Doctors Help, not Hurt! (Part 1)

'Benevolent' exited his residence rather loudly and stormed his way to the hospital. Ignoring the odd looks he got from civilians, he entered and went to his office. Opening drawers, he grabbed his favorite poisons and held them up to the light before putting them in his bag. 

"Ohhh, Benevolent! What a malevolent time we will have!"

------------------------------------------------

Benevolent sat behind the counter in his bakery, happily counting the remaining pastries. He looked up when he heard a civilian enter.

"Hello! Welcome to Benevolent's Bakery!"

"Hi! Could I possibly get a vanilla cupcake?"

"Of course! There aren't any on display right now, but I took some out of the oven not too long ago. Would you be okay with waiting for a moment?"

"Sure!"

Benevolent went into the kitchen, where the cupcakes were cooling. He thought they were cool enough and went to frost them.

'Do it.'

Benevolent stiffened a bit.

'What do you mean?'

'The poison in your bag, Benevolent! How unfortunate would it be if a civilian was found dead?'

'Oh, definitely not!'

'Fine, then.'

Benevolent suddenly stopped frosting the cupcake and began involuntarily moving towards his bag.

'No! I don't want to do this!'

Benevolent held up a vial labeled 'Batrachotoxin'. He smiled and moved back towards the cupcake, letting 2 drops fall on the frosting before continuing. He walked out of the kitchen to the civilian.

"I apologize for taking so long!"

"That's okay, are you alright though?"

"I feel perfectly fine. If something was wrong, I would have noticed since I am a doctor!"

"Oh, okay then. Have a nice day!"

The civilian left after paying for the cupcake, and Benevolent was released from the prison inside his mind.

'Why did you do that?!'

'Be honest! You always wanted to try that poison and see what it did.'

'But that doesn't mean I should try it on random civilians!'

Benevolent sighed and closed the bakery early. Contemplating what to do next, he walked around the city. If the poison in the cupcake was really Batrachotoxin, the civilian will most likely be dead in under an hour. Feeling distressed, Benevolent was biting his nails.

"I need to stop! This is not healthy."

Benevolent walked back to his residence to hide the bag of poisons and about 5 minutes after he left, Benevolent heard a scream. A female civilian stood above the civilian he had sold the cupcake to earlier. Benevolent tried his best to look shocked and rushed over. 

"Oh, dear! We better get him to my hospital!"

He picked him up and started running to the hospital, the female civilian following behind him as fast as she could. Before he knew it, Benevolent was in the hospital doing a full body analysis. He convinced the girl to stay in the lobby since he knew that the civilian was long dead. And although Benevolent killed a civilian, he did find out what Batrachotoxin does to the body.
