Matrix Fanfic
The Matrix: Crew Of The Athena
Chapter 7
"Good. Now I don't have to worry about you do I?"
"Not unless you want to!" Plug sighed. They were joking around while their captain could be in danger.
"Guys, get serious. If the captain gets infected, I'm going to have to pull the plug out on her. Dial turned very stern.
"She won't. Knowing her, she'll put up a good fight if they're going to try to turn her into a virus."
"Well then you guys better get to searching for clues as to where she might be." With that Plug hung up. Trigger put away his cell.
"Lets get to work you guys."
Ami's vision was blurred. She could just make out slits what she guessed were windows along the upper part of a large building. Sun shined into the room. She could feel tight grips on her arms and legs. Her memory came back. She remembered she had been fighting viruses' when one snuck up behind them and hit her, knocking her out. Then why was she feeling so groggy. Had they injected her with something? The building's walls were concrete.
The viruses' dropped her in front of what looked like a leather chair.
"Glad to see you," said a familiar voice.
"Who are you? What do you want with me?"
"My, my. So many questions, but I can answer one at a time. I shall allow you four and you've already asked two. For the second one, I wish to gain knowledge you have of the outside world and what it is like. For the first question." The leather chair spun around. In it sat someone with blonde hair and cold blue eyes.
"Dial!?"
"Not exactly. As you know, everything in the Matrix has a positive and a negative. I am his negative. I was once a program made to make sure that things ran properly in the Matrix. Then one day I seemed to grow tired. I felt myself grow weak. That's when I was to be deleted. Instead I fused with another program. As we know, if two programs don't fuse properly-."
"A virus occurs."
"Exactly. With my power to turn people into viruses' I created a small group, but I wanted more. I wanted to take over the Matrix and grow more powerful. That's why I began spreading my viruses'. I'm still on that conquest."
"Then why do you want information about the real world?"
"Ah, question number three. You see, while I was trying to take over the Matrix, I realized, this isn't real. What do I need it for? So then it dawned on me. If I could create enough viruses' I could overrun the real world with viruses'. That would throw everything into chaos. I could find out how to make my own Matrix. A Matrix within a Matrix. I could completely rule it."
"How exactly do you plan to get the information out of me? I'm not just gonna tell you of my own free will."
"I know this. You see, I plan on turning you into a virus like my servants. You see, they may seem stupid, but they're all linked to me. I know everything they know. Once I turn you into a virus I will gain all the knowledge I need to know."
"Your sick."
"That's enough chit chat. Take her off to the cells." Without a word they carried Ami to what looked like a jail cell. So they were in a jail! In the other cells were other people. They moaned to be let out, to be set free. Ami sat in the corner, wishing her friends were there with her.
Dial placed the gatling gun next to him on the bench. It had been hours and still nothing. They were lucky enough the agents hadn't found them.
"There's nothing here."
"There has to be. They can't just disappear. There has to be a footstep or something." Dial sighed. He leaned back and looked at the sky. It was hopeless. Ami was as good as gone now. NO! He wouldn't think like that. He would save his friend, even if it meant his own life.
"GUYS! I think I found something." Dial and Trigger rushed over.
"What is it?" Trigger held up a key.
"THAT'S NOT GONNA HELP US TRIGGER."
"Oh yes it will." Trigger pulled out his cell phone.
"Operator."
"Plug, can you tell me where this key came from? I want to know everything about this key in about five minutes." There was silence for a few moments as Plug scanned the key.
"It's originated from some police station. Probably N.Y.P.D. building. That's the structure of their key. Try there."
"Another thing. I need a crash course in how to hot wire a car," he said eyeing the Trailblazer parked along the curb of the park. Plug smiled.
"One crash course coming up." In a matter of seconds Trigger learned how to hot wire a car.
"Lets go." The three got into the Trailblazer. Trigger hot wired it and Dial drove it.
"You know where your going?"
"You kidding me. We had to bust Viper out of there before. That's a memorable moment so I don't forget where it is." The Trailblazer shifted gears and sped faster.
"Do you mind slowing down?"
"Yes I do. Our captain is in there and I'm not down shifting for anything." The Trailblazer jerked to a stop in front of the abandoned N.Y.P.D. building. The three got out, Dial holding to his gatling gun.
"Lock and load boys. We're going in!"
