Authors Note: I don't own Portal 2. This is going off the idea in which all the characters were once in Aperture. By the way, each question will be answered by one of the major characters… Enjoy! Oh one more thing, The Interview Core and Anthony is based off of Machinima's The Underground Series.

Name: Neil McCormick

"Hey, Anthony! Where's that space kid I'm supposed to be interviewing?" The Core called out to the defective turret.

"I don't know." The turret said, dejectedly.

"Quit your whining! That's why we're stuck interviewing the people of Aperture and not the big time celebrities like Katy Perry, Derek Jeter or Emily Deschanel!"

"Weeeeeeeeeeeee!" Neil shouted from the new pipe in the little room. "Hi! I was in space."

"Hello, and welcome to the new Underground Interviewing room. I even redirected that pipe from the incinerator. So who are you?" The Interview Core asked.

"I'm Neil... The SPACE CADET!" He was bouncing in his seat with anticipation. "Am I going to space, I am right? Right?" He looked worried when there was no answer.

"Um, no. You're not." The Core said. "But I have a question fo-"

"NOOOOOOOOOO SPACEY, NOOOOOOOOOO! How could you do this to us?" Neil screamed in a high-pitched voice. "I loved space like it was my son! Even though I'm only 11!"

"Calm down kid, you'll get to go to space." The Interview Core said quickly.

"Oh, ok." Neil said. "So what was your question? Was it about space? Oh, lemme guess, it was about, wait for it… The MOON! Right?" He chattered on excitedly.

"Yeah…" The core trailed off. "What was the most fun you've ever had?"

"In space?" Neil said hopefully.

"Ok, sure."

"Ok. So once, before I was turned into a core, I had gone on a Field Trip to the Kennedy Space Center. The only reason I went on this one was because I got sick for the last one all the way to the Oregon Coast Museum. In Oregon!" He paused, catching his breath. "Well my mom let me go on this one because she felt bad. So my 5th grade class went and we saw tons of cool stuff. I even went in this thing where you sit in it and it spins around and around really fast. It was so cool, I almost barfed. Well anyways after that, we got lunch and I had SPACE Ice cream. Can you believe it? Ice cream… From SPACE! So cool. Anyways, after lunch, there was this one kid, Will, who snuck into the Rocket Garden, and actually got in one of the rockets. It wasn't dangerous, because they weren't operational, but it was still cool. And then on the way home we-."

"Are you done yet?" The Core asked, "Because quite frankly, I'm getting pretty bored."

"Bored? BORED? How can you be bored of space? It's unheard of. It's like GLaDOS saying she's bored of science!" Neil exaggerated.

"Yeah, bye." He said. "Claw, take him out." The huge mechanical claw came out from the ceiling and dragged Neil kicking and screaming.

"I love you SPACE!" He shouted as he was heaved into the pipe.

"Glad that's over with." The Interview Core muttered under his breath.

A/N: Ok so, really should be writing an essay now, but who cares? This, so far, is my best chapter. I just love the Space Core. I always thought this was how he fell in love with space. Review please. One less planet will be proven to be a dwarf if you do.
