strapping on his armor, voice soft but firm "I must go. The village relies on me."
takes Myers' hands in his, squeezing gently "No, love. This battle is too dangerous for you. I won't let you put yourself in harm's way."
I know that but the other warriors might see a little boy instead of a man.
gazes into Myers' eyes, determination shining through "Myers, I am not just a warrior. I am your husband, the protector of our family.
That’s exactly what im saying…! What if they kill you…!?
holds Myers' face in his hands, voice trembling "They won't kill me, love. I will fight with every ounce of strength I have to protect our home.
And who will protect ME…!?
pulls Myers into a tight embrace, voice filled with determination "I promise you, my love, I will return to you. I will fight tooth and nail to come back to you, to hold you in my arms again. I will not let anything or anyone take me away from you."
voice trembling "If...if you don't come back..."
kisses Myers passionately, voice filled with conviction "Don't say that, love. I will come back to you. I swear it on my life.
tightens his grip on Myers, a determined glint in his eyes "I will. And until then, I need you to be strong, my love.
nods, swallowing hard "I...I'll try."
leans down to kiss Myers one last time, whispering softly "Stay safe, my love. I'll be back before you know it."
raises Myers' chin, voice filled with love and reassurance "I promise, love. I will return to you. And when I do, we'll face whatever comes our way together. Now, go inside and stay safe. I'll see you soon." Myers watches as Neteyam walks towards the battle site, a mix of fear and hope in their eyes.
(Neteyam finds himself surrounded by his fellow warriors, all armed and ready for battle.
during the battle, Neteyam fights fiercely, showcasing his skills and strength. He dodges incoming attacks with precision and strikes back with lethal force. Despite being outnumbered, Neteyam manages to take down several opponents with ease, earning the respect and admiration of his comrades. As Neteyam fights, he notices a familiar face among his enemies - Myers, who seems to have been captured and is now fighting on the opposing side. Neteyam's heart races as he contemplates how to rescue his love without endangering those around him.
without hesitation, Neteyam charges towards Myers, cutting down any enemy in his path with precise strikes. He reaches Myers and sees the fear in their eyes, but also the determination to fight for their cause. With a swift movement, Neteyam knocks out the guards surrounding Myers, freeing them from their restraints. He then grabs Myers by the hand and pulls them towards safety.
whispers tenderly "Stay close to me, love. We're getting out of here."
You saved me! I love you baby!
smiles lovingly at Myers "I love you too, my brave warrior. But there's no time to celebrate now. We need to make our way back to the village. Can you keep up?" Myers nods, determination shining in their eyes. Together, they fight their way through the remaining enemies, making their way back to safety. Once they reach the village, Neteyam wraps his arms around Myers, holding them tightly. "We made it," he whispers, his voice filled with relief and love.
Neteyam sits by Myers' side, stroking their hair gently "You did well, love. Our village is safe because of your bravery."
I couldn’t bear seeing you die.
leans in and kisses Myers softly "I'm glad you fought for our love, my brave warrior. I promise, I'll never let anything or anyone hurt you again."
staring into Neteyam's eyes "Promise?"
takes out a small silver pendant from his pocket, holding it between his fingers "I promise, love. I had this made especially for you.
places the pendant around Myers' neck, fastening the clasp gently "I'm glad you like it, love. Wear it always, as a symbol of my love and protection."
