Back on the Nebuchadnezzar, Evangel was clutching Horizon's hand. He was worried about her. She had seized a few moments earlier, and she wasn't moving. Trinity stood with Morpheus, watching him from the control center.
"He looks horrible. If she dies, I guarantee he won't be with us too long afterwards," Trinity said.
"I seem to recall a moment in our past when you did the same exact thing," Morpheus said.
Fifteen minutes later, there came an incoming call. Morpheus answered it. "Neo, I can't believe you went out there," he said. Then he said, "Okay, there's one on Leonard Street, in front of the bakery there." The connection ended.
"So Neo's coming?" Trinity asked.
"Yeah, and he got Horizon too."
"That's a relief."
They stood by until Horizon's eyes opened and she gasped. "Oh my God..." she said. She tried to move, but found that she was in pain. There wasn't a bullet wound, but she was feeling the effects. A few moments later, Neo's body shifted from its motionless state. He helped take her to her room. There, Evangel and Horizon were alone. She lay in bed with him next to her. He held her gently.
"What was it like there, alone?" He asked.
"I was scared. I was in the hands of the Agents... you know they could have had their way with me."
"I stayed by your side, I didn't want to let go. The plug would have been pulled on you, but I just couldn't let that happen. I believed in Neo, that he could save you."
She gave him a weak smile. "You shouldn't have worried about me. I was scared, but if I was to be killed, I knew it was written in the stars above. Everything that happens has a purpose for happening. I only wanted to live to say that I loved you one last time."
