Epic of Bee

"So, now that we have looked at the fun stuff, I have a question for you, Miku, but first," I said turning to Messia. "Can I get ma honey?"

I tried to give her a cute smile, and it must have worked because she started to smile back warmly giving me that look I want growing more and more fond of, but she shook her head no.

"Sorry, I have to feed it to whomever you choose," Messia said, with her smile turning apologetic.

"Sure, as long as I can watch," I said, screaming internally, trying to stop myself from the verbal diarrhea that just spewed from my mouth.

Messia tilted her head at me while raising an eyebrow, and I could feel my face heat up. This was an ostrich moment, but there was no sand to bury my head, and I was a Bee. Not an oversized chicken!

"Alright, Miku is the one you want, right?" Messia said, brushing off my comment after seeing that I had just said it by mistake, or so I thought.

"Uh, yeah, that's right, but, Xani, you are ok to watch your sister, and then we can do you next? I just thought that you would be the best to monitor first," I said, hoping not to offend for just assuming that she would want the nerd job, but I wasn't wrong.

"Sure, I have no problem with it, I can watch over Miku, and she can do me after," Xani said, with a smile, but Queeny was buzzing around the two ferret girls suspiciously.

"What's wrong Queeny?" I asked.

"Hmm, they will have to be done at the same time. They have both tasted your honey, and the connection they share is very strong. Messia will give half to each, confirm, Messia?" Queeny asked as she flew over.

"Confirmed, Queeny," Messia said, stepping over to me. "Girls, come over here so Ashia can watch how it happens."

GAH! She got me! I could see the self-satisfied look, and that was all I needed to know that she was playing with me. This was fine, I shall observe, but the more I thought about it the funnier it became, but I kept my giggles in.

Miku and Xani both stepped up to Messia, and opened up with open-mouthed awes. I watched enthralled as Messia's long tongue snaked out and entered Miku's mouth.

As the tip of Messia's tongue began to spray golden rain onto her tongue, Miku slowly closed her mouth and eyes. I watched in rapture until I saw Miku's body relax and she opened her mouth but kept her eyes closed as she sat down.

Messia performed the same ritual with Xani, but I was focused on Miku still. She was starting to sweat, but it was coming out gold at a rapid pace.

Miku looked happy, so I left her, and just watched as the honey covered her entire body. Xani was done now and she sank to the floor, and the same process started, but she cuddled into her sister and put her hands on Miku's.

Riza had taken my hand and I had barely noticed, and now Messia was taking my other. I couldn't look away as the honey covered their bodies up to ten centimeters thick in some places.

"Now what? Are they going to be okay?" I asked Queeny who had been buzzing around them the entire time.

"Yes, they will be more than fine. The shell thickness that they produced should speed things up dramatically. I cannot tell you how long it will take, but when they are ready to hatch, you will be prompted to give each of two of your stored Genes," Queeny explained.

"So if I use them I lose them?" I asked, not wanting that to be true, but understanding if it was.

"No, you will always keep the Gene's stored in the bank. When your subjects evolve normally you will give them a single Gene, but the Royal Honey acts as its own and they will still evolve at the class level, but their classes and skills will be altered, but these things you will not need to worry about in the future," Queeny explained.

"Why?" I really didn't have anything else, but I wanted to know why I didn't need to worry.

"For your normal subjects, you will have set class designations after the first time you use them. After, you can implant gene bundles for them to evolve on their own," Queeny told me, but then continued. "Messia will need to feed the girl at least four times a day. She will have just under half of her Royal Honey reserves left for this. That means that you will be spending a lot of time near the village."

That was fine, and tomorrow I would like to look through the rest of this stuff. I could get Riza to help me clean and sort the place, and this way I could collect a wider variety of Gene's.

"Are you ready to go? The girls should Bee fine until morning, and I am sure the other girls will be getting back soon. We will have to get them to come here, and use what they have collected to make some hives for us to sleep in," Messia said, guiding me out the door.

I ignored the intended pun as I saw her smile, and I took one last look back at the peaceful girls that were dipped in honey. I was over the moon excited about seeing what happened, but I was starting to get tired.

When we got outside, we didn't see any yellow and brown, so Tag and Sig weren't back with the girls yet. The sun was starting to go down, and I hoped they got back soon. I didn't want them to be out after dark, but a message popped up in my vision.
