Chapter 743 - Split Chapter – Time To Go Home (VOLUME 4)

Reece

I don't think that I had ever seen my Little Bunny do something that was as sad as that. I know that she didn't truly love her father, but he was a part of her. And I do not know what all she found out about him before I started watching these images of her. She did mention something about his childhood. I have a feeling that she felt something about him because of that. Pity, heartache, something.

Whatever it was that my Little Bunny had gone through, whatever it was that she felt now, it was hurting her. She was telling her father to leave his body. She was, in all sense, exorcising his soul from a mangled body.

And that body was definitely not something that was easy to look at. That was gross, there was no other way to say it. That was a tangled and torn mass of flesh that used to be someone's body. And don't even get me started on how a person in the underworld, who was already dead, could have a body filled with blood and gore. That just was not computing into my brain properly. I didn't know how I was going to process that. It was all just a little too much for the time being.

Still, seeing my Little Bunny saying goodbye to her father, watching her kiss his forehead and telling him to find happiness, that brought tears to my eyes. I know that my Little Bunny was crying as she did that, but I didn't expect for it to make me cry as well. I am guessing that it was reacting to the heartache that my wife was feeling and not me being sad about Edmond.

I was thankful that he had saved my boys, but I didn't feel anything truly special for him. I might not hate the man anymore. In truth though, that hatred of him had somewhat lessened over the years. I didn't need to worry about him, and he was out of our lives for several years now. There was no reason for me to hold onto that anger. Not like Trevor. I knew that he was going to hate Edmond forever. 

"You did what you needed to do, Little Bunny. Come home to me now." I whispered the words to my wife. I couldn't help it. I had to say them.

When I turned to look back at the others, they were all crying as well. Silent tears were streaming down their cheeks as they looked at me with red rimmed eyes. They had been crying with me as I released Edmond's soul from this underworld body of his. And they were having as hard of a time with it as I was.

"Well, what do you say we.." I was starting to speak to them all when I heard a whispered voice. 

"You did what you needed to do, Little Bunny. Come home to me now." It was Reece's voice, and it made my heart contract with sadness when I heard it. He sounded as if he had been crying as well. I don't know why he was crying but it made my heart hurt thinking about it.

"Reece?" I called out to him. "Can you hear me, Reece?" I knew that I wasn't the only one to have heard him speak to me. Rudy and Alexio were looking all around them as if trying to find the source of the voice. And the boys were smiling. It was like they knew that the man that had just spoken was indeed their father.

"Mommy! Is that Daddy's voice?" Zayden was excited when he said that.

"Yes, sweetheart. That is your daddy's voice."

"I want to go home so that we can see Daddy." Zander giggled.

"You dummy, we're not born yet. We can't see Daddy until after we're born." Zachary scolded his brother.

"Yeah, I know, but I can listen to Daddy while I'm in Mommy's tummy. And when we are born, Daddy will be there for us. I want to see him."

"And I want to see you boys as well." Reece sounded like there was nothing but love coming from him at the moment. Love and happiness. "Come home to me, Little Bunny. Come home and be with the rest of your family. We all miss you. We all need you here with us."

"I'm coming home, Reece. I want to get out of here. I want to feel your arms around me. I need hugs from you, Talia, Reagan and Rika."

"Who are they, Mommy?"

"Who is Talia?"

"Who are Reagan and Rika?" Of course, they would be curious.

"Talia and Rika are your sisters. Reagan is your brother."

"We have sisters." Zayden giggled happily.

"And a brother!" Zachary was excited.

"We're going to be a big family." Zander laughed.

"That we are. Now, let's get going." I stood and started to walk toward my boys, but I stopped almost instantly as I looked at Alexio.

"You're leaving us here, aren't you?" He seemed upset, but like he was expecting this.

"Actually, Alexio, I was hoping that both you and Rudy would come with me. You both deserve better than the lives that you lived before. And with your help, maybe we can do something about the way that the underworld is being run."

"You're going to change it?" His eyes popped open wide. It was as if he wasn't really able to believe what it was that I was saying.

"Yes. If you want to help me, that is."

"Thank you, Trinity. Thank you." He looked like those little tears from before were going to turn into full blown sobbing.

"Just come with me, Alexio. We will give you a home in the land of the living. And I promise you, things will get better."

"Yeah, I will. I will go with you, Trinity. I mean, Queen Trinity." He bowed his head a little at me, and I didn't miss the smile that was on his lips either.

"Come on, Rudy. You're coming with us too."

"Yes, Queen Trinity. Thank you so much." He smiled at me and leapt to his feet with two of my boys in his arms. Alexio went to hold the third one.

"Now, how do we get out of here?" I was still confused about that.

"That is something that I do not know." Alexio sounded as if this bothered him. "I am the one with the most experience in the underworld and I don't know how to get out of here."

"Neither do I. I was nervous just leaving my position at the gate. I don't know how to escape from the underworld at all. I am sorry, Queen Trinity."

"Don't worry. We will figure it out. I have managed to figure everything else out so far, haven't I? This might take me a little while, but I am sure that I will find a way out of this hell and back to the land of the living." I put on as brave of a face as I could. I didn't want them to see just how nervous I was at that moment. Brave face, steady voice, and confident smile. That was the key here.

"I will help you."
