Disclaimer: I don't own harvest moon. I own my character and my slightly alternate universe.

I stumbled along, vaguely aware that there was no longer snow on the ground. There was a field ahead. Maybe I could find somebody who could help me.

"Ouch!" There was a sharp pain in my stomach. I collapsed. I looked at the bruises on my arms. Where had I gotten these? What happened to me?

I need to get up. If i could just find somebody who can help me. Anyone. A stream. I can get a drink. If I can just find the strength to make it there.

"Where am I?"

"Wow. I haven't seen anybody collapse before. Are you okay?"

"I need some water."

"I don't have any water right now. Raguna is watering the fields with it."

"Ragu? You have food?"

"..."

Who is this lady? She looks so familiar. And so like me. She has light blonde hair and bright blue eyes. And where am I? I am too tired. Must sleep again. So thirsty.

"She should be fine. Just be sure that she gets lots of bed rest. And Mist, please let Raguna take care of her."A male voice that seemed loving and compassionate.

"I'm perfectly capable of managing myself Doctor." The same woman spoke again. Her voice sounded like something out a dream. Or a lost memory.

"Of course you are honey, but we should listen to the Doctor." Another male voice. It too sounds like something I have heard before.

Who are these people? A doctor?

"Help me," my voice sounds so weak. Can they hear me?

"Shh. Everything will be fine. You are in capable hands now." The first voice. He leans over me. I see a doctor's mask. He must be the doctor they are speaking about. I wonder what his name is?

"Get well soon so you can help out with the harvest this year." Help out? This woman is so strange. I am just passing through. Plan to leave long before the harvest. As soon as possible actually.

"Honey, she probably isn't going to stay. And I can manage on my own."That voice. I can't quite put my finger on it.

"Call me if her condition worsens Raguna."The doctor again.

"Of course we will Doctor. Be careful of monsters on your way home." The woman. I heard the door shut. What did she mean by monsters? Is that what attacked me?

"I thought I told you I hadn't seen any monsters yet." I assume his name is Raguna. Hadn't seen any monsters yet? Where were we?

Who are these people? And why am I here. I remember falling. What happened to me?

"How long?"

"You have been asleep for a few days. It really is a miracle you made it through Miss..." Raguna stopped short, as though waiting for me to say something.

He wants to know my name. What is my name?

"I don't know."

"That certainly is a funny name."

"Mist, why don't you go make some food for our guest? I'm sure she is very hungry." The woman's name is Mist.

The woman must be called Mist. I assume the man who left is the doctor.

"Who are you?"

"I am Raguna. This is my wife Mist. You are safe here. This is our farm." A farm? I don't belong on a farm. How did I get here. Is this where I was going when I was attacked?

"I made some sandwiches for everyone! Eat up Miss I don't know!"

"Thank you Mist." Raguna seemed to be showing sarcasm. Mist nodded in gratitude.

I suppose this isn't so bad. At least the food is edible. Hopefully.

A/N This is really just an introduction to my fan fiction. This is my first time writing one so reviews would be nice. If reviewers want me to, I can write about Raguna and Mist and more on why the caves have opened up here in a prequel to this.

This story will be set in Mineral Town. However, there are a few things I must address:

1) Raguna and Mist have moved to the Mineral Town farm because some caves opened up on the mountain.

2) The original character in my story will occasionally visit Kardia and Forget-Me-Not-Valley.

3) A few of the HMDSC characters will be "visiting" Mineral Town. More on that later.

4) I will be unable to update constantly. I am a very busy person.
