Chapter four – an angry couple
The door to the oracles apartment flew open as an extremely angry Trinity burst through it. An angry Trinity is a VERY dangerous thing, if it's the first thing any new crewmember learns it's NEVER make Trinity angry.
Why her… why HER she growled to herself in her head I'd be willing to go begging to ANYONE else but her and I mean anyone. She BOUND to want something in return. Stupid little fucking bitch!!!!!! God knows what she's putting Neo through since he's at HER chateau.
By now she was half way down the street and realised she had no idea where she was. She pulled out her cell phone and pressed the speed dial. Okay so you're mad but there's no need to take it out on Link. She told herself sensibly.
"Operator,"
"I need an exit,"
"Nearest exit is two blocks down, next to a garage,"
"Thanks," she said and killed the line.
As Trinity walked through the city she said one word over and over to herself in her head bitch bitch bitch. The exit was just two blocks awayAround the street corner bitch She thought angrily. Trinity could hear the phone ringing.
Morpheus yanked the jack out of her head.
"So?" he asked. She looked around and saw the entire crew bearing down on her. All wanting to know whether there was any chance for Neo. She didn't feel like telling them, she felt like curling up in her room and only ever-telling Morpheus.
"He's alive," she said in a small unlike Trinity voice.
"But…?" Morpheus asked, not sharing in the unanimous sigh of relief. Trinity looked up at him and then at the rest of the crew, still stood around staring intently at her. Morpheus got her meaning
"Niobie, Ghost, make sure everything is in working order. Nat make sure we have everything in the med lab, god knows what Neo might need and Kid give her a hand, Link I want a scan throughout the Matrix make sure nothings wrong," Everyone jumped to his orders except Kid who protested,
"But I want to know…"
"Kid just go!" Trinity snapped, and Kid scampered off like a frightened bunny.
"Come on Trinity. You can tell me in the mess hall," Trinity got up and followed Morpheus without protest.
"So tell me what's wrong Trin" Morpheus asked gently. Trinity sighed
"We have to go begging to a certain Bitch to get him back," she said
"Persephone?" he asked She nodded "Shit,"
"Yeah that's what I thought surprisingly," Trinity said sarcastically. Morpheus took a slow breath and spoke in a calm clear voice. It brought comfort to Trinity. It was good to know that even though her head might be all over the place, her captain was always calm and he always knew what to do.
"I'll tell the rest of the crew. That'll give you a few moments to get your head together and then we'll send you in to fetch Neo out. Is that okay with you?"
Trinity nodded.
Morpheus left her with her head in hands and crouched over the table.
"I need to talk to you all." Morpheus said upon entering the core. "Finish what you're doing and meet me in the mess hall okay?" Morpheus turned on his heel and left.
Once they were all in the mess hall Morpheus began the tale.
"Well," he said unsure of exactly how to tell them "Well… to get Neo, Trinity will have to… well its sort of hard to explain…"
"How about starting from the beginning and stopping at the end?" Niobie snapped. She had taken the night shift last night and was rather tired and impatient from it.
"Okay well… a while back we had to find this program called the keymaker and…"
"Hey Neo," Trinity said stepping into the med lab she sat beside him and squeezed his hand. She didn't know why she was there, in all honesty. It wasn't as if Neo could give her reassurance. How many times have I been here? She thought spitefully, how many times have I stood over him worrying? She could answer that- so many that I don't notice the worrying feeling so much anymore. After all, everytime he entered the matrix without her, she worried. Everytime he fought someone and she wasn't there, she worried. It was stupid, and she knew it was. He could look after himself he was a far better fighter than she was, he was the one,and still she worried.
"You know what Neo?" she said aloud coming to a decision "I will go and beg to her, and anything she wants she can have it, because right now I need you back," she told him fiercely, she leaned in and kissed his forehead then left, filled with a new strength.
Kid let out a long low whistle, Niobie stared, her mouth dropped open.
"Well I'm surprised that Trinity didn't shoot her," Ghost said, breaking the silence and the tension in the room.
"Me too actually," Link said. "You gotta feel sorry for her though,"
"Yeh," Niobie agreed "bad stuff always seems to-," she stopped as Trinity poked her head around the door.
"Are we ready to go?" she asked, her voice cool and calm, not showing any of the fear, anxiety or hope that she was feeling.
Neo blinked and opened his eyes to see an unfamiliar marble ceiling above him, and immediately panicked, his brain exploding with questions, 'Where am I?' 'Did I win?' 'Is the war over?' 'Where's Trinity? Got I hope she's okay" Neo tried to sit up but the pain in his head forced him to lie back down again, eyes fixed on the ceiling, he wondered where he was, was there anybody friendly here he could speak to? As if in answer to his thoughts, a voice broke the silence. A voice that Neo recognized and a voice that Neo really could have done without hearing:
"Well, well.... awake are we??"
Neo moaned inwardly oh god no I can't be here, anywhere but here he thought desperately. Since sitting up hurt too much he rolled onto his side and looked straight at the woman whom he despised. "Persephone," he mumbled she smiled "how did I get here?" he thought out loud, after a while
"Well, you see, I found you lying in the middle of a street, couldn't leave you there could I?" Persephone said from her seat beside his bed. If anyone else had said this Neo would have believed they were friends, taking care of him but as it was Persephone….
"Let me go" Neo said knowing perfectly well she wouldn't, but thought he'd give it a go anyway
"Oh I don't think so," she drawled "I think we shall wait until that pretty little girlfriend of yours, comes to fetch you." Neo felt his stomach clench Trinity, no! He thought desperately, he knew she would come for him, and he also knew that Persephone wasn't likely to play nice.
"If you touch her..." he growled through clenched teeth.
"You'll do what?" she challenged, "It's not like you'll be able to get up and start fighting me is it?" she teased with a smile, and with that she swung her legs to the side stood up and gracefully left he room. He heard the key click behind her.
He lay there for a few moments and concentrated on his breathing, making sure she was truly gone. Calm down! Trinity will be fine! He scolded himself you'll find a way out of here before she can get to you. Ignoring all pain Neo scrambled out of the bed and struggled his way over to the door. Squinting a little at the wood he tried to manipulate the code so the door would open. But he couldn't, something was stopping him god knows what. He looked deeper into the code trying to find a reason, a reason why he couldn't do what he'd always been able to. Abandoning the door he slowly limped towards the one window in the room and tried to do the same thing, but failed again. Starting to get angry, he pushed with all his might against the window
"Shit," he spat pushing himself away from the window. He flung himself on to the bed and punched his pillow in the hope of relieving some stress. If anything happens to her I'll never forgive myself!
A/N R&R please…pretty please??
