Trinity and Neo sat at the mess hall's table along with everyone else
aboard the Neb.
The silence that filled the hall was only broken by the slurping of Link,
who couldn't seem to get enough of the gooey crap into his stomach.
Disgusting.
Neo sat across from Trinity, Morpheus sat across from Niobi, and Ghost sat across from Link. No one could figure out anything to talk about.
Finally, Morpheus broke the silence with a sigh.
"Everyone, last night I was contacted by Zion. We are to report there today for two weeks of shore leave." His statement was completed with the bowing of his head.
Instantly, energy burst into the inhabitants of the room. While they were happy to be going home, they couldn't help but wonder at the reason for their commanded shore leave.
Neo spoke up.
"Morpheus, why do they want us back so soon?" He had a questioning glint in his eyes.
Morpheus once again sighed. He had obviously been forced to do this against his will and better judgement.
"They want me to bring you all back so that you can have a nice rejuvenating rest considering the recent events taking place" he nodded in Trinity's direction. "And they are going to be holding a council meeting sometime this coming week. They want to discuss game plans for how to keep the sentinels at bay, until we are able to come up with a way to ensure the end of the war. They also want to talk about what happened in the matrix." This time he nodded at Neo.
"They want to know what happened in there Neo."
Neo nodded. He had figured that there would be much questioning of what went on, that he so curiously refused to talk about, other than to Trinity. She was the only one who knew what had happened. She was his confidant.
Link spoke up. "Well I guess this is my cue to get ready for the long journey back home. See you guys in about four hours. Until then, get some sleep."
Morpheus nodded at Link's statement, encouraging them all to get some rest. He thought that most likely, there would be a lot of questioning and counciling right when they got there.
Neo and Trinity locked eyes and got up at the same time to wash their dishes out, and headed to their cabin. They entered and immediately rid themselves of their clothes. No, they wouldn't make love until they got to Zion. There was just something about the experience there. Something that they figured would make it so much better if they waited for it.
Instead, they faced each other.
Neo gently kissed Trinity and she responded with a contended sigh and moved in to nestle herself into his body.
Neo yawned and sighed "See you in a little bit Trin."
She smiled and grunted, and both immediately drifted off into an uninterrupted slumber.
