Und zis story IZ dedicated to Ieva, for all ze laughs she gave uz in 'A Simple Misunderstanding'.
Oh. Almost forgot: I don't own the Matrix. I only own my Evenstar pendant, the clothes upon my back, and a fish. Phooey.
Chapter 1 Every Story has it's Beginning...
The scene opens on Danae, sitting at her computer, screaming at it because it's not doing what she wants. Suddenly, the screen goes blank. Her eyes bulge in frustration.
'Hey! Stupid, Fat Computer!!!!' She screeches. She reaches for the restart button, but... Small letters seem to type by themselves on the screen.
"Wake up, Danae." Our heroine stares in shock.
'Huh?'
She rubs her eyes and takes a second look. She scoffs.
'Sheesh. I'm already awake.' The letters disappear, only to reveal a new message. Now they read: Oops, wrong line.
Danae just sits and stares. Another message appears: The Matrix has you.
Danae wrinkles her forehead. 'Dude...' she whispers.
The letters type out: What?
'What?'
There is a pause. "Never Mind." Say the letters.
Danae stares hard at the computer. 'Since when did you learn to talk to me?'
"Because I'm a human. Duh."
'No you're not. You're a computer that's going weird.'
"No I'm not."
Danae's eyes bulge.
'AAAAAAAAAAAA!!!!!! DADDY!!!! MY COMPUTER'S NOT A COMPUTER!!!!!'
"Shut up."
'AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!'
Her father's voice booms out over her racket: QUIET!!!!!!!!
Danae sniffles pitifully.
"Now, pay attention," Say the letters.
'I already am.'
"Thank you."
'You're welcome.'
"Just shut up and listen."
She pouts and shuts up.
"Thank you."
'You're welcome.'
"RRRRRRRRRGGGGGGGGGG..."
Our heroine snickers.
There is another pause. Then...
"Follow the purple rabbit."
Danae just sits and stares
There is yet another pause. Then, one more message appears: Oops. G2G. Agents are trying to capture me. TTYL!
Danae still sits and stares. The screen goes back to normal.
'Well, that was an eye-opener, and no mistake!'
LATER...
Danae is riding her bike to school. Suddenly, a very cool shiny looking car comes up. A woman in black leather opens the door.
'Get in.' She says.
Danae starts.
'Wha-? Hey, don't think I'm gonna fall for that one. I aced my stranger danger lessons back in the first grade.'
Trinity grabs Danae and drags her in
'AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!'
'Shut up'.
Danae kicks Trinity
'Calm down!' Cries Trinity, nursing her shin
'No.'
'Yes.'
'No.'
'Yes.'
'No.'
'Apoc, just start driving!'
The man at the wheel just starts driving, and Danae wails at the top of her lungs.
An hour later.... We find Danae still wailing at the top of her lungs
Trinity shouts over the racket: 'We're here and I'm not deaf!'
'AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA!!!! !!!!!!' wails Danae.
Inside an old hotel, they are greeted by a mysterious Man, dressed in black.
'Hello, Dana.'
Danae scoffs.
'It's Dan-A-ee! Greek. She was the girl whose father invented over-seas shipping. Very cool sounding. You're not very smart!'
The man frowns. 'Thank you,' he replies, sarcastically.
'You're welcome.'
'Just Shut up and listen.'
Danae shuts up reluctantly
He smiles. 'Thank you.'
'You're w-'
'QUIET!!!!!!!!'
'Okay...'
'Ahem. As you no doubt have guessed, I am Morpheus.'
'Actually, I didn't guess that you're Morpheus.'
'Whatever. Do you feel at all like Alice? Tumbling down the rabbit hole?'
'Errr... Noooo... And speaking of rabbits, what ever happened to the 'Follow the purple rabbit' thing?'
'The author got bored of that concept.'
'Oh.'
'Anyway...' He digs through his pockets, brining out everything from Kleenex, to Tic- Taks, to a safety pin. Finally, he finds what he was searching for. He smiles triumphantly, shoving all the other junk back into his pockets.
'Here are two pretty, shiny pills.'
Danae recoils.
'Oh, no,' She says, shocked.
'I learned to never take drugs in the second grade.'
'They're not drugs.'
'Then what are they?'
'Some weird thing in the movie. I dunno.'
'And...?'
'Pick one.'
'-Huh?'
'Just take one of the pills.'
'And umm... what'll happen when I do?'
Morpheus sighs.
'If you take the Blue Pill you'll wake up in your bed not remembering any of this...'
'Sounds nice.'
'And if you take the Red Pill, you'll wake up in a pod of icky red goo with all sorts of nasty wires plugged into you, and be stuck with us for the rest of your life.'
'...Okaaay...'
There is more pausing.
'Well? Red or Blue?' Asks Morpheus finally
'Blue.'
'No! You can't pick blue!!'
'You said I had a choice.'
'Okay, let's rephrase my earlier explanation. If you take the Blue Pill you will remain enslaved for the rest of your life, and if you take the red pill you'll become free. Better?'
'i.e. I'm in a no-win situation.'
'Exactly. Now. Red or Blue.'
Danae swallows both
Morpheus jumps, shouting:
''Hey! Cheater!'
Danae merely grins smugly
'Soooo...'
All of a sudden, our heroine crumples to the floor, fast asleep!
'APOC! SWITCH! TRINITY! GET IN HERE!' Shouts Morpheus.
