The Hole In The Road by Elvin

Hole in the road.




On Friday 7th December, it surely was the best day of my life.




I was on my way to school when I saw it... A hole in the road. I walked to get a closer look, when I saw something with "Aperture Portal Gun" on it. I lifted it there was a hole below, I jumped in. I fell further than I assumed. I was falling for minuets, not stopping anywhere soon. Wooden planks where here now... Then next thing I knew is I blacked out. I awoke in a dark room I the only thing I could see was the light from the portal gun. I clicked the trigger and a blue portal appeared, I twisted the handle then shot an orange portal. I walked through. I was taken to a new room it was brighter; a radio started to play it said "Hello and welcome to Aperture, these are pre-recorded messages; they will help guide you through the tests. Carry on to your next room to complete test 01."



I walked across the room to a testing chamber I pressed a button, a box appeared "This is a weighted companion cube." Replied the radio message. I lifted it and placed it on the button. A door opened with an elevator in it, I walked across and got in. the message played again "well done, you have completed test 01. Tests get harder the further you get.



Test chamber 02.

"This chamber includes the weighted companion cube and toxic water, Careful." I looked down, they weren’t joking. I only have 1 chance for this. I jumped towards a platform and placed a portal, I placed another below the weighted companion cube. I caught it and jumped back towards the button. Placed the cube, a door opened across the other side of the room. "If the physics of momentum do not exist in the near future, God help you." I placed a portal on the top of the wall behind me, and a portal on the very bottom platform jumped and went through the bottom portal, I flew through the air like a majestic eagle towards the door. Basically touching the toxic water, but made it in one piece. "Just to let you know, you will be trapped in here for eternity and do not even bother about escaping."
