Thanks to:

EmyLyii, right again!!! I'll have some more puzzles for you to figure out in a couple of chapters time!

Trialia, thanks again, I hope I don't disappoint. oh, and by the way, your post-rev story is looking very good

richard the pedantic, yep, better read the chapters first. Oh, and how exactly are you going to find and dig my garden up and put diseases there!?! Actually, I probably shouldn't ask that! Oh, and if you want to dig anyone's garden up, dig up my teachers, they're the ones who have just given me a detention, which I just served today.

Orcus, I think you might be right if I think I know what you're getting at. Well, you'll have to wait one or two chapters to find out! Oh, and thanks for reviewing, its not often I see new reviewers, so thanks!

Morpheus returned to his real body after he completed Sapphire's unplugging process, and made his way to the lower deck where he presumed she had just been rescued by the Claw. However he jumped down the last ladder to find a totally different scene. The Claw was rolling itself up as expected in the background, but not from retrieving her nude body. It had been used to bring onboard the pod she was lying in. And the pod did not contain the usual red/pink slime. It was completely clear.

In front of him Kid and Zee were helping the poor girl out of the slime bath. All the tubes that were once connected to the girl were floating suspended in the pod having been automatically removed by the machinery itself, except the one leading to the back of her head. Zee quickly unscrewed it and wrapped her in a blanket.

Everyone was looking curiously at Sapphire, for obvious reasons, including the fact that she had something that no one else had when unplugged.

Hair. Long, waist length black hair.

Only Morpheus had been in the matrix and seen her real appearance, with shoulder length red hair, and only he knew that if she even should have hair, it should have been the same colour as her RSI. But no, it wasn't, and at the moment, he didn't really care that her hair wasn't the right colour, he only cared that she had the hair in the first place.

The rest of the crew had very reluctantly left the lower level when ordered, leaving the only female and the captain behind to begin the process of making the girl healthy. Morpheus carried Sapphire into the Sickbay, the only other room on that level. Zee began to dry her off and do a quick inspection of her whilst Morpheus began collecting the usual instruments needed and turned the fluorescent lights on. He turned back to the bed to start.

"Heart rate and breathing is ok, and she is fully conscious." Zee informed him. The girls eyes were open, and were looking at her and around the room she was in. She blinked wearily a couple of times, and Zee quietly informed her that her eyes would recover in a few days. She mumbled something that sounded a little like, "I know.", but Zee couldn't be sure. Zee covered her to keep her walm while she took the captain aside.

"Apart from the fact that she is the first person in history to be removed from a clear white pod, and to have hair, she has also got semi-formed muscles and about half the number of usual plugs in her."

Morpheus gave her a double take. "What?"

Zee sighed. "She has the usual neural plug, and all the main plugs responsible for keeping her alive, but she doesn't have any of the plugs we've discovered as being connected to the gaining or removing of energy, which is, well, what people like yourself were wanted for in the first place."

"So what you are saying that the machines were keeping her alive, but were not using her as an energy source." Morpheus asked, his brows furrowed.

"Exactly. I think that is also why she has muscles and hair, because she had the spare energy to grow them. And also why the pod contents is that colour, because probably the usual red contents has something to do with removing energy, but of course I would have to run some tests to be absolutely sure."

"Right, of course." Morpheus said, half listening as he was deep in thought again.

"Sir, would you mind if I ran a blood test?" Zee said, after a little pause as she plucked up the courage to ask.

"Why?"

"I don't know, just a little sneak suspicion."

"What are you thinking about?"

"Well, she has obviously been treated differently by the machines, and the Matrix Angels knew about that. She looks to be approximately seventeen years old, and she just, well." she struggled to find the right words.

"I want to know if she might be related to anyone we know." she half suggested her explanation.

"She's a pod born. Its highly unlikely." Morpheus reminded her.

"I know, but. She just. Didn't you notice anything special about her features?" Zee said at last, trying to show what she was getting at. Morpheus tilted his head a bit, remembering what Sapphire looked like inside the Matrix, and how her appearance was so different to her real body. However, he knew that she wouldn't know about that, she hadn't been there, so there must be something else that she'd seen.

"She had very similar features to Trinity." She said quietly, after breaking the silence. Morpheus raised an eyebrow. Zee sighed again, frustrated, as she remembered what she'd said to Link 18 years ago about Morpheus being crazy. Why didn't she ever listen to even herself? She gave another attempted, however this time getting the point across as simply possible.

"She has that brown, almost black hair, practically identical facial features to her, and has her pail blue eyes. She's practically a spitting image of her."

Morpheus gave her a sharp look, muttering something under his breath. Zee quickly tried to explain herself again, frightened that she had been out of line, and annoyed at herself for her abruptness.

"I mean, we don't really know, this girl has been treated differently than everyone else, she has Trinity's features, and both the Oracle and the Matrix angels wanted her to be safe and cared for here. I just think that it must be linked, there must be an explanation somewhere."

Morpheus looked up at his medical officer finally.

"It is an interesting idea you have, and I'm curious where it could lead. I was thinking about the events that happened earlier today, and about when you commented on Sapphire's features. When I went to meet her, I saw her at the back of the club, with I think what must be two of the Matrix Angels. She hugged them, and then they left. She then made her way to me, and she knew instinctively who I was. She also didn't have long black hair, or blue eyes. They were green, and her hair was shoulder length and red."

Zee didn't know what to say. This was as much of a surprise as everything else was.

"Maybe you should contact Niobe. I mean, it was from her message that you were asked to meet with the Oracle. And she also said she had found out a little bit about the Matrix Angels"

"Actually, that isn't a bad idea. Its been a while time since we've met up, and I believe the Logos is pretty close to us." Zee managed to hide the laugh that the statement brought up, as it had in fact only been one day before the Matrix Angels' message to Niobe that they had met up- just over a week ago. "Good idea, Zee. I'll tell the rest of the crew once we're finished up here." He continued, oblivious to her slight change in expression, as she tried to hide her smile. She realised it would have been very beneficial if she had gotten lessons from Trinity as to how she hid her emotions, as Zee realised that she was failing.

"Actually, why don't you go now. I'll be able to work on Sapphire alone, she doesn't need half as much work as other people, and she is in pretty good health anyway." She hoped it would work.

"Thank you." Bingo! He went out of the room, and was almost up the stairs when Zee called after him.

"Say 'Hi' to Niobe for me, and tell Link that I'll be here for a little while before I'm done for the day."

"I will!" Morpheus shouted down, halfway up the ladder.

Zee smiled, and returned back to the room, where Sapphire was now sitting on her bed, waiting for her.

"You know, not a lot of people have enough strength to sit up on their beds after being freed." Zee said sarcastically, a kind smile on her face as she studied the girl for a moment.

"Hmm, I guess I'm not what you'd call 'normal', then." Sapphire replied, smiling at the look her doctor gave her in return.

Oh, and by the way, if you are interested, I have a lot of pictures from a specific scene in Revolutions- the Trinity and Bane/Smith fight. Oh, and I have a few bad quality ones of just after the Logos crashed, if you know what I mean. If anyone wants me to send them any specific ones. just email me/ say so in a review (make sure I have your email), and I'll send them to you. And make sure you have enough space to receive the attachments. Just if you want them, you know. I think I'm not the only one suffering from Revolutions withdrawal, as you are all reading these Rev fanfictions.
