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. And you know what, too my 2 loyal readers, of a total of 6 reviews, thank you. You two have actually inspired me too write these stories, and it's great to know my idols actually like my stories. Thanks again.
Name: Companion Cube
"Hello, you strange and dumb people of Aperture." The Core said cheerfully. "I mean really, you stay here even though this place is a death trap. If I were you, I would have left years ago. Sadly, I have no appendages. I don't even have two optics, I have one. Anyways, please welcome, the Companion Cube!" You can hear the fake applause coming from somewhere in the house.
The cube with the pink heart falls from the pipe and lands with a small thud in one of the chairs. The cube has a small pink note attached to the top that says 'Hello, I will not stab you in the back.'
"I guess that's a good thing. Right?" The metal ball concluded. "Um, so. Companion Cube, what was the worst thing to happen to you?"
The pink paper attached to it's top suddenly said 'When I was in Test Chamber 17, a female test subject came around. When she picked me up, I would think things like: I love you, and she would nod and smile and hug me. She used me as a stepping stool, which I suggested, than she used me as a shield against the yellow flashy orbs. That was fun, they tickled when they hit me. Well, she used me for a lot of other things too. But all this made the bad thing horrible. She started becoming attached to me. But at the end of the test, She said things to her. She told her that shoe would have to incinerate me. The lady just grabbed me and sat in a corner, not moving. But than She told her more things, and the lady put me down, in front of the chute. Than she walked over to the button, and pushed it. I started thinking of how I wished I could cry. But before she burned me, she kissed my heart, and mouthed I love you. Then, she chucked me into the incinerator.'
"Aww." The Interview Core sniffled. "What a sad story. Don't you think so Anthony?"
"Yeah, worse than my only daughter dying. She was passed through an Emancipation Grid." Anthony sighed depressingly. "Poor Jane…"
"Yeah poor Jan- Wait, how did all that writing appear on that note? Before it only said on sentence. You don't even have a speaker or hands. Who wrote that?" He said, suddenly suspicious of the cube.
'That's for me to know, and you to find out. Besides, you have bigger things to worry about. Much bigger things indeed.' The cube's note said.
"Ooh, ominous. I like it! Wait, you and that rat guy mentioned something was going to happen soon. Can you predict the future? Is that how he knew?" The Core asked quickly.
'Beware of the turrets.'
A/N: Oh, is this going to be bigger? Is it, perhaps, Conspiracy? Is it just ramblings of a madman and his cube, or something much bigger? Review and you get a free cake. That's not a lie… Add to favorites and you get yourself some lemon icing to top it off! Oh and PM me if you think you know what's going to happen.
