PiPo: The first person I interviewed was our beloved walking teddy bear, Tony!

Tony: Why do you need to interview me?

PiPo: 'Cuz I just want to.

Tony: …Okay.

PiPo: How does it feel like to be a teddy bear? ^_^

Tony: Funny.

PiPo: …In what way?

Tony: Enjoyable.

PiPo: You suck. You keep giving me one-word answers. V_V

Tony: Haha.

PiPo: Okay, so everyone wants to know: who would you marry in the fanfic?

Tony: I have no clue.

PiPo: Would you like me to give you options?

Tony: Sure.

PiPo: Okay, so first we have Chelsea…

Tony: Who the hell is she?

PiPo: THERE'S CHELSEA, Chellsea, Kimmy, Julia, Natalie, and me.

Tony: I guess I'd choose Kimmy.

PiPo: YAHH! …Would you like to see the interview so far?

Tony: …Sure? –reads interview- Haha!

PiPo: LAST QUESTION! w

Tony: …Yay.

PiPo: Do you have any idea what this story is about?

Tony: No. Not at all.

PiPo: AND WE ARE FINISHED! Tony, will you care to do the disclaimer for me?

Tony: I don't know. I don't know what that is.

PiPo: Just say that I don't own anyone from Harvest Moon or anything related to Harvest Moon except for my copies of the game. Oh, and say that I own all of my OCs, even if they are my friends in real life.

Tony: …I don't know anything about Harvest Moon.

PiPo: …I think that's enough for a disclaimer, thanks.

Tony: Lawls.


"PLEASE DON'T LEAVE US." I begged Kimmy and Chelsea as they continued to pack the bags of the garbage we found around the island.

Kimmy patted my head. "Sorry, Kat. Felicia's sick, so Chelsea and I need to take our… produce to the city today."

Jesse snorted. "Produce? All we have is multi-coloured heart-shaped grass." He folded his arms. "And some material stone."

Chelsea whipped Boshi at Jesse and growled. "Shut up, you."

I sniffled. "I CAN'T HANDLE KIDS."

Tony walked to my side. "How hard can it be to take care of a 7-year-old for a day?"

I glanced down. "This is not any ordinary 7-year-old we're talking about here." I sighed. "It's Kaelan. I love him, but I don't really have enough patience…"

Kimmy sighed. "It's alright, Kat, it's only for one day."

Jesse stood up. "I'm going to Chen's shop." He sighed. "I'm gonna get a lighter and some marshmallows. Maybe a campfire at the end of the day will be somewhat helpful."

"See, Kat? You won't be alone. Jesse's here." Kimmy said cheerfully.

I whined, and then looked at the clock. "He should be here any minute now." I sighed. "You guys should go now if you don't wanna see him on your way."

Kimmy raised an eyebrow. "Why would we not want to see Kaelan?"

Chelsea nodded in agreement. I looked at Kimmy as if it was the most obvious answer in the world, and indeed it was. "He's not gonna let you leave."

Kimmy 'ah-ed', and then nodded. "Well, c'mon, Chelsea, let's go."

With that, I was left with no one else in the room other than a black fictional dinosaur plushie and a living teddy bear.

~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~

"Thanks so much for taking care of Kaelan for this weekend, Katrina!"

Erinn smiled at me. I had to smile back. "No problem, Grace. Anytime."

Erinn looked down at the little boy grinning up at me. "Be good, okay, buddy?"

Kaelan nodded… hyper-ly before kissing his mom on the cheek, and then bidded her farewell.

I sighed. "Hey, Kae."

Kaelan beamed at me. "Hi, Kat!" He looked around. "Where's Jess? And Kimmy?"

"At the store." I led him inside our crap house. "He'll be back soon."

Kaelan squealed happily as he saw Tony lying on my bed. He ran over, picked Tony up, and then ran back to me and shoved Tony in my face. I giggled a bit when I saw Tony mouth 'help me'.

"Is this yours, Kat?"

I nodded. "His name is Tony." I patted Tony's head. "Isn't he cute?"

Kaelan nodded, and then threw Tony up in the air, and then caught him by the leg. "Can I have him? Please, Kat?"

…Uh oh. "Sorry, Kae, Tony's my best friend." Kaelan pouted. Aw, crap. Stupid guilt. "But, you can keep him while you're still on the island, okay?"

I could almost feel Tony biting my head off in pure rage. I shivered as Kaelan jumped for joy and then gave me a hug. "Thank you, Kat!"

I sighed in relief. "You're in a good mood today, aren't you?" He nodded. I smiled at him. This was gonna be easier than I thought.

~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~

"Do you guys have any strawberry Pocky?" Kaelan looked at us with big eyes.

Jesse sighed. "I ate all of it."

"Oh," Kaelan smiled at us. "It's okay, then."

And he started torturing Tony again.

Jesse poked my side. "At around 7, I'll start the fire, alright?"

I sighed. "Alright."

Kaelan stood up. "What're you guys talking about?"

Jesse grinned. "Oh, nothing. It's a secret between me and Kat. You know, like a super secret meeting."

Kaelan cocked his head to the right. "Oh, well, can we have a super secret meeting?"

Jesse and I looked at eachother, instantly read each other's mind, and then grinned. Jesse smiled at Kaelan. "Sure. Kat, we'll just be a few minutes."

I smiled. "Alright."

~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~

"It's not true, is it?"

I looked down at the trembling Kaelan. "What isn't true?"

He looked up at me. "That there's a ghost that haunts this island."

I patted Kaelan's head. "Well, it is, but the ghost only comes out if you're a bad boy." I smiled at him. "But you're not a bad boy, right?"

Kaelan grinned. "That's right! I'm not bad!" He crossed his arms and huffed. "Jesse's bad for telling me this story."

I laughed.

~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~

"Haha! I'm gonna eat all of your strawberry Pocky!"

"…I told you a few hours ago that I ate it all."

"…WHAT?!"

I cringed as I heard Kaelan scream outside. I sighed, and then slowly walked out of the door. "What's going on?"

I raised an eyebrow at the scene displayed before me. Jesse's face was buried in his hands and his shoulders were shaking. I sighed, and then shook my head. He was probably laughing. I looked over at Kaelan, who was screaming as if he was being torn from limb to limb. His hands were covering his ears and he was squatted down in the fetal position.

I sighed as I repeated the question. "What's going on?"

Kaelan looked at me with his beet red face, false tears running down his cheeks. He pointed accusingly at Jesse. "HE ATE ALL MY STRAWBERRY POCKY!"

I raised my hands up as if defending myself. "Wait a sec. Your Pocky?"

Kaelan nodded. "YES. IT WAS MY POCKY."

Jesse lifted his head. "How the heck was it your Pocky if Kimmy came up to me and said: 'Here you go, Jess!'?"

"IT WAS MY POCKY!" Kaelan screeched into Tony's ear. I did really well to hold in my laughter. Jesse… not so much.

"IT'S NOT FUNNY!" Kaelan screamed.

Au contraire. I thought to myself. "Kaelan, we still have some chocolate Pocky. Why don't you eat that instead?"

Kaelan glared at me. "I WANT STRAWBERRY POCKY."

Jesse 'tsk-ed'. "Kaelan, remember the ghost I told you about."

Kaelan screeched. "I. DON'T. CARE."

I groaned. You see, this is exactly why I can't really handle Kaelan. This… outburst of total misunderstanding.

I sighed as Nicholas and Jo came running towards us. I waved at them.

Nicholas patted Kaelan's head. "What the heck's going on here?"

I crossed my arms. "Just a bit of unreasonable-ness and deafening screeched in one big delicious fruity mix."

Jo sighed as she tried to comfort Kaelan. "There, there. What's wrong?"

Kaelan sniffled. "JESSE ATE ALL OF MY STRAWBERRY POCKY!" He pointed in the direction Jesse was standing before, but everyone else failed to notice that Jesse snuck away somewhere.

Haha. Fail.

Kaelan whipped his head around furiously. "JESSE! WHERE ARE YOU?!"

Ohp. That's my cue. "Remember the ghost Jesse told you about?" Kaelan nodded while Nicholas and Jo just stared at me, confused. "Well, Jesse was being a bad boy for eating 'all of your strawberry Pocky'." I breathed in and sniffled a bit. "He… Jesse was… He was eaten by the ghost."

Nicholas instantly caught on, chuckled a bit, and then started to drag Jo back to the shop. "I sure wish I don't get eaten by the ghost, do you, Jo?"

Jo's eyes widened. "There's a ghost?!"

~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~

Kaelan was holding Tony by the head. "There's no ghost here."

I nodded. "I beg to differ."

"Huh?"

I smiled and patted his head. "There is a ghost, Kae."

Kaelan huffed, and then held Tony tightly to his chest. "Uh huh." He rolled his eyes. "Sure."

I scrunched my face up as if in thought. "That reminds me. I need to feed Cuu."

His face lit up. "Your chicken?"

I nodded. "Yup."

He tugged on my sleeve. "Can I come?"

"Sure, why not?"

~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~

Kaelan skipped beside me humming a bit. I smiled. "Are you still mad at Jesse for eating the Pocky?"

I swear he like, inflated to twice his size when he puffed his cheeks. "YEAH! I HATE HIM!"

I raised my voice a bit. "Oh, well, that's too bad."

"Indeed it is."

Kaelan jumped. "Wh-who was that?!"

"I am the… ghost of Christmas Eve. Kaelan Robles… eh ha ha, I'm coming for you!"

Oh, gosh. Look at that little kid go. Screaming and running with his hands in the air like that… Oh, priceless. "We warned you to be good today." I laughed.

Jesse jumped out of his hiding spot in the bush grinning from ear to ear. I high five-ed him. "…'Ghost of Christmas Eve'? Couldn't you think of a better name?"

Jesse shook his head. "Nope." He laughed. "Oh, we're horrible people."

I nodded. "I know."

Just then, we heard Kaelan screech: "I FORGOT ABOUT KAT!"

We laughed so hard that Jesse actually fell into the little river. Kaelan ran back towards me. He watched me rolling on the ground coughing due to lack of air… and from laughing.

"KAT! WHAT HAPPENED?!"

I sat up. "Um… The ghost of Christmas Eve came, and then… um, choked me."

Jesse stood up from the water. "And then I kicked his stomach from the inside and then he exploded."

I nodded, managing to keep on a poker face. "Yes. That's exactly what happened. Thanks, Jess."

"No problem."


PiPo: Oh, gosh, we actually did something like that to Kaelan one time. XD

It's just that Kimmy was there and Nicholas and Jo weren't. It also included a cell phone and a recording of Jesse's voice. Oh, good times. X]

Please note that my interview with Tony was real, and I did not make any of that crap up there up. xD
