章 19: Chapter 19: Freedom and Family
Pyran transported them both to the edge of the seal after they packed up. Trini did not allow him to destroy house. So, he had to pack it in the pocket dimension too. He has been working on the pocket dimension alongside his training. The pocket dimension has all the necessary tools for surviving but have to wait for all the resources to grow before it can be occupied.
When they got teleported near the seal, Trini was in a state of excitement, worry and nervousness. Then Pyran used the passcode to bypass the seal. He then took Trini along with him to the outside. Before going out he shielded them with a barrier that will make them invisible to anyone outside.
Once they stepped outside the seal, Pyran immediately teleported them to an Island in the human world. Trini was completely disoriented. But after a few seconds she got her bearing together. Then she took a clear look at the outside.
Trini looked at the blue sky, green vegetation, the nearby river and the surrounding vast ocean. She inhaled a big lump of air. Without her knowing, she started to shed tears. She always wanted this.
Trini was dreaming of this view and fantasizing when she will be able to see these things with her own eyes. Feel all these sensations. Hear all these sounds. She wanted all of these. Now that she was outside, she was really happy but was also afraid. She was afraid because that this will all turned out be a dream. And even if this was a dream, she didn't want to wake up.
Pyran got close to her and gave a gentle hug. Trini then put her weight on his chest and just looked at the vast ocean and said, "Pyran, this is not a dream, right? I'm really on the outside looking at all this wonderful scenery. I'm finally free, right?"
Pyran understood her feeling and gently comforted. "You don't have to worry about anything Trini. This is not a dream and you definitely did not imagine anything. You are free and I'm here to keep it that way." Then placed a kiss on the top of her head.
They spent the rest of the day in the island exploring. Trini was excited and curious. She asked all kinds of doubts and details about every little thing. Pyran was amused and was happy to reply her with explanation. For those he was unable to explain, he will immediately send an order to the clones to get information on these things.
Once Trine was satisfied, they teleported back to underworld where their base was located. Pyran teleported them directly to his house. He was met with the maid who was the little girl saved by Gilbur all those years ago. She is staying in his mansion along with her mother. Her name was Nina and her mother's name was Shina. They are responsible for keeping the mansion clean and stocked when Pyran and Gilbur is not in. If they are in, they are also responsible for food and laundry too.
"Oh Master! You are back!! How was the trip? Did everything go alright?" Nina first jumped in surprise and was ready to attack. But after getting a good look she started to questioning enthusiastically.
Seeing the Nina's closeness to Pyran, Trini was got vigilant and was ready to defend what was hers. But after looking at the maid's expression, she was only able to find admiration and respect. Then she let her guard down and was looking around in amazement.
Once Nina finished her queries, Pyran took an annoyed look and said, "Hey Nina, how many times did I have to tell you to stop calling me Master. I told you to call be brother."
Nina turned to him as said in a righteous manner, "Proper address should be given to the master of the house. If not, mother will starve me." But then end of the speech became one of blaming. But all could see that she was only doing that so that to get on the nerves of Pyran.
And like a light switch, it got the result she wanted. Pyran got annoyed and started to mumble something about finding the person who invented the noble etiquettes and skewer him.
Trini looked at this all and was amused. She has seen him flustered, angry, happy and many more, but never seen him annoyed. She just started to chuckle. She was finding it hard for her to imagine that he was not capable of doing anything. But here he is trying to make others follow what he was not comfortable with.
It was then Nina was aware of the new comer. Suddenly her demeanor changer from a active and mischievous woman to a timid and shy woman. After all these years she was only comfortable with all those that are close with her. It took a lot of time for her to get comfortable with Pyran and Gilbur.
Pyran then came out of his annoyed mood and then noticed Nina's behavior. It was then he realized that he had not yet introduced Trini. He then got a mischievous plan to scare Nina. Pyran then said in a jovial tone, "Oh sorry Nina, I forgot to introduce her. This is Trini. I saved her on the way." Then turned to Trini. "Hey Trini, this is Nina. The cute little girl that I saved all those years ago."
Nina then shyly greeted Trini. Before Trini could greet, Pyran said, "Oh, forgot to inform you, Trihexa might try to stay in our base for few years." Trini was confused as to why Pyran was informing Nina about her in a weird way. But when she turned to Nina, she was cleared of her doubts as Nina got pale as a ghost in seconds.
Trini turned to Pyran in an angry and amused look. Then looked at Nina. When she was trying to console Nina. Shina walked in. She heard all the talks that went through the main hall. Shina then walked in and said in a tired tone,
"Master, can you not scare Nina like that. She was already refused leave the house. If you started to tease her like this, she will never leave her room." When she finished, Nina ran to her with tears forming in her eyes.
Nina said in a fearful and crying tone, "Mom, Master angered Trihexa! The world is going to end. I knew Master will do something like that sooner or later. But not this soon. I want to live. Please do something Mom!"
Shina then glared at Pyran who had an amused and exasperated look. Pyran then said in an amused tone, "Hey Nina, what have you pictured me in the weird head of yours! I'm not the kind of guy goes out and stir up problems here and there."
Nina just ignored him and was pleading with Shina. Shina started to rub her forehead and said, "This is why I said you have to stop teasing her in an overboard manner, Master. And Nina, no one is going to take your life and the world is not ending."
Trini just looked this Drama and started to laugh. She was amused by Nina, Shina and Pyran's behavior. She also jumped into Pyran's Mischief and introduced herself to Nina and Shina, "Hi there, I'm Trinity Hyperion Hexaron AKA Trihexa. You can call me Trini for short."
This made Nina choke up and Shina to open her eyes wide open. Pyran was enjoying the look on Shina and Nina, and was grinning ear to ear. Trini was covering her mouth and chuckling. This was the sight Gilbur saw when he Teleported in. He was confused about what was going on.
Gilbur then asked Pyran in confusion, "So, care to explain what is going on?"
To which Pyran just said in careless tone, "I just Introduced Trini." It made Gilbur turn to Pyran in the same confused look. Then it struck him. Only he and Pyran knew Trini is Trihexa. They have never shared about this anyone else. This made Gilbur sigh tiredly and then shake his head.
Gilbur then started to calm Nina and Shina. Then he explained to then Trini is not what they think she is and was just another living being. Then Pyran pitched in, to explain what happened to Trini and why she was called Trihexa. When she was first created, she tried to talk to other but all that came out was, "I…. Tri….. Hy… Hexa….." So, she was then called as Trihexa.
When Pyran finished his explanation. Nina came near Trini and gave a long comforting hug. Shina the came to her and held her hand and said, "As Pyran said earlier, you are just a kid even if you are born earlier than all of us. You have just got your consciousness. So, you are like a small kid to me. From now on I want you to, no, I order you to call me Mom just like Nina calls me."
Gilbur then pitched in, "You can call me dad then!" He said that in a matter-of-fact tone. Oh yeah, Gilbur married Shina and adopted Nina as his step-daughter. They are a family. But they decided that they will be retainers of Pyran. So, Shina handles all the internal matters such as maintaining the mansion, finance and inventory. Gilbur handles security and logistics. This was until Pyran creates his own team.
Then Pyran introduced Trini in formally, "So let me introduce her again. This is Trinity Hyperion Hexaron. You can call her Trini. She will be our new family member. And she is my lover and fiancé." Initially Trini was smiling. But when the last part came in, she became extremely shy and blushing furiously. She then came behind pyran and hid herself.
Everyone else was shocked speechless. Gilbur then came out of his daze and said, "You went to save her and made her your bride-to-be. What the hell? I know you took 3 years but this is too much. But all is good. I seriously doubted that your orientation leans on the other side. Finally, it got cleared."
Pyran was speechless. He wanted to retort, but Nina then went to Trini and said, "Trini now you are like my sister. You can tell me anything. If he deceived you into falling for him let me know. I will help you. You just have to blink twice if you cannot say it loud. I will handle everything else."
Without letting Pyran speak, Shina said, "Yes, just let us know what he did. We will help you analyze and let you know if he deceived you. We will clear you of any doubts if he took advantage of your naivety when you were getting hold of your thoughts. We will be on your side."
Pyran was speechless and started to mumble under his breath, "I just found someone I love. What was there to be so surprised about. Not like I was being a monk. I just didn't meet anyone that caught my interest and you assumed I lean the other way? And when did I deceive Trini. I just found out that she was the one. Not like I cheated her into loving me."
Till now Trini was going through myriad of feelings like being happy, touched, warmth, joy, love, etc. But all that turned into a full-blown laughter when she heard Pyran grumble in an annoyed and helpless tone.
This made Nina and Shina laugh too. Nina was laughing with her hand holding her stomach. Gilbur was having a gloating laugh but no one can miss the gentle and caring look when he looked at anyone present.
When Pyran looked at them all, he had a gentle smile and was thinking, 'This is what I always wanted. A carefree time with a family to call as my own. I waited a long time to achieve this. I will fight until my last breath to keep these smiles ever-present in their faces. This is my vow to them and to myself.'
After that they talked about all the things that happened when Pyran was in the seal saving Trini. Nina and Trini were talking on the side about all the common things. Nina was introducing Trini to the common sense of the present times. She was planning with Trini to take her out to experience everything that girls should be doing. But the main thing is that she is planning all this on behalf of her mother. She was afraid to go out herself.
Shina was planning to take both Trini and Nina out. For Trini to experience and learn about the modern times. For Nina to break out of her shell and let her know that outside is safe and she is strong enough to hold herself. She is planning this with Gilbur and Pyran. Gilbur was being the 'Yes man', while Pyran giving suggestions from the side.
Shina then went to prepare a room for Trini to stay. There was room in the same floor where Pyran's room was. Before she went, she took Trini to a room to take some measurements of Trini which made blushing when she came out. Shina wanted to prepare some clothes and daily necessities for the time being before they go out shopping tomorrow.
Nina was assigned by Shina to take her to the store room to pick something for Trini to wear for the night. She was also instructed to give a tour around the house. In all those activities, Pyran was not included. Shina said that Trini has to take time to get used to others. He should not always be there to walk her through everything. Or she will not grow into who she was. Rather she will only grow as whom he wanted to be.
Pyran understood that this for Trini's growth. He was reluctant to let go of her from his side even for one second. But he has to, as he will only hinder her growth. Looking at his face, which was morphed into a sad and reluctant look, Gilbur was gloating from the side.
When Pyran saw this, he was thinking, 'If I'm suffering, you will have to suffer too.' So, he immediately made plans for both to have work scheduled atleast for a full month without any break. This was the timeline set by Shina for him to meet Trini. He then ginned at Gilbur.
Gilbur was having a bad feeling when he saw the smile on Pyran. He was sure he will suffer for the days to come. And worst he was not the position to escape. One, he is not yet back to his peak. Two, Pyran was stronger than him currently. He then smiled helplessly.
They were all busy till dinner. They had a family dinner with small talks and laughter. Trini was experiencing and myriad of new feeling. Everything was new to her and she was looking forward to the days to come. After dinner, Gilbur and Pyran was standing in the balcony enjoying the breeze. When Gilbur said,
"You know all those years ago, when I took you from the Gremory, I did not think that life will come to this. But now that I see you having you found your trust and love back, my second wish was fulfilled. The First wish is almost complete. And all that left was my last wish. Our final goal. Let's get started, shall we?"
To this Pyran only nodded his head heavily. He fought for a happy family; he got them. He fought for a peaceful community; he got them too. All that left was grow his family and prepare a safe environment for his family and the community. From tomorrow, he will start to work on those.
