The Matrix – Desert of the Real World

"So, you all want to know what the Matrix is?" Zack asked.

"Yes," Port said.

"An explanation would indeed be useful," Ozpin said.

"I really want to know how things led to that fate for humanity," Ironwood said.

"Well, ok then," Zack said.

Oscar, newly rescued by Ozpin and his crew, was in a robe as Ozpin walked towards him.

"You wanted to know what the Matrix is, didn't you?" Ozpin asked. "Ruby."

Ruby guided Oscar to an old and torn chair with high tech equipment on it.

Oscar sat in the chair and Ruby strapped him in as the others prepared.

Ozpin placed his hand on Oscar. "Try to relax."

Ozpin had Oscar lie down. "This will feel a little weird."

A cable was inserted into the port at the back of Oscar's head, who gave out a silent scream.

Ozpin looked at one of the men, who pressed 'LOAD'.

Oscar opened his eyes and found himself standing in an empty, blank-white space.

"Whoa," Oscar said.

"That's a drastic change in background," Coco said.

"Are they back in the Matrix?" Velvet asked.

"No, just something similar," Zack said.

"Well, whoever designed that needs some decorating lessons," Yang said.

"It's a highly realistic virtual reality," Weiss said. "I think they can make it look however they want."

"All white does send home the message that they're no longer in the normal world," Blake said.

"This is the Construct," Ozpin said.

Startled, Oscar whipped around and found Ozpin now in the room with him. Ozpin was dressed in a smart black suit with a green tie and was wearing sunglasses.

"It is our loading program," Ozpin said. "We can load anything from clothing, to equipment, weapons, training simulations. Anything we need."

Ozpin walked forward and suddenly there were two chairs, a television, a small table and a remote between the two of them where there wasn't before.

"Well, that's useful," Ruby said.

"I wonder what kind of simulations they can run," Clover said.

"A lot," Zack said. "They can also tell physics to take a walk if they want to."

"What, they could fly if they wanted to?" Saphron asked.

"Among other things," Zack said.

"None of it is real though," Robyn said.

"Right now, we're inside a computer program?" Oscar asked.

"Is it really so hard to believe?" Ozpin asked. "Your clothes are different, the plugs in your arms and head are gone."

Oscar looked and found that his hands were plug free.

"Your hair has changed."

Oscar felt his head.

"Your appearance now is what we call residual self-image," Ozpin explained. "It is the mental projection of your digital self."

"That explains it," Penny said.
