Wow, I am extremely pleased with myself. I got this chapter done rather quickly! Aren't you happy with me? THANK YOU SOOO MUCH 6KIMIKO6! :D
"N-No, this can't be happening!" Gill hollered, almost seeming to say it through a growl.
"H-Hamilton?" Hikari was now completely dumbfounded at the thought of the Mayor acting in this manner.
"What might you like to know, my new Daughter-In-Law?"
Gill began to harshly bite his lower lip, seeming to not even cease to stop for an instant.
"WHY ARE YOU HERE?" Gill boomed, his voice firm and low.
"He he," the Mayor's mouth widened into a sly demonic grin, "oh Gilly, what are YOU doing here?"
Even the blue-eyed blonde boy himself did not know how to reply to the question, "you first," he settled his voice down a tad, but just a tad.
The grey-haired elder chuckled in a jubilant tone.
"I came to Magnolia Ranch to find the gorgeous Hikari, but It seemed that she was not available at the time. So, I went by the Garmon Mine District to see if any of the residents in that area had happened to catch a glimpse of the rare beauty," the Mayor gestured his plump arm to the individual Hikari.
"It-It just so happens that Luke informed me that he saw my Gilly-Roo and my Hikari-Poo walking hand and hand to the Harvest Tree," the Mayor shot a glance at the brunette, his eyes seemed to be watery and terribly large. He continued in a soft whisper, "I was overjoyed, no, ecstatic at the pure dream of you two tying the knot. Now, that dream is fulfilled."
Mayor Hamilton dug his hands deep into his onsombile's pockets. Eventually, they grey-haired man seemed to find what he was looking for in his back-left-pocket.
"There we go," he announced with his hand buried deep inside his pant's cloth. Out came a feather. That's not even the peculiar part, the item was the strangest color, a deep, soothing navy blue.
Gill's eyes seemed to almost pop out of their sockets. He seemed shocked, frightened, and just to put it into a few simple words, he looked like he just wet his pants.
"Wh-Why would you do that?" Gill questioned, sounding terribly hoarse.
"This will come in handy in the future," the Mayor muttered lightly underneath his breath as he handed the object to the blonde. Gill's eyes alarmingly widened, seeming horribly shocked by the fact of the elder had given him the inanimate object.
"But-," Gill started to talk, but Hamilton hushed him.
"Ah-Ah-Ah! No buts! I must be off!" The Mayor squeaked out and made his way out of the Garmon Mine District, singing and laughing and hysterically, announcing things to the public as he trotted along.
Hikari whirled her body towards the blue-eyed boy next to her.
"Your Dad is (insert bad word here) up."
"Gill, what just happened?"
...
"Nothing that is of your concern," the male's voice murmured out in a low tone.
"OH NO, MY CROPS!" Hikari abruptly clamped her arms into a hold around her head, "Gill," Hikari began to state. Swiftly, she glanced at her copper watch, "I've got to go..."
"B-But," he began, but the spunky brunette was already on the way back to her ranch.
Hikari's perspective...
"Huff, huff," Hikari let out in a wheeze.
My-My heart...
The brunette hesitantly glanced downward at her chest.
...won't stop beating so fast. The female's cheeks flushed a deep, beat red.
I-I made up a good excuse, though. Hikari briefly glanced at the barren road, then at her brown buckled knee-high boots.
"Ugh," she sighed as her Ranch appeared to her in a blur. The mud-brown-brunette's produce came to view.
Hikari could tell just by one glance that the plants were not going to make it. Wilted, brown things were perched upon her plot. Hikari approached the crops with a groggy expression upon her fragile face.
"Time to get to work," the stupefied female grunted through of her lips. Again, Hikari shot a brief glance at her watch. 7:30, the fancy numbers informed her.
...You know, I'm not going to start until tomorrow...Hikari yawned, her mouth largely opened as she let out a loud ah.
With that last phrase entering every inch of her thoughts, Hikari skipped playfully to her doorstep, brushed off her boots, and entered through her abode's beat up door.
Hikari's perspective...
The sun's eye-blinding rays beamed down directly on Hikari's luscious white skin through the thick glass window. The brunette slowly opened her lids, revealing her chocolate brown eye sockets.
In a hast, Hikari scrambled out from underneath the covers, put on her sandy beige slippers, and tussled with curtains next to her bed. Finally, she seemed to secure them, blocking out the ultraviolet rays of DOOM.
She gracefully rubbed her eyes in a hustle. The female raced herself to the washroom.
Halfway through, she tripped and plunged onto her comforter. Down to the floor the twenty-year-old went with a BLAM.
"Ow-Owwww!" Hikari let out through a moan as she rubbed her tush, which just so happened to break the female's fall.
"Come on," the brunette groaned as she limped to her restroom.
Gill's perspective... ( 6kimiko6 did most of this... I was lazy, okay! )
"Get your lazy butt up!"
Gill groaned, pulling his pillow over his head.
"Don't be lazy, Gill! Go talk to your girlfriend," Hamilton teased.
"Not my girlfriend," the little blonde boy muttered.
Hamilton opened the door and gasped, "son! You might mess up your hair!"
"See if I care," Gill grunted, not very politely. Mostly because he is a sourpuss, and stubborn, and...stuff.
"Get out of my house or-," Hamilton paused, with a mischievous glint in his eyes; you'll have to clean my bedroom."
Gill gasped and sat up abruptly,"you wouldn't," Gill shifted his clear blue eyes down the hall and gulped, "the bedroom."
Mayor Hamilton laughed ( quite an evil-like laugh, it was. )
"I would."
Gill scurried up to his dresser, pulling on his white button-up shirt, along with his usual diamond designed indigo vest. The boy glanced down at his boxers. The sinister Hamilton himself had only bought him these whimsical blue boxers with disturbing smiling, stitched on tomatoes with childish faces.
He shuddered at the pure sight of the vegetables.
In hast, he ran to his dresser, pulled out his plaid capris, put his legs through the cloth, buttoned them together and zipped them together.
The blonde ran out of the house, with Hamilton laughing menacingly.
Hikari's perspective... ( Again, by 6kimiko6! You should check her out! )
After overreacting about her poor, poor foot, Hikari decided to take a shower. She pulled her PJs off when she heard a small creak! The brunette froze in place. But after hearing no more further noise, she shrugged and continued to undress.
Then she heard the bathroom door open.
Hikari immediately pulled a towel over herself and screeched, "get out!" She actually said more vivid things, but we'll just skip that. The person seemed to turn bright red. Hikari actually only caught a small glimpse at the peeper through her large bathroom mirror on the wall.
The door opener closed the washroom's door with a loud slam.
"S-Sorry," a voice said through the door.
"Gill?" Hikari wondered aloud, "is that you? Why are you here?"
"Cuz...cuz I can be! I am the Mayor's son! I can do what I want!" The boy said stubbornly.
"Like walkin' in on showering girls?" Hikari asked.
Gill muttered not nice words. ( That I won't repeat. )
"...and I am bored!" He declared, "entertain me!"
Hikari rolled her eyes, "just let me change before I 'entertain' you," the female growled. She was being sarcastic, so she was almost flabbergasted when Gill replied, "tis fine; I will wait."
Now irked, Hikari took as long of a shower as she possibly could, washing and conditioning her hair a total of 3 times. But she soon got all raisony, and had to get out. So she fully dried herself, brushed and combed her hair, and decided to mess with her makeup.
She carefully lined her lips with a luscious lip balm, concealed her imperfections, brushed a matching powder on her face, put on a light peachy shade of blush, lightly she lined a brown liquid eyeliner on the far ends of her eyes. She blended that said eyeliner into her skin just a smidge. Just so that it would not be like, BAM eyeliner. Next up, after taking forever on the last task, Hikari next decided on eye-shadow. The female always enjoyed the color grey. So, she decided on a light shade of that said color.
Gill soon began to get impatient. "Hikari!" He shouted, "hurry up!"
"Okay!" She answered, not at all going to hurry.
At old grandma speed, Hikari reached her hand for her eye-shadow pallet. Various shades and tints of brown, grey, red, and even yellow were perched upon the hollow holes in the cosmetic holding item.
Hikari's brown eyes darted around in every direction, searching for her semi-big eye-shadow brush.
"WHERE DID I PUT IT?" She let out in agony from her frustration.
Gill was puzzled by the sudden outburst and he was rather slow; and would probably never understand.
Hikari wildly started throwing things, trying to find the cursed brush. The female found many things-headphones, a 5$ bill, a bouncy ball, a toothbrush, and even some hair clippies from when she was 8. But not the eye shadow brush.
"I will find you!" She warned the brush, "and when I do, you'll regret hiding! Mwahaha!"
After hearing the little rancher-girl's evil laugh Gill was scared. Not only did he have no idea what the girl was talking about, but she sounded like a lunatic. He got the nickname from a girl that attended the same school as him for about 10 years. The girl had a major crush on him, and often she showed it by many scenes of public affection, her name, Luna.
Ugh, I hated that little twat.
Meanwhile, Hikari was having a meltdown. She put her head in her hands, about to sob melo-dramatically when she felt something brush her forehead. Something that felt like a... The female pulled her hand away and saw the small eye-shadow brush in her hand.
"..."
The brunette was at a loss for words at her stupidity. So instead she laughed. Just a giggle at first, but she was soon roaring with laughter.
Gill then got irked. Mostly because he wanted to know what was so funny and also because that stupid girl had made him wait for an hour. A whole friggin' hour! Seriously! How long does it take for those idiotic women to get ready?
"What is your problem?" Gill growled, getting closer to the door. That just so happened to be the moment that Hikari opened the door.
Who's the stupid one now, Gilly? Probably the one on the floor being not so manly, if you guessed Gill, you were right!
"Are you okay?" Hikari asked, kneeling beside the wreathing blonde boy.
"Nooo," he cried, holding his forehead in dramatic agony.
"Oh well, I tried," she answered, giving up.
"No! Hey, wait!" He shouted to the retreating brunette. Hikari kept walking.
"I wasn't entertained!"
Hikari's perspective...
"That-That boy is so-so impatient!" Hikari muffled while chomping on her lip. She wasn't really talking to anyone; just herself. But the brunette actually agreed with herself. The female stomped her little feet out of the door-the same door that she had kicked the stupid blonder boy out of.
She was almost down the steps when she tripped which is really kind of sad, considering there are only, like, two steps. Hikari looked over in surprise when she saw a little kitten mindlessly pacing around the steps in a circle as she mewed her little kitten meow.
"Aww!" The twenty-year-old cooed at the little brown kitty cat.
The kitten mewed, licking her ruffled tummy fur.
"You're so cute!" Hikari exclaimed, picking the little cat up. The feline purred as Hikari scratched the it's ears.
"I'll call you..." Hikari paused, "...Hotomi!" The kitten blinked it's big chocolate-brown eyes at Hikari in astonishment.
She grinned, "all right! It's settled! Hotomi it is!"
{- The next day -}
"HOTOMI! WHERE DID YOU GO?" Hikari ran through her small house, screaming. The kitten that she had only had for ONE day was now gone! Poor Hikari! The female farmer ran out the door, ready to cry, when she saw Gill.
"Blondie! Get over here!" Hikari shouted over to Gilly, with her hands cupping over her mouth in the shape of a bullhorn.
"Ugh," he responded in a groan
"NO SASS, JUST COME!" Hikari dictated with her hands on her hips, showing that she meant business.
"And why should I, princess?" He fought back, his voice all, 'whiney like.'
Hikari scowled in frustration, "my precious kitty, Hotomi-," she stopped directly halfway in her last phrase, feeling extremely weary.
"...Hotomi IS MISSSING!" The brunette's gut began to tighten into a binding knot as she screeched out the last phrase.
"Who's Hokomi?" Gill questioned while doing his annual hair flip.
"Hotomi!" Hikari corrected while shaking her index finger at the Mayor's son, "she's my kitty-poo!" Hikari exclaimed, while remembering her sweet, cuddly kitten face.
"She seemed to have wandered off when I was watering my crops!" ( Which had seemed to make an efficient recovery from their original state. )
"Those brown things I saw on your plot? I thought they were weeds..." Gill chuckled jubilantly at his last statement.
Hikari stomped into the ground from anger, "THEY'RE NOT WEEDS!"
"They sure like them!" Gill smirked and continued harassing Hikari to her limit.
"Just help me!" The woman seemed aggravated. Hikari clenched her fists into tight balls of anger.
"You're coming with me!" The brunette grabbed the back of Gill's white shirt collar and was on her way, stomping along the gravel as she made her way to Harmonica Town.
Hikari quickly pulled open the door, not even very gentle like, pulling the party Gill along with her.
"My name is Hikari! I am looking for my kitty-cat!" She squealed out to the couple inside.
The woman spoke first, "oh! Hello! My name is Barbara; this is my husband-Simon."
Hikari forced a smile, " nice to meet you, have you seen my kitten?"
"Yes," Simon started, "I saw a cat not too long ago-it was headed to Marimba Farm I believe," Simon walked in hustle over to the middle of the store to stand by his wife.
"Thanks!" Hikari blurted out. The female scurried over to the door.
"Help me," Gill cried out, as the brunette rancher yanked him out of the General Store.
Hikari was about to ( attempt ) to find Marimba Farm for a second time when she ran into the doctor, Jin the Doctor.
"I'm so sorry!" Hikari apologized, her face red with a small blush.
His face fell blank with a bored expression, "it's fine," he replied.
The doctor glanced at the duo of Gill and Hikari, "G-Gill is that you?" His face developed a small sly grin.
The so called 'manly' Gill hid behind the young farmer, Hikari.
Jin chuckled in a deep tone, "oh, young love."
Hikari and Gill blushed to a deep crimson shade in unison.
"IT-IT'S NOT LIKE THAT!" The two again defended each other's rights at the same time through a yell.
"Are you two okay?" Jin questioned the two.
Hikari sighed and began to slouch, "no, I lost my kitty..."
Jin looked at her weird, then shrugged. Crazy people weren't his forte.
"Umm, I have been to Marimba Farm once, but I seemed to have left my map at my house," Hikari groaned, "which way is it?"
Jin pointed west from their position, and the little rancher and her hostage were on their way.
