A/N: Chapter 5 is here! Yay! Let's get right to it!! Oh, but beware of inside jokes (yeah, I know it kinda takes away from some of the funniness, but I just can't help myself!) Must...*twitch* resist *twitch*...And oi! Sorry it took so long! I've been recovering from my vacation! LOL.

------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Chapter 5

That spiffy car that all the weird people were in pulls up to a big building. After climbing a big winding staircase, they reach a door. Oohh, ahhh, wow!

TRINITY: This is it. The door to the...ROOM WITH A GUY IN IT! Bum bum buuuuuuuum! Let me give you one piece of advice: be honest. He knows more than you can imagine. Plus, he can smell a lie. He says they smell really bad.

NEO: Wow.

TRINITY: Yep. Oh, and he can smell fear, too.

NEO: But how does he do that?

TRINITY: He can smell fear and lies...through THE GIGANTIC GAP IN HIS TEETH!

*yet another lightning strike thing and a big thunder boom*

NEO: How do you do that?!

TRINITY: Magic. Yep. Did you notice how I created a big lighting bolt outside the building to create a dramatic effect and illuminate the building when looking up on it so that it looked more ominous and scary-like?

NEO: Yeah, sure, whatever you say.

TRINITY: Okay, go inside. That's what the door is for: opening.

NEO: What about closing?

TRINITY: I thought the seagulls were used for closing doors?

NEO: HOW DID YOU KNOW I HELPED MY RETARDED LANDLADY TRAIN SEAGULLS TO CLOSE DOORS?!?

TRINITY: Umm...lucky guess?

NEO: Oh, okay.

TRINITY: Besides, I said that you would be the one who will open the door. *opens door*

NEO: Heeeeeey, I thought you said I was gonna open the door!

TRINITY: Too late. Unless you have a seagull to close it again so you can go about your door opening.

NEO: No, I don't...

TRINITY: Oh well. Look on the bright side; in the next movie you'll go down a hallway with a bazillion doors to open! Of course...you'll go through the one that'll get you trapped on top of a mountain...what luck. Or was it stupidity? I'm not sure.

MORPHEUS: *facing window* Are you done yapping yet? I need you to concentrate fully on making my turning-around-to-face-Neo thing more dramatic!

TRINITY: *sighs* Fine...go ahead.

MORPHEUS: *turns around*

*again with the lightning strikeyness and the thunder clappyness*

MORPHEUS: I LOVE THAT! YAY FOR TRINITY! Oh. *composes self* At last. Welcome, Neo. As you know doubt have guessed...I AM MORPHEUS! MWAHAHAHAHAHAHA!!!

NEO: *sniffles* I thought you were my father!

MORPHEUS: No, Neo. We've been over this before.

NEO: Oh. *excitedly* Then are you Pam Anderson?!

MORPHEUS: No.

NEO: ...Angelina Jolie?

MORPHEUS: Neo, do I look like any of the people you just listed? More importantly, perhaps, is the question of whether I have gigantic breasts or not.

NEO: Hmm...Nope. You must be some cryptic old bald guy with a gigantic gap between his teeth!

MORPHEUS: Yes! That's exactly who I am!

NEO: Oh. *extends hand* It's an honor to meet you.

MORPHEUS: *takes Neo's hand and does more of a "manly holding of hands" than a handshake* No, the honor's all mine.

NEO: NO, IT'S MINE!

MORPHEUS: NO! MY HONOR! MINE MINE MINE MINE MIIIIIIINE!!!!

TRINITY: *clears throat*

MORPHEUS: Oh, right. Just sit down.

NEO: What if I don't wanna sit down?

MORHPEUS: No, you're supposed to sit down now, then when you see the Oracle you can use that one on her and see what happens.

NEO: Oracle?

MORPHEUS: *waves hand* Sleep.

NEO: *falls asleep*

MORPHEUS: When you wake up, you will not remember anything I just said. *waves hand* Now wake up.

NEO: I would, but I can't see your hand waving while I have my eyes closed. Dur.

MORPHEUS: Fine. *smacks Neo* Wake up, dammit! Do you remember anything, Neo?

NEO: F-Father?

MORPHEUS: *sighs* *waves hand* Sleep.

NEO: What if I don't wanna?

MORPHEUS: Too bad. Now sleep.

NEO: But Morpheus, I dun wanna sleep! You were gonna tell me a story that will confuse me and overuse some stupid Alice in Wonderland metaphor!

MORPHEUS: ...Okay, fine. I imagine that right now you feel like Alice, tumbling down the rabbit hole.

NEO: Hmm...No. No, not really. I feel like a middle-aged hacker dude talking to some cryptic bald guy with a monstrous gap between his teeth about whether or not I feel like a little girl falling down a hole.

MORPHEUS: Okay, whatever you just said. You have the look of a middle-aged hacker guy who accepts what he sees because you think you'll suddenly sober up. Well, you'd be WORN G! I mean...wrong! [A/N: Only my friends would get that]. Well, okay, it's not that far from the truth.

NEO: But I don't remember getting drunk...I mean, I went to that club, and...

MORPHEUS: Do you believe in fate, Neo?

NEO: No.

MORPHEUS: Why not?

NEO: Because I don't like the idea that I'm not in control of my life, even though I'm really not. I mean, hey, it's not like I commit all those computer crimes on purpose! *cough cough*

MORPHEUS: *getting really close to Neo's face and pointing* I know EXACTLY what you mean. *sits down* Let me tell you why you're here, Neo.

NEO: OHH! I KNOW! BECAUSE IN GOT INTO THAT CAR!

MORPHEUS: Exactly. YOU WIN!

NEO: Cool, what do I win?

MORPHEUS: NOTHING!

NEO: YAY!

MORPHEUS: Actually, you're here because you know something. What you know, you don't know, but you know I know that you know you know something. But you feel it. You've felt it your entire life. You know it's there, it's like a splinter in your mind and it's making you mad.

AUDIENCE: Wouldn't he just be in severe pain if he had a splinter in his mind?

MORPHEUS: HEY! It's a metaphor! Get used to it!

AUDIENCE: *collective gulp*

MORPHEUS: (continuing) It's this feeling that brought you to me. This undeniable lust...

NEO: o_O

MORPHEUS: ...for knowledge.

NEO: Oh. But that wasn't in the script.

MORPHEUS: I know. I'm improvising. Do you know what I'm talking about?

NEO: The Matrix.

MORPHEUS: Yay! Okay, I'll tell you...sorta...The Matrix is everywhere, even here in this very room. You feel it when you go to the bathroom, when you have a colonoscopy, when you pass a stone, when you...

NEO: That's just disgusting.

MORPHEUS: I know! Isn't it cool? It's the world that has been pulled over your eyes to blind you from the truth: there is no spoon.

NEO: That's not your line! It's the spoon kid's! And don't you mean...?

MORPHEUS: NO! I DON'T MEAN WOOL! THAT JOKE IS STARTING TO GET OLD AND IF THE AUTHOR USES IT HE WILL BE WRITING AN UNORIGINAL PARODY!

NEO: Oh. What truth were you talking about, anyway?

MORPHEUS: You are a slave. You were born into bondage, like everyone else...

NEO: You do NOT want to know what I am thinking.

MORPHEUS: (ignoring Neo) ...here, just take a pill. Take the blue one, you wake up in your bed with a severe hangover and no memory of what has taken place. Take the red pill, and you will be stoned for all eternity.

NEO: *reaches for the red pill*

MORPHEUS: Remember...all I am offering is the truth. And maybe some apple pie.

NEO: *swallows red pill*

MORPHEUS:*smiles evilly* Follow me!

CUT TO: ROOM WITH LOTS OF COMPUTERS AND STUFF

MORPHEUS: Apoc, are we online?

APOC: Almost.

MORPHEUS: Time is always against us. Sit in the damn chair. I mean...please, take a seat.

SWITCH: *takes Neo's jacket*

NEO: What is it with you and getting me to take off my clothes?! *sits in chair*

As Trinity started putting those little pad things that hospitals use onto Neo, everyone else pretended they were doing something important. Cypher looked through some weirdo goggles, Apoc looked at some computer screens, and Morpheus put a phone onto a freaky machine thing.

MORPHEUS: That pill you took was part of a trace program. It disrupts some signal thingy and lets us pinpoint your location.

NEO: But I'm sitting right here!

MORPHEUS: Yeah, true...

CYPHER: HEY! YOU WERE SUPPOSED TO LET ME SAY MY LINE!

MORPHEUS: Fine...

CYPHER: Yay! Buckle your seatbelt, Dorothy, because Kansas is going bye bye.

*lightning/thunder*

MORPHEUS: TRINITY!

TRINITY: Sorry, couldn't resist.

NEO: WHY DO ALL YOU PEOPLE COMPARE ME TO LITTLE GIRLS WHO GET STUCK IN NONEXISTENT FANTASY WORLDS?!

MORPHEUS: Because it's fun. Hey, the mirror's fixed!

NEO: Cool! Lemme smear my fingerprints all over the glass! *touches mirror* Heeeey!

Neato special effects, huh? Of course, it's not very neato for Neo (hey, that rhymed!), because it's obviously some very cold liquid stuff. And it's gonna kill him if the crazy people don't do something!

NEO: C-c-cc-c-c-cc-cccc-c-c-c-c-cccc-cccc-cc-c-ccccccc-cold...it's ccc-c-cc-cc-c-c-c-c-c-c-c-c-c-ccccc-c-c-c-c-c-cold.

MORPHEUS: It's not THAT cold...*pulls out cell phone and dramatically hits one button* Tank, we'll need a signal soon.

NEO: No kidding. This nasty stuff's about to go into my mouth!

TRINITY: I got a fibrillation, whatever that is.

MORPHEUS: Apoc, location.

APOC: Targeting almost there.

TRINITY: He's going into arrest!

Hey, look! It's all those dead cops from the beginning putting Neo into handcuffs while he's having a heart attack!

TRINITY: Not THAT kind of arrest!

APOC: I got him! Go me! I AM THE IKARUGA CHAMPION!

MORPHEUS: Why are you playing Ikaruga? You're looking for Neo's signal thing.

APOC: Oh. Okay, got him.

MORPHEUS: NOW, TANK, NOW!

TANK: What?

MORPHEUS: Do your little take-a-person-out-of-the-Matrix-and-into-their-little-slime-pod thing!

TANK: Oh. Don't I need his signal?

MORPHEUS: I thought you said you got his signal!

NEO: Aaaaaaany time now.

TANK: Oh, I thought you were talking about the Playboy channel on satellite. Because I got that.

MORPHEUS: COOL! What's on now?

TRINITY: *clears throat*

MORPHEUS: Oh, right. Tank, get NEO'S signal and do your thing.

TANK: What thing?

MORPHEUS: That thing you do.

TANK: Hey, I like that movie!

MOPRHEUS: Oh, just get Neo out of the Matrix.

TANK: Oh, why didn't you ask me that in the first place? That's easy!

NEO: Finally!

Neo does his annoying screamy thing that gets all distorted. The screen's all dark for a minute, then the slime pod thing comes up. Lovely.

------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Next chapter: "Ahh! He's naked!" and a LOT more waking up.

A/N: As some of you probably noticed, I kinda twisted a joke from Hobbit-eyes's parody, "The Matrix Madness". You know, the part where it takes Tank forever to get the signal? Lucky for me, I managed to make it more original than copied. I didn't do the joke intentionally, mind you; apparently this is a "great minds think alike" moment! Oh, and I managed to get through this with only one inside joke! Yay!

And thanks to the bestest reviewers ever:

deke-core: Thanks for reading it! It's funny...in thinking about jokes for future chapters, I thought about the "my name is Eon" thing. Great minds DO think alike!

Trigger2: Glad you liked it so much! Just DO promise me not to wet yourself, I've already had a reviewer do that *remembers Trinity-In-Black*

Ashy: Yep, perfectly happy. Hey, don't blame ME for being behind on your summer reading...blame the people at Eastside for making you read such crappy books! And there's no way I'M gonna do it for you...I'm enjoying being the only one that doesn't hafta do summer reading. AND YOU DON'T KNOW WHAT GALAGA IS? *gasp* It's one of those really old arcade games, you know, like from the early 80's? You fly around in a spaceship and shoot aliens. And there's no way in hell I'm gonna read that scary fic with the scary URL...it's just...WRONG!

dragoonknt: Thanks! Wow, Mad Magazine? Never even considered it. Glad you think I'm funny enough for it!

Cattie: Ah, six months, four years, same diff, lol. Forgive me, I've only seen the Matrix: Reloaded once! And that was a long time ago! And I tend to forget the little things like that...all I cared was that it was part of the Matrix story and it was continuing on. Oh, whatever. And I'm glad you liked it!

Hobbit-eyes: I'm glad you think that way, because as I said, I used another one! Well, sorta. I think I changed it around enough. Anyway...I find the way Smith laughs in Revolutions to be excessive and annoying. But he IS stoopid!

Nightwriter: I get a Lint of Recognition, too?! I feel so special! *sniff* I'd like to thank everyone for reading and making this possible! Now get the hell of my lawn! *turns on sprinklers*

Destiny Chaser: Glad you liked it! And I think "sorta" is a major understatement!

Selina: Don't take this the wrong way, but you must have a lot of asses to keep laughing them off like that! I'll check out the group when I get the chance (and I would've done it sooner, but I've been busy getting back into the groove of things at home after returning from my very long vacation).

kaitou: Yes, you must sign in. Hey, while you're at it you can write a .hack fic! LOL. And it seems that one of my review pages is fixed, but the other still makes you scroll. How annoying.

Okay, everyone...I'm just gonna come out and say it...REVIEW!
