Disclaimer:
I don't own Harvest Moon or it's characters, Natsume does. But Drake & Radford Arcwing are dudes created by me, If they somehow are similar to any real person (alive or dead) is coincidental. Oh yeah, that goes the same for Vincent McLaren & Nate.


Rating: PG-13

[A Harvest Moon Vacation]


CHAPTER 8, SUMMER : THE DOCTOR IS IN


------7:00 AM, SUMMER 8th, YEAR 3------


*Meanwhile... back to Karen, she walks back to her cabin.*


KAREN : I hope Jack is alright... He seems troubled recently...


*Ann walks up to Karen*


ANN : Hi Karen!


KAREN : *turns around* Oh! Hi Ann!


ANN : You seem bothered...


KAREN : I'm okay...By the way... We found your dad!


ANN : Really?! Where is he?


KAREN : He's over at the Doctor's cabin...


ANN : Thank you!!


*Ann hugs Karen*


KAREN : It's alright... Good thing he knocked on our cabin door.


ANN : He did? Wow!


KAREN : Jack's in the clinic too...


ANN : *gasp* Why?


KAREN : He went psycho or something...


ANN : Err... I'm sorry.


KAREN : It's alright, you should go see your dad now...


ANN : Oh, Okay. *walks towards cabin* See You!


KAREN : Bye!


*Elli heads to the Doctor's cabin*


KAREN : (talking to herself) *sigh* I'm really disturbed by what happened to Jack. Maybe I should go back and look after Jack.


*Karen walks back to the clinic*


*When Karen gets there... She hears a scream.*


ANN's VOICE : Ahhhh!! Noooo!!!!


KAREN : Oh no! Ann!


*Karen barges into the cabin.*


KAREN : Leave Ann alone!


DOCTOR : *Holding a knife* Huh?


KAREN : What the hell do you think you're doing?


DOCTOR : I was about to give Doug a slice of Honey-cured ham.


KAREN : Sure... Where's Ann?


DOCTOR : The bathroom...


KAREN : Yeah right...


*Flush sound*


*Ann steps out from the bathroom*


ANN : *sees Karen* Karen! You should have seen it! There was a rat that was so huge!


KAREN : Rat?


ANN : I got shocked so I screamed.


KAREN : Since when were you afraid of rats?


ANN : *blush* Well...


KAREN : Where's Jack?


DOCTOR : There... *pointing at the table with a cloth covering a body*


KAREN : He's dead?!


DOCTOR : No...


KAREN : Then why is he under sheets?


DOCTOR : He doesn't match with the interiors of the cabin...


KAREN : *sigh* I rushed over here for nothing.


DOCTOR : I wouldn't say that...


KAREN : What?


*knife gleams*


DOCTOR : Hehehe...


KAREN : *screams*


*Over to Nate*


NATE : *sitting on a chair* I can't wait till we get over to Moon Island...


DRAKE : *also sitting* Yeah... I can't stand the sea...


NATE : Heh... You never did. But why'd you come along?


DRAKE : Well, I wanted a vacation. And I don't wanna spend much money just to get there and have a place to stay... So I hitched a free ride.


NATE : Good for you that the McLaren Corp. is sponsoring this event.


DRAKE : Yeah...


*Vincent walks in*


VINCENT : Be glad that I granted Nate's request to bring a WHOLE TOWN to Moon Island!


DRAKE : Isn't it your island anyway?


VINCENT : So?


DRAKE : Cheap ass...


VINCENT : You wanna get thrown overboard?


DRAKE : *gets up from chair* Try me!


VINCENT : You really think you can handle me?


DRAKE : *remembers something* Nevermind...


VINCENT : I knew it... Fighting me is like fighting your own shadow... hehehe.


DRAKE : Grr... *Sits on chair again*


VINCENT : Don't feel bad... You did the smart thing.


NATE : This is entertainment...


DRAKE : I'm going to my cabin...


NATE : I gotta go too... I'll take a walk.


VINCENT : Gotta get back to the bridge.


DRAKE : If you're here... Who's steering the ship?


VINCENT : Um... Er... Oh dang!


*dashes out of the room*


DRAKE : Sometimes I wonder...


*silence*


DRAKE : Nate? Nate? *looks around* Damn!


*Back again to Nate*


NATE : (Talking to himself) I wonder what I should do now?


*Mary walks by*


NATE : *turns around* Mary!


MARY : *walks away*


NATE : *sigh* Oh hell...


MARY : *suddenly stops*


NATE : (Talking to himself) Oh hell, what do I do now?


MARY : *turns around* Why?


NATE : I'm sorry... I couldn't save him.


MARY : Don't think I've forgiven you...


*Mary walks away*


NATE : *sigh* I'm not sure whether that was progress or if that was bad... Oh well.


*Nate walks over to the shops*


NATE : Excuse me... How much for flowers?
