It was a usual day in Dust Town, everyone was going to work, cars filling crowds as usual, alot of stores being filled with customers. The usual. But there was a interesting part about this town, the janitors, alot of janitors over the years have had history of sweeping people's homes or any places. Making them the only notorious people of the town, as the name of the town was derived from when the town was very dusty until a team of sweepers swept It all away, but there's one janitor or worker in particular, Ryan Swefford. He was a notorious kid who always cleaned people's desired places, and he was always wearing a broomstick on his back. He would go around town and get paid for his job. It was a delightful thing for him, matter of fact. Being a sweeper was his passion. His fulfilment in his life. He would often clean houses and help cats off trees, clean every section of houses and even sweep balconies too.

Two kids were busy sweeping their boss's store.

"Hey have you ever heard of the guy ryan before?."

"Nope, who's that?"

"I hear that he's popular due to his amazing broomstick skills. He seems to be talk of the town sometimes."

"That's not even a impressive thing, I could be the talk of town too if I wanted to but I wouldn't want too much fame to increase my ego."

"Well, whatever. Keep sweeping."

They kept cleaning until they saw a bicycle stop infront of the shops, it was the legend himself. Ryan Swefford.

One of the kids looked up and paused from sweeping.

"Hey you, get out of here, this is private property."

He said to ryan, ryan looked at the kid with furrowed eyebrows

"Nonsense. No place is safe from being sweeped by me, and you guys seem to not enjoying your jobs. Where's the enthusiasm?"

Ryan said as he walked upto them, Taunting them for their lack of passion in cleaning

"Here let me do this."

He pushed the kids away and gripped the broomstick from his back and started to sweep, the sweeping was almost perfect from how coordinated Ryan was sweeping the floor and sweeping it all away. 

The kids were stunned from this

"You're..  you're ryan?.. the guy who's notorious for cleaning alot of things?"

The kid asked, ryan faced the kid while placing the broom on his shoulder.

"Yup that's me. Ryan Swefford."

The kids were in shock at it for abit. Until they stopped.

"Stop trying to look cool infront of people, you just want to have attention don't you?"

"What? No of course not. I just want some money."

They argued.

"Look you two should just settle down and keep sweeping, unless you guys want me to do it, it's fine by me."

"No way we're letting you get all the money and fame!"

The kids tried to confront ryan but ryan immediately jumped onto his bicycle and padded away.

"See ya!" 

Ryan said as he rode his bike away. Riding for a bit until he took a stop and placed it on a wall, he then opened the door to his house and closed it. He walked inside as he saw his cat eating the pizza he was eating.

"Hey come on, sweepy. Get off of my food... on second thought nevermind. You already ate all of it."

Ryan said, the cat peed on the pizza box and jumped off. Ryan sighed in disappointment as he wished to eat the pizza he was saving, he then sat down and grabbed the notebook that was on the couch. Opening it as he looked at the list of places he should clean next, his phone rang and picked it up, it was Bobby.

"Heya sonny, care to come by my house and clean my roof? It's been super dusty every since... I bought the house."

Bobby said through the phone.

"No problem Mr Bobby, just give me a few minutes to be there, after all I had a long day."

Ryan said, Bobby sighed.

"Fine.." then Bobby hung up on the phone,

Ryan then would turn on the tv to see anything new, he turned on the news channel, News9, and there wasn't anything new except something "new" .

There was a news of a Doctor/Proffesors going by the name Dr Koala, with a Koala on his shoulder, he's going to present a presentation at the world presentation hub, where people of dust town show off their newest inventions, and that invention of dr koala is said to "change the world forever." Ryan seems amused and decides to switch to their channel, checking their inventions, one invention was the Strawberry Phone 19, it had new features, such as a bigger camera a wider screen, and a portable way to carry your strawberries, wich ultimately led to the strawberry being crushed. The next showcase was the all new all improved, PolyBox 6 Series 100, it could play any game you would like, you could stream games that are now considered ancient, you can even make the video game console give your grandmother a foot massage, it was estatic and not to mention its compatibility to play games in 300k. After those presentations. There came Dr Koala, his invention was covered in a blanket, he stepped on stage with a proud smirk.

"Ahem ahem.. ladies and gentlemen, I'm very happy to have you all here for my presentation. As this presentation. Is going to change the world forever. This invention is so vastly different from everything you've seen. Your brains will be blown to bits!, except.. hopefully that doesn't actually happen."

He exclaimed. He then took of the blanket, showing off the high tech, futuristic. All new.

BR00M 1.0

"This broom was made to replace every single sweeper ever in existence. As this broom is powered by ai, and has automated features. It can even do the job for you."

Dr Koala said, he turned a button on and it started to sweep by itself. The crowd cheered and clapped. But ryan didn't. Through his old television screen. He was furious...

"Replace every sweeper?, what does this guy mean?.."

Ryan muttered to himself furiously. Dr Koala kept showing off the broom 1.0 as it astonished the crowd. It was a next step in technological evolution.

"This broom will replace every broomstick sweeper in the universe, and no sweeper will ever replace this technology! This is your sign to buy my new invention. All though you need to buy it in a few months. Since we still haven't prepared our shipping."

Dr Koala said the crowd roared in claps and whistles. This was a amazing invention. Yet a devastating blow to ryan. Ryan Swefford wasn't someone who didn't care about technology so long he could keep doing his job. No. He didn't want anyone to replace his beloved broomsticks with new ai powered brooms like that. This was a big threat to him, and a spit on every broomstick sweepers legacy. Ryan had a phone call, he picked up the phone in silence.

"Hey uh Is this Ryan's sweeping services? I would like for you to come to Sweep Street, number 15, next to that hospital please."

"That will have to wait."

Ryan hung up.
