Trinity still loves Neo!!!! Let's face it, who wouldn't?
There was a low groaning sound as the cargo door opened slowly, revealing a small sliver of light that
gradually grew until it revealed the three weather-worn travelers crew members of the Nubuccecanezer. Morpheus
stepped out first and a small group of men approached him.
"Captain Morpheus," one of them spoke.
"Commander Locke."
Neo glanced at Trinity who whispered to him while keeping her eyes on the men, "That's the counsel,
they're not too fond of Morpheus."
"How come?" Neo whispered back.
"Shhh," she silenced him, trying to look respectfully ahead.
"I take it you know why I'm here," Morpheus's face showed no emotion as he spoke to the hard faced
commander.
"You may have anyone you want on your crew- if they want to join. Find someone who does...and they're
yours."
Morpheus nodded, "I understand. If you won't give me any, I'll find some myself. Neo." Morpheus never
once turned around, even when addressing Neo.
"Yes sir?"
"I want you to come with me to speak to someone. Trinity- I understand you have business to take care of?"
She smiled, "With your permission, sir?" She knew that she must show Morpheus utmost courtesy in front
of the council, which meant calling him sir.
"Go ahead."
Trinity did all but run off. Neo watched her go, his heart sinking.
"Gentlemen," Morpheus tipped his head, "If you'll excuse us. Come, Neo." He shouldered past the men and
Neo walked briskly, trying to keep up with him and trying to avoid the stares he was receiving from the council.
*********************************
Trinity knew the door, the room, the hallway. She knew exactly where she was going. As an only child, she
never had any siblings to be close with, to share secrets and emotions. Now she had Neo- but Neo was more than a
brother to her...way more.
But Dez was- he was the brother she never had. She spent so much time with him that he had this sort of-
fraternal love for her. He considered her his sister and she thought of him as nothing more than a brother. Trinity had
a sinking feeling that Neo didn't see it that way, and she had to admit, she hadn't been giving him much attention
lately, and it would be the anniversary.
But Trinity found that she wasn't looking forward to seeing Dez as she was mostly just looking for stability.
Everyday her life was risked, Neo's was at stake, and she could never count on anything being there forever. But
seeing Dez would show her that some things can last, some things never change.
She paused at the door and knocked loudly, remembering his mother being somewhat deaf.
The door creaked open and a tired face appeared, "Trinity?"
"Is Dez home?"
The woman behind the door looked down, "Dez died a long time ago."
Trinity stared at her in disbelief, "What?"
*********************************
Apologies for such a short chapter. I really just wanted to clear up the fact that Trinity's feelings for Dez is
like a sister thinks of her brother. She still loves Neo, of course. (But he loves me (; )
