He’d been working on it for months, a year perhaps, and finally he had been given the green light by the General Queen to release it for members. Finally, he could share what he’d been working on, what would help them all, and he was doing his best to keep the wide smile off his fade as it threatened to overcome his calm and even features. Finally, he could make a difference, even if it was a small one, and he was happy about it – proud of himself.
Standing in a fairly large room behind a desk he summoned his communications crystal and sent out a message for all officers to hear and respond to.
“Attention all officers, this is General Benitoite. Any interested in an energy providing drink please come see me in negaspace. I will be waiting with a supply to pass out. Approved by our General Queen Laurelite these drinks are safe and ready for use by any interested.”
And he cut the communication as he let the crystal vanish to where all things, weapons, uniforms and more seemed to go.
He wasn’t here to answer questions; he wasn’t going to tell members how he’d made them or anything else. He was simply here to pass a vial or two out to each member who arrived. One was what he was figuring on but if not many came than two could be given to some members. If asked he would, of course, explain the reason behind so few vials being that it took a lot of times and ingredients to produce only a few vials of the concoction. He wasn’t going to tell them it used youma parts, he doubted many would want them knowing that. He also wasn’t planning to warm them about the strong taste, let them find that out on their own – they should figure it wouldn’t taste all that great.
It was a dark greenish olive color and not a water thin liquid it also wasn’t very thick, somewhere in between though it leaned toward the thin side thankfully. The taste was…strange and strong, at least to him anyway. He just had to wonder how many, and who, would show up for this offer of his. Who would believe him and would simply be curious to try it out, to see if he spoke the truth.
Once they were handed out he packed up the now empty crate and decided to head home. He had told them to use them only in an emergency, as they took a lot of time to make and he was limited severely on how many he could make at a time. But they also didn’t have the addictive properties that starseeds or energy orbs did, though they didn’t do the minor healing a starseed or energy orb did either. Hopefully they all took what he said seriously and put them to good use, rather than just using them for little things. Hopefully he could also get more made, he had everything needed at home to work on another batch; which was what his plans for the night were.
