I grabbed the beaker and gulped down the liquid as Eli looked on with an excited grin on his face. After drinking all the liquid, I gazed at Eli, then began to cough and gag as I gasped for air. 

“It’s working, it’s working,” Eli squealed like a two year old as he pointed to my hand that held the beaker.

That day changed my life forever! 

Hi, my name is Michael.

As we were heading out of Math class, my best friend Eli and I stopped to look at the Science Fair poster, the grand prize was $5000. 

“Hey, Eli, are you ready to beat Daria this year in the Science Fair?” 

“Boy, am I ever! She killed it the last three years in a row! We have to get something that would make even Daria’s head spin!”

“And we will finally have gloating rights for a whole year!”

“Talking about the devil herself,” Eli tilted his head towards the science lab.

I watched as Daria walked over to us with a smirk on her face. 

“Hey boys, are you ready to lose again this year?”

I glanced over at Eli, whose fists were clenched.
