Hey guys, sorry for the wait. These past few weeks have been hard for me. First my sister leaves her daughter her with us for a week and I had to tend her. Plus I wasn't able to practice my guitar or find enough time to write this. Then my mom makes me go job hunting, because she says I can't sit around all day. Thanks mom. Anyway it's been too long of a wait. I would like to thank DuchessPinkcat for giving me more OC's and I would like to thank Kai Asakura, and Konata the Chao. You guys are awesome and thanks for being patient with me. Here's the next chapter. In case some of you are wondering, the story will soon take a turn for the worst for Kyle. Right now it's just a flashback to how he ended up where he was. Thanks again and don't forget to review and to send in an OC.

(Kyle's Pov)

Cecilia was right about the monsters. We had barely left at six in the morning and now it's around four o'clock and we were almost done. All we had left was the Trieste Forest. Everywhere had been filled with monsters. At the start we could easily sneak by, but now that it was later in the day, I had been forced to fight.I don't know what's up but whatever it is, it can't be good.

"I'm sorry; I didn't expect everywhere to have so many monsters." Cecilia said to me.

"That's alright. We both underestimated that." I told her.

"Still, what do you think is going to happen?

"I don't know, but whatever it is, we'll be ready for it."

"I hope so."

We soon made our way into the very back of the forest and were surprised to see that there weren't any monsters in there. Also we couldn't see any stones that we could break with the hammer.

"Looks like the end of the road." I said aloud.

"Shoot, I was hoping that there would be some more stones that we could break." Cecilia said back to me.

"Let's head back to the town, I'm so tired that I don't think I can fight anymore."

Cecilia nodded her head and we left the Trieste Forest quickly. Thankfully we didn't run into any monsters. There's an uneasy feeling that I have, that something bad is going to happen very soon.

As we stepped back into the town, Cecilia and I had said good bye and went our separate ways. She was needed back at the Inn to help Egan prepare dinner and I was exhausted from all of that fighting.

I went into the square and decided to look at the Request Board. I know that it seemed stupid to look at it even though I'm tired but if it was an easy request then I would take it.

"Having fun there, Kyle?" a voice said, right beside me.

When I turned around I was looking at Alicia, the town's fortune teller. Though most of her fortunes don't always come true.

"You know me, always helping out others." I replied back.

"How would you like to have your fortune told right now?"

"I don't have any money on me right now. Sorry."

"This one's for free. What do you say?"

"Alright."

Alicia closed her eyes and started to chant her "special" words. It makes me wonder how long it took her to make all of those words up. For me it would take a while. Anyway she opened her eyes and said;

"I can see it clearly."

"What? What do you see?"

"I see you in the future Kyle. You and your family, you are very happy and will live a peaceful life."

"Well, that's a great fortune. Thank you Alicia."

"You're welcome, and if you're looking for someone to marry, don't forget me."

With that Alicia walked away. I soon realized that Alicia had feelings for me and had wanted to marry me, as well as start a family.

"Well might as well go back to what I was doing before Alicia came."

While looking at the board I found an easy request. It was from Barrett, and he wanted somebody to find his book for him. I took on the request and went out to find his book.

I didn't know where to look first so I decided to ask him. I'm lucky that he stands right outside of the General Store. I went up to him to ask him where I should look.

"Hey Barrett." I greeted.

"Hello." He said.

"I took on your request and I was wondering where you left your book?"

"I think I left it either by the Cherry Blossom Trees or at the church."

"Thanks Barrett."

"Whatever."

I headed over to the Cherry Blossom Trees only to turn up empty handed. I could tell at a glance that his book wouldn't be there. A book would stand out easily. Not wasting any more time I headed over to the church. The second I walked in I ran into Gordon.

"Hello Kyle." He said.

"Hello Gordon." I replied back.

"Do you know whose book this is? I found it and I don't know whose it is. Plus it's hard to read."

"That must be Barrett's. He had a request on the board, asking for someone to find his book for him."

"I'm guessing that someone was you right?"

"Right. So could I have the book, please?"

"Sure. Here you go."

Gordon handed me the book and as I was about to leave he said something that I wish he would forget.

"Let's hope this doesn't end up like that Wooly incident. That was hilarious, and I still can't believe that because of you Byron had to put up a limit for how many requests you do."

"That Wooly was asking for it and it's not funny."

"Whatever you say Kyle."

I left the church and went down to where Barrett was.

"Here's your book, Barrett."

"Thanks."

"No problem."

Seeing as that was all I was going to get out of him I left and headed back home. When I got there I went in and decided to make dinner. Only I was out of ingredients, plus I was still tired from this morning from fighting all of those monsters. I wasn't sure on what to do when I remembered that Yue sold food. So I grabbed some money and went out to find her.

I found her right by the road that leads outside the town.

"Yue." I called out to her.

"Hey Kyle, how can I help you today?" She said cheerfully.

"I would like to buy some dinner."

"What would you like?"

"Could I have some pizza?"

"Sure, here you go."

"Thanks."

"You're welcome. I'm glad that you buy things from me Kyle."

"Why's that?"

"Because, every time I see you it just makes my day."

The next thing I know, Yue came close to me and kissed me on my cheek, then whispered in my ear;

"I'm glad I fell in love with you."

After she said I just stood there in shock. Yue just giggled and told me that she needed to head to other houses to sell things. She thought by doing this, she would make more money. I went back to my home and took my pizza to the dinner table. While eating I couldn't help but get a strange feeling. Almost as if I was forgetting something important.

Once I finished eating I went up stairs to get ready for bed. What I had forgotten had come back and smacked me hard. I realized that all seven girls in town were in love with me.

"I am so screwed." I thought to myself.

Not sure on what to do, I crawled into my bed. But sleep would not come to me tonight. Little did I know that my troubles were almost here, and when they got here, they weren't going to be pretty.
