Chapter 1-2: Starting Out

The Kimura Legacy: Generation 1

    Tori had the entire rest of the day ahead of her so she decided to do some exploring. She found the cutest little park right down the street from city hall. This entire town is just gorgeous she thought to herself. While exploring the park she found a public easel. No time like the present to get started on her painting skills. Plus, she could even hang up some of her own art in her clients houses!

    She spent hours painting, her only thoughts were that of her brush on the canvas. Her final results however were uh, well lets just say some 5 year old's could do a better job... God, I really suck at this hopefully with more practice I'll get better, there's no way I'd put this piece of crap in any of my clients homes. After her little painting fiasco she decided to visit the local town festival to lift her spirits a bit.

    The day was getting really hot so the first thing she did was go to the snow cone stand. "What flavor?" the concession stand worker asked simply.

Tori winked at him companionably "Hmmm, surprise me"

The worker gave a grin. "Now that's my kind of girl. Name's Joey, you new in town doll?"

"Well Joey, that depends on if you're flirting with me or not"

Joey let out a laugh "Doll, if you need to ask I guess you'll never know"

"Guess not" Tori grinned "My names Tori by the way, thanks for the cone Joey, see ya around."

    After she was finished with her cone, she amused herself by watching the local hot dog eating contest. The amount of food some of these people could stuff in their mouths was incredible. No way in hell would she be able to stuff that many hot dogs down her throat. The winner turned out to be the little brunette girl, which surprised her even more. Wouldn't want to be that kids parents when she got home.

    After that Tori needed to cool off again, so she brought out her inner child and had fun on the slip and slide. She couldn't remember the last time she'd had this much fun. It was definitely a great idea to come to the summer festival. She played on the slip and slide until dusk and then went home tired but happy. What an amazing first day in Eltham's Drift.

    Her stomach was starting to growl by the time she got home, so thank god that her tiny shack had come equipped with a toilet and a small fridge. She had some bread and jam and then decided to call it a night. 

    She unrolled her sleeping bag and slept her first night under the stars. The tiny little shack wasn't even big enough for her to sleep inside it. She drifted off thinking of her new start and her new job. Who knew what tomorrow would bring.
