Jill Almighty
Epilogue
Author's Note: I'm cramming now (homework) and it's late at night. But I suddenly got an idea! So I'll write it right away and continue it later on… Oh, and you might notice some of the situations resemble author, Chicken Yuki's stories. I didn't ask permission yet, but I will soon. And hopefully, he will allow me to let Jill be Jack's little sister in this story. XD
-------------
It was a quiet day in Flower Bud Village. The birds were singing, the squirrels were leaping, and… Wait, the goddess turned into stone!?!
Yes, the goddess had turned into stone; a lifeless, motion-less… dead thing.
But alas, there was one particular rancher who wouldn't give up hope, although he sounded like a person who was filled with the opposite of hope.
And he was Jamie.
The purple-haired transgender-like rancher, with a multi-colored poncho on his torso and a cowboy hat to go with it, was plowing his farm's fields with great determination.
"You'll see my beloved goddess… soon, you will be able to live, your skin will shine flawlessly, you'll sing your heartfelt tunes, you'll be flying in your lovely, flowing dress, and give life to the places wherein humans drain all energy from. You will be MY beautiful goddess once again…"
He reminisced on those times he and his beloved goddess would talk about how insensitive humans are to everything that she supported. But nevertheless the harvest goddess would always correct Jamie, and let him know that no one is perfect in this world.
"SHE was perfect" He thought while plowing a few squares of soil.
------------
Now on to our unsuspecting farmer girl once again…
Jill smiled happily as she checked the map of Flower-Bud Village.
The young farmer girl had brown hair tied in high pigtails, a red handkerchief around her neck, a light pink vest, a white shirt, white gloves, blue, denim shorts and red shoes.
"Big brother Jack told me this was the place. I never thought traveling alone would be so exciting!"
Jill happily hopped along the mountain, going down the range as carefully as she could. But then, as she made her way across the mountain, her attention was caught by a wooden notice board along the left side of the path.
She went closer and read it, tilting her head cutely as she did.
It read:
-------------
To the right- Harvest Goddess Spring
Watch your step!
Goddess and her sprites rumored to appear to those of pure heart.
------------
"Pure heart? How odd… Well, since I'm already here, I might as well visit this spring… Maybe I'll get to meet the goddess and her little sprites!"
So Jill continued her "follow the yellow brick road" journey towards the harvest goddess spring. Once she arrived, her heart started jumping in joy, as her eyes roamed around the beautiful scenery.
"This is just like a fairy tale… Only, it's real!"
After gazing around the beautiful spring, filled with a variation of flowers, mushrooms and lively, green vines, her eyes were directed towards a weird, but lovely statue.
"Oh my goodness! What a lovely statue! It almost looks like as if she were human... turned into stone that is"
She went closer and closer, still in a state of awe.
Nearer she crept, completely amazed by the splendor and detail of the piece of stone that lay before her.
…When all of a sudden, three little sprites jumped out from behind.
"HELLO THERE!" They greeted, with ever-perky voices.
With the sudden glomp by these magical creatures, Jill screamed real loud and fell right on top of the statue.
…Resulting in dreadfully ghastly results.
As Jill stood up from her sudden fall, she noticed that the beautiful statue was no longer there. Instead, little pieces of stone were scattered on the ground, with little hope of every being put together again.
"What… What have you done!?!" The yellow sprite said, as two of the sprites whimper towards the shattered pieces of the late-goddess.
"I-I'm very sorry for completely destroying the statue! It's just that… You… Things, jumped up to me from no where and…"
"You've killed the goddess!" The yellow one cried.
"Now what should we do!?! Harvest Moon can't go on without a goddess! Natsume will friggin' KILL US" The red one replied, pulling out some strands of his green hair.
Jill merely looked at them with great confusion, trying to put together this whole fiasco she just got herself into through her clumsiness.
"Natsume? Harvest Moon? What the heck are these things talking about!?" She thought. To restrain her curiosity, she asked them…
"What's the big deal? Isn't it just a statue? Can't you contact the artist to make it again if it's THAT important?"
The yellow one stopped running around in circles, and then suddenly switch his "the world is ending" face, into a serious one.
"Just… A… STATUE?! What do you mean, Just a statue!?!" He screamed at her.
"We-well, isn't it just some piece of rock carved into a figure?" Jill screamed back, still quite uncertain of what to do or say.
"You have no idea what you're talking about! That "statue" you broke isn't just a piece of carved rock, it's the HARVEST GODDESS!" The yellow one continued.
"Wh-WHAT!?! How the heck could… I mean… What…"
Finally, the silent blue one calmly went closer to her, and then nodded, trying to calm the others down a bit.
"Calm down guys. I'm sure she's just as confused and scared as you both are"
The red one looked at him in panic, and then screamed:
"WHAT DO YOU MEAN CALM DOWN? Natsume's gonna friggin EAT OUR heads off!!!" The red and yellow sprites continued their little debacle, whining and waving both of their tiny arms around like mad, Justin Timberlake fans.
"JUST SHUT UP!"
After the blue sprite screamed, the other two stopped their panicking, and tried to calm themselves down.
"Ok, listen up girl. We are the goddess's harvest sprites and YOU have just ruined the cursed goddess. Cursed you ask? Well, because of a few dilemmas she thought were world catastrophes, she said she won't return until she felt some human kindness and crap again. Your brother and another rancher, Jamie, agreed to help her wish come true. So, both are working hard to restore the goddess to her original self"
Jill's right eye twitched as she tried to process all that information in her brain.
"But- …"
The blue sprite cut her off and leaped on top of her head.
"Shush! I'm not finished yet. Okay, now with that information in mind, you now know that the statue you destroyed isn't actually just a mere statue. It was actually THE goddess, merely turned into stone by her overly-emotional need to express her deep melancholy. I never really liked that woman anyway…"
"So-…"
"Nu-uh! Not yet done! Ok, so… In conclusion, the only way for you to correct your mistake is to…"
Jill looked up her head, and awaited the punishment for her clumsy blunder, filled with regret.
"Go on…" She said, with both of her eyes closed, gripping the vest that enclosed her of the lingering chill she had in her spine just now.
"…Is to be the goddess"
