Chapter 738 - Trinity – Gone (VOLUME 4)

Trinity

~~

"No!" I sobbed the word as the blood and dust started to settle. "No!" I couldn't stop saying that over and over again. "No!"

"I killed your precious little babies and your pathetic friends. You couldn't save them. You couldn't protect anyone. You're weak. You're pathetic. You're worthless. You can't do anything Trinity. It's time that you realized that." Hekate was still ranting about what she had done and all I wanted to do was kill her. All I wanted to do was rip her apart. She needed to pay for this. She needed to be punished. ᴛʜɪs ᴄʜᴀᴘᴛᴇʀ ɪs ᴜᴘᴅᴀᴛᴇ ʙʏ novelenglish.net . ꜰirᴇ

"MOMMY!"

"MOMMY! WHERE ARE YOU!?"

"MOMMY! HELP US!"

The sound of those voices, of Zachary, Zander and Zayden, they sounded so real. Like they were still there.

"Oh my, Queen Trinity, you need to see this." I heard Rudy's voice as well.

"Keep fighting, Trinity. It's not over yet." Alexio too? What was going on?

That was when the rest of the aftermath in the air finally settled. I could see blood, pieces of skin, bone fragments, and so much other gore in the aftermath of what had happened. And beyond all of that there was a fractured shield like barrier. And behind that barrier were the three boys and the two men that had come here with me. They were all fine and nothing seemed to be wrong with them at all.

"What? Then how? What happened?"

"Mommy, look!" Zayden was pointing at the place just below the broken barrier. "Mommy! It's Grandfather. He saved us."

He was right too. Just below the broken shield, which hadn't been there when mine broke, there was Edmond. He was laying on the floor. His body was completely broken and nearly cut in half. He had leapt into the path of the blades and put up another shield at the same time. He had saved my boys.

"EDMOND!" I called out for him. He had just started to help me. He had cleansed his soul. He was a good man now. Why did this have to happen to him? "You bitch! You killed Edmond."

"I already said that I was going to kill him. However, I didn't really expect that he was going to jump into the path of my blades. I didn't actually think that he was going to sacrifice his soul to save theirs. But I guess you never know someone, do you? He was a failure. A fucking disappointment. He was nothing but trash. And I took him now. HA! HA! HA! Isn't that funny, Trinity? I took out the trash."

"You're crazy! You're fucking crazy. You bitch! How could you do this? How could you aim to take out the lives of children? And how could you be happy about having murdered a man like that? You're crazy! Fucking crazy."

I was still sobbing. I hadn't wanted him to get hurt in this fight. I never even considered that to be a possibility. I thought that he would be fine. I thought that when this was all done and over with, he would still be fine. I would have hated to send him back to his cell for imprisonment, but now his soul was gone forever.

"Keep fighting, Trinity. Don't let this get to you." Alexio called out to me again. "Don't let her win. Stop her so that your father's sacrifice was not in vain. Kill her! Prove that you're the stronger Goddess. Show her what your humanity can give you. Keep fighting and save your children."

Alexio was right. I needed to keep going. I needed to save them. And the only way to save them was to eliminate Hekate. I still had the chance to rip her apart. I still have the chance to kill her. And it wouldn't at all be considered revenge or an eye for an eye. It would all be the natural course that I was going to take all along. I was going to kill Hekate.

That thought gave me a certain level of clarity. It gave me a peace that I knew was not right for me to have. However, there was nothing that I could do about it. It was what it was and that was it. There was no reason that I should feel shame over it. Not at all. This was just the way that things had to be.

"Hekate, I have said this to you many times already." My voice was a lot more calm and steady than I expected it to be as I stood there, staring at Edmond's mangled body. "But I am going to destroy your soul. I am going to kill you. I am going to stop you from killing anyone else. I am going to save the world from your evil tyranny. I am going to do all of that and I won't even bat an eyelash. And I will take pleasure in making sure that you feel an immense amount of pain while I kill you."

My Little Bunny was looking so hurt and so lost. She had not been expecting this. She went from thinking the same thing that I had in the beginning, that the souls for our boys had been destroyed as well as her two new friends, who I guess I will admit weren't as ugly as I originally said they were. She had thought that Hekate had killed them all. She had thought that they were going to be gone forever and that our babies here in this world would be lost to us. We had all been worried about that as the room that I was in had gone completely silent the moment that the gore started to fly into the air.

But that wasn't what happened. Not at all. We hadn't lost the boys. My Little Bunny hadn't lost her friends. They were all just fine. But one of the triplets pointed out something that none of us had been expecting.

Laying there, just below the kids and the two men, was Edmond. He was dead, again. This time it was his soul that died and not his body. Also, I am not even going to try and figure out how there was blood and gore for the death of a soul. They're just a soul, right? How did they have all of that stuff inside just a soul?

That wasn't relevant right now. What was relevant was the fact that Edmond had given his life to save the children and Trinity's friends. He had sacrificed himself in an act that none of us had ever thought he would do. I don't care how much he seemed to have changed, I didn't believe it until this very moment. I didn't believe that he really was different until just now.

"Oh my Goddess. I cannot believe that Edmond did that." Noah was in just as much shock as I was. "He.. he saved them. Edmond. THE Edmond saved the kids and other men."

"Who would have thought that was a possibility?!" Trevor shook his head. "I lost my brother because of that man, and I will never forgive him because of that, but he still did something here that would at least make me tolerate the man. He saved the boys. That is something that my brother would have done. Evan would have given his life to save your boys. He wouldn't have even thought about it. He would always save a child."

I knew that Trevor had to be having trouble with this. Like he said, he would never forgive Edmond, but the man had truly just done a selfless and redeemable act. I was so torn about it, but more than anything, I was worried about my Little Bunny. She seemed to be nearly broken.

She needed to keep fighting though.. She needed to keep going.
