Shooting Stars

Chapter 3: Dreams

It was pitch black, that's all there was, but Trinity could see herself, but that was all. Trinity heard what was a drop of water, then ripples. A dark purple, spreading out, rings of six or seven head toward her as if the black ground was actually water. A sound of chains heading her way, A figure with wing's, but it was barely noticeable, but the sound was as clear as day.

The sound disappeared and soon a sound from behind her, she spun around to a panther, a black panther darker then the black surrounding her. A green glow coming from it's eyes and white wings with pure white feathers, Armor on the panther that was a dark blue with moon crescents. Nyx, the legendary beast of the night, Calm and mysterious. "Miss Trinity," Nyx spoke in a feminine voice. "I sense trouble heading our way," Nyx spoke. "We may need your brother to help us," Nyx said. "Why? What trouble? And what does my brother have to do with it?" Trinity asked confused with what was going on. "I have sense a great beast will arise again like it did many years ago, trinity, not even I have the power to stop it, we will need your brother's help, because his beast and I are strong together. I have this power to combine with Helios, Helios is my brother so we are easily connected." Nyx explained. "Together we are a powerful combination almost immortal, we are only immortal when connect with the last beast." Nyx said. "The last beast?" Trinity asked. "Yes, the beast of the stars, we need that beast to combine, but with us together we may not be able to defeat it." Nyx said quietly, "So what can we do to be able to defeat this threat," Trinity asked. "Sacrifice and not just anyone, you Trinity," said Nyx. "Me, why me?" Trinity asked surprised. "Because you are the night," Nyx said, "you hold the power of the night, the power of a goddess," Nyx said. "It's time for me to go, please be careful and don't be afraid. Time is running," Nyx said before disappeared into the black. "Dream," a voice spoke.

The dream isn't over yet,

Though I often say I can't forget,

Trinity's black world was filled with color, Sunset and an ocean in front of her, the cool water hitting her feet.

I still relive that day,

You've been there with me all the way,

"What are you doing?" a voice asked. "I'm taking a break why?" Trinity said. It was him, the one she had been looking for. "You know your suppose to be training," he said lightly behind her. "I know but I'm worn out we have been her for 6 hours." Trinity complained. "You whine to much," he said laughing. "Come on I'll take you home we can finish this tomorrow." He said lightly.

I still hear you say,

Wait for me I'll write you letters,

I could see how you stand with your eyes to the floor.

"Damn," he yelled punching the wall. "Hey, what are you doing," Trinity said as she saw him punch the wall. "It's nothing," he said angrily. "I know there is something wrong, you can tell me please," Trinity begged. He looked down hiding his face. Trinity stood confused but was snapped back to reality by the sound of a water drop hitting the floor. Trinity gasped. He was crying, never in her life did he cry. "What's the matter?" she asked lightly. She walked up to mine whispered softly, "Please tell me." He moved his head away from her. He touched his arm, "Don't touch me," he said venomously. She moved her hand quickly his voice pierced her heart. Trinity knew it was terrible what ever it was. She grabbed his arm again. He grabbed her arm and squeezed it hard she winced, but never moved. "Please tell me, you know that I am here for you not matter what happens, I don't want you to be hurt, it pains me to see you this way," she said softly, his grip loosened. He looked at her pain in his eyes. She embraced him. He was shocked but quickly embraced back. "He wants to get rid of me for good, send me to a foster home far away from you." He said to her. "I don't want to leave you." He said. He let go and walked to the doorway. "I'll come back I promise, I will always come back to you," he said looking down at the floor. And he ran she didn't go after him, she couldn't move.

But still I swore,

To hide the doubt when I turn back the pages,

Anger might have been the answer,

What if I hung my head and said that I couldn't wait,

But now I'm strong enough to know

It's not too late

He better live up to his promise, or I'm coming after him then.

Cause a thousand words,

Call out through the ages

They'll fly to you

Even though I can't see

I know there reaching you

Suspended on silver wings,

Oh a thousand words

One thousand embraces

Will cradle you

Making the weary days seem far away

They'll hold you forever,

"Trinity!" A voice yelled. She spun around to face him, he was running down the street, "I'm not going, my mother convinced him to let me stay," the guy said. She smiled running to him and into his arms, safe and happy. "That's good," she said, "I would have missed you too much if you left," Trinity said smiling. "Plus you promised," she said.
