"Woah, what the hell?" Knuckles had awoken in an unfamiliar place Some strange clear glass walled vault. He was looking around for an exit, but couldn't find a thing. There were metal bars across the bottom of his shoes, and he was wearing a weird orange jumpsuit as if he was a prisoner. A male robotic voice started speaking, "Welcome to the Aperture Science Computer Aided Enrichment Center!"
"Ah!" Knuckles shouted. He looked around to see where the voice is coming from. The voice continued, "Due to quick progress for the other test subjects, testing will begin immediately. The portal will open and testing will begin in 3, 2, 1."
A portal appeared on the wall in front of Knuckles. He saw himself facing the portal in a somewhat inverted mirror position, "What?
Knuckles wasn't sure if he was supposed to walk inside. The portal looked sort of threatening. It was a fire-like orange. He touched what he thought was the fire of the portal, but he felt nothing but ice cold air. He assumed it was safe, so we proceeded through the portal. There was a round door that opened, he walked through and saw a large red button, then a strange cube dropped from above. Knuckles didn't know what to do. He put the pieces together and walked over to the button and set foot on it. The door opened, so Knuckles stepped off the button to get inside, but the door closed as soon as he left the button.
"What?" Knuckles uttered. He looked at the cube, "Hm." He walked over to it. He bended down to pick it up, expecting something very heavy, so he thrusted up as he lifted the cube up, but fell on his back due to how light the cube was. Knuckles got up, "Note to self: Don't make any more assumptions, for now." He picked the cube up and put it on the button. The door opened. Knuckles walked through the door to a strange looking elevator. He went inside and the elevator started moving. The robotic voice continued, "There has been a-" a loud static noise interrupted the voice, and then the voice continued, "urbance with th-" the voice then shorted out. The elevator then dropped 30 feet. Knuckles was bracing himself for it to hit the floor. But it continued to fall, then it stopped. The elevator then continued up. Knuckles was very disoriented, "What the hell was that?" After a few minutes of the elevator moving up, it stopped, and the doors opened. Knuckles stepped out to see another round door in front of him. The door opened, Knuckles looked around, feeling like he was being watched. But no one was there. He went through the door to see a strange device sitting on a podium. Knuckles walked toward it. The device looked a lot like a gun. Knuckles seized it from the podium and held it like a gun. The voice continued, making Knuckles jump, "You have possessed the Aperture Science Handheld Portal Device, or portal gun, for short. With this 'gun', you can create one linked portal with one that the enrichment center makes. Also, congratulations on finishing the first 4 test chambers."
"What?" Knuckles said, "I didn't finish any test chambers." Knuckles then realized that the elevator he was in climbed more feet then he thought. Apparently he missed the first four test chambers.
"So how the hell am I going to know these new ones if I hadn't done the others."
He had received no answer. Knuckles shouted louder, "Are you listening!" Still no answer. Knuckles went through the door in front of him, "Damn it." There was a cube sitting on a platform in front of him, it seemed to be sitting on a hatch, many feet below the hatch there is a floor, which seemed to be a portal conductor. The cube and Knuckles were separated by a large pool of acid. What was near his reach was the floor he was standing on, which had a pre made orange portal. Knuckles noticed that there was a strange red button, he pressed it. The hatch opened making the cube drop to the floor and it bounced off into the acid, disintegrating. Knuckles fired a blue portal where the floor was. He pressed the button. The hatched opened, and the cube fell a few feet once it finally went through the blue portal, jumping really high in the air out of the orange portal. There was a slanted wall, Knuckles shot a portal there. Right as the cube fell into the orange portal, it leaped out of the blue one making it's way to a higher ledge. A staircase formed, Knuckles walked up as the robot voice continued to speak, "A new feature to the revamped tests is sensors that can tell when a certain object is in a certain place. If it is, an action will form that is plentiful to the test subjects. Knuckles got to the higher ledge and put the cube on the super colliding super button. He walked through the door and into the elevator, "Now can I go home?"
The voice continued, "Great job, but more lies ahead."
"Damn!"
