A tall man in black stood on a building gazing at the matrix, his clothes
blowing in the wind, making him look ever so majestic. His dark black
sunglasses covered his eyes, showing no emotion what so ever.
What is my purpose? Neo thought. The machines had told him that his purpose was to obey them, his creators, and he did. But to him, it seemed like there was something more, and if obeying the machines was what he needed to do to find out, then so be it.
Neo looked out and gazed around the city. He read and observed the coding, taking in every detail and smirked. This was his world. His world. He could do whatever he wanted with it. And he loved it. The sense of power didn't get to him though, it just made him happy, deep inside he loved the matrix. It was a part of him. Not that he hated to go into the real world; just the matrix felt more like home to him. Oh, sure there was plenty to discover in the machine city, but watching over the matrix was his job, and he intended to do so.
But what was it? This thing that was missing from him. Oh well, his purpose would son tell him. Whenever that would come.
As he gazed through the code his eyes fell down to his boots and he stared at them. They were similar to the ones he had in the real world. Ahh, yes. The real world.
The real world to him was just the machine city on top and the human city on the bottom. He stayed in a small room located in the main tower of the city. Although he barely was out of the matrix, that's were he stayed. It didn't matter to him though; all he needed was to find out his purpose.
What's that? He thought coming out of his trance. It was the machines.
Neo? The great voice in his head asked. "Yes?" he replied. Obviously, they had another mission for him, someone else to kill.
Are you functioning well enough to stay in for another four hours?
The One nodded to no one in particular and said, "Yes."
Good. You need one last test. Go to the alley behind Dunkin Donuts. There, you will be given further instructions.
Then the voice was gone. Neo didn't care for his little experiments, for he knew all of his abilities to their fullest length. But he crouched down to the ground slowly and took off towards the alley.
************************** He arrived in about five minutes. He landed gracefully in front of a fence and looked around him.
"Hello 01" A familiar voice hissed into his ear. It was Agent Smith. The biggest asshole in the world. Accompanied by Agent Jones and Agent Brown. They were all looking very pleased with themselves, which was unusual because they usually looked very pissed to see him. Ever since Neo had been created they were jealous. Of coarse they were, they were just programs and bent on rules. He however was real. Faster. Stronger. Smarter. Defiantly smarter. But he was not based on rules. There were no rules for him.
It appeared odd for the machines to name him Neo. After all they had at first called him "The One". Yes, 01, or "The One" was his title. It was silly to name him Neo because it was just the letters in the word "One" moved around. But he grew to like that name because all the agents called him was 01.
He showed no expression to Smith's greeting. He never did really, as it was all in his eyes. So Neo wore his glasses all of the time so that no emotion what-so-ever slipped through. Like I have emotion. Neo thought to himself.
Then he turned to the giddy looking agents. "What is it Smith?" Neo responded in his normal tone.
"Command has sent you here to complete your final testing."
"I'm aware of that." Neo took note of the Agents now walking around him like vultures, circling their pray. Still Neo remained motionless.
"It is true you poses an extreme amount of abilities and kill quickly and easily, but so can we."
Neo considered this for a moment. "You now poses the same abilities I do?"
Smith frowned. "No, but the question is, can you beat an agent?"
Neo couldn't help but smirk. He couldn't believe Smith was challenging him. Well, command had ordered him to, but Neo knew Smith had wanted to but never got the nerve.
"So my final test is I have to beat you?" Neo asked more cocky than usual.
Smith again smiled his stupid evil grin. "No 01, you have to beat all of us."
Neo's grin still didn't fade. This sounded like a chance for him to open himself up. *snap* Neo and the agents glanced over to the bushes behind them. Neo had already seen the code and could tell it was a human spy. The Agents had started to walk over to the area but were stopped by the voice of command. No. Let them watch. Give those humans something to be afraid of.
The agents stopped and then turned to Neo.
Neo got serious. If he was going to scare the humans and beat the agents, he would have to try to make this as long as possible. For he knew the actual time limit the agents would stand against him. They wouldn't last more than 3 minutes. All of them at once.
"Very well." Neo said. Then he put one arm around his back and one in front of him gesturing that the agents go first.
The person in bush watched in shock and he filmed for Zion what the machines had planned to use to kill them all.
