The Emotionless Genius

Third Person's POV :

Sa pinakang itaas na upuan kung saan hindi masyadong kita ng mga tao ay doon prenteng nakaupo ang pitong lalake. Na tila pinagmamasdan ang mga nangyayare sa ibaba.

Ang mga istudyanteng nagbubulungan, mga sponsors na pinagmamasdan ang kanilang napiling tustusan, at ang mga husgadong naghihintay na matapos na ang inilaang oras para sa pagsuwesyon ng kanilang mga ninanais sa bawat imbensyong inilalahad ng bawat scholars na nakapasa.

"A commoner... Interesting. All the other participants have a high-tech materials from different companies while that one particular person have nothing but a self proclaim materials."

"There's nothing wrong about that as long as he could make something useful."

"That's true..."

"That dude is too calm for a situation like this." Suwesyo ng isa sa pito.

"Yeah, and look his work is the smallest compare to the others." Obserba naman ng isa.

Kaya inilibot ng iba ang kanilang paningin at tama nga ang kanilang kasama. Tanging yun lamang ang pinakamaliit sa lahat ng gawa ng iba. Halos kasing laki lamang iyon ng kamay ng isang tao.

'That guy looks familiar... Have I seen him before somewhere?' One of them thought, looking at the person in station 10.

Somewhere at the stands below them some students are whispering and mumbling, speaking some of their judgements against each other.

"Do you think that guy could finish his work before the time is over" — Male Student 1

"I don't know, just thinking of it is kind of nerve-racking!" — Male Student 2

"He should just give up. Look at his materials, parang galing pa yan sa mga basura hahaha!" — Male Student 3

"Don't be like that! But.... I won't argue with that. His invention is kind of out from the junkyard." — Male Student 2

Ilan lang yan sa mga naririnig ng pito sa kinauupuan nila. Making some of them a little irritated from the comments while the others just did not mind it at all. Just watching what will be the result of the said topic person.

°°°°

Tatlong oras na ang nagugol sa mga saglit na iyon. Halos patapos na ang ibang kalahok habang ang iba naman ay tinitignan nalamang kung may kulang pa ba sa kani-kanilang imbensyon.

Isa-isang pinagmasdan ng pito ang bawat gumagawa sa ibaba, ang iba ay tapos na, ang iba naman ay tinitignan kung may kakulangan pa sa kanilang mga imbensyon.

Ngunit ang nag-iisang nakakuha ng kanilang atensyon ay ang natitirang gumagawa pa rin sa kanyang station.

Kalmado itong nagta-type sa holographic computer na hindi alintana ang nangyayare sa kanyang paligid at ang oras na patuloy lang sa paggalaw.

Makikita ang mga mapagtanong na tingin sa nakararami lalo na ang mga manonood. Mga bulungan ng bawat istudyante lalong lalo na ang mga pamilyang may iniisponsoran.

Tahimik lamang ang pito ng isa sa kanila ang magsalita.

"Sa tingin nyo sino kaya jan yung Kaiden?" Tanong ng isa.

"Sa tingin ko ung nasa station 1." Hula ng isa.

"Stupid. Hindi naman nakaayon yan sa station number nila." Suwesyo nito sa katabi.

"I'm just guessing alright." Sarkastiko nitong banggit.

Na kinailing ng iba niyang kaibigan, habang ang isa nilang kasama ay tahimik at matiim na pinagmamasdan ang natitirang gumagawang scholar.

Eloiase's POV :

Observing every participants, this one guy just gets my interest the most. Kind of funny really.

Each participants is something. The guy in station 1 is too confident in his own good. But his invention is something good enough, just not enough to satisfy me.

The guy in station 2 is quite a nerd. But his invention is not that bad. Quite good if i may say but i don't know if i could say the same thing once it's used.

The girl in station 3 looks like a spoiled brat. But her invention is helpful in some way, I guess? No comment furthermore.

The guy in station 4 his invention is interesting. Could get an A+ in projectiles, he have a brain at least.

The girl in station 5 have a reasonable invention. Smart i say. But not smart enough for me.

The girl in station 6 her invention is cool. Kind of gravitational.

The guy in station 7 is what i really am waiting to be tested. A power surge that could be used in anything but i guess if it used it might got explode.

The guy in station 8 is for traveling, boosters.

The guy in station 9 well kind of familiar guess inspired for multi tasking.

And the guy in station 10, I don't really know what it is, his still not done yet. It's too small, i couldn't see it clearly from here in my spot. Tsk!

So I look at the other stations too from Station 11 to 20, so far and so on all of them are done already and the only left one whose still not is Station 10.

This program is getting interesting as the year goes by. From the last time i was here to watch it's still the time where the twins are having their first year too.

Gotten occupied for a moment there, I glance at the timer and saw that in any minute by now the timer will go off.

What will you do now person in station 10?.... Your time is almost running up

Would you get eliminated? Impress me more... I'm looking forward at your invention, just what exactly are you doing...

I ask myself while narrowing my eyes, as i focus my eyesight at the holographic computer his been using at the past three hours.

Making my eyes to go widen for a second before a small visible smirk shows up from my lips.

Programming.... What are you thinking to do such thing, that's no ordinary coding. You must be have some surprises up your sleeves.

As I observe more, I saw some devices attachment from his invention and some small device.

I narrowed my eyes even more, not really knowing what is happening. As I piece by piece each things I saw. While edging at my seat to get a clear sight.

Programming.

Devices..

Different coding...

That's when it comes to me. Making my eyes give a slight glint before it gets back to normal again without me knowing.

Self-made system, programming his own codes and system at his invention.

What a smart move, especially at a program like this but also reckless.

Interesting really.... What a dangerous move indeed.
