"Thank you again! We will look over these and make sure we follow the rules more thoroughly!" A Blue Steve tells me before he closes the door. I smiled at him for as long as could before the door fully closed in front of my face. I took a deep breath and let exhaustion leak out of me.

These past two days have been a mess.

I've been helping all of the Blue and Indigo Steves adjust to the change of living in the overworked. Most of them are being cod sued by how hot and melting the days have become. I have to explain how it's usually not this hot, especially not for this long. With that being the last house I needed to go to today I slowly made my way home.

As I walked many Steves looked at me. Most of them noticed how exhausted I looked. A few gave me dirty looks. Not all of the Steves have been happy with the arrival of so many Steves. Especially the Yellow Steves. Food was quickly limited to make sure there was enough for everyone. The air still felt hot even with the setting sun.

I've barely seen any of the leaders around either. When I do they are in a busy rush or by themselves trying to rest. Light Steve has been working especially hard to keep everyone in check. I try not to bother them because of it. I just hope they have been getting more rest than I have.

I kept my head low and got some sweat off my forehead. I'll need to clean my blindfold out later. Many Steves stayed inside or went off to spend at the lakes to beat the heat. I don't have the luxury of being able to teleport whenever I wish. So I do whatever I can to take the heat off my mind.

Before I could even make it to my house I saw a Colorless Guard about to knock on the door. I waved to them.

"I'm over here! Did you need something!" I called out and picked up my pace to meet up with them. I couldn't even imagine how hot they were in their metal armor.

"Looks like I got here just in time then. I have a letter from the leaders. Don't speak of the news until tomorrow. They want to announce it in the morning." He stretched his hand out and showed me a sealed envelope in his hand. I nodded and took it from him.

"I won't thank you for coming over. Try to stay cool." I thanked them politely. They give me a firm nod before making their way back to the Rainbow Citadel. I headed inside and closed the door behind me. My legs ached from how much I had been up and about for the last two days. I slid myself against the door to slowly sit down for a moment. I looked at the letter in hand. I hope this is good news from the leaders. I gently opened the envelope before unfolding the paper and read through the letter.
