Mayor Gideon was working in his office. He was trying to decide if he should allow grocery stores in Suelatro. All of a sudden, Mayor Gideon heard a boom. The lights in his office flickered. The ceiling fan shook. All of Suelatro broke out screaming.

   Steve woke up the next morning with pizza and Señor Fluffy still on his lap. He got up, yawned, stretched, and plopped back down onto his bed. He slapped himself in the face, then got up to get ready for work. Though he had no memory of a strange dream, Steve was is a haze of green monsters and Wandas, so he forgot to eat breakfast. He forgot that he had a car as well, so he ended up walking to the pillow factory without realizing that there's a faster and more efficient way of travel.

~~~~~~time skip brought to you by the raiders~~~~~~~read The Last of Our Souls to find out who that is~~~~~~

As he arrived at the factory, his boss, Joseph, walked up to him.
   "Where in the gigantic-wide-enormous-huge-big-extensive-spectacular-large-dark-empty belly of a whale have you been, Steve?!?" Joseph shouted at Steve, who was still a few feet from him.
   "Um... on the way to work sir?" Steve said, confused.
   "Steve..." Joseph started, "have you been sleeping more that the average Mapdonia citizen? Because that's your job and you wouldn't want to loose it!"
   "What, no, sir, I just, um missed the bus-er-car and-" Steve tried to say, before Joseph interrupted.
   "I don't want excuses Steve! Anyway I came to tell you that you will no longer be putting the pillows in the Smusher 7,063. Your new partner will be responsible for that. I think you'll quite like her." Joseph said, then he turned and walked away quickly.
"Wah-sir-partner?" Steve stuttered. He had never had a partner before, and he didn't want to share his smushing job. However,  his boss was not a man to be messed with, so the defeated feeling Steve walked glumly to the testing area and got out the first pillow.
"Um, hi." Said a beautiful, young, and twinkley voice. Steve froze. Omg omg omg omg omg omg omg omg omg Steve thought to himself. He turned around and saw none other than the magnificent Wanda, who gave a small wave and an annoyed smile. "Ya, so, um, I was told to tell you to give the defected, deformed, or bumpy pillows to me because-"
"Avacot makes the best non-defected-or-deformed-or-bumpy pillows in all of Mapdonia!" Steve and Wanda stated happily together.
"Woah... you know the motto!" Steve said in awe.
"Uh, ya. I work here now. I know all the aspects that must be obtained to have this job." Wanda responded, as if it was obvious (And it was). Wanda turned to go give the other pillow testers the same news.
"She's amazing..." Steve said, almost drunkly.

During the 263 pillow that Steve tested, he had yet another odd dream.

The dream opened in a bright, white, never ending space. After what seemed to be only a few seconds, a sleepy looking man dressed in red and blue popped out of nowhere, along with a girl dressed the same way, and slapped the 'camera' where the dream was being viewed from.

Steve woke up rubbing his cheek, soon realizing that he hadn't really been slapped and that he wasn't really hurt. Then he remembered his amazing discovery that he discovered last night.
"Me." Steve said. "Me." Steve dropped the pillow he was holding and ran over to the Smusher 7,063.

"Wanda Wanda Wanda Wanda Wanda Wanda Wanda Wanda Wanda Wanda Wanda Wanda" Steve said, gasping for breath. After a few awkward minutes of Wanda watching Steve hunched over, Steve took a deep breath and said, "I-need-help-to-save-all-of-Mapdonia-from-the-green-monster-heading-towards-Avacot-but-I-need-help-and-I-want-you-to-help-because-I'll-just-fall-asleep." He paused to take a breath, then continued," I-can-see-the-future-through-my-dreams-and-I-saw-a-big-green-monster-heading-towards-Avacot."

Wanda looked at Steve with a look filled with many things, and some I can only describe as the way a cat looks at a piece of grass, or in a more human description, the way you look at someone when they are being completely insane and you are worried about being within 5 feet of them. So it was no surprise that Wanda took a step away from Steve before speaking.

" Um... wow... that is a very interesting offer... but, um... well you see... I don't think that's possible... and well... I just got this job... I wouldn't want to run away from it just like that..." Wanda gave a nervous smile.

"You don't believe me?" Steve asked, a hurt expression on his face.

"Um... no not really. Sorry."

And with that, Wanda turned and continued with her work.
