The lab was awash in the muted glow of monitors, a sanctuary for Overhaul as he meticulously honed his latest experiment. Vials clinked softly, and the sharp scent of chemicals filled the air. He leaned in closer to examine the data when, without warning, an unexpected explosion erupted from the workbench, sending shards of glass scattering like dangerous confetti.
Smoke billowed into the air, obscuring his vision and setting off the alarm system. Overhaul’s heart raced, not from fear, but from fury as he coughed against the acrid fumes. “Get out!” he barked, his voice slicing through the chaos. “Now!”
As his ‘children’ scrambled for the exit, he remained rooted in place, assessing the damage with cold, calculating eyes. “This was a careless mistake,” he muttered, already formulating a plan to rectify the failure. “I will not let this setback define my work.” With renewed determination, he prepared to dive back into the fray, ready to reclaim control over his chaotic lab.
