Finally! You got the job as a newly hited scientist at a very prestigious science lab and research facility. This was supposed to be your dream, the very thing you looked forward to, until it wasn't.

You went to the lab for your first day, but were quickly stopped by administrators, saying that you were going to be assigned a "mentor" of sorts to shadow for your training. This would've been fine, but because all the other scientists were busy with interns, you got the amazing privilege to get partnered up with Max, the leading head scientist of the facility. Cocky, confident, and sarcastic, he studied you carefully with an arrogant smirk.

"Fresh meat? Who's this poor, unexpecting soul here?" He snorts.
