Morning Rise

[Tallice Sanada]

The dawn of day broke, the sun started to come out and play to dance cross Tallice's bedroom like it does everyday. Tallice woke up and turned her head noticing that Tsuzuki was still asleep. She quietly got up and got dressed for the day. Walking downstairs, she remembered the night of sweet sensual passion that bonded the two together.

Tallice smiled in rememberance, she walked into the kitchen and began to make breakfast. The smell of the food lingered upstairs into the bedroom where Tsuzuki was laying asleep. As she finished cooking, she reached into the cabinet and grabbed two plates pulling them down. Looking down at a drawer, she pulled it out and grabbed two forks and two knives.

After shutting the drawer quietly, she made some coffee and poured some milk into a glass. He's going to enjoy this meal. she smiled, but then she remembered he had a battle to go off to. Oh no. she whispered as she dropped an empty plate on the floor and broke.

[Tsuzuki Sanada]

Tsuzuki arose from the smell coming from downstainrs he put ojn what he had worn last night and came down when he heard the plate break. He ran in to see if she was ok."Are you ok my love?"He asked in the doorway of the kitchen hoping she was ok.

[Tallice Sanada]

Tallice turned and looked Tsuzuki I'm sorry to have awaken you. she said bending down to pick up the broke plate and placing it in her apron. I'm fine, thank you. she stated after getting the last of the plate and tossed what was in her apron into the trash. Would you care for something to eat? Tallice asked Tsuzuki with a smile on her face as if everything was ok.

[Tsuzuki Sanada]

"That would be fantastic."He said and sat on the chair and wondered if anythign was wrong. Then again this was a big day it was a shame he had no reinforcments for this day.

[Tallice Sanada]

Tallice fixed Tsuzuki a large plate of food from eggs, bacon, fried potatoes, sausage, toast, sausage gravy biscuts and many more. Here you are love. she smiled and kissed him on the cheek sitting the plate down in front of him along with a napkin and silverware. She then poured a big glass of milk and a cup of coffee to help wake up a bit.

Tallice then turned and grabbed a plate for her, but only grabbing a couple of eggs, fried potatoes and toast with a cup of milk. How did you sleep? she asked walking over and putting her plate on the table a long with her cup. She then turned around to reach for the silverware and dropped it. Bending down she picked up the silverware and the napkin placing it on the counter opposite to the one she was near. She opened the drawer and picked up another set along with another napkin.

[Tsuzuki Sanada]

Tsuzuki looked at the feast he wouldn't eat all of it but enough to fill him up."I slept really well."He said as he tok a bite of the toast he loved breakfast he remember what the wilds were like he hated it compared to this."Tallice rmember don't let the guards touch you I've heard things...really bad things...let's leave it at that."He said and ate more toast and took a bite of bacon.

[Tallice Sanada]

Tallice took a seat beside Tsuzuki but had a confused look about her. Why on earth would I let any guards touch me? she asked, then stated i don't let anyone touch me otherwise they'd be in a world of hurt, except for you. she smiled diviously. Tallice almost felt sick to her stomach thinking about what the day would turn out like. Yes she had faith in Tsuzuki, but she didn't know if she would come home to the man she loves or to an empty house with a note on the door saying the love of her life was killed. That would be the last thing she'd want to see. Tsuzuki, promise me you'll come home alive please. I can't lose you, not now, not ever. Promise me. she asked as a tear ran down her face.

[Tsuzuki Sanada]

"You have my word...I'll win."He said and quickly ate his breakfast but only drank the milk he didn't like coffee. and looked at her and winked. He mouthed the words that he didn't like coffee one bit he went into the mudroom changed and put on his armor. He walked out his crimson and purple silk cape on him he smiled and looked at her. "Well how do I look?"

[Tallice Sanada]

Like a True Warrior King. Tallice chuckled with a smile behind it, but was serious about what she had said. She stood up and walked over to him and fixed his cape for him because it was a little off centered. I love you no matter what. she gave him a kiss.

[Tsuzuki Sanada]

"Thanks.... I love you too."He said and then with all thing completed he noticed her centering his cape but he knew it'd be easier for him to move around. Tallice and Tsuzuki were ture loves.

[Tallice Sanada]

Tallice frowned I wish you wouldn't go. she said with a bit of disappointment to her voice. But she knew he had to go, it was only respectful of him to do so. She looked at him and forced a smile I know you have to go, it is your duty. But remember, I am here in your heart. she placed her hand over his chest on his armor.

[Tsuzuki Sanada]

"I know...and remember I'll be in your heart too my love."He said and looked into her eyes and then his arms embraced her in a hug he needed this to know he'd stay alive.

[Tallice Sanada]

Tallice smiled as Tsuzuki held her in his arms I know, but you coming back alive is more important to me. she said looking up into his eyes. I just found you, I don't want to lose you either. adding to her previous comment.

[Tsuzuki Sanada]

"You won't lose me..I promice you that...Just watch for gurads and anyone who looks like they came from the castle. We can't trust many people in town anymore."He said and kissed his love goodbye for now. He did not want to let go but this was a great matter and needed his attention.

[Tallice Sanada]

Tallice kissed him back, then watched him leave out the door. I love you and good luck. she looked at him knowing they belong together.
