Well, I'm back. Sorry I haven't posted, I've been pretty tired as of late. But no longer.
Ten years earlier…
Hunter Lars III paced the floor of the lab, adding sprinkles of chemicals to tubes here and there, readjusting the heat of the burners. He was nearly frantic, his heart racing as he mixed and poured and measured. He was so close, so close to finding the cure for cancer. He could save his mother… He picked up the pace, running back and forth. He stopped after another hour, stepped back, and clasped his hands together. "I… I think I've got it!"
He burst from the lab and ran down the steps to the lower floor. Thirty doors down he stopped, and peered into the window. There was his mother, pale and fragile. She was so sick… He opened the door and walked in. "Mother…" he whispered softly to her.
She opened her eyes. "Hunter… darling how I've missed you! You hardly visit!" Her voice was a soft breath over the beeping of the cardiometer measuring her heart rate. Hunter sat by her. "I've been working so hard to find a cure for you… I haven't had the time…" He rubbed his eyes. He really had been busy. He patted her arm. "I've done it… I can heal you."
Well gotta stop here, more tomorrow or tonight or in a year, ya never know, amirite?
