Everything around me went slow motion. Like each step of the man was like a huge giant step, vibrating throughout the room. And when the man stood still, he then gave a warm smile. I didn't even know he smiles. He always appears to be serious. But his smile was so impressing. And it's like it's a once in a lifetime chance to capture it.

"OMG!!!It's Doctor Allan Dumnah!!!" a voice from one of my classmates bolted pointing a finger on him.

And so his smiled quickly faded."Yes that is my name. I am here to first introduce myself here..." his voice sounded so serious.

"Well I guess all of us here already know you," Mr. Arcenaux made a side comment as he leaned near to him and chuckled. But Dr. Dumnah just paused without any regard movement or gesture to what he said, his face still faced to us so stern and straight and you couldn't even read anything from it, and continued.

"I am the the scientist emeritus. I used to be the principal scientist of Ruoxian Science University of Colorado but now a visiting professor there. I am here to tell you that I will be your judge for your school's science fair. I did accepted the offer, glady..." Although he doesn't look glad by the look at his face. "and...decided whoever wins this will get the chance to have a tour with me at the campus. All payments for travelling and stay, if ever, is free."

Beads of sweat dripping from my head. My world went spinning so fast. Then slowed, making everything like in slow motion. I guess my mind went blank. Until I heard screams and clashing voices as many from the class went crazy and Zeke approached to me.

"Luis. Luis. Luis?" his hands on my shoulders shaking me.

"Huh? Huh?"

"Luis, are you okay man?"

My view went clear and everything went back to normal again.

"Man, are you fainting already?" Zeke was freaking out.

"No dude! I'm okay. I'm okay." Just when I realized that class is over. Ms. Hamilton was fixing her bag as she's going to leave. Mr. Arcenaux has already left and so also has Dr. Dumnah.

"Gosh I can't believe this, dude. Dr. Dumnah?! Actually going to be our judge?! That is way freaaakin awesome!" he squirked loud.

"That would still sound an understatement for me," I snorted. "So what had just happened then?"

"Wait, weren't you listening?"

"My mind just went blank."

"Well right after that he ended and Mr. Arcenaux showed us the syllabus mechanics on the board and yeah, left. You know what dude, I think you needed fresh air and food. Cafeteria?" he really looked concern.

"Yeah dude. Cafeteria," I tried to smirk a smile and so he tapped my back. This was like what happened to me during the tragic moment car crash before. Probably due to strong emotions and an enormous shockness struck me. Well, having Mr. Dumnah just be infront of us speaking was something that could really cause a huge concussion. I mean, he's the scientist professor known all throughout the country and most others across the world for his noble discoveries through his researches and studies. He was the one who actually discovered the real incidents behind Albert Einsteins almost finished patent of the time machine, Newton's attempt to discover anti-gravity (the things I've mentioned earlier, yeah), Galileo Galilei's hidden discoveries of slow-mo capturing gears, Blaise Pascal's diminishing machine, and many many more! See how cool he is? He also invented some things - but really astonishing ones - like trackers for natural disasters, language translator apparatus for singing birds, and communicating devices for fish and other sea creatures! So cooool. He's my favorite.
