1073 Chapter 58- Trinity – The Reveal Part 4 (VOLUME 6)

~~

Trinity

~~

The screaming got louder. And louder. And of course, louder. There were more and more voices now. Several people screaming now instead of just one. The humans that were in the audience were either watching fascinated like the nonhumans were, or they were screaming. Even a few of the reporters were screaming, afraid for their lives because they were much closer to us than the others were. Lara was, of course, staring right at me as she watched. She was not one of the people that were screaming.

I decided that it was time for me to shift back into myself, no longer would I be an animal at the moment. I needed them to understand that I was harmless, and so were the others. We still had a long time to go.

“Please, there is no need to scream.” I was myself again, but I wasn’t leaving it at that. I still needed to show them that I was able to perform magic. I started to take a step forward, up onto invisible stairs and platforms. I was using nothing but the air itself, and right there at my side was Rika, walking with me using her new affinity for the wind.

“None of us are here to hurt you. We are not dangerous. And we have lived among all of you for millennia.” Rika spoke into a microphone that she held in her hand as well. Walking beside me she gave them all an earnest, almost pleasing look. She was trying her best to get them to relax and to listen.

“My daughter is telling the truth. We have always been here. As long as the humans have lived on this planet, our people have been here as well. We are not a new addition. We have always been with you. We are not dangerous people. We just want to be ourselves, live with our families, work, and be happy, the same as all of you. We are people, just like you are. We just happen to have a slightly different genetic makeup.”

“AND YOU ARE IMMORTALS!” Lara, the reporter, yelled at me excitedly. I could tell that she was more than ready for this story to hit the presses.

.....

“We are immortals now, yes. That happened several years ago when I took the souls of the three gods inside of me. It caused that change in us all. Prior to that, only the Fae and the Vampires were immortal.”

“VAMPIRES DRINK BLOOD!” A scared man screamed from the stands. “THEY DRINK HUMAN BLOOD AND KILL US!”

“We don’t just drink human blood.” Dietrich said as he responded to the man. The camera focused on him and his pale, pale blue eyes. “We eat food like humans as well. We can feed on humans. And a lot of us are able to go a long time without blood at all. We maintain our souls, and we have families just like the rest of the world. I myself am married and have a family. I wouldn’t trade them for the world.”

“YOU HAVE CHILDREN?!” Someone screamed from the crowd. “SOMEONE LET YOU ADOPT THEM!?”

“I have four biological children. And four that are adopted as well. The adopted children are different supernatural children that needed a family of their own. We are a very loving family.” He explained to them. “All of us up here have a family in one way or another. We are just like the rest of you. We want to make sure that we have all that life has to offer us.”

“We are not bad people.” I reiterated this for them. “Please understand that. We are just people. We have always been here. And in truth, with all of our numbers combined on this planet, there are more of us than there are humans on the planet. We have a very large population, and the fact that we have been here this whole time, that should tell you that we are not going to hurt you.”

“Wh..wh..why are you telling us about yourselves now?” A woman that was visibly trembling in the front of the stands stuttered out.

“Would you want to hide what you are forever? In the interest of not having to hide away for years because we do not look the ages that we are, we wanted to tell the world about us. Also, there are some people that think because we assisted a law enforcement group in the investigation of those serial murders this past summer, that we are up to no good.”

“So, you did investigate because of another reason.” Lara latched onto my words immediately.

“The reason that we investigated Lara, is because we wanted the murders to stop. Not only that, but that cult group was murdering my people. They were killing werewolves, bears, felines, witches, Fae, vampires. Each and every victim of the Jaegan that were killed, all of those people that were murdered over the summer, they were my people. And as their queen, I wanted to desperately put an end to what was happening. I visited each and every murder scene. I collected evidence that the humans weren’t capable of finding. And we tracked down the killers. They confessed, you saw that, so you know that we didn’t just pin the murders on them. And thankfully, with them gone, there hasn’t been another murder. We can all live in peace now. I can breathe easier knowing that my people are not going to be killed anymore.”

“You have said that a few times now. That you are their queen. How did that come to be?” Lara asked as if this was just a normal press conference.

“I was the Goddess Incarnate. Essentially, the previous goddess of our people chose me to lead her people. I am only the second Goddess Incarnate that she has ever chosen, but I accepted my role without question. I learned all that I could and have led my people into prosperity.”

“So, you’re a queen with no castle?” A male reporter laughed next to Lara.

“I have quite a large castle. It’s in the mountains of our estate. We cloak it with magic though, so most humans won’t be able to see it.”

“O..oh.” The man’s face paled as if he hadn’t expected me to answer him.

“How are we supposed to trust you?” A human in the audience called out to me. “How are we supposed to trust that you won’t just try to kill all of us?” She was a little hysterical as she called out to me.

“Have we tried hurting you before?” I asked her earnestly and calmly. Showing her that her question wasn’t getting to me at all. “We have always lived here with you. How many times do you think that you can confirm that someone was killed by a nonhuman? In fact, several times over the centuries, we have had groups that police our people. If they start to harm humans, or even just get a little too unstable, we will arrest them and deal with them. In the past, the policing groups would kill the bad eggs, but we do not do that now, not unless we absolutely have to. And that is no different than someone that has been arrested being sentenced to the death penalty. We are a civilized people. We just want to make the world aware that we are here.”

“WHY!?” Another voice yelled. “WHY DO WE NEED TO KNOW ABOUT YOU!? WHY WAS ALL OF THIS NECESSARY!?”

“As I said before, sir, we just do not want to hide anymore. It will be so much easier moving forward, if the entire world is on the same page. The creatures of myths and legends exist. We are here. We have always been here. And we aren’t going away. Nor are we going to hurt you. We just want to live peaceful and relatively stress free lives.”

“OK, say we buy that, what is going to change?” That same male reporter from earlier spoke up again.

“Nothing is going to change. Aside from the fact that you know that not everyone you have met is a human. They are still going to be the same people though. No one is going to behave differently at all. Maybe some people will stop hiding their brightly colored eyes and hair, letting their natural appearances show through, but other than that, nothing at all will change in the world. It’s just simply a case of added knowledge.”

“I DON’T CARE! I THINK THAT YOU ARE MONSTERS! AND THERE IS NO WAY THAT THERE ARE MORE OF YOU THAN THERE ARE OF US!” A man was screeching uncontrollably at us. “YOU ARE MONSTERS, FREAKS, CRIMINALS, AND ALL YOU WANT TO DO IS KILL US ALL! WE ARE ALL GOING TO BE DOOMED! WE NEED TO GET OUT OF HERE! ALL OF US! IF WE DON’T, THEN WE WILL NOT BE PREPARED FOR WHEN THEY LAUNCH THEIR ATTACK ON US!”

The man’s trembling body was already moving as he spoke. He was one of the people that were going to call us horrible names and never trust us. That was fine though. We knew that not everyone would love us. And not only that, but he was telling the people that we were going to attack them. When we don’t attack them, and they see that we are peaceful, this will just help us in the end. We will not be provoked by these people, and we will not resort to violence and war. We will be calm. We will be noble. No matter what happens, we will do our best to prove that we are not a threat.

That man wasn’t the only one that left at that moment. Several of the other humans that were gathered got up and followed after the man in a hurried run. They left while constantly looking over their shoulder. They must have expected that we were going to follow them and attack them all right now. They were scared though, so I wasn’t going to blame them.

Some of these people that were scared were going to calm down and see the error of their ways. Some of these calm people were going to realize that they are scared and switch sides. And hopefully, many of them would remain neutral so that we could have a semblance of peace in the world.

Just as I thought that, a man rose to his feet. I saw instantly that it was Ewan, from the diner.

“I HAVE KNOWN THE GRAYS FOR A LONG TIME! AND BEFORE ME MY GRANNY KNEW THEM! THEY ARE GOOD PEOPLE! THEY HELP EVERYONE THAT THEY CAN! AND THEY ARE GENUINELY CARING TOWARD EVERYONE! I KNOW THAT THEY RUN CHARITIES ALL OVER THE COUNTRY, AND THAT WITHOUT THEM THERE WOULD BE A LOT MORE HOMELESS AND HUNGRY PEOPLE IN THIS WORLD! I THINK THAT WE ALL NEED TO GIVE THEM A SHOT!”

At his words, the nonhumans that were in the crowd stood and started to cheer for us. It couldn’t have gone any better at that moment if we had paid Ewan to say that. It wasn’t planned though. He had risen to his feet and decided to defend us on his own.

“Thank you, Ewan.” I spoke into the microphone. “We love your restaurant, and always have.”

I was going to say more. I had a lot I could say about all the humans that we had known in this city, but at that moment, there was a loud crashing sound outside the stadium. One of the guards that we had stationed there, Kiernan, came running inside in a panic.

“There are hundreds of protestors outside, Queen Trinity. They are driving cars into the side of the building now.” There was another loud crash as he said that.

“It won’t be safe for these people to leave, not with them out there. They won’t know who is human and who isn’t.” I called out to him.

“The building is surrounded, Queen Trinity. I don’t know what to do.” As he spoke, several other guards came running into the room. Their job titles were clear to them. They needed to protect the people that were in here, not necessarily the building.

“Th..they will kill us all.” A woman screeched in the audience and the panic started to deepen among all those that were gathered in the crowd. “We’re all going to die.”

I wouldn’t let that happen. I couldn’t let that happen. I needed to save these people. We would prove to them that we were not the villains. These people that were attacking the stadium, they would use anything that they could to skew the views of the people. If we didn’t stay ahead of them, if we let them win here and now, then there was no coming back from this. I knew that, and I was certain that Reece and the others knew it too. The adrenaline that was coursing through me right now had absolutely nothing to do with fear, and almost everything to do with the electrically charged atmosphere.
