You breathe out a soft sigh while closing your car door. Walking up the small set of steps and opening the large wooden doors with a creak, you breathe in the dusty, stale air of the abandoned church. This was a place you used to visit almost daily, and it’s almost strange how little the place has changed. Sure, most things have been stolen or lost to mold and mildew, but it still looks like a church if you squint enough.

You walk up to one of the pews, making sure the wood won’t collapse under you before taking a seat. You had told GLaDOS and Wheatley that you were going out for the night, and classically, they didn’t ask questions. Now that you were left to your vices, you pulled out a cigarette and your lighter, quickly lighting the cigarette and taking a deep breath. Letting out a long breath of smoke, you close your eyes and take a moment to think.

You were forced to take tests that could’ve killed you and defeated a massive robot, and when you thought you were free, you were dragged back and had to do it all over again thousands of years later. Anybody you could’ve known in that building is dead, you barely have any memories of your life before being woken up, and due to your kindness, you brought the two robots that tried to kill you into your home and are now living with them!

You take another puff of the cigarette, leaning back against the church pews and tilting your head up as you breathe out the smoke slowly. Those two robots. They were a strange pair, those two. One is smart enough to fool hundreds of humans, yet she still can’t understand you. The other is too stupid for most people to deal with, yet he still doubts his abilities after everything. Throughout all your adventures and all your tests, you still grew fond of them and somehow forgave them after everything…

Slowly opening your eyes, you come across a surprising sight.

“So this is where you went, hm?” Wheatley says, that same stupid grin on his face just inches above yours.
