A Tomato’s Not a Fruit~

“..You’ll be the strawberry, and… oh we’ve run out of fruits! Raine, I guess you’ll have to be the… Tomato!” The instuctor exclaimed. The other children laughed as they started the game. When all the other fruits have been chosen, she had sat alone on her chair, waiting for the moment when her vegetable would be called.
It was back when Raine was a tyke, her instructer had been playing a game with the children and randomly said tomato when she ran out of fruits. The instructor had forgotten that blueberries were fruits. Raine remembered, or rather dreamed about that moment then woke up with a start.

“Ugh! How could I fall asleep?! I have to keep training for mom!” Raine exclaimed with disgust. She was in Kerning, at the dead of night. She rolled over and looked at the smoke filled sky and sighed. Her “bed” was a place on the boxing ring that was next to the 1st job instructer, the Dark Lord. “You just wait. I’m going to become a thief whether you want me to or not.” She glared at the instructer then got up. She walked out slowly, and left the Jazz Bar she called home.

Her black spikey looking hair was neatly combed and washed. With a white tubetop she called a shirt, and a blue short skirt she had the impression of a newb. Armed with a weak sword she thought would snap soon and a black headband, with a soft face with red eyes, she looked strange. The girl drowsily walked over toward the portal that took her elsewhere. Entering the portal, she thought about sleep then scolded herself thoroughly. She had to do this for mom! Raine walked out and climbed, walked, ran, and jumped to the monsters. Then she slipped and fell down and into the green mushrooms. Oh. GREAT! she thought as the mushrooms almost killed her. The orphan jumped away just in time before she really was killed. That landed her at the orange- and yellow-dotted
mushrooms. Crap. she thought angrily again.

  2. next time, just edit your previous blog.
    Now I have to type my comment of the first “mistake” all over again T_T

    Anyways, I found this story to resemble that of “Fruits Baskets” a little too much. It kinda bothered me and annoyed me :
    Try to make it a bit more original.

    But otherwise, it is well written and neatly organized. Keep it up, I’d like to see more originality.

  3. I like this. Love the title. >.<

    I haven’t the time now, but I’ll definitely be back to read the rest of the series you’ve written so far. =)
