Trinity

"You think you can use legends against me? You think there is much that you could use in them to destroy me? I am not that monster from the legends. I am not the same hydra that was defeated back then. And I refuse to be defeated here and now. I am better than that Hydra. I will kill you. I will win. I will win. I will win. I will win." She was just repeating the same things over and over again. It was like she was stuck on repeat or something.
"You sound like a f.u.c.king broken record. What the h.e.l.l is the matter with you, dragon b.i.t.c.h? Did I scratch the record when I cut off your heads? I got two of them now, remember? Yeah, you regrew two after that, but you"re back down to only having three heads instead of having four now. And don"t worry, I will be cutting the other ones off soon enough." I chuckled at her. I have been laughing a lot since I removed her head. I was just so giddy that I was managing to make this work for me. I should probably thank the G.o.ddess that I remembered my legends and lore. Or should I say, the celestial history. Since all of this seemed to be real. All the old legends, all the old stories, all the old mysteries. All of them were real. All of them could potentially help me, if I just thought about them and remembered them all.
"RAWR!" Hekate roared in anger as she tried to lash out at me. Her long tail came swinging from behind her and whipped toward me at such a high rate of speed that it would have completely obliterated a human if one had been standing where I was.
However, I was not a human and that meant that this attack was not going to kill me. It wasn"t even going to hit me since I moved quick enough to leap out of the way and land crouched next to the wall on the dragon"s left side. She was missing a head over there and therefore wasn"t able to see me as clearly as if I had been on the other side.
"Is that all you have, Hekate? If it is, then I will be putting an end to this right now." I grinned at her. However, that was when I saw that she had not stopped moving since the moment that she had swung her tail toward me.
The wings on Hekate"s back were flapping and she was raising up quickly. And that tail of hers was still moving around in its dangerous spin. And the place that the tail was about to land had my heart thudding uncontrollably in my throat.
"Oh G.o.ddess, no! No! Not them! No!" I was already on the move when I saw where Hekate was aiming her next attack. That tail of hers, which was covered in long lethal spikes that I had not noticed when she initially turned into this ugly beast, was aiming right at the platform floating in the sky.
I needed to move fast. I needed to move the platform out of her way and make sure that the others were safe.
"HOLD ON TIGHT! ALEXIO! RUDY! DON"T LET GO OF THE BOYS! PROTECT THEM AND HANG ON!"
I screamed those words as fast as I could as I started to move the platform. Thankfully, I got them out of the way in time. By the time that the long, spiked Hydra tail swung through the spot that the others had just been in, the platform was about twenty feet away and out of danger. Well, out of immediate danger. But the dragon was still moving through the air, and that tail was still whipping around dangerously.
"Keep hanging on. I need to move you again." I called out to the others as I ran through the hall. I was already leaping through the air and making sure that the others were safe. I needed to stop that tail from hitting them, but I couldn"t let them stay in one place for too long or they might all be in danger.
I was running around the back of the Hydra dragon this time. I had my eyes fixed solely on the tail, aiming to cut that off like I had the most recent head. And while I was doing that, I kept the platform moving in a circle, whizzing through the air so that it wasn"t in one spot for more than a second at a time.
The problem was moving them the way that I was though, was that the place they would be was highly predictable. And the Hekate dragon b.i.t.c.h had figured that out. Just as I leapt and was about to slice that spiked tail off of her body, she lunged forward and was aiming a blast of frothing water at the wind platform.
"MOMMY, SAVE US!" Zachary was the first to cry out.
"Queen Trinity, we need your help!" Rudy was the next to say something.
"MOMMY THE DRAGON! ITS MOUTH! SAVE US!" Zander was next.
"HELP US MOMMY!" Zayden whimpered.
"I don"t know how to stop this, Trinity." Alexio sounded distressed.
"Just hold tight. I"m coming."
And I was too. I was running as quickly as I could. I was making platform after platform in the air as I ran as quickly as I could force myself to. I was almost there, but I just didn"t think that I was going to be able to get there before the water blasted from the Hydra"s two heads.
I could hear the bubbling from inside the dragon"s two water mouths as those two heads reared back. I could see the white foam that was forming around its two sets of dragon lips. And I could even see a truly wicked grin on the main head"s face as it saw how scared the kids were, how worried the men were, and how frantic I was.
"Do you see what your pride gets you, Trinity Gray? Do you see what you have brought on those that you care about? Do you see what happens when you take on the great Hekate? HA! HA! HA! HA! HA! HA! HA! HA!" That smug voice followed by that laugh, man it was making my blood boil more than that water in her two f.u.c.king water mouths. I was so p.i.s.sed off and angry because she was absolutely right.
I watched then, still running as hard and as fast as I could, as the water left the mouths of the two water heads. It smelt like sulfur and burnt flesh. Under those two main scents was the distinct scent of rotten eggs and spoiled milk. What the h.e.l.l was that? Was it just mixing all the disgusting and nasty smells together into one?
I didn"t have time to think about that. I needed to do what I could to stop that water blast from hitting the others. I needed to protect Rudy, Alexio, Zachary, Zander and Zayden. I needed to save them.. I needed to make sure that I didn"t fail them, any of them.
