One minute-thirty seconds in. Doug still didn't have a place to hide, he needed one though, or she would kill him. He sprinted down the empty corridors, looking at the doors he passed to see if there were any cameras. finally, he stumbled upon a room with no security, he threw himself in and locked the door behind him, with twelve seconds left to spare. he took a quick look around the room, he was in a kitchen, there was a fridge, a sink, a large grill/range-top, a few drawers, and a doorway leading into an employee locker room. He decided to go to the lockers to see what he could find. once in the room he noted that it was a lot smaller than it looked, he quickly checked all the unlocked lockers, nothing but some towels, he took one to use later, then he found it, a navy blue messenger bag, this would prove to be useful if he was going to continue playing this game of survival until one of them dropped dead. he went back into the kitchen and looted the fridge, dumping its contents into the bag. Not much, just a few cans of beans, a carton of milk, and some bottled water. He turned to the drawers, they were all empty, save for one, the silverware drawer, he snatched the can opener and a spork from the drawer, laid down on the towel, folded into a sleeping bag, and drifted off to sleep.

When Doug awoke a short time later, it was to the sound of her metallic, processed, sarcastic, voice. "where are you? you have to come out sooner or later. if you don't I might have to send something after you" Doug didn't want to stay and find out what that something was, so he went over to the door and prepared himself to run.

"found you, I win" GLaDOS said to a terrified Doug, who was frantically rushing down the hall.

"that was easy, I think we should play again. do you? okay, if you insist." as she said this, doug bolted right into a side corridor, then left into an office. He was getting into the older parts of aperture, most of which are sealed off. Then, it hit him, if he could get into Cave Johnson's office, he could get the master remote, a device that Cave had made so he could control anything in the lab. with that, he could get into the maintenance shafts, and hide from GLaDOS until the time came to run again. the only problem now was that he had no idea where Mr. Johnson's office was, now he just needed to find a map. he took a look around him, just a normal office, desk, cabinet, computer. Doug looked back to the computer, with computer skills such as his, he could easily log into the system and find a map leading to the old office, and thats just what he did. Doug's fingers flew across the keyboard as he furiously hacked the aperture database. eventually he got it. username: cjohnson. password: teir3. after logging in, he searched map, and got what he was asking for, he ripped a page from a book on the desk and hurriedly jotted the map down, he was quite the artist. after copying the map down he braced at the door again and counted down. "three... two... one!" on one he forced the door open and ran for the door across the hall he was looking for, when he got inside, he took a look around, he was in a basic access in-wall shaft, that led ten floors down, right where he needed it. he started walking down the seemingly endless steel stairs.
