I hate it here. Space. Looks pretty from Earth, but it's big and it's boring and I can't stand being here. Especially with that Space Sphere. Him, I'm just tired of. I turned off my hearing system a year ago. I got here years and years ago (absolutely ages!), and everything is becoming sickening. And with every passing day, I wish more and more that I could take everything back. I let the power go to my head. I'm not a moron, not in the slightest, but I realise that I can't deal with power. Or maybe it was GLaDOS's body. Yeah, more likely. She's a bit of a nut-job, if you think about it. Totally loony. Killed tons of scientists with her deadly neurotoxin that she loves so much, put Chell through all that testing. I put Chell through testing too, of course. I also caused GLaDOS to wake up when trying to help Chell escape. Was that where it went wrong? Maybe.
I can't help but feel everything is my fault. When I first got here, I blamed GLaDOS and Chell, and the corrupted cores they put on me too. But really, it was me. I get that. As mentioned prior, not a moron.
But today I turned my hearing system back on, and the Space Sphere said something interest, and not to do with space. I was shocked, totally shocked. How long had he been saying stuff other than "I'm in space!"? Had I missed out on much? Ah well, got this interesting thing. And it's not only interesting, but surprisingly helpful. Let's just say that Earth shouldn't be missing me for too much longer.
I wonder if it's changed since I was there. Not that a saw much of it, just the part of it within Aperture Laboratories. Once Wheatley Laboratories but... we all know how that ended. Has GLaDOS changed? Probably not. Not any more since the potato incident, anyway. I'm guessing she's still her strange self, obsessed with neurotoxin and armed with a dry humour. I wouldn't be surprised.
As for Chell, I doubt I'll get to see her again. And even if I did, she'd likely shun me. Who would forgive someone that tried to kill them with mashy spike plates? I certainly wouldn't. I doubt Chell would be any more forgiving than me. Then again, she became pretty good pals with GLaDOS while she was PotatOS, so I'll try and hope for the best.
Rather short, I know, but I hope you enjoyed it. This was more of a prologue / introduction, so the upcoming chapters will be longer. Please review and/or follow!
