Reece

I could tell that my Little Bunny was not doing so well right now. She was getting upset and I didn't really know why. She had Edmond's help now. She should be able to handle all of this. She should be able to end that bitch and come home.

There was just one thing that I could think of. Only one thing that I thought might be responsible for why my Little Bunny was acting this way. The natural magic of the Hall of Damnation was affecting her. She just wasn't thinking clearly because of that.

As I looked around at the others that were in this room with me, the others that were watching the fight with Trinity, Edmond and Hekate, I could tell that they were scared. None of them would admit it, not at all, but all of them were scared. All of them were worried that Trinity would let the advantage that she had gained, that lead she was currently holding, slip away. That was their fear. I didn't need to hear them say that to know that that had been what they were thinking. It was more than obvious as the words were basically written on their faces.

Come on, Little Bunny. Come on, Trinity. You know that you can do this. You know that you have what it takes. We all believe in you. We all know that you're strong enough to end this. And you're more than smart enough for it too. Come on, Little Bunny, you can do this.

"COME ON, LITTLE BUNNY!" I yelled at the screen. "Slow down and think it through. You've got this."

"Yeah, that's right Trinity, you've got this, sis. Let's go." Noah encouraged her as well.

"You're the best Bunny ever, Trinity, come on and do this. Prove to Reece that you have got what it takes." Trevor was next.

"I believe in you, Gariníon. I know that you can do this. We all know it." Valerian was the last to encourage her.

She had a lot of support, whether she knew it or not. There were a lot of people that knew she was strong and wise. And not all of them were in this room. She just needed to learn to trust herself and to calm down.

Well, she had been in the underworld for a long time now. I wouldn't be surprised if it was taking its toll on her. That was just to be expected in my opinion. She had been through a lot and it still wasn't over. My poor Little Bunny. She needed me, she needed her family. She needed all of us.

I'm here, Little Bunny. I'm here for you. We all are. Just finish this battle and come back to us. Just end it all soon. Just kill the dragon and come home to us. Come on, my love. We're here to support you. Come on, Trinity.

I couldn't stop myself from sending her silent encouragement. The others were being more vocal about it most of the time, but I was being quiet about it. I also had a feeling that the others most likely thought that I was being way too relaxed with it all. They probably thought that I didn't care about my Little Bunny anymore. They just didn't know what was going on in my head.

No matter how proud of her I was. No matter how much I knew that she was going to be fine. None of that mattered to other people. It only mattered to me, and later to my Little Bunny when she knew that I never gave up hope and that I was by her side this whole time.

Also, whether I was at her side or not, I was still getting nervous myself. Mostly because of the way that my Little Bunny kept running at the dragon again and again to no avail. She seemed like a relentless energizer bunny that was going at it again and again.

If I knew how to get over there, I would wrap my arms around her right now and calm her down. If I knew how to get to her at this very moment, I would do everything that was in my power to not only end the fight and bring her home, but to end the worry and heartache that I could clearly tell that she was feeling.

At that moment, my phone dinged. I had gotten a message on my cell phone, the first one since this hyper speed trap of ours had gone into effect. I knew that I needed to check it fast and respond as soon as I could. The way that time passed in here, it would take a long time for it to be sent back out to the others.

[MOM]

Hey Reece, I am just checking in on you and the others. Are you doing OK? None of us can get back into the room. The children have all been told what is going on and they know that you will be out when everything is over. I just want you to know that Sam and I are taking care of Talia, Reagan and Rika. Glory is ok with her baby, though she's having a little bit of trouble with being pregnant. The same thing with Daci. The both of them know that their husbands are doing what matters and we will all be here waiting for the four of you, and hopefully Trinity. Oh, I can't say what it is, but Nikki has a surprise for Noah when he comes out of there. She's really excited right now.

I think I knew what that secret was. But I didn't want to get presumptuous. We would find out later, when this was all over.

[ME]

Hey mom, we're all good. Trinity is fighting the evil goddess now. I hope that it will be over soon. We will keep you informed and should be out soon, I hope. Give my love to the kids and tell them that I miss them. I am sorry that, for the time being, they are stuck without having their mom or their dad with them. They don't deserve that, but I want them to know that I am only doing what I feel is right.

The reply message came almost instantly for me, but that was still several minutes outside of this room.

[MOM]

They know that you love them. Reagan and Rika were so proud of you and Talia for what you did. They were so happy that Talia was able to open that screen. Though they were a little sad that they can't see the screen and that they can't come in and see their mom. Still, they are doing well, and they are so proud of you. We all are. Love you, son.

[ME]

Love you too mom. More than you will ever know. And when this is all done, we will tell you and the others all that we saw. And all about the amazing things that Trinity has been doing. She's amazing, Mom. Though you already knew that.

I was fighting not to cry as I continued to text my mom for a little while longer. She was giving me the moral support that I didn't even know that I needed right now.. After the messages, I was feeling a little better and that was a good thing.
