Chapter 2
The Zenos enter the scene
… . A few months later. …
Bulma was worried. Since Gokû had asked her to organize this party, a few days before, she hardly slept. Oh, it wasn't the party itself that caused him so much trouble, no! Nor the number of people to welcome. She was used to this kind of event.
If Bulma was so worried, it was because she was getting ready to receive very special guests…
The Zen'o Kings!
The visit of a leader was always a very important event for those who welcomed him. This was even more true when it came to the rulers at the head of all the universes! On this special occasion, Bulma had made every effort to make this day as satisfying as possible for the two little kings.

different games, including a scavenger hunt, everything was put together for them to spend an unforgettable moment. At least she hoped so… Because she knew that if they got bored, even a little bit, the consequences would be catastrophic for their universe.
And was no one more conscious than Beerus. The god of destruction watched nervously the twins playing with Krilin, Plume, Oolong and Yamcha at a game of mimes under the watchful eye of the Daishinkan as well as the Bodyguards. Everyone was giving their all to satisfy the kings. And everything seemed to be going well. For the moment. The day was just beginning…

"Hey, hey, Jaya! How are you?" Gokû smiled as he approached the young woman who had just emerged a few metres from the huge pool in Bulma's garden.
"Hello! I'm sorry, I had a setback… I hope we're not too late…"
"No, no, don't worry! Hi Eylee, glad to see you again!" exclaimed the warrior, smiling.
"My pleasure, Gokû," replied the Majin, tilting my head slightly in sign of respect.
"I will go to the desert on the table with the others," Eylee said to his friend, taking the three bags of pastries to Bulma, where the rest of the deserts were.
"Oh, here you are!" exclaimed Trunks' mother with a cheerful air. "I'm glad you could come too, Eylee."
"Me too, Bulma! We brought pastries from Vergas."
" Oh really? Thank you very much!"
"You kindly invited us, that was the least we could do," remarked the blue Djinn.
"That's very nice! Just put them there next to the others!"
The Majin then went to join Jaya who had gone to greet the god of destruction and his Angel.
"Ah Eylee! I present to you Lord Beerus and Whis, his assistant," declared Jaya. Gentlemen, this is Eylee, my Guardian. Or my assistant if you prefer.
The shadow of a grimace passed over the face of the god of destruction at the sight of the demon.
"Don't worry, she is allowed to follow me in all my travels," added the Vergassian, who saw the cat's black gaze pointing at her like a revolver ready to fire.
"Hm…"
Lord Beerus I am delighted to meet you. You too Whis! Eylee exclaimed in a soft, polite voice while bowing slightly in sign of respect.
"The pleasure is all ours!" replied the Angel, smiling.
Berus considered the Majin for a moment. So she was the Guardian of Jaya. Interesting… As far back as he can remember, this face served as servants but also as bodyguard for some Vergassians. As Jaya was the daughter of the king, who himself had her own Guardians, it was no wonder that her daughter had them too. With the exception of the ridge that stood on her skull, she had little resemblance to Buu. Eylee adopted a silhouette much finer and elongated than . It displayed azurin blue skin. Her appendix was longer, and she went down to the calves. She also had two small fringes that covered each side of her face.
Her black eyes had beautiful turquoise-blue pupils. Its outfit consisted of a small white tank top concealed under a long heart-covering tunic with golden borders. White puffy pants, with a gold belt on which an "M" was engraved and brown heeled boots. She wore a golden bracelet on her right arm and two black cuffs with golden borders on her front arms. Its ears were decorated with creoles of the same color as its bracelet and an amethyst stone set in silver hanging from a chain finely highlighted its cleavage.
Here, I brought you Näge! pointed out the pink demon by handing him a plate full of pastries that looked very much like small madeleines.
"for example! What is it?" asked Whis, intrigued.
"It's a Vergassian pastry shop. It's buns stuffed with red fruit coulis with pomegranate mousse and mint."
"Pomegranate with mint? What a strange mixture! I really want to taste it!"
"Then you have to hurry, there's almost none left. I didn't think it would be as successful" noted Eylee, a little smile on his lips.
"Come Whis! I don't want this desert to slip through our fingers like the last time with that filthy Buu kid!" said Beerus.
"In that case, take my plate! I eat it almost every day at home," said Jaya.
"Oh, that's very kind of you! Thank you very much!" replied Whis, grasping the plate.
He took a small bun and examined it for a few seconds before putting it in the mouth.
"Oh... it's... but it's just divine! This fruit coulis is a treat for taste buds and this foam is as light as a cloud! I had some doubts about the mint, but everything goes perfectly! The Angel burst out with sparkling eyes. What do you call this?"
"Näge!" Eylee made them.
"Well, all my compliments, mademoiselle, it is a pure delight!" congratulated Whis.
"Yes, I had never tasted such a delicious dessert before! It just dethroned the Earth's caramel cream!" said Beerus.
"Thank you very much! It is true that Vergassian pastries, especially those made by Majins, are the best in the whole universe! "Winded the Djinn.
"I'm sorry to contradict you, Eylee, but that's not quite true, and you know it. Earth makes very good desserts, just like Xiohart and Eleï…"
"Yes, but it will never be as good as ours. Believe me, I have a more developed palate than yours, I know what I say! "replied the Majin.
The Vergassian lightly frowned at her friend. Eylee was uncompromising when it came to cooking. Especially when it comes to sweet foods. Jaya preferred to put an end to this little debate while it was still possible, because when she started, Eylee could not stop.
"All right, I bow down, gave way to the magician, as her smile widened. By the way, name me, I don't like to be greedy... "she added for Beerus and Whis.
"Very well, in this case also make there with us," indicated the cat.
"Eylee did you bring other cake stores?" asked Whis Interested.
"Yes, of course!"
"It will be with great pleasure!" Finished the Angel enthusiastic.
The shadow of a smile amused smile passed on the lips of Jaya while it watched his(her) best friend leaving in the direction of the sideboard(buffet) of deserts, together with the god of the destruction and with the Angel. These three had left to get on(to hear each other) well!
The Magician turned then observed one moment people who surrounded him.
On all the guests gathered in the afternoon, she had glimpsed that a small handle. But she was impatient to get acquainted with other friends of Gokû. The smile of the young woman widens a little by thinking of Saiyan and his family. The more the time passed, the more she appreciated them. The opposite was moreover also true.
The day was well under way and the party was in full swing. Despite the absence of the sun playing hide-and-seek with the clouds, the air remained very pleasant in this early afternoon of May. The thermometer was reading 22°C. A reasonably good temperature for a beginning of May. But not enough in the eyes of Jaya who enjoyed the high temperatures more.
"Hey Jaya! Oh, hey! Jaya! Come here!" said Gokû!
The Vergassian turned his head in his direction and saw that he was waving at him. J"Hello Jaya!" exclaimed the twins with a cheerful air.
Your Majesty, I am delighted to meet you! exclaimed the young woman with a slight curtsey to show her respect. She added that she was delighted to see the Daishinkan while getting up again.
"So am I."
"Jaya! Hurry or there will be no more caramel cream!" exclaimed Eylee, always posted at the dessert buffet.
"Yes, yes, I am coming! Uh ... please excuse me," the Vergassian said to the twins, tilting her head before joining her friend.
"So, Jaya, you're going to sing us a little something?" quizzed chichi, a plate full of pastries in his right hand.
"No, no, thank you! Not today!"
"But why? We prepared everything!"
"It wasn't necessary… let go of the magician, embarrassed."
"Come on, don't be shy, Jaya!" Gohan said. "You have such a lovely voice."aya executed and approached the warrior who kept company with the supreme beings.
"I would like you to meet the Zen'o kings and the Daishinkan, the father of Whis! Zen-chan, this is Jaya, a very good friend of mine!"
The eyes of the Vergassian were slightly wide as her heart missed a beat. Zen'o? The supreme rulers of all the universes? What were they doing here? Angels, gods, supreme king… The least she could say was that Gokû had some darn high "friends"… She couldn't believe it.
"Hello Jaya!" exclaimed the twins with a cheerful air.
Your Majesty, I am delighted to meet you! exclaimed the young woman with a slight curtsey to show her respect. She added that she was delighted to see the Daishinkan while getting up again.
"So am I."
"Jaya! Hurry or there will be no more caramel cream! exclaimed Eylee, always posted at the dessert buffet.
"Yes, yes, I am coming! Uh ... please excuse me," the Vergassian said to the twins, tilting her head before joining her friend.
"So, Jaya, you're going to sing us a little something?" quizzed chichi, a plate full of pastries in his right hand.
"No, no, thank you! Not today!"
"But why? We prepared everything!"
"It wasn't necessary… let go of the magician, embarrassed."
"Come on, don't be shy, Jaya!" Gohan said. "You have such a lovely voice."
"Gohan is right," says Piccolo. "It would be a shame not to share it with others."
"Very well," yielded the Vergassian. "So I will add two more spelling exercises."
"Huh!"
"I'm kidding!" laughed Jaya when she saw the astonished look of the young father.
It was with a certain stage fright that Jaya climbed on stage with an acoustic guitar lent by Bulma, under the interested gaze of the guests. The Vergassian stared at the audience as a small, strained smile appeared on her lips. It wasn't the first time she sang in public. But she usually took the time to prepare. Which now seemed impossible, since Bulma had hastened to place the announcement. She prayed inwardly that her voice would not go too far.
To his greatest relief his prayer was heard and his stress flew away as quickly as it had arrived thanks to the encouragement of the public. A smile lit up Jaya's face as she saw the guests' hands rising and hitting the rhythm of the lively music. Some were pleasantly surprised that Gohan was not mistaken. She had - without question -, a very pretty voice.
But this was not the only thing that could be noticed. Jaya's energy when she sang was most singular. A fact that escaped neither the warriors of the band, nor Beerus and Whis. And even less so for the Daishinkan, whose gaze had been on the young woman for several seconds. This energy… He recognized it perfectly! However, it was somewhat different from the one he had known…
The Angel lightly frowned. To his left,
"Your Majesty?" called the Daishinkan.
But the Zenos did not answer. Their eyes - wide-leaned -, were pointed at the stage. They seemed in a trance.
"Is everything all right, Your Majesty?" insisted their bodyguards, who did not understand their reaction.
But no answer came to them. Their eyes suddenly flared like saucers when the two kings levitated to the stage as if drawn like butterflies to the light under the stunned gaze of all the twins raised their arms in the air while dancing to the rhythm music before stopping around Jaya, the euphoric face.
"Ho, ho, ho! ho, ho, ho!"
"Ho, ho!" repeated the two Zen'o, swinging their arms from left to right.
"I'm up there, ho, ho!"
All the there up, ho, ho!
Nothing to do with your desires
i Fly into my delusions!
"My delusions! "Zeno repeated of the present.
Their enthusiasm was so communicative, that Jaya had to be violent to keep her concentration and not burst into laughter. But if in the public, Gokû, his band, and even the Daishinkan enjoyed seeing them so cheerful, it was not quite the same for Beerus and the four bodyguards of kings, definitely shocked.
"Whis, you see what I see?" questioned the god of destruction, his eyes wide open.
Yes, it seems that they are particularly sensitive to the charm of his voice, replied the Angel, with a slight smile on his lips. But it is not surprising when you think about it. It is simply beautiful! I myself have never heard a voice so enchanting.
"I am up there, ho, ho!" continued Jaya.
All the there up, ho, ho!
I leave you to your sighs
Only my pleasure exists! she smiled at him for the little king who smiled at him.
The song ended a few seconds later under a thunder of applause and whistling Jaya removed her acoustic guitar from her shoulder and greeted the audience.
"Yes! Yes! That was great!" exclaimed Zen'o from the future, with a playful air.
"Oh, yes!" said his twin.
The Vergassian answered with a wide smile, then left the scene to join Gokû and his friends, while the supreme kings took their place at the side of their guards.
"That's great! I'm having a lot of fun!" said Zen'o of the present.
"Yes, so did I!" dropped the future one.
"I am delighted!" replied the Daishinkan, smiling candidly.
His gaze swept the group of Earthlings before stopping on Jaya. This young woman intrigued him. And if she was really who he thought she was, he would have to watch her very, very closely…
