" Hmmm... She seems to have calmed down after you did that.... what type of technique did you use?*tilts head* I didn't feel any type of energy being transferred..."
Sitting on a large green vine, the nature lady, Fauna, was looking curiously at the scene in front of her.
They are still inside one of her roots, and on the spot where the Owl was sleeping was now Kro, with Mumei's head on her lap, patting it slightly as the bird snored lightly and even drooled a bit with a goofy smile like her panic attack a minute before didn't happen at all.
"*Sigh* None, *smile* It's just something that makes her go back to chill mode, and it worked again it seems....*looks at Fauna*... Don't even think about it....."
Only moving her eyes to give a quick stare at the green one, before she got back to patting the one in her lap, Kro and Fauna were now just chilling around as the troublemaker slept loudly.
*shuffling*
Moving on her seat, Fauna spun around, laying her back on the vine, looking at the other two with her head upside down, her hair dropping down, revealing both her eyes entirely and that curious shine in them too.
"You two seem.... close....."- Not really used to how to even begin a conversation, she tries with what she has in mind.
Which gain a grunt from the blue one, she kept moving her hand gently feeling the wild brown hair in her hands, looking for any changes in the Owl's face.
" Not really wanting to brag..... *chuckles* But I know everything about her.... well not everything anymore it seems.... as I have no idea why Fu of all people showed up after her..... But I can say so....
I have been trying to take care of her ever since I found myself with a consciousness, and she started to grow on me since then..... until I had enough of only being a 'friend', and she also didn't even seem to notice it..... so I had to attack first.... Ehehe...."
Laughing a bit creepily, she remembers how she kissed the girl at that time in the Void, and how she would have kept going if it wasn't for the promise she made with the birb later.....
'Thinking about it.... I still need to plan the date..... super romantic won't cut for Muun.... it needs to be romantic but not over the top.... also something she likes....'
While brainstorming plans, Fauna got back to her little world, trying to decipher the words she heard.
"So.... is your relationship basically..... as mates?"
Moving her hands around and playing with another vine, she was also thinking about how strange it was seeing two mates from the same gender, and they also didn't seem like hermaphrodites or anything.
"Eh?"
Blushing hard as soon as she heard the word 'mate', Kro exploded in redness, trying her best to keep her stoic face, but failing horribly as the huge blush over her face didn't help one bit.
"*cough* I mean.... *cough*.... If you put it like that....Y-Yes... I prefer the term couple though.... sounds cuter....."- Getting over her words as she coughed on her other free hand, she tried her best to not stutter.
But it didn't escape the one teasing her, and a small smile grew on Fauna's lips as she continued moving her other vine around randomly playing around, and as fast as that smile came, it also flew away....
"Say....."- Speaking with a longing tone, she got once more Kro's attention, but this time hearing the other's voice tone, she took it a bit more seriously and curiously.
"What? Shoot it."
Continuing to pat Mumei's head, she locked eyes with the other one who was lying upside down, and before she asked her question she sat up and turned towards Kro with both legs crossed dangling down her vine.
"How is it?..... Always having someone? *sad smile* You said you have been with her ever since gaining consciousness right....*stares at Kro's eyes* How is it?"
With a sweet voice, she asks a sweet question, simple yet difficult.
It was so simple in fact that Kro didn't know how to answer, and would look down multiple times at the girl in her lap, trying to elaborate some sort of answer.
After a minute of repeating the same action she finally seemed to come to conclusion, and nodding to herself she locked eyes with Fauna once more.
" A blessing.
I can't seem to put it in other words besides that, the pure joy of thinking of what would make her happy, going all the way to find what to say so I can tease or joke around with her..... everything, and it doesn't help that she is so honest *chuckles*, seriously, she swears like a train too, never stopping.... but she's a sweary person.....
She is simple-minded.... well that is when she Isn't doing her plans, that at times are pretty surprisingly solid.....
But, that is it, a living blessing.... for me at least."
Getting something out, she is happy with how she described the snoring Owl, and not stopping her patting, she smiles humming slightly.
"A blessing....."- As for the one who asked, she was processing it information.
It had many things and different emotions being shown that she never had interaction with before, one after the other, every word carried so many emotions that she was a bit lost herself....
The silence got back to the room, but this time Kro's beautiful humming was breaking it slightly, she wasn't the best at starting chats, but if the other one started, she would continue.
As for now, she was happy with just chilling while patting Mumei.
They stood there, two by one side, and the planet's host by the other, sitting on top of her vine, with a solemn face, that little by little gained a brighter look, until after five minutes, she looked back at the pair in front of her, smiling.
" Would you mind telling me?.... You two seem to hold quite a lot of stories..... I would love to hear them..... As far as this place goes, it holds no fun memories like the ones you seem to carry...I think hearing yours would be a fun way to pass the time...If you don't mind that is."
Sitting by the edge of her vine, Fauna had a new glint in her eyes, she wanted to hear.... about what had they been doing to get to her planet in such a state.
What they did before, what's that form Kro has, the man that fled.... and many others they seemed to carry around.
Even the clothing they had was of her interest, as she had never seen use in covering herself before, and now with what she heard before from the bluehead, she got even more interested in these new concepts.
Seeing no evil in also remembering their journey, Kro smiled slightly.-" Sure, we have time, and I have nothing to do without energy either.... but I hope you like comedy because just remembering it already makes me want to chuckle a bit...."
"Comedy?"- Hearing another new term, Fauna leaned closer with her vine, interested in hearing more.
"Yeah.... Well, it all started when we spawned on a desert....."- Talking with great pride as she was there, Kro started explaining what happened with great excitement.
She was so happy while telling her stories that Fauna's eyes lighted up too, hearing how different things were for them, from how the Owl got caught up in an explosion when she was still weak and got sent to a place called 'hospital', to how she challenged a martial arts master with basically zero experience.
It was all so full of twists, random actions, and unexpected outcomes, that she couldn't help but be captivated, and every great event she would hear about raised even more her curiosity to really meet the one sleeping....
She was like a walking box of surprises, and Fauna caught herself trying to predict what would happen... just to hear how the bird would plant their faces inside the ground with ease...
" Then she threw up...*chuckles*, the fight with the white lizard considered the strongest in the universe was just a puddle of fun for her.... That was until he started to scale things up, with her following along...."
Sitting now closer to the two sitting by her vine leaning in closer interested with her eyes widened.
" So... Did something happen after? What Happened to the dwarf you talked about earlier?... He did kill someone related to Mumei and she let him go didn't she?"
Tilting her head with a finger by her cheek she looks at the long-legged woman who's still patting Muun's hair.... if she continues the Owl will probably have straight hair in the place of her wild one in no time.
" Hmm? Prince Vegetables huh? I honestly have no idea, nor care.*shrugs* He seemed to be around Namek too and I heard something about Piccolo beating him so I didn't bother listening much, but..... When we go back, that is when it'll determine if Muun will drag him back to earth by force or not...."
Sweat dropping as she remembered one of the reasons the bird left the spiked prince alive, Kro looked up at one who was even more curious now.
"Why though? Wouldn't be better to end him as he poses a possible danger?"- With her head still tilted, Fauna was really getting more and more questions in her head as she heard more.
Pouting her lips a bit forward thinking if she should tell the girl, Kro sighed and shook her head before looking directly at Fauna's eyes with a serious gaze.
" I can tell you, but from now on... You better promise not to tell no one about it Fauna... Not even those who consider themselves Gods.... Take it as thanks for helping us so far... but you need to promise me that, and if you do so... Wait.....I will still need Muun's permission..*sigh*"
In a matter of a second, the silly and funny air around the place changed to heavy one as Kro and Fauna stared at each other's eyes, neither of them even blinking.
The blue one knew this girl was important, and on top of that she helped them, but she was doubting if it was a good decision to tell her about what her Mumei knew...
"Hmmm.... What's up with the ugly face little Kro..."
Flinching, the atmosphere is immediately broken by a low rough voice coming from Kro's lap, and looking down she saw Mumei with one eye half open, looking at her while smiling slightly.
"MUUN!!! ARE YO-"
"Wait!....Tchtch....Don't move.... fuuuck.... I can't feel my body at all..."
This time was the Owl's turn to flinch as she clenched her teeth and grimaced with how Kro almost jumped up with happiness, and the instant she heard the one who is immobilized, Kro's eyes softened as she stopped moving, staying in place like a rock....
"Muun... How are you?... Does it hurt anywhere? Where? Do you remember the panicky attack earlier?.... *continues asking*"
Staring up with her only eyes open, Mumei just deadpanned her girl, but her eyes widened slightly as she felt another strange presence by their side.
Moving her eyes to her side she locked eyes with a naked woman whom she knew very well....
"Holly fucking mother of nature....."
Hearing Kro above her still asking questions she stared at Fauna, who hearing her smiled gently.
"Yeah!*waves hand* Hi Mumei! Kro told me a lot about you guys! My name is Fauna Gaia.*smiles gently*"
Seeing the girl waving to her, with the birb blushing slightly before looking up at the one who stopped her mumbling now staring dead into her dead in the eyes with a small dreadful aura around her.
"Hey... I ain't jumping any fences..... Her voice is just... Kalm...*grin*"- Being proud of her joke after finally waking up, Kro groaned and tapped the Owl's forehead a few times, earning her an annoyed stare.
"*sigh* Answer me Muun....."- Quitting her playing around, Kro's eyes got back their worried look as she stared at the bird who couldn't move.
Seeing that there was no exit from the questions, Mumei sighed while rolling her eyes and started talking about the past life that she just remembered
How she was created by her World's need for a protector, and how she fought for almost a millennia nonstop, just for the ones she fought so hard to protect to call her a monster.
All the sadness and tiredness she had grouped together as time passed, only being held together by her dream of one day being able to get help from those above and enter their ranks or even earning a favor from them so she could worry less for the monsters that seek to destroyed humanity....
Detailing some of her fights with an amused grin, proud of herself, Kro had to cut her off and tell her to go to the important part.... receiving a groan from the bird....
" You're no fun Kro.... But ye, I can tell the stories of how I slayed a gigantic alligator with a shovel when my dagger broke later... *ahem*, Soooo... *tsk*.. can't move around to present it better...*sigh*, around my seventh hundred birthday.... or was eight hundred and fifty one? Not sure... But around there Fu showed up... All ‐'Yo soy Dora! Let's be friends!'- And shit....
Now remembering how much that fucker sugarcoated me.... It makes me appreciate the feeling of punching his face with Fukari even more.... Ahhh, I wanna do it again..... This time I would smash his face like how they do while making mochi...."
Hearing the multiple ways the girl was coming up with how she would kick Fu's ass, Kro had a solemn look on her face.....
She was thinking about how much Mumei must be holding to herself now....
Her mother's death in front of her eyes, being alone fighting for some people that by the looks of it were unworthy of her even moving a finger for them... and to top it all... she was already preparing herself for probably the worse part while patting close to the girl's feathers, almost earning herself a moan.
"Auugh~ Hey! Taking advantage of an immobile person isn't fair! Let me continue mah story damnit!"
Trying her best to rant back with just her mouth, Muun got herself worked up with a blush as she tried to move her body to squish Kro's cheeks, but her body just stayed down on the other's lap....
"Tsk.... Lucky helicopter... Don't touch mah feathers like that....*blushes* they're sensitive... and I am talking here.... Anyway... It was also around when the time he showed up after a decade or so... that I feel like I for some motive started speaking to myself like a schizophrenic... strange... *blinks twice*....
After he showed up monsters attacks Increased per year like crazy, but I seemed to not make the connection back then.....
What was one monster every ten months turned into two, then three, it didn't stop, and after some more decades it got so crazy I had to fight one a day to save as many humans as I could.... that shit was hell...Why did I do that for those fuckers...*groan*.... Was too much of a sweet head at the time..... And the will of the world was still with me huh..-' Protect the humans'.....Bunch of bitches... ....fuc-OUCH!!! MAH NOSE!!"
"Stop swimming on the solely wrong side of things like that Muun.... you already know you shouldn't think that every one of them was bad...Whatever happened..... From what I heard so far, you did great already to try to save them, even more than anyone could have ever done..... You fought by yourself for centuries to keep up a civilization...*kind smile* Have some pride on that bird's head of yours...."
After finger flicking the bird's nose with her other free hand, Kro kept her eyes on hers, showing that she was fine now.
The look got through as she wanted, and forced the one laying down to look at her side, seeing Fauna who... was even closer now.... she was almost too close even.... And Mumei... could see everything..... and immediately shot her eyes back up to her girlfriend....
Who had a tick mark on her face as her eyes twitched with an annoyed smile along it, and without even saying one thing she raised both arms up, picking the ends of her tight black tank top...
*Shuffling.... Boing~*
"*blush* W-Well.... Pretty nice view I have to say... And ya don't need to stare at me like that, geez...."- Resisting the urge to just shove her chest by the girl's face to shut her up, Kro let her be as she still had more to tell them.
"Continue." - An eerie aura left her as she looked at the bird, who sweated a bit.
"Yes ma'am..... Uhhh.... where was I..... Ah! after I was around nine hundred yards old or so?.... Now that I think about it.... I am old...
Holy fuck.....But my mental age didn't seem to have acquired that much wisdom.... What the fuck..... *flinches* OKAY! Sorry, got a bit off-topic again there!"
Coughing a few times, this time both girls stared at her wanting to know what came next, pressuring the bird even more.
"*Ahem* Basically... What happened next was what got me where I am today.....*explains how Fu f-up everything once she got inside the sanctuary*"
The more she talked, the more Kro got surprised, how the concepts couldn't interact with Mumei, how she.... ate Baelz's arm.... which she was kinda concerned at how Mumei and this universe's rat would interact now knowing this new piece of information.....
Everything made sense once Muun told the last part, where she was sealed away to rest for who knows how long in that loop... Connecting with the eldest memory she fished from the bird..... which was one of her just watching things on her smartphone....
A full circle completed inside her head.
" And that's.... How the other part starts,*looks at Fauna* I can guess Kro told ya about the start already, and how crazy I was back then *snickering*... Ahh.... I loved when shit was easy...."
Closing her eye to rest a bit after talking so much, Kro watched her for a second before lowering her face.
Connecting her lips with Mumei, who instinctively reprocriated, kissing her although not really having any other body movement. Taking her advantage, Kro rested both hands by the girl's face and kissed her deeply, even using her tongue... and the instant she tried to get things even further... she stopped.... as a third face was even closer by, making both her and Muun stare at her for a second before separating while breathing heavily.....
"*Huff*.... *blush*.....Uhh.... Is there anything more you want to add in Muun?....." - Red like a tomato but not being able to hide her silly smile, she looked at the one she kissed, who had a huge smug on her face.
"Actually? Yeah, I already have what we will be doing from now on.... It seems my nice and cozy 'Kicking everyone's ass while chilling' will have to wait.....
There's Fu.... The fucking Ancient ones..... The Multiverse..... But for now, let's go one step at a time.... first let's kick Fu's ass.... the fucker has a good chunk of my system now..... And I am afraid of what he's going to do with that after witnessing how he basically ruined and broke the old me...."
Speaking with them about her objectives with a small tone change in her voice as her eyes flickered to black and red, to her { Owl Side } for a second, with a fit of incredible anger burning in them.
"Hmm...*Boops Muun's nose*, Okay, now turn it off, it isn't draining like Fukari, but we need you to recover your energy as long as we stay around here.... *sigh* Things are really getting on high stakes now huh.... Ancient ones..... and to think such Beings really exist out there...."
' There's also Fu..... I need to control myself... I almost transformed by accident earlier when Muun said what he did..... deep breaths Kro.....deep calming breaths.'
Closing her shining blue as she breathed deeply before opening them again and seeing Mumei looking at the one who was just watching them like it was the most entertaining thing in the world....
"But seriously... what's up with Fauna? Like what are the odds of us landing on the planet that she lives in?...."- Cocking a brow as she eyed the green one, focusing on her face.
Giggling and earning the full attention of the couple, Fauna smiled gently as she cupped both hands together by the side of her face.
" This isn't the planet I live in Mumei....
*stretches arms*
I am this Planet!."
Like lag in a game, both of them paused for a second as the green opened her arms like was showing the surroundings to them, taking in the words they just heard... even Kro didn't knows this bit...
While a monkey did backflips inside her head, the bird tried coming up with a valid explanation.-" Sooo.... You're basically the planet's conscience?... Gaia... Makes sense*nods*....*mumbles* just hoping she doesn't pull off a 360° on us, like how the GOW one did with the 'Boy' man....."
Sighing, Kro moved up, putting Muun's head gently by her wooden bed.....-" Fauna, help me out a bit, it might be good to make her take some sun as well as giving her a bath, she sweated a lot these past days."
Receiving a happy humming sound as confirmation, suddenly Mumei's bed started to move, and she was being carried outside the giant root they were in.
"Well.... ain't this a nice transporting method....."- Whistling a bit, the Owl couldn't do much, so she just choose to take in the environment.
Fauna was by the side of the bird with her hand raised as the wooden bed was moving with the wooden gently sliding through the dirt ground, both girls that were able to move walked out, and an almost blinding shone down the brown-haired one's eyes.
"Ahhh!!! I was flashed!!!!!! Ahhhh! They're at B!!!! *chuckles*... Feels good to be back....."- Laughing by herself, the other two also smiled slightly.
Exiting the place completely Fauna started to bring Muun to the lake close by that her roots created, it was where Kro would get their water usually.
On the way there the Nature girl answered some more questions the birb had as they walked through the forest.. with trees that were moving out of the way so they could pass without problems.
" Soooo.... No intelligent monkeys or something? Not even something who knows how to throw pointy stuff? That usually is peak evolution and the ones who will evolve going forward...."
Hearing how the world had nothing more than wild animals left her confused as Fauna seemed to be someone so gentle....
"Hmmmm... There were some very hairy ones once.... but by their own egoistic mistake, they all perished."- Receiving her response in a singing voice from the green lady who had her humor pretty high after making some friends....
"Oh.... Well, it seems they found their end quickly huh...and Kro..... PUT YOUR DAMN TOP BACK ON WOMAN!!!" - Shouting with a blush she eyed the other party who had her breast still showing.
" NO! IF YOU WANT TO LOOK AT THEM, FEEL FREE! FAUNA ISN'T WEARING ANYTHING! DON'T MAKE ME GO FULL NUDE!"
Proudly smirking while aiming a finger at the Owl in a threatening way, Kro was also super red with blush, smoke leaving her head slightly.
"Ugh...."- Accepting her defeat, Mumei just groaned.
By her other side was Kro with her strong body and light six-packs showing, each step she took her balloons would jump slightly with some extra bounciness, and there was nothing our bird could do in her current state, so she choose to just shut up and chill feeling the breeze that hit her face....
' What a way to go... Just woke up after remembering the shit that transpired back then..... just to have boobs everywhere I look.....*blank face* even when I look down....It's nice....
Kro is fine because she's Kro.....But looking at Fauna who don't seem to have an understanding of why we use clothing is.... weird.... Well she has a nice body type, yep, lacks some actual muscles but that's about it....
Kro tho...*clicks tongue* Naisu...'
Keeping her thinking process with her brute head, Mumei heard a humming coming from the one dragging her, a very smooth and ASMR-like voice, singing gently by her sensitive ears, making her even more comfortable.
With droopy eyes she felt the calm ambiance, finally being able to truly rest after what felt like centuries.... Even if these memories had come back and are before she even entered that loop... they were still Fusing themselves into our Owl's head.
Her brain worked full-on clock to make sure she wasn't overwhelmed, arranging it in her subconsciously so she didn't have headaches....
With these new memories, one would think that she may change how she acts. Well, she does in fact seems a little bit changed..... Her hair was slightly longer after all this traveling since she left earth....
That aside, she didn't deem nor felt like a change was necessary... She herself back then and now are very different-minded individuals, but she is indeed happy now that after all, she fought so long and hard to protect... she could finally have her own little life while doing her own things.
And sleeping with a silly smile on, she snored loudly.... Making Fauna stop her humming to try and hold her laughter and Kro to raise a hand by her mouth to do the same, almost crying at how loud it was...
"She.....*pfft*... Is sleeping like an angel...."- Trying her best to not burst laughing, the blue head floated up slightly and pushed some treads of hair away from the sleeping girl's face before she started munching on them.
"Yeah..... *smile* Kro, good to see you seem less tense now too."- Successfully stopping her laugh, Fauna walked to her new friend's side and noticed how she was so much more lively now.
*Shuffling*-" Yeah.... Even if what she just dropped are basically bombs.... * Genuine smile* At least she has woken up..... All those Ancient shitheads and the emo aside..... It's nice seeing her calmer and better now.... Muun has a strong heart, although she often overestimates how much it can hold... These past times she seems to be more open about them."
Putting her top back, and resting a hand above her heart, Kro kept her head up as she smiled slightly.
By her side, Fauna just giggled, she was learning so many new emotions, actions, and cultures.... That she was starting to consider if her new friends could stay there with her...
