A phone rang in the distance of Horizon's mind. Her eyes were wide open, and she was running through the empty streets and alleyways. She had to find that phone and get out of the Matrix before they – the Agents – found her. She felt that their presence was near, so she tried as hard as possible to silently escape. She turned a corner and heard a familiar voice behind her.

"Horizon!"

She spun around. It was Evangel, and he took her in his arms and kissed her. "I'm so glad I found you! I was so worried. I thought you might not have been able to escape the Agents." She was so happy to be with him, but there was a chill in the air as the phone kept ringing. He turned to her. "What's wrong?"

"You hear that? Let's get out of here!"

He didn't move, he didn't seem like himself. She could feel him, he was... cold, so cold. Horizon backed away from him, but he didn't let go of her. He was overpowering her, keeping her with him. She looked into his eyes and saw the truth. It was not him.

She got the strength to break his grip. He was puzzled. "Why are you doing this Horizon? You're acting strange." She reached into her pocket and got out a gun. "Horizon, you're disturbing me. Put that away."

"No, Evangel, I can't."

He grabbed her wrist and said, "Don't be silly." Before her eyes he morphed into his true self, Agent Smith. She knew it all along.

"Don't be silly," he reiterated with a smug look on his face. She didn't hesitate to pull the trigger.
