DISCLAIMER: The Matrix is not mine, but Evie is, so stay away or risk the wrath of Hmm, let me think about that one

Evie sat in the front seat of the large sedan that Apoc had parked underneath the bridge. They were waiting for Neo. The Agents had found him, and they were there to bring him to Morpheus.

" Trin, do you see him?" Evie asked. Trinity looked out the rear window from where she was sitting in the backseat.

" Not yet," Trinity answered.

" It certainly is pouring," Switch muttered from where she was sitting next to Evie. Rain was streaming of the bridge, creating a thick curtain of water, making it difficult to see much of anything.

" I know," Evie muttered. She had always liked the rain, and at the moment she wanted nothing more than to unroll the window and put her hand out. But she could not.

" Do you see him?" she asked two minutes later. Switch heaved an exasperated sigh and shook her head. Evie grinned, knowing she was kidding. Trinity suddenly stiffened, and through the think curtain of rain, Evie could make a walking figure out. It was Neo. Evie could see that he was very tall, with dark hair.

" Get in," Trinity commanded him sharply from her open door. He did, and Apoc began to roll out from under the bridge. Evie didn't know how he could see, the windows were so foggy. Evie turned in her seat so she was facing Neo. In an almost leisurely fashion, she pulled out a handgun and pointed it at him, her hand resting across the back of her seat.

" What the heck is this?" he asked, indicating Evie's gun.

" It's necessary for our protection, Neo," Trinity replied in a calm voice.

" Don't make me use it, I really don't fancy spilling your mess all over the seats," Evie muttered with a hint of an impish grin. Trinity shot her a withering glare, and the grin disappeared and was replaced by a scowl that made Evie look two years younger.

" Protection from what?" Neo asked, his eyes never leaving the gun.

" From you," Trinity answered as she reached down to the floor of the car and came up with a strange piece of machinery.

" Take off your shirt," Switch said from the front seat. Neo looked back and forth from Evie's gun to the machine in Trinity's arms.

" What? Why?" he asked suspiciously.

" Stop the car," Switch said, and Apoc obeyed.

" Listen to me, coppertop!" Switch snarled, " We don't have time for 'twenty questions right now! There is only one rule. Our way, or the highway." Evie looked out into the rain, wondering what Neo would choose.

" We can't let him leave!" Trinity exclaimed as Neo opened the door.

" Neo, you have to trust me!" she continued.

" Why?" he asked again.

" Because you've been there, Neo. You've been down that road and you know exactly where it ends. And I know you don't want to be there," Trinity finished. Neo considered this for a second, then closed his door.

" Good choice," Evie muttered. Neo pulled his shirt off.

" Lie back," Trinity commanded.

" What is this thing?" he asked as he obliged.

" We think you are bugged. Just relax," Trinity answered as she moved the machine into position. Evie gritted her teeth and lowered her gun a bit. She herself had never been bugged, but she knew that it was not a pleasant thing to go through. The machine whirred as it suctioned itself to his belly. Neo yelled as a something underneath his skin began moving. Evie looked away briefly.

" Come on," Trinity muttered. Evie heard a splat and turned to see the remains of the bug in a glass tube on the machine.

"Got it," Trinity said as she pulled out the tube and threw it out the window.

" Now we go to Morpheus," Evie muttered as the car moved on through the night.

I got bored, so I figured I would update. I try to get most of the lines right, which is easier because I have a script on the Internet, but don't freak out if it isn't right. I sometimes change it if I think another way of saying things is in order or I need to fit Evie into the story. I don't know when the next chapter will be up, but please review this one.
