Chapter: Crystals of Light - 13

Hi! <br />
I'm back! <br />
Sorry, Nirrti, that it took so long. But I'm currently in the stress of exams. But that will change again next week. I just hope that then I don't get too lazy to continue writing. <br />
But now to the next part of the story. <br />
<br />
Crystals of Light <br />
<br />
Expensive payment <br />
<br />
At Melika's request, he went straight to the cave to get the dragon balls. He picked them up and was about to make his way back ... <br />
"Hey, Jeice! What do you want with the dragon balls? Don't you also think that it would be better if they stayed here?" I would be happy to meet her. "-" Right now, when your friends want to use the balls against us, it would be better if they stayed here. "Baata looked at Jeice. Then he noticed something. During the brief eye contact he noticed that his look was strange and under a kind of hypnosis.After a few slaps, Jeice finally came to. "What happened? Why am I here?" Baata replied. “You were under hypnosis and you wanted to bring Mel the dragon balls.” Jeice shivered with anger. "Well, I'll go again.", The warrior replied. > Not because of poor girl. She has to have the powers of a Sharisad, otherwise she couldn't get me under her control so easily with a dance. Only the royal family have these skills on Rontra. Then Cassandra also has these abilities. She will regret that. << br />

Melikae had no idea of ​​her upcoming problems. She had just put the two little ones to bed. She felt bad. How could she betray someone she loved. Besides, she had lied to him too. The girl felt torn. No matter what she did, either betrayed her love or betrayed her friends. Helplessness and the feeling of having made a mistake crept into her.<br />
Then the door opened and Jeice came in. Melikae turned around and backed away a little. A fire blazed in his eyes that expressed an almost pure lust for murder. She backed away further. Fear - since she was with him, she had always been able to be open, even when she had made mistakes. And she wasn't afraid. Now that feeling that she had felt for Namek was there. Melikae was trembling all over. Her friend registered it very well, but kept walking towards her. Now the girl could no longer back away. Her back was against the wall. Shortly afterwards Jeice was standing in front of her. He put his hands on the wall at shoulder height of the girl so that she could no longer leave. "Why did you betray me? Not to mention that you lied to me."> That coldness in his voice. After so long, it's back. Just like on Namek. How could I forget who he really is. <Finally she answered with a little delay."I could ... It was ... I didn't want that ..." - "What didn't you want?" His look turned sad. "I'm so sorry about that now, but I have no other choice." Melikae turned even paler, if that was even possible. > Whether he's going to kill me now. At least he'll get rid of me then. Hopefully not. <<br />
He touched her cheek and neck briefly, then turned and took something out of the closet. When he turned back she saw the iron ring in his hand that Shirana and Chantra had invented. > Chantra told me about it. No, I do not think so. He doesn't really do that. That must not be. Please do not. the girl pleaded in her mind. "Vegeta got six of these rings from Shira.", Jeice got her out of her thoughts. “He owns one himself, just like each of the five of us.” Melikae just didn't want to believe what she saw. But by then she already had the piece around her neck. “Jeice, please don't.” The girl was completely desperate."Please forgive me. I will never do something like that again. I swear it to you. But please take this thing from me." - No. I wont. The breach of trust is too great for that. And now stop crying! "- I have forgiven you for your relationship with this woman too. Can you even remotely imagine what you did to me with it? Or how much you hurt me?" Jeice looked at the girl sadly. He sensed what she was going through at the moment and what she was feeling. > It must have been terrible for her when she saw this. But still. <"I can understand how you must have felt back then. But it doesn't work. The other alternative would be to kill you. The ring is set to the weakest level. If you are good and I'm sure that you are not yet repeat once, you will definitely get rid of him very quickly. "He went to the couch and sat down. "You are not a girl who grew up in poor circumstances, am I right?"<br />
Melikae knew there was no point in further discussion. Still, the ring was heavy. But then she answered his question, because a slight pain shot through her body. “Yes, you are right.” She sat down on an armchair and continued. "I am the Princess of Rontra and - as you probably know - I have the abilities of a Sharisad. I often had to dance in front of my father's guests. The rest of the story, however, was true." - "What about Cassandra? the abilities of a Sharisad in itself? "Melikae thought for a moment. "Yes, I think so. But I never intended to initiate you into these powers." - "I see.", Nodded the young man and left the room. <br />

The day was a catastrophe. Now she also had to go to the band rehearsal. > It can hardly get any worse. <, thought Melikae to herself. She had just lost the discussion and finally accepted her fate.What else could she do? So that the others didn't notice, she put on a scarf. But she lacked concentration during the rehearsal. It did not work. Too many thoughts flew through her head. <br />
"Why are you wearing a scarf? Otherwise you don't wear something like that either?" Melikae had hardly spoken a word so far. It rarely happened that the girl was so taciturn when she was with her friends. "I just felt like wearing the scarf," she replied. <br />
Meanwhile Marco had come from behind and had taken the scarf from her. "Damn it, how did you get into it?" asked Sam startled. "That's not the punishment for hypnotizing him?" - "Yes." - "Oh damn shit! I really didn't want that. I should never have forced you. But I was so sure it was the right thing to do is. "Everyone felt how Melikae suffered. The fact that she hardly spoke was unusual between them. Sam was the first to break that silence.“How did Jeice get this ring in the first place?” Mel knew almost nothing about the ring; only that he should suppress certain forces. "He has ..." <br />
Just as the girl was about to answer, she felt a sharp pain that went through her whole body. It was so intense that she fell to her knees with a cry of pain. "Mel, don't answer this question. Just stop trying to think about the answer to the question or to answer it.", Chantra said immediately when she saw her friend's reaction to Sam's question. After a while the pain subsided and she recovered. <br />
"What I kept from you at the time is the following: If someone who wears our invention says or makes something that he was forbidden, the ring causes pain to the wearer. You can be glad that he is on this level, otherwise you could you are dead now too. I have to say, I think it's unfair and mean that he didn't tell you that. "Now Chantra turned to Sam."You know the problems of the ring Sam. You could have really imagined that something like this would happen. First think about it before you ask questions that Mel can not answer!" <br />
After this conversation the friends broke up - only Sam and Chantra remained. <br />

Jeice shook her head. > Your friends don't tell her everything. But couldn't she have imagined something was happening? I have to explain something to her. How good that I installed these transmitters. << br />
Not only Jeice had placed transmitters in these rings, but also the other members of the Ginyu Force. These two transmitters were connected to the scouter of the person who installed them. In the case of Melikae, it was Jeice. With one transmitter he could have the position of the girl displayed, with the other transmitter he could eavesdrop on Melikae. <br />

After Sam and Chantra had finally managed to persuade Melikae to go out to eat with them, the girl came home late.She was tired and lay down. But she had the feeling that she could no longer breathe. Therefore, cough and sit back down. <br />
Now she was irritated by her fatigue. She raised her hand and tried to pull the ring off. But as if in response, a cruel pain shot through her body again; stronger than before. She collapsed and pulled her hand away, but the pain stayed and intensified. Melikae screamed in pain because she felt she couldn't take it any longer. <br />
In the next room Jeice got up and looked at the girl. For now, he pulled the device off her. She collapsed. He carefully placed her on the bed and sat down next to her. The device was misplaced. It was on the fourth step. This stage not only increased the pain, but also prolonged it. > She must have tried to pull it off. But why? <The girl groaned and came to. "Why did you try to take the ring off?" - "I'm tired. But when I lie down, I think I'm choking on this ring.“Jeice looked at her.” Don't try again. Next time, you could set a really fatal level. "" Jeice put the device back on after turning it on to level one. Then he got up and left the room without another word. <br />
Tears ran down Melikae's face. She felt so lonely. <br />

The phone rang. Vegeta answered. "Yes?" - "Vegeta, I need something that is similar to the iron rings, but not that heavy." - What do you need something like that for? And how should I explain this to Shira? "-" It's for Mel. She can't sleep with this heavy object and keeps me pretty busy. Not to mention her bad mood. "-" I think I remember Shira talking about something like that recently. I will contact you. "Vegeta hung up. <br />
Shira hasn't been in the workshop for a long time. She
