Day 10
Haldir: I'm telling you what happened today because Warious was still recovering in the Matrix's 'New York' hospital.
Um it says 9:45 am on the clock.
I've never been good at this 'modern technology' thing. I do know enough to type on the computer. Slowly.
You're probably wondering why I shot Warious. Let me explain but first I must begin when Warious and I went our separate ways...
I wandered around the city for some time. I tried to avoid the woman population, after one scantly clad lady pinned me in an ally way and tried to kiss me, and other things that are not appropriate to speak about.
At about late morning I saw the man Warious was to kill, walking with another person who had been in the picture Agent Smith showed us. I approached them and the encounter went something like this...
"Neo Anderson?" I asked.
Neo stopped walking and looked my way. "Who are you?" he asked.
"My name is Haldir. I have something to tell you; it is important."
Neo and his female companion led me to a quiet place.
"What do you have to say, Mr. Haldir?" the woman asked.
I quickly explained what had happened that morning. "And now my friend Warious seems to have lost her mind and is looking for you to kill you."
Neo looked at his friend. "What do you think Trinity?"
Trinity cast a seemingly neutral look in my direction before answering. "He seems to be honest, and you don't have elves walking around in the Matrix. It isn't in the program."
Neo looked at me. "Well Mr. Haldir, we will take your word for it, for now. But if push comes to shove, your friend may die."
My mouth was dry but I managed to say, "I understand."
"Come on; let's go catch up with the others. You may come too if you like." Neo told me.
I followed them out on to the street. At one point after we had crossed our seventh street, saw Warious. The gun Agent Smith had given her was out and pointed at Neo. I called out a warning to him. There was a loud bang, and all the people on the street went into a mad frenzy. Running around and screaming. Neo led us down an ally. I could feel Darth Warious closing in on us. She turned in the ally and started firing at Neo. The ally split and I went the opposite way Neo ran.
I strung my bow, fitted an arrow to the string, aimed and shot Warious' right arm. Quickly I followed up with an arrow in her right leg and caused one to graze her left side.
I was putting another arrow to my bow when she turned and looked at me. It was like looking at a diseased Warg. She looked as a wild ferocious animal. She turned back to see where her target had gone but Neo had dodged into a doorway. She turned back to me and I loosed my string. The arrow sped toward her. It hit her in the chest and she began to fall. I ran to catch her. As I held her our eyes met. "I'm sorry Warious." I told her and then she closed her eyes.
I thought she was going to die. Neo and Trinity helped me take Warious to the hospital. The healers said she would be fine. But I will have to wait and see for myself. They let me stay with her because I said I was her guardian.
Neo and Trinity left leaving me with Warious.
Now here I sit. By her side wishing she would sit up and talk to me. Even if she decided to scream in my ear I would have gladly put up with just to know she was alright.
Instead I am alone with my thoughts. I thought back to when she looked as a Warg. What had come over the normally controlled woman I had known? What was this new side of her that would mercilessly kill someone just because she was told to?
I looked down at Warious. I remembered how we had used to fight when we first met over the most ridiculous things. Like there was this one time when I decided to cook dinner. Unfortunately I did not pay attention to Maul when he said Warious was a particular person when it came to who cooked. I was preparing a stew for some rabbits I had shot that day, and it was almost done cooking to. Warious came home from her job, took one look at the stove and would have beaten me to a pulp. We ate what I made anyway and she seemed to have calmed down after she had eaten.
Then there was that time I saw her eating something and I asked what it was. "No!!! They are my Warheads! You can't have them! They are mine! All mine! Mwahahahaha!" I never bothered her when she was eating Warheads again.
Now that I think about it, those times were funny. Then I remembered how she started opening up to me, how it felt when we kissed, holding her in my arms at night. No I didn't do anything inappropriate with her! How dare you even think that!!! Oh wait. You're not a person, you're a computer. Never mind then.
When the clock said 5:00 pm, Agent Smith appeared.
He looked down at my Warious then up at me.
"Look at what you have done to your friend," he said gesturing towards Warious.
I looked away from him. "She was insane," I replied.
He rounded on me glaring at me. "You did this to her elf." He spat the last word out like a curse. "It is your fault that she lays here. You shot her. You have hurt her. You're the one to blame. If you had not interfered with her job she would be awake and she would not be lying here." He continued circling me as he accused me. I knew he was right.
The Agent finally stopped circling me and looked me in the eye. "You could be back where you both belong if you had just let her do her job." Then the Agent left.
I knelt by Warious' side and absently ran my fingers through her hair. I am overwhelmed by guilt. That is why I refuse to leave her side in this place. I will wait for her to wake up and then I will do whatever she tells me to. Even if she tells me to leave and never come back...

I would like to thank Elf with a lightsaber for being a faithful reviewer.
