The Funeral

Authors Note: this chapter should be better and longer than the last so…. enjoy!

(Rose's POV)

We watched as they lowered the caskets down in the newly turned earth. Ray's arm was around my shoulders, though as sure it was to comfort me, I think he was trying to hold me so I wouldn't run away again. The funeral was hard and full of tears for me, I honestly didn't want to go, I just wanted to hide and run away…. I had no luck. It's been 2 weeks since they have died and those were the hardest weeks of my life. All I could do was cry, pretty pathetic really, but what else could I do?

I couldn't watch any more so I slowly turned around and walked away. I walked to the beach, I stood there and watched the waves, it was so calming. I few minuets later Ray and Ed joined me. "we thought you'd come here." Ray said it sounded so reverent when everything else was so quite except for the rolling waves. I didn't answer I just stood there, watching… "we should really go…. theirs a storm rolling in…" Edward was trying to get us to leave, but I wouldn't budge, I continued to watch. "Rose come on!" now Ray was trying to get me to go but I continue to ignore them. My eyes narrowed… there something in the ocean…it looked like a child! Was that child drowning!?

"R-Rose what are you…?" (Edward) I started walking into the water staring at the figure in the water. "ROSE! COME BACK!" Ray was screaming at me…why? He probably thought I was going to commit suicide or something. I took off my black heels and started in the water. I was wearing a long black dress for the funeral, it's going to be hard to swim in this but…. I can't let that child drown! I jumped into the water and started swimming towards the child in the water. I could hear my brothers yelling at me to come back but I didn't listen. I can't just let that child drown!

I got pretty far I was by a buoy, the kid was still there holding on to another buoy farther down, I was going to go to him when someone grabbed me. I turned," Rose what are you doing?" it was Ray he swam after me, I looked over his should and saw Ed right behind him. "Don't you see that little boy over there?" I asked, Ray looked and shook his head, "Rose, I don't see anything, are you ok?" I stared at him, why couldn't he see the little boy? "yeah, Rose The storm is almost at us." Edward chipped in. "I can't just leave that little boy to die!" and I took off I swam and swam, I could hear Ray and Ed swimming after me, but I didn't care. I was almost there…that little boy, needs me!

I reached the buoy and found the little boy just about to slip off into the water, I quickly grabbed him before he fell into the water…he passed out. I looked back and saw Ray and Ed swimming towards us, they could help get him to shore. The storm was pretty bad now it was raining pretty hard and the waves were crashing hard against us. Finally, the boys caught up to me and stared in disbelief at the little boy in my arms, he looked about 3…how did a 3-year-old get in the water this far?

They were about to say something when lighting it the sky, we looked up in fear. "We need to get back now!" Edward was yelling at us now, "We can't just leave him!" I yelled back over the storm. "then we'll take him with us!" Ray said we were just about to swim back when lightning hit again, we stared back and saw a huge wave climbing higher and higher! It looked like a huge wall, lightning struck again this time hitting the water. The wall was getting closer; we wouldn't make it! Then everything went black…

(Vaughn's POV)

I couldn't sleep, my mind just wouldn't allow it so I decided to walk along the beach, thinking about life, thinking about…. what's that? There were 3 figures on the ground, I walked over to the 3 people, looked as if they washed up from the ocean? I walked over to them they were all unconscious. The closest one was a girl, she had light purple hair and very rosy cheeks, he had to admit she was very pretty. She looked to be holding a little boy, who had dark blue hair, he looked to be three. He looked at the other one, he had the same light purple hair as well. I sat and stared at them for a minute, what do I do? When the older boy started coughing and he sat up…

"Rose…" he said looking around when he noticed me standing there watching them like and idiot. "w-who are you?" the guy asked me, I'm not good with people, why did it have to me who found them! "Vaughn" I said, and walked over to him "I'm Ray…ROSE!" Ray noticed his sister lying unconscious a few feet away, he tried to get up to her but fell, he was too weak. He looked up at me, "please help us!" he said desperation in his voice. "here, stay there and get your health up a bit I'll get the girl…" I said and walked over to were she was, I decided to pick up the little boy first and set him down by Ray, then I went back for her. I picked her up bridal stile and carried her back to Ray as well. "can you stand?" I asked, still holding the girl. Ray slowly stood up, "yeah I think I'll be fine." He said, "alright then you carry the boy and follow me." I said to him, he looked as if he would rather carry the girl but I gave him the look and he picked the boy. I started walking, walking to the animal shop.

(Edward's POV)

I woke up, my throat was very soar and I hurt all over my body. Except I was in a nice warm bed, with blankets and there was a lovely girl with long black hair and glassed in front of me. I blinked to make sure this was real, "w-wear am I?" I asked my voice was very dry, but I needed to know, so I can subside the embarrassment. "oh! I'm s-s-o glad your awake!" the girl said shyly and blushed. " I found you on the beach and w-well brought you to my house to m-make sure you were a-alright." She was blushing quit a bit now and I was as well. "well, my thanks are granted!" she giggled "do you need anything?" she asked a look of motherly concern crossed her face, "uh, yeah, I actually would like some water please," I told her, now realizing how thirsty I truly was. "of course! just a minute, she left the room and I laid back down on the soft bed. Were ever I am, I'm glad I'm with this wonderful, beautiful young lady!

(Rose's POV)

I woke up with a start, I was on a couch, why was I on a couch? Were am I? were the little boy! I stared around looking no one was in the room, it was a strange room, there was a counter with a cashier on it, and other places had hay and animal food, it looked very country like. I slowly got up, it was hard, my body was really sore, but I managed. I noticed I wasn't wearing the black dress anymore I had a T-shirt and sweat pants on. Then I noticed something, a strand of my hair…it was purple! Wasn't my hair color, Brown before! This is strange… I decided I would try to find whoever lives here and ask them were I am. I walked over to an opening in the wall and saw, my brother! (and some other people, but my Brother!) "Ray?" I don't know why it came out as a question, maybe it was because his hair was light purple too. "Rose! Your Awake!" he walked/ran over to me "I was just telling Vaughn and Maribel what happened to us!" I gave him a questioning look, "oh" he said "That's Maribel" he pointed to a short, over weight woman with a very friendly face, "Hello dear!" she said I gave a small smile, "and that over there" he gestured at a young man, who looked a bit older than me, he looked like a cowboy and had silver hair…he looked familiar, "he's Vaughn, he's the guy who saved us!" I stared closer at him, I remembered waking up for an instant, and found myself in a cowboy's arms, that must be him! "were are we?" I asked tearing my eyes away from Vaughn's lovely violet yes, I could still fell his eyes staring at me. "um...well I'm not sure..." Ray replied looking down, "what do you mean you're not sure!" how can he not know were we are, he was just talking to the people who saved us! "well, they say were in a place called Sunshine Islands." What! I've never heard if Sunshine Islands, how did we get here! But Ray wasn't done "well it's not on earth…." Wait, double what! How can it not be on earth! We just got stuck in an ocean storm thing! "w-what do you mean not on earth…"

"They say it's a world called Harvest Moon…"

"H-Harvest Moon?"

"Yup…"

"How can this be true… how can we be in another world!?"

Authors Note: Is this better, I think it's longer than the last, I think… anyway I'm switching between peoples POV's because, well, because I can! Any way I hope you like the story so far, if you have any suggestions I would love to hear them! And I would like to know who I should pare up the main characters with (meaning Rose, Ray, and Edward). Any way Thank you!
