"What was that?"
"Haha... You know a magician never reveals their secrets..."
"Right. I shouldn't have asked."
"...?! Why?"
"Oh... Um..."
"Forget it. You've already caused me enough trouble..."
"Wha-?!"
"CHICK-BEAM... FIRE!!!"
"He's dead, Celia. Isn't it obvious?"
"Real funny, Rock!"
"Jeez... It's like you can't take a joke..."
"Hello... Hello... Can you get up?"
Marisa back-flipped and landed softly on the ground.
"Oh, wow! What a neat trick!"
"Where'd he go...? Phantom Skye..?"
"No one knows... He just sorta.... You know, goes where ever..."
"Hm... Anyway... Who are you?"
"I'm Celia. This is Rock. And you are?"
"Maris."
"Oh, no! Not again!" A blond women came running out the door of a nearby house. "Not Phantom Skye again! This is the third time this week!"
"Oh, no! Muffy! Can't you keep that thief under control?!"
Marisa waked off. She didn't like these people, not one bit. They were too stressed, too uptight. Rock chased after him.
"Girls are just too annoying, aren't they? I know- how about I show you around to the rest of the guys? That's sure to calm you down!"
"That's... That sounds... cool."
"I knew you'd say that! C'mon!"
Rock grabbed her by the arm, dragging her into the house Muffy came out of.
"Hey, Griffin! Check it out! We've got another guy in the valley!"
"You going to order anything?"
"No..."
"Then get out."
"M'kay. Well, Maris, that's Griffin for ya'."
The two went around the valley, meeting all the guys there. The only one Marisa took interest in was Dr. Trent, but she thought the opposite once finding out he was married.
"Is everyone here this boring?"
"Pretty much. But it grows on you."
Marisa walked off without saying anything else. She attempted to walk to the spring, where the Harvest Goddess lived. She almost got there, but was interrupted by Celia.
"Wait! Maris! I-"
Celia tripped.
