Classmates Days Part 2

Chapter 100: Justine, Out on the Field

                I used to live on a farm, but after learning I could use magic, I was sent to this school. However, I did learn a spell to create and hid a guard in my room.

"Are you sure about this?" Cid asked with a curious expression.

"No, but I won't stop" I answered my guardian as I flicked my wand upward to make a small garden appear.

I was so relieved to see my small garden here in my room. I do like to grow some fruits for myself and friends. It is also very nice to share it others as well. I handed a few tomatoes to Cid and waited for him to take a taste. Cid hesitantly took a bite from the tomatoes. His expression then changed from being hesitant to being very happy!

"This is amazing!" Cid exclaimed in delight, "We need to sell them!"

This is not what I was hoping for. I am very glad he likes it though!

"Um, how are we going to sell my fruit?" I asked him as his expression brightened a bit more.

The next thing I knew, I was standing in Radiant Garden and holding a box of tomatoes in front of a duck and the ruler of the world. They each held my tomatoes and took a bite.

"This tomato is amazing! How did you grow this?" the ruler of this world asked me with a grin.

"I would like to personally sell your tomatoes across the worlds for a share of course" the duck said with a grin as he stared at the tomato with a very interested smile.

I wasn't sure what to do, so I turned to my guardian for an answer.

"Well, Ansem, we can only grow so much. As for you, Scrooge, we have to settle on a price" Cid said with a proud smile on his face.

Well, I guess they will be able to handle this without my input.

"I'll pay you enough money where you don't need to go to college!" Scrooge said with a big smile.

Good enough for me! I took his wing and shook it with delight.

"You've got yourself a deal!" I said with delight.

"Excellent! Bring two crates by tomorrow here!" Scrooge said with a grin.

Cid couldn't believe I took the deal so easily. I, however, do not want to go to college, so if I can make money and not have to go, I'll take it!

"Are you sure about this?" Cid asked surprised at how quickly I took the offer.

"Yes!" I said quickly and excitedly.

Then, we went back to my world to begin cultivating my tomatoes. For the next few days, we did nothing but work on my tomatoes. Once the two of us had enough crates ready to go.

"Alright, are you ready to make a bunch of money?!" Cid asked with delight.

"Yes!" I said quickly as I stacked up two of the crates.

I tapped my wand against the crates to levitate it. Cid opened the pathways to the other worlds while I pushed my crates through the portal. We arrived back at Cid's world with no trouble. This was going to be easy! I'm about to become a millionaire! As I placed the crates down, a bunch of those heartless appeared! Although, these heartless looked very different for the ones Nina and the Dreamers fought. These heartless look a lot like flan... Can I eat it?

"Justine! Are you ok?!" Cid shouted as he loaded up his cannon and was ready to blast the heartless back.

"I'm fine" I answered as I just stared at the heartless.

The heartless just stared back me with a curious expression. Cid placed his cannon on the ground and took one tomato out of the crate. He then handed it to the heartless. The heartless sniffed the tomato suspiciously and then took a bite of it.

"Do you think the flan likes it?" I asked in a whisper.

"I am not sure. I have never really experienced something like this before" Cid admitted as he looked at the flan closely.

Then, the flan jumped up in the air in delight!

"Aw! He does love my tomatoes!" I said with a bright smile as I prepared to take out another one to give to them.

"Justine! You can't do that! These are for your job!" Cid yelled as he tried to pull the tomatoes out of my hands.

However, one of the flans jumped on him! Then, another flan sat on top of that flan to wait for me to give him a tomato. I just shrugged and gave it one. Soon, a bunch of flans began to appear around us!

"This is insane..." I whispered as Cid finally pushed off the flan on top of him.

So many flans surrounded us and tried to take the tomatoes from us!

"This really went out of hand!" I yelled as I cast a spell to make the tomatoes fly into the air and away from the flans.

Now, no one but me can get the tomatoes! Of course, I was soon proven wrong. Horribly wrong. The flans began to stack on each other and tried to reach for the crates of tomatoes!

"I really thought that would work" I said with a sigh.

"Well, it didn't" Cid said with a sigh as the crates slowly floated away from us and the flans.

This really cannot get worse.

"What in blazes is going on here?!" Scrooge shouted annoyed and angry when he saw the swarm of Flan heartless.

Scrooge was able to put two and two together as he saw the flan heartless and the floating tomato crates.

"You really didn't feed them, did you?" Scrooge asked with a sigh as he saw the swarm of flan heartless coming towards him.

"They looked hungry!" I shouted as I prepared to find a way to stop the flan heartless.

Cid and I ran away as the crates of tomatoes flew over my head. We ran to Scrooge who also began to run away! We made our way to the castle and saw the two guards standing there and looking very concerned and slightly scared. Hey! Joe and Keenan are there too!

"What did you do?!" Joe exclaimed in shock as Keenan burst into a fit of laughter.

Before I could properly explain everything, my spell holding the crates of tomatoes timed out! The crates hit the ground as the tomatoes were either ruined or rolled out of the crates. We all just stood there as the flan heartless charged at us! Cid got out his cannon and began to blast the heartless while the two guards went to work at defeating the heartless with Joe and Keenan's help. As for me, I was trying to clean up the mess and apologized to Scrooge about this whole mess.

"Whew! That took a while" Joe said with a sigh.

"It could've been worse! If someone use a physical attack instead of a magic one, those flan heartless could've caused more harm by multiplying!" Keenan said as they sat down with me.

Scrooge had finished talking to Cid as they both approached me.

"We have reached an agreement about your tomatoes" Scrooge said seriously, "I will still let you supply the tomatoes, but two people have to accompany you with the crates to the shipyard. And next time, do not feed them!"

Oh man, I thought he was going to reject me as a partner! He didn't though! What a huge relief! I quickly shook his wing and reassured him that I would not mess up this second chance. That goodness for second chances! I am so grateful I have one! Now, I can really show Scrooge how good my tomatoes really are! As I also make the best and easiest cash in all the worlds!
