Raiden walked back over to the table and sat next to Gladice. Happy that it was over, but of course it wasn't over until everything was tallied up and the winner blahblahblah happened. But, he sat with a dumb smile on his face.

Ah~! That was.. indeed, delicious, however, the fact it was something he knew Gladice must have enjoyed, he silently shook his head, giving disapproval just because of his disdain for Gladice for once during that festival! Hey, she couldn't say he liked when she wasn't Gaston! And no one could know the inner workings of such a fine, intricate mind as his! He moved onto the next table, which was his beloved pet Florence! He did raise an eyebrow at the lack of.. Florence.. Hm, strange. He wondered where it could have possibly..? He wasn't sure, but all he saw was a chocolate delight with ice cream! Ah, he loved sprinkles~ He cut a bit of the chocolate piece off, assuming the shape was yet another Chinese symbol he didn't know of, and took a bite~

( +1 for being Florence! )

..It wasn't terrible.. but, it wasn't delicious either! He didn't see why Florence had to be bashful and hide like he had..! Ah, well, he would figure it out someday. ..Or not, considering the man still thought his apple tree had run away from him and not been cut down to make way for his new private playground. Regardless, Gaston moved onto the next table (Xeiro) which was.. coconut again! It looked different, though they were still balls with coconut on them.. Just like mother again! But, mother hadn't done as well as that winery couple had.. Perhaps he should - ah! It was perfect~! In display, at least! He smiled and took a bite, dropping his previous thoughts in favor of taking an expectedly delicious snack~

Mm.. It was terrible, but at least it looked pretty, so he didn't really react as exaggeratively as per usual. Instead, he frowned and left the table to go onto the next one, leaving Xeiro's poor excuse for coconut rolls behind. Next was.. Una and Dante. He looked at what they made which was - aha! Again! It looked beautiful~! He had never seen such cakes before, but they did look pretty! So, he took a bite!

..And yet they weren't as delicious as the winery couple has managed. Oh, well, Gaston would just have to learn that not everything could be perfect everytime. ..Unless they were Gaston, of course! He chuckled at that and moved onto the next table, which was.. the Chinese man and the.. purple haired woman. Their jelly was - his word! It was perfect! He couldn't believe how wonderful it looked~! It was perhaps the prettiest dish he had seen yet during that round! He seemed quite pleased while he took a bite~!

..Ugh.. It.. it was another one of those. Pretty to look at, but not as tasty as it appeared! Why couldn't everything have as much substance as Gaston?! He didn't understand! The man frowned and moved on to the next table, which was his favorite lady, Alanis. The last round hadn't impressed him, but he did love Alanis and.. Lucas was awake this time. He would give them yet another chance to amaze him! So, he took a bite~

( +1 for being Alanis! )

Yet again.. But, he didn't blame Alanis this time. Oh, no. It was Lucas! Lucas for being groggy and not.. not being enough in love with Alanis as he should be! He sent a glare of warning at the boy before marching to the next table. Really, some people needed to learn when they were meant to be together! Especially if it made such godly creations as the first round had! Ah, next table, though.. which was Haruka and Nanami! He almost smiled at the pretty ladies when he saw the disgusting creation they had made. ..Dear god, what was it?! He didn't know! But, he had to be brave~! He had to try it! For the statue's sake!

It looked bad AND tasted bad! What a surprise! He rolled his eyes in sarcasm and dropped whatever utensil he had made in favor of leaving the pair so he didn't ruin every chance he had at having them! Really. He shook his head and came to the ugly girl and pretty boy combination once again. Keith and.. Cindy.. Or something like that. He looked at their salad and raised his eyebrows in surprise! It was actually pretty this time! Maybe it could please him~?

Delicious! Gaston didn't know he could find such wonderful work from such an ugly girl! Maybe it was a sign? Perhaps she would eventually blossom into something beautiful~? He didn't know and he didn't particularly care to find out, but at least the food was wonderful! Once he finished eating his share, he went on to the next table, Fleurette and that cute little boy! He looked at their plate and frowned. ..Not that good.. At least it wasn't completely horrible. Oh, well. He took a bite regardless.

..It wasn't horrible.. at least. He still didn't know what to say. Fleurette was the better hairstylist, how could she possibly be so average?! If only for this round.. He had to blame the child for this one, he supposed, as he went to the final and last table. The cute, new redhead! He smiled as charmingly as Gaston could and looked over her.. dish.. Well, wasn't this a lovely way to end the rounds? He frowned at it, but gave it a taste nonetheless before heading off to the judging table to finish the scores.

( +1 for being cute and 'new'~ )

Everything was now tasted and all the scores were put together. It was time for Glaice to announce the final results. She would skip over the results of the 3rd round because, really what everyone want to know was who was the runner up and 3rd place! Yes, those two because there was no need to ponder on who was the winner. That much was obvious. She walked to the microphone.

"Well, this is the time to announce the final results. Going from the shameful bottom to the top....

In last place, with 10 points lower than the next, loosing in such shame that suicide should be expected, Walter Dolones and Intergra Windsgate. You mihgt be a good bartender, boy, but you should keep away form the kitchen...

Jack Walker - 42 points. Fisherman should stay at see, Jack. Your ideas where good but it stopped there. Maybe if the theme had been seafood you would have done better...

Alex Park - 47 points. For a professional cook, you disapointed us Alex. You should focus on relearning the base, or maybe even changing profession.

Nanami and Haruka Koyoma - 47points. For someone who did so good last year, you sure have fallen. We blame your mother. Next year, you should join alone once again.

Kaleb and Ilya - 52points. The ideas were good, but you lacked control on your instrument. Learn to control your emotions and come back next year.

Xiero Niami - 56points. Your cooking was not bad, but we where disappointed in the last round. We were expecting more from a baker.

Mao Xiqui and Freja Von Der Bach - 57points. Your plates were very.... different. Maybe a tad too much unique. We can not judge what we do not know....

Florence V - 60 points. How could a bug be on the top three for two rounds, we shall never know. Shame to everyone under it and congratulations to those who did better..... Where's Florence?

Mystery Girl X - 60points. You were so good last year, what happen to your talent? Then again, maybe you stayed the same and it was just that the other one were better....

Dante Tepes and Una Anderson - 63points. Don't come back next year. Seriously, I mean it. Well, the girl is okay. Not the boy.

Gwen Bloom - 63points. Very good cooking. You did well. Still room for improvement, however. Train a bit and return to us next year, we'll be waiting.


Now, for the top three, in 3rd place, for the second year in a row, which makes me proud as a Grandmother...

Keith LeBlanc and Conor Alvery - 67points. Greath technique. We can see a lot of potential in you. However, it is still raw and the display needs some improvement. With some formal training you could do good. Come see me one day, I'd teach you some tips and trick. You win 300$ in gift certificate for groceries.

This year Runner up, to our great surprise and enjoyement...

Fleurette Starke and Maxwell Knight - 73points. Great job you two! Your food was at the same time very well done, pretty and original. Not to mention, you were a really cute pair. We do not have any critisim to give you. Keep up the good work and come back next year. You win 500$ in gift certificate for Groceries.

And the winner, the one ranking on first place, without any surprise, another grandchildren and pride of mine, winning by almost ten points more than the Runner Up:

Alanis Leblanc and Lucas Grey with 85 points. You have impress us with everyone of your dish. Gaston was ready to declare you winner with your appetizer. Your Turtle braise stole my heart and your Desert even made Raiden smile! This was nothing short of perfection. Without a doubt, you two are the winner of this years. You each get 750$ in cash, plus a month worth of Groceries to do as you please.

Furthermore, Gast- uh... We have decied to offer the top three winner a chance to work for out usele- uh.... Great Mayor, being cook for his Wedding. Alanis will be the Head Chief, Lucas her second hand and the other 4 working for them... if so they chose, of course....

That is all for this year, people. I hope you enjoyed it. The various meals are still there to be tasted by anyone who wish to do. Come back next year.

Cooking Festival ❤ ❤ ❤
(Mystery Girl X) (Frederick K. Murrow) (Maxwell McKnight)

MGX didn't pout, she did look heartbroken though. She wanted that money, to buy foods! Then again, she can't store food in the clinic.. so it doesn't really matter. So she simply exited. /Exit Mystery Girl X

Maxwell smirked. Only second? Ah, maybe next time. At least they were in the top three, a very nice development considering that he does not consider himself a good alchemist.. despite cooking every meal in the duplex. Damn NPCs. "You may keep the prize for yourself, I do not need for groceries." He now turned to face her, arms crossed, with a cute little smile on his face. "It was a pleasure to work alongside you Ms Fleurette, but now I must make my leave, hopefully our paths will cross once more, no?" Maxwell now turned to face away from her, and walked away to go back home before it gets dark. He may be a noble and brave knight.. but he still had a curfew! /Exit Maxwell

Frederick was mostly silent in the tree.. until he took all the leftover food. Really, they didn't eat it all, and they would have probably just thrown it all away! So he sneaked away the best plates when no one was looking, and was currently eating them in his tree. Hey, he has to eat after all! /Close enough to an exit for Freddy? XD

By the time the judging was over, Alex was dead. He had placed third to last. Third. To. Last. Bottom three, featuring Alex Park. All of those years at culinary school... and he ended up placing in the bottom three, losing to... well, a bunch of ******** amateurs! This would probably be the biggest mistake of his entire life. Sure, he was being melodramatic, but his pride had been wounded! Not just wounded, but thrown to the ground and stomped on. He quickly left the square, hoping that no one would see him. This would take a while to live down, he was sure.


Haruka was a little disappointed, but since Gladice hadn't blamed her sudden failure on her, she wasn't really that upset. Besides, the look on her mother's face was enough to make anyone feel better.

Nanami was stunned. Not only had they done terribly, Gladice had blamed it on her! Hey, it wasn't her fault she couldn't cook to save her life! Though, to be fair, that alone was enough for most people to just skip on participating all together. Eventually she noticed Haruka smirking at her, and quickly protested, before deciding to just go home. It was a disappointing year, but it had been her punishment. Might as well grin and bear it.


-Exit Alex, Nanami, and Haruka-

Well, that sucked. Gemma had stayed at the side-lines, cheering on the only two people in the town she actually knew! And they had, unfortunately, not won. Gemma's little hope that Haruka would win was destroyed, and that old lady even blamed her mother on it! Wow, Nanami had to be crushed! But, since she didn't really know them that well, she didn't really feel too bad.

Matthew had also cheered for the Koyama team, if less than Gemma, in any case. He threw in a few for Keith, too... but, just a handful of times, maybe even less. One thing's for sure, NEVER mention the Cooking Festival to Nanami, ever. Thank heavens Carly wasn't here, she'd be devastated! If only because she'd work up the courage to leave the house, and then to see her friend lose...?

"Well, that's life, I guess."

"No, that just sucks."

-Exit Matthew and Gemma-

"I think ill agree with her on that one." Walter laughed lightly.

"Shutup! Its not funny! Im a better cook than that i know it! I just panicked." Integra started making excuses as she and Walter left.

"Right ol girl. Stage fright is all." Walter said before he burst out into laughter. Which he promptly got smacked in the arm for.

-exit Walter an Integra-

"JA! Fifth ist not bad! I Vill take ztat!" Una smiled as she shouted and jumped up and down. She hugged Dante and ran off to go tell her Uncle how good she did this year!
-exit Una-

"Why does she hate me?!" Dante said in awe. They had done good but the old mean lady had told him never to come back ever. Why? What? "I dont understand!" Dante said as he started to sniffle, tears welling up in his eyes.

Wait? Where was Raiden? could he go cry in his nice manly arms? Wait why was he crying over this? Raiden seemed to like the last plate. Dante tried looking around for the light haired male, still standing at his station looking like a fool.

Sniffling Dante sucked it up and headed over to Raiden. His hands were in fists and he looked upset enough, but not complete blubbering fool yet. "Hi. I dont know why she hates me! I came in 5th thats good right?! Do you want to go out sometime?!" Dante said all at once before realizing it.

Dante's eyes snapped wide and he put a hand over his mouth. "Sorry.." He blushed furiously. Oh he was stupid stupid! What was wrong with him Idiot! Dante meantally cursed himself. Now he was sure he looked like an insane person... technically he was.. but that wasnt the point right now.

What was the point? Uhhh... Raiden was hot. No the other point you fool! The mean old lady.. was mean? Yeah! Thats it! Now hug me dammit and comfort me! Dante thought to Raiden. If he was telepathic he would get it.. otherwise probably not.
