A taste of honey...Tasting much sweeter than wine
MNK:
This story is rather twisted, and there’s a good
explanation for it. A couple of years ago I got on one of the computers at the
school to look up info on the Supreme Kai. I’m not sure why, but that night,
when I fell asleep, I dreamt that I was getting on that website again, and that
all of the pictures of Higashi showed him with a split upper lip. (Probably the
week-old pepperoni pizza we had for dinner) I woke up, and a whole plot started
to form in my disturbed mind. This plot is the story that you are about to read.
(The Taste of Honey stories are completely separate from the others,
except for the characters.)
Ball Z, or any of the characters created by Akira Toriyama.
I own the Licans, the Shreans,
the Opalace, Aniria-sei,
take it from me. I’m flat broke, and this computer I’m writing this on is my
most valuable possession! (i.o.w.
I’m POOR!) Enjoy the story!
This story gets Lady Nice Kai’s Seal of Approval.

Chapter 1: Encounter In The Garden
his master walked in silence through the garden. An ingenious potion made by
returned their bodies to the prime of their youth. Each was secretly glad for
the privacy of his own mind. Nothing much was happening; the butterflies danced
on the air, and a cool breeze rustled the honey suckle and lilacs. “I love what
you’ve done with this place, Kibito.”

came along.” Kibito smiled sheepishly. He was very
proud of the new Kai planet, as he’d done much of the gardening.
he stared at a particularly full lilac. Something seemed odd, though. There was
a long, furry lavender vine hanging from one of the branches. “What the…” he
reached out and grabbed it.
the air, and a tangled figure came crashing to their feet, and lay there
twitching. It was a young woman, with silvery lavender hair in a pony tail. Her
tail writhed in his grasp like a poisonous snake. In shock, he and the other
Kai just stood there open jawed, as she lay whimpering
and twitching, curled up in a ball with tears running down her cheeks. “Let me
loose.” she whimpered. The two kais exchanged a confused look,
the sun, by the very Licans themselves, release me!”
she sobbed. Kibito held his arm a bit higher so that
her rump was lifted off the ground. Shin opened his mouth to protest, but felt
a murderous wave of energy emanating from her as she screamed in agony.

his sensitive ears.

arm.

her cheek.

heading up to train.” she sniffed. “Please----release me.” Shin could feel her
energy leaving her, as she wheezed. Her head slowly dropped, and her eyes
closed as her body went limp.

released her tail. He couldn’t even detect a rise and fall of her breast, so
she wasn’t breathing. Kibito looked devastated. He
couldn’t even fell her energy. “I didn’t MEAN to kill her…he whispered. “She
was so powerful…I was just trying to protect…” All out of the blue, her eyes
flew open, great orbs of pure lavender light, not the soft black that had been
there before. Lavender brows hung sharp over those lilac eyes, so filled with
rage and hate, and glowing with power. A split second after the opening of
those killer globes, she flung herself at Kibito,
tail wrapped around her waist, and sank her teeth into his leg, with her back
to Shin. The Supreme Kai was stunned, and without thinking fired a blast at her
back. It was absorbed into the flesh.
‘She’s a Lican! Blasts to the hands, feet, and back
just feed their power!’ Without warning, she swiftly rolled over and leapt to
her feet. Kibito fell to the grass, clutching his
injured leg. The girl stood straight and tall, her tail hanging loose behind
her, thrashing angrily. Her eyes returned to their former black, and her energy
was spiked even higher than ever. Shin stood behind his wounded body guard,
clutching his shoulder, feeling the wind racing about her as if she were the
center of the universe, sensing her power, greater than any he’d ever known
outside the Lican-Shrean family. Altogether it was
overwhelming him like a lack of oxygen. She stared directly into Shin’s eyes,
with an emotion he couldn’t recognize. Kibito
groaned. She tore her eyes from Shin’s, and turned to Kibito.
She pointed two fingers of her right hand at his leg, and shot a beam of soft,
white energy, penetrating the flesh. As soon as it touched, Shin gasped. He saw
the two holes fill up with flesh, right before his eyes! She licked a smear of
stunned.

and not my sister Fiora you attacked. She would’ve
killed you on the spot. And you!” she turned to Shin. “Thanks for that blast. I
feel much better now!”

heartless laugh.

see it, you,” she stared at Kibito. “
and you,” she turned to Shin. “are Chien
Cour Pourpra!” A hurt look
appeared in Shin’s deep black eyes. She showed no remorse at all as she took a
delicate sniff of the wind. “Ah, good! He’s that way!”
She leapt into the air and flew off. Kibito turned to
speak with his master, but found him gone. He found Shin some minutes later,
sitting on the bridge over the creek, with his legs hanging over the side,
staring down into the water. Kibito sat down by his
master, with a questioning look.

the gall.” Kibito tilted his head back, quizzically.

There was silence. “Well,” he prodded. He had to know. “What did she call you?”
Shin clenched his fists, trying not to cry.
