Thanks for the reviews. Sorry for the wait. Here goes the next part.
Trinity POV
As I open my eyes to the seemingly permanent semi dimness of the real world. I see Neo sitting up with the help of Tank and Morpheus talking to whoever is on the Logos I assume. I look over to see where Lightning is and she is lying still and her heart is beating really fast. She seems scared from the brainwaves.
"Tank" I call
"Yep"
"Where is Lightning?"
He leaves Neo and runs to the screens he focuses in on her.
"She's just at the exit she should be here any second" There was a slight beeping and a gasp from Lightning "Yep and there goes the exit. Shit no wonder she was scared"
I ignore the rest of his sentence and look run to my sister taking the needle out of her head. She looks terrified. The minute I undid her restraints she curled into a ball shaking and holding her arm. I get a look at it and see that there is quite a deep bullet wound in her upper arm.
"Lightning?"
Her head whips round, she looks scared until she recognised me then her face became one of relief. She starts to babble.
"They were too close and they kept changing people. I got lost I didn't know where I was going then they shot me. I was in a market. You never go where there are a lot of people I know that I got confused"
"Shh, shh" I say stroking her hair gently "It's ok, you're safe no one here will hurt you"
"Trinity, I nearly got caught"
I sigh and look at her she looks so young and so like Felix for some reason, it's unreal.
"You're alright you did get away" I say "But if you ever do something like that again I will make sure you can't walk for a few days for other reasons than running"
I smile and she laughs. She asks how Neo and Morpheus are and I realise that I don't really know. I turn to see Neo watching me and Morpheus still talking to, well it has to be Niobe, he has that look in his eyes. Tank comes over and lifts Lightning up easily. She squeaks then falls silent.
"Come on little one. I think I should get that cut done properly for you"
"Thank you Tank" she says and I sense it isn't just for this.
"Thanks Tank" I say quietly.
He nods at me and I turn to Neo. He smiles at me and reaches out. I take his hand and walk towards him. There is no blood on his shirt, that's good, it can't be too serious then. I lift up his shirt and all I see is a large bruise. He winces as I touch it and I withdraw my hand.
"Come on" I say "Lets get you back to your room and I'll find you some ice and some pain pills"
"Ok" he says and lets me help him up.
Neo POV
Ok standing up is not so good. I'm so dizzy, I collapse into Trin and she just wraps her arms around me and tells me to do the same.
"It's ok Neo. Just keep a hold on me and everything will be ok"
I stand there with my head on her shoulder for a few minutes before I lift my head and look at her. Her electric eyes are full of worry. I smile to try and put her at ease.
"Thank you" I whisper
"You just look at me and we'll walk to the med bay ok?"
I simply nod but not for too long as it makes me even more dizzy. I see her smile at me.
"What?" I ask
"You making yourself dizzy" she says simply.
I just smile at her and then we begin to move down the corridors towards the med bay. I keep looking into her eyes while she manoeuvres us there. I look away for a moment then feel dizzy again. I sway slightly and we stop. She puts a hand to my face.
"Hey you" she says "What did I tell you?"
"I know" I say "I will sorry Trin"
"It isn't hurting me" she says as we start to move again my eyes locked on hers "I'm just trying to stop you falling over"
I chuckle slightly and she smiles at me. It took about five minutes to get to the med bay. Trin lies me down on a table and I look over to my other side to see Lightning lying on the table looking asleep as Tank stitches her arm. I jump slightly as she opens her eye and looks at me. I smile at her and she just closes her eyes again.
I flinch as Trin puts some weight on my stomach. I look down at her and see her looking closely at the large bruise there as well as a large cut. I must have lost some blood here too for me to feel this light headed. She looks at me and carefully takes my jumpers off. I shiver as my back hits the cold table. She smiles and kisses my forehead.
"You ok?" she asked
"Yeah" I say "A little light headed but nothing too bad"
"You have lost some blood but I couldn't see any on the chair or your clothes. It must be one of your weird, being the one, things"
I smile at that and catch hold of her hand. She looks down at me and I bring it up to my mouth and kiss it gently. She sets to work as the sleep pills start to work.

Hope you like.
