Neo opened his eyes. He found himself in a phone booth- It was dark outside and a few trees lined a
sidewalk. He stepped out of the way as Rev was transported. She arrived awake, but bound. Neo grabbed her wrist
and pulled her out. His cell rang: "Hello?"
"Neo? Is Rev with you?" Spark asked.
"Yeah."
"Okay, the park is to your left, they're near a small stone bridge, it may be a bit hard to se. Start walking
down the path."
Neo did. Rev remained silent as she was pulled along.
"Okay," Spark continued his directions, "Make a left and you'll be there." He hung up.
Neo slipped his phone into his pocket and went left along the small concrete path. There were big oak
trees and some occasional benches and flowers.
"You know, Neo," Rev spoke behind him, "You were right."
Neo glanced back, it was hard to see through his dark glasses, "About what?" he asked coldly.
"This really is all your fault."
All of a sudden, a dark figure rose quickly from the ground in front of them. Neo jumped backwards,
"What the hell was that?!"
"They're here!" Rev sighed with a smile on her face.
The greenish mist took the shape of a frightening man, and hovered before Neo a moment before
becoming solid. It took the form of a tall man with white braids and piercing eyes. "Good, you're here."
Neo quickly got over his shock, "Where's Trinity?"
"In time, Mr. Thomas, in time." He smiled and laughed, sending chills up Neo's spine.
"Neo!" A voice called. It was Trinity!
"Trinity!" Neo gripped Rev tightly and sidestepped the man, "Where is she?!" Behind the man was the
stone bridge, arched over a small stream. Trinity was standing on it, with a man just like the one before Neo
holding a knife to her throat.
"Neo, I have to tell you something!" she shouted, "At the club...when you found me...I think maybe I
might have been-"
"Shut up, Trinity!" Rev shouted, "He already knows!" she almost laughed it.
"Bitch!" Trinity struggled against the man holding her.
Her captor pressed the flat side of the blade against her throat and shouted across to Neo, "Here's how its
going to go, Mr. Anderson- very smoothly. You walk Rev over to me, and once she's in my custody, I will give you
Trinity."
Neo frowned, "How about you walk Trinity over to me, and I give you Rev?"
The man laughed, "I believe I'm the one holding a knife against a throat, Mr. Anderson."
Quick as lightening, Neo pulled out his gun and put it against Rev's head, "Now I believe we're even," he
said calmly.
"Not quite." The twin who wasn't holding Trinity stepped forward, "You're outnumbered."
"Listen!" The other twin shouted, "We have to make this quick Mr. Anderson, so here's how it's gonna
work: You're gonna go by my rules, my plan! And there are ways to make you step forward..." He pulled the knife
away from Trinity's throat and pressed his lips against hers, kissing her long and passionately. Trinity tried to pull
away, but he wrapped his arm around her waist, sliding it down her leather-wear.
Neo dropped Rev and ran like mad at the twin, a rage burning inside him...How dare he touch her! How
dare he even lay a finger on her! He didn't dare to fire his gun at the cost of hitting Trinity. But before he reached
her, the other twin vanished and reappeared right in front of him. Neo crashed into the man and hit the ground
hard. His gun scattered and fell out of his reach. He looked up at the twin, then swung his legs, and landing back
on his feet.
Rev ran and hid behind a tree, trying to stay out of the twins way.
Neo swung at the man, but the ghost vanished, the reappeared next to Neo, kicking him sideways and
sending him flying into the trunk of a tree. Neo jumped up and began fighting furiously, but the twin would turn
ghostly at times, sending Neo's arm straight through him. Every time it did, Neo felt a cold blast that felt like
dipping his arm into an ice cooler. The twin jabbed for his chest, but he blocked, throwing him off like a rag doll.
Neo could really beat him up if he just stayed solid.
He jumped p and triple kicked the twin in the face, then drove his knee into his head. Neo looked up as
the twin lay on the ground and saw that the other twin was still holding Trinity tightly- putting his hands places
where they shouldn't be. He released her and smirked at Neo.
"Come and get her!" He shouted. The twin jumped high into the air, carrying Trinity with him, and
disappeared when he was about fifty feet up. Neo watched in horror as Trinity hung there for a moment before she
began to tumble back to the ground.
Time slowed and Neo crouched down on the ground, sending waves of earth rippling out from where he
knelt. He pushed off and broke an important rule of the Matrix: gravity. He flew through the air at an impossible
speed, his coat flying out behind him, fire trailing from his feet.
Trinity fell in slow motion, falling down, down, down. She saw the stone bridge spiraling closer and
closer to her. Neo felt his stomach scrape the bridge as he launched as across and caught her in his arms. He tore
through the night air and sailed over the buildings, holding Trinity in his arms.
She looked up at him, eyes opening slowly. She smiled and closed them tightly, feeling the rush of flying.
The twin landed back on his feet and found his brother and Rev. "They're gone," he said.
"Why' d you let them get away?!" Rev demanded angrily.
"It doesn't matter," Two said, staring up sat the starless sky. His appearance wavered for a moment, then
his mashed face reformed into its regular self, "I have a feeling we'll meet again anyway."
Neo sat Trinity down in the bus stop where a small bench was protected by a glass three-walled
"building." He searched her eyes, asking if she was okay.
"I'm fine, Neo. Really, I am."
Neo nodded.
Even the crickets had stopped chirping, and the still night air wrapped around them like a blanket.
"Trinity?"
"Yeah?"
"Um..how long- did you know? I mean, about- the thing."
"A month." Trinity replied curtly, looking at the ground.
"And- and you didn't tell me?" They didn't look at each other.
"I wasn't sure."
"And you are now?"
There was along pause before she answered, "No."
"Trinity, I-"
Trinity turned around and put her hands on the his face, smoothing back his hair with her thumbs, "I'm
so sorry, Neo. I'm so sorry." She kissed him gently, trying to console him.
Eventually, he pulled away from her and looked sadly into her eyes, "I guess we're gonna be going
through a hell of a lot more shit than before, huh?"
"Yeah, I guess so."
Trinity leaned her head against his shoulder and sighed.
There was gonna be only one more chapter, but I changed my mind and decided to keep this going for a bit
longer....Hope you enjoy!
