Chapter 1: The Science Assignment

I was awoken by the sound of my alarm clock. I always hated the thing, beeping away every five minutes when I try to turn it off. As I tried (without success) to turn off the cause of the infernal sounding noise at the foot of my bed, I got up and slammed my hand on it. I thought it was done, so I laid back down......only for it to start back up five minutes later. I got up and unplugged the machine. It finally stopped for today, unless Mom decided to plug it back in.

I should probably start with who I am. I am Doctor Vohr T. Tex, Vortex Master. I have parents, a school to go to, simple homework, and of course, many friends. I have a life outside the one I usually have. The life of Tex was usually filled with Dimension Hopping, Space travel, fighting evil overlords, etc. But this is the life of Dave. A normal boy who lives his life in the countryside. I like adventure and whatnot, but sometimes I just want to unwind.

Anyways, back to the story.

I got up and got dressed. I put on some Jeans and a Creeper Anatomy shirt, along with my fedora. I walked downstairs to find that I was the only one up. Well, it WAS 6:00 in the morning, of course they'd be asleep. I went as my usual business, taking out a carton of milk and a box of Cinnamon Toast Crunch. A healthy body equals a healthy mind, right? Well, I need a healthy mind for Middle school, so yeah. I ate my breakfast when Mom came downstairs.

"Hi honey!" she said in that cheerful tone that NO ONE could frown at. "How was your morning?"

"Meh, it was normal as usual." I replied. "You ask me that like I'm gonna go on a great adventure every morning."

"Well, considering that you travel the cosmos in your spare time, I don't see why you would be here eating cereal."

"Here I am, on my pastime, just going to school. Well, I will have all weekend to travel."

"Oh, right!" She exclaimed. "It's Friday, ain't it?"

"Right on the money! Now, I'd better pack up, or else I'm gonna be late!"

Realizing that I wasted an hour eating and talking, I rushed upstairs. It seemed that my brother had already left for school, because his bed was as empty as the void, and probably his stomach (he didn't eat breakfast, so I guess school breakfast for him will have to do.). I went and put my Planner and Folders into my bookbag, and rushed off to the bus.

"Goodbye, Dave!" I heard my mom say before I boarded the giant yellow rectangular prism.

The day was as normal. I went to homebase. Nothing typically happens there, just to take attendance, say the Pledge, and the Honor Code. My first period was Math, we had a test that I did pretty well on. Then we had English and World studies, we just watched movies for study. Afterwards, we went to lunch. It was then that I met up with Drew. He's an old friend of mine. His Agent name is Professor Nique, though I just call him Drew. He was NOT as subtle as I was in choice of clothes. He was wearing his long white lab coat with a red scarf. I was just stuck with a shirt that explains how a fictional enemy explodes! He sat down next to me.

"Hey Doc," he said. "So, how was your day?"

"Pretty well. I'm pretty sure I got an A on the math test."

"Oh, is that so? Well, anyways, how about we talk about other things?"

The next half hour was just us talking about Undertale, how Sans could potentially be Ness, me hating that theory because of the fragile credibility of Game Theory, and, before we knew it, we were back to class.

However, the normal day ended at the end of our only class we have together, Science. Our science teacher asked us to come up to his desk. We did so.

"Now then," he said calmly. "I have some extra credit for you two. Mr. Johnson asked you to study these." He held up two testing tubes full of some strange, purple, thick liquid. "You are the best at chemistry. I have little doubt that you can solve this."

"But, what exactly is it?" Drew asked.

"Well, I'm not too sure. It doesn't show up on the Periodic Table. What I'm questioning the most, however, is what this stuff does. I don't want it to be tested on my students, so I'm leaving it up to you. You will need to put your findings on a PowerPoint, and it is due Monday. Dismissed!"

As the class walked out of the classroom, I started to ponder about the strange liquid. Well, I guess I'll study it at home. The rest of the day was as usual. When we got on the bus to head home, Drew and I started talking again. Only this time, it was about the liquid.

"So," he said. "This is the stuff we need to devote out weekend to?"

"I guess so...but, what is it?"

"I don't know, but it smell familiar..." He took a whiff of the scent coming from the tube. His head immediately drew back. "WHOO, that is some nasty stuff right there!"

As he got off the bus, I started to wonder why this was so familiar. I had seen and smelled it too before, but when, and where? Then, I got off the bus, and walked home.

What does it mean?
