A.N: Super sorry about not uploading this yesterday. My internet was out until about 6 this morning due to issues with my router. Everything has been fixed now so here is the next chapter as promised!

Chapter 3: Getting Started

"So let me get this straight. The goddess just told that I am the only one that can save her and the world from dying by finding 4 bells that nobody know's where they have gone for over a year?!" I exclaim staring at Finn who is pacing through the air in front of me.
"I can't believe the goddess is dying. We have to hurry and finish this mission Angela!" I feel the color leave my face.
"Oh so you think I'm able to do this too then?! ME?! Angela, the clumsy girl who hasn't even been able to do anything to help myself let alone the harvest goddess!" Finn's eyes lower to the ground. I sigh, "listen Finn, I don't know if I'm cut out for this" I chuckle darkly, "I mean look at me..."
"I trust you Angela and apparently so does the goddess."
"Ha! Well you guys need to rethink who you trust. I...I'm just me, Finn. I'm not some hero who knows what to do and how to do it." I feel a lump form in my throat.
Finn sighs and pinches the bridge of his nose, "Angela, I didn't want to ever tell you this because I didn't know how you would react...but you need to know that the goddess has had me watch over you since you were just a baby. Since the second you were born she knew you were special and would do great things Angela..." the tears in my eyes are threatening to spill over as I look at my harvest sprite friend in front of me. "I have always been by your side. I have seen you do so many things like stopping your friends from being bullied and saving that elderly woman in Forget-Me-Not Valley. You are the only person who can do this, because you are the only person who has done so much good that the goddess feels she can entrust her life to you!"
I sob, "I will mess up and break stuff."
"Nothing beyond repair."
"I'm not very smart."
"Neither am I."
"I'm really scared."
"Aren't we all?" Finn smiles grimly as he makes his way over to me. I feel my chest tighten and my hands ball into fists at my side as I look Finn in the eyes.
"I...will try."
"We knew you would." Finn pats me on the head with his tiny hand.

The Next Day

I sigh as I force myself to get out of bed. I need to get work done so I can help the goddess. I change into a navy blue tee, cut off shorts, and I tie a bandana on my head to keep the sweat out of my eyes.
"Alright! I can do this!" I grin and I head outside.
"What are we doing first Angela?" Finn asks and I chuckle.
"Oh Finn, of course I'm going to clear the field first. I mean It couldn't possibly be that ba-" my eyes widen as I come over to what is supposed to be my field for planting crops.
"Wow...what a dump."
"Maybe this will take longer than I thought it would." I sigh as I examine the rock and weed infested field. "Well better now then never!" I exclaim as I start my assault on the hundreds of weeds.

2 Hours Later

I wipe the sweat from my brow as I toss away the final rock from the field. It took a couple hours but now I can finally plant these crops I brought from home! I sigh pulling the seeds from my rucksack. Watermelon and corn perfect. I smile as I begin planting the seeds with care.
After a few minutes all 16 of my seeds have been planted and watered so now I can finally go talk to some of the people I met yesterday. I make my way to Waffle Town and notice a beach on the way there. I grin, a little detour won't hurt. After all I could really use some fresh ocean water to cool me down. I kick my shoes off and jump into the water.
Cold is an understatement for what the water felt like. The water was frigid and I shivered as soon as it hit my overheated body. Finn hovers around me curious, then dips down and touches his foot to the water only to pull it back quickly.
"Um...Angela are you sure you should be swimming its pretty cold...what if you get sick?"
"Ha! What are you talking about Finn? Me get sick? That's never going to happen, don't worry so much silly." I state confidently as I get out of the water and head back to my shoes.
I slip my shoes back on, wincing as I feel the sand rubbing against my feet. Oh well, as least it will work away any calluses I get from all the walking! I think as I make my way into the town. Everyone is looking at me and I feel a little self-conscious as I make my way into the Inn.
"Angela! I'm SO glad you're here!" Maya squeals rushing over to me! She examines me, a look of amusement on her face. "Do you realize you have seaweed on your head?" She giggles and I feel heat rise to my cheeks. She pulls it off and places it in my hands. "Yolanda has told me seaweed can be use to make some delicious broth for fish soup. So you should keep it to make something." She smiles as I place it in my rucksack. "You look exhausted and soaked. What have you been doing today anyway?"
I sigh as I sit in a chair my feet practically sing as I let them rest for the first time today. "I cleared out my field and planted my first crops!" I grinned triumphantly as Maya looks at me in awe.
"Its only 2 and you already got all that done?! I don't even wake up until 9, let alone get so much work done so fast!" I feel my confidence rise as what she said sinks in. Yeah. I guess I did do pretty good. Maybe I can do this whole saving the goddess thing! "So what did you end up planting anyway?"
"Oh you know, some watermelon and corn."
"Watermelon...and corn...?" Maya's voice lowers and I raise my brow at her sudden loss of excitement.
"Yeah? What? Don't like them or something?"
Maya shakes her head and a look of sympathy washes over her face, "Angela...Those can only be planted in the summer."
"Oh just because they are summer food doesn't mean that they can't be planted now."
"Actually it does. They will wilt and die by tomorrow Angela. They literally can't grow until summer." I feel all the color drain from my face. "You'd didn't know that? I assumed you knew what you were doing thing..." Maya's voice drowns out as I think back to what my sister Chelsea told me about the seeds. "Don't forget to wait until summer to plant them or else they will die."
I rest my head on my arms and groan in defeat, "I'm such an idiot." Maya pats me on my shoulder as I wallow in my own self-pity.
"A lot of new comers make mistakes, Angela. Don't worry about it. Just go get some spring seeds from the far east of here and plant them first thing tomorrow morning." I nod as I push myself up out of the seat. "Have a good rest of the day, Angela! See you tomorrow!"

The Following Day

"Ang..."
"Angela..."
"ANGELA!" I'm jolted away as Finn dive-bombs me nailing me right in the gut.
"Ow geez Finn what the check are you doing?" I whine rubbing my stomach.
"Its already noon and we haven't gotten anything done yet!"
"Noon? What do you mean noo-ACHO-" My head throbs as the sneeze jolts my whole body. I hold my head and groan in pain laying back down.
Finn feels my forehead and frowns, "I told you that you would get sick!"
"Oh shut up and let me rest" I grumble rolling over in bed.
I guess replanting the crops will have to wait until tomorrow.

Hope you guy's enjoyed this chapter! I know it's not nearly as long as the previous one, I was pretty busy this week and didn't have much spare time to write. See you Next week for the next chapter!
