The Matrix: Rebellion

Chapter 3: School trip
"In this dock, hundreds of soldiers lost their life's by the machines in the last war between man and machine in attempt to save Zion from being destroyed," Neo read of the remembrance statue in the dock while was on a field trip.
"Neo," Jess called too him, "Come on you're going to be left behind if you don't keep up!"
--
Not too far away, Morpheus, Link, Kid and a girl called Yoko (The girl from Beyond in the Animatrix) walked off their ship having just come back from The Oracle.
She had told Morpheus want he may have to do in the part of the new prophesy that has been predicted.
Suddenly Morpheus stopped as soon as he heard Jess's call for Neo, and looks in the direction it is coming from.
He sees Neo rejoining his class. Recognising exactly who he is, Morpheus starts to walk over to confront him, but he is interrupted by captain Niobe.
"Morpheus welcome back," She greeted. "So, what's the news from The Oracle?"
After Morpheus explains to Niobe what was said to him, he turns back to where he last saw the boy he was interested in. But only to find he was no longer they're anymore.

"Tank, isn't that our dad?" Jay asked her twin brother while pointing directly at Link.
"Oh yeah, it is. He must just be back from a mission," Tank said to his twin sister.
Tank and Jay are the son and daughter of Zee and Link. They are both 18 years old. They were born a year before Reloaded starts.
Jay looks quite like her mother, while Tank looks quite like the uncle he was named after.
"Do you think we should go over and say hi?"
"No, don't think we should really disturb him while he's working."
"Okay," Jay replied before turning her attention to Neo, who had just rejoined the group. "Well, look who decided to finally join us."
"Sorry, I got a bit distracted," Neo, answered.
"Okay class lets keep it moving," The teacher interrupted.
All of the class boarded a ship just a few minutes before it took off.
The class were on a trip to see how a crew works on a ship; you know things like how a ship operates, what kind of programs they use, what they do in the Matrix, etc.
While on the ship, half the class (including Neo, Jess and Jack) were experiencing what it is like being plugged into a training program. While the other half who cannot be plugged in (people like Tank and Jay) stayed in the real world and watch their actions on the screen.
One they had finished the program, the captain of the ship was the first out to tell the operator and the crew to get ready to go into the Matrix. While the people who were still plugged in, were being unplugged one by one.
When everybody but Neo (who hasn't yet been unplugged because he was the last one) was out, the operator started setting up a place for the crew to go into the Matrix.
Meanwhile, two students from the class were starring at the screens beside Neo with great confusion.
"What do you think it is?" One of them said.
"I'm not quite sure, it might be to show if Neo is alive and if he obtains any injuries while inside a program or in the Matrix," The other one said.
"Oh, but then what's this for?" He said while pointing at one of the screens.
"I don't know, want to find out?"
"Yeah!"
One of them begins to reach out to investigate what it is for.
Suddenly, one of the crew saw what they were about to and rushes over to stop them from doing it.
"Wait! Don't touch that…" He yelled before he accidentally tripping over a couple of wires that were in his way. He fell right into the two students, causing one of to bump into the screen, which activated the thing that they where going to find out, just before he fell backwards.
--
Meanwhile, poor Neo was still waiting to be plugged out of the program. He was standing in a plain white room, which never seemed to end.
Suddenly a pain struck inside his head, kind of like a sort of pain you would get when you have a really bad headache. He held his head between his hands and tried very hard not to scream or cry from the pain.
This lasted a few seconds, after this the pain had suddenly gone and Neo opened his eyes in confession of what just happened. However he slowly came to realise he was not in the place he was a few seconds ago.
--
Back in the real world.
As the rest of the crew helped the three people who had fallen get up on their feet. While Neo's friends gathered around him.
"Neo, is he okay?" Jess asked the operator examined one of the screens beside Neo.
"Oh my god," He whispered.
"What?" Jack asked.
"He's not dead is he?" Jay questioned, fearing the worst.
"No, much worse," The operator replied, "He has been sent into the Matrix."
