[Old] Reincarnated: A Monster's Tale

Death's recycling-1

"Sorry for the inconvenience and the... painful death by a candy cane.  See, we are running out of monsters due to the increasing amount of adventurers.  You seemed like a good fit... sorry!  Honestly, it had to be done."  I give a shrug, I honestly didn't care, he needed help.  Wait... does that mean I am going to become one?  Cold sweat of realization makes me shiver.  

 "I am going to make you pick a monster or create a new species, but if you do, you need details on what you can do and the limits that can be be invisible, or visible.  The ones you can choose are Ogre, Fox monster, Slime, Skeleton, Zombie, etc.  We are running short of monsters, so please hurry."  His panicking expression shows as he gives me a tablet with the choices of monster.  They all looked non-humanoid, even the Ogre.  I go to the other option, and write down a monster that I thought of creating from my previous life for a game company.  I waste no time typing at the keys as I continue reciting the characteristics in my head.  I give him back the tablet a minute later.

"The monster has been decided, have a nice next life!"  The scenery changes in a moment to   black and white at the same time.  The weird feeling of the warping of my body feels just plain weird.  My body has a wrapping of warmth around it as the light fills my view.  I immediately see the fuzz on my body.  I chose to be a Bee monster.  My saliva is a thickly sweet honey with a bright pink tongue.  The fuzz on me covers my entire body like a fuzzily soft dog.  I try to get up, but to no avail.  I  can slightly move but my body is restricted.  I turn my body to look behind me to see a huge bee abdomen on me.  I forgot that I put that there.  I feel really heavy with it on me.  I look around and see flowers all around me.  He must have been considerate due to my type of monster's diet.  I pick the closest flower and drink away some of the nectar.   It tastes like nothing, it's like water to me.  I nibble on the petals, which is not a normal bee thing, but I did it so I would not confuse myself with how I should talk about nectar.  The flower tastes like eating a nice food since it was freshly picked.

"Buzz buzz." A little bee appears at my side, looking at the flower hungrily.  I give him the stem and pick another flower as he munches on the previous.  This goes on for several flowers and it seems like a new bee appears every five minutes.  When eleven bees appear, the next one comes out bigger than the others.  It looks like a body guard due to the very muscular build.

I send away a group of bees (about 15) to scout out the area.  I still have around 3 left.  I beckon them over to me.  I point to a giant leaf that fell from the hugest tree.  It easily dwarfs the other trees and it looks like it is the center of the forest.  They pick up the giant leaf with ease.  Good thing I'm the queen or else I would be scared.  The biggest one picks me up and lays me down gently on the over-sized leaf.  Just as I get comfortable, the group comes back.  They lead the trio to a comfortable hole inside the tree.  I am put down in the center of the back of the room.  

"Buzz buzz buzz."  I  tell them orders since I am the leader of a large group.  Since I used to research bees for game companies with strange animal physiology, I chose to have to speak to them instead of dancing, I know how bees work.  I send a few each for collecting, sorting, protecting, etc.  All of the bees look very similar but I could uniquely distinguish them by traits and small differences.  I decide not to give them names due to having a new one every five minutes.  I could store a lot of nectar within my body, it even adds cool traits from different flowers.  The different flowers taste like flavored water.  The petals taste like delicious home cooked meals ready from the stove.  

We made a flower pile to the left of me.  I am faced towards the front of the cave structure within this tree.  It barely covers the corner of my eye.  I have four eyes now that I think about it.  What is it with me and forgetting?
