Nightmare come to life

The elevator stopped and I looked into the dark lab. Pitch black. I couldn't see a thing. I took a few kitten steps forward and a bright light turned on causing me to fall backwards.

Ohhhh... A motion censored light. I thought to myself, feeling really dumbfounded. After I got up and dusted myself off, I started looking for the journal.

I had a relative idea of what it looked like though, I was never able to get a good glimpse at it. Red with a gold hand on it and a number in the middle. Can't be too hard to spot, that's quite unique.

I continue my search. There's so many papers and books I search and scan through as much as I can, going drawer by drawer, desk by desk, box by box.

Man... Great Uncle Ford really needs to organize his stuff better. I think, rolling my eyes as I move towards the last desk. It has to be here. If not Ford must have it on him.

I start at the bottom, pulling out the two boxes at the bottom. Inside one of them were a bunch of papers, inside the other was a bunch of test tubes with clear and colored liquid inside of them labeled 'test tubes : A, B, C, D' and 'Control'. I really wondered what that and was going to investigate but decided against it as it's better to focus on getting the journal before-

"What are you doing down here?!"

I gulped and slowly turned around to see my Great Uncle Stan. I was kind of relieved knowing that it wasn't Ford. If it was-

"Well?!?!" He asked. I heard the anger building up in his voice. I had to think of an excuse... and quick.

I was almost frozen. Come on mouth! Open! You have to say something!

"I- I um... I w-was... just..." it took me a good 5 seconds to say those words. My body started shaking and tensing up. Stan scoffed, "Stay here." He ordered in a very demanding voice. He was angry. Furious in fact.

He turned around and started leaving, I knew what he was about to do. I ran up and grabbed his arm, the tears starting forming and desperation started settling in.

"N-No! Please! Don't tell F-Ford! He'll h-hurt m-me!" I begged him. He grabbed my hair and threw me onto the floor. "You know the rules, kid." He said with a softer tone, but still deep and intimidating. Almost as if he felt... bad.

I stayed on the ground shaking, too afraid to even think. None of us have ever been down here so, what could the punishment be? I don't know. I don't want to know.

Ford is so unpredictable, Stan can be sometimes but not nearly at the same level. The terror was rushing through me. It was like I just got struck by lightning.

I slowly made my way up and turned my head, Stan was gone. No doubt getting Ford. I couldn't waste time anymore. I couldn't go back upstairs because then I'd get in more trouble for leaving when Stan told me to stay. But I can't just wait here the stress and anticipation alone would kill me.

My first instinct was to hide, there's was no other option. I had to hide. My head spun in every direction, searching and scanning for a place to hide, until my eyes met the last box I forgot to check.

I quick got under the desk and put the two boxes in front of me, to conceal me. A few seconds later I decided to look through the final box.

In the tight compact space I was in, I reached over and pulled out 5 papers from the box and start looking them over. The first 2 papers I looked through just had math equations on it and some sort of blueprints for a giant triangle shaped machine... but the last two papers...
