Chapter 3- a very important meeting
"Trinity maybe you should take a break?...Just five minutes?" Morpheus suggested as Trinity ran around the dock moving this, mending that. Never stopping. She hadn't been eating properly since they returned from 01; in fact he was pretty sure she'd only been eating when someone was there to see her. She sure as hell hadn't had a moments sleep. Therefore, she was hardly in any condition to be rushing around as if there was no tomorrow.
"Take a break!?" she yelled from behind a rather large pile of rubble that she was trying to shift all by herself- she then realised that she couldn't, in fact, move it and abandoned the task... for a while at least.
"I can't take a break," she explained stepping up to Morpheus "the sooner we get the dock cleared and the ship fixed, the sooner I can see Neo," she then ran off in the opposite direction heading for another slightly smaller pile of rubble. Morpheus shook his head and hurried after her.
"Trinity you're overdoing it, five minutes isn't going to make that much of a difference," this seemed to have no effect on the woman so he tried a different approach, one that he knew would work, "Neo wouldn't want you to overdo it would he?" he said. Trinity looked up before she collapsed against a sheet of metal. Wiping sodden strands of hair out of her face she admitted defeat:
"Okay, okay five minutes, but that's ALL," she said, and stalked off towards her home, leaving Morpheus to work alone: she barely made it to the bed before collapsing in exhaustion. As much as she hated to admit it, Morpheus was right, she had been trying to do too much... when will I learn? She thought to herself before falling into a deep, dreamless sleep.
"Trinity? Trinity wake up." Morpheus was shaking her awake.
"Huh?" Trinity mumbled "uhhhhh" she moaned as she remembered where she was and what was happening. Wiping the sleep from her eyes she sat up "how long have I been asleep?" she asked.
"About 20 hours" Morpheus replied.
"WHAT!" Trinity yelled leaping out of bed. "HOW could you let me sleep that long? I said FIVE minutes!"
"You're not going anywhere until you've had something to eat" Morpheus commanded, avoiding the question.
"But."
"That's an order!" She sat down again, defeated.
Half an hour later Trinity was, once again, allowed to work and in three days the ship was ready and they were off. A large number of people had offered to go with them. Onboard the Hammer were Niobie, Kid, Ghost, Link, a medic named Nat and, of course, Morpheus and Trinity. Also lying in the medical room was Neo.
"Are you sure about this Trinity?" Morpheus asked for the hundredth time while they were on their way to broadcast level.
" No," she answered "but I have to try," Morpheus opened his mouth to say something else but Niobe silenced him:
"Shut it Morpheus," she snapped whilst steering "how would you feel if you loved someone that much, and didn't do what she's doing, and you went through life saying 'what if I had tried' hmmm?" she questioned after Trinity had left
"Pretty bad." Morpheus replied, humbled.
"Well then."
"Yes."
"Good luck."
"Thanks." Without another word, Morpheus slid the jack into her head. I hope you can save him. Or else… well I'd hate to see what it would do to you,
"Hello Trinity." the oracle's calm voice came from the small kitchen table where she sat. Trinity didn't reply.
"Candy?" she offered, picking a red sweet out of the pot in front of her and holding it out.
"No, thank you" Trinity replied in an ice cool tone, her face betraying none of her emotions.
"Yeah. That's what he said," the oracle said putting the sweet back. The sentence caused a flutter of hope in Trinity's heart.
"He was here?"
"Yes, before the war was over."
"Oh." This was why Trinity often hated coming to the oracle, she talked so much bullshit before getting to the point, and in this case it was a very important point she needed to get to. In an attempt to get the Oracle to tell her what she needed to know, she asked:
"Do you know about Neo?"
"Yes. Do you want to know how it happened?"
"Yes." it might be useful, you never know.
The oracle reclined in her chair and surveyed Trinity over her mug.
"Somehow or other," she began "There came a moment when Neo believed that the matrix was real, so, to him, the Matrix WAS real, making his body appear lifeless. That is all." She paused, once again to let Trinity process this information.
Does that mean that he's forgotten who he is? Trinity thought to herself.
"He does remember," Trinity glared at the oracle from behind her dark-glasses, how dare she? How DARE she? Her thoughts were her own. Thoughts are private things that nobody should read or invade.
"If you don't ask the question you'll never hear the answer," the oracle said gently, Trinity knew she had to ask but she was dreading the answer. She took a deep breath, here goes.
"Is Neo alive?"
"Yes." Her heart flooded with relief.
"Can I bring him back?"
"Yes."
"Where is he?"
"I'm sorry"... oh no... "I don't really know the answer to that but. There is someone that knows where he is."
"Who?" Trinity asked, but she didn't need to. She could already tell.
Oh shit.
