It's for Science

''This is literally based on a dream I had a week or so ago. To be honest, it was practically a nightmare... It's a crossover of the Portal games and Animal Jam. I was sort of inspired by TechSaur's Portal story, which inspired me to finally write this dream down and convert it into a story.''

I failed the test.

I hit the floor, and it hurt. Hard.

I don't get those fancy boots like the other subjects... I don't even get a gun yet.

"Oh just keep drying," a melodramatic, ominous voice called. It came from a large speaker mounted in a little camera, that was used to watch my every move. "You know, the sooner you finish this test, the sooner you'll get out. I recommend you don't goof around."

I sighed, then pranced back over to the friendly red button. Zios, I'm the worst person for this. There's wolves, koalas, even monkeys in the chambers beside me. Me? I'm a flippin' giraffe. How am I supposed to do this?

However, I had already forgot the location of one of the obstacles, proving I wasn't ready to pass the test.... I stupidly stepped on a hidden "aerial faith plate," and it set off beneath my hoof. Even though I was a little too heavy for it, it still sent me in the air a foot or so, and I flopped hard on the ground beside it.

Zios, Mira, the button was RIGHT THERE! I could almost reach it!

The other guys have done this test 5 times already!

The voice remained emotionless. "Are you kidding me? All you need to do to press the button, is remember where the friendly faith plates are, stupid. Of course, you must be really fat too. I've never seen a faith plate unable to give somebody more than a few feet of the ground."

I sighed, and then the speakers came on again a few seconds later. "Stupid."
