The Sentinels fell at Neo, who never faltered or looked away, constantly holding his gaze on the nearest Sentinel. Its tentacles reached out

Suddenly, it seized up, along with the other Sentinels. Electrical currents ran around and inside it metallic body, frying every network

The Sentinels fell, their lenses shutting down. Neo swayed on the spot, before he too fell over, unconscious. Trinity and the other crew members rushed to his aid

"What the hell did he just do?" asked Dan

"Saved our lives," answered Blade

Neo was still breathing. Blade, Dan and Link stood as guards, their rifles ready to shoot any arriving Sentinels

"Now what? Zion is too far away for us to carry him," cried Trinity

There was a distinctive sound of distress and sadness in her voice. Blade didn't blame her

"Don't worry about it," said Dan

"What the hell do you mean, 'don't worry about it'?" asked Trinity

"Because help is here"

Everyone looked up. The Hammer descended slowly and landed, as the hatch opened

"Hello there," called out Dan

"We were sent out to find you and we found you after we heard an explosion"

"That was the Sentinels blowing us up," said Blade

"What happened to them?" asked the Captain

Blade looked at Morpheus. He nodded slightly

"They were destroyed, but some strange twist of fate"

"Well, things are getting strange"

"Why?" asked Morpheus

"While we were looking for you, we got a call for help," said the Captain, "we went, but we found something worse"

"What?" asked Dan

"Five hovercrafts were ready to take out the army of Sentinels. Someone set of an EMP too early. It wasn't a fight, more like a massacre"

"You're joking?" said Blade

"But it gets strange. There was one survivor"

"One survivor. Sentinels killed everyone and don't leave anyone alive"

"That's why we think it's strange. How could someone survive a Sentinel attack?"

Trinity gazed at Neo's still face, wanting him to wake up and embrace her. He had save her life and everyone else's, there was no need for him to die

"Let's leave him be and have a rest"

Trinity nodded. She left Neo's bed with a longing look, barely looking at the other occupant. He had been found in the wreck of the five hovercrafts, his body not moving at all. Trinity had met him only once, but didn't like him. His name was Bane
