I walked over to Town Square to greet a boy named Gill. He wasn't bad looking except that I thought he needed to lose some weight in the thigh area… I told him about the wonderful expectations I had for living here. "HA! You must've read the stupid brochure my father made! It's about as fake as my dad's wig! This place is like a ghost town!"

I had just met this boy and he was already calling me gullible! The nerve! He only gave me three sentences and I could already tell he was full of himself! "I think this town could have a lot of potential though. With some progress…" he said staring at the floor. That last sentence was the only thing stopping me from slapping him. He was right after all! 'Hey maybe after I start my ranch I can work to make this island a little more lively' I thought.

I left to greet a few other people. As I headed for the clinic I bumped into someone! "Oof! Sorry Ma'am!" I blurted out. "Ma'am?" said the person. It was a man's voice. "Oh Crud! I'm so sorry! Uhhh… you must be the doctor!" I mumbled. He glared at me. "Well, you look healthy, but I'm beginning to wonder if your mind is… ship shape…" he said suspiciously. "heh heh…" I muttered through my teeth.

"KYRA!" called the mayor. I ran towards him. "Come now we must not dilly dally! I'll show you where you'll be staying until your house gets built," he said excitedly. We walked down town and through this place called Maple Lake.

"This is the church!" he said pointing at a blueish building with a bell. It was a cute little building. "May I take a peak inside?" I asked him in a curious tone. "Why of course" he replied. I push the doors open and couldn't believe what I saw. "AHG!" I yelled as soon as I saw the giant picture of the Harvest Goddess shown for everyone to pray to. "Th-th-that's her! That's the witchy women from my dream! She's evil!" I said with my teeth chattering.

"The Harvest Goddess! Why would you ever even think such a thing of her? She's who we pray to! The reason we are all alive! The reason the island is here!" he lectured. "Then why is the island in such a bad state right now?" I said raising an eyebrow. "We don't know for sure…" he answered, "some say we took her and her special tree for granted." "I'm not so sure," I whispered. "Look if the islands citizens know about your suspicions they'll think your crazy. Let's just keep this little event between us okay?" he asked. I said I agreed with him. But as we walked out of the church I quickly glanced behind me and saw the painting wink at me evily, but I kept my mouth shut.

"Well here we are! Souffle Farm! You will work here until we get your house built!" he said. He walked back away from me as a grumpy looking man walked up to me. "Who the heck are you! Get out of here! Scat!" He said shooing me away. I ran back to Mayor Hamilton about to completely high tail it out of there but he stopped me and took me back up to mean ol' mister grumpy. "You again? Shoo!" he said in a fowl tone. "LOOK HERE! I DON'T KNOW WHO THE HECK DROPPED A TURD IN YOUR PUNCHBOWL, BUT I'M YOUR NEW WORKER AND I DESERVE SOME RESPECT!" I yelled in his face.

He was silent. His face was red and he looked as if he were about to rip my head off, but he settled down and I could here him count to 10 to himself. "I'll see you tomorrow morning at 6 a.m. and you better be ready to work! I'm gonna make you soo sore your grandchildren are gonna feel it." I smiled and his innocent looking wife showed me to my room. I smirked laying on the soft cot. My eyes got heavy and I finally fell asleep…

Thanks for the kind reviews! Like I said before this is my first fanfic. If you have any advice I'd be happy to hear it!
