[A/N]

First of all, thank you for the reviews!
Secondly, thank you to Maegash1r4 for pointing out some of the plotholes. I am by no means a professional writer, so these will probably occur a lot.

Also, there was a slight mistake in the previous chapter. If anyone was wondering why it said, 'trying her' instead of 'trying to kill her', that wasn't on purpose.

Lastly, I feel like the last chapters are beginning to feel a bit... boring. I'll try to pack a bit more action in the next one.

Anyway, reviews are greatly appreciated, and enjoy the chapter!

And there she was, on the floor of the Central AI Chamber, giggling away to what just happened.

"How did you even get up there?" The AI queried, while the girl was picking up one of the balls.

"Just…. Follow the catwalks, hope for the best. That's how it usually works." The test subject answered, while finding out that the balls don't bounce without the gel.

"I really should've destroyed those after the first…. incident."

"Wouldn't do that now, otherwise you'd have to carry me in a lift the whole day."

"Isn't that exactly what I do?"

"…Maybe."

"I'll help you there. The correct answer is 'Yes'. Anyway, let's see what's next on the list…."

The sound of pages being flipped could be heard from the PA system.

"There. You are going to fix the mess you've made."

"What mess? You mean the balls?"

"Edgeless safety cubes."

"Alright, 'edgeless safety cubes', do I have to incinerate them, or something?"

"That's just the start."

"…What?"

"There is repulsion gel sprayed all over the facility, using an unauthorised portal device, and one of the repulsion gel pipelines is leaking."

"Come on, you can fix that yourself, right?"

"Cleaning up the repulsion gel you so generously sprayed every five feet, I cannot do. My control of the manufacturing wing is… limited, so fixing the gel pipe is out of the question. The only thing I can do?"

A claw came zipping down from the ceiling.

"Hand me the portal device."

"That's the easiest task on the list."

"Do you want to go do it yourself?"

The claw lifted up a bit, as to emphasise her point.

"No! Take it!"

The AI let out a small chuckle, and accepted the portal gun.

"Now go do what's left."

An elevator arose out of the floor.

"Actually, can I have that gun back? The trip will take half as long without it."

"Well, where's the fun in that?"

The girl frowned. "Really?"

"Do I have to repeat it?"

"…Fine." She stepped into the elevator, which closed immediately.

"Good luck. You'll need it."

After having disabled the emergency gel output on the repulsion gel, the test subject exited the manufacturing wing via a lift.

After the elevator dropped her off in the Central AI Chamber, the AI spoke.

"Now for the second part. Cleaning up the gel. As I'm sure you've noticed, this task will be impossible without a portal device."

"Just give me one already."

On the right side of the circular room, panels moved out of the way, to reveal a portal gun on a pedestal. Next to it, an orange portal in the floor opened, and clear water started flowing.

The girl had been thirsty for a pretty long time now, and the view of clear water only made her more longing to it.

Before she realised what was going on, the test subject found herself hanging under the stream of water, drinking as much as she could.

After a second or two, the stream stopped flowing.

"What makes you think that a fluid capable of clearing liquid moon rocks off of a surface is good to drink?"

The girl immediately spat out whatever she had in her mouth, wide eyed. After coughing a bit, she responded.

"Why didn't you just tell me?" Another cough.

"Did you know you run sixteen percent faster when hungry? Me neither. I witnessed it for the first time, just now."

"Just shut up and help me! How exactly is this going to affect me?"

"Well, where to start… Kidney failure, dissolving stomach… It gets worse overtime."

"Well, that's good to know!"

"You asked."

"I-…. Jus-… Don't just hang there! Help me!"

"Now how would I do that? If your meaty digits would fit inside your mouth, you might be able to make yourself throw up."

The test subject responded by immediately sticking one of her fingers in her mouth, desperately trying to make herself puke.

Eventually, it worked, and clear liquid, along with remains of bread and 'beans' came flowing out. The AI recorded every second of it. For science, of course.

"I'll have you know, I won't get started with an empty stomach."

"I'll go get some bread then."

Behind the girl, panels opened up, revealing a hallway.

"You know where to find it."

"You know what to do now."

"Do you really feel the need to waste food?"

"Yes."

Transference complete.

"Just remember I'll waste away you're precious food, I'm sure you'll change your mind."

"When have I ever?"

"…You are too stubborn for my liking."

"And that's why I like it."

After having eaten an entire meal and having cleaned up all the gel in her path, the girl headed back to the Central AI Chamber.

"Are you done yet, or are you here for another meal?"

"Yes… I'm done…" The test subject said, tiredly.

"I see you're too tired to engage in flipping pages for another two hours. I'll call a lift to your 'room'."

"Good, please do." The human yawned.

The elevator ascended out of the floor again, and the girl stepped in, closing her eyes and leaning against the back.

When the elevator opened up again, so did the test subject's eyes. What she didn't expect to see, though, was a turret right in front of her.

It pointed it's laser right at her forehead. They hadn't done that before. Most of the time they aim it right at her chest. The girl pressed her eyes shut, crawling to the back of the small lift car in an attempt to hide herself.

What the small turret actually did, was… unexpected, to say the least.

"Goodnight." Its high-pitched, child-like voice somehow sounding soothing to her, especially with what it just said.

The test subject slowly opened her eyes again, and visibly relaxed. The turret's focus looked down to her chest for a split second, then moved up to her head again.

A smile crept up on her face. She patted the little turret on its 'head', and made her way to her bedroom.

Never knew a turret could be so cute, she thought to herself, and promptly fell asleep.
