Neo stood in front of a door, it is just a original door, no different than any others, but he knows by the time he enter this door, he will change the world, he will save millions of life, he will free mankind.
Neo took a deep breath, and than open the door with the key in his hand, the only key for this door, the key which the Keymaker sacrificed his life for it. The door grew like a thousand of lights, he knew now is the time, he walk toward the light with nothing but peace in his heart.
Behind the light a cold, humorless man sitting in the middle of a large empty room.
"Hello Neo." The man spoke with no facial expression.
"You know my name." Neo said.
"Of course, I designed you."
"Excuse me!?"
The man raises both his hands. "I'm The Architect, the creator of the Matrix and u will ask me..."
"Why are you here?" Neo's eyes twinkled, he felt like he is a 12 years old boy standing in front of the principal.
"That is not important, the most important question is your true purpose to be here." Architect replied. "You think you know the answer for this question- you are here because you believe you can stop the war between humans and machines."
Neo look straight into Architect's eyes. "Then are you here to stop me?"
"Why should I stop you if I'm the one who guided you here." Architect said.
Neo shook his head. "I believe it was the Oracle who guided me here."
"Yes, of course, the Oracle, the fortune teller. She is a program, this is her purpose, and her job is to guide you here. Did you notice all the people you met somehow helped you to reach here? Oracle guided you in everyway, Keymaker who sacrificed his life for you, and of course, Trinity." Architect pointed to one side of the wall, Trinity stood there cover with blood.
"Trinity!" Neo shouted. The only women he ever truly loved, he knows that is just an image, but his heart stumbled.
"Tell me Neo, what is real? Not long ago you live in the world of Matrix; you believe your senses there, everything you see, you hear, the taste, the smell, and the pain. And than you woke up, you believe Matrix just a virtual reality, your real world was destroy by machines. You believe you will save Zion, an underground city, which house a quarter of million people, you believe you are Neo, The One. Do you really know what is real? What if I tell you everything you believed was a lie?"
"What?"
Neo look around and realized he is no longer in the room, he is inside Zion, and people are everywhere.
"Remember you were told when Matrix first built, a man was born inside who can remake the Matrix. And than he die like every human, but he will born once again and free mankind from the Matrix? It was just a lie." Architect said. "It was back at around 2050, you already know the human destroy the sky, but there was never a war between mankind and machines, it was a war between humans themselves."
Neo saw it this time, Architect raise one of his hand and the background suddenly change, and they are now in the middle of a battleground, jets in the sky, tanks driven beside them.
"Humans create Artificial intelligence to serve them. Artificial intelligence then creates the Matrix, not a prison for the mind but instead a heaven for human to live happy ever after." Architect said.
Neo laughed."Bullshit, what about the human energy fields? They are all over the world."
Architect nodded. "You believe they are tools for the machines to draw the life out of human beings as their energy source, but they are in fact created so humans can survive in this unlivable earth. We have the Matrix for human minds but human can't survive without the body. Machines have to follow orders that form from the Three Laws of Robotics. A robot may not injure a human being or, through inaction, allow a human being to come to harm; A robot must obey orders given to it by human beings, except where such orders would conflict with the First Law; A robot must protect its own existence as long as such protection does not conflict with the First or Second Law."
"I saw machines try to break into Zion, I saw machines hunting us down one by one." Neo shouted.
"There once was a wise man said that man is innately evil, all people are born with natural tendencies toward a taste for beauty and profit, a susceptibility to hate and jealousy." Architect raises his hand and they are back to the empty room. "Humans never get enough of anything, they always want more and more, the first Matrix I designed was a perfect world, everyone got what they need, but perhaps too perfect for humans, they refused to accept the fact that there are no need for more, in result we lose them. So I have to redesign the Matrix one after one to fit the human basic needs, hunger for power and money. Zion was then create as a sub Matrix to suit the resistance part of human minds, Zion is the opposite of Matrix, the negative part, a quarantine zone for minds."
"So Zion is not real?" Neo breathe heavily.
"It bring out the main question, the question you been looking for, the reason why you are here. Neo, you should aware by now, you are nothing but a program of Matrix..."
"No! No! I don't believe you." Neo muttered to himself.
"Your purpose is to reboot the Matrix when it is in danger, you been giving powers in Matrix to fulfill this purpose, that makes you The One. Every time the resistance human minds in the Zion had grown strong enough to threaten the main Matrix itself, you will be born and guided to here, to end everything." Architect said.
"What if I say no?" Neo felt sick.
Architect gave him a blank look. "If you fault to do so, the system will collapse, Matrix and Zion will be destroy, approximate 99% of human beings will die."
Something rose in Neo’s throat, at first he didn’t know what it was, and then he did. It was a scream. Which he swallowed.
“As the human resistance growing, Matrix will become more and more unstable, error numbers will arise, and more and more programs will get infected. A failed security program is already threatened both Matrix and Zion.” Architect said.
A growing door appeared behind Architect.
"This is the truth, your question is not about making choices or what you believe now, is about your purpose to be here, your purpose is to reach the Source, to reboot Matrix. Your path is set since the day you born, this is your destiny, Neo."
Neo stood there for most a minute, what Architect said keep repeating in his head, there is war in his heart. Angry, hurt, more one than the other, he couldn’t tell which.
Suddenly he understood, it took a while but he finally understood, no one can escape from his or her destiny, he will save mankind one way or the other.
In the end, it only took Neo a couple of seconds to reach the door, with a smiled, he walks forward and follow the light.
Neo took a deep breath, and than open the door with the key in his hand, the only key for this door, the key which the Keymaker sacrificed his life for it. The door grew like a thousand of lights, he knew now is the time, he walk toward the light with nothing but peace in his heart.
