It had been about 2 years since Genesis had started her farm and she was very successful with it. Her field was lush with crops, her fruit and coffee orchard was full of life. Her 4 chickens were contently walking around, pecking the ground for bugs or worms. Her 3 cows and sheep were contently grazing away inside their fenced pasture while Luce, Genesis' pet grey wolf was on the look out for any wild dogs that may approach. Her black Friesian mare, Phantom, was contently grazing in her own fenced pasture. Lastly, Hedwig loved to fly around free, looking down at the farm from high above.
Genesis had just finished watering her crops when she had heard something coming from the beach. The Boat that usually came to pick up the shipment wouldn't come until much later so Genesis was a bit confused. As curious as she was, she rode Phantom down to the beach where there were a group of people whom Genesis guessed was a family.
"Oh look! There's someone! Maybe she can help us." The pink haired girl said. Genesis nudged Phantom and trotted over to the group.
"Excuse me miss, we seem to be stranded on this island. Do you happen to know where we are?" The old man asked.
Genesis nodded. "You're on Sunshine Islands. I'm the only one living here though. I run the ranch north of here." Genesis said quietly, not quite used to talking to others. Hermione and Ron only visited on holidays since they were so busy. "How did you get stranded here?"
"The Ship we were on was hit by a storm and sank." The pink haired woman said. "Everyone was able to make it to the lifeboats in time however, ours just ended up here."
Genesis nodded.
"Hmm...hey Felicia, how about we move here? This place is perfect and it already has a ranch to keep it going! We were looking for an unpopulated island anyways and this place would be perfect." The old man said. "You don't mind do you? Name's Taro by the way. This is my daughter Felicia and her two kids Natalie and Elliot."
Genesis discretely used a bit of Legilimency to check them, but they were genuinely kind and innocent people so she had no problem.
"You can move here if you want to. There are some abandoned houses on this part of the island, most of them are habitable. They just need some renovations and some cleaning up." Genesis said. "My name is Genesis. You can stay at my house for the night if you want, until I fix your houses up a bit so they're safe to live in. I'm no professional but I'm pretty handy with a toolbox."
"Oh! That's very kind of you! Thank you dear!" Felicia said.
Genesis nodded before leading them to her ranch, which Elliot and Natalie gasped at. Genesis had a big house and always kept a few spare rooms just in case something like this happened.
When Genesis got off her horse, Phantom immediately headed back to her pen with Luce watching. She then walked into her house with the family following.
"Nice house you got here." Natalie said as she looked around.
"Thanks." Genesis said with a small smile. She then lead them to her 2 spare rooms which each had a king sized bed. "Two can sleep in on each bed."
"Thank you dear!" Felicia said as she went to one room with Natalie while Elliot went with his grandfather.
Genesis then went to her toolbox and took out her portable toolbox. She went down to an old house that looked fit for their family and started to fix it up. When she knew no one was looking, she used magic to fix and clean some of the house up, careful not to make it suspiciously clean or perfectly fixed.
It was evening when she was done and she headed back, only to find that the family had took it upon themselves to herd back her animals. She looked around before heading back inside where she saw Felicia cooking and Taro writing some letters.
"Welcome back Genesis, I hope you don't mind me starting dinner. It's the least I can do since you're letting us stay here." Felicia said.
Genesis shook her head. "It's fine. I fixed up a house for you to live in. It's the house on the right if you go down the bridge. It's not perfect but it'll do."
"Thank you." Taro said. "Now then, I'm going to send these letters out to some friends of mine who could probably open up an animal shop and a general store. I've also written one to a carpenter."
"Or...you could just use the phone in the corner." Genesis said, smiling slightly.
Natalie and Elliot snickered while Felicia giggled.
"Oh...well then that saves a lot of time and trouble!" Taro said, heading over to make the call.
"Thanks again for letting us crash here for the night Genesis." Natalie said. "I hope we can be friends and all, especially since you're the only girl my age on this island."
Genesis smiled at that.
"I was wondering, how long have you lived here?" Elliot asked.
"...About 2 years." Genesis said.
"Why move here?" Natalie asked.
"I don't like crowded places." Genesis answered. "I like it here on my ranch. It's peaceful here with lots of fresh air."
Both Elliot and Natalie nodded in understanding.
"Well good news everyone! My friends are going to be coming here in a couple days." Taro announced.
The next few days went by fast as Natalie and Elliot helped around the farm. Genesis thought it was funny that Elliot was afraid of Luce.
Soon Taro's friends had arrived. Taro, Felicia and Genesis and gone to greet them.
"Hello there dear! My name is Mirabelle and this is my daughter Julia. We're planning to open up an animal shop here on the island!" Mirabelle said cheerfully.
Genesis nodded. "My name is Genesis, I'm the Rancher here. Nice to meet you."
"Hello there Genesis, My name is Chen and this is my son Charlie. I'll be opening up a general store that sells seeds for crops among other things." Chen said and Genesis nodded.
"My name is Gannon, and this is my daughter Eliza. I'm not sure if I'm going to move here yet but I'm here to fix up those abandon houses." Gannon said.
"Nice to meet you pretty lady!" Charlie said.
"Hmph! You're nearly as cute as me!" Eliza said, making Genesis sweatdrop.
There was no denying that Genesis was indeed a very beautiful woman. She ranked first in all wizard magazines for the #1 bachelorette for not only her looks, but for her power and wealth as well.
As Gannon worked on fixing up the houses, Genesis had lent Natalie's and Felicia's old guestroom to Mirabelle and Julia while Chen and Charlie had Taro's and Elliot's old guestroom. Gannon was going to spend the night at Taro's house and complemented on how Genesis did a pretty good job of fixing it up.
"Genesis dear, you don't mind if I use your phone do you?" Mirabelle asked. Genesis shook her head.
"Go ahead Mirabelle." Genesis said.
Since there wasn't much to do until everything was set up Julia had decided to join in on helping out on the ranch. Julia helped with the livestock while Natalie and Elliot helped with the crops.
A week had past since the new residents had moved onto the island. Gannon did some fast work and finished up the houses quickly and even decided move onto the island as well. Mirabelle and Julia had moved into their own shop and were getting everything ready. Chen and Charlie had also moved into their own completed shop and were getting everything ready as well. It was a new start for Sunshine Islands and its residents.
