More Portal! /drools
Can you guess who He is? Probably not because I haven't decided yet!
I don't own Portal or Hetalia.
"If the Facility is still remotely intake since before the fall, we should be approximately three floors from the Core Hub. You'll be pleased to know that the Central Core is just next door to that. Oh, I wonder if he is still awake."
"Hmm? Did you say something, Mattie? How about helping me with this chamber? We've been here forever!" Alfred was flopped down on the ground, taking a breather as he tried to go over in his head how to get to the exit.
"That is not allowed."
"Aww, not even a hint? Just a tiny one?"
Matthew didn't respond. "Use your Portal Gun."
"Urgh. Real helpful, Mattie!" Alfred laughed and stood up. "Okay! Let's try this again. I hope you're not afraid of heights."
Alfred shot a portal at the ceiling, then another at the wall, he walked to it and jumped through, shooting another portal as he fell, just above the exit door. After touching down, Alfred jumped and cheered. "I knew that's what you were supposed to do!"
"Are you sure you didn't just complete the test wrong?"
"Oh, Mattie, I thought AIs hated paradoxes. Now, let's hurry up!"
He breezed through the next two chambers and soon he and Matthew were standing in the Core Hub. Behind a broken panel of glass, other corrupted cores were sitting in suspended animation.
"Know any of them?" Alfred asked Matthew.
"No."
"Yeah. Okay, how do we fix you?"
"Stick me in that panel in the corner and the computers will do everything else."
Alfred did as he was told and waiting impatiently for something to happen.
Matthew was silent as whirring sounds and buzzing sounded around the room. His eye flashed bright purple, red, and then purple again. Then he shut off completely.
"M-Mattie?" Alfred asked quietly. "You okay? Matthew?" He stepped towards the robot and carefully touched the sphere. "Are you still alive?"
The whirring and buzzing gradually stopped and Matthew popped out of the panel and rolled on the floor in front of Alfred.
"Oh God…" Alfred kneeled down. "Oh God… Matthew… I'm sorry…"
A purple light flickered back on just as Alfred felt tears begin to drip down his face.
"H-Hello?" A soft, shy voice asked. "Hello?"
"Matthew?!" Alfred pulled the sphere up to his face and hugged it. "Oh God! I thought I'd killed you!"
"W-Who are you?" The robot gasped. "Where's my rail! Oh no! They told me I'd die!" The sphere began hyperventilating.
"M-Mattie. Don't you remember? We were just talking not five minutes ago," Alfred said, wiping tears from his face.
"I haven't seen a human in so long," Matthew said quietly. "I'm sorry."
"No. It's fine. Well, I'm Alfred, and you're Matthew. We've met a few days ago, but you told me you were corrupted so I took you with me so I could fix you and… I guess all the data from then to now was wiped from your bank." He gave a watery smile.
"Oh. I-I'm sorry. You said your name was Alfred? I-I'll try and be your friend again."
Alfred smiled. "That would be—"
"Well, well, well."
Matthew gasped. "H-he's awake! Oh no, oh no, oh no!"
"Who—?"
The floor dropped out from Alfred's feet and he fell down a shaft.
"Oh nooo!" Matthew yelled as he fell with Alfred. "Not good, not good at all!"
