deval() returns a matrix with one row for each state variable, and one column for each time evaluated at.
You are using linear indexing with small indices, so you are extracting data from the first column -- which is the column associated with the initial time. So your first column should correspond to the initial conditions that were used. It should not be surprsing if those come out as 0.
