Erleuchtet

oh ok

uh... I missed something ... Or we still going in to meet the program Dryden at this certain time and place?? Or is that delayed...?

i thought we were but i lost him in transmission or something...

A beacon appears on the operator's consols, it is a distress signal...... abondon swears, the messag reads "Crew ... dead.....on.y...surv..or...I nav..gator.. only...eft......help....it came from above....---"

Captain, this sounds like trouble.

What's your call?

Priest, awaiting orders.

Crash, set out for the distress signal, but make sure to continually sweep for Sentinels...Well, crew, this is it, although i wanted to do some more training, in the field, so to speak, but this is more important. Erleuchtet is online, and we are out. Captain out.

**And Simple becomes Priest once more... kneeling, praying, then rising to his feet with a new firmness in his face -- and in his heart. He will win. He must.**

Captain -- this is Priest,
Ready for action!

*Always ready*

[The corner of 5th and 10th : Midnight]

I stand in the rain shivering and rubbing my hands together, the echo of thunder raids the streets.

*walking out of the shadows* I have not called you here randomly. i know that you are searching, for answers, for truth. I have come to give you that truth, however, the truth comes at a price, as all things do... I offer the truth, nothing more nothing less...Do you want to know the answer ot your question? Do you want to know what the Matrix is?

*crackle of lightning*

..Yes... What is the matrix?

*Smiles* Follow me.
*walks around corner, into dark alleyway. A set of headlights suddenly is illuminated in front of nox and JediHDM. Jedi motions for nox to get in the back, while Jedi gets in front passenger beside the driver, Simple. They drive for a short distance, then get out and climb five stories inside an old apartment building. Jedi turns around, and motions for nox to come in front of him.* I give you one chance, one shot at the truth. You take the red pill, and i show you the truth. You take the blue pill, and you are free to leave, continuing your existence here. I leave the choice to you, however, once you make your decision, there is no turning back...

I look side to side... two possibilities... one choice. Is this a crazy man? No, ofcourse not, I can feel it. There is something behind those daunting chrome shades and chilling coat, a presence that isn't threatening but welcoming.

Speechlessly I slowly motion a hand toward the red pill, i pause and stare at Jedi's face. There was a grin. I quickly grab the red pill and drop it on the back of my tongue. I turn and hold the glass that seemed to appear out of nowhere and wash the pill down my throat.

I sit and expect the worst, some kind of nausia, migrane or swirling of colours... nothing. I look up at Jedi, confound.

*grinning* Come. *I stand and procede through a side door into another room, beside the one we are in. I walk up to a chair, and step to the side, motioning for nox to sit.* That pill you took is part of a trace program, allowing us to interupt your input/output signal so we can know exactly where you are located. Do not worry, we've done this before. *I help strap nox in* Have you ever felt like you were dreaming, while you know you are awake? That, the world around you is not real, while you are very much alive?

AHEM!

I hope this is not an attempt at interactive story creating or role-playing.

(looks at thread)

Yes it IS... ok, here's the rule. Such threads do NOT belong here, a discussion area for the film. They belong in the role-play area and can only be opened with permission from the mod of that area, and before you ask, that's me.

So if someone wants to ask me about this sort of thing, that may well be fine and I might move this there, other than that, this thread is closed until then.

And whilst this may be chancing it a little at this point, there is actually an in-depth Matrix RP starting up inside the RP area right now...

Closing.
