Chapter 805: EPILOGUE 1 (VOLUME 4)
Reece – Surprise Visit
The night before Trinity’s birthday was quite a shock for me. I didn’t expect this to happen at all, and it took me a little bit to figure out what was going on. I was walking across the room to get into bed with my Little Bunny. She was already asleep, getting in as much as she could before the babies woke us up in the middle of the night again. However, I never made it to bed.
In the middle of the room, I suddenly felt very weak and as light as air. I knew that there was something wrong, but I didn’t know what it could be. Not at first anyway. When my body felt like it was falling to the floor, but I was still looking at the room like I was standing, I started to have an inkling of what it was.
And then, when I was no longer standing there but floating in the air above my body, I knew what it was. I had had this happen to me before. Only it had never happened to me when I was alone. I was with Trinity when this had happened to me.
I was leaving my body. I was going to the celestial realm. I was on my way to visit with a god of some sort. The only thing is, I didn’t know which god or why. What did they want with me? What was going on here? This was insane. I didn’t know what I was going to do when I got there, or if this was a good thing or if I was in some kind of danger.
Honestly, I was scared shitless right about now. I didn’t want to disappear and end up like my Little Bunny. I didn’t want to leave my family for days, weeks or months on end. I couldn’t do that to them, but I couldn’t stop myself from leaving like that.
I guess I now knew what my Little Bunny had been going through every single time she had been pulled from her body and taken to this other realm. This was a feeling of pure powerlessness. I wasn’t able to stop it. I wasn’t able to fight back. I wasn’t able to do anything at all. I was as helpless as my four little babies.
.....
Oh my Goddess. What if these celestials were going to take me away from my family and I was going to have to miss seeing my babies grow up? What if I missed them rolling over for the first time or laughing for the first time? What if I missed their first steps and their first words? What if I missed Talia’s fifth birthday? What if I missed everything that my children were going to do for the rest of their lives? I couldn’t let that happen! I just couldn’t!
I was panicking somewhat when I started to fall through the air above me. And yes, even though I was moving up and away from my bedroom, I was falling. And it felt like I was freefalling as well. There was nothing at all that was trying to stop me or slow me down at all. If I hit the ground like this, immortal werewolf or not, it would definitely kill me. I guess that’s another thing for me to worry about. Was I even going to survive this experience?
Thankfully, not long after I wondered about my survival, the speed at which I was falling started to decrease drastically. I was slowing down and somehow, I flipped over. Instead of looking back toward my home, which I could now barely make out in the distance, I was now facing the ground that was quickly approaching.
When I had gone with my Little Bunny in the past, we had ended up in a beautiful seaside clearing. This place looked like it was in the middle of a dessert. There was nothing but sand and the blinding sun. Where was I? And who was I here to see?
All of a sudden, I slammed into the sand and skidded to a halt. I wasn’t moving as fast as I could have been, and I thanked the Goddess that the sand was soft and broke my fall, but it was still unpleasant. And for another thing, I ended up with sand sliding into some very uncomfortable spots. I hoped that none of this sand went back with me or I would have to shower to get it all out of my crack and other unmentionable areas.
“Welcome, King Reece. We have been waiting for you.” As I struggled to get to my feet, I heard a deep male voice call out from somewhere behind me. I spun around, trying to see what the man looked like and who he might be.
The moment that I was facing the owner of the voice, I saw that there were two men standing there. One of them was tall with the head of a hawk. He was wearing a sun dial on his head with a serpent wrapped around it. He was definitely odd looking, but so was the other man. The man that was standing near the hawk head was tall as well. He had bright, flaming hair. Not that it was a flame red but that it was actually made of flames, yes somehow it looked like hair and there were even a few braids in the burning locks. He had flames on his hands and tattoos on his bare chest that were made from flames. He was wearing old-looking leather with various furs attached to the ends. He looked like some sort of Viking that had been set on fire for some reason.
Just who were these men? And what did they want with me? What was going to happen to me while I was here?
“Why have you been waiting for me?” I asked them with a skeptical tone to my voice.
“We have been watching you and your family. You are an exceptional man. You protect those that you love, and you provide for so many. You are an honorable man.” The Hawk headed man spoke calmly.
“Also, you have an affinity for fire. You are aligned with us, King Reece. And we wish to bind ourselves with you.” The flaming man spoke a little more coarsely with a rougher edge to his voice.
“And who are you exactly? I am sorry, but I am not all that familiar with the various gods.”
“Pardon our intrusion, King Reece. I am Ra, Egyptian god of fire and sun.”
“And I am Hálogi, Norse god of Fire. We, like you, have a gift for the flame. That is why we chose you, Reece. We want you to be our new vessel so that we may be reborn into the world of mortals. Will you, Reece Gray, do us this honor?
I couldn’t believe what I was hearing. These men, these gods, wanted me to take their souls into me. Wasn’t this exactly what had happened to Trinity and Vincent? Oh, and Gabriel too. The three of them had celestial souls inside of them. They were more powerful than they had been before. And now, these gods were asking to do the same for me.
“And what will happen to me if I do say yes? What will change about me?” I may want the power, but I wasn’t about to just say yes without thinking about it first.
“You will gain access to our powers. You will need to work on the methods of accessing it, but when you master it, you will become that much stronger. You will have the souls of gods inside of you, so you yourself will be a god.” Ra spoke in his calm voice, but it was so weird to see. His hawk head showed no emotion at all.
“Will I be like my wife? Will I have the status of a God like her?” I wanted to make sure that I was understanding this right.
“That is right, King Reece. You will be a god with two celestials. Your wife, Goddess Queen Trinity, has three souls inside of her. She will still be more powerful, but you will be a celestial along with her.” Hálogi explained things to me in his rough voice. “Will you help the two of us out? Will you allow us to be reincarnated?”
“Yes. Yes, I will.” I nodded at them and reached out my hand on instinct.
I think that I was planning on shaking their hands, but they both reached out at the same time and grabbed onto my arm. I felt the power from them instantly start to flood into my body. There was a bright orange light that surrounded the three of us as the magic from their bodies entered mine. It was an odd sensation that was making me feel really weird, but I stuck it out and didn’t move at all. I needed to get this done. I needed to be strong enough for this.
When the light faded away, they were gone. Ra and Hálogi were nowhere to be seen. Well, that was understandable. They were inside of me. Well, their souls were. Their bodies were gone forever.
Now that the transfer of power was over, I was being taken back to my home. I was once again falling through the air. My room was coming into view again and soon, I was going to be with my Little Bunny once more. And, thankfully, all that sand that was in uncomfortable places had disappeared. I was glad that it didn’t stay with me when I left that place. Now, I was able to go home and be with my wife in peace. And I got to be a god along with her now. That was pretty cool.
