It was 9:34pm and Dr. Daniel Colvert just arrived at the building where he thought that he was going to change things forever. His driver stopped him in front of the building and Dr. Daniel slowly came out of the car. Dr. Daniel was tall with a beard, a fair skin and wore spectacle. He came with his lab coat and obviously you could tell that he was a scientist and a really good one at that. Today was the day that almost all the great scientists gather in one building to discuss their discovery that could change the world and today Daniel got invited which he had been anticipating for a while. He was outside the car looking at the building while holding the car door open.“Sir, how long will I be waiting for you?” His driver asked from inside the care.“I won’t be long Simon, because once I show them what I have, they will have no choice but to stop everything that is to be done here today and I will make history,” Dr. Daniel said still looking at the building. “Well I will be going i
He thought of something else, he went to the car and open the door. “Get out of the car,” He told the driver. The driver was confused, he did not know what was going on but he could tell that Dr. Daniel was really tense and worried. “What happened sir? Did everything work out fine in there?” The driver said coming out of the car. “Everything went wrong and I want you to do something for me.” Dr. Daniel said. “I need you to take this chemicals and run away from here as fast as you can, do not let anyone see you, do not let anyone find you.” He gave the chemicals to the driver. “But sir…” The driver was about to say something but Dr. Daniel stopped him. “Just listen to me and don’t say anything. Go straight to my safe house, I will take the car and I will meet you there. Once you get there, stay there and wait for me.” Dr. Daniel said. The driver was confused but he just had to follow Dr. Daniel orders. He started to run the other direction away from the car. Immedi
John is Derick’s best friend, they have been close since they were young. After Derick’s father died, john was among the reason he did not break because john was always there for him. After a while of driving they got to school. They parked their bikes and chained it to a pole. There school was just a typical normal school filled with different kinds of people. After Derick’s father died, he was no longer the social type, he did not talk too much people because he had a lot on his mind and a mother to take of care. And John was the brainy type who was also social, well social with his fellow brainy type. They had already entered the school and were on their way to their lockers. As they were walking, a group of girls walked past them and John could not help but notice the way Derick was looking at one of the girls. “You know, I have to tell you this again, she is not in your league so why don’t you stop thinking about you and Celia together.” John got Derick’s attention
Derick was in his room, he just finished the food and thought of taking the plate back to the kitchen. He came out of his room and went downstairs. When he got downstairs, he looked at his mom again and she was fast asleep. And whenever he looked at his mom, thoughts would start to flow into his head, thoughts that he cannot control.He immediately when to the kitchen, when he got there he put the plate down next to the sink but as he was about to turn around to leave, he realized that he had to wash the plate.He grabbed the plate and started to wash it with soap. He did the washing quickly because he did not want to waste time, he was already tired. He was done washing the plate so he kept it back and went out of the kitchen. He then went to the living room where his mother was. He noticed that her blanket was falling off so he went to her and adjusted the blanket well on her. After that he went back upstairs and into his room.He went to take a shower to freshen up. When he finish
Derick started to focus on Celia, he was not expecting her to say that and he was not sure why she said it. “Well if we are going now, why don’t I give him something to remember so whenever he thinks of snitching, he will think twice.” One of the boys said. And as he said that, he punched Derick so hard that he fell to the ground with also the stuffs he bought. The rest of the group started to laugh except Celia. Derick was furious, all he could hear was their laughter and it made him even angrier. He tired as much as he could to control himself but it was just too much. They group started to enter the car while still laughing. Derick turned towards them and placed his hand on his face, his cheek were swollen and a bit of blood was in his mouth. He managed to control his anger because if he did something now, the outcome will be very bad and he will not know how to go home to his mother. They drove off and Derick slowly stood up, he cleaned his mouth and picked up his stuf
“I am sure it is not what you are thinking about.” Derick said. “You know there is no way in this world that you will go to the dance with Celia as a date.” John said. Derick was surprised that John got what he was thinking about, “I know it is not possible, but wouldn’t it be something if I actually go to the dance with her.” “Yeah, it will be something, it could even be enough for me to come to the dance. But for your own sake, don’t think too much about something like that.” John reasoned with him. “Yeah you are right” Derick agreed with him. “That is good.” The bell rang for the next period and the both of them went immediately for the next class. School was over and everyone rushed home to start preparing for the dance on Friday. Derick and john did not plan to go so there was no preparation for them. The both of them got on their bikes and started to ride home, first as usual, it was John who got home first, they said their goodbye and Derick went on
After he finished everything, he went downstairs to check up on his mother. He went straight to her room. When he got there he noticed that her door was open and the lights were on. He looked into the room and saw his mother sitting in front of a mirror applying little makeup.He was surprised with what he saw, “Good morning mom.” He walked into the room.His mother turned back, “Oh, good morning Derick, hope you slept well?” She asked.“I did,” he replied. “Are you going out anywhere?” He asked.“Not really, I was just trying see how I would look with some make up on, it has been a while.” She replied.He smiled, “Alright mom. I will be heading to school.”“Have you had breakfast?” She asked before he could leave the room.“I will get something to eat at school, I should be going to school now.”“Where are you rushing to, I am sure school today won’t be too serious because of the dance tomorrow.” She said.“Well you can never be too sure.” He said. “See you when I get back mom.” He s
At that moment, everything was going well for Derick and he could not believe it. He was not bothered about his mother’s tears because he knew that they were tears of joy. “Thanks mom, for the suit and also the tie.” He said still looking at himself in the mirror. “There is no need to thank me for anything, I am just doing what I am meant to do.” She said. “And the girl, she is not coming over. I thought she would come and you guys would go from here.” She continued. “No mom, I already talked to her about it. We will meet at the dance.” He said. “But I really wanted to meet her.” “You will meet her eventually mom but not now.” He assured her. “Alright, if you say so. I want you to do something for me.” “What is it mom?” He asked curiously. “Make sure you enjoy every moment today at the dance.” She said. “I will mom.” He assured her. “Great.” “Alright, its time, I will be going now. I don’t want to keep her waiting.” He said. “Yes you are right, y
Dr. Edward walked into the lab and looked around but there was no one in the lab. Ben ran into the lab and stood at the entrance, he looked around and there was no sign of Celia, Derick or john. Ben was relieved and at the same time confused, he wondered where they must have gone to. “I am not surprised, your lab is really impressive.” Dr. Edward said as he continued to walk around the lab. Ben relaxed so that he would not seem suspicious, “So why did you want to see my lab anyway.” “Well you can say as a scientist I like to admire labs and yours is fine.” Dr. Edward answered. Dr. Edwards walked around the lab slowly and Ben wondered what he was up to, there was no sign of Celia and the others but he was not okay with the way Dr. Edward was moving around the lab. “So what now, do you have everything you need?” Ben said. “Seems like you really want me to leave your lab quickly.” “Yeah, like I said, my lab is very private and the plants here are very sensitive.”
Dr. Edward entered the house with the police and Ben closed the door. “So tell me, what brings you here?” Ben asked while they were in the living room. “You are smart enough to know why I am here so let us not play the ignorant card.” Dr. Edwards said. “I know about Daniel and the chemical he created.” Ben said. “And you should know that he is in hiding now, he is a fugitive.” “Well it is hard not to know from the news.” Ben said. “Going straight to the point, Daniel is not here if you think he is.” Dr. Edward started to walk around the living room, “I know he is not here.” “So why are here then if you know that.” “You two were close, I know the relationship you have with him. And I looked into the chemical that he created and found out that you helped him with it at some point.” Dr. Edward said. “Yes we started the chemical together. Since you have done your research, you should know the reason why we started the chemical. I stopped helping with the chemi
“You started to feel this way when you first saw Celia this morning.” Ben said. “Yeah so what does that mean?” Derick asked. Ben went over to another corner of the lab, “The chemical is still getting used to your body and is using your anger as a pathway to thrive.” Ben put some drop of blood in a small glass and place it under a microscope then looked through the lens of the microscope. “Wow, would you look at.” Ben said while looking through the microscope. “The chemical is more unstable than I thought, it doesn’t only want to thrive, it’s fighting to take full control.” Ben continued. “What do you mean?” Celia asked. “I mean, if not you were not good at controlling your anger, the chemical would have taken control of your body. It would turned you into a monster filled with rage, you will have no other emotions.” Ben replied. “All that is scary and all but you haven’t told us about the weakness you figured out.” Derick said. “Oh.” Ben removed his eyes fro
The three of them followed Ben. When they got to a door, Ben turned back, “Well I don’t like too many people in my lab so why don’t only Derick follow me in, you two can wait here.” Ben said to them. “You really don’t expect that to happen.” John said. “I mean, Derick is the most wanted person now. Dr. Edward, the government and Dr. Colvert wants him. And you want us to allow you to be alone with him while he is venerable.” “I don’t expect you to trust me, and yes I am fascinated with him and I need to do some research and hopefully I will find out what is wrong with him? Ben said. “Yeah we have no other choice john and Celia said that we can trust him so I guess it’s cool.” Derick said. “The only one who is willing and can possibly help us is him so why don’t you let him do that.” Celia added. “Well since you all would not listen then go ahead, if anything goes wrong remember and warned you.” John went to a chair and sat down. “Enter my lab but before you do wear thi
“I need you help uncle ben, it is really important.” Celia said “Come in quickly.” Ben said. Ben opened the door fully and Celia, John and Derick entered the house. They were now in the house, and the interior was even more impressive. There were few furnitures, almost everything in the house was white including the walls. The house was spotless, there was no sign of dirt anyway. Ben went to a corner and started removing his masks and goggles. “Remove your shoes there and washed your hands there at that sink.” Ben said to them. Derick saw the sink when he came in but he did not know why the sink was right there close to the front door. Celia went on to the sink, she washed her hands and clean it with the towel next to the sink. When she finished, Derick and John went on to wash their own hands. “I know you already know what is happening right now with my father, about the chemical he created.” Celia went to ben. “Of course I know, I am private not a caveman.” B
Celia finished her food and dropped her plate on the table in front of her. John and Derick were surprised with how fast she finished the food, they understood that she was really hungry. “While we wait for my father I think I know someone that we can go to, he could try to help us figure out what is wrong with you.” Celia said. “Who is he? And why are you only telling us now?” John asked. “He is a scientist, my godfather.” Celia replied. “So another scientist now, how many scientist will get involved? And who knows if he will be like your father or Dr. Edward.” “No, he is not like that. He is different. His goal is find cures for most human diseases. He is not driven by the any ambition or anything like that, if is genuinely good. He was my father’s student before, but now he works on his own privately.” Celia said. “So this scientist, you are sure he can help us?” Derick asked. “To be honest I am not fully sure, but he is a scientist with a brilliant mind so
As the water from the shower went down her body, the dirts on her body washed off. She felt calm and relaxed but she did not know why. She thought about what John said about her when she left the living room but the thought went away because she did not care about it. But she did not blame them for not trusting her, she understood why. She now understand everything that was going on, why her father is on the run and also about the chemical. But she still wanted to see her father, she wanted to talk to him so he can stop all these before things gets out of control or before he ends up killing someone. She knew that if she stay with Derick, eventually her father will come for him and she will meet him, because after all Derick is with his chemical. She finished with the shower, she saw a towel in the bathroom and used it to cover her body. She left the bathroom and went to get her clothes. Luckily for her, her clothes were not dirty because she was wearing th
Derick stood up from his chair, “Where is your kitchen?” He asked John. John did not understand why Derick asked where the kitchen was but he just replied, “It is right there.” John pointed at the kitchen. “Thanks.” Derick went to the kitchen leaving Celia and John alone in the living room. John and Celia looked at each other as they wondered why Derick went to the kitchen but as their eyes met they immediately removed their face from facing each other. Celia could tell that John did not like her but she did not care about that, she had never cared about what other people thought about her and definitely not now that she was going through a crises. And John did not like her because he never liked her behavior in school and with the prank she played on Derick confirmed it for him that she was not a good person. He still does not understand what Derick sees in her. They were still wondering why Derick went to the kitchen and then Derick came back to the living room holding a
“Well how do I put this, I bumped into Celia, I think she stole something from a store. I chased after her and protected her from some men trying to hurt her.” “That still doesn’t explain anything, what about your mother? Have you gone to the police?” John asked. “Sorry to interrupt.” Celia cut in. “You know the only reason I came here because you told me that you know something about my father.” She turned to Derick. “Seems like someone is really impatient here.” John said. “Why won’t I be, I have been on the run from the police for days now.” Celia replied. “All this won’t have happened if your father did not create the chemical in the first place.” John said. “You guys should relax.” Derick said. “I know we might be a little frustrated with everything that has been happening but we need to calm down.” Celia turned to David, “What does he mean by my father creating a chemical?” “Yeah, your father created a chemical that enhances the human abilities.
