Chapter 1 how it happened
It was a dull day in Washington D.C. Adults were at there jobs, most kids were at school, and, as usual, Scifo-Tech labs was testing there experiments. I walked through X. I knew I wasn't supposed to be there but I had gotten lost trying to find the exit. Scifo-Tech is a big place. I was sweating like a pig. I knew that if someone found me in hallway X without ID I would be permanently banned from the labs. That would be bad considering that both my parent work here and it's were I come after school. I had the day off from school. I was coming to get my homework, which I had left there the day before. My dad got a new office and I had done my homework in it and accidentally left it there. Yesterday someone showed me the way there, but today I tried to find it on my own. Now I'm in hallway X and if I get caught I'll be banned and my parents will filet me alive. Suddenly I heard someone yell "No!!" It was an old raspy voice and I followed it to a door. I peered inside. It was Doctor Magonka and his assistant Jok.
"We will test it now" said Magonka
"No we can't. It is too dangerous." Jok replied firmly
Bang, Doctor Magonka hit Jok with the back of his gun. He fell to the floor. "Holy," I said softly.
"What was that" Magonka said "Who's there." He started to shoot in my direction. A bullet hit my hand. I almost passed out. It hurt so badly. Somehow though I didn't scream but it took about a minute of biting my tongue to realize that I was bleeding. I ripped a strip of my shirt and wrapped the wound. Soon I heard Doctor Magonka saying "Soon I will be immortal. Switch one on. Switch two on. Switch three on." EEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO. The alarm sounded. The machines were going to explode. I started to run away from the machines. BANG. The machines exploded. I was pinned to the wall from the impact. There was green gas everywhere. My cloth fell off but the wound wasn't bleeding. I looked to my right so I could see the wound but then I saw that my hand wasn't there. I blacked out.
