Mornings always started out quite lively at the Tennyson residence nowadays.  Those at Sato High could only guess as to why these particular folks lived together, but nobody questioned it since they essentially acted like they  were one big family.

To start, Ben Tennyson would wake up to a green haired cute girl in her pajamas, pulling the covers off his face.

"Wake up Big Brother! You can't remain in bed all day!"

"F-five more minutes Deca.. F-five.. more.. minutes.."

Next,  one of the well known School Beauties and Geniuses of Sato High, plus a well known rebel when it came to dressing for school, would drag Ben outside in the wee hours for some much needed health upkeeping.

"Alrighty, We're gonna start jogging at a light pace, remember to keep that pace as much as you can. If you find yourself growing too exhausted slow down into a walk, don't stop moving or you'll start cooling down and you'll find it harder to get back up to a jog. Run Heel to Toe, don't just stomp forward like you're Humungousaur or something."

"Erice do we really have to do this so early?"

"Unless you want to be baking in the Afternoon sun. Come on, lets break in those running shoes already."

"Can't we have Shi-Jian do this with us? He looks totally unfit."

"I would if I could catch him, but he just loves misusing that stupid Time Belt of his."


After that, Ben would hit the showers . 


"Ben-Darling, I'm coming in."

"Curtain's closed tight Ophelia, go right ahead."

"I'm setting your towel next to the door okay? It's the green one, don't use Hanzo's by mistake again."

"Yeah, got it."


After that, Breakfast would begin, and the dining table would be surrounded quite a few individuals who you wouldn't expect to see together in the same house.

"Alright everyone." Erice Tsukuyomi said cheerily as she slid eggs and bacon onto a plate full of rice with a little bit of ketchup on the side. "Say hello to a Tsukuyomi Family Breakfast."

Hanzo Miyamoto, aka Hanzo the Killer, looked up from his newspaper, dressed in a relaxing looking kimono as Erice set his plate down on the low japanese style dining table.  "Heh, this is what you Mom always made ya?"

"If you don't like it you don't have to have it-." said Erice with a harrumph. 

"Eh-n-no that's not what I meant." said Hanzo. "Just surprised that you and me shared a taste for the simpler things. The eggs look great." 

"Well that's surprising." said Ophelia Anderson, smiling as her currently human green eyes turned to look at the samurai who now put down his paper and started eying his food eagerly. "Hanzo-san doesn't usually hand out compliments so easily."

"Like I said, I'm not about extravagance." said Hanzo. "Throw me into a Five Star Restaurant and it'll feel like everyone's laying it on real thick, then I can't enjoy my food.  Give me something simple in a nice familiar setting, and it's heaven." 

"Master! MASTER!" A blonde haired girl dressed in pink pajamas over a curvy beautiful figure drooled and shivered as she eyed her plate furiously. "C-Can I start now!? Pweeease!? Pweeeeeeease!?"

The girl would've appeared ordinary aside from her extraordinary beauty if it weren't for her demonic horns, one of which was broken, and her large reptilian tail which was now thumping rapidly on the floor due to hunger and impatience.
