[ WP ] You Nervously Check To See If the Sky Is Indeed Purple .

Jesse moaned lowly as he pushed open the heavy steel door. Childishly, he kept his gaze low, what he could n't see maybe did n't exist. 
 
 All he'd needed to do was pull the damned levers, close the chutes. He knew this. But he was lazy. He wanted to get the sludge pushed through the heat bays and into processing. He'd started the conveyors, fired up the furnace and opened all the spouts. Sure, he'd get to the chutes but let's get the ball rolling first. 
 
 He did n't know they'd automatically lock up. He pushed and heaved but they would n't budge. He walked back to watch the bright blue and red glump pour down the conveyor and and drop into the heat pits. He could n't stop it now, what's the worst that could happen? 
 
 It was ten minutes before the first lumps of goo appeared at the loading bay. This was n't right at all. It was all burning off or something. Jesse scratched at his stubble adorned face. So he might get fired, was n't much he could do about it now. Heck, he did n't even know what the stuff was, what it was usually used for. He just knew what was coming out was n't right. He racked his brain before resolving to call Jonny on the work line. 
 
 `` Holy Shit! No. Do n't... It will all burn off. Wait, this IS happening?'' 
 
 `` Yeah, I started the fires before closing the chutes.'' 
 
 `` But you started the water pumps right?'' 
 
 That was it! Jesse finally breathed a sigh of relief. That's what else he forgot to do. `` Exactly. That's what it is. I'll go do that now.'' 
 
 `` Jesse! It's running no water with the chutes open? Are you fucking serious?'' 
 
 `` Uh... yeah, just a little bit.'' 
 
 `` Have you looked outside?'' 
 
 `` Sure. Thanks Jonny. Rushing to the pumps now. You want me to call you back?'' But Jonny was no longer there, he'd impolitely hung up. 
 
 The entire factory smelt ridiculously foul. Jesse could taste it. He pushed a series of switches to get the pumps started. Water poured down several wide thick pipes down into the belly of the industrial beast below. Immediately, steam shot back up from every crevice. Clanks and creaking started, quickly growing in volume. 
 
 Jesse took a step back, it was all not what was supposed to happen. The contraption began to shake and the rattling and clanking became loud, smacks of steel hitting other steel. This was all not right. 
 
 Jesse hurried, as much as anyone had ever seen him do so, down to the dock. He finally realized what Jonny meant about looking outside but he did n't want to look. Heck, what was this stuff used for anyways. 
 
 The thick steel door creaked open and Jesse slowly turned his head to the sky. 
 
 The sky was painted a bright, deep purple. Purple spewed from the smokestacks, fueling the enormous cloud of purple already hovering above the factory. 
 
 `` Ah nuts,'' Jesse softly said to himself before breaking into a brisk run.
