Disclaimer: For the 15th and final time, I only own Girl! And the NetherCube, of course. *dances about yelling 'NetherCube' over and over*
I got reviews to answer!
Agent Josey: Well, thankfully you won't have to rampage my house.
Bloodredcherry: Heeheehee, read the A/N at the bottom. I think that you will be very pleased.
Alocin: Like I told Bloodredcherry, read the A/N.
Cat aka Moonlily: This is the last update, sadly. I'm glad you like it though!
Lady of Mirkwood: You have it printed out? O_o
Sentinelsquiddie: I'm glad that I am forgiven, and happy that you liked the chapter!
Last time, we finished the story. Everyone found out that Girl was not the One after all, but she told them that she knew that the real One's last name was Anderson. Then she had to leave and go home, and there the story ended *sadness*. Now for the tying-of-loose-ends chapter, which will be done in the style of movie credits! (you know, the like ones with little tiny animations on the side that tell you stuff that happens after the 'end') IMPORTANT NOTE: The first little…thingy contains spoilers to the 1st two movies (of course, if you haven't seen them you must be horribly confused by now). You have been duly warned, and cannot yell at me now. Also, I have not seen the 3rd movie, so that one may be somewhat incorrect, but whatever. Chapter 15 is brought to you by Various Other Good Movies, "We provide plenty of fun scenes and quotes to adapt to your own fanfic!"
Chapter 15: Epilogue
Pretend that this was a movie which just ended. The 'screen' fades to black, and the credits begin rolling
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Girl played by ieva
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
A picture comes up; it is Girl sitting in school, talking with two of her friends.
Friend #1: And furthermore, the Twins did not die, they ghosted! Even if they don't show up anymore after that!
Girl: The Twins…die? *thinks of One and Two*
Friend #1: NO THEY DIDN'T, THEY GHOSTED AT THE LAST SECOND!!!
Friend #2: Apoc and Switch and Mouse do die, though.
Girl: *eyes get big* They do?
Friend #2: Yeah, Cypher kills 'em.
Girl: Does Trinity die too?
Friend #1: Nope.
Girl: (looks at her feet for a bit, slightly creeped by the fact that several of the people she just met died, but then eyes light up suddenly) Does Smelrond die?
Friend #1: Nah. He sorta does in the first movie, but then he comes back.
Friend #2: Say, when did you learn so much about the Matrix? Did you see the movie finally?
Girl: *thinks fast* No, I, uh…picked it up from you guys. By the way…could you explain to me what the Matrix is? I've been wondering, you see…
The picture fades to be replaced by the next little credit thingy.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Trinity played by herself
Switch played by herself
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
A new picture comes up, of Trinity and Switch in the Construct.
Trinity: Apoc, I need a phone/address book of all the men with the last name Anderson in the world.
Switch: Are you sure this method is going to work?
Trinity: Sure it will. We'll just stalk them one at a time until we find the right one. After all, how many Andersons can there possibly be?
A phonebook that is 5 feet high and 3 feet wide and written in small font with super thin pages appears in front of them.
Switch: You were saying?
Trinity: Oh, shut up. We'll go in alphabetical order. Lessee…we'll start by stalking Abbin Anderson.
Switch: *thinking* We're going to be doing this for the rest of our miserable lives…
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Twins played by themselves
Keymaker played by himself
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
The new picture shows the Keymaker diligently working on his keys.
Keymaker: So bright, so beautiful…my Preciousssssessssss… *hears someone knocking on the door* Oh, now what do they want? *walks outside, but nobody seems to be there* Stupid vampires and their bloody pranks…*turns around to see the Twins standing there* Oh, hello.
Two: *grins evilly and pulls out NetherCube* Didn't you want to study this?
Keymaker: Why, yes, thank you for bringing it to me.
One: *also grinning evilly* Didn't you think it was simply fascinating when you dropped it on the floor and we got cut off from the real world?
Keymaker: Yes, quite fascinating. If you and the girl hadn't been so insistent on opening it, I would have kept it and spent so much time observing the ones inside the cube, but then you made me take them out, so… *Keymaker is sucked inside the NetherCube by Two*
Two: *grinning even more evilly* Now you can study the reactions all you want. And you can see what happens when we fascinatingly drop it on the floor. *drops*
Keymaker (from inside): AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAHHH!!!
One and Two: Meeheeheeheeheeheeheeheeheeheeheeheeheeheeheehee!
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Apoc played by himself
Mouse played by himself
Morpheus played by, you guessed it, himself
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
The next picture shows the Nebuchadnezzar docked at Zion, with Apoc and Mouse guarding the dock (I know this wouldn't actually happen, but just work with me here). Tank and Dozer walk up, although as they have not joined the crew yet, Apoc and Mouse do not know who they are.
Apoc: Hey, this dock is off limits to civilians.
Tank: So sorry.
Dozer: If we see some, we'll let you know. *both walk forward, but are stopped again by Apoc and Mouse*
Mouse: You're civilians!
Tank: Oh. Well, I have a question. Why does this dock merit special attention?
Apoc: The Nebuchadnezzar is the best ship there is, and nobody's smarter than Morpheus.
Dozer: I've heard of someone! *leans forward* The Architect.
Apoc: Heh, there isn't anyone real who's smarter than Morpheus.
Mouse: The Architect is real, though.
Apoc: No, no he's not.
Mouse: Yes he is, I saw him on an old viewscreen in the tunnels.
Apoc: You saw a program with a white suit who designed the entire Matrix and is so pigheaded that even his own creations go rebel against him?
Mouse: No…but he was wearing a white suit.
Apoc: Oh; so no program wearing a white suit couldn't possibly not be the designer of the entire Matrix and so pigheaded that even his own creations go rebel against him, and therefore couldn't possibly be anyone other than the Architect?
Mouse: Well…no…
Apoc: No. See, there's no real person who's smarter than Morpheus *turns to where Tank and Dozer where, but they are gone, and about to walk onto the ship*
Mouse: HEY! Stop right there!
Tank: *whirls around* Terribly sorry; it's just such a pretty scrap heap- *is kicked inconspicuously by Dozer* I mean ship!
Apoc: What're your names?
Dozer: Dozer.
Tank: Tank.
Apoc: Well then, Mister Dozer and Mister Tank, what's your purpose on this dock?
Mouse: And no lies!
Tank: We just came to apply for a bloody job here.
Apoc: Oh. All right then, I'll take you to Morpheus. Mouse, you stay here and keep the dock off limits to civilians.
Mouse: *muttering* I always have to guard the bloody dock…
The scene changes to a small office, with Morpheus sitting behind a desk. Apoc leads Tank and Dozer in, then leaves.
Morpheus: So, why are you here?
Dozer: We have come to join your crew.
Morpheus: Well, now…I have a question for the both of you then.
Tank: Fire away.
Morpheus: Do you have the courage and fortitude to stay true in the face of danger and almost certain death?
Dozer: Yes.
Tank: Yes.
Morpheus: All right, you're in. You can help Cypher with his job; we'll be able to keep him locked in his room more often.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Agent Smith played by himself
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
The new picture contains Smelrond and another Agent chasing after Mouse in some alley.
Smith: You cannot escape, Rebel!
Random Agent: There is no escape from us!
Smith: And once we've captured you, we'll torture you until you reveal the location of your captain, who we will then capture and torture until he reveals the code to get into Zion!
Mouse: You can't do that, Smith!
Smith: Why not?
Mouse: Because you're Moonbeam the Truce Fairy, remember?
Random Agent: What is he talking about, Smith? *turns to Smith, who has stopped dead in his tracks*
Smith: How could he have known about…
Random Agent: About what, Smith?
Smith: Nothing! Nothing at all!
Mouse: *escapes, laughing his head off*
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Clara played by megami no inazumi
Merovingian played by himself
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
The new picture shows Clara trying to teach the Merovingian how to play Ocarina of Time, and not having much luck.
Merovingian: Ze stupid leetle green boy won't let meh past!
Clara: That's because you need to do something else first, sir.
Merovingian: I don't care, he should let meh past because I am ze Merovingian!
Clara: Not in the game you're not.
Merovingian: Wait, zat gives meh an idea! I will simply reprogram ze game to let meh through now!
Clara: But sir, you still need to get your swor-
Merovingian: Not now, I am busy. Ah, zere we go!
Kokiri Guard Person (robot voice): All hail the Merovingian; he may pass and take all my Rupees while he's at it. *stands aside from path*
Merovingian: Zere, you see? Simple as zat *snaps fingers and (in the game) starts walking down the path.* I will be a mazter in no time at all…AAAAA!!! WHAT ZE HELL IZ ZAT SING?!?
Clara: That would be a Deku Scrub, sir. It's an enemy. You need to use your sword to kill it.
Merovingian: I DON'T HAVE A SWORD UND ZE ENEMY IZ KILLING MEH!!!
Clara: That was why the Kokiri wouldn't let you past. You needed to get a sword and shield first. There are pretty good reasons for most of the annoying things in this game, you know. Oh, too late, you were just killed.
Merovingian: Zat sing muzt have been ze boss, right?
Clara (thinking): That was the weakest monster in the whole bloody game, sir.
Merovingian: Now, how do I hold zis controller sing again?
Clara (thinking): I'm doomed.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Angnor played by Angus
Connus played by Connor
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
The picture changes again, and the new scene is of Angnor and Connus hanging upside-down from the roof of a cave. They are tightly wrapped in spider-thread except for their heads.
Connus: This is entirely your fault.
Angnor: How is it my fault?
Connus (sarcastic mimicking voice): 'Oh, lets code ourselves inside that new Lord of the Rings game! It'll be fun and exciting!' Well, this isn't very much fun, now is it?!?
Angnor: Well, it's sure exciting, right?
Connus: *tries to attack Angnor, but all that happens is some slight swinging motion*
Angnor: Uh, oh…
Connus: *still trying to swing to Angnor* Uh oh…is right! As soon…as I can…reach you…you're going…to be dead!
Angnor: Ummm…not that.
Connus: Well, what then?
Angnor: Shelob's back, and she's looking rather hungry…
Then, the 'screen' fades into black one last time, and you know that it's over completely. As you turn to leave, however, one last word appears in the blackness, written in bright green letters.

FIN
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
A/N: Yep, that's it. The end. It's over now. As I said up there, fin. But feel free to keep reviewing; reviews make me happy, and as of now they are 'special'. Since a bunch of you have asked me for a sequel, there WILL be one. *and there was much rejoicing* If you really, really, really want to see something in the sequel (that is NOT slash or romance or self-insertion), say so in your review, and I'll do my best to work it into the plot. ALSO, tell me if you want me to write it all at once and update every day, or write one chapter at a time and take longer between updates (if I write it all at once it will take at least a month). ALSO ALSO: The sequel will take place sometime between the end of Matrix and the beginning of Reloaded, meaning that some of the much beloved characters from this fic will be missing *cries*, but there will be some new faces too, like Neo (muahahaha…), new-and-not-much-improved Exile Smelrond, and some new Neb crew members that will come out of my own head (it's no fun if there's only three, after all). There's also no Dozer and no Tank, because for the life of me I can't work them into the plot properly. There, all finished with that. If you actually stuck with me this far, then I would like to tell you something………wait for it………oh, yes. May the Force be with you always, according to the Prophecy!!!
