Here's the next part.
Trinity POV
Already, I put down the blowtorch and wipe my hands off. Tank can't be serious, she's only been training for 8 hours.
"Tank what are you talking about?"
"Come and spar with your sister she had some of the programs in her head already for some reason so it didn't take as long."
"Are you sure this is alright?" I ask jumping down the ladder and landing in command.
"Yep" he says "Neo load her up"
"On it" he says from behind me and picking me up. I struggle and nearly hit him before he pins my arms and puts me in the chair. "Calm down. I won't hurt you"
"I know" I say calming myself down "It's just a reaction ok"
"Yeah I know" he stood up and prepared for me to go in. As he slid the needle into my head I heard him say "Go show her how it's really done"
I open my eyes to find my little sister already there looking around. She's wearing a white fighting suit with black ties and I'm wearing the opposite.
"Lightning do you know what this is?"
"A training program?" she says head to one side looking at me.
"Yes it is a sparring program. Where we can practise"
"Oh ok so I'm fighting you am I?" Why is she grinning?
"Yes you are"
"Ok"
"Begin" I say and she immediately goes straight into an offensive stance. I take up a defensive one and beckoned her forward. Well all I can say is that she is bloody fast but she was still only going as fast as a plugged can go if they train.
Neo POV
Holy Jesus that girl is fast.
"Neo go get Morpheus. He needs to see this." I nod and run up to the cockpit. Morpheus turns as I come in.
"The sisters are sparring"
"This could be interesting" he says bringing the ship down to rest quickly then following me down to command.
"She's fast" I say as we walk up to the console.
"Yeah" Tank says "But it is only as fast as a plugged can get. We have got to get her to run I saw her do it once before just before we picked her up. She is seriously fast."
I turn back to the construct to see Lightning on the floor and Trin standing looking at her. Lightning flipped onto her feet and I could see Trin talking to her.
Lightning POV
"You can go faster" Trinity says smiling at me.
"Really?" I say taking a defensive stance beckoning her forward. She raises her eyebrows takes her stance then comes at me fast I dodge and try to counter by hitting her back put she flips forward her feet narrowly missing my face. I stumble back and she comes again with a kick which I block with my foot.
"You have to free your mind" she says still fighting
"Free it eh?" I say then decide to take a chance and use my secret weapon so to speak. I grin then run towards her she looks slightly startled and goes to block me but I jump and fly over her head. I land running then run up the pillar twisting as I jump off it. She just watches me then looks as if she is going to kick me. Everything slows down somewhat when I go at this speed so I just drop take hold of her leg firmly and draw her towards me kick her other leg out carefully so as not to hurt her. She falls hard. She lies still for a second before smiling up at me as I offer my hand to help her up.
"Nice" she says. "Try that sort of thing again"
Neo POV
My god she just floored Trin. Tank is almost dancing for gods sake.
"My god I'm so going to tease her about that a newbie knocked her down within five minutes"
"Don't forget, she is Trin's sister" I say.
"Good point"
"Which means she'll probably back up Trinity when you argue. Do you really want two of them after you?" I smile at him and Morpheus does also.
"Well said Neo" he says
"Yeah well you know how much I like getting hit so I'm going to do it anyway" I laugh and turn back to watching the screen. I look hard at the screen I can't see Lightning.
"Uh Tank where's Lightning?"
"What are you talking about she's right there?" he says.
"I can't see her" I say
"Can you see that new sort of circle on the mat?" asks Morpheus.
"Yeah"
"That would be our Lightning"
"How is she doing that?"
"She's running, it looks like that when you fly man" Tank says tapping on some buttons bringing the picture into better focus. I can see Trin laughing at her sister.
Trinity POV
I can only watch really as Lightning runs round and round. I told her to show me how fast she could go and she's defiantly proved that. Now I have to try and trip her I edge closer to her as she runs then suddenly stick my foot out. Ouch maybe I shouldn't have done that.
"Christ!" I say as I hold my ankle it was like putting your foot out to stop a car or something. I look up and I see Lightning lying on the floor. I saw her trip and skid, maybe that wasn't such a good idea. I get up and run over to her quickly. I turn her over gently. She lies still for a second then opens her eyes.
"You could at least have picked a spot that wasn't so close to a pillar" she says trying to grin and I look up at the nearest pillar. It had a large dent in the bottom. Lightning grimaced as she sat up. "Jesus I think I've bruised my rib or something" she pressed a hand against her ribs "Nothing's broken. Although it couldn't really be broken here could it." I shake my head slightly.
"It can be. If you are hurt in the Matrix you are hurt in the real world to sometimes not as severely but don't think that you can just get shot. Avoid bullets please"
"I'm not that stupid Trinity I wouldn't deliberately go and get shot" she sighed and pulled her sleeve up to expose her upper arm to reveal a bullet wound "They hurt. I may be fast but I can't quite dodge bullets yet"
"Don't try leave that to Neo"
"Ok I'll trust you with that" she says as I help her to her feet "Can we go back now I don't think I'll do this fight justice if I do it now"
"Of course" I say.
"And another thing you need to learn about stopping distances" she says with a slight smile on her face.
"Oh ha, ha" I say "I'm sorry ok" she sticks her tongue out at me then I call to Tank "Tank get us out of here she needs a break" I could hear the laughter coming from above as we are sucked, it is still the best word I can come up with, into the real world.
