Trinity Our Saviour

Chapter 11

Sorry About The Delay Folks, Had A Few Problems As Of Late. I Know This Is Going To Be A Boring Chapter. Sorry.

Trudy, Jack, Slade and Ram left the group and quickly made there way to where Ruby was resting. Leaving the rest of the group to finish their discussion about where they were going to go from here.

Ebony was still with Ved, they though it best to stay out of the way for a while.

Ebony:- I think I'm going to go for a walk and clear my head for a bit.

Ved:- Do you think that wise? Look what happened last time?

Ved smirked.

Ved:- I got lumbered with you.

Ebony:- Ha…Ha… don't worry I'm not stupid enough to go back into the woods again, knowing my luck I'd get kidnapped and held hostage with some other enemies from the past.

Ved:- Ok well just be careful. Seriously.

Ebony nodded at Ved and set off walking. Everyone was up most of night, packing and getting ready for what would happen in the following days. The Mallrats decided to stay until Ruby could be moved, they were brought news from Sasha every few hours, the operation was taking a very long time and Amber was worried about poor Trudy, Ellie was getting angry that Ram was keeping Jack from her all this time for someone they didn't know that well. Jay was sat with Ved talking about what Jay had been up to while Ved was in captivity and how Ved managed to stay himself through his ordeal.

Ved:- It was hard, some days I didn't eat hoping that death would come, but when I became weak I thought about Cloe and how much I couldn't bear never seeing her face again, so I kept eating and I kept myself alive for her, I will find her Jay, that reminds me, did I hear right when Sammy said Ram earlier?

Jay:- Yes, he is here with us.

Ved:- I can't believe you think you can trust him after what he has put us both through brother.

Jay:- I don't but I knew that having him on our side would mean I had more of a chance seeing you again… and he is the one who sent Cloe away so maybe he can help you find her.

Ved:- Yeah whatever… I was trying for months to get him to give her back and he never did.

Jay:- He is changing Ved. In more ways than one, I mean look at what he did for Ruby? He would never have done that before, not even for Java.

Ved:- We will see, anyway I'm going to go look for Ebony, she seems to have been gone a long time.

Jay:- You're worried about Ebony?

Ved:- Well no of course not but we don't want her getting into anymore trouble right?

Jay:- Ok… Well be safe Ved, I don't want you to get into anymore trouble either ok?

Ved:- Yeah yeah, trust me brother I wont go far.

Ved leaves Jay to his thoughts. He missed Amber, she had changed since she knew Bray was alive. He could tell she wanted to find him so badly and that getting off this island is what she would do. She would find him because that was her nature, strong willed and determined, that's why he loved her as much as he did, and he didn't want this relationship to end like it did with Ebony and Trudy.

Ved was only walking for a short while when he came across Ebony.

Ved:- Wow you're an easy person to find.

Ebony:- I told you I wouldn't go far.

Ved:- Well you said I had to help you get your revenge so when are we going to plan this?

Ebony:- There's no point. Slade loves Ruby, I'm just doomed to repeat myself over and over I guess. I know it hasn't been said but our relationship is over, I mean he is in there saving her life as we speak, he hasn't spoke to me and didn't even ask if I was ok after being locked up.

Ved:- Well I'm sure there is someone out there for you, just stay on your own for a while.

Ebony felt regret and guilt for what she did to Ruby, she never wished Ruby dead, just the baby. She lost out to her anyway in the end. If anyone knew she was involved they would chuck her out of the Mallrats for good. The Mallrats were all she had left now. I will change. I don't want to be alone and I don't want to be like I once was. Ebony was changing, she could feel it.

Ebony:- Yeah you're right, I need to move on.

Ved:- Clearly you already are if you don't want to get revenge, that's a first.

The sun was beginning to rise. Everyone was making there way to the breakfast camp. Nobody had slept other than Gel, so everyone looked a little rough, even Lex found it hard to get any rest as he knew Ruby just as much as Ram or Slade. They were waiting for Trudy, Jack, Slade and Ram to come over with some news, they had been working most of the night, and Amber was worried that Trudy wouldn't be able to handle it. Then out of no where Jack ran around the corner.

Ellie:- Finally Jack, I was really worried.

Jack:- He has actually done it guys, he has probably saved her life. With the help of me of course.

Ellie:- Oh that's wonderful Jack.

Amber:- When can she be moved?

Ram:- Not for a few days at least, she needs rest and no movement while her wound heals.

Jay:- Well I can't believe I'm saying this but well done Ram. Really!

Ram:- Well I was never going to fail was I.

Trudy:- No but you have actually shown compassion towards someone other than yourself.

They were all back now. Trudy looked drained, so did Jack. Slade had the biggest smile on his face imaginable. Ebony's heart strings pulled but she knew she had to let it go. She was relieved that Ruby would live, she wouldn't be able to look Slade in the eye if she hadn't.

Ram:- Relieved Ebony?

Ebony:- Excuse me?

Ram:- That you didn't murder and innocent girl and her baby?

Ebony:- You know that isn't true and besides you have no proof I did anything. She slipped.

Ram:- If you say so, be careful Ebony and watch your back.

Slade:- Come on Ram leave her be.

Ram:- Slade, your just feeling guilty that you love Ruby and not Ebony. Have you told her yet?

Slade:- That enough Ram. I think you have made your point.

Ebony looked angry, shadows covered her eyes.

Ebony:- How dare you talk about my personal life in front of everyone and also accuse me of trying to murder Ruby, after what you have done to everyone here, you had your hand in killing Java and Siva just as much as I did, you killed thousands on your way to the top, you took away people we loved and you think that even if I did push Ruby it would somehow make you look like a hero? It doesn't matter how much you try Ram you will still be the same old you, if I can't change then you certainly can't either. I'm not interested in anything you have to say or think about me. And as for you and Slade loving Ruby? Good luck with that one.

Ebony storms off from the group, she hated him so much. Ram just looked on in shock and then quickly turned his back to Slade who was now eyeing him intently.

Lex:- Ebony has gone doolally.

Daryl:- Well can we get onto breakfast?

Lex:- Mmmm yes Amber, where is breakfast?

Amber:- Wait a god damn minute. We need to discuss stuff. I know Ebony has gone but we need to decide where we going to go from here.

Patsy:- How about the next island along? I can't remember what it's called but there is a small village there and I'm sure they would be happy enough to let us stay there for a while.

Lex:- Who said you were involved eh? Why would you want us to go there?

Salene:- Leave her alone Lex. She is a Mallrat, she always will be.

Amber:- That is right, Ram, Slade, Lottie, Jay, and Daryl you need to decide whether you want to continue with us as a Mallrat, or go your own way.

Ram:- What do you think Slade?

Slade:- I don't really do tribes. How about we stay together for now and see how it goes?

Amber:- We don't really do that.

Lottie:- I only want to be a Mallrat if Ruby can be a Mallrat,

Trudy:- Of course she can Lottie, when she gets better we will ask her properly ok?

Amber:- Ram, Jay, Slade, Daryl you need to make a choice, you can come with us to the next Island but then we will need a decision from you whether you want to go your own way or stay with us and be apart of our tribe. We will all vote of course as we have always done.

Lex:- I know who won't be getting my vote.

Ram:- I don't want your vote even if you were going to vote for me to stay. I don't need any of your votes.

May: Ah well at least we are clear that we don't have to deal with you much longer then.

Trudy:- I would vote for you to stay Ram, you've changed and I think the others will realise it sooner or later.

Lex:- The only reason he would stay is because he knows if he goes it alone he will be dead meat, right Ram? Most wanted aren't you?

Ram quickly turns and walks off with fear in his eyes, he knew Lex was right.

Amber:- Ok, Ok well we all need rest so we will let you all think about it and when you have made a decision come see me. Thanks everyone.

Slade walked in the direction of Ram, he obviously needed to talk with him about Ruby, "Was he really in love with her? It would explain a lot."

Everyone left the clearing and all went to rest now they knew Ruby was going to be ok, Trudy went over to her tent and cried while holding Brady, and it was the worst thing she had ever had to do.
