Chapter 1: The Beginning
It was a sunny day in Sunset Valley. A Tofunda Wagon had been seen stopping in front of a house named the Myrtle Bungalow.

This car belonged to the Redfields who had come from Twinbrook.

"We're finally here," said John Redfield.

Leona, John's daughter, spoke up next. "Wow! Mom, Dad, is this our new house?"

"Yes sweetheart," answered Lily, Leona's mother. "Do you like it?".

"Of course!" Leona said excitedly. "I have dreamed of living in a house near the beach...Can we go surfing now?"

John smiled. "Sorry Leona, not now..." he said. Leona frowned in disappointment. "Oh, and please wake your sister, tell her we have arrived."

Leona shook Jean, her twin sister, awake. Jean and Leona were the eldest children in the family. "Hey Jean, wake up! We're finally in Sunset Valley!" Jean opened her eyes, not sounding nearly as cheerful as Leona expected. "Oh, okay. That's nice." John and Lily noticed that Jean wasn't at all as happy as Leona.

Then they remembered that Jean did not actually want to move to Sunset Valley.

"Jean," Lily said, "I know you miss Twinbrook so much, but this is our home now, you will like this town, the neighbors are nice, and you'll get new friends here".

Hearing what her mother said, Jean felt better. "Thank you mom," she said. "I will try to like this place".

"That's my girl," said John.

Chapter 2: Bella Bachelor
The following day in Sunset Valley, Jean and Leona woke up and prepared for head off for school.

"Mom, do you think our new friends will as good as in Twinbrook?" Jean asked.

"Of course," Lily answered.

"Where's dad?" Leona noticed that John was not with them.

"Your dad is visiting his old friend," Lily answered.

"Oh you mean that Simis Bach... Bachle..." Leona wracked her brains for the name of the colorful character that her mother had described to her days earlier, "uh...what's that guy's name again?"

"Bachelor, Simis Bachelor," Lily answered. "And...yeah, her daughter, Bella, is the same age as you. Really nice girl, she is."

"Really? Wow Jean, I think we've just found our first friend!" Leona exclaimed.

8.00 AM

The school bus arrives.

"I think it's time to go," Leona said. She and her sister then said together, "Bye Mom, bye Chris." Leona and Jean entered the school bus. Jean felt nervous walking down the central aisle of the bus. Everyone was sitting together. It appeared they had already formed unaccessible cliques. Finally, at the back of the bus, a girl in a red dress greeted them.

"Hi," she said. "You must be Jean and Leona Redfield."

"Uh...yes," Jean said, "and you're...?"

"My name is Isabella Bachelor, you can call me Bella," the girl said. "I've heard about you from your dad."

"You mean you are Mr. Bachelor's daughter?" Leona asked. Bella nodded.

"Wow, we've also heard about you from Mom," Leona responded cheerfully. "Nice to meet you Bella"

"Nice to meet you too," said Bella, equally bubbly. "I hope we can be friends!"

Along the way to the school, Jean and Leona had a nice conversation with Bella. Bella told them that she was the youngest child in Bachelor household. Her father, Simis, worked as a reporter; her mother, Jocasta, had a part-time job in bookstore, while her brother, Michael, was a high school student who also attended the same community school with them. They felt comfortable with Bella, seeing that she was friendly towards them. Jean even thought that she was kinder than what her mother said.

The bus arrived right in front of the steps to the school building. One by the one the students shuffled through the front doors, chatting away as they walked down the corridors, towards their respective classrooms.

"You know, Leona," Jean quietly said to her sister, "I think I'm starting to like this place."

Chapter 3
Sunset Valley's dive bar was the place for romantic rendezvous.

Only this time it was more of a meeting between old friends.

John sat at the counter, listening to jazz music being played by the local band.

"So...you want another drink?" a man offered a second glass of nectar.

"Sure," John replied.

The man was Simis Bachelor, John's old friend. They first met in university and became "partners-in-crime". Their last meeting was at John's wedding.

"It's been a while," said Simis, "I never though that you would move here, John".

"Yeah, I always missed the time we pranked everyone in the dorm..." John reminisced about their university life, which included countless antics on their roommates. "And don't forget the time you freaked out when we locked you in the classroom at midnight".

"Yeah, that was the most beautiful moment in my entire life," Simis said sarcastically before laughing.

The two Sims continued to chat, talking about the past, and boasting about their respective families. John learned that Simis had met his wife, Jocasta, after the graduation. They felt in love at first sight and got married two years later. Simis also said that he planned to enrol his eldest son, Michael in the same University.

"So John, why don't you tell me your story" said Simis, "I really want to hear what have you've done after you and Lily got married. Oh, and I'd love to find out why you decided to move here!"

"Well, to answer your question, my decision to move here was made because I had a little family problem," John answered a little sheepishly. "You should know that my father wanted me to follow his footsteps and become a businessman."

"I see," Simis said, rather thoughtfully, "your father pressed you to follow him but you had another career path you wanted to follow?"

"Yes" said John, "and you already know what I wanted, right?".

"So it means you will go there now?" Simis asked again.

John didn't answer, but he smiled.

Meanwhile at school...

"Kids, we have some new people today!" the teacher said excitedly. "Jennifer, Leona, please come and introduce yourselves."

Jean spoke first. "My name is Jennifer Redfield, but you can call me Jean, nice to meet you all."

"Nice to meet you too," chanted the class, as though it were rehearsed regularly.

Leona introduced herself next. "My name is Leona Redfield, nice to meet you all!"

"Good, now you two can take your seats," said the teacher.

Leona took her seat next to Darlene Bunch while Jean took her seat next to a boy with baseball cap.

Jean noticed that she already met the boy somewhere.

"Hi, my name is Alex Curtiz, I'm.. uh.. your neighbor" said the boy, shyly.

"Oh it's you!" Jean said, "I never expected that you were in my class! Nice to meet you by the way"

During the class, Jean noticed that Alex stared at her too much, making her slightly uncomfortable.

Leona noticed it, and when the bell rang for the next class, she quietly said to Jean, "Jean, I think that Curtiz boy likes you."

Chapter 4: Mortimer Goth
12 P.M

In the school cafeteria, all the students met up for lunch. Jean noticed that there were not only elementary school students, but also middle school and high school students.

"Jean, Leona, this is my brother Michael," Bella introduced her brother, Michael Bachelor, one of the high school students.

"Nice to meet you Jean and Leona" said Michael, "I hope you can be good friends with my sister." He winked.

After Michael left, Bella, Jean, and Leona joined Darlene. They started a conversation about their math teacher who Leona though be a "clumsy old man".

"Hi Kaylynn, come here, join us!" Bella invited a girl who passed through them.

"Oh, thanks Bella," said the girl.

"Jean, Leona, this is Kaylynn Langerak," Bella introduced the girl excitedly, "she's our senior, a fifth grader."

"Oh hi, nice too meet you Jean and Leona" said Kaylynn.

Jean and Leona learned that Kaylynn's mother was a Department Head in Doo Peas Corporate Tower. Kaylynn seemed to be a big-sister-like figure for most third and fourth graders.

In the middle of the conversation, Jean noticed, almost out of sight, a boy sitting alone at the corner of the room. The boy seemed very lonely.

"Bella, who's that boy?" Jean asked.

"Oh, he's my friend," Bella answered, "his name is Mortimer Goth, his class is next to ours".

"Actually he's her boyfriend," said Darlene jokingly.

"Darlene!" Bella blushed, which made everyone laugh.

"I'll ask him to join us here." Bella went to Mortimer's seat, and asked him to join the group.

After several minutes, Mortimer finally stood up, walked over and sat down with them. Jean and Leona learned that Mortimer was the only child of the famous Goth family. His parents were busy with their jobs, made him felt lonely. Bella was his only friend.

"Nice to meet you Mortimer," said Jean nicely.

"Yeah whatever," said Mortimer glumly. It was as if he was irritated by Jean's kind words.

"What a cold guy," Leona whispered to herself. She felt that she probably won't be able to get along well with him.

Chapter 5: The Interview
The City Hall, the place where people tried to change the world as politician.

"This is it John" said Simis, "Sunset Valley's City hall".

"Yeah" John answered "Becoming politician always be my long time dream".

"Then good luck John" said Simis "Do your best to realize it".

"Yeah, thanks" John smiled.

John walked through the corridor, he enter a room where a mid aged woman await for him.

"You must be John Redfield" said the woman

"Y-yes mam, I'm John Redfield" said John, "and you must be..."

"Vita Alto..." said the woman "glad to see you".

John took his seat and gave Vita his Curriculum Vitae.

"Let's see" Vita start to read the CV, "Johnathan Redfield, born in Twinbrook 36 years ago. Graduated from Stary Community School and Sim University. Once became a department head for 8 years until resigned four months ago... so interesting".

John didn't said any words.

"Well John, tell me, why you prefer politician as your career?" Vita asked.

"My grandfather was a politician in Twinbrook..." Jonh answered "...he doesn't need long time to become the city's mayor. I saw him as a great figure, for me and for the entire town."

"and then?" Vita asked again.

"One day he told me his dream..." John continued his story, "...my grandfather wanted to create a free world for Sim Nation"

"A free world?" Vita seems confused "what's that?"

"You can said a world where people get their rights, peace, and Justice, no more suppression." said John, "but, he died before he could realized his dream."

"Oh, I see" said Vita "So you want to continue his dream to create a free world?"

"Yes mam" said John.

"Well, since I like your spirit I'll happy to accept you to work here" said Vita

"Really?" John surprised

"Yes, but for the first, I'll put you as our Campaign Intern. But with spirit like that, You probably can promoted as City Council Member faster" said Vita again.

"Y-Yes, thank you mam!" John excited, still can not believe his job application approved.

John leaved the office, he seems happy with this approval. Vita still in her room, watch him from the window"

"John Redfield... what an interesting guy" Vita smirked.

chapter 6
'3.00 P.M'

Leona and Jean were dropped from the school bus.

"Man... I really hate that Goth guy..." Leona grumbled "I mean, he's really annoying, no wonder he didn't have any friends".

"Well, he's lucky Bella was cared of him" Jean said.

The twins found that they got guests in their house.

"Oh, you must be Jean and Leona" an Asian woman greet them "you're cuter than I though".

"Oh, welcome back dear" Lily appeared from the kitchen "I'm sure you've meet our neighbor, Pauline Wan".

"And yeah, this is her husband, Hank" Lily introduced a muscular man who sat in the sofa.

"Actually, we're not married yet Mrs. Redfield" Pauline said.

"Hello kids, officer Hank Goddard at your service" Hank introduced himself.

"A police officer? cool!" Leona surprised "I always loved to see a police whenever they're in action".

Leona really liked hank and saw him as a "cool guy".

"So, Mrs. Redfield, have you received the party invitation yet?" Pauline asked "every household in this town are invited."

"You mean this?" Lily showed Pauline the invitation "I'm not sure I'll come to this party, I'm so nervous since my family is still new in this town."

"You don't need to nervous" Pauline said "Just come to the party and having fun, and yeah, you will like the Goths, they're really nice."

"Did you say the Goths?" Leona asked.

"Yes, dear, and I'm sure you've meet their son in the school, right?" Pauline said.

"Yes Ms. Wan" Leona snorted 'I've meet him".

Chapter 7: The Goths
The Goth family was one of three richest and most respected family in Sunset Valley (the other two would be the Alto and Landgraab). The Goth's patriarch, Gunther was the founder of the town himself, but he decided to gave the Landgraabs to had more control.

"How many people invited in this party?" Jean wondered

"Well, they're almost the entire citizens here" Bella answered "Most of the citizens feel honored if Mr. Goth invite them since they're all respect him as the city's founding father".

"Where's Leona by the way?" Bella noticed Leona wasn't there

"She will here soon, I asked her to bring us some cookies" Jean answered.

While Bella and Jean chatted, Darlene suddenly ran into them.

"Jean... Bella... Help!" Darlene panicked "Leona... She... she's fighting with Mortimer!"

"What!?" Jean and Bella shocked.

Jean and Bella ran to the backyard, they saw Leona and Mortimer were surrounded by everyone. John, Lily, and Mortimer's mother, Cornelia tried to calm their child who still argued each other.

"YOU'RE REALLY THE MOST ANNOYING PERSON THAT I'VE EVER SEEN!" Leona yelled at Mortimer.

"OH YEAH!?" Mortimer answered "AND YOU KNOW WHAT? YOU'RE ONLY A RABBLE!"

"Oh gosh, Mortimer!" Bella ran into the crowd.

"Leona stop!" Jean shouted

However, Leona and Mortimer still argued each other even the adults tried to calm them.

"ENOUGH!" A man voice suddenly heard from the crowd, it was Mortimer's father, Gunther Goth.

Gunther looked at Mortimer in anger, Mortimer seen scared.

"Mortimer, how many times I must asked to behave?" He started to lecture his son "And you now fight with a girl!? What a shame!"

"But dad, she's trying to take these cookies..." Mortimer defended himself.

"Off course she is, these foods are for guests, and she's one of our guests!" Gunther said "Now go to your room and think about your fault!"

"But dad..." Mortimer sulked.

"NOW!" Gunther scolded him harder.

Everyone watched it in silent, never saw that Gunther who they know as nice man can be this angry.

"Come'on son, we go to your room" Cornelia accompanied his son.

After this fight incident, the party continued.

"I, I really sorry Mr. Goth, I will asked my daughter to behave" John apologized.

"No, no, I should be the one who apologized" Gunther said "and oh yeah, just call me Gunther by the way".

"Oh, yes, nice to know you" John said.

"So you're new here? What do you think about our town?" Cornelia asked nicely.

"Yeah, this city is beautiful, as beautiful as Riverview" Lily answered.

"Oh, you were from Riverview? Our honeymoon was also in Riverview" Cornelia said excitedly.

"Yes, I was born and raised there before moved to Twinbrook for ten years" Lily answered.

"And John, would you tell me your story why you moved here?" Gunther asked.

"Oh, well, it's a long story" John answered.

"Well, I think it's private reason, isn't it?" Gunther asked again.

"Yeah, you can say that" John said.

Meanwhile, a limo parked in front of the Goth house. It was the Landgraab family. Vita and her husband, Nick noticed them.

"Oh look who're here Nicky" Vita said "It's our old friend". -To be Continued-
