Happiest Day of My Life (with a note by the real Alice Jones)

Hey guys!

I'm so sorry, but if you want to see the chapter before this, which has Pheonix as the main character, go to Pheonix's blog.

Sorry!

Alice.







We decided to push forward a little more. We walked for what seemed like an eternity before we came upon a HUGE safe. There were two rooms on either side of the room. I portaled up to one of the rooms. There was a single button on a pedestal and I pressed it. A ticker started, and it was counting down on a screen above my head.

"It's a timer!" I yelled down to them, "Portal to the other room!"

Caroline, Pheonix and Mimi were on one side, while Wheatley and I were on the other.

"....1.....2....3!"

We pressed the button simultaneously, and an alarm sounded. We all ducked and looked around expectantly for something disastrous to happen.

The safe door started to open, and we gaped as at least a million bodies in stasis were revealed. A pedestal rose from the ground and a computer rose from it. I squealed, and ran to it.

"Please type in a name." said a male computer voice. Immediately, I typed in the name "Wheatley Jones".

Something clicked, and the bodies shifted, moving around until one body was lowered to the ground. The case was so foggy, I couldn't see inside.

"Wheatley Jones," said the voice, "Transferred into Intelligence Dampening Sphere. Transfer back?"

"Yes!" I said my eyes wide.

"Place subject name 'Wheatley Jones' into the Aperture Science Transfer Core."

I eagerly placed him in the socket that appeared from the floor.

"Subject accepted. Transfer active."

Wheatley's eye grew wide, "I'm going back! I can't believe I'm finally going back! Alice, your a geni-AHHHHHHHHHH!"

His sentence got cut off, as he was lowered into the floor. "Wheatley!" I screamed, now sure I had made a mistake. But I was too late. The capsule holding the body opened, and a man stumbled out.

He was medium height, not small,but not tall either, with sandy colored hair. He was wearing a white lab coat that seemed at least two sizes to big for him, and black work shoes. He was skinny, probably from not having been fed for god knows how many years, and he looked like he was half asleep. From the table the computer was on, appeared a pair of glasses.

I shut my mouth, I had been gaping at him for a good two minutes, screamed at the top of my lungs, and ran to him, immediately pulling him into the biggest hug on earth. I looked up at him, into into his big blue eyes, shining with happiness, and pushed the glasses up the bridge of his nose. He smiled at me, and I smiled too.

"Welcome back."
