   Summary

   The feeling hadn't left.

   Neo rubbed his wrist, the phantom burn still tingling beneath the skin. He looked at Trinity, seeing the concern in her eyes, the love she offered so freely.

   He wanted to tell her. He wanted to say that he had looked into the face of his enemy and seen a reflection of himself. He wanted to say that he was no longer alone in his head.

   He couldn't.
