Chapter 2: Chell's First Escape Plan: Narrator
Sorry the last chapter was kind of an introduction so it was kind of short, but future chapters will be longer! In this chapter I introduce a friendly turret named Bob but besides that I don't own any characters they all belong to Valve, hope you enjoy!
Chell fell to the ground, her leg in an extreme amount of pain. She remembered how the turrets had been built to shoot bullets out at an alarmingly fast rate. She was about to blackout when her leg stopped hurting and went numb.
"There we go, all fixed. Now you shouldn't walk for a while. Oh, I'm B.O.B. or Best Of Bob's, although that's what all of the turrets are named. I'm B.O.B. No. 1,234,974,613.5, poor W.O.B., he was made in half, personally burned by scientists." B.O.B. babbled.
"Well hello, do you know how we can get out of here?" Chell asked.
"Of course I do, here's a map." (I'm just going to call him Bob because I'm lazy, :-p) Bob said displaying a huge map on a nearby wall.
Chell couldn't comprehend every single passageway there was but she did see a way out 10 tests away from them.
"There! We can escape there, there's a window!" Chell exclaimed loudly.
"Shhhh! Master GLaDOS might…." Bob started.
"I might what? Rip your head off? Good idea, but I want to see our "Test Subject" suffer, so I'll just take you instead!" GLaDOS laughed as she sucked Bob down a tube.
"Bob!" Chell yelled after him.
She didn't know whether or not she was angry because of GLaDOS' new attitude, that Bob was captured, that she knew she had to save him, or all of the above. She went with the latter and slowly ran off down the next hall. Her leg felt better as she reached the next puzzle which seemed impossible. There was acid surrounding her besides a platform she couldn't reach, even while using the Portal Gun. She looked around and saw a platform she COULD get to and she did just to see a deep pit made up of cinder blocks. She remembered something she had found out about the portals, that you kept your momentum when you went through them. So she positioned the 2 portals in the right place and jumped. She flew through the air and landed next to the elevator.
"Good, but the next turrets won't be so nice, hahahaha." GLaDOS maniacally laughed.
Chell gulped when she saw the next test chamber filled with turrets. She slowly walked forward and grabbed a cube in front of her.
"Target found!" One yelled and started shooting everywhere.
She retreated with the cube after shooting a portal above the shooting turret. She placed the cube through a portal she had placed earlier which smashed the turret. It once again started shooting everywhere, including his turret friends. Soon there was basically a wall of bullets in front of Chell who waited for them all to run out of bullets. Then she proceeded to the next chamber which had Bob strapped to a cube in front of her. Chell ran forward but stopped when she saw a pit of acid. She finished the following puzzle and unstrapped Bob.
"Whew! Thanks! Don't worry we can still escape! We just need to go give GLaDOS a visit!" Bob exclaimed walking down a hallway.
"Here we are!" Bob said.
They were in front of a couple of more tests which looked literally impossible. In the first test there was a laser, a device that turns the light of the laser into electricity, and a button. Chell shot her portals so that the laser went into the device, which made a cube fall from the sky.
Chell placed the cube on the button and walked through the door.
"What is up with GLaDOS anyway?" Chell asked curiously.
"She went crazy when she found out she might die and killed almost everybody, you're the only one who survived." Bob explained.
They passed a couple more tests with flying colors, GLaDOS of course tormenting them along the way. Chell thought about what Bob said and realized that she saw the turret notes on her computer.
And that's, when they got to GLaDOS' lair.
