Disclaimer: I do not own Harvest Moon or any of its characters.
I'm rewriting Everlasting because I think I did a crappy job on the last one (Even though there were 50 good reviews and two bad ones, I look at the ones that make my writing improve and I'm listening to those reviews!) and I'll make it more detailed, realistic and better and I'll change the ending just so it'll keep you guessing.
I still can't do italicized lettering! So the thoughts will be in quotations but I'll say she thought or he thought so you know it's not out loud.
This is based on the Back to Nature version of Harvest Moon so don't tell me that I have all the relationships are messed up and Mary is suppose to be called Maria or whatever. (Also I have to change some things to fit the story.)
Prologue: If you haven't played BTN yet. Jack used to go to his Grandpa's farm for vacation when he was a little kid. He met a little girl there and he promised that he'd come back. Years later, Jack's Grandfather dies and he comes to inherit the farm while the little girl he met long ago has grown up to be one of the five or err...four pretty girls he has to choose from...(I'm sorry but Mary don't look that good.)
Jack arrived from the city and was headed toward his new farm. When he got there, it wasn't as he remembered it. There were weeds everywhere and rocks and tree stumps. It was basically a dump with a little mutt running around everywhere.
"This place is..." Jack stopped when he saw a short fat man wearing red come in.
"Hi! You must be Jack. I'm the mayor. I remember when you were a little boy and you used to come here every summer. I'm really sorry for your loss. Your grandfather was the only one who made this farm a great place. When he died, you can see that this place looks well...uh...like this." Mayor Thomas said.
"Yea, I can tell."
"Anyway, I'm sorry to say this but to get to the point, if this farm isn't back in the shape that your grandfather put it in three years, then you will have to leave." The mayor frowned. "But I wish you good luck!" and he left.
"Ok...He was a bit...short." Jack thought. "I wonder what the girls must look like then." He imagined short little fat girls running around and he sighed but was he in for a surprise later. He looked at the puppy running around the farm. Jack picked it up and looked at the collar. "Koro, so that's your name boy?" Jack said and he put Koro back down who started running in circles again. He picked out some of the tools, cleared some land and went out to the supermarket for some seeds.
As he was walking down the street, he noticed some of the stores, blacksmith, winery, library, clinic and finally the supermarket. "There are not a lot of things to do here." Jack thought.
He walked in the doorway to find a small little shop with some items on tables. On the side, there was a bigger rucksack and cooking stuff on the other side with seeds in the middle. He noticed a middle aged man talking to the clerk.
"Just put it on my tab." He said.
"But..." The shopkeeper started.
"I promise I'll pay you back soon." He said again.
"Ok...I guess." The shopkeeper looked like he was too scared to say no.
Suddenly a girl came out.
"DUKE!!!" Karen said.
"Yes Miss Karen?" Duke replied.
"You should pay." She told him.
"I'll will..." and Duke headed toward the door. Jack looked at him sort of funny. "What are you staring at?" He said.
"You should pay." Jack replied.
"Not you too. FINE! I'll pay." And he went to pay his tab and left.
"Thank you." The girl came over to Jack. "I haven't seen you around before. What's your name?"
"I'm...uh...Jack. Yea...I'm Jack." He suddenly blanked out on his own name. Karen laughed.
"Ok well I'm Karen. It's nice to meet you. My dad owns the supermarket but he's kind of a pushover as you could see from at first."
"I see..." Jack replied.
"Yea, well if you need anything just call me!" Karen said and she went back inside.
"She was cute." Jack thought. "I guess the girls here are not all short and fat."
AN: Sorry this chapter is so short but I said I was rewriting it to be better and please review.
