I opened my eyes to find an open field, stretching on and on for miles. I stood up, looking at the sky, and saw that the time of day was around noon. I decided to start moving away from the field, so that I would be able to find someone I know. As I walked through the field, I wondered why no one was using it to grow any crops, seeing as a the field was pretty flat. As I neared a small stream I saw why; the water was a dark greenish brown, and it smelled like a mixture of sewage and rotting meat. There was no way someone would be able to grow plants with water that polluted. I decided to follow the stream to see if I could help with the problem, and soon enough I found what I assumed was the problem. The stream had widened out into a river, and you couldn’t see the water because it was so covered in trash. I got on my hands and knees, pulling garbage from the water as it passed me. As I did, I started seeing where the smell of rotting meat was coming from. Lots of the fish in the river went belly-up. I didn’t want to touch any of the fish, so I enlisted a local giant crab(it could speak) and together we started cleaning out the river. An old man walked up to us, though, and started scolding us on sticking our heads into something we shouldn’t be. The crab pushed him into the river and the old man turned into a salmon and started swimming upstream.
