Chapter 1: Jack Arrives

He looked around at his new farm. A pasture, small house, three fields, and other small buildings....

Jack sighed as he dropped his suitcases on the dirt road. "How did I get myself into this?" he asked

himself. "Well, it's for dad......"

After thinking for two minutes, he finally picked up his bags and headed inside the house. He unpacked

all of his stuff and headed outside.

At the door was Takakura, Dad's old best friend who helped him run the farm. "Hello, Jack. Would

you like me to show you around everywhere?"

"Ahhh.... no thanks. I can do it by myself," Jack answered, trying to be as polite as possible.

"Uhh, OK. But if you have any questions, just ask me," he said.

Jack nodded. Then Takakura left, heading towards Mineral Town. "Well, better look around and try

planting something,"

As Jack went threw the shipping area, Takaura's house, he came across the Tool shed. He went inside

and took out all the tools in there.

After that, he started tilling some of the soil. Then he heard a mooing sound. "Huh?" Jack said as

he looked up from tilling the fertile soil.

"Moo!" cried something from the field. Jack put down his hoe and went over to the fields.

Jack gasped as he saw a full grown cow. "Wow! Takakura got me a cow? That's great!" he said as

he ran over to the cow and petted her.

"Hmmm..... what should I name you?" he wondered. "Ah-ha! I'll name you Betsy!" and she mooed

happily in reply. Jack laughed. "Good! You like it!" Then he milked her and placed the milk in the shipping shed.

He walked out of his farm and turned left, seeing a huge field of crops. 'Maybe I can find some

good seeds to plant there.'

As he walked into the fields, he saw a girl about his age with long brown hair and in a sort of

non-fashionable outfit. "Hello! I'm sorry I'm not a very good hostess..... would you like to buy something?"

'Kinda strange.' Jack thought. "I'll take 4 tomato seeds," The girl smiled. "That'd be 120G,"

He pulled out the money and gave it to her. He tunred around and started walking home.

"Wait! My name's Celia. What's yours?" she asked him.

He turned around to her. "I'm Jack. I moved into the MoonDrop farm after my father died," She nodded.

"Well... see ya!" she said to him. He waved good-bye.

'Well, she was cute, but a little too..... happy. Not the girl for me.' he thought. As he approached his house,

he was bout to turn but he decided against it.

"I think I'm gonna go look around. Maybe there's more cute girls around here," he said, heading

towards the Blue Bar.

As he approached it, he could here guitar music coming from inside. He walked in and felt a warm

felling.

"Welcome! Would you like something to drink?" asked a cute, blonde haired girl at the counter.

"Uhhh, yea. I'd like a blue punch," he said, looking at the menu.

"Comin' right up, handsome," she said. He just gave her a weird look as she came back with his drink.

She sat it on the table and then took a seat next to him. "Hey, handsome. What's your name?"

she asked, giving him a seductive look. He blushed. "Ummm.... I'm Jack....."

Her eyes widened. "Jack, you say? Sounds sexy..... I'm Muffy. I work her at the bar as the waitress,"

"That's nice," Jack said nervously, trying to drink his drink as quickly as possible so he could get out.

He finished it. "Uh, gotta go. Bye!" he said, running out, comepletely freaked. Muffy frowned. "That didn't

go according to plan,"

"She was very very cute, but just a tad bit scary. Maybe I need to get to know her better.' he then

visited all the houses around town.

At about 3 p.m., he got tired of looking for girls. So far he's only seen 2 girls his age. He finally gave up

and heading home.

As he got closer and closer to the house, he saw a red beautiful short red haired girl standing on the bridge.

"Wow...... she's pretty...." he said to himself quietly. He shyly walked up to the girl.

"Umm, hi! I'm Jack. I just moved into the farm right over there," Jack poitned to his farm. She didn't

even look at him. "You don't have to be so eager to say hi," she said. "My name's Nami," There was then

an wakward minute of complete silence.

She glanced at him. "Are you just going to stand there and stare at me?" she said to him coldly.

"Uhh... I'm sorry! Gotta go! Bye!" He said, nervously. He then walked away.

"So cute, yet so cold...." As Jack entered the house, he couldn't help but think about the three girls.

"Hmm.... I seem to find myself more drawn towards the blonde haired girl Muffy and the mysterious beauty, Nami.

Celia just seems too.... boring," he said to himself, yawning, and then he went to bed.

MEANWHILE, BACK AT THE BLUE BAR..........................

Muffy sat at a table in the bar. She was in deep thought. "Hmmm..... how could I possibly get close

to Jack without the other two interferring......" She sat there with her head on her hand. After about 5 minutes,

she sat straight up, and her eyes lighted up. "I've got a great idea!" she said, smiling evilly.

Like it? Don't like it? Please tell me what you think! Any comments would be helpful. The plot will be quite

emotional at the very end. This is my first AWL fic, so it's not the best. BTW... the plot will start forming even

better soon.
