I awoke with a start and looked around to get my bearings. I appeared to have fallen asleep curled in the chair by the fireplace in Wesley's cabin, though the fire had long since been reduced to embers. And wow, was it ever cold. I untangled myself and prepared to rise from the chair, working out all the muscle kinks that had formed after hours ( Read more... )

I awoke slowly with my senses immediately tuned to my surroundings. My skin felt cold from where the night had touched it. I was sitting in a chair near the fireplace. The clear white shards of the morning light cut through the windows and brightened the floor boards and filled the interior of this place with a soft illumination from off of the wood.

My muscles felt stiff and I sensed someone stirring. Listening closely I was able to inferr that it was Tara. Hearing her awaken and get up was a beautiful sound. I glanced around to see how the other sleepers were doing and I also thought about Illyria.

I awakened fully when the heat of the blazing fire that Tara had made reached my skin. I smiled and stretched my legs enjoying the joyful sensation my muscles made. I rested my hands on my legs and nodded to her. "Good Morning Tara."

Somehow it figured that Wesley would be the first one coherent. I knew it wouldn't be Willow...she's never been a morning person.

"Morning, Wesley. The s-stew will be warm in a few minutes if you'd like breakfast. I d-didn't know what else there was, food-wise. So what's the p-plan for all of us today?"

I reached out and served myself some of the soup. As I poured it into the bowl white steam slowly rose up into the air. "The plan? Well first we eat and then we head out before they find our current location" I replied confidently.

I expected a battle today but I didn't want them to be all tense about it.

I was half playing asleep, half actually sleeping. I sat up quickly at Wesley's comment.

"They? Who are they... And... Why do you smell nervous?"

I eye Wesley suspiciously.

I awoke to the sounds of Wesley and Tara. It had been a good night and I had slept well, it had been a long while since I had a good night's sleep.

I stretched my limbs and took in deep breaths. I could also hear the crackling of the fire; it was a most soothing sound. It made me smile. As I got up, I let the warmth of the fire warm my skin.

I got up and walked towards Wesley and Tara. "Good morning," I said in a firm voice.

The smell of the stew filled the air. I walked over to it and smiled at Tara and Wesley ad I passed them by. I served myself some soup and sat next to Wesley, and savored the deliciousness of the soup.

"They? Who are they... And... Why do you smell nervous?"

After taking the first taste, I looked up to find Oz, quite awake.
