The Other Survivors

A fan fiction of: The Matrix.

By Andilynn, Princess of the elves

Prologue

Abigail

I am not a free born. I was born into bondage and fought my mind for its freedom. I am Abigail, a escapee from the Matrix. I am not alone. I travel around the real world with a few other companions. We fly a hovercraft called the "Ulysses Cruiser." My companions are: Laman and Lemuel (Two twin boys, full of plans to destroy the Matrix), Nephi, (My ships 2nd in commander.) Mariah, (Nephi's wife, they married inside the matrix and both left it together.) and Elijah (Mariah's and Nephi's free born son. Now he's about 14).
I am the commander of my ship. I am also the only female who can go into the matrix on my ship. Mariah, the only other girl, cannot go into it again, the jump program is too difficult for her, let alone the matrix. Sometimes I feel lonely, like there's gotta be someone else out there, someone else who can help us free the slaves. Sometimes this feel's like the 18th century civil war. The Union and Confederate. We're the union.

"Abigail!" Elijah yelled as he ran into my room. I shot up from my bed and looked at him. "What?" I asked standing up and hurrying to my dresser. "We got sqiddies." I rolled my eyes, quickly changed my top and then ran to my place in the front cabin. I watched as Lemuel piloted the Ulysses into an old parking hanger. "How many?" I whispered. "Three." Mariah responded as she placed a hand on my shoulder. I looked at her, "Tell everybody not to move, they're tracking us." She nodded and hurried off. I sat down in my proper seat and sighed. "Okay, so what's the 411 in the Ulysses?" I asked opening the electric shock frequency. "Soon as we get these squddies off our tail we're sending Laman, Nephi and you into the matrix.you'll need to go and find a man named Neo Anderson."
I felt my heart skip a beat. Neo? Neo.the oracle once said something about a man I never knew, being familiar in his own way.a way only I knew. I nodded, swallowed and then watched as the sqiddies searched us for life. I said silent prayer to Mariah as the sqiddies flew off. "Send me in." I whispered. Lemuel nodded.
We walked into the main deck where Elijah sat at our computer, the mainframe to the matrix. "Three." He counted down, I felt the tip of the plug touch my head. "two." I felt Mariah insert it into my head. "One." I said, then was jolted into the Matrix. A one way video game where I could do anything, the one place I felt in power.
