Chapter 3: THE DAY IT ALL FELL INTO PLACE
It has been a month when we discovered that our project work, but we now couldn't do it at the dorm. We were all sitting at the sitting room since I and Sophia called a meeting.
"We are to discuss that we ask for a laboratory to continue the experiment, the dorm is to small to continue." Sophia said
"We agree." Max and Macy said
"But, our project wil be taken by the school and if humans are able to enter and come back, the school will take all the glory." Quinn said
I looked at all of them and looked at Caleb who nodded.
"I think they already have the idea of taking it." I said
"Apparently we were being spied on the whole time and today our class will be asked if we still have an idea and if we don't tell them ,they will threaten us." I said.
Caleb was hacking into the computers and erasing and recreating other voice records from ours. We all went to class and everything was normal until Mrs. Jane asked us in the evening.
"So, do you have an idea for your exams?" she asked
We all looked at each other and decided then and there not to tell her. Viola stood up from her seat.
"We want to create and AI able to hack into anything." Viola said
"Ohh, how...lovely, so how is the progress?" she asked
"Caleb is creating the code while Kelly and Layla create the hardware." I said
The bell rang and we dashed out of there to the dorms. Two days later, we were called to the auditorium. It was a Saturday that day.
"We have gather you all here to inform you about your upcoming exams." the principal said " For any students needing the assistance of the school's laboratory, book now." she said.
Immediately I raised my hands, trying to figure out why the school will allow this since the laboratory was off limits immediately the school ends. I had to get to the bottom of this mystery.
"Yes, Nathan." she said
"I request to access to the labs whenever needed after school." I said
The principal looked at me with eyes that looked like they were scanning me.
"Sure, but on the condition that you propose your idea." she said
Everyone saw that coming, I knew I shouldn't, but I didn't have a choice. I was about to raise my hand when I saw a teacher's hand instead.
"Miss Joan, if it is possible, why not let them use the laboratory that is in the dormitory." she said
The principal sighed. " We once has a case like all of yours last year, quite a scandal and we decided to build a laboratory bigger than the one in school with more privacy requested by your parents." she said
Everyone became quiet since they didn't know that there was a laboratory of that size under the own beds. We agreed with her and were directed to where they were and how to access by our dorm patron. The moment we entered I heard ohh and ahh from my fellow dormates but I tried looking for cameras, but I couldn't see any and decided to leave it. Who knew that the principal didn't care about privacy here completely.
We immediately went back to work and after some few days of construction on the labs, we were finally able to build it in the size of a big and small animal.
"So, how do we test living organisms when the school does not allow pets?" Summer asked.
"I certainly don't know." Joshua said
"What if we sneak them in and if they survive we sneak them out." Max said grinning like he hadn't had fun in a long time
"How? Unless someone is able to convince their parents to bring, let's say a mouse and a cat." Jake asked
"Leave all of that to me." Max said.
We didn't know what he meant by that, but we trusted him and true to his word we saw him bring a cute mouse and a small feline to the laboratory.
"How did you get them?" Sophia asked with glee in her eyes.
"That's a secret, so let's start the proces shall we?" he asked
We all waited in anticipation when I pulled down the lever, suddenly sparks of electricity went flying into the room and I noticed the didn't hit the ground, but instead hit spots and I saw cameras.
I should have looked deeper." I thought.
Again a small dot appeared and this time started growing in size until it covered the shape of the machines. Quinn and Viola were the one who were holding the animals so I saw Viola and Quinn throw them in gently one at a time. First it was the mouse. We saw it crawling out of the second portal and it looked like it was fighting it way out and something was dragging it back then the cat ran and chased the mouse but that was a mistake that should have never happened.
The cat held on to the mice while it was being dragged making them both enter the portal. We were in silence when we suddenly saw feet coming out the first portal and out of nowhere a cat-like human-beast came out with the mice in its mouth. We were flabbergasted to the point we saw Layla faint then the beast started changing back to its original form as a normal cat.
"What the hell was that?" I asked
No one could response and then it hit me.
"That is why the object was deformed, it was trying to take human shape, but it is impossible." I said the realization that instead of a portal, we created a dimensional portal.
"We have to hand this over." Kelly said
"For what, we risk something this amazing to give away and they take the credit?" Max asked
"Ok, Let's do like this, we create the machine to fit the size of a human which would take until the day of exams which is approximately 3 weeks from now. we will put it on and put the cat again in the portal but this time instead of it going into the second portal it will go into the first as to not raise suspisions. Is that ok with you all." Quinn said
We all agreed and started creating the machines that will change our lives forever.
