Chapter 12 - Chapter 12

Y/n POV

"Y/n, wake up. Wake up now" someone is saying but who and why? I tried to look around me but everything was dark. Was everything just a dream? "You need to wake up before it's to late" the same person was shouting.

I need to wake up, even if I don't know why I must wake up I need to do it. "Y/n if  you can hear me. Fight the darkness that are around you" another person said. "Ze-Zeldris?" I said while I slowly opened my eyes. "I'm not Zeldris" the person said. "What? Meliodas? But where is Zeldris? I could hear him" I said trying to sit up but I only got pushed back into the bed. "Don't sit up, you need to rest. You have been out for a long time" Meliodas said to me

How long could I have been gone for? "Wait? You are not trying to kill me? And why am I in the tavern and not in the demon realm?" I said panicking. "Why would I try to kill you, and why would you be in the demon realm?" Meliodas said and laugh at me. Was everything just a dream? "But Meliodas, didn't you cut my shoulder or upper back" I asked just trying to figure out when I blacked out. "I did but it's all healed now" he said and gave me a glass of water.

"Okay, now I am confused" I said trying not to laugh at myself. "I cut you, you blacked out and then Zeldris came trying to help you. But you were in a really bad shape. So we agreed not to fight and he let me take you here. And that's it" Meliodas said. "Okay, thank you for cleaning that" I said smiling at him. "But why did you call me Zeldris?" He asked and I almost froze still.

"How can I say this. He was the one who woke me up if I can say that" I said. And I just need to laugh at the face Meliodas had. It looks like there is a ghost behind me and he is trying not to be scared. "Something wrong, Meliodas?" I said beginning to get worried. "How could me be the one to wake you up. He wasn't in the room... Wait... did he talk to you in the darkness" Meliodas asked me.

What should I answer? I don't know how I heard him. "Sorry to say this but I don't know how I heard him" I said. "Do you remember what he said to you though? You don't need to remember it word by word but it would maybe help" Meliodas said and sat down beside me. "He said something about turning around. I don't know what he meant with it but when I turned around where I was, I woke up" I lied to Meliodas. He can't know about fighting the darkness around me.

"Are you sure. It doesn't sound like him. But I won't say anything. You have changed him a little bit, not in a bad way but in a good way" he said. "What do you mean with that I have changed Zeldris in a good way?" I asked slowly sitting up so Meliodas wouldn't just punch me back in the bed. "He was cold and didn't care about many people, even the people he cared about, he would hurt them. But you, he won't hurt you and he tried to take you with him. He have never done that" Meliodas said and smiled at me. It was like he said thank you with his smile.

I have changed Zeldris, that is scary. How have I done it. "Do you think I could talk to Zeldris? I just want him to know that I am okay" I said to Meliodas but he didn't agree with me. "No, you may have changed him but he is still the evil one. And if he gets you we may never get you back" he said. "But Meliodas, don't you even think that..." was all I could say before he said something different "no, you stay here" he said and got a little bit mad at me.

He can't just keep me here. When it gets dark I need to get out and run away from the sins, but one of them need to know. "But if I can't need Zeldris could I talk to Ban. Alone" I asked and Meliodas nodded and walked out the door. Shortly after he left the room Ban walked in and have me a hug, not to hard though. "The captain said you wanted to talk to me. So wats up?" He asked with his ale in his hand. Typical Ban. "Could you help me with something?" I asked hoping he would do it.

"Depends" He said and took a sip. "I want to run away from you guys, so Could you get Meliodas drunk, like. Really drunk tonight so he will sleep tight and not wake up if I try to walk out the door" I said hoping he would help me. "Sure. But why do you want to run away from us. Aren't we like your family now?" He said and sat down beside me. He is right, they are like my family, but still there is something about Zeldris that I need to figure out. "Yes, you are like a family to me but there is a person who I need to talk to and Meliodas won't let me go to see that one person" I said.

"And who is he or she" had asked. I need to tell him a lie for this. "It's one of my old friends in Liones. But Meliodas thinks he is a bad guy" I said. Wait did I just say guy?! "And who is this lucky guy you want to meet" Ban teases me. Oh, I have really done it now. "None of your business. But will you do it or not" I asked.

"Okay, but don't get in trouble" Ban said.
