"If you want to know, it's actually down the hall, to the right, down that passage, then a left, go straight until you get to the fifth door on your left, take the elevator down to level 20, go straight and take another left, and you should find it. Just be careful. If you are trapped in the compression chamber when it activates, you are a definite goner" said GLaDOS.
Several minutes later, T and Chell made it to the black hole compression chamber. "There it is. I just put in an access code into this monitor here and it should just give it to me" said T as she opened panel on the wall and plugged her hand into it. "T, what are you doing?" Asked Chell. "Interfacing with the compressor. It would be literally suiside if either of us were to just walk in there without the proper procedures and gear. The machine uses intense pressure and 0-point energy to compact the black holes into a size suitable for insertion into a dual portal gun" explained T. "If someone got caught inside, it would be a true bloodbath. And I'm not too keen on going inside of suicide booth (Futurama reference) and cleaning it up with my status!" said T.
The monitor slid aside and a robotic arm extended holding a capsule which seemed to bend light and reality slightly toward itself. "Chell, here's what you need to do. When I open my chest plate, I need you to take out the capsule in the center and quickly replace it with the new one. It shouldn't harm you at all as long as you don't hold it for more than five minutes. I'm not going to be awake to help you so I need to know if you understand what to do. Ok?" said T. "Ummmmm, ok T" said Chell. As she had described, T opened up her chest while her irises went out and Chell saw a cylinder about the size of a small can and she quickly replaced it with the new one.
"God, that was a nightmare! Glad that's over with" said T as she went back online. "Hey T, can I ask you something?" said Chell. "Fire away!" answered T. "What's it like when you power down?" said Chell, "it's not too bad, but I don't want to do it any more than necessary. You see, it's like floating around in a dark void while a video plays in the blackness. You can still move around and talk, but you are just suspended there. It's kinda nice but it's cold as hell" said T.
"And how often do you have to go through this?" Asked Chell as they headed back" once every two years or so or after I override the facility. If you want to know what that's like, it's pretty exhilarating. I get this sudden rush of energy. It's almost like drinking liquid meth!" Said T. "Oh…ok. I don't know what that's like but I can guess" said Chell. "Yeah, being an android is pretty fun actually. You should try it sometime. If GLaDOS had the Right stuff to simulate it that " said t as she kicked back in the air and started to levitate alongside Chell.
"How are you doing that?" asked GLaDOS as they entered the room. "Oh, you mean levitate? I'm not really sure about that. I just figured it out one day. I think I might have something to do with my internal particle collider and it's ability to produce helium and then compress it into a solid form that is much lighter than air. And I just now realized how much tech I have inside of me. Man I'm super advanced!" laughed T.
"There is so much about you that needs explaining. Things like your carefree attitude, your power source being a black hole, how you can transform into something with more matter than you are made of, me your abilities to travel dimensions, gain control of the facility, levitate, and your seemingly endless knowledge. I don't even think that Cave himself knew exactly how much you are capable of doing" said GLaDOS.
"Honestly, he didn't. I don't even know the limits of my own power. But I'm eager to find out. GLaDOS, prepare an indestructible test chamber with literally everything you can think of. I'm going to see exactly what I can do!" Said T.
