Day 9

I woke up in what looked like a dorm room.

"What?" I yelled.

"Ouch. Could you please lower your voice?" Haldir said. "I'm right next to you."

"Sorry H."

"H?"

"Your new nickname."

Haldir sighed and got up. "Where are we?"

"I don't know." Then I realized something. "I CAN'T FEEL THE FORCE!!!!"

Haldir covered his ears. "Please not so loud!!!!"

"Sorry," I whispered.

"Now that you mentioned it," Haldir said, "I can't feel the earth either."

"Let's go outside and see where we are." I suggested heading for the door.

"Wait," Haldir said. He readjusted his quiver. "Ok. Now we can go."

Rolling my eyes I opened the door to see a man on the other side of the door.

He was tall with dark hair and wore sunglasses.

"Who are you?"

"Miss Warious. My name is Agent Smith. Welcome to the matrix."

"The Matrix? I thought that was a movie?"

"No it's not. You are here for a purpose." Mr. Smith said.

"What purpose?" Haldir asked confused, "What is the Matrix?"

"This is the Matrix, Mr. Haldir. Your purpose is to destroy Neo Anderson and his friends." Smith held up a picture. A group of people were gathered around a telephone. "We have brought you here to kill every last one of them."

I took the picture and went into hunting mode. "Where were these people last seen?" I asked.

The agent nodded, there was a flash of light and we were standing on a busy street in downtown New York. "They were last seen here. Watch out for the other agents, and if you have any further questions, I am everywhere." The Agent handed me a gun, then disappeared into a crowd of people.

"That man looked a lot like Lord Elrond." Haldir said to me.

I shook my head. "Let's get started." I said moving down the street.

"Oi! Wait a minute Warious. Why do we have to kill these people? I don't want to kill anyone." Haldir said blocking my path.

"You aren't the one who is going to kill them, Haldir. I am. Pushee Wumpa!" I shoved past the elf and started my search.

12:00 pm

I've been searching for five hours now and haven't found any trace of them. I am beginning to feel sorry for leaving Haldir behind. Maybe I should go look for him...Nah.

Then I saw Neo and a female friend, who was in the photo, cross to my side of the street.

I prepared to shoot them with the gun Agent Smith had given me but then I saw Haldir walking with them.

Do I shoot? I hesitated. Haldir turned his head in my direction and saw me. 'Shit!' I thought. I raised my gun at Neo Anderson and shot, but it was too late. Haldir warned them in time and now the crowd on the street was in a mad panic.

I followed the direction I had seen them go in and down a darkened ally.

There they are! I shot the gun at them trying to avoid my friend. They split up and I followed Neo, firing my weapon at him. Then, when I had him cornered, I felt a sharp pain in my upper firing arm. Then my right leg started hurting immensely. I felt something graze my side. It was an arrow.

I turned to look behind me. Haldir had his bow out and strung. I watched as he knocked an arrow to the string.

I turned back to see where Neo was. He had escaped and I couldn't see him anywhere. I looked back at Haldir. He let the string go and time seemed to slow as the arrow sped towards me. The arrow went through my chest and I stumbled back from the force.

Haldir caught me as I fell, letting his bow clatter to the ground. Our eyes met and dimly I heard him say, "I'm sorry," before everything went black.
