Half Life 2 Episode 3: Becoming the Monster
chapter 4: "Lose your mind to me..."
Gordon awoke in a dark room with only one dim flickering light in the middle. When he went to stand on his two feet he fell over on his side. 'Right... I forgot...' He thought getting back up on all fours this time. 'o.k. Last thing I remember is getting the crap knocked out of me by a hunter... Then what?' His eyes widened when he remembered. 'Damn... I wish they would at least have sub-purposed my memories of THAT... Oh stop being a wimp! Surgery isn't that bad!' Pause... 'o.k. maybe it is... But what of Alyx? I hope shes o.k... Did they survive the attack? I have to find her!' He lay down to plan his escape.
"Touching..." An unknown voice said laughing. Gordon's instincts kicked in and he jumped up looking for the source of the voice. "So human... What is your name?" the voice continued. 'Wait it knows I'm human?' there was more laughter before the voice continued. "Not so smart now are we human? I can read your mind. I heard your thoughts from earlier." Gordon heard movement behind him. He whipped around and came face to face with an adviser. He yipped and jumped back to get some distance. The adviser was the one talking. He lowered his head and growled remembering Eli's death. "So you are that human." 'So you knew.' Gordon thought knowing the adviser could hear him. "Your thought pattern gave it away." 'What thought pattern?' "The pathetic human emotion you call 'love'..." The advisers last word lingered in Gordon's mind as he thought of Alyx. "So she really is your one weakness. Would have been nice to know a little earlier... don't you think?" 'Just get to the point already!' "have patients human. The point is 'she' is about to kill herself." 'wh-what? No this... this cant be happening!' Gordon started to panic. His attention turned to the arch way with the blue field of energy blocking it. He immediately started banging himself against the force field wall that bared his path. By the time the adviser looked over to Gordon he was already half way through the force field. The adviser picked up Gordon dragging him back in. "Be still human..." the adviser said holding him. Once Gordon came out of his panic attack the adviser sat him back on the ground. 'I have to find her!' Gordon thought looking into the advisers robotic eye. "Be patient you will see her soon. But first..." The adviser placed its tongue against Gordon's head. Thoughts from the adviser entered his mind. "Lose your mind to me..."
