ベラミス - her epic journey of her soul

Chapter 42 - Belamis' first boyfriend ?

Medora was happy that Belamis could be with her in human form, but while Belamis had to toll Starry Princess, she had to change to her giantess form.

Belamis landed Starry Princess on a planet, as as her chains detached from the craft, she turned back to human form.

Then Medora came out. "Belamis....there's a problem..."

"What ?"

"There's no clothes for you..."

"Ah..."

Belamis looked around. The planet has light, vegetation, fresh air, water.... a very habitable place.

Then Belamis spotted a tree. She walked there, smelled the bark and the leaves.

"I can make use of this..."

Belamis got some of the bark off, and started to massage them, and then she bit the leaves, squeezing out the juice, and applied on the big pieces of bark, making them soft.

Medora watched, as Belamis slowly made the bark to pieces of cloth, and then Belamis used the fibres from the leaves as strings and stitched them together.

Belamis made a small skirt and tied it round her waist, covering her private parts.

"You don't need a top?" Medora asked.

Belamis shook her head, "That's no point doing it.... every time I change I will rip off my clothes.... besides I am comfortable this way .."

Then suddenly several men came out, holding weapons like guns and swords surrounded Belamis and Medora.

"Who are you ?" Shouted them.

Belamis hold Medora beside her, and replied, "We come in peace... we meant you no harm...."

"We are to help restore Galaxy Energy round this region..." Medora added.

"We want nothing of your help..." Said one of the men.

"Is that you ? Belamis ?" A voice called.

Belamis turned, and uttered, "What the ???"

A tall man, with tanned skin emerged. He was smiling.

"Nick ?" Belamis said.

"Hahahaha... still the same tough kid back in Gariusu..." Nick replied.

"Guys.... Belamis is a friend. Show her respect, she's a  decorated officer, a proud and brave warrior... and now... Major Admiral Belamis of Galaxy Union...." Nick said.

The men stepped back.

Belamis hold Medora's hand and walked right up to Nick.

"Put this on..." Nick gently said, as he took his shirt off, and gently placed on Belamis' shoulders.

"Thanks...."

Nick looked at Belamis, and signed..."..you really took on many hard battles..." He was saying this after he saw the multiple scars on Belamis body.

"Come with me to our little town...." Nick smiled.

Belamis and Medora followed.

"This planet was our new home after our's blew up, just after your planet blew up..." Nick said.

Belamis remembered her home.

"We came here.... and joined the people here, building our new home....and defending it when Galaxy Energy was again weakening around..." Nick continued.

"We came to restore Galaxy Enegy..." Medora said.

"You ?" Nick asked.

"She is the one with Galaxy Energy and can help... I am her protector..." Belamis said.

"We don't need your help..." Replied Nick firmly.

"Same Nick ... you haven't change a bit." Belamis smiled.

Nick put his arms round Belamis and suddenly kissed her cheeks.

Then Belamis slapped him.

"Ouch....." Cried Nick. "You still don't want to be kissed by me the most handsome officer in our star system ?????"

"Duh...." Replied Belamis.

"We will go and take a rest... see you later..." Replied Belamis as she took Medora's hand and walked away.

"Hahahahah..." Nick laughed... and he then muttered, feeling his painful face, "Her slap is much stronger!!!"

Belamis and Medora walked away.

"Who's that guy ?" Medora asked.

"Nick... fellow cadet when I was in millary school... he's from another planet... we met at a joint training camp...."

Medora smiled with a sly look, "Did he dated you ?"

"Date ?" Belamis replied.

"That look in his eyes...." Medora said, she noticed Nick cared about Belamis a lot, especially when she noticed Nick sad look when he saw Belamis' scars.

Belamis signed, and began telling Medora about those days.

"That...was when I was 17... he's 19 years old..."

Belamis was admitted to military school... just afer Medona's death. She was determined to be the best soldier to protect her planet and her loved ones.

Belamis military school was an all-men institute, she was the only female cadet at the time, and everybody knew she's the daughter of General Conan.

"She got in by her father's connection.." As gossips spread.

Belamis wowed them by her combating, shooting, sword fighting skills.

"Hey... you cannot do the men's gymastics..." One guy teased her.

Belamis without a word, did the still rings, parallel bars, high bars and a number of routines without blinking her eyes.

Belamis then challenged the guys, "Press ups..."

"Hahahaha..." The guys bursted into laughter.

"With these..." Belamis lugged some sandbags over and she placed them on the ground.

There were at least 30 of them.

Belamis went down, and said, "Put them on my back....or you can have a few of you sitting on me..."

The guys eyebrows rose.

"I'll take on that girl!!!" One big guy ran up and began doing press-ups.

"One...two..three.." The guys were counting the number of sandbags on each of Belamis and the other man's back.
Each sandbag weighs 30 pounds.

"Gasp....damn......" The other man fell face flat on the ground as the fourth sandbag was lugged on his back as he did his press-ups. Belamis had five on her back and she's still doing press-ups.

"Impressive!!!" A tall tanned man came out....

He started doing press-ups, and said, "Put 7 sandbags on my back..."

"Put 2 more on my back..." Belamis said.

"Ha!!" The man laughed. He's Nick.

The men around cheered Nick, "Beat that girl!!!"

But as more sandbags were placed on them, they fell silent. They never saw anything like that.

Both Nick and Belamis had 15 sandbags on their back, no sandbags left.

"Let's compete on our endurance!" Nick said.

"100, 101, 102..." The men counted the number of press-ups the two did.

After 30 minutes, "510, 511...." Only one man was counting, the other watched in awe.

"Not giving up....." Gasped Nick. Belamis replied, "Not in a million years...."

The two did 700 press-up each. Both were extremely exhausted.

"It's a tie...." Nick said, as he stood up. Belamis stood up. Both breathed heavily.

The other cadets were silenced by Belamis display of skills and strength.

"There's ONE sport you definitely cannot compete with man..." Nick chuckled.

"Spell it out..." Belamis replied calmly.

"The traditional Talusan wrestling..." Nick's planet was Talusan.

He continued, "In traditional attire...."

The whole group of cadets laughed loudly.

"What do you mean ?" Belamis asked. She had no idea yet.

"You'd find out. If you take the challenge, meet me at 10am tomorrow morning..." Said Nick.

In the morning Nick was waiting. The news about a man and a woman doing a Talusan wrestling spreaded in the camp and almost all cadets were showed up.

The cadets were giggling.

Nick was in the traditional Talusan wrestling attire - just a cloth wrapped round his waste and covering his genitals.

"If she shows up, I will buy you all drinks tonight..." Chuckled Nick.

"Then you have to use up your whole month's salary..." It's Belamis voice.

The men turned, and there mixed sound of gasps, wows... Belamis was also in traditional Talusan wrestling attire - just a cloth wrapped round  her waste covering her private parts, and she wore nothing on the top.

Jaws dropped.

"You are serious???" Nick said.

"I am a warrior,  like you, man or woman...." Replied Belamis.

Nick saw before him a slender but muscular woman, with defined biceps, deltroids, abs and pectorals.

The other guys were either trying hard not to look at Belamis' breasts, and quite a number couldn't take their eyes off her breasts.

"What if Nick grabbed those..." Some whispered.

The umpire was embaraased, and said, "OK... ready..FIGHT!!!"

The traditional Talusan wrestling was a mixture of combat and wrestling. The only rule was not to hit below the belly button, but to push the other out the ring, a 10 feet diameter circle.

The crowd cheered and as Belamis and Nick fought each other.

Punches threw, each throwing other on the ground, rolling on the dirt and both got dirt all over.

Gradually Belamis' won support, some of the guys were cheering for her, "Tough girl!! Good for you!!! Beat Nick this asshole!!!"

Then Nick grabbed Belamis, and his hands were on Belamis breasts.

"Hey!!! Don't take advantage of her!" Laughed the crowd.

Belamis threw Nick on the ground.

The fight lasted an hour. There's no break in between. The winner would be the one who pushed the other out of the ring, at test of strength, endurance and skills.

Nick threw Belamis and Belamis nearly fell out the ring, but she landed inside.

"Awww....."

Then Belamis was locked by Nick and he twisted her left arm to the back.

"Don't even try to break my lock!!! You would dislocate your shoulder joint!!" Warned Nick.

"I am not going to give up..!!!" Belamis yelled. She pulled with her locked left arm.

"Gee....she's really strong..." Thought Nick.

"Now... I can dislocate you joint.." Nick pulled back.

Belamis let out a loud cry, and pulled. Nick heard the sound of her joint dislocating, but then Belamis could move and she used her right arm and picked up Nick, and tossed him out.

There's a thud sound.

Nick was outside the ring.

"Belamis won..." The umpire declared.

Belamis walked towards Nick, and hold out her right hand.

Nick hold her hand and let her help him up.

Belamis had sweat and dirt all over her, and she breathed heavily. Nick looked at the warrior before him, and he thought he saw a goddess.

"How's your shoulder ?" Nick asked gently.

Belamis smiled, "How strong a punch do you have ?" She pointed at her left shoulder.

"You are serious ?" Nick asked.

"Yes...punch it hard..." Smiled Belamis.

Nick punched Belamis' left shoulder, jamming her dislocated shoulder joint back in place.
Belamis took it without blinking her eyes.

"Tough girl..." Nick laughed.

Then both of them collapsed in exhaustion.

In the evening, Nick washed himself. Belamis was in her own shower - this was the place she did not share with the guys.

There's the sound of knocking of the doors at Belamis' quarters.

Belamis wrapped her in a towel, and walked out, and opened the door. It's Nick.

"I come to see you if you are OK..."

"Thanks..."

"I have some traditional medication that can help your shoulder..." Said Nick.

"Well...."

"You are really something..." Nick said, and suddenly he kissed Belamis cheek.

Belamis slapped Nick's face.

"Oooooooouuuuuuuuuuch..." Nick exclaimed.

"Get out of my quarters." Said Belamis.

"OK..OK.. sorry for that... I did it because I liked you..." Said Nick.

"Sheeesh.... if you did that slap on me this morning I would have lost..." Chuckled Nick.

"Get out of my sight!" Yelled Belamis.

"OK...OK..." Laughed Nick as he ran away, leaving the medication on the floor.

Belamis picked up the can of medication - it was some ointment. She rubbed them on her left shoulder.

"It feels good..." Belamis said to herself, as she thought of Nick.

Since then the two often do things together. They admired the other's strength and skills a lot.

Medora listened, and replied, "That's a date..."

"I don't know .... or I wasn't sure... but I was with Nick a lot of the times when were were cadet officers.. that went on for 6 months..."

Belamis and Nick would often spent time by themselves in a field duing sunset after the whole day's training. Belamis playing her little lute (like a guitar), and Nick listening or falling asleep.

Sometimes they even engaged in  traditional Talusan wrestling, both in traditional attire, and they would throw each other on the ground.

"I am really pissed of when you defeated me...by surprising me with your dislocation.." Nick said.

"That is not a tactic... its my way of fighting..." Belamis replied, as she dodged Nick's moves.

"How's it ?" Nick asked.

"When I fight...I don't care if I live or die...." Belamis replied.

"You don't care ?"

"Yes..."

"But people who loved you cares...." Nick said.

Belamis stopped. She stood, with sweat all over her.

"Let's rest..." Belamis replied.

Belamis went to the nearby river and dived into the water and swam, cooling herself off and washing the dirt off her body.

Nick stood by the river and smiled.

The last day the joint training would end finally came.

"Hey... I know a fun place..." Nick said to Belamis.

"Where is it ?"

The two was out at a high mountain, and on top of a tall rock, overlooking the camp and the sea.

"It's breathtaking..." Remarked Belamis.

"I want to show you this place before you go home...." Replied Nick.

"Yes...tomorrow I will go back to Gariusu ...." Said Belamis.

"Do you think we will see each other again?" Asked Nick.

"I don't know..." Belamis said. The situation in Gariusu was not good. Belamis would join the battle there, and unbeknownist to her then, she would be operatedon to become a cyborg.

They gazed at each other. Belamis hold Nick's hand.

Nick put his arms round Belamis.

The next day Belamis as on her jet, with her fellow cadets, flew back to Gariusu.

Nick was on the ground, saluting to Belamis' jet.

Nick signed, and said to himself, "Tough girl.... but beautiful and kind.... I missed those blue eyes of her..."

Belamis looked and nodded at Nick.

"How time flies..and things changed so much..." Belamis said and Medora listened.

"If ...if your planet never blew up....... you could be with Nick ..." Medora said.

"It's hard to say..." They never met again, and the twist and turn of events got Belamis with Kugo.

Then there were loud sounds. Belamis went out with Medora, and Belamis took the shirt off, exposing her strong upper body.

Nick was out with the other guys.

"Belamis... don't fight ... we will deal with the monster by ourselves ...." Nick said.

"I am a warrior like you...and this time I have the mission to help planets around here..." Replied Belamis.

Nick looked at Belamis, semi-naked, with a strong body, and he gazed at the same beautiful face he loved.

"Belamis, I will not let you..."

Nick and the other guys stormed out to battle.

Belamis and Medora followed.

Attacking the small town was a gigantic locust like insect monster. It swirled its front claw, damaging houses.

The people ran in fear.

Nick and his fellow men pulled out their weapons and fought the monster. Nick being the leader, shot the monsters a number of times, and dodging the claws, narrowly escaped a  few times from deadly strikes.

"He is still that same tough soldier I met..." Thought Belamis.

Then Nick mounted his fighter jet, and began flying to the monster, shooting it with guns on the jet.

The locust shot out beams of energy, and Nick's jet narrowly escaped from being hit.

"Nick!!!" Belamis shouted.

"Belamis, we must help them!!!" Medora said.

Belamis nodded. Medora hold up her scepter, and Belamis transformed.

"Wow....." Nick saw Belamis transform.

Belamis roared, and charged the monster.

The locust like monster let out a squeak sound, and spitted out some venom at Belamis.

Belamis roared in pain as the venom was corrosive.

"Belamis, be careful!" Nick cried.

Belamis turned to him and nodded.

Belamis dodged the claws, the giant locust then spit out web and the web tied up Belamis. Belamis was trapped and the web was tough, Belamis struggled.

The locust sank one of its claws into Belamis' breast. Belamis growled.

"Belamis!" Nick flew his jet and attacked the locust, firing missles which blew up the web which entangled Belamis.

Belamis freed herself, and lifted the locust with her hands and tossed it away.

Belamis then charged -- as Belamis got near the tail end of the locust suddenly stick out a sharp sting, Belamis side was deeply impaled.

Belamis roared in pain, but she was not afraid, she broke the sting, and pinned down the monster.

Nick flew his jet and he saw that the locust raised its head, and it was turning towards Belamis. From its mouth came out a glow...

"No!!!" Nick knew the monster would spit out a strong blast of energy to hit Belamis.

He flew his jet to the monster, shooting it and crash his jet to it.

"Ni...ck..." Belamis uttered in her giantess voice, and she caught Nick in her hand.

Belamis roared in anger, and lifted her other hand. Her other hand glowed and Belamis made a power hand chop, cutting the monster into to.

The monster was destroyed.

Belamis hold Nick in her hands, and tears were rolling out of Belamis' eyes.

Nick gasped, and looked at Belamis, "....not just tough girl.. but also a big one...hahaha... I won't try to kiss you .. I cannot survive your big slap..."

Belamis returned to human form, carrying Nick in her arms.

"He is seriously wounded.." Medora said.

Belamis put Nick down, and Medora radiated Galaxy Energy to heal him.

Nick saw all that Galaxy Energy could do.

Medora went on restoring Galaxy Energy for the planet.

"Thanks...." Nick said, and he looked at Belamis' eyes.

"Your eyes..... they still so beautiful... and still so sad..." Nick remarked.

Belamis gently kissed Nick's cheek. Nick smiled, and gently patted Belamis face, "..that's for slapping me..."

Belamis laughed.

Nick recovered, and he came and bid farewell to Belamis and Medora.

"Do you have a girl friend ?" Belamis said.

"No... perhaps..never..." Nick smiled.

"Bye...." Belamis replied. She transformed into giantess, and lifted Starry Princess, and carried it on her back, and set out again with Medora.
