Chapter 499 - Trinity – The Other Side Part 2 (VOLU 3)
~~
Trinity
~~
I just watched the heartbreaking scene before with tears forming in my eyes while the two n nearly wept for each other. I knew that I needed to do sothing, I couldn't just sit and watch as Sterling died if I was able to stop it. Slowly, with one cautious step after another, I walked toward the two n, where they were huddling together under the tree.
Neither of them seed to notice until long after I was right next to them. I placed a hand on Alloy's shoulder and spoke to him in a soft, soothing voice.
"I promise I will help him. You have my word." I could see that he still didn't trust .
"Please, help .." Sterling begged despite the hesitation from his partner.
"NO! We don't even know who you are." Alloy was still looking at angrily.
"Would it help you trust more if you know who I was first?" I looked at him with curious eyes. However, while he looked at with those wary eyes of his I had reached out and taken Sterling's hand. The hand that I held gripped firmly and I could feel the pulse of his heart, weak and erratic. He truly was dying.
With my eyes still on Alloy, watching him to make sure that he wasn't doing anything that he shouldn't, I poured all of my magic into Sterling. I thought of what it was that I wanted that magic of mine to do. I wanted to use my abilities to heal the wounds that were threatening this man's life.
As I looked at him in my peripheral vision, I had to wonder how it was that he had managed to get these wounds? He had a massive slash across his chest. It was long and deep, but there was sothing off about it as well. I don't want to say that it looked like it was infected, but that was what it seed like. Only, instead of a red inflammation that was spreading to the edges of the wound and into the veins, it was black.
The sick and infectious looking black flesh started just before the edges of the wound and was moving out into the veins that spread through his body. That wasn't the only wound that he had either. I could see one on his left arm, there were two on his right arm, and several more on his legs. There were so many injuries that I couldn't maintain eye contact with Alloy and count them in my peripheral vision at the sa ti.
I did everything that I could, pouring as much magic into him that I could. I started to beg and plead with Danu, Thoth, and Nehalennia for help. Finally, after what felt like a long ti, my magic started to intensify. A bright shining light spread from and into Sterling. Though it didn't stop there, the light moved to cover Alloy as well.
"What is this? What's going on?" Alloy started to panic when my magic overtook him.
"I feel so warm. It's so pleasant." He was smiling, though I could barely make it out in the brightness of the light around us.
"What are you doing to us?" Alloy scread.
"Calm down, Alloy. Please, don't cause a scene. Just embrace it."
I saw that wounds on Sterling were closing. The smaller ones were closing quickly, but that large one across his chest was taking a long ti. I had a feeling he needed a little bit more magic to help him. Magic that I didn't have.
"Alloy, take his hand. He needs your magic to help him as well. He needs magic similar to his own as well as the love you share."
"What?" Alloy looked at like I was a weird creature.
"Don't worry about how I know, help him." I gave him a stern look.
"Alloy?" Sterling held his hand out to the other man as he called his na. Finally, Alloy took his hand and I saw a silver light start to form at the point where they held hands.
"I am not going anywhere." Alloy looked at his lover with tender eyes and a soft smile.
Soon, that silver light started to spread around the three of us, Alloy's magic blending with my own and finishing the healing process. I thought of one last thing before the healing was over, sothing that would help to decide if they were telling the truth or not. Though I was pretty sure that they were.
"Please, Nehalennia, Thoth, and Danu, if these n are innocent, mark them. Show the world that they did not commit the cris that they are being blad for. Help to protect them if they are not the culprits."
As soon as I said those words the light seed to explode. I watched as the shining gold and silver light beca shimring dust that was falling to the ground around us. I thought that it looked pretty, but Alloy was looking around us with shock and fear. But Sterling, however, was smiling happily as he sat up. He was fully healed and no longer on the brink of death.
"Sterling." Alloy called his na when he saw him.
"Alloy." I watched as the two n embraced each other, happy that the threat of death was gone for the mont.
"I am glad that you're safe." I lowered my head slightly in relief as I spoke.
"Who are you?" Alloy asked , a little less wary of than he was before.
"Yes, I wish to know the na of my savior." Sterling gazed at with reverence.
"My na is Trinity."
That got a bigger response from the two of them than I had expected. They must have known who I was. If they didn't, then why would the both of them look at with shock filled eyes. I had a feeling that the rest of this conversation was going to be interesting.
