Trinity

I swear I saw a smirk on Odin’s face before he turned away from me. I knew that he had heard what had gone through my mind. It was like he had known exactly what I wanted to tell him, but wasn’t able to tell him it out loud.
I wondered if that was something that worked for all Gods and Goddesses, or was it specific to him. I mean, they did say that Gods could hear your prayers, perhaps that was what had happened here.
"How dare you speak to me like that?!" Orson screamed the words in response to Odin’s outburst.
"I will call what you said bullshit because that is what it is. You spout this nonsense, talking about how Trinity and her people are the monsters and brutes. Tell me, what did she do wrong? In all her time, she has never once intentionally hurt another person, bombed anyone, or tried to hurt and oppress the innocent."
"That’s right!" Lara, who dared to brave the chance of interrupting a God to give her opinion on the matter. "All she’s ever done is try to help people. They even help investigate crimes to protect people."
"Thank you, human." Odin looked at Lara directly, the full intensity of his stare bearing down on her. It hadn’t seemed to affect Orson, but it made Lara look as if she was being overwhelmed. Was it because Lara had faith in Odin and other Gods while Orson didn’t believe in anyone or anything that wasn’t himself and his ideals?
"I..I am sorry for interrupting you, King Odin." She bowed her head and looked apologetic almost instantly.
"No need to worry, human. I am not upset. You were standing up for Trinity, the same as I was doing."
Odin took a step back and faced the humans that I had protected, the ones that Orson had nearly killed. He swept his gaze over them and ignored Orson for the moment.
"All of you owe your lives to Trinity. Even those of you that came here to protest as to why she should not be allowed to live amongst you. You owe your lives to her and her people, because they are here to protect you and keep you safe.
If you needed any more proof than what existed prior to the events of this afternoon, you have only to look at the fact that that man there, a human, was willing to kill you all, but Trinity wants nothing more than to make sure that all of you, even Orson and his men, make it out of here alive."
"Sh..sh..she did save us." One of the anti supers said in a timid voice. "She flew us away from the trucks and over here to safety."
"She stopped the bullets when they were shooting at us too. Th..that man, the leader of the DOE, he tried to kill us multiple times, but she saved us. Sh..she really is a good person." It’s funny how it took a twelve foot tall God to make them see what I had been trying to tell them this whole time. I just shook my head and thought about it a bit more.
"Thanks, Reece." I nodded at him.
"That man is a crazy son of a bitch, don’t let what he says get to you."
"I know." I spoke between my teeth and snarled under my breath. "I’m just pissed at him, that’s all."
"We all are, Trinity." Vincent said without moving closer. "He’s a nasty piece of work, but you don’t need to let his words get to you. You know the truth just as much as we do."
"We’re here for you, Trinity." Shawn encouraged me to stay in control as well.
"You are here for us, Trinity, and we are here for you. Never forget that." Dietrich added his words.
"Twenty years and counting, Trinity. We will never abandon you. And you are none of the things that he is calling you." David said with an uplifting tone.
"Well, I know that Reece has called you a bit-."
"Hey!" Reece snapped at him under his breath.
"It’s natural. We all do it. And that doesn’t make her a bad person."
"Reece?" I looked at him out of the corner of my eye, letting the little playful moment break the rest of the tension.
"I didn’t! I swear, Little Bunny."
"Suuurrreee." Shane dragged the word out as he laughed at Reece’s panic.
"Don’t worry, Reece, I’ve called you an asshole. We’re even."
"What?" He looked like he had not known that after all these years.
"Thank you, all of you. You helped to break the tension that was building inside of me." I instantly felt a sense of calm wash over me. I knew that it wasn’t anything magical, it was just the way that these people made me feel. Safe. Secure. Protected.
And powerful. They had the ability to make me feel all of this and more.
