Trinity

~~

OK, I know what everyone is going to say to me. It's completely stupid and ludicrous of me to willingly follow those imps toward that door. And it was even more stupid of me to have the intention of opening it and looking through it.

Hey, what can I say? I am not one to shy away from danger. I have, multiple times, walked right into the heart of the danger without even thinking. That may, or may not, have gotten me in trouble with Reece on more than one occasion. But, well, he isn't here right now so I don't need to worry about that now. He will never know that I even opened it, let alone looked inside of that door.

'No, over here. Don't follow them, follow me. Come on, Trinity. Don't get sidetracked. Focus on me.'

I was ignoring that voice, just like I had ignored the other voice for so long. I was able to just shut off the ability to hear it a little. It was there still, like a constant buzzing in the back of my head. It actually reminded me of listening to a radio with a semi blown speaker. One of the speakers was buzzing constantly and you couldn't get it to stop unless you replaced the speakers.

'Don't ignore me!' The voice yelled, screaming at me with fury and anger filling her voice. This time, that voice actually sounded a lot like the original voice that I heard, that one that had been driving me nuts for so long.

"I am going to check this out first." I answered as if in a daze of some sort. It was like there was something drawing me in, pulling me toward that door and the three little imps that were moving around it.

I still couldn't see the imp's faces all that clearly, but I could see that they were smiling at me and waving me closer. Yeah, that was totally a bad sign. I mean there were tiny little devil-like creatures beckoning me toward them. What could possibly go wrong?

Then again, that voice that I had let lead me down here started to sound just like that annoying and s.a.d.i.s.tic voice that kept tormenting me before. Could it be that it really was the same voice? Maybe the owner of the voice just got strong enough to finally reach out to me.

Honestly, if anyone were to ask me, neither of these situations was exactly safe. And I can only blame temporary insanity on all of this as I walked closer and closer toward the door and, in turn, closer to the little imps that were telling me to come with them.

They didn't actually say those words, but that is what they made me feel when I saw them. It was like I could feel the words that they couldn't speak.

"Come with us, Trinity. This is the way to go. That way is a trap. That way will lead you to certain death. Don't follow the voice, follow us."

Yeah, I know that is not what was being said at all. It was probably more like this:

"Come with us, Trinity. We want to eat your soul. We're hungry and a G.o.ddess's soul sounds really delicious right about now. Come on, we will lead you to the place that you want to be. We will take you to see the G.o.ddess of Darkness, we devoured her soul too, you know."

That was a little more realistic if you asked me. Still, I wasn't worried as I followed those three little guys toward the door. I wasn't scared at all when I turned the handle and started to look beyond the door to what was waiting for me on the other side.

And I was very disappointed when I found out that there was nothing on the other side of the door aside from the hallway of the castle that I was currently standing in. Well, that's a rip off. I mean, come on. You find a magical doorway standing inside of your house, you would think that it would take you somewhere else. Somewhere that wasn't here.

The three little imps immediately went through the door though. They crossed the threshold happily and began to dance on the other side. They were cute, that little trio dancing together. They made me think of kids that had found a song that they liked. It was a lot like Talia, really, when she danced to her favorite songs and threw all those dance lessons out of the window. It was totally carefree and childlike.

I don't know why I did it, but I stepped through the door. I wanted to get closer to those little imps, I wanted to see their faces. I wanted to see if they really were imps or if they were indeed children. I mean, if they were children, then what they were doing made a lot of sense. Imps also often have small, child-sized faces, sometimes even having the true features of a child so that they could fool their prey.

For some reason though, I just couldn't sense any danger coming from these three child sized creatures. To me, all I could sense was fun, love, and a desire to help. That was not the definition of an imp if you asked me.

The moment that I was on the other side of that door, I felt like all the color drained from my surroundings. For some reason, my vision just seemed to cloud over and everything around me seemed to be in black and white.

"This is odd." I was speaking to myself as I started to turn around and look at the hallway.

The moment I turned in a half circle, when I was looking at the door again, I saw the color beyond it, as well as something laying on the other side.

"What is that?" I asked myself just a moment before I realized what it was. "That's me!" I was literally looking at my body lying on the floor. "What the h.e.l.l?"

The moment I took a step toward the door though, it slammed shut and disappeared altogether.

"Where did the door go? What is going on? This is crazy!" My heart rate was rising. Fear was spreading throughout me. So many feelings and emotions were coursing throughout my body.

Oh, and to top it all off, those three little imps were gone.

"Dammit! I didn't think that I would get stuck over here. I need to make sure that I can get out of here. I needed to find some way to escape from this place before Reece gets home. If he finds out that I went through some stupid magical door and got stuck like this, then he would be p.i.s.sed at me, again.

Yeah, I know, I am the queen, not him. But that didn't mean that I wanted to listen to him grumble about this for the next few months. That would just annoy the h.e.l.l out of me.

Nope, my best option was to look for another door that would take me home.. Then I could get back to my room and pretend that I had been asleep this whole time.
