1071 Chapter 56- Trinity – The Reveal Part 2 (VOLUME 6)

Trinity

~~

I watched as the reporter stormed away. She wasn’t sulking, not really. Instead, it was like she was more determined than ever to investigate and look into me. I knew that a woman like this could be a major threat to us, but she could also be a weapon.

If Lara the reporter thought that she would be able to get the biggest scoop of the millennium before anyone else had a shot at it, then she would most likely be willing to bind herself with us more than anyone else would. Not only that, but she seemed so desperate to know the truth about us, to know that the world was filled with mythological creatures. That could be a major boon for us.

When Lara made it back to the group of other reporters, I saw that they descended on her like vultures to a feast left for them in the desert. They were desperate to get more information from her, information that they didn’t even know anything about. That was fine. I understand that was how the journalists and reporters of the world were. They were the ones with the most curious minds in existence. They can’t leave a story alone until they have uncovered everything that has to do with it. It was just in their nature.

The swell of people that was arriving for the big show was growing steadily as they made their way toward the stands. There were a lot of people that I recognized among the crowd. People that lived here in the city that weren’t human, and several of them that were humans.

Among the crowd I saw that there was the grandson of Franny from the diner, Ewan. He was here with a group of other servers that knew us from our times going there to eat. I saw the human staff members that worked at the businesses that Reece and I owned. Not all of them, of course, but a lot of them. They would be people that knew Reece and I, that knew what we were like, and would hopefully not react too negatively at what was about to happen. We needed some positive support from humans when all of this started to get underway.

After another couple of minutes just standing there and watching the crowds that were arriving, I turned and went back to the others. I knew that they had a crew that had come through and checked everything the night before and again this morning, but we weren’t leaving anything up to chance. Our massive group of people, aside from making sure that everything was arranged perfectly on the raised stage, had taken the time to make sure that there were no surprises hiding here for us.

…..

That staff had gone out and searched the entire stadium, every nook and cranny of it. They had done that before anyone else got here this morning. And they were still running security to make sure that no one was in any danger at the moment. They didn’t want to worry about someone that might have gotten wind of what was happening and were here to try and assassinate someone.

Hahh! I sighed internally to myself. I was being paranoid. I knew that things were going to be fine. We had kept the lid on all of this with no issues so far. There was no one that knew what was going to happen here today. At least not anyone that we hadn’t intentionally included in this whole process. And those people were here with us right now, well some of them, so they wouldn’t want to get themselves hurt as well. We were good. I knew that. I was just being paranoid.

There was no announcer that we needed to wait on. Reece and I would be doing the talking, like we were used to doing. We had been leading half of the world’s population for most of the last twenty years, so this wasn’t going to be any different than that. We were ready to do what needed to be done. Yup, definitely ready.

As the crowd finished taking their seats, a hush started to spread over the stadium. It was like they all knew on a subconscious level that the show was about to begin. They were all waiting for us, their breaths held and the anticipation rising. Hell, even I was starting to feel excited.

Looking over at Reece, Reagan, and Rika, I saw that they were excited as well. Maybe not excited, that might be the wrong word here. That meant that there was a level of happiness that went with it all. They weren’t actually happy, but they were buzzing with energy. And it was clear to me that they were ready for what needed to happen next. They were almost vibrating with the electricity of that energy.

And they weren’t the only ones that were keyed up and electrified. Shawn, Dietrich, Shane, David, Rawlynne, Jackson, Gabriel, everyone that was here with us, they were also buzzing with that same energy. They were ready to begin, and that told me that it was time for me to start the show.

Reece and I, walking hand in hand, moved to the center of the stage. Reagan and Rika followed behind us, and the typical entourage followed in a half circle to protect us. They wanted to make sure that they showed the entire world, well all those that were awake at the moment, that we were a united front. And that we weren’t going to abandon each other, no matter the cost.

I gave my best and most regal smile as I stopped in the middle of the stage. It was time for us to begin.

“Thank you all for coming and joining us here today in Colorado Springs, Colorado. And to those of you watching from home, I want to thank you for tuning in. I know that a lot of you might be trying to change the channel at the moment, but these broadcasts are going to be on every channel, every network, and every medium. Even those that are watching on computers, phones, tablets, and other devices, you will not be able to close out this broadcast. This is an important announcement that is being broadcast globally. There is something vitally important that we have to share with you all today.”

“We understand that this might be upsetting, having the things that you were doing interrupted for something that you do not understand yet. However, we ask that you bear with us please, and allow us to explain all of this to you.” Reece started to speak loud and firm, voice filled with confidence. “Some of you might know me by name, some by appearance, others by reputation. My name is Reece Gray, and this lovely woman next to me is my wife, Trinity. These, here, are our children, the twins Reagan and Rika Gray.” Reece indicated them and the two smiled and nodded as their names were called.

“There are going to be some things that you hear today that you do not understand.” I looked toward the reporters and saw that they were lapping up the information eagerly. They were so excited to get started with their stories, but they weren’t done collecting data yet. “We have here with us, on this stage, several friends from the area here in Colorado Springs.” I was doing my best to make sure that I spoke as clearly as possible. I felt like I might get tongue tied or slip up because of the excitement of the moment.

I knew that I needed to continue though. I couldn’t pause for long or I would lose my momentum.

“There are also a lot of friends and colleagues from several other nations. I will introduce them to you here in a moment, but before I get to that, I want you all to understand that everything that you see here today is one hundred percent real. There is no smoke and mirrors. There are no tricks. Everything that we show you today will be for your educational purposes only. We are here to share something with the world, something that we cannot hide anymore.”

There was a rushing sort of sensation that went through me then. A sort of jolting butterfly rippling in my belly. I knew that it was nerves mixed with about a million other emotions at the moment. I didn’t know what I was going to do right now, but I knew that I couldn’t stop. Not yet.

“As my wife mentioned, we have a lot of colleagues here with us. Let me start by telling you who they are.” He started with the guards that were surrounding us, giving their names and that was all.

After that, Reece moved onto the others that were on the stage with us. First, he mentioned those that were local. Then the ones that were from here in the United States. Lastly, he started to introduce the others that were from different countries and continents. He told them where they were all from, their nationality, and of course their name as well. And he did all of this smoothly with no stops or stutters.

I could see the reporters once more. They were writing down or recording all the names as they were given. They probably had some sort of short hand that they used, otherwise they wouldn’t get all the names in time. There were just too many of them being given in a quick succession.

Now, it was my time to continue. We had already agreed that I would be the one to break the actual news to the crowd. I knew that it wasn’t likely that any of these people were going to believe a word that I was about to say, but they would understand, and hopefully believe, before the day was over. We wouldn’t leave here until we could at least partially convince all of these people in the audience. Or fully convince at least a part of them. I would settle for either of those scenarios.

Taking a deep and steadying breath, I braced myself for just a moment before I started to speak again. There had truly only been the smallest of all pauses between Reece and I speaking, but it almost felt like an eternity to me as I settled my nerves.

“Now, what we would like to tell you, and soon show you, is that we are different from a lot of the people on this planet. My family that is here with me, all of us here on this stage, and indeed half of the people on this planet are very different from a lot of you that are watching this broadcast. You see, most of you are human. That is to be expected. And you would think, at first glance, that we are humans as well.”

Another little pause. Another deep calming and settling breath. A quick glance at the gathered crowd and over toward the reporters. I noticed the shocked face that Lara was wearing as she looked right at me. She was definitely not expecting this.

“You would be wrong though, to assume that about us. We are not humans. In fact, we are a variety of other beings. We are the beings of myths and legends that most humans do not think exist. We are an eclectic mix of people that live together in harmony with each other and with all of you . We are supernatural beings. And I am here to tell you that we are here to stay.”

I don’t know what I wanted to hear at that moment, following that big revelation, but the complete silence of the stadium wasn’t it. Were they all still stunned into silence? Were they waiting for more? Did they not believe me? There was just so much that was possible right now, and I was trying to figure it all out before I continued.
