“Are you ready?” he asked her, he did not watch the eager child beside him but instead his eyes were on the project they had spent so long on.

“Of course, I am. We’ve put in too much work to give up now.” She answered, her gaze on his hands. To think that in only a matter of moments…

“Glasses on.” He reminded her, pulling his own goggles over his eyes.

“Five.

                Four.

                                Three.

                                                Two.

                                                                One.”

The room glowed with orange and yellow light.

Eight gleaming red eyes blinked before them.

“Greetings, Gwendolyn.” She said, smile wide.

He said nothing, quietly sobbing with a smile. It was amazing to see all his work pay off.
