Experiments

Chapter 1 - The Lab

"Everyone ready for the field trip?" Mr. Joyce says, excitedly.

The whole class groans.

"Aw come on, it'll be fun! We get to see potions, and maybe even experiments done! You'll have fun, I promise" Mr. Joyce says smiling. "Alright everyone, get in a line and hop on the bus."

I stand in front of Dan, walking slow as ever. "Can you please hurry up?" I say annoyed. "Whatever." Dan groans teasingly. I clench my fist. The day has not been going good so far. First, I oversleep and had to rush to get to school. Then, I missed the bus and had to practically supersonic run to school. Lastly, we had to do two tests I forgot to study for. The day has been the worst day I had all this year, which is a surprise. We finally managed to get on the bus and the bus starts moving. I sit next to my friend, Lily.

"So, how do you feel about going to a 'professional' science lab where they electric people and stuff?" Lily says sarcastically.

"Sounds boring. I would rather go to a aquarium." I say, leaning against the window. I see trees and buildings passing me.

"Even if they have sharks?" Lily makes a hey-I'm-a-shark face at me. I laugh.

"Hey, that'll be less scarier then seeing these old men in a science lab coat and big goggles on their face." "That is true.." Lily agrees. The bus is loud as usual, and I always hear boys talking about their football games or how they play video games until 4AM. In the back of the bus, the kids are trying to make the cars honk at us, because they think it's so hilarious. Even though it's stupid.

~2 Hours Later~

"Alright! We are here ladies and gentlemen!" I bolt up because I just took a nap. Was it 1 hour? 30 minutes? Either way, it doesn't matter. I look out the window to see a huge building. Bigger then our mall in our town, and that's really saying something. Everyone is getting off one by one off the bus and I follow Lily to our line. Everyone is talking, whispering, giggling, muffling.

"Quiet down class!" Mr. Joyce practically screams. We are always that one class that never shuts up. "Alright, we are going inside and don't touch absolutely anything! I'm looking at you, Tyler." Tyler laughs it off like it's a funny joke. "Anyway, we are heading inside now. Everyone stay quiet and like I said, don't touch anything unless told to. Let's go in!" I look at the front door to see two... police? Why are police here? That's odd.

We walk in and the cold air crawls on my skin. Burr. I should have brought my jacket. I look around. There are a lot of rooms. A lot. "Ok everyone, we'll first be looking into Room 234. Stay quiet and listen for instructions."

We walk inside and the room amazes me.
