ANGST WITH HAPPY ENDING
Melizabeth

Summary: during their battle with their parents meliodas makes an agreement with his father. His and Elizabeth's memories of each other, and meliodas going back to become his fathers Slave, in exchange for Elizabeth's life.

Time line: 3000 years ago


THIRD PERSON POV

Surely this was the end.
Elizabeth was already unconscious, and meliodas was heavily injured as he held onto her, determined that if she was dying then he was too, even though nobody deserved to survive this war more than Elizabeth.

Before then stood his father along with her mother, a cruel fact that the only time they would with together was to kill their own children, but meliodas and Elizabeth had already shouted every cruel word they could think of, and yet their parents never wavered.
Meliodas would have liked to say that he would never beg, but when it came to her...to his goddess..he wound do anything to make sure she'd make it out of this.

"Please..." he begged, and for once they actually seemed to stop to listen, but that probably wasn't it, they probably just wanted to see how much he'd beg. This was nothing but a good show for the two of them.
"At least Elizabeth...she doesn't deserve this...she deserved to live!" He tried to convince them, but they didn't say anything. "Do whatever you want with me okay?! Kill me in the most heinous of ways! Torture me!...anything in return for her life...please!"
They still didn't move, and meliodas resorted to using hurtful words once more. "Don't you feel anything?!" He turned his attention to Elizabeth's mother.
"She's your daughter!"

"Not even begging for your own life are you?" His father finally spoke for the first time since this awful fight has begun.

"I told you...all I care about is her survival...do whatever you want with me, just let her live..."

The two gods sent each other a look, almost looking as if they were actually considered the idea.

"Well son...let's compromise"

Meliodas listened closely as he listen to his fathers idea of punishment.
He would return to his fathers side, hidden from any other demons but doing his fathers dirty work, going straight back to what Meliodas had hated so much, but what was worse was that he was told that they would erase Elizabeth from all memories, and meliodas from hers.
It was a painful thought, But he agreed.
This way at least, she could live out her life happily with someone else. Never crossing paths with him again.
Never giving her a chance to love him.

"I accept..."

Then meliodas whispered a last "I love you" to Elizabeth and kissed her forehead before everything turned dark, and every memory he had if his beloved was erased.

OoOoOoOoOoOoOoO

Meliodas woke up with a pounding headache so naturally he groaned and sat up, but suddenly he realized that he was being restrained by chains.
"What the-"

"Good to see you awake"

Meliodas looks up, already a stern look on his face.
"Zeldris! What am I doing in this filthy dungeon?!"

Surprisingly zeldris didn't cower as meliodas raised his voice like he usually did, instead zeldris was sending meliodas a stern look matching Meliodas's.
Zeldris had never dared look at him like that before, and meliodas couldn't help but be confused as to why. He searched his memories, wondered if he had given him a harsh lecture, but even he did his headache returned.
"I don't...remember..."
There was a huge black spot in Meliodas's memories. There was something he couldn't remember.
Something important.
"Zeldris-"
