O-oh, well I, um, I'm going to work on the island." Luke stammered.
"Ooh! Doing what?" Lumina asked putting her hand on his arm.
"Oh, well I'm going to be the new farmer..."
"Ooh! Farmers are so hot. They get really ripped from all that work. My friend Celia married one called Jack. He was so cute! If only I'd gotten there first..." Lumina seemed to be in some sort of daydream.
"Um, excuse me? Miss Lumina?"
"What? Oh nothing. Say do you know if they have an inn on Castanet Island?"
"Um...I think so..." Luke was interrupted by an announcement blaring from the speaker.
"All passengers for Castanet Island be ready to disembark please."
"Ah, I will bid you goodbye then Miss Lumina." And Luke turned and walked out onto the fertile land of her new home, Castanet Island.
Waiting for her was a young man with light platinum blonde hair, startling blue eyes and a critical expression. He looked Luke up and down once and then walked towards him. "Are you the new farmer, Luke? Ah good. My name is Gill Hamleton."
