This is my first fanfiction. I have the fanfiction written down on a notebook on mine, so I basically have some parts of the fanfic planned out, but during some chapters I might ask for your opinion or some things that you want to happen. Some of the characters may be out of character and you can tell me if I'm doing a good or bad job with their personalities. Anyway, I have the game Harvest Moon: A New Beginning and in one of the save files, I'm going for Neil while on the other save file, I'm going for Allen. I guess this fanfic could be a mix of both save files. Hope you enjoy! :)

Chapter 1: Introductions

The red-headed soon to be farmer was heading her way to the town of the farm she was to be taking over. Her name was Rose. Her hair was a ruby-red and was in a bun, due to her becoming hot whenever it was down. Her eyes were a sapphire blue and she has white peachy skin. She wore her work outfit.

the frightened redhead had become lost on her way to Echo Town and was now stumbling upon the forest, unsure of where she was going. "H-hello?" She called out. 'As if anybody's going to be here,' she groaned. It was dark outside, when it started to drizzle."What in the-" she was interrupted when a raindrop fell on her nose."Oh no!" She exclaimed as she started running, trying to avoid the falling rain. She couldn't see clearly and eventually tripped of a root above the ground."Eep!" She squealed as she hit the wet grass.

When she tried to get up, excruciating pain could be felt from her ankle and she fell back down."Oww.."She hissed in pain. Tears started to fill her eyes as the pain stayed."I-it hurts so much!" She said to nobody in particular. Shuffling was heard behind a nearby tree and a small gasp escaped the farmer's mouth. She tried desperately to get up, but the pain in her ankle said otherwise." You alright?" A voice called out."I c-can't walk..." Rose whimpered."Hold on, I'm going to help you." The voice reassured her. Rose squealed as she was carried bridal style and then brought over to the clinic.

At The Clinic:

When Rose opened her eyes, she noticed a young blonde man looking at her with a strict expression on his face. His eyes widened as he saw her try to sit up in the bed."Where..." Rose looked around."You're in Echo Town's clinic," The young man started, relieved she woke up."Who are you?" He asked her as he gently sat her up and leaned her on the wall."I'm Rose. I was... supposed to become a farmer here. T-thank you very much for helping me..."She smiled gratefully."It's nothing. I'm Neil."He explained, taking in her details."You were probably lost in the forest."He stated."Yes, I was."Rose started. She tried to get out of the bed, when she winced at the pain in her ankle.

"Are you crazy!?"Neil scowled."Wa-huh?" Rose exclaimed, frightened at his sudden change in emotion."You're not even-" He was interrupted by another man's voice."Visiting time is over,Neil. The clinic is far from closed and I should be asleep by now." An older man appeared beside Neil. He was the Town's doctor which people call Klaus. He took a look at the farmer." I see you've awoken," He started. Rose nodded."Either way, you'll have to go back to sleep. You're not going anywhere at this time." He explained quite strictly."You're just going to LEAVE her down here for Goddess-knows-how-long until-" Neil argued, when the doctor interrupted once again."That's how it has to be."Klaus stated, annoyed."She's had enough for today." He turned to the farmer."I didn't get your name."He demanded."I'm Rose. I'm going to become the farmer of town."She expained."Humph."The doctor took in her details."Good luck with that."

"W-what's that s-supposed to m-mean?"She asked, slightly annoyed at Klaus' personality. Klaus ignored her and gave her a scowl. Neil only watched, shocked at how the farmer retorted back without hesitation. Everyone in town was so used to Klaus opening his big mouth, that nobody dared to argue with him, for they would be punished with a long lecture."Leave,"Klaus told Neil."and don't come back tomorrow. I'll tell Dunhill to pick the girl up."He explained."Alright, alright."Neil groaned as he left without saying goodbye."You should be healed by tomorrow."The doctor told the farmer."Are you hungry?"He asked."I-I'll be alright." The farmer assured him, frightened at what would happen if she said she hadn't eaten at all that day."Good night, then."He bid her as he walked up the stairs to his living quarters."N-night..." Rose said to nobody in particular when the lights flickered off.'Where's a stuffed cow when you need them?' She thought as she turned in the bed. Rose was slightly scared of he dark, so she had always slept with a mini cow plush by her side. After a while, she finally fell asleep in the clinic.

I'm sorry if this was short, but I didn't want to write too much. In the fanfic, all of the characters are already unlocked, just in case you were wondering why Klaus was in the first chapter. I really hope you enjoyed and please comment! I would really appreciate it. By the way, I might have a snow day tomorrow and not go to school, so I can write another chapter. I promise this fanfic gets way more interesting the further this goes! Thank you for reading!
