Mahi, who had finished her work, placed the tome on Caleb's desk, and went outside.
Mahi, making sure there was nothing in a two-meter radius, opened a portal, and then input 'EARTH 87TH CENTURY EARTH KINGDOM'.
She confirmed it, and a loud 'BEEEEP' sound could be heard; then a large, spontaneous explosion occurred, and there was Mahi, standing in a black pit of dead grass, with smoke rising form her ears and mouth. She was entirely tarnished, black with cinders, and coughed black smoke.

Caleb rolled up his left sleeve and looked at his sun deprived skin. A scalpel came to his other hand. He gently placed it on the top of his arm and lit the blade gracefully cut a thin gash into the skin. Blood pooled at the top of the cut. He brushed it away and slipped his fingers under his the wound and began to pull his skin down his arm. Caleb made no noise, not even a grunt during this. He looked at the putrid flesh that was hidden below. He took the scalpel and cut into the discolored flesh and a redish black liquid began to come out and mix with the blood.
"Nothing is stopping this decay..." Caleb growled, his voice laced with defeat. He took the small satchel on the table next to him and put it onto the wound. He pulled his skin back over and took out the needle and thread he had been using earlier out. Caleb plunged the needle into his skin and sowed the wound shut.
The teacher looked down to his chest. He unbuttoned his shirt. His blackened and rotting skin began to sting when it touched the air. He let out a displeased grunt of pain. He took a blood red potion off of the table and poured it onto the dying skin. Caleb buttoned back up his shirt back up and got back on his feet. The smell of death filled the air as it came from Caleb. He walked over to a yew bookshelf and took a bag of plum flowers and cherry blossoms and took out a handful of the dried flowers rubbed them on his clothes. He put back on his robes and put the bag into a the robes. He snuffed the candles with his slender fingers and he walked back into the day.

Mahi was attempting to clean off her skirt and sweater, but to no avail.
Her throat hurt, as if she had been imploded from the inside; she began looking around desperately for drinking water, still burnt and coated with black cinders.

Caleb began to walk back to the school grounds, hopefully undetected. He slithered throughout them, get closer to the library were he spent many hours in.

A small girl-- about 7 years old-- came through a portal. She had white hair that was a spectrum of colors in the sun, orange eyes, and a small build. She was wearing a red plaid scarf and skirt [with matching socks] with black shorts under her skirt, and a cream-colored sweater. She had a large Venus flytrap on each temple.
She looked down at Mahi on the ground.
"Aunt Mahi?"
Mahi raised a hand up feebly.
"Ch...Chry...seis. Water... please."
Mahi felt a glass in her hand, but when she drank it, it was blood.
"C-Chryseis!"
"It was an accident!! Really! I'm sorry...!"
[[At least she didn't vomit up frogs this time.]]

((Lol, has she accidentally killed the first born?))
Caleb went into the massive library, looking around, he went into the private study that was made for the teachers of the school, if they actually used it. Caleb felt that he belonged in solitude, it was quiet, very little distractions, it was all very soothing to him. He began to search throughout all of the books in the dusty room.

[[LOL. On occasion, when she is thrown into a random world to kill all of its inhabitants.]]
Chryseis went to a nearby river andd got some water.
She looked up, and she had accidentally turned it to blood..
"Uh-oh."
she turned around, and wailed.
"AUNT MAAAAHIIIII! I made a mistake!"
[[Lol, I love Chryseis. She's so cute xD]]

((Is there some sort of back story for your characters that I missing?))
The table Caleb sat at had about 23 huge books on it. He was holding the 24th. Caleb began to pour throughout all of the books, but all led him in the same direction. Caleb was a fool such a long time ago, why tend when the consequences are much worse that death. He should have known it was just a myth, but, Caleb's young mind strived to create what was impossible. He threw the book across the room. Why was he even trying? This questioned puzzled the alchemist.

[[The backstory of the Montblanc family is immense, don't feel bad. Explanation attempt #1: Chryseis is a member of the time government, along with the others. The time govenrment [which is inhabited by the 'old women with shotguns'] all want Chryseis dead, and the only thing keeping her out of a woodchipper is her cuteness. Chryseis spews out the egyptian plagues on a roulette, at any given time. Her role is to be thrown into some random world, and her mistakes lead to that world dying.]] Chryseis paused. "I made the river full of blood." " What?!" Chryseis paused, and then her eyes grew wide. "Uh... uh..." "What now?" Chryseis pointed at Mahi's legs. Mahi looked and saw huge boils developing. "CHRRRRYYYYYSEIIIIS!""I'm sorry!" [[ Poor Mahi.]]

((So would the Time Government be considered to be "negative" force in the universe?))
Caleb began to fall asleep, to tired to care that he was in the library. He needed a good nap as from the pandemonium of the school.

[[They're not negative in the sense that it reaches out to other things, just internally corrupted. Samael and Bifrost [two of the three primordial deities of the omniverse] are the evil forces of the omniverse.
The TG also handles and judges the souls of the dead [like Mahi, she's a judge], and decides what circle of Hell they go into.]]
Mahi had lopped of her legs to get rid of the boils, and her legs regrew good as new.
Chryseis felt a dark force possessing her, and the sky turned black.
Mahi wailed.
"Ch-Chryseis!"
[[Number seven, not nine.]]

((Random fact:Liquor was first made by alchemists. After, they made mixed drinks. XD))
***
Caleb worked at his yew table in domain. Buried in a book, Caleb kept reading about this "elixir of life". A sudden creak came from the door. "I am not treating anyone today, come back tomorrow if you are not dead then." But, the person stayed. Caleb turned around. "Leave you twit." The young man responded with a shriek and showed his overgrown canines. Caleb was studded and confused. "What....is this?" The young man rushed at him, growling. Caleb took a nearby scalpel and stabbed the boy in the jugular, sending blood everywhere. The boy collapsed to the ground. He walked out of the his domain and saw the town new "Plague". Caleb went back in and took a couple more tools of malice.***

[[LOL. that's the best thing ever.]]
Chryseis didn't cause a barrage of fiery hail to come down upon the school campus, but she felt a familiar feeling in the back of her throat.
She coughed, and hacked, and out of her mouth came a living frog.
And then another.
In about five minutes, Chryseis was almost covered in a pile of frogs.
[['It must be dissected! FOR SCIENCE!']]

14 years later, when he was 34, Caleb was known widely by now. Not for himself being a Plague Doctor nor as a professional alchemy, but just as a wandering traveler..
But Caleb had a reason for traveling.
Caleb laughed at his own genius in his apothecary once again. "I...finally obtained it!" He broke into a mad fit of psychotic laughing. He held up the small vial, filled with a blood red liquid, it was his, he created it after 13 tiring years. But...What would he do with it now? If he did use it on himself, he would have to remember this. He got out an old tome of his, and turned to some of the last pages of the book. And he began to write down his genius. Caleb downed the vial. Caleb threw the vial to the ground, his knees gave out and fell to them. He began to have violent convulsions. A great pain developed in his chest. He let out a cry of pain before he collapsed to the cobblestone below.

Chryseis and Mahi were both covered in frogs.
Mahi wailed.
"I'm gonna be poisoned! Aaaaaagh!"
[[Mahi: I guess it must be hard for mortals to realize the depths of immortality, huh?]]
