Portal: Glados' story

Chapter 17

       Glados and Chell eventually got up there and heard Wheatley talking. They walk over to the window to look into the test chamber, seeing a screen with his face. 

      "For god's sake! Your BOXES with LEGS! It's literally your only purpose! Walking onto buttons! How can you not do the one thing you're designed for?" He continued to yell at them while Chell and Glados found a way in. They placed the franken-turret on the button and got his attention.

       "Hey! Moron!" Glados yelled to him.

       "Oh, hello."

       "Alright, paradox time." She said to Chell. "This. Sentence. Is. FALSE! Don't think about it don't think about it don't think about it don't think about it..."

       "True. I'll go true." Wheatley said absentmindedly. "Huh, that was easy. Might've heard that one before though. Sort of cheating."

       "It's a paradox! There IS no answer! Look! This place is going to blow up if I don't get back in my body!"

       "False. I'll go false."

       The announcer's voice came on. "Explosion imminent. Evacuate the facility immediately."

       "I thought I fixed that?"

       "Warning. Reactor core is at critical te-."  The voice cut out.

       "There. Fixed. Look, it is great seeing you guys again. Seriously. And it turns out that I'm a little bit short on test subjects right now, so this works out perfect. And off we go!"

       Chell and Glados walked through the door and to the next test.

      "You have no idea what it is like in this body! I have to test. All the time. Or I get this... this ITCH. It must be hardwired into the system or something. Oh! But when I do test... Ohhhh man alive! Nothing feels better. It's just I've got to test... got to test. So you're going to test and I'm going to watch. And everything is going to be just...FINE."

      "Warning: Core overheating. Nuclear meltdown imminent."

       "SHUT UP!"

       "Uh oh. I think we're in trouble." Glados stated.

       Chell pressed the button in the test and Wheatley seemed ecstatic.

       "Ohhh yes. Well done."

       They walked through the door, expecting to go to the next test.

       "Actually, since making tests is so difficult, why don't we keep solving this test? Same one. And I can just watch you solve it. That sounds much easier." 

      They entered the same test again. "Here we go! Do it again!" 

       Chell solves the test, again. "Annnnnnd... nothing. Alright, can't blame you for trying. New tests, new tests... there has got to be some new tests somewhere. Oh, here we go..."

      Chell and Glados walk to the elevator and hop in. "Alright. So my paradox idea didn't work. And it almost killed me. Luckily, by the looks of things he knows as much about test building as he does about logical contradictions." 

       The elevator took them to the next test. "Alright! Everything is good! Just invented some more tests!"

      "Hey! This is one of MY tests." Glados said annoyed.

      "Not entirely! Not entirely! See the word test on the wall? That's brand new."

      Chell completed the test and they walked to the elevator.
