Rachel was currently stomping around on her farm. If she was an anime character, her face would be red and steam coming out of her ears. She was sick of it. That jerk Neil kept on going onto her property without permission and even would have the nerve to insult her as well. It happens nearly every day now and it's pretty annoying.

Suddenly, a light bulb went off in Rio's head. After completing a recent restoration plan, there was a new area of land west of the town. It would take a bit of work, but it'll be worth it. A mischievous grin could be seen on Rachel's face as she raced towards her workshop.


Neil woke up grumbling. He was not a morning person at all. Besides, he had the gut feeling that something was up. Despite this, he completed his morning routine and set off to prepare his stall in town. However, it was when he went outside that he realized exactly what was wrong.

His house was not where it used to be. Normally it was down the road from the general store, now it was surrounded by trees. He instead saw a small dirt road, which he decided to follow. It was while walking and seeing the decorations along the path that made the situation click in his head. He furrowed his eyebrows and shouted…

"RACHEL!"

I wrote this many months ago, but I never felt like posting it until now. I've been super busy at school, plus Fire Emblem Fates came out recently and those games ate up whatever free time I had left.

If you don't understand what Rachel did in this fic, here's an explanation:

From what I remember, Neil says some pretty rude things to your character while on your farm. I remember being really angry about that. That is why I moved his house to the northwest corner of the west side of town when I unlocked it in-game. If he wants to be rude to me, he can live as far away from me as he can. XP I tried my best to keep the characters in-character, but I don't think I succeeded. I haven't played the game in forever.
