A/N: Uh.I think Neo goes blind at the end of revolutions. Dammit. Oh well,
this is an AU. And, just as an add on to that little note, let me explain
to whoever's reading a little something: Neo has depression. I know, its
sad. Now, what does depression usually lead to?
Chapter 3.
I slowly walked through the dark corridors, my footsteps making echoes. I needed to find it, again. I knew what I was doing was wrong. I knew it, but I needed it. Maybe this was what the oracle was talking about, when she said not to do the thing that feels right. But this didn't feel right. It felt horribly wrong.
The light was blinding, but it was everywhere. When I first came here, I was confident, but scared. I thought I would die, but now that doesn't seem to matter. Now I know, I've got nothing to lose.
"I have something to ask of you." I called.
No answer.
"I..I need you to bring someone back..someone who is gone..someone who is dead. Can you do that?"
Still nothing. All the hope within suddenly washed out. It was over, my last hope of Trinity's return was gone.
"Please..I, I loved her, this girl. Trinity. She died.please, I know you can do this!" I cried, on the verge of tears.
Finally, the blinding light answered me back.
"I cannot. The dead are meant to die. The dead are meant to lie. Grievances cannot change that."
It was right. The Source was right, the dead are meant to stay dead. I just need to get over her.
"I just need to make the pain stop.." I whispered.
"However, we can do that." The Source answered back.
I looked up, surprised at the answer. "How?"
"The termination of certain emotions. Seek them, then destroy. A simple procedure. Delete the emotion sadness, and all that begets it."
I hesitated with my answer, thinking over the 'procedure'. It sounded like a lobotomy.I didn't want that. I didn't want to forget Trinity altogether, I just wanted to get over her.
"You will not forget your loved one. But do you still wish to remember her as a dying body? Remember the good things only, is that not what you want?"
Yes, that was true. To remember the good things. But you can never trust a machine. So what do I do?
"Its choice." I said. " I have to choose between Trinity..and" What exactly? "Something I'm not even sure of."
I just don't know. what if its telling the truth? What if it's a trick? What if..
What if.
A/N: AH HA! Cliffhanger! So my non-existent friends, what will Neo do? What would you do in this situation? Review and find out!
