"YOU DARE TO SPEAK TO ME THAT WAY! YOU DARE TO SPEAK TO A GODDESS AS OLD AND POWERFUL AS ME IN SUCH A MANNER! I WILL DESTROY YOU, TRINITY GRAY. I WILL DESTROY EVERYTHING THAT YOU LOVE BECAUSE OF YOUR INSOLENCE!"

The moment that I threatened Hekate, I felt the air around me become icy cold. I was not usually affected by the cold at all. especially not since I had gained various ice abilities. However, even I thought that this was way too cold. It was almost enough to freeze me in place, and I could tell that the three little imp boys were feeling the cold as well.

"I need to do something." I said the words out loud to myself as all three sets of those familiar looking eyes gazed up at me with pitiful, helpless expressions.

If these little imp boys were Reagan, Rika, or Talia, I would never let this happen to them. I would never let anything bad happen to them. So, that would stand to reason that I couldn't let something like this happen to these little imp boys either. I needed to protect them, to save them. I needed to protect these little Reece looking babies.

"Dammit! If only I had my magic right now. If only I could wrap these little ones in a protective barrier I could-." I stopped right then and there because I was too shocked by what I saw. As I had been saying those words, I had envisioned what would happen if I had been able to perform magic in that moment. And it was actually happening.

The three little boys were all suddenly inside their own little bubble. The bubbles looked like they were made out of such fragile things, but they were actually quite strong, judging by how thick they felt when I reached out and touched them.

And to top it all off, those little bubbles were warm to the touch. It felt so much warmer next to the bubbles than it had when Hekate's icy air was buffeting around me.

"Are you warmer now?" I asked the three little imp boys. They didn't speak, just the same as before, but they nodded their heads. I tried to focus on them and their answers instead of the fact that my magic seemed to have worked. I didn't know if it was a one time thing here or not, so I didn't want to get my hopes up at all.

"Oh, how sickeningly sweet. You are being so nice to three little lost souls. Well, maybe I will destroy them first. Maybe I will take them away from you before I escape this eternal hell and destroy the world you once knew. I will enjoy tearing them limb by limb and devouring the deliciousness of their souls. I will make a snack out of those three before I take over the world and feast to my heart's content."

This bitch was fucking bat shit crazy. What the hell was she talking about? I didn't know right now, but I knew that I needed to stop her. I needed to keep her here in her hell forever.

"I have a present for you, Trinity. I will end you right here and right now. I will make it quick and painless for you."

"Oh gee, thanks Hekate. That sounds like it would be so wonderful. Only, you know, I don't really feel like having any gifts right now. It's not my birthday and it's not Christmas. Damn, it looks like I will have to wait."

'OK Trinity, do you think that you might be able to tone down that sarcasm? We do not know what she will do. We do not even know what she is capable of doing. We need to be careful. We need to tread carefully.' The other me spoke up, obviously not happy with the turn of events.

"You will have no choice, Trinity. You will see what it is that I can do. You will see what kind power the Goddess of Darkness possesses."

After Hekate finished her little threat, I heard something that sounded like millions of crows and ravens scream through the air. I figured that this was the entirety of Hekate's plan coming together.

"Lost souls need a shepherd." I could barely hear Hekate above the sound of the birds. Not to mention, I was too busy looking around me for the swarm of birds that was obviously making their way toward me. From the sound of them, they were coming at me from all angles. I was going to need to protect the three little imp boys and defend myself against an onslaught of bloodthirsty birds. I needed to be on guard and watching for their approach.

However, I was watching the sky a little too much. Because of that, I didn't see what was happening around me. If I had been watching my surroundings, and not just the aerial ones, I would have noticed that all of the people in the vicinity were no longer running on their loops. I would have noticed that they were all seemingly frozen for just a moment or two.

By the time that I did look down and pay attention to what was happening around me, all of the souls that were near me had just started to unfreeze and turn to look at me. It felt odd in a way. To have so many sets of dead eyes watching and acknowledging me.

OK, this was creepy. Why were all of these people suddenly paying so much attention to me? I mean, when I had tried to speak to Franny earlier, she wouldn't even acknowledge me, now she can't take her eyes off of me.

Those three kids that were walking all in a row had stopped and were now standing there, side by side. They were just watching me like I was some exhibit in a zoo on display for them to ogle at.

"You will see what I can do even from my prison cell, Trinity. You will reap the fruits of your insolence."

I did not like the sounds of what she was saying, and I definitely did not like the way that all of those lost souls were looking at me.

These people were supposed to be good people, definitely not evil. Yet, every single one of them was now wearing a look that was nothing but hostile and downright malicious. I was hesitant to actually call the looks evil, but to be honest, that is kind of what they were.

And as I watched on even more, I saw that all of them were positioning themselves in a certain way. In a way that made me fear for those three little imp boys beside me. All of these people were now poised to attack. And their target was going to be me.

"Destroy the souls of the children but bring me her soul in the halls of the damned. If any of you fail to do as I say, you will spend eternity being tortured whether I escape from this cell or not.." As one, everyone surrounding me started to move.
