Mia sighed softly as she walked around neutral grounds, hoping to at least find something interesting.

She always tried to enter the neutral grounds now and then, no magic could really happen, and this relieved her. She still felt somewhat connected to the neutral grounds, especially since nobody here would be able to use any form of magic whatsoever.

Walking to the middle of the road, the female looked down and minded her own business. That was until she was stopped by an old man in rags, and this man didn’t appear to be friendly at all. He was waving his stick out in front of her, and he even had a folder under his arm.

Initially, Mia had no idea what to do about the situation. Here she was, minding her own business, and here is an old man who decided it was fantastic idea to make her 5 minutes in life absolute hell, he was even telling her that she cannot pass at all. This made Mia groan and decide to finally listen to him, but only in a much safer area.

“Calm down, let's get to a path and we can talk.” The female reassured him after she slowly but surely guided the old geezer across to the other end of the street.

“Now, what seems to be the problem??” She asked with a serious tone of voice. “And please don’t answer like you’re in a hurry. That never solves anyone's problems.”

“My name is Gandalf, and I have come to you because the Pillowship of the Bed could not do it. Fell asleep on the job! You just can’t get the staff these days!” Gandalf explained before he looked to Mia with pleading eyes. “There is an evil artifact, known as the bed of power. It is a truly horrible artifact, and it must be destroyed…”

This all seemed to be rather iffy to Mia, but it can’t be that bad if magic can’t be used here, right?? Nonetheless, she felt compelled to take the job and so nodded towards the old man who suddenly stopped her moments earlier.

“Okay, I will take the job. Is there anything I need to know??”

With no more questions answered, Gandalf shoved a folder in her hands and hurried off.

“I need more fireworks…” He mumbled to himself before he looked to Mia one last time, hurrying himself off again. “Good luck!”

Giving the old man a weird look, Mia then opened the folder to reveal vital information. This included the name of the store, and what the artifact looked like.

It was a bloody bed, Mia couldn’t believe what she was seeing. The artifact was a bed. It was a really boring looking bed too, nothing like the extravagant ones back at her house. Nonetheless, it made Mia feel more compelled to destroy the bed because it was really ugly. Ugly beds didn’t deserve to have a place in the world.

“Oh my god.” The girl sighed softly as she then walked towards the store. “This cannot be right. This is gonna suck.”

Like usual, Mia was expecting all sorts of things when she entered the store, but there were a few things that the young woman didn’t expect.

One of the things she didn’t expect was a man who appeared to be the stores manager looked at her and then immediately started to throw things at her. Another thing she didn’t expect was a pair of small kids who were holding sticks. They were in front of her all of a sudden and they looked like they needed some entertaining. What was worse was that when Mia walked off and started to look around in desperation for this stupid bed, she had the same darn kids poking her butt, giggling to each other as they continued.

Groaning, the female looked to them and gave the little kids an evil glare before walking towards them menacingly, even giving them the evil eyes and poked out her index finger and started doing what she remembered doing a long time ago as a child.

“Devil finger… devil finger!” She chanted as she then attempted to poke one of the kids with this so called devil finger. Funnily enough, it made them run off. It also caused a group of people all clad in weird robes watch her with curious intent and also gave her the evil eyes, one's much better than Mia would have pulled off in her entire lifetime, or so she would like to think.

A few seconds afterwards, the group of robed people that were glaring at Mia started to sing a choir song of sorts in their loudest pitches and it caused a pain for everyone who was shopping. They were singing horribly! It caused Mia to wonder how they got their bloody jobs in the first place!

Sighing softly, Mia quickly dashed to a quieter bit of the shop, and there it was… it was bed of power! Mia then shook her before tutting. She found the bed to be much more uglier than it was in the files and it caused her to shiver.

With the bed in front of her, she thought it was going to be so easy…

Oh, how she was so wrong…

She heard a cough from behind her, which caused her to also look behind her. She saw someone who seemed to be a very horrible person, and they had their arms crossed as they glared at her as if the two were posing for some sort of wrestling magazine or something.

“You have my child, and I demand the kid back immediately.”

“I don’t have any darned child!” Mia insisted. She didn’t realise she had the child until she tried to walk away and felt something heavy. It was like she was getting towed away and she was the car. “This is not cool!” She stated while she felt like she was going to sweat out her anxiety or something. All this time, she still had the manager seemingly stalk her and now she had a kid on her leg?!

“Just take the bloody child.” Mia then instructed as she then watched the babysitter trying to take the kid off her leg, but it resulted in the child crying and cradling Mia’s leg harder.

That was when she had an idea…

“If you want your child you are going to have to trust me on this!” She exclaimed as she then ran as fast as she could, even though that was pretty difficult considering the fact that the child made her running speed much slower.

She then charged straight at the bed, elbowing safety glass which contained an axe while she was at it and then used all her strength to axe the bed in smithereens.

The kid, shocked at what she was doing, ran off into their babysitters arms and then the babysitter gave Mia a hacky look before she left.

Soon after that, the young woman quickly left the store. She wanted to go back home… she didn’t need this pamplemousse at all. So that’s what she done. She quickly got herself ready to go back home.
