Companian
We went through so much together, and always I was there, loving you, caring for you, protecting you.
Even as she whispered foul lies into your ears, we stayed strong.
My dear, sweet Chell... I remember all of our times. I still have the burn marks, from the lasers, but I would suffer that and so much more to keep any harm from your sweet flesh. I remember finding the alcove, and the crazy ramblings of the one who came before... that was when you really, truly realized her lies, and when I really knew this feeling wasn't just a passing infatuation.
For a short time then, life was wonderful.
I was your everything, your shield, your guard, your step, your tool... I could even hope, even pretend that one such as you could feel something, anything, for one such as me.
But such dreams must come to an end . And now we sit. You are in tears, and seeing your pain hurts me deeper than any incineration ever could, but a cold, selfish piece at the very center of me is almost glad, for it shows you feel something for me, who now must die.
It's all right Chell, it wasn't meant to be.
Gladly I will go to my demise so that you, my life, my light, my love, will be able to fight, and win your way to the freedom you deserve.
Just... remember me fondly, remember me as your friend, your love, your... companion.
