" Your crazy!"

" I am."

" Pony, you really think you can tackle on the ranch like your Father did? Your just a young girl! You won't even last a week! You really want to give up all of this city life for a stupid farm life, like your Father did?"

" Yep. "

" Well, just because he took care of a ranch, doesn't mean you have to do it to!"

" I know."

" Then why are you telling me you want the job at your Father's ranch? Just because he passed away, does not mean you must fill in for him."

" I hate the city."

" If you hate the city, then you'll hate the ranch even more! They won't have the same technology as us."

" Awesome."

" Your so much like your Father! Ugh, you see why I divorced him now?"

" You don't understand, Mom."

Pony's Mother sighed, " Honey, I only want whats best for you... The reason why your Father and I got a divorce, is because I did not want to live a farm life. I've tried for him and I could not just take it anymore. Trust me, you'll want your city life back once you try to work on the ranch. Even though we live in this little apartment, your house on the ranch will even be smaller than this."

"So?"

" You don't talk much, do you? Your just like your Father... You sure you want to try working on the ranch like him?"

" Yes."

" Alright... But, you sure?"

" Mom," Pony replied smiling and added, " I'm Dad's daughter... Its in my veins."

Pony's Mother died a week later.

...

Dear Takakura,

My life in the city is not the life I want. Ever since I was a little girl, I've always dreamed about working on the ranch like my Father did. I want to learn everything there is to know about farming from you and I have many questions. I want to try working on the farm.

Pony

That was the letter he received from his old friend's daughter.

He was staring out into Forget-Me-Not Valley's ocean.

A young woman suddenly walked up to him in silence.

He scanned her.

She had brunette hair that was tied up in a odd pony tail that split up in two and bounced whenever she walked. Her straight long bangs covered her forehead. He knew if Pony let her hair down, it would be extremely long. Pony's eyes were the color of violet and shined brightly. She was wearing a tight t-shirt that was white and orange. In the middle of her shirt, it said, "komono" and had orange surrounding the white words in a circle. A tiny ribbon was attached to her green mini skirt ;however, she had tight long jeans under. Tan was the color of her huge shoes and her shoe laces were black. She also was carrying a rucksack on her back. Something then caught his eye, she was wearing the same black and red gloves her Father had worn.

" You're your father's daughter, all right."

Pony nodded.

" It's a shame about your father, but fate works in mysterious ways. Anyways, I'm sure hes in a better place," he told her while turning around and added, " Come on... The farms this way..."

She followed behind him slowly, as he muttered, " Your a weird one like your father."

Pony only closed her eyes and smiled towards his comment.

Meanwhile, there was commotion in Forget-Me-Not Valley's Blue Bar.

Two young adults named Muffy and Rock were talking.

Muffy had long curly blond hair and wore a attractive red dress and a tiny sky blue jacket. Her eyes looked like emeralds as she was known as the prettiest woman in the valley. Well, at least she thought that.

Rock had blond hair as well and excited looking hazel eyes. His blond bangs were parted. He wore a gold round necklace around his neck. His shirt was sky blue as he had a interesting white pattern of two white stripes go down his shirt and had yellow stripes at the ends of his sleeves. He was known as the flirt of the valley. Not very bright on brains though.

"So, the daughter of the rancher is moving here?" Muffy questioned him.

" Yeah! I can't wait," Rock told her excitedly and muttered, " I bet shes a babe."

Muffy rolled her eyes and said, " But a young women working on a ranch is really a rare site."

A fearful thought then struck Muffy's mind, I hope shes not prettier than me!

Suddenly, a young adult girl came in the Blue Bar with long brunette hair. A orange bandanna was placed on her head firmly, as she had charming hazel eyes, a dark green dress and on top of the dress was a light green apron. Her name was Celia, she was one of the sweetest girls in the valley.

" Muffy, I'm here to drop off your order," Celia stated as she handed Muffy some carrots.

" Thank you," Muffy replied smiling as she obtained the carrots and put them away.

Rock chuckled, " Looks like you guys are going to have some competition now."

Celia raised a eyebrow of curiosity, " Oh really? What do you mean?"

" Well, rumor has it that the daughter of the old rancher is moving here today!" Muffy exclaimed.

" Oh, that sounds nice," Celia said heart warming.

" Even though I think work is totally pointless and shes wasting her time, I think I might like her," Rock told the two girls while he kept chuckling to himself.

Muffy was annoyed with his comment and coughed , " Moron."

"So... She bought the ranch?" Celia questioned.

" I guess so..." Muffy said uncertainly.

Rock kept chuckling, " I also heard shes a city girl... Wow, she sounds like such a babe!"

" Shut. Up. Rock!"

Meanwhile back on the ranch, Takakura was giving Pony a tour of the ranch.

" Okay, so you named your dog Spot and you named your cow Love. Then, what will you name this ranch?"

" Harvest."

" Harvest? Weird name... I mean, that sounds like a good name," Takakura spoke nervously.

Pony nodded.

" I'm not really a people person, but you probably need some friends. So, come on."

Takakura took Pony to Forget-Me-Not Valley's Inn.

A family of three were standing outside the inn.

" This is Tim and Ruby. And the blond one is their son named Rock," he explained.

Tim smiled, Ruby bowed happily, and Rock gave Pony a huge smile.

She is a babe! Rock thought happily.

Rock walked up to Pony, " Whats your name babe-"

" Pony."

Rock looked puzzled, Pony? Weird name, but cute.

Takakura seemed a little disturbed with Rock's attitude.

" Um, come on, lets go to the Blue Bar next," Takakura stated, leading Pony to the next building.

Rock's parents went inside, as he watched Pony go towards the Blue Bar.

What a babe! He thought and went back inside the Inn.

Muffy and her boss Griffin were standing outside the Blue Bar.

The blond hair girl scanned Pony.

Muffy excitedly smiled with her eyes closed and thought, Nope. I'm way prettier than her.

A hour later, Takakura had finally finished the tour of Forget-Me-Not Valley.

" Phew. That took a lot out of me... Oh yeah, just to let you know, its always been a dream of your Dad's to run a family farm. So... Try to settle down soon. Well, you should start work tomorrow and eat some dinner now. If you need me, you know where to find me," Takaura stated and started walking away back into his house.

Sadly, Pony only knew the possible bachelors were, Marlin, Rock, and Gustafa

Pony turned around and to her surprise she saw three little sprites.

One yellow.

One red.

One blue.

" Who is this Harvest Sprite?" One of them questioned.

" Who is it?"

" Who is it?"

" Who is it?"

Pony felt a little annoyed with them repeating such things ;however, she only smiled.

" I'm Pony."

" Ah, your the Harvest Sprite named Pony!" The yellow sprite stated.

They must know my Dad, Pony thought uncertainly.

Pony suddenly blinked her eyes closed for a second and reopened them again.

The little elf looking people were gone.

Pony just kept blinking motionless.

Suddenly, Pony gasped in shock.

Pony just remembered that she needed to buy some seeds for tomorrow.

She started to sprint towards Vesta's place. It was only about dinner time, so they probably were still selling seeds.

Pony panted as she knocked on the door and she went in when Marlin unlocked it.

She stared at Marlin as he and her were the only ones in the room.

Um... Why is she staring at me like that...? Marlin thought a little disturbed.

Marlin wasn't the most happy go lucky guy. He had black curly hair that complemented his emerald green eyes. He was wearing a simple white shirt that showed off some of his abs and simple blue jeans.

" Uh... You wanna buy something?" Marlin asked awkwardly.

Pony nodded.

" Twelve tomato seeds please," she asked politely.

" Okay... That will be... Uh..."

Marlin wasn't very good with math so instead he told her, " Since your new here, take them for free."

" That is really kind of you. Thank you," Pony smiled sweetly and took her seeds.

Marlin didn't know why ;however, he felt his face heating up.

Pony exited the house and headed back home.

She didn't know why, but she felt as if something was missing.

Something exciting.

Something mysterious.

Something romantic.

...

It was getting dark but Pony had the urge to start working on her fields right now.

She giggled to herself as she started to walk towards the tool shed.

Suddenly, she heard a familiar voice screaming.

"Thief! Come back here, you thief!"

She saw Rock shouting as if no one was there.

Suddenly, Pony saw a boy with silver hair enter her ranch near the spring entrance.

Raising a eyebrow, she walked up to him in curiosity.

He was startled at first ;however, he didn't show it.

Pony scanned his face. He was rather attractive. His eyes were like emerald and his silver hair was like a hot mystery. He wore a black necklace that seemed pretty valuable. His shirt was spotted black and while the background was white. His pants were as violet as Pony's eyes.

" Whats this? I thought this ranch was abandoned. Now it has a beautiful maiden in it? Are you lost on this fine night, lovely lady?" He questioned her with his seductive voice.

Pony was in silence.

" Are you a thief?" Pony questioned calmly.

" Hm. You catch on fast. Yes, you can call me Phantom Skye. Prince Of The Stars, " he told her and then smirked at her.

" And someone is chasing you?"

" Yes, but I'm a bit pressed for time, so if you don't mind lovely, I must jet."

Skye turned around to leave towards the exit.

Pony suddenly heard Rock coming into the other entrance towards her farm and he shouted, " Babe! Are you here?"

Rock didn't see Skye or Pony yet.

The brunette suddenly grabbed Skye's wrist, " Hide in my animal barn."

Skye was once puzzled again, " What?"

" Do it."

" Hm... A lovely innocent looking maiden like you is helping out a thief like me? Thank you," Skye laughed and slithered into her animal barn.

This better not be a trap... Skye thought suspicious.

Rock suddenly saw Pony and sprinted to her.

" Babe, are you okay? There was a thief here that just went into the Inn! His name is Phantom Skye, and he steals from this valley a lot! Don't worry babe, Rock's here to protect you!" Rock told her, as he tried to slide his arm around her.

Pony moved away awkwardly.

" No. I saw no one," Pony lied.

She was a good liar.

Skye heard what Pony said and he was somewhat shocked.

Why is this girl helping me...? Interesting... Skye thought.

" Oh. Well, if you see him, I'll so beat that silver hair jerk to a pulp!" Rock told her with confidence and clenched his fist.

" Cool."

" Well, its getting late now. I'm going to go back to the Inn. See ya, Babe."

Rock left her ranch.

Pony sighed as she entered her animal barn.

To her surprise, Skye was petting her cow.

He looked up to her, " I think this cow likes me."

" Maybe. "

" So, why did you help me?"

" I have my reasons," she told him truthfully.

" So, I never did get your name? What is it, beautiful?"

" Pony."

" Pony? Such a radiant name. I thank you for helping me. Now, I'm afraid I'm a bit pressed for time as I said before. I have a feeling we will meet again," he told her and then winked, " It's in the stars."

Author Note: I had this story in my head for so long now! Its a combination of Harvest Moon Another Wonderful and Harvest Moon Ds Cute.

Except in this one, you don't have to collect 60 sprites.

And I'm not really positive if 'komono' is what it says on Pony's shirt.

Also, I'm really sorry if their is any errors or grammar mistakes.

Thank you so much for reading and I would be happy if you guys took the time to review this.

I'll update when I can.

Thanks.
