Thank you very much for the reviews they're great. Next update sorry if this short and for length between update. Having writers block at the moment have ideas but don't know how to get there so bear with me and any help would be appreciated.
Neo POV
I'm finally off bed rest, thank god or whatever. We're going to see the oracle today as well. Lightning has finished all her training and is very good. She's hanging around in the mess hall again doodling on some paper.
"Do you actually do anything?" I ask
"What?" she asks spinning round and almost falling over
We really need to get her some clothes that fit. She keeps tripping over the bottom of her trousers.
"You never seem to be doing anything"
"I've haven't been told to do anything" she says shrugging "S'not my fault"
She grins at me and I shake my head. She's a weird one no mistake but amusing. I look up as Trin walks in and smile at her. She pushes Lightning's hat over her eyes and she just pushing it back up poking her tongue out at her sister.
Lightning does seem to manage to bring out a lighter side of Trin, she does to everyone. They're bickering again.
"I'll show you then" Lightning says standing up
She jumps onto her hands and stands there looking at her sister. I share a look with Trinity and we walk over quickly and before she can move grab a leg each and lift her off the floor. She squeaks and struggles slightly as we walk to the wall and hang her up. She glowers at us as we sit back down again.
"What are we doing today?" I ask Trin half ignoring the muttering coming from the other side of the room.
"Finding the oracle"
There was a thump and Lightning shuffled to sit next to Trin pulling her hat almost over her eyes. I would have grinned at this had it not been for Trinity's last three words. I simply looked at her and she met my gaze and more than matched it. Her boot brushed mine under the table and I half smiled. She got up and moved to my side of the table, sitting herself down next to me I pulled her hand into mine and entwined our fingers.
Lightning POV
Oh hark at the lovey dovey couple. I can't believe they just did that. I don't know why I'm so attractive to being turned upside down, thinking about it, it's probably because I can be picked up by anyone. I'm far too skinny. I lay my head on the table and watch the door for no real reason for a few seconds before returning to my piece of paper and doodling some more.
This oracle person they all seemed to be nervous of isn't really phasing me as yet. I'm sure I'll be scared shitless when I actually meet her but hey. The comm. system crackles into life and I listen to Morpheus's voice telling us we're going in.
We haven't been in for over a week, two for me and Neo to make sure we were healed properly. Dear Lord my sister's boyfriend can be annoying. You wouldn't think it but he's evil, pure evil, so much for being the one and saviour of everything. While the others were inside he stole my hat and made me chase him round the entire ship. I think it was to keep his mind off the fact that Trinity was inside without him but he was still bloody annoying.
I walk ahead of them to the control room and vault over the bars landing silently just behind Tank. He turns and shrieks like a little girl while I stand there grinning for a second before taking off and hiding behind Morpheus getting into a conversation with him so Tank can't attack me.
He gets me back while he gets me into the chair though by pouring clod water down my back. I try and writhe away but I'm in the construct before I can even try. I pull my coat around me and sit on the white floor waiting for the others to appear. I only have to wait for a few minutes before Neo appears and nods to me. I get up as both Trinity and Morpheus appear. Once we're all there we're loaded straight in seeing as Tank, for once remembered to load our guns in with us.
"We're in" says Morpheus into the phone
It the statuary words I've found we never say anything else, hey when I did I got weird looks. We get into the car Morpheus and me in the front while Neo and Trin get in the back. Again it just seems to be the arrangement. Morpheus let me drive last time but this time he's driving. I look out of the window and stare up at the skyscrapers over head. Just sometimes I wish that the real world could be more like this I always did like skyscrapers for some reason.
Neo POV
It's the same building as before. I would almost bet that nothing and no one had moved in or out of it. This does bring back some less pleasant memories but I just take a deep breath as we all get out of the car. I have a feeling we'll be doing guard duty. I really don't want to see the Oracle unless absolutely necessary, even if what she says is right, I don't like it. Trin looks at me and I can feel rather than see the warmth in her eyes. She never lets her guard down here, you can't.
Lightning has either had too much sugar or is nervous. She's twirling that knife of hers around far too much. I have a feeling that she's going to start throwing it in a minute. Even if I can stop it I'm not overly keen on having knives thrown at me. I see Trin put a hand on her arm and she instantly stops and looks up at her sister. Trin just smiled at her and she relaxed.
"You're going to be fine sis" she whispers to her
"Thanks"
Trin walks over and stands next to me as Lightning leans back against the wall and closes her eyes. She has to be the first person I've met that doesn't wear sunglasses in here. Morpheus looks at me and I nod to him. The lift stops and I walk out first with Trin just behind me guns half drawn ready for anything.

Hope you like
