Chapter 1: Vision

Part 1: Jack

Jack jr. lived the easy life. He lived in Forget-Me-Not Valley at the Inner inn. He never had to pay, though. That is what his father, Jack did. Jack Sr. was never around, because he lived in Petalburg city, where his farming tycoon HQ was. Jack didn't really know who his father was, or what he did. To tell you the truth, he actually met his father in person about 13 times. He didn't even know who his mother was, because she left before he was old enough to remember anything. His father had many wives, so he probably wouldn't know. Whenever he asked, his father would say "Son, never hold anything or anyone close to you, for it will come crashing down in the end". But the one thing he was always told about his mother was from his uncle Duke. In all his letters, he says "Your mother loved you very much, and one day I truly hope you can find her again." Jack has never met his mother, but he often dreams that one day he will. These somewhat cruel changes in Jack's life have made him cold. But all the same, Jack lived the easy life, and he wouldn't have it any other way.

One day, Jack was in the kitchen, thinking to himself. My father, he was a farmer, right. He always talked about when he came to this Valley. How he was lost until Takakura took him in. I wish Tak could've done that for me. He would've too, if he would still be here to. He didn't have to die, did he? Why do some people give up on life so fast? Then, why am I here? What am I doing? I guess I don't know yet. I don't know the proof of my existence. Still, if he would still be here, maybe things would be different. I would be different…He was interrupted by Ruby.

"Jack, I need to tell you something. The rent is coming up and…"

"Oh, don't worry, Ruby. My dad is sending more money tomorrow." "Well, that's just it. You see…Your father…Is dead."

"Oh, I know he can be a little…Wait, did you say dead?"

"Yes, I am so sorry." "Well, I was in his will, though, right?"

"Well, yes…Just read this"

And to my son, I leave 500g. Now son, I want you to become a farmer like I was. You need to do something with yourself. It may seem harsh now, but you will thank me later. Dad. Jack started feeling dizzy and he hit the floor.

Come to Flowerbud village

Exciting Ranch Plan

Change your life forever

Make a Difference

Jack woke up to Dr. Hardy staring at him. So it was a dream, He thought. But, what was up with that dream? He suddenly jumped out of bed. He started running.

"Wait you are not well. Where are you even going?" Dr. Hardy asked him.

"To find my destiny! Tell Tim and Ruby I said thanks!" And just like that, Jack was gone.

Part 2: Jill

Jill also lived the easy life. She lived at the Mineral Inn in Mineral Town. Her father, Doug, owned the Inn, and Jill and her sister, Ann, worked there. Jill was used to the city life, and loved it. She was outgoing and chipper. She also longed for a boy named Cliff, who stayed at the Inn. Opposites must attract, because Cliff was quiet and shy. Jill still liked him all the same.

One day, Cliff left the village. He had run out of money, and could not find a job. This had made Jill very depressed. She was so depressed, that she did not leave her bed for a season. She did a lot of thinking. What am I supposed to do? When I was little, I always dreamed that somebody would come and sweep me off of my feet, and we would be happy together. I thought that person was Cliff. Maybe I just haven't found them yet. I hope I will soon… she went to sleep. One day, her father came and tried to talk some sense into her.

"Jill, you need to get out. Do something with your life. Meet a man, get married. Cliff is gone, and you need to get over it."

"Daddy, I'm perfectly fine with staying and working here. I appreciate your concern, though."

"But Jill, your 23 years old. Don't you want to get out of here? And besides, you aren't working anyways. You've been in here so long you missed your own birthday."

"Well, I'm sorry Daddy, but I'm…"

"YOUR BIRTHDAY ISN'T FOR ANOTHER SEASON, YET! Do you get it, honey?"

"But what about Ann? She's working here and you don't care about her."

"Honey, Ann left for a town called Flowerbud Village about 2 weeks ago. But, she did write a letter. She said that there is something called the Exciting Ranch Plan. They are giving away free ranches to whoever wants them. That is where you could go!"

"Wait, you want to get rid of me…" Jill fainted.

She dreamt. First, she saw her sister. She was talking to her.

Come to Flowerbud Village…

Exciting Ranch Plan…

Her sister faded. Then someone new came in. Jill had never seen this guy before. He had brown hair, a light blue cap and blue jean overalls. He was talking to her, too.

Become a Rancher…

Become Happy…

Jill snapped awake.

"That dream, wait, who was that? How could he know that I would be happy? Maybe I should go to that town. Yeah. Yeah! I'm gonna go!" So, Jill packed her bags and was off. She was going to be happy.
