Survive

Leaving the helicopter

-Elizabeth's POV-

It was late and everyone had fallen asleep except the driver. This is my chance. My last chance to hug Meliodas. My last goodbye to him.

I looked at Hendrickson who had the keyes to my seatbelt. He wasn't too long away from me. Carefully, I stretched out my hand to his pants and took out the keyes from his pockets.

This was scary, I never done anything like this before.

Slowly, I unlocked my seat belt and went over to Meliodas. I couldn't help then to cry as I hugged him... then I felt something... I let go of Meliodas body immediately, the tears making my vision a bit blurry.

-Diane's POV-

I woke up in the middle of the night and saw that we had landed at a gas station. Escanor was asleep and zombies was banging on th3 helicopter doors.

"Guys?" I asked, scared. No one moved.

"GUYS!" I yelled and everyone woke up, seeing the zombies. Escanor immediately started the helicopter.

"Okay, hold on tight!" He said and the helicopter lifted about a meter, but then crashed back to the ground.

We all screamed as the zombies tried to get into the helicopter.

"The helicopter needs gas!" Escanor said as he was banging on it, trying to start it. It didn't work.

"Could we get the gas here?!" Ban asked. We all looked at the gas station. Then Gowther said "It is a minimum chance that it is any gas for the helicopter at this gas station."

"Well, we can't come out of here anyway!" King said.

"We could try! If someone get away the zombies, another person could get the gas." Zeldoris said, earing a  "No!" from King. Suddenly, one glass broke.

"Okay, we do it!" King said. We all nodded as Ban said "I will get them away."

We nodded as Ban went to the front where Escanor was. He opened the door and ran out yelling "Get me you bastards!"

One after one zombie slowly went away as me, Elaine, Zeldoris and Gowther ran out to get the gas.

"Is it this one?" I asked Gowther. He shook his head and then Elaine asked "This then?"

He shook his head again as he said "It doesn't seem like it is any for the helicopter."

The next second, we heard "RUN!" as Ban was running past us. The others, except Margaret, jumped out of the helicopter as we all ran away, the zombies chasing us.(Okay, I have had enough of Margaret now, so I killed her off. The zombies is eating her up or something, image whatever you want to happen to her.)

We ran until we all was out of breath and first then looked we behind us. It wasn't any zombies as long as the eye  could see.

I collapsed on the ground and the others joined me soon.

"Okay, what now?" Ban asked. It should be midnight about now.

"Meliodas usually had a good plan." I said. He was so smart. A real leader.

"Yeah." Ban said. Then Elaine asked "So, are you and Meliodas brothers?"

We all looked at Zeldoris who looked shocked. Did he know they was brothers?

He then asked "Why do you ask that?"

"Well, you two was so alike. Both was short, have green eyes and same skin tone." Elaine said. He just shook his head and said "No. We wasn't."

"Yes you were." I said. Ban, Gowther and King agreeing.

"Well, even if we was, how would you know it?!" Zeldoris asked. Gowther was the one who said "Hendrickson told us that when we was rescuing Meliodas."

"B-but then... he should have been the only family I had left, right?" He asked. We all nodded and Zeldoris face become empty.

"A-and he is d-dead now." Zeldoris said. We all looked down and the next second, it was small sniffs. We all looked at Zeldoris who was crying against Gelda's chest. She was just hugging him and tried to comfort him.

"It will be alright." I said. Everyone else nodded. We smiled and crawled closer to Zeldoris. Elaine was the next to say "We will make a beautiful funeral for him."

Then he whipped away his tears and turned to us.

"You knew him before me, what was he like?" Zeldoris asked. We all looked at each other a second as Ban started with "He was really smart."

"And strong." I said. Next was Escanor, saying "A bit crazy, but in a good way."

Gowther said "He was like my students.", making us all look at him weird. His students was smart, brave, strong, crazy and dangerous? Really, really dangerous?

"He was rude!" King said, making Elaine slap the back of his head.

"But a kind rude. He helped us out a lot." King continued. We all laughed a bit before I said "But no of us knew him before the zombie outbreak, so we have only known him a couple of weeks."

Zeldoris nodded before Elaine suggested "What about a bit sleep. We all need it to walk all the way to the lab. I suggest that one is up tonight and then we switch tomorrow."

We all nodded as Zeldoris said "I can take the first night."

"Okay." We all said in sync. Then we went to sleep.

-Elizabeth's POV-

A warm thumb whipped away my tears as I saw Meliodas looking at me with a smile. He slowly sat up, his chains being everything that you could hear. They was long, so he could move pretty much, but not much longer away from the table thing.

He slowly pulled me in and embraced me as I cried in his chest.

"I-I thought you died!" I whispered-yelled. He chuckled and whispered "I thought I would die."

I gave him a smile as I said "It's something I need to tell you."

He slowly loosened his grip on me so I could look him in the face.

"I haven't really said it to you before, but I-" I was cut off when I was pulled away from Meliodas.

"Let go off me! I was just talking to Meliodas!" I said and looked at Dreyfus. He just looked at me confused and asked "What are you saying girl?! Talking to him?!"

"Yes! Righ-" I cut myself off when I looked back at Meliodas. He was laying down exactly like before. Every inch on the right place.

New tears built in my eyes as I looked at his body. Nothing had changed.

Was I just... imaging him alive?
