Epic of Bee

Helaina's ears perked up, and she blinked a few times before smiling widely.

"Really? You mean it?" She asked, and I nodded eagerly. "I would love to be your wife!" Helaina squealed as she threw her arms around my neck and pulled me into a tight embrace.

It felt good just to relax in the comfort of her arms, but now it was time for the good stuff! I was always excited to see what unique new classes the girls would get!

"Are you ready? I am going to accept you as one of my subjects and as one of my wives," I explained, and Helaina nodded, breaking away and moving back from me. I could see Sakura watching her intently as we were carried back to the top deck on Shiva's back.

[Legendary Gene] Acquired!

Helaina flashed, but when the light cleared, I was all smiles when I saw how good she looked and how cool!

"That looks great on you, babe," I said as she smiled back at me. "You got the Yellow Jacket Gene! What else did you get?" I asked, and Helaina's eyes lit up.

"I got a lot! I didn't expect to get so much!" She exclaimed before quickly listing off what she had gotten. "I am now a Legendary Yellow Jacket Sniper, my class is now First Free Queen Wasp, and I also have the Long Range Expert Trait!"

"That's amazing! Congratulations!" Sakura called out as she walked close and gave her a big hug. "You are one step closer to becoming a true queen!" The fox girl added with excitement in her voice. Helaina just blushed brightly but was still all smiles.

"Ashia is the True Queen, and now I can protect her! I have more than enough weapons now!" Helaina as she came over to hug me.

It looked like things were going to be just fine after all, even though we still had our work cut out for us, but this was one more thing off the list. I started to go over Helaina's skills with her, and Sakura came over, looking mighty curious.

"Can I see whatever you guys are looking at?" Sakura asked, and I nodded as I made a copy of Helaina's stats using a projector from one of my fingers. "Woah! What is all this stuff?! There is like a wall of text here!"

"There is a lot, but you wouldn't want to see what mine looks like. This is because I was able to remove something called the W1 Virus. I think that means that I will have to do this again, but not with a Wasp. I think there might be other infected races as well, but they aren't important right now," I explained as the way ahead finally opened up to the main bridge, and we slowed down to a stop.

"We have arrived at the bridge. Please make your way to the command center," Shiva announced, and we all started walking again.

"So, what exactly is this W1 Virus?" Sakura asked as we walked, and I quickly explained what it was and how I had gotten rid of it. "That's really bad! We need to find a way to stop it from spreading!" The fox girl exclaimed with worry in her voice.

"I know, but right now, our priority is stopping the Sky Folk, but we have to get to the Meccat Empire first and get back Rai Cait's core. There is also the Tellarider, but once that is dealt with, then we can focus on curing the rest," I explained as we reached the command center and found a large golden Mecha-Catman Ria Cait waiting for us.

"So, looks like one of the girls is brand new looking? Does this mean the Queen has another mate?! You are just one roll! When are you hoping for a ship, Miss Kitty? You are going to fall behind soon if you don't become accepted by your Queen as what you really want, right?!" Rai Cait teased Sakura, and she glared at her ex-boyfriend.

"Baka! I am not interested in being just a mate! I want to be just another one!" Sakura exclaimed, and Rai Cait's grin just got wider, but I put up my hands.

"Shut up, Rai Cait, or you can go back to flying the ship since that is your job; you don't actually need to be here," I growled, and Ria Cait put up his hands.

"Fine, fine. Just trying to have some fun. So, what can I do for you guys?" He asked, and I quickly explained the plan as Helaina walked over and sat in my lap after I took a seat.

"That sounds like a good plan. I can get us there in a few days if we push the engines," Rai Cait said, and I nodded before standing up with Helaina.

"We will be in our room then, let us know when we need to be on the bridge," I explained, and Rai Cait nodded as we walked out.

"Oh! One more thing!" He called out, and I turned to look at him. "You might want to put on some clothes before you go walking around the ship like that. Just a suggestion." He added with a wink, and I just glared at him before turning back around and continuing on our way.

Sakura was giggling by my side, but Helaina just had her head buried in my chest with a bright blush on her face; she really was too easy to embarrass. Though, it was strange to have a man like Rai Cait on the bridge. The other men like Tag and Sig or Gamble would never dream of looking at me like that or making comments, but I could let it slide for now.

If the stupid God decided to go too far, I would put him in his place if need be, but for now, I had gotten him to do the brunt of the work. I had told him to get the Vampires all working on helping the Skyfolk that we had rescued, and that was really all I could get people to do at this point.

I floated us down the metal path that opened as we went, like the ship was a living thing on our way to the room. It was a little disconcerting to think about, but I had to admit that it was pretty amazing.

When we reached our room, I put Helaina and Sakura down on the bed before taking a seat between them and letting out a long sigh. It felt good to just relax for a bit, but there was still so much that needed to be done.

"Is everything alright?" Helaina asked as she scooted closer and laid her head in my lap.

I stroked my fingers through her hair as I nodded; even though things were far from perfect, they were definitely better than they had been before. With the girls by my side, I knew that we could take on anything the world threw at us and come out on top.

"I just Bee Otter energy. I Mink I need some Sheep, and I am sure I will feel Butter after," I mumbled as my eyes closed with an inevitable force, and I tipped back, not remembering hitting the bed.
