Epilogue #1
Parody Ending
"I'm tired Trinity. Tired of this war, tired of fighting, being cold and..."
Danae, hiding behind her Apoc's chair, starts mimicking him silently.
"...I disagree, Trinity. I think that the Matrix can be more real than this world." Cypher the Creepy begins to advance on poor Apoc. "All I do is pull a plug here. There, you have to watch Apoc die."
Kscrink.
Beeeeep.
The sound of being unplugged.
The sound of murder.
Our heroine's eyes bulge, and she muffles a scream as Cypher the Hated murders Apoc. Her eyes narrow, and fists clench as she quietly follows Cypher around the Main Deck.
"... All I want is a little yes or no. Come on."
Danae slumps down on the ground next to Tank's body. This is a parody. It's not supposed to work out like this... suddenly, an evil grin lights up her face.
"Idiot Cypher! Tank's not dead! And he goes and drops the gun next to him!" She begins to poke and prod Tank into wakefulness, and starts whispering to him to plant the idea of revenge in his brain.
"...Look into his eyes. Those big, pretty eyes. And tell me. Yes or No."
Tank still wouldn't budge.
"Arrg! WAKE UP!" As happens in all great Mary-Sue fics, a pin magically is sitting next to Danae. She grabs it and sticks Tank in the leg. He lunges up, grabbing the gun-thingy and muttering murder upon she who poked him.
"I don't believe it!" Gasps Danae
"I don't believe it!" Gasps Cypher
"Believe it or not, you're still gonna burn!"
Just in time, Danae throws herself on the ground, dodging the ray of electricity. Said ray hits Cypher. Yaay.
But we still have the problem of a dead Apoc.
"Heck, no problem. I BELIEVE HE'S NOT DEAD!"
Apoc sits up slowly. His eyes gleam red, and he looks a little transparent...
"Aaaaa! Demon Apoc! Demon Apoc! Run away!!!" Danae sprints off, leaving what's left of the Neb's crew alone to deal with the ghost of Apoc.
The End.
