Chapter 3
Kit felt a pinprick on her arm. She instantly pulled it away and looked down at it. A speck of blood. She altered her sight so that she could see the Matrix in its true form.
The green code streamed down in front of her eyes. She looked at her blood; there was something in it, some sort of programme. She changed her sight again and turned round to see one of the Mero's flunkies. She turned back to his boss.
"What is this?" she asked angrily. The Mero simply smiled.
"That is a special programme I wrote for you to keep you up here. You can't leave the Matrix and you can't leave the grounds that this chateaux is situated on" he said proudly.
"Your kidding kidding?! That's almost impossible!" Kit said fiercely.
The Mero was shaking his head.
"My dear young lady, I am a very good programme writer" he said happily and raised his hands, meaning for Kit to look at the Twins.
She didn't. Instead she gave him her most evil glare. The Merovingian had to look away and, despite everything, she smiled.
"If I'm stuck in here then it means that the Twins don't have to watch over me, right?" she asked the Mero who looked at her again.
"Unfortunately for you I have asked them to keep you safe" he smiled. But he got a bad response as Kit raised her voice and again fixed him with her evil glare.
"I'm not a child, I can look after myself" she said sternly and stood up.
"I'm going to test your programme. See you later" She walked out through the door, heading for the foyer and the double doors that she had walked through to enter the chateaux.
The Twins went after her as the Merovingian looked on happily. He didn't want to get on Kit's bad side but she seemed to have a short temper.
Kit was talking to herself by the time the Twins caught up with her. She was looking the main doors up and down sceptically.
"I wonder.. he said the grounds.. would that include the garden...or just the doors." Kit said slowly, trying to work out her question. The Twins stood behind her quietly. They weren't sure whether she had noticed they were there or not.
Kit reached out for the door handle. She grasped it and pulled the door open quickly. Nothing happened. She walked through and towards the huge garden.
Passing a large fountain, she reached the edge of the mountain. The garden was big, with a fountain in the middle and a tree to the right side, the mountain road joined to it to meet the side of the chateaux where a few cars were parked. Because it was all on the side of a mountain, the garden gave way at the end to a sheer drop of a few thousand metres.
Kit stood a metre away from the edge, not sure of her next course of action. The Twins passed her on either side and walked up to the edge, looking down. They let out a whistle, obviously surprised to see how high up they were.
Kit walked very slowly to the edge; she could feel a small hum coming from her and some invisible kind of force field. Kit put her hand out and ran it through the air. In its wake was left a streak of electric blue that disappeared when she dropped her arm.
Kit changed her sight so that she could see the code. There it was, like a dome over the whole chateaux going back into the mountain. She changed her sight back to normal.
She put her hand up again and pushed hard on the force field.
Suddenly, the whole thing lit up, showing the glowing blue dome. The blue spread up Kit's arm, then her torso, and soon her whole body was glowing blue. Without warning the blue vanished from Kit's body as she was thrown backwards from the edge of the garden.
Kit landed on her feet, metres away from where she had been standing. The Twins looked surprised - it must have taken the Merovingian ages to write that programme. It was well thought out , well constructed, as were all his creations.
"Hey! Albino boys! Move out of the way for a second!" Kit shouted. The Twins moved to one side as she raised both hands in front of her.
The dome glowed again, as well as Kit's hands. She closed her eyes and concentrated hard.
The bright blue parted slightly and made a gap big enough for a mouse to escape. Unfortunately, she knew it was no use, because as soon as her concentration dropped the gap would disappear (plus the fact that she wasn't the size of a mouse). Kit gave it up, dropping her hands down to her sides and breathing hard from the exertion.
She turned around to look up at the windows of the chateau. Just as she had expected, the Merovingian was looking at her with his own evil smile.
Kit turned round and sat down on the grass. The Twins stood behind her. She looked up at the sky and sniffed the air. It smelt clear but salty, and she could feel it buzzing slightly around her.
The Twins noticed the way she was looking up.
"You're not thinking of flying are you? Because you know that the force field covers the whole of the chateau," said one.
"It's only me that can't get through. Before I left the matrix I used to spend a lot of time in the garden. Hours on end just staring at the sky and wondering what it was going to do next.." she trailed off.
Kit stood up and laughed at the Twin's expressions. "I learnt that the weather is too predictable," she said and held up her hand in front of the Twins to count down the seconds.
"Five.four.three.two.one," she said and on zero there was a huge thunderclap. The sky burst open and it instantly began to rain, hard big raindrops soaking the three beings outside.
The Twins noticed that this seemed to have cheered Kit up because she laughed out loud and started to spin around in circles, staring up at the sky.
Within minutes all three of them were soaked through. The Twins didn't understand why the bouncy teenager was so happy and hoped that she would go in soon so that they could phase and be dry. Their dreadlocks were soaking up water.
Kit took the hairbands out of her hair releasing her bunches. She shook her head, sending water flying. She loved it when it rained.
The Twins got fed up after ten whole minutes of watching Kit jumping in puddles. She wasn't paying attention to them, which was good.
Kit was about to jump into an especially large deep puddle when she felt someone grab her waist. She was about to ask what the hell One was doing when he slung her over his shoulder.
One walked quickly toward the front door as Two followed him, trying to tell Kit to calm down because she was trying to get out of One's grasp while kicking the hell out of him.
"Let me go! I WANNA PLAY IN THE RAIN!" Kit shouted at both Twins.
Two shouted back at her "STOP ACTING LIKE A FIVE YEAR OLD!".
One walked through the door and Two closed it behind the both of them.
One dropped Kit onto a chair and stood straight. Both Twins phased and were instantly dry and smart looking once more.
Kit stood up, dripping all over the floor, and looked at the Twins in disgust. She turned on her heel and headed for her bedroom. She got halfway down the hallway when her wet trainers slipped on the marble floor. Her feet went from under her and she landed on her back in a small, but growing, puddle of water.
The Twins couldn't help but laugh. They walked up on either side of her. Two offered a hand and she sighed and took it.
Kit muttered something about albino twins and marble floors before carrying on down the hallway and disappearing through the door into her room.
*~*
"I was afraid that might happen," Morpheus said sadly. "Fortunately I don't think the run time for that programme is longer than a week."
"So we still let her make her own way out?" Neo asked. He was angry that they couldn't just go in there and get Kit.
"We will leave her be. I am sure that when the programme runs itself out she will leave the Merovingian and look for an exit," Morpheus said calmly.
Neo nodded and headed back towards his cabin where Trinity was waiting for news of the situation.
Morpheus sighed and sat back in his chair. He stared down at Kit, just lying there, helpless. He regretted letting her go to check on her mother in the Matrix. But that couldn't be helped now.
*~*
Kit was wearing dry clothes but her hair was still damp, resting lightly around her shoulders. Now she was wearing a red pair of denim shorts and a red Chinese top, red trainers and socks. Kit decided that she didn't look as good in white as the Twins did.
She was sitting in a chair and leaning heavily on a table. Her arms were crossed on the smooth white surface and her head rested slightly behind them so that the people around her could see only her eyes.
At the center of the table lay a black phone, like the ones used to exit the Matrix. This was what she had been staring at.
The Twins sat on the opposite side of the table. They were leaning back in their chairs; total boredom had taken over them. They had nothing to say or do.
Every now and again the phone rang, but when it did it glowed blue. Two was counting the minutes as One calculated how long it had been since the last time Kit moved..one hour and forty-seven minutes. All she did was blink.
Again the phone rang, but this time it didn't glow blue.
Kit shifted slightly. The Twins looked apprehensive. She reached slowly towards the phone, picked it up and put it to her ear.
"Hello, is the Merovingian there?" said a voice down the phone.
"WWWOOOOAAAAA!" Kit shouted, and slammed the phone back down on its hook.
The Twins looked over to Kit who had gone white (not as white as the Twins but still notably pale) - she was clearly panicked.
She knew that voice. Slow and full of hatred..SMITH!
