Cinn: If anyone other than me watched this on Sunday, scrapheap challenge inspired me to write this. Nothing wrong with that though... And if you read it you'd probably guess. It's basically a crossover sorta thing. But only with matrix characters. Morpheus is the guy who hosts scrapheap challenge, and Niobe is Lisa. And the teams are in fours. Neo, Trinity, Switch and Mouse Vs Mero, Perse, One and Two. Oracle and the Architect are the "experts". They might go a bit hypa, I don't have ANY idea what's gonna happen.

***********************************************************************

Morpheus: Your task for the day, or 10 hours, is going to be to build a wheely car, but entirely out of scrap.

Trinity: Should be easy enough. * muttering, and being optimistic. *

Niobe: There are experts waiting for you at your base, or work site. Leather Lovers, you've got the Oracle. Programs, you've got The Architect.

Morpheus: When the destroy ball is released, you have exactly 10 hours to build the best wheely car you can. 3... 2... 1...

Niobe: * releases destroy ball. *

Neo+Trinity+Switch+Mouse: * run to where Oracle is. *

Mero: * runs to where the Architect is. *

One+Two: * phase through the walls to where Architect is. *

Perse: * walks carefully to her base. *

Oracle: Well I'm not used to building cars of any sort but I reckon, the best way is to get a BIG engine, and lots of weight and some sort of shassy, then we assemble them in this basic order and shape. * draws on the board a triangular shassy, adds wheels, a big engine at the wider end of the triangle, then a big blob round the engine. *

Mouse: What's the blob?

Trinity: Her. * muttering *

Oracle: * doesn't hear Trinity. * It's the weight we're gonna collect that'll hopefully pull the rest of it into a wheely.

Switch: Uh huh.

Meanwhile...

Mero: Hurry up! Just start without her.

Architect: OK. We need some sort of 4 by 4 shassy, to make it easier to steer, with brake steering. An engine, a FAST one. A bar at the back to stop it going to far back. and a bit of weight at the back for the wheely.

Perse: * who's just arrived after picking her way though the dirt. * What?

One+Two: We're building this... * have a quick fight over the white board pen, Two wins, and draws a basic drawing of what the architect said, and one labels it. *

Perse: Who's doing the searching?

Mero: We are!

Perse: I'm not going through the scrap! I'll get my dress dirty!

One+Two: * roll eyes. *

Back to the other base...

Trinity: I'll drive the quad.

Neo: No I'm driving it!

Trinity: You can't drive and you'll have it over in no time!

Neo: I'll go get a roll bar then. * gets off it. *

Trinity: * jumps on. * Really?

Neo: Damn.

Switch+Mouse: * jump in the trailer. * Just go!

Neo: * jumps on behind Trinity. *

Oracle: Good luck.

Other team...

One+Two: * phase and go search through the scrap. *

Mero: Come on perse, you can clean it when we get back to the chateau if you get it dirty!

Perse: No! I don't want to ruin it!

Mero: this might be better. * clicks his fingers, and Perse is then wearing a bright orange T-shirt, and fluorescent pink skirt. *

Perse: HEY!

Mero: It won't matter if you get mucky now!

Perse: Suppose.

Scrapheap...

Switch: This'd get us a shassy!

Mouse: Yeah, but how many robin reliants have you seen do a wheely!

Switch: Not many.

Mouse: Like, none.

Switch: No... Trinity once drove a wheely in a robin reliant.

Mouse: Really! Trinity!

Trinity: Yeah?

Mouse: Did you once do a wheely in a robin reliant?

Trinity: Erm.. Yeah. By accident.

Neo: And you call me a bad driver!

Trinity: I did have 3 agents after me, and a few cops!

Neo: And you were in a robin reliant!

Trinity: Only thing around!

Switch: It was very funny though! Here will this do for our shassy?

Trinity: Yeah! Let's get it out!

1/4 hour later

Morpheus: What's your plan then?

One+Two: * who'd returned with an engine big enough for their car. * We're building a wheely car, like you told us to.

Morpheus: What sort though... Like what exactly are you using and stuff...?

One: That is for us to know...

Two: ...And you to find out.

Morpheus: * leaves. *

1/4 hour later

Trinity+Neo+Switch+Mouse: * drag robin reliant into the work are. *

Oracle: Where is the cooker! We're all gonna starve I tell you! And it means I can't cook any cookies!

Neo: What was that about cookies?

Trinity: We're not here to eat! We're hear to show the programs we're better than them, again.

Niobe: * enters after hearing the oracle shouting. * What's the problem?

Oracle: There's nowhere for me to bake any cookies! We're all gonna starve!

Niobe: We supply sandwiches midway through, and there's a drink machine

there, * points * if you get thirsty.

Oracle: But my team's gonna starve without food before lunch, they need to keep up their strength!

Trinity: Stop acting like our grandmother and do something useful...

Neo: Bad idea!

Oracle: Fine! * picks up sledge hammer and bashes the robin reliant so the frame comes off. producing some very loud bangs, thuds and other noises that practically deafen the rest of the team. *

Trinity: Ow! Shut-Up!

Oracle: * Stops *

Trinity: Couldn't there be a cooker somewhere so she could go away!

Niobe: Sorry, but no. What are you making, for your wheely car...?

Trinity: Erm... That * point's at the oracle's marvellous piece of art. *

Niobe: Could you please explain it to me?

Switch: This, * circling the triangle. * is going to be the shassy, which we're getting from the robin reliant. The engine, * circles the square. * And this is going to be the weight to pull us into a wheely, * circles to blob. * Though we really only need a ramp, and Trinity driving...

Trinity: Hey! That was pretty cool what I did!

Switch: You managed to blow it up though...

Trinity: So...?

Niobe: What about the bar to stop you doing a back flip in it?

Mouse: Erm... No one told us about anything to do with that...

Neo+Trinity+Switch+Mouse: * all glare at the oracle. *

Oracle: What! Cookie anyone? * pulling 5 cookies out of her bag. *

Neo+Mouse: ME!

Trinity+Switch: * look at each other then get back to what they were doing before Niobe came. *

Oracle: * dishes out cookies to Neo, Mouse and Niobe, Niobe gets two. *

Niobe: * Leaves. * Hey want a cookie?

Morpheus: Thanks, where'd you get 'em from?

Niobe: Oracle.

Morpheus: Oh. What are they doing?

Niobe: A robin reliant.

Morpheus: * laughs. * A robin reliant doing a wheely!

Niobe: * giggles * Yeah.

Morpheus: Get a camera for the day.

Niobe: Yeah, what about them, * points to the programs. *

Morpheus: 4 by 4 shassy, and the rest I don't know. they won't say, though they had a bigish engine...

Niobe: Oh.

Scrapheap...

Mero: You found a metal bar, yet?

Perse: No why do we need one anyway? * picking her way through the scrap heap. *

Mero: To stop us flying backwards.

Perse: Oh.

Trinity+Mouse: * come past on quad looking for an engine. But start laughing so Trinity nearly knocks Perse down. *

Perse: Watch it!

Trinity: What's with the fashion statement?

Perse: It's so I don't get my dress dirty. * continues picking her way through the scrap. *

Trinity: Good god woman! It won't kill you to get dirty! * drives through the patch of dirt next to Perse. *

Perse: HEY! That'll ruin my outfit! * waves metal pole at Trinity and Mouse. *

Mero: * oblivious to the resent event. * Hey you found one! That's perfect!

Perse: * blushes * It's just my natural talent at finding perfect things, and of course being perfect.

Mero: * rolls eyes and takes the pole from her and heads back to the base. *

Perse: * follows Mero. *

Other base...

Switch: EEEEK!

Neo: * has found a mini flame thrower. * (dun dun duuuuun)

Trinity+Mouse: * return. *

Trinity: Neo, what are you doing?

Neo: Playing.

Mouse: Cool! Flame thrower!

Trinity: I think there's drugs in those cookies.

Switch: I know. Oracle have you put drugs in the cookies?

Oracle: Nope. Just chocolate, and coco powder. Along with cookie mixture.

Trinity: Ah! Did I mention to you that coco powder makes Neo HYPA!Too much caffeine in it for him. He can't handle much.

Switch: I think the same applies to Mouse, or maybe just boys in general.

Trinity: hmmm. Are you two idiots gonna do somet or not!

Neo: What do you want us to do? * forgets to watch the mini flame thrower so nearly burns mouse. *

Mouse: HEY! Watch out!

Neo: Sorry.

Switch: How about weld the bar on the back of the shassy...

Neo: OK. I'll do that.

Trinity: Switch could you go and look for something we could use as weight on the back?

Switch: Alright, who going with me?

Trinity: You're going on your own.

Switch: but...!

Trinity: I'm the captain of this team and you'll do as I say!

Switch: OK. * hops on the quad and leaves. *

5 hours later

Morpheus: Here, I have a present for you! * hands them a standard seat so they don't do any damage to themselves. *

Mero: Hey it's perfect for the job!

One: Duh, It's...

Two: ... Supposed to be!

Meanwhile...

Niobe: Here. * hands a exact replica of the seat that Morpheus had to the other team. *

Trinity: Thanks.

Mouse: How are we gonna connect the engine to the axis?

Trinity: Erm... Dunno.

Neo: Like this... * draws on the whiteboard. * We'll use chains, all we need though is two cogs that are exactly the same size, and everything. And a chain which is attached to that engine switch found... And a bar to connect it, someone'll have to hunt for one. It has to be exactly... * measures thingy he's supposed to. * 1.5cm thick.

Switch: Let me guess, I'll have to search for it?

Trinity: If you're offering...

Switch: Might as well, how hard can it be..?

2 hours later...

Switch: * returns with the right bar. * What did I say about it not being too hard..?

Morpheus: * speaking into loudspeaker. * Teams you have 2 hours remaining, that's 2 hours remaining.

Neo: * drops his drink onto the floor in shear surprise. * Alright let's get working!

Trinity: The rest of us were!

Neo: Whatever.

Meanwhile, in the programs camp...

Mero: All right, we're gonna have to get this finished quickly. Perse, ignore the oil and work!

Perse: But...!

Mero: No arguing, you're gonna get dirty and that's final!

2 hours later...

Niobe: * presses the beeper. *

Morpheus: Down your tools, turn off you equipment. Your times up! Tomorrow you'll race head to head to see who's built the best wheely car. Join us after the break to see who wins...

**********

Next day, after the tinkering time...

Trinity: * is sitting in their robin reliant, waiting for the beeper to tell her to start. *

Morpheus: * presses the beeper. *

Trinity: * Starts up the engine, but because they have an oversized engine, she gets thrown backwards in the robin reliant, and ends up trying to drive the thing upside down. Only she's upside down, not the car. *

Switch: Oh god.

Mouse: What's new?

Switch: Not much.

Trinity: * finishes the track, very well considering what position she was in. She didn't crash though... * That was COOL! C-O-O-L!

Niobe: Well, that was pretty good. You beat the other teams time. so that's one point to the leather lovers.

Morpheus: The obstacle course is next, do they think they'll win?

Niobe: I think they do, they've just opted to go first. Well everyone but the driver.

Morpheus: I'll bet.

Next round, programs go...

Morpheus: Have they fixed their earlier problem, cos they had some trouble staying up in the wheely...?

Niobe: They say they have, but the proof of the pudding's in the eating.

Morpheus: What sorta pudding? Sticky toffee? * licks his lips. *

Niobe: It's a saying...

Morpheus: Oh.

1 min later...

Niobe: They completed that round in 27 seconds. So it's all even, everything depends on the last race...

Morpheus: I know, but who's your money on?

Niobe: Dunno, but I'd like the robin reliant to win, cos it's so cool!

Morpheus: I agree, but I have a feeling, the programs will win.

Niobe: Me too.

As they started their engines, but kept the brakes on. Perse, who wanted revenge for Trinity covering her in mud, was driving the program's, and Trinity was driving for the leather lovers.

Niobe: 3... 2... 1...

Morpheus: * presses the buzzer. *

Trinity: * fly's back and ends up using the floor to see out. *

Perse: * sets off very slowly, but goes flying sideways into Trinity and her robin reliant. Then picks up speed and finishes the race quickly. *

Trinity: * after receiving a base from Perse goes flying into the field next to the track and ends up with the robin reliant upside down. *

But just before the programs start celebrating their victory, Niobe walks up to them to say they fowled and that the leather lovers got an

automatic win.

One+Two: * chase Niobe with switchblades. *

Niobe: EEEEEK! * runs. *

***********************************************************************

Cinn: Don't worry, Niobe doesn't actually get killed. I might do more challenges between the two teams, but this was just a funny thought last weeks scrapheap challenge gave me. If you want me to write more tell me with reviews. And I had no idea what would happen, but I hoped you liked it. Please tell me whether you did or not too. And I'm sorry about the lining and spacing, i spell checked it and word didn't like it so it rearranged everything, so I apologise.
