Trinity
~~
“I promise you, Claud, this will all be over very soon.” I was trying not to sound like so evil dentist or sothing that was about to rip out his teeth with no Novocain or sothing. I wasn’t that scary, was I?
“You’re lying.” His voice was barely audible as he squeaked the words out. “Y..y..you wouldn’t know how to get rid of them. You don’t use these runes.”
“Actually, Claud.” I paused for dramatic effect, looking at him with a smile in my eyes, but a serious and calm expression on my face. “I have so of these runes on right now. I used them to protect us. I have a friend that has studied a great deal about runes. He even knows their origins.” I laughed slightly, showing that I was not at all worried about this. “And it will be more than easy for to remove them. One change in the rune will make them obsolete.”
“Y..y..you can’t do that. That would be harming . Aren’t you trying to convince that you’re good? Haven’t you been saying that you are not a monster?” His entire body was trembling with fear as he looked up at . I still hadn’t sat down yet. Nor had I truly gotten started with this interrogation. We were nowhere near done yet. “I won’t let you do that to . You can’t alter my runes. That wouldn’t be right. You can’t do that to !” I know that I shouldn’t, but I sohow liked the panic that I was seeing in this pathetic man. Still, I wasn’t able to hurt him. Nothing more than his emotions really. I wasn’t going to be the monster that he thought that I was. I wasn’t going to stoop to his level.
.....
“What? You an that I can’t stop you from killing yourself? Don’t you know though, police stop people from committing suicide all the ti. This is just performing a necessary service. I am stopping you from harming yourself. And I am also going to see to it that you are charged to the fullest extent for your cris. You will not get away with this, Claud. You will be punished. Those families will have justice. And you will not get the chance to end your punishnt early.” I ant every word of what I was saying. I wasn’t going to kill any of these people. Not unless they were actively trying to kill . I would only use deadly force to stop them from hurting , or soone else that they didn’t need to be trying to harm. Other than that, they will live to serve their ti behind bars. I would personally see to it that they did.
I walked back around Claud. I didn’t need to move as slowly as I did, but I knew that it made him wary of when I did this, so I figured why not drag it out so more. I wasn’t actually hurting him. It was just a little bit of psychological torture. Not even torture really. It was just getting him ready to start talking when the rune was gone.
“Don’t you dare touch . Get away from . Don’t touch .” He was squirming in his seat as he tried to stop from getting too close to him. This was a bad idea for him at the mont though. Since he was still bound by the root like vines that I had used earlier, he was sort of like a Claud burrito, and that made him unable to move his arms or legs to balance himself. He was barely propped up on the chair as it was.
“Stay still.” This was a command as much as a warning. If he kept that up, he was going to hurt himself.
“Get away from . Don’t touch . I don’t want you to touch . Leave alone.” He was squirming even more as I approached the back of his chair. “GET AWAY!” He scread one last ti as he tried to move away from .
At that mont, Claud toppled to the side and was falling face first toward the floor. He was about to smack into it, and most likely break his nose or sothing, so I had to help him. Not that I wanted to. The asshole could use a good dose of reality, and pain would do that to him.
However, I was trying to play the good guy here. And doing that ant that I had to stop him from getting hurt. Hahh. There was just so much that I had to do at the mont. I needed to stop him from dying, from getting hurt by his own hands or mine, and I had to make sure that he was willing to sing like a canary and tell everything that he knew. Him and all of his little buddies.
Before Claud was even halfway to the floor, screaming the entire ti that he was falling, I stopped him. He was suspended in midair, unable to move but still relatively unhard.
“AAAAAHHHHHHHHHHH!” He was still screaming after he stopped. It took him a mont to realize that he was no longer in danger of being hurt.
“Co on now, Claud. Let remove that pesky little rune so that I can untie you. I think that you will like it better when you can sit in the chair properly.”
“DON’T TOUCH MY RUNES!” He scread at .
“Well, now I need to use my magic to check for other runes. I need to know what all ones you have. And I need to get rid of them all. Doing that would make it so much easier to talk to you.”
“NO! NOO! NOOO!” He was screaming so unnecessarily loud. I was able to hear him just fine. I had better hearing than him after all. And frankly, I just found him annoying at this point.
“Enough!” I snapped at him. “Stop screaming or I will bind your voice for the ti being. I don’t want to do that, since I need to talk to you about your cris and your family. But if you don’t stop, I will have no choice but to do it.” He abruptly stopped screaming. I think that he was seeing enough of my magic to know that I wasn’t bluffing. I could do that, and I would. “Thank you.” I nodded at him. “Now, let’s see where those runes are.”
I pulled the magic toward as I approached him. I didn’t need too much at the mont, so it didn’t take long before I was able to use the spell. It was just a mont really. That was all that I had needed.
“Ahh, I see. There on the neck is the death rune that I knew about, but on your forearms are the others. You have the rune to hide yourself. I am assuming that the cloak you have is imbued with that as well. That is how you and your friends, or should I say family, were able to hide from us all when you watched the cri scene. And how you were able to run away or disappear in plain sight when soone was coming toward your kill site.”
“Shut up!” He was crying now. The tears were actually streaming down his cheeks as he begged to stop.
“No, I can’t do that, Claud. You should know better than that by now. I have to interrogate you. And I have to make sure that you are not a threat to or my people.” I looked at the guards that would be with him until lights out, and possibly even then. He would almost never be alone. I couldn’t trust it. “Now, where was I? Ahh, yes, the runes. You have one for silence. I am guessing that is how you were able to sneak up on the shifters that you killed. They are great at hearing footsteps, but you were all able to sneak up on them. There is one for strength as well, that would make you stronger than the average person, possibly putting you on par with so of the werewolves that I know. And this one I don’t really know. I will have to have soone research it for .” This rune was one that looked different than the ones that I had seen before. “Oh, is that one there a luck rune? Well, I guess that one didn’t really help you at all, did it?” I laughed a little. “Now, ti to get rid of them all. And might I say, Claud, I am glad that none of them are in a place that would be unntionable. That would just be inappropriate, don’t you think?” I laughed as I pulled up his sleeves.
“Please, don’t touch .” He was still begging not to do this to him, but I was not at all affected by his pleas.
“And how many tis did Andrea ask you to stop? Oh wait, you didn’t hear her pleas, did you? They were all in her head because you had immobilized her. I can assure you though, she was screaming for you to stop, but you didn’t listen.”
I used my magic to make one of those pens that Gabriel had used earlier. I needed that to alter the runes on Claud’s arms and neck. I turned them all into open and truth runes. That would, hopefully, make him more willing to talk to . It might have been unfair, but it was an advantage that I was willing to take. Then, I sent magic pens to all the others and told them what to do.
‘Change the runes, they have them on their arms and the back of their necks. Claud here had one for hiding, silence, luck, strength, and another that I don’t know the aning of. Change them all to open and truth runes. After that, I will unbind them. It will be a little difficult, but you can manage to pull their sleeves up past the bindings.’
‘Understood.’ Shawn was the first to respond.
‘Cool, I can give him a tattoo.’ Shane’s laughing voice ca next.
‘Removing the runes is a good idea.’ Athair mòr’s calm tone approved of my words.
‘Thanks for the tip.’ Trevor’s gruff voice was happy with the developnt.
‘Thanks Trinity, this will help imnsely.’ David’s gentle and sweet voice cheered up a little.
‘Of course, my Little Bunny would have an ace up her sleeve.’ Reece was laughing, I could tell that he was happy though. Perhaps Fritz was being a little more stubborn than I thought that he was. All of the others applied in similar ways. Happy to have an advantage that they could use to sway the battle of wits that we were all embroiled in.
