Poké-Harvest Moon: Seeds of ParadiseThis is a 1x1 Roleplay for tokyoloverTM and Joe Fuzzy. Watching is perfectly fine, but unless you're tokyoloverTM or myself, please refrain from posting. Thank you! ~~~~~~~~~~~~~ This story takes place in the peaceful mountain town of Cellini, a place known more for it's obscurity than anything else in particular. Although the forest around the town is rumored to be a home to Celibi, and is also the guardian of the town. A small town with nothing in particular about it, until recently.
As of late, the crops have been failing. Some pokémon around the town have grown sick, and wild pokémon sightings have dropped significantly. Odd things are happening in Cellini. Will the people figure out what exactly is happening before it's too late?

Thomas RichardsAbove all else, Thomas Richards was tired. After fourteen hours of travel by cart, getting lost more times than he'd care to admit on mountain paths and forest roads, and one quick scrape with a viscous group of Pinsir, Thomas was ready to find Cellini. The town marked the end of a particularly odd load of items for the young merchant, consisting of uncommon farm equipment and a variety of spices native to a part of the country Thomas has yet to visit. Thankfully the people of Cellini had use for the particular wares, as the items had been burning a hole in Tom's cart for the past several weeks. "Can't wait to get all of these odd items off this blasted cart. Sooner I get there, sooner I can leave. I just hope I'm close. . ." Thomas mumbled to himself as he stretched his arms above his head in a futile attempt to keep from getting more tired than he already was. Within minutes, Thomas was as sound asleep as you can get on the hard bench of a cart.
Thomas, the cart, and Alke the apathetic Tauros pulled into Cellini shortly. Alke didn't slow or stop, however. As a well trained cart-puller, and more importantly a particularly apathetic Tauros to boot, Alke would not stop or slow his pace until Thomas pulled in on his reins. And the sleeping Thomas would be doing no such thing any time soon. So Alke trotted along, meandering through the outskirts of the town, pulling Thomas and his cart of farming equipment and spices along the well-worn road leading into the town center.

Melody was working in the field with her Leafeon, planting some new plants for the new spring season. " Mel! Can you go to the market and see if they got any new tools? Ares are starting to wear out." Her Father called out from across the field. "Alright!" Melody called back as she stand up and dusted off the dust on her dress. "Lets go Leafeon." She said with a smile. "Lea!~" Leafeon said happily before running off to town with Melody following behind. When The two got to town Melody looked around, wondering where she should go for tools When a Touros ran right into her. "KYAAAH!"

Thomas RichardsA jostling of the cart and the surprised 'muuurr!' of Alke stirred Thomas from his slumber. For the most part, Thomas was more asleep than awake at this point. It was a high pitched shriek that shocked Thomas into full alert mode. Eyes shot open and every muscle in Thomas' body tensed as he took a moment to take in his surroundings. He recognized that the shriek had originated with a girl coming into contact with Alke. As quickly as Thomas could manage, he tugged sharply on Alke's reins, pulling left to lessen the impact with the young woman. His reaction was too late to avoid coming into contact with the woman, and Alke's right flank bumped into the woman's right shoulder. The Tauros was going no faster than a meandering trot, but the sheer size of the pokémon all but insured that bruises would be sure to form.
Thomas watched in agony as the woman literally bounced off of the Tauros, landing on her bottom in the middle of the road. Around her, a leafeon stood in a defensive position. Thomas groaned under his breath as he analyzed the situation he found himself in. 'Ohhh GEEZ! This is bad. Really bad. I mean, we weren't going very fast, but still. Bruises. . . Fractures if I'm as unlucky as I feel right now! Oh why! Why did I have to doze off!!!' Thomas jumped off of the cart and ran over to the woman, stopping far enough away in order to not antagonize the leafeon. Rubbing the sleep from his eyes with one hand, Thomas spoke to the woman he unwittingly hit. The stress was more than noticeable in his tone, the words coming out of his mouth quickly.
"Oh my goodness! I'm so sorry! I must've dozed off! I'm sorry! Are you seriously injured?! Can I help you up? Oh, please don't be seriously hurt!"

Joe Fuzzy [/quote} When Melody landed on her butt she whimpered a little and rubbed her shoulder. "O-Ow..." She said quietly, rubbing her shoulder that the Tauros hit. Leafeon ran over to Melody, licking her hand, not paying any attention to Thomas at all. All the Leafeon cared about was Melody. Melody slowly got up, still holding her shoulder. " I-Im fine I just need to walk it off I think." She said with a weak smile. "Maybe you shouldn't be driving when your tired."

Thomas RichardsThomas sighed with relief as the woman explained that despite being hit in the shoulder by a Tauros, she would be fine. "Oh thank goodness!" You could hear the tension leave Thomas as he spoke the words. As far as first impressions go for new locations, this is easily within the top five worst experiences. Luckily, the woman was the only person present to the accident.
Taking what the woman said into account, Thomas took the time to wake himself fully by stretching before he spoke again. His tone was apologetic and completely sincere as he spoke again. "Again, I must apologize. You're right, it was beyond reckless of me to continue riding while tired. In order to fully apologize, I must insist you hop onto my cart. I'll take you wherever you need to be. Honest. . ." Thomas paused to let what he said sink in, and also to collect his thoughts. "Also, I have no idea where I need to go. I have a shipment of farming tools and spices, and only the word of an acquaintance that I could sell the items here. Perhaps you know of someone in need of these things."

"Oh no really I don't need a ride." Melody started but then stopped when he said he was selling tools. " Well you came to the right place because I am in need of farm tools." Melody said with a smile. " How about you give me a ride to my place. Im sure my father will want to look over your tools and I can show you around after." She said with a smile.

Thomas was pleased to hear the lady knew of someone in need of some of his tools. With luck, the merchant might even be able to sell the spices as well. Thomas' tone was much more cheerful as he spoke, raising a hand for the young woman to grab so she could climb onto his cart. "Oh! Well, it seems that I really have stopped in the right town! Please, lead on. Oh, uh. My name is Thomas Richards, by the way."

Melody took his Thomas's hand and climbed up onto the cart. "Nice to meat you Thomas. My name is Melody" She said with a sweat smile and giggle before sitting down. Leafeon jumped onto the cart and sat on Melody's lap.

Thomas couldn't help but blush slightly as Melody smiled and laughed. An unconscious reaction from years of experiences with women. 'Why am I even blushing?! I didn't do anything embarrassing. I guess its been a bit of a while since I heard a girl laughing because of me. . . I could get used to that.' The merchant turned away to hide his cheeks, and also to check the harness on Alke. The redness had faded from his cheeks before Thomas turned his attention back to the woman sitting on his cart.
"I'll walk with Alke down here, if you don't mind. I'm afraid if I sit, I might fall asleep again" Thomas explained. And it was true. The merchant could feel the sleep weighing his eyelids down. "So, which way is home?"

Melody nodded as she pet her Leafeon. "Yep I understand. Just follow that road tot he right up that fill. My home is the big farm of crops with a shop. I live at a crop farm and we have seed shop that we live in." Melody said as she pointed to the road that lead up a hill. "So where are you from and what brings you here?"

"Ah, I see. That's easy enough! We'll be there in no time. Come on Alke, forward." Thomas patted the Tauros on the side in an attempt to get the large pokemon moving. With a grunt, Alke slowly started up the hill. The cart wasn't any heavier than it was two minutes ago, Alke was just getting tired as well. If anything, Alke was more tired than even Thomas himself. But the Tauros was trained well, and made his way up to the house.
Thomas thought about the first question Melody asked. "Where am I from? Believe it or not, I'm from a big city waaay out east. Everyone who asks in this part of the country has never heard of it. As for what I'm doing here; I'm just here to sell some tools and spices. Got a good word about this little town from a friend of a friend."

Melody was a use to being on a cart because she uses a cart on her Rapidash when to id harvesting crops. " Oh really? You are from a big city? I would of never guess. It must be a big change for you." Melody said and looked around at her small town. "Well you came for the right place to sell tools. There are a lot of farmers here. As for spices I would try selling them to the inn/Bar." Melody said as she stroked her Leafeon who purred a bit.
