Trinity

I heard the door slowly close behind me. The low clicking sound was almost deafening in the silence of the room. The moment that it did click though, the time in the room caught up to me and everything in the room started to come alive, or go back to normal, or whatever you want to call it. What I found odd about it though, was that there was a weird 'whirrmp' type of noise when the time started, it almost sounded like a record player stopping.

"Holy s.h.i.+t!" Vincent leapt away from me the moment that time had restarted.

"My word!" Gabriel gasped and put his hand to his mouth.

I could understand their reactions, especially Vincent's. When time froze, he was holding my head to stop me from getting hurt, yet when time restarted, I was sitting up and looking at him. That means, in his mind, that happened instantaneously. It has no doubt frightened him.

There was also the fact that there were two people standing next to me that hadn't been there before.

"T..T..Trinity, w..who are these people?" Vincent was reaching toward his hip where I knew he kept a gun and a magical sword that I had made for him.

"Don't worry, Vincent. These are not enemies." I did my best to soothe him. "Both of you, please sit back down." I motioned with my eyes since both of my hands were occupied.

"Trinity? My Queen? What has happened? Did you, perchance, visit the celestial realm?" Gabriel, still in shock, sat on the edge of his seat. Vincent, who clearly didn't want to be seated, for my safety of course, stayed hovering over the cus.h.i.+on of his seat.

"Yes, Gabriel, I did. These here are Veritas, the G.o.ddess of truth, and Sancus, the G.o.d of oaths."

"h.e.l.lo, Vincent." Sancus nodded at him with a shy smile.

"It is a pleasure to meet you, Gabriel." Veritas did the same to the other man.

"Queen Trinity, why did you bring two celestials back with you?" Gabriel was obviously very confused at the moment. I know that he was wondering what was going on and I wanted to answer that for him, I really did.

"Well, it just so happens that these two have something to ask the two of you." I grinned at him, happy for once that this was something that didn't have to do solely with me.

"U..us?" Vincent looked between Veritas and Sancus with confusion. "What on earth would they want to ask us? We're not important. They should be speaking to you, Trinity. Not us." He was shaking his head no, as if that was going to be his answer to whatever it is that they were going to say.

"Just hear them out, Vincent. I think you will be pleasantly surprised when you find out what they have to say.

"O..OK." Vincent agreed and finally sat all the way into his chair, no longer hovering over it and ready to attack at any second.

"Sancus, would you like to begin?" I asked the man standing next to me. He seemed like the more outgoing of the two.

"Yes, I think that will be good." He smiled at me then looked at Vincent. "I am, as Trinity has pointed out already, the G.o.d of oaths. My blessing, or power so to speak, has always been to see true bonds and oaths when they are given. You, Vincent, are the most loyal man that has given an oath to Trinity. You are a kind and worthy man and I would like to give you my blessing."

"And you, Gabriel, are the most honest being that I have ever seen. I, being the G.o.ddess of truth, can always detect the truth. I know when someone is lying, and I can help to uncover deceit. Gabriel, I would like to give you my blessing." Veritas was smiling sweetly at the man that she had chosen to take over her power.

"I..I don't know what you mean." Vincent stuttered just a little. "What do you mean that you want to give me your blessing?" He looked between the two celestials and then at me. His eyes were filled with wonder mixed with worry. He wasn't fully trusting this just yet.

I had a feeling that I was going to need to explain things to them. If that was all that Sancus and Veritas were going to say, then the two men in front of me would need more of an explanation.

"Vincent, do you remember what happened when I ascended? When I became a G.o.ddess?" I brought up the memories from a few years ago, memories of the day that he almost died in my arms.

"I remember what you told me about it. But of the actual process, no one was there to see it." Well, he was right about that one. But he knew what I was talking about and that was all that mattered to me right now. I just needed him to understand what I was getting at when I continued my explanation.

"Well, that day I took the blessings of Nehalennia, Thoth, and Danu into my body. I took their power and became a G.o.ddess."

"Yes, I understand that." Vincent nodded his head as if saying he was following me so far. Gabriel was looking at me intently, having also heard this story.

"Well, the blessing of the two G.o.ddesses and G.o.d that I took into my body is what ascended me. It is what made me what I am now."

"OK." He was understanding me but not putting the two things together.

"Sancus wants to give you his blessing, Vincent." I emphasized the words for him and waited for him to fully understand them.

The moment that his eyes went wide I knew that he had figured it out. Some of the color drained from his face and he gripped the arms of the chair that he was sitting in.

"T..T…T..Trinity, a..are you telling me t..th..that he w..w..wants to m..m..make me i..into a G..G…G..G..G.o.d?" ding ding ding. He got it in one go. And let's see what kind of prize we have for him. Oh, I know, he can ascend if he wants to. I wanted to laugh at my whole game show reference.

"Yes, Vincent. You would become the new G.o.d of oaths. And I am guessing that you will have an increase to that ability that you have. And as for you, Gabriel, Veritas wants to help you ascend so that you are the new G.o.d of Truth." I smiled at them, hoping to calm them down just a little bit as I explained what was going on. "What do you two think? Will you become G.o.ds? Will you ascend?"

I could see the emotions flitting across Vincent's face as he thought about the words that I had said.. I had told them all before that this was possible. Now I just needed to know, would he go through with it? Would he become a G.o.d? Would he join me?
