LISTEN… I WANT TO TELL YOU SOMETHING IMPORTANT! IN FEAR THAT I MAY NOT HAVE MUCH TIME, SO PLEASE LISTEN TO WHAT I’M ABOUT TO TELL YOU…

“Mr. Axil!” Chelsea, my assistant shouted my name with thrill etched into her voice. “…We are on to something, Look!” Leaving my computer, I ran over towards the area she was excitedly pointing at.

“What is…” My eyes grew wide and my heart fluttered in my chest. Looking at the window, there was a six inch wide gaping black hole. “Whoa! I turned to Chelsea “We are on the verge of creating History!” I exclaimed, barely able to contain my excitement.

“Wait till Mr. Gin sees this, then he will have to keep us up and running!” She squealed. Nodding in response, I drew closer towards the hole, inspecting it further to see what it is that we’ve created.

“Get him on the phone… now!” I barked at her, filled with exhilaration. Without hesitation she skipped away. As I Investigated the hole, an odd gust of wind brushed against my hair, which carried the smell of rot. My nose bunched up at the smell, perplexed, I Backed up, knowing that there had to be a logical explanation. I sniffed the air, trying to determine where the exact smell was coming from. My head followed my nose towards Chelsea’s desk, a rotting banana was laid perfectly on top with a bunch of other junk littering her area. The wind I felt continued to blow softly against the top of my head, looking up, my suspensions decayed away, as I stared up at the air vent above me.

“Mr. Axil!…” Chelsea shouted as she came back into the room. “He will be here in the next six hours, right now he is in a meeting and has another lined up right after and won’t be able to come right away.” She said, a bit of disappointment crossing her features.

“Good, Good…” I said with a nod. “…Because this place is a pigsty. We need to get a cleaning crew immediately!” After calling to get the room cleaned, we went out to eat, trying to waste as much time as possible. The timing couldn’t have been more perfect, as we showed up at the exact same time as Mr. Gin. With a smile, we respectively greeted him.

“Mr. Gin, we’re glad you could make it.” I said happily, offering him my hand to shake, which he just stared at, not returning it at all. Forgetting he wasn’t much of a contact type of guy, I gestured towards the door. “If you’d please follow us this way, we will show you what we’ve done so far, I guarantee you will not be displeased.”

He gave us a small smirk that just seemed so unnatural. “I have high hopes Mr. Axil and miss Robertson.” He said in a scratchy voice. He was an odd guy but he was our boss. As long as he provided money for this research, it didn’t matter who he was. Making our way towards our little lab, we happily made our way to the back, stopping admits the room, we stared in awe at the new hole, which had grown six feet wide, covering nearly half of the window.

“I~Its grown!” Chelsea exclaimed.

“I can see that Chelsea.” I replied. “Sir, don’t …” I trailed off, studying the peculiar expression on Mr. Gin’s face. His Light brown eyes glimmered oddly, it was like he was a child in a candy store. It was an expression I never thought I’d ever get the chance to see, which both intrigued and frightened me.
