Chapter 2 - Chocobo Farmer

Years have passed and Yuto is now eighteen years old and wore the same outfit, but it was for his size which he stood six foot. He was helping the other worker expand the fence.

"Good, work Lord Yamada," said a worker.

"You don't have to call me that just call me Yuto," said Yuto.

"But one day you will be in charge of our work," said a worker.

"Yes, but that will be a long time before that happened Father still has a long life ahead still," said Yuto.

"That's true Lars is a good man his family has run this town since the beginning," said a worker.

"Well, tonight is the annual Chocobo Parade," said Yuto.

"Ah, right the big party that celebrates Chocochew founding," said A worker.

"Yeah, it's almost time for us to end work for the day and get ready for the parade," said Yuto. They all head home so they can get ready.

Yuto heads into his home where his parents were getting ready.

"Yuto? Is that you?" asked Lars.

"Yeah, it's me I just got the fence done," said Yuto.

"Great," said Lars. He came out and he was wearing a fancy suit with a black tie that had a gold Chocobo logo on it.

"You look great, Dad," said Yuto.

"Thanks, my boy. You should dress up for the big parade," said Lars.

"Well, I plan to groom some of the Chocobos in the barn tonight," said Yuto.

"Always into your work I see well my boy you need to learn to live a bit," said Lars.

"I know Dad, but I promise Whitetail I'll fix her talons," said Yuto.

"Ah, that one Chocobo you attached to, I will admit she a beautiful bird," said Lars. "Alright, son enjoy your time grooming but if you get time how about you enjoy the festival Knowing some people it might go on till the next hahaha," said Lars with a chuckle. Yuto gets his grooming kit for his Chocobos and heads to the barn.

He heads into the barn and heads to a closed stall with the name engraved on the wood outside the door.

"Whitetail," it said on the door to the stall. Yuto looks in and sees a white adult chocobo which was the same one he chased into the woods when he was younger. Yuto has helped raise this bird since then and Lars has given Chocobo to him as a gift and Yuto would give her the name, Whitetail.

"Hey, girl," said Yuto. Whitetail looks at Yuto.

"Kweh!" She goes with excitement. Yuto gets a bucket nearby and fills it up with gysahl greens and fruits and other veggies. He heads into the stall with it and Whitetail helps herself to the bucket. Yuto starts to brush her feather gently with his brush in his kit. Whitetail sits on the ground so he can get her better while he is sitting on a chair.

"Good girl," said Yuto as he makes sure to brush everywhere. Yuto starts to dread the next part as he must work on her talons to see if there is any damage to them. He starts to put on a protected vest to protect himself just in case Whitetail does not like what she feels and kicks him and a kick from a Chocobo could break a rip or a couple. She usually lets him do it, but Yuto does not take that chance.

"Alright, place your foot on the chair," said Yuto as he got up from it. She puts her left foot on the chair. He looks at it and sees it fine.

"Alright, the other one girl," said Yuto. She switches feet. He checks the right one and sees a piece of her talon broken and hanging off it. Yuto grabs a pair of large tweezers for Chocobos.

"Here we go," said Yuto. He grabs the piece of broken talon and yanks it off with the tool. Whitetail did not react to it. He reaches and gets a fill and starts filling her talon where it was broken off.

"Alright," said Yuto. She flaps her wings and shakes herself.

"Kweh! Kweh!" She goes happily.

"That's good," said Yuto. He would hear an explosion outside. This made Yuto get up and look outside.

Yuto gets outside and sees the town is on fire.

"Oh, no," said Yuto. He takes off for the town to see what is going on there.
