Epic of Bee

Chapter 44: Wind and Shadows



When I finally let them go, the girls were smiling brightly up to me, and I was filled with happiness to get them back now. It wasn't like they were gone, but it felt like I had just met them, and then they were gone in the Royal Honey.

"How do you girls feel? You didn't change on the outside, but I would imagine that something inside of you did," I said to them as I looked the two of them over.

"I feel like something is different, almost like I can feel the shadows in the room… woah, did you see that?!" Miku asked in surprise, and her shadow expanded out, but then she moved to touch her shadow and disappeared.

I was about to start to panic, but then Miku jumped out of a dark space.

"Woah! Did you see that?! I went into a black and white place, but the shadow was white, and I could walk outside through the wall! What is going on with me?" Mikua asked, looking down at her hands in wonder, not fear or worry.

"Xani, how do you feel? Can I scan Miku, and then I will come and do you, okay? I asked.

"Yes, I am fine for now, I am just going to," Xani said, but the image of her blew away and then reformed, bumping into Riza, who caught her. "Mostly okay, it will just take some getting used to… whatever this is."

I nodded to her and went over to Miku. She was making a shadow stretch and moving around like a little puppet. Queeny activated the scan, and I had to step back and push the screen away from me so I could see everything, awe. Now I have a ferret wife!

Okay, that was exactly what we needed to do what I wanted, but now I need to go see Xani, but I could see that Miku was still reading the chart. Then Queeny poofed into existence beside me.

After you scan, they will have access to it; you can leave her to look over everything," Queeny explained to me.

I nodded and then rushed over to Xani, who was smiling.

"That honey of yours was pretty potent stuff, Ashia, but I can't wait to see what mine says when you scan me!" Xani said, and I was surprised at how fast she caught on.

I ran my lit-up eyes over her, and the screen for her popped up, but I was already moving back. It was just the same as Miku's in something like my twin wives!

Another thing that I noticed was the same with them was the unique trait Royal Honey Gene Mutation. Queeny was still out, and I turned to her, figuring that she would know the answer.

"I am not sure about that part; there is no information stored about it yet. We might have to wait until something happens to tell. I am sorry," Queeny apologized to me.

"That's understandable, the skill itself is pretty vague, but I will assume it will just be some kind of more direct route to getting class evolutions. It is just a special perk of the Royal Honey, and like you said, we will have to figure it out," I said.

I stood back and looked around the room and at all the girls gathered. With what we had now, I could put my plan into action to try and start dealing with the main problem for the ferrets right now, the Weasels.

"Alright, everyone. This is going to be a bit shaky, but I think if we all put our heads together on this, we can work out a plan," I started to explain as I gathered everyone around.
