"All of you leave." Merlin ordered.

"See y-"

"Except you Y/n, you stay."

Your eyes shifted to Arthur.

"Catch you later Arthur!"

"Goodbye Y/n!"

After they were gone you turned to Merlin.

"I see you and Arthur get along nicely."

"Yeah, he's a nice guy. Now, what is it you wanted me to stay for?"

"Have you been having any strange recently? Dreams that include the Commandments? Dreams that hint at your past?"

How does she know?

You rubbed the back of your neck.

"Well, yes I have. But that shouldn't matter to you, my past is no one's business except my own."

"What exactly happened in those dreams?"

"My most recent one which was during our battle with Galand was strange. I was playing chess with Galand. I must've played at least a hundred games with him before-"

"Most recent one? Tell me about the ones before. Specifically, ones that happened before the demon race was released."

"I've had any other dreams relating to my past. Though I've had other dreams that were even more strange."

"Tell me about them."

"In all of the dreams, I was there with Zeldris. He always said it wasn't a dream and he was real-"

"Have I told you that I've been saving extra magic for dire situations?"

"No, but I kinda assumed that. It like you to do tha-"

"Total Erasure."

Your mind went blank for a few seconds until you saw your whole life play out. Memories, memories you've forgotten, memories you loved, memories you hated, and most importantly memories from three thousand years ago.

None of them had anything notably wrong with them. All except the last two, the last memories burned themselves into your mind as they played.

The contents of them were blurry, as it had been thousands of years since they happened but they still revealed how much of a monster you actually were.

In the first memory everything was burning except two things. Two people. One being Zeldris who was bleeding out, the other being you who was also incredibly injured.

Holding a knife to Zeldris's neck you were radiating dark magic. Something was off about you though. Your normally H/c hair was all black, with the exception of one crimson strand in the front, and your E/c eyes were the same crimson color.

"Y/n I don't suggest this, you're not in your right mind."

"Shut the hell up!"

"Please-"

You used your knife to slit his throat. Dark red liquid oozed from the cut in his neck. He passed out almost immediately after.

You crouched beside his half-dead body.

"Pathetic."

He grabbed your arm, smearing blood on your shirt.

"Snap the hell out of it."


The second memory was way less gruesome.

Alone with Meliodas in the Fairy Kings Forest, this memory was longer than the last.

"Meliodas I just don't understand why you would betray the demon race!?" You were sobbing throughout your whole interaction with him.

"I had to, it's the only way this holy war will end. Y/n please understand."

"What about your brothers? Estarossa admired you and you just betrayed him!"

He stepped towards you and reached for your arm.

"Y/n-"

You backed away from him.

"I don't know if trust you anymore."

"Y/n I didn't betray you I only betrayed the demon race, please remember that."

"What if you betray me next?! Meliodas you're stronger than me by a lot, if you were to turn your back on me I wouldn't stand a chance!"

"I wouldn't do that. Y/n you don't understand I could never betray you."

"You chose to end a goddamn holy war over your own family. I don't think you betraying me is too farfetched."

"You know damn well the holy war was already tearing my family apart. I can't undo what I've done, the demon race will never take me back. So please just understand what I did had reason behind it."

Your flashbacks ended and you stared at Merlin.

"Who are you?"

"I'm Merlin one of your comrades. You've lost your memory."

For the second time that day King burst in through the door. "Diane is gone!"

"Diane? Who is th-"

"Alright, then we'll go to find her right away." Merlin interrupted.

Merlin took you to the tavern. She didn't tell anyone that she wiped your memory.

You gazed out the window. Completely unaware of your surrounding.

Well, that was until two hands gripped your breasts.

"AHH, WHAT THE HELL DO YOU THINK YOU'RE DOING YOU LITTLE PUNK!"

"Calm down it's just me."

"I hate to burst your bubble but I have no idea who "you" are."

"Come on Y/n this is no time to mess around! Diane's missing!" Groaned a boy floating on a green pillow. He appeared to be very nervous, warm sweat dripped down his face.

"She's not fooling around King, I had to wipe her memory due to some- Well complications."

"WHAT DIANE'S MISSING AND YOU JUST WIPED THE MEMORY OF THE ONE PERSON WHO CAN OPEN PORTALS FOR US!"

"I see." He gazed up into your eyes. "Before you lost your memory I was your captain, and your lover of sorts."

Lover?

"Y'know what lovers do? They get naughty, so how about you and me?" He winked at you.

"Captain this is not the time." Merlin interrupted. "I can sense something outside."

Meliodas took that as the queue to run outside.

"Captain wait up!" King chased after him.
