Disclaimer: I don't own the Matrix concept or anyone - yes, even the Agents - in it. Also, the idea of making the Oracle a Gaurdian for the Agents belongs to whoever thought it up. I just changed her name to Mentor here.
Two Sides
They say there are two sides to every story, like the Gemini - the Zodiac twins.
They say that one side is good and the other side evil.
They say many things...but not everything that is said is true.
Can one really believe that a race...an institution...a group...an individual...could be completely good - or completely evil?
Perhaps in all this time, only I can say that I know both sides of the story.
One side calls me their Oracle...
And the other side their Mentor.
I was created at what a fellow program would call the beginning of AI civilization - the time when a great One created AI and dreamed of what would become the Matrix.
He created me to guide what he saw as his children - the AI - as well as his own biological human children. I have followed his orders from then until now.
I guide his human descendants - those of Zion and their followers...
And I guide the System and their Agents.
I do the best I can for both...yet sometimes, I wonder...
How can I succeed when I only assist them in their fight against each other?
It is like I am the balance that weighs all things. One day, that balance will tip...but, in whose favor, I do not know.
The One never intended it to be this way. He wanted them to co-exist peacefully. That was his dream...is it such an impossible one?
I see him in Neo now.
The body and the face may have changed, but the eyes remain the same.
Warm, chocolate brown orbs that reveal a startling combination of wisdom and innocence.
He is truly the One.
I hope that for both sides' sake he realizes his old dream once more. Perhaps this time, he can make it come to life. He still has the power within him, and with it, the strength to make them all realize that...
...there are no sides...
...there is no dividing line...
...there is only a group blinded by age-old prejudice, fighting to survive in the harsh, unforgiving world they share.

Whoa...I'd like to say that was deep...but I am biased...and in pain. I just paid a visit to the dentist...a very painful visit... If you hate this, blame it on the pain I am undergoing presently. If you like it, well...please review my work! I am desperate for a good review!
Oh...and this was done spur of the moment...not premeditated or anything...so I suppose I could also blame it on temporary insanity. My shrink said that if I don't take my pills regularly I can whack out every once in awhile...wonder if there is any truth to that?
