The Tale of the Mad Scientist: Part 2

Namjoon looks at his notes and twitches his fingers in annoyance. He sighs and gets up from his desk and paced around his room,

"What the hell am I going to do with this medicine—" Namjoon comes up with an idea and runs back to his desk and gets his notes and leaves his room. Once he enters the basement, he gets his test tube and supplies ready. He opens his medicine and fills it inside of the test tube, he looks at the tube curiously,

"Well, well, I got the perfect idea for you," he chuckles, "This will most definitely make me famous. I know it will." He says as he takes the rest of the liquid and adds it inside the tube. Knowing that the medicine he created will change his life forever.

The next morning, Amelia rushes to her classroom and sits at her desk, excited to show the class her project. But she looks at the chair next to her and wonders where Namjoon was. She became increasingly worried about him after his reaction to the assignment last night and hope everything was okay,

"I really hope he didn't go through with that bioweapon plan," she says with a worried tone, praying he didn't go through with it. Suddenly, Namjoon enters the classroom with a smile on his face and walks to his seat next to Amelia,

"Hey babe," Namjoon says as he kisses her cheek,

"Hey, how was the assignment?" Amelia asks.

"It went perfectly, I can't wait for you to see it," Namjoon says Amelia looks around,

"Where is it?" she asks.

"You'll see," Namjoon says, giving her a wink. Suddenly, the professor walks in,

"Hello, class! It's finally the day, please prepare your project and let's start this presentation," Professor Halloway says as he sits at his desk. The class gets their stuff together and Namjoon looks around the class, smiling sinisterly.

"Alright, who wants to start first?" the professor asks.

"I'll start," Namjoon says as he gets up and walks to the front. Amelia looks at him and smiles, but something in the back of her head was telling her something wasn't right. Namjoon puts his supplies down and looks around the class and gives a cocky smile,

"Ahem, well. It's been rough, but I did manage to come up with the perfect medicine for everyone to try out," Namjoon says. The professor gives Namjoon a suspicious look,

"Medicine. I didn't say anything about creating medicine—"

"Hush, I know but I wanted to do it anyways and I want people to try it out for themselves," Namjoon says. Amelia looks at Namjoon suspiciously,

"That's not how this works Mr. Kim—"

"Ladies and gentlemen, I wanted to create a perfect medicine that'll be great for your anxiety and depression. Something that'll give you so much life, that it'll be the perfect cure for your mental health and your life as a whole," he says. Amelia looks at Namjoon with a suspicious look,

"Ladies and gentlemen, I present to you. Anaproxlyn, the cure for anxiety and depression. I would like everyone to try it for themselves to see how they'll react to it—"

"Mr. Kim! Enough. This is not a testing lab. We're just doing a project!" the professor angrily says. Namjoon looks at the professor and smiles,

"Well, since you seem pretty fickle. How about you try it out first?"

"Preposterous. Leave this class immediately—"

"Come on, you seem very tense. You know you want it. Take the pill and you'll be completely safe. I promise," Namjoon says softly as he shows him the pill. Professor Halloway looks at him suspiciously and looks at the pill. He always suffered from bad anxiety and he's very curious about the pill,

"Well, if you insist," the professor says as he takes the pill and puts it in his mouth, and drinks some water.

"Well, are you happy? This better work, Mr. Kim." He speaks. Namjoon laughs and touches his shoulders,

"Oh, trust me, it will." He says as he sits back down in his seat and looks at Amelia. Amelia looks at Namjoon suspiciously,

"Joon, are you sure this will work?" she asks.

"I promise. It'll work and I will make sure this will work, for the both of us," Namjoon says as he holds her hand softly.

After all the presentations were over, Professor Halloway gets up and talks to the class, but he starts to act strange,

"Okay class, ahem, that's it for the presentation. I will..." the professor stops in his tracks when suddenly he becomes dizzy. The class looks at him in concern, hoping he's okay,

"Are you okay, Professor? Do you need me to call you a—"

"Amelia, it's part of the side effects. Look." Namjoon says, Amelia looks at the professor and her eyes widen, never has she seen the professor look so happy and free,

"Oh boy, I feel amazing. You guys leave, class is over. I'm going home so I can party! Whoo!" the professor says as he leaves the classroom, skipping on his way out. The class looks at each other in awe and looks at Namjoon and Amelia. The students all get up and run to them,

"Holy shit dude, what kind of medicine is that?" one student asks,

"I wanna try it!"

"Me too!" the students say as they crowd around the couple,

"Guys, hold on! I will make more when I get home, but only with a price. Say, $20 for a bottle of Anaproxlyn,"

"Namjoon—" Amelia says in horror.

"Don't worry Amelia, I got this," Namjoon says, "I will see you tomorrow, come by and I'll give it to you." He speaks. The students all leave the room in excitement, Amelia looks at Namjoon in horror,

"Namjoon, have you lost your fucking mind? This is illegal, you shouldn't be doing this!" Amelia says, but Namjoon touches her face softly and kisses her,

"Amelia, baby girl, don't worry. I got this. Trust me on this, I have it under control," he says as he leaves the classroom with a cocky smile on his face. Amelia looks down, wondering about the effects of the medicine, hoping it wouldn't harm anyone. Amelia always knew that Namjoon was the type of person who would do anything for fame and fortune, she becomes afraid of what he could potentially do with this medicine.
