Should Have Let Me Die - Chapter 228
I needed to calm down. Everyone had backed up and away from me, and they were all looking either worried or scared. Kyra was coming over from the ship with Titania, and Xelios and they walked right up to me.
“Are you okay? What happened?” Kyra asked, looking at my face.
I dusted my hands off on my shirt and then tried to get most of the sand off my shirt before trying to wipe my face. Once I was done, I took a deep breath and explained what happened.
I called the others over as well because most of them didn’t know what happened. I had just been a raging fit before and I’m sure all I did was scare everyone.
I turned to Trinity, and put my arms out to her. She was slow to come, but then she ran to give me a hug.
She had little small tusks poking up from the corners of her mouth, and her hair was done in thick dreadlocks. Even though she was just sand, it was good to see her again.
She was short and built the same way Violet was, stacked with lovely hips, but the trigger for knowing just who she was was the races. Vampire, Human, Elf, and then Orc was the order of class she would rotate through in Second Life.
“Don’t know who you think I am or what happened when you touched me, but I like this body!” Trinity said after letting go of me and stepping back.
“It’s okay, I know who you are, and that’s all that matters. Now I can keep you safe,” I said with a smile.
Then tension was gone and I was getting incredibly hungry. Getting your mind shattered worked up quite the appetite it seemed.
“How about we all go in and get something to eat?”
Everyone agreed, and it was time we left this island anyways. I also wanted to learn about the ass-kicking Vector Blocks that let this ship move.
Tamika and Violet were talking with Eva and Trinity while walking together, so I took Kyra and Xelios’s hands as we walked in. Even after that crazy shit, things always seem to somehow pull themselves back to normal.
This was a good thing, but finding out that Trinity had been split into four was weird. I wonder if it was Reginold or Dave that did it? Hopefully my brother, but then he would have had to do it in the game, but how?
These weren’t thoughts I could puzzle out myself, so I pushed them away for now. Titania and Keepa walked in behind us, both were silent, but they wouldn’t have much to talk about. When we walked back inside, Captain Black was waiting.
“Are you done making a commotion? Ready to head to the next one?” Jenna asked me with a grin.
“Are you going to show me how it works?” I asked walking over to her with my girls.
“You should ask the pilot, Tescelle at the front of the ship,” Jenna said, motioning to the door that led to the hall.
I turned and kissed Kyra and Xelios, asking them if they could get some food to snack on while I talked with Tescelle. The two of us hadn’t really talked since I got back so it would be good to go see her.
I headed out of the room, and then down the hall to the last door at the front of the ship. I pressed the button and walked in to find Tescelle looking over her map and comparing some notes.
She turned to me when I entered with a smile.
“Nice to see you again stranger,” Tescelle said with a smile as I walked over and took her into my arms, kissing her.
“Sorry, my love. How have you been?”
“Better now that you are back,” Tescelle said, while still holding me tight and resting her head on my shoulder.
That’s right, she was flying this when I got shit kicked by the blocks.
“You know that it wasn’t your fault, it was mine for not watching our daughter, and getting distracted. There was nothing you could have done about it.”
I held her for a bit longer, just letting her rest on me. Soon, Tescelle pulled away, wiping a small tear away, but I took her face in my hands and kissed her again.
“I love you, you’re really an amazing person, and a treasure to have by my side. Now, I would like for you to explain how these ass-kicking blocks work!”
Tescelle laughed and then pulled away, but took me by the hand and pulled me to a sphere in a pedestal that she had been blocking when I came in. The object was metal and looked like some kind of mixture of copper and brass.
“This is the controller for the Vector Blocks. With it, we can go up and down, forward and back. We can also turn, but we can only ever do one thing at a time. If we want to turn, we have to stop, but the blocks move so smoothly, it is like using a calm form of Trem’s magic. The ship has orbs like these on the outside of the ship, and they are why you were sucked in, Kyla was incredibly lucky that you are so fast.”
“Well, now I know that I stay inside while we fly! So where to next my lovely pilot?”
“The Frost Island, it is the safest route from here,” Tescelle said, about to touch the sphere, but I pulled her hand back, and pulled her into another kiss.
“Come, let’s go get something to eat first, and then we can get out of here, but I haven’t got to see much of you. So, let’s go and join the rest of the women, okay?”
“That would be really nice! Thank you, I love when you try to do little things like this,” Tescelle said, tucking her around mine, and giving me a kiss.
“I am trying, and I will keep on. I might not be perfect, but I will try my best to keep that beautiful smile on your pretty face!”
