A man walks down the street, being watched by people standing on buildings, unaware that his life will be taken today... As he walks the man seems to look around more as if his paranoid state isn't already bad enough. The man is being tracked by a operative working for the machines... He knows this but cannot stop the man all he can do is walk and act as if nothing is wrong.
For an hour he walks, affraid to look at people, so he stares at the ground. To affraid to start running he keeps walking and comes apon a hardline in downtown. Near the hardline are two redpills dueling as if no one else can see them, the man isn't a red pill but he knows of the matrix, just not everything... A week before this walk of his, he was contacted by some zion operatives. He thought they were crazy, by what they had said to him. But in the few days after they spoke to him he has been seeing more things that he cannot explain. The other day he could have sworn he saw a man change, into a man in a suit. It was strange at first but then the man in the suit jumped from the ground to a tall building in front of him. This was something he had never seen before and it shocked him alittle... Just alittle...
The man had always been somewhat of a skilled fighter but as he watched the two redpills fight he knew they weren't just skilled, but they were amazing... After they had dueled they looked over at the man before jumping away. They did this so easily that it seemed almost as if they could fly at will... But then he remembered what he was doing, so he continued to walk, faster this time then before. He turned a corner and kept walking straight unaware that this would be his last mistake...
Unable to understand at that point why he was being tracked, aswell as not knowing how important this day in his life would be he continued to walk down a path to no where. He began to run but he could not understand why he was running so slowly, he couldn't even see the person following him but he knew, deep down inside, he knew if he was caught he would be killed...
As he reaches the end of the road the sun sets in the background, making the ally dark and scarey. The man fears for his life and begins to shout out randomly, "Someone help!" "Please they are gonna kill me!" But dispite his loud voice no one comes, no one helps him, he is all alone with a being unlike that of a human, chasing him...
Then as the man turns around he hears a voice, "Do not fear me Mr. Haywood, I am only hear to offer you a deal." Mr. Haywood:How do you know that name? I haven't gone by that name in years, at leist not openly. "Quite, Skull is it? You will come with me Mr. Haywood or you will face death." Mr. Haywood: I will do no such thing. You are after me for a reason, might I ask why? There must be a purpose? Please, do tell... "Mr. Haywood, I do not have time for such games, come with me and I shall spair you, otherwise... You will die here..." Mr. Haywood: Not with out a fight...
The man standing behind skull pulls out a knife and stabes at Mr. Haywoods head but it is dodged easily. As a counter attack Skull hits the man with a few karate moves and dazes him. Skull tires easy as he doesn't know how to controll his body to meet that of his oponent, but he fights without showing it... The man hits Skull with a blow knocking him out cold, not so much killing him but leaving him out cold.
A few hours later Skull awakeneds in a room, filled with light and two men standing in front of him. Skull:Agents... What is this? I've done nothing wrong! Agent: Resistance is futile Mr. Haywood. Agent: Mr. Haywood do not resist, you do not understand in the very leist, how much trouble you are really in... Agent: It seems you are aware of the system Mr. Haywood, there for you are of no use as you are... We know that you have been contacted by some "people" they will soon be your best friends.. But no matter what they tell you, we are the gods of this world, and even though you may not understand what this means now, somewhere down the line you will seek to join us, you will understand that we are the human races only chance to be free and without us you would all kill each other... *Agent hits Skull with a gun, knocking him out.*
Two weeks later he becomes a redpill, and a year and a half later, I remember this day and why I choose to become a machine... Not for myself, not for my friends, but for humanity...
