AN: Hi! This is an AU Harvest Moon story, so it doesn't match up with the game (AU means alternate universe... I think. *shot*) There are... um... *scrolls down and looks* 5 pairings in this story. They are: Jill x Skye, Claire x Gray, Chelsea x Will, Akari/Angela x Gill, and Hikari/Molly x Wizard. I'm really not sure if this is going to be a HUGE chapter story, or just a 5 small 3 shots or something that relate to eachother. Either way, enjoy! (Please note that I cannot be held responsible for any damage done to readers by bad writing, lack of creativity, etc. because this is only my 2nd or 3rd real fanfic. You have been warned.)

Disclaimer: I don't own Harvest Moon. Do i really have to say that? I mean, I'm not even that good at the game! Would I be a creater of a game I'm not good at? ... Ok, I might, but still. Just to be clear, again, I repeat, I don't own Harvest Moon. On to the story! Finally!

Once upon a time, in a land far away, there lived on a farm 5 sisters. The sisters were not all blood related, but really orphans who had met at the orphanage they used to live in when they were young. However, the girls were truly sisters at heart, and that was enough for them. They ran the farm they inhabited, and they ran it very successfully at that. When they had first left the orphanage, most people who knew about their plan to become farmers scoffed and said that they should've just stayed at the orphanage, for it was hard enough for big, strong men to handle a farm, so how could 5 young, naive, and stupid girls handle a farm?

Well, the girls could handle a farm. They split up all the work to their advantages, and it worked very well.

The oldest sister at just recently 18, Jill, figured out how much money and food they'd have if they sold these eggs and kept those eggs, and how much sunlight and water were the best for the seeds they were planting. She was very skilled in arithmatic, and would always know how much money they should spend on what, and how much profit they'd make. In short, she was the logical one and helped organize a strategy to to their life.

The 2nd oldest sister, who was younger than Jill by about a season, was Claire, who could get bargains on anything and everything. She could turn chocolate that was usually sold at 100G a bar into chocolate that was sold at 100G for 5 bars. She was stubborn enough to not back down, and smart enough to know when it was time to back down. She helped make sure the family lived comfortably but didn't go broke.

The middle and 3rd sister at 17 and about season and a half younger than Claire, Chelsea was the best with animals. Once, a recently caught mare had broken out of its stable and started to go on a rampage, running through everything and anyone who would be in its way. Chelsea, however, was able to calm down the horse a minute after she and the mare had crossed paths. As a reward, the girls were given the mare to keep as their own.

The 4th and 5th sisters, Akari and Hikari respectively, were the only blood sisters-17 year old twins who were younger than Chelsea by about 3 weeks, actually. Akari was the powerhouse, the one who was able to clear the fields of branches and stones whenever they appeared and collect enough materials to get the carpenters to build whatever the family needed with the lumber she herself had collected and save a fortune. Hikari was the youngest and the one who enjoyed looking at the stars and sky so much, she could predict if it was going to be rainy or sunny the next day, or even if there was going to be a raging typhoon or blizzard- and when you lived as a farmer, weather reports like those were always helpful beyond comparison.

The 5 sisters all had some skill in overall farming and ranching, and they lived a happy and content life. However, they all longed for one thing. They were all missing something that was a very crucial detail to a young lady's happiness- a lover. Finally, their wishes were fulfilled- but not without complications.

Hardworking and reasonable Jill fell in love with a womanizing thief.

Hotheaded and stubborn Claire fell in love with a rude apprentice blacksmith.

Modest and friendly Chelsea fell in love with the noble prince of the land.

Funny and active Akari fell in love with the mayor's cold son.

Shy and sweet Hikari fell in love with a mysterious wizard.

The sisters had gotten what they had longed for. But others might not approve of the sisters with the ones they love... that is, if the sisters realize what they feel first.

Review please! Remember, reviews are nice, constructive criticism is good, but flames shall be used to burn the flamers' souls. JK. That would stink too much, and I, being a newbie fanfic writer, don't have that power- yet. *DUN DUN DUN*

PS. I know this story might be a bit *coughverycough* cheesy. (Once upon a time? Noble prince? MYSTERIOUS WIZARD? Curse you cheesy brain!)
