I have now totally regretted on not accepting Yu kai's offer of him to accompany me to school previously...
The equipment was all set and ready to go, John just had to push a button and the experiment would commence. Nervousness and excitement came all over him, would the experiment work? did he make an error somewhere along its construction? will he discover something new? questions and doubts plagued John's mind for one last time before the great moment. John decisively pushed down the button. The electric motor started working, the gears started turning, liquid went through its pipes, the machine became alive. Everything was working well, almost too perfect to be true, so John started worrying, everything was going too well, if his years on the lab taught him something was that if everything appeared to be going perfectly, it meant that something was going horribly wrong, and it was just waiting to flare up and explode in his face. Something was indeed wrong, John just didn't know at the moment, he searched all over the machine to spot the flaw, and after about a minute of looking, he found the place were everything was going to fail, a vent wrongly got open the moment the machine started running, and it urgently needed closing, or all the Johnons would go away. The problem was that the vent shutter was deformed and John had to do something quick, and in a moment of stupidity and hunger for success, he used his own body to close the gap, he thought he had the basics of the Johnons figured out, they wouldn't go through his body, and as this part of the machine didn't have anything harmful to his body, he was confident that his makeshift fix would work well. As John was thinking this, the particle tank valve got open and the Johnons started flowing through the machine, John started to feel a numbness in his body, slowly spreading until all his body was numb, then he started to loose sensation all over his body, his senses were slowly shutting down, the soft purring of his equipment was now silent, he couldn't feel the vibrations that the machine was provoking, he didn't smell, nothing, at this point John fell over unable to control his body, everything going black, like he was disconnected from his body. After a time that seemed an eternity to him passed, everything started to go back to normal, the slightly damp air around him, the metallic smell of the machine, the soft and relaxing purring it made, the cold feeling of the ceramic tiles under him, a voice called him from afar, so far away, he thought it was a mile away,
"I know!" exclaimed FTL.
With an extremely pained expression, he broke the stick, having it send immense waves in the void around the school alerting all the elder level staff and the powerhouses in charge of protecting the school.
'YE—'
"Thank you" he hugs me tight. But as he goes to let go I pull him in to another hug. "You okay?"
"Relax! Risa, I haven't introduced this guy, This is General Wilson... "
After an hour and a half.
Once Kang Min started preparing to leave he heard a ding inside his was heard.
"Oh my baby! Josh, are you okay?" A woman suddenly came to hug the young boy. Apparently, she seemed to be his mother.
"So do you have someone in mind?" Aidan continued to be calm as usual.
"Oh. I think you know a dozen of synonyms for brainless."
