Abstract
My story is one about the dangers of mankind in its relentless pursuit of knowledge and asks questions regarding how much is one willing to sacrifice all for the sake of being superior to those around him, and rising above what society expected one to stay as or become. This short story of my own creation was made through my own effort and tempered by the criticism of those around me, truly befitting of a story that examines the nature of knowledge and what we are willing to do in order to grasp it.

Comments
I hope that this story can make people think as well as be entertained as much as I enjoyed writing and revising it. The project might not be perfect, but I am proud that I strengthened my will so much in order to finish it. And to finalize, my advisor, Shana Youngdahl, told me in an email that she would be my sponsor as per an email she sent me.
Thank you for your time and enjoy my writing as best you can~
