Hey. I'm Ariole195. Welcome to this story. It's mostly a slice-of-life story, but elements of sci-fi and mystery will be included. Currently, I'm rating it K+ for the fact that it will never be totally innocent but that it will be mostly tame, but this may change later on. Without further ado, let's begin. Animal Crossing is owned by Nintendo. I only own the main character and plot.


I stare out of the window, watching the trees go by. How long has it been since I got on? An hour? A day? I lost myself in the scenery outside, glad to get away from the past. It has been difficult but at least I remained mostly unscathed. I hold the letter in my hands. It had been delivered only yesterday. It had read that someone called Isabelle wanted to meet me. How did she get my address? I spent most of the previous day trying to work out what she wanted and how she was able to contact me.

"Hello? Is anyone sitting here?"

I avert my gaze from the window, now focusing on the cat standing in front of me. I didn't know what I was expecting when I looked up but it seems that I wasn't expecting this. He could tell in my expression that something was wrong.

"Oh, is someone sitting here?" he enquired me, pressing for answers. I guess he thought my surprise was that someone was already sitting here and that he was mistaken.

"No, nobody's sitting here," I eventually replied.

"OK. Well, can I sit here?" the cat asked me. This time, I simply nodded. He soon had claimed the seat as his own. "So, my name's Rover. What about you?"

"Violet." It was a difficult question. I wasn't exactly given a name... I guess I just randomly plucked that name out of thin air.

"Well, nice to meet you, Violet. May I ask where you're headed?" Rover looked at me, continuing to ask away.

"Well, the train ticket says I'm headed to Ersent Village." I look at the train ticket. It came attached to the letter, the same one this Isabelle sent me.

"What a lovely place that is. The cherries are to die for, trust me."

"I will."

An announcement sounded through the speakers on the train. "Now arriving at Ersent Station."

My stop. My new life. A new leaf. As I step off the train, Rover waves me goodbye. I wave back at him and take my first step forward. Forward to a new life in Ersent Village.


So, yeah, that was an introduction to this new story. Uploads may be few and far between but I hope you guys will still read it.
