With Ban being the winner, that means he was going to fight Meliodas. From what I could remember they were kind of tied depending on what you consider a fight. They talk for a few seconds before Meliodas moves with his usual speed and punched Ban in the face. He was almost knocked out of the ring but Ban managed to stay put. Ban grabs Meli and he throws him down but Meli lands on his hands, using his weight he throws Ban over him. Ban recovers and throws Meliodas into the air, attacking him with a myriad of punches. Meliodas in one quick punch knocks Ban down the the ring, cracking the rock in the process. They attack each other again and again, until Ban uses Snatch to sap Meliodas's power. Ban punches Meliodas from behind and Meliodas punched him in the face in response. Well Diane, Elizabeth and King try to piece together what was happening I blurt out "He's using Snatch to weaken Meliodas so he can win".

"Ohh" Diane and Elizabeth sigh. The fight continues in Meliodas's favour even though Ban was using  Physical Hunt, thankfully only on Meliodas. I hate it when he uses it on me without permission. Ban gets Meliodas's down and Diane yells "Ban if you do anything more to the captain we're done, friendship over" as King tries to hold her back.

"Relax, as much faith as I have in Ban, Meliodas is going to win this fight" I say. Ban clearly hears me and looks at me with a confused look. I just shrug and Ban goes back to talking with Meliodas. Diane starts to talk about Meliodas using Full Counter for the punch Ban was about to deal but King reminded her that Full Counter only worked for magical attacks, they both puzzle well Ban thinks he going to almost kill Meliodas, I mean fair enough they don't know the things that I do but still if Ban this a punch could kill Meliodas he's got another thing coming. Maybe seven well aimed punches but even that would only get him down for a week or two and then we'd have a problem on our hands.

Ban deals the punch and Elizabeth start to scream. "Shut up or your going to break our cover" I say harsher then I meant to. 

"But Meliodas-"

"It's just fine, look" I say gesturing to the clearing debris.

"Elizabeth next time trust Y/n ok, she's always right" Meliodas says from the ring where he stands alone. Meliodas gestures to a giant pillar a few miles away that Ban got blasted into.

"Thanks for making my life harder" I yell to Meliodas.

"Sorry Y/n" Meliodas says rubbing the back of his neck.

"Well I gotta run see you all when I find Ban" I shout the the others before taking off. I see Hawk running a little bit behind me.

"Wait up Y/n" Hawk yells and I slow my run to a jog.

"What's up Hawk" I say jogging backward to remove some of the space between us.

"I finished with the ale so I'm coming to help you get Ban" Hawk explains.

"Alright sounds good to me" I say with a smile. We jog/run for a little while before arriving at the pillar where Ban was.

"well if it isn't my knight in shining armour" Ban says as he sees me, he sits up from the hole with a smirk on his face.

"Don't give me that look" I say returning his smirk.

"Will you two stop flirting, we have to get back down for the semi finals" Hawk yells.

"Well at least Ban isn't as gropey as Meliodas" I say giving Hawk a side eye as I go to help Ban.

"Well who says that" Ban says placing his hands on my sides and pulling me into a kiss.

"That not groping, that's sweet" I correct as the kiss breaks.

"Well I guess to bring it out of me" Ban says with a smile.

"Come on I want to see Diane's fight" I urge.

Ban moves a little before groaning "my whole body hurts".

"Poor baby, want me to kiss it better" I say pouting my lips.

"Yeah actually that would be nice" Ban says with a small smile. I kiss his jaw bone before reaching for his hand and pulling him into a standing position. He stumbles a little and I call Hawk over to help.

Ban ends up on top of Hawk as we walk down the hill, they bickered the whole way down but eventually we made it the the ring. I helped Ban stand as we walk over to King, Meliodas  and Elizabeth. Diane was obscured by a tornado made by the guy she was fighting. Diane used Heavy Metal and landed on the guy knocking him out. Diane being the nicest one of the group made sure he was ok and King intently got jealous which wasn't helped by Meliodas making a comment about love being in the air. Meliodas hoops up on the ring with was at this point very cracked. 

"Come on Captain, if this guys beats two of us we might have to consider replacing one of us" I yell which earns a smile from Meliodas.

"I see you found him" Meliodas shouts to me.

"Yep, now focus on winning for us" Ban shouts.

Meliodas and the man he's fighting talk for a little while before the man kicks Meliodas and reviles his clothing under his cloak, the crest of Danafal. I freeze, I recognized him. Kane Barizared. Ban has felt me freeze at this point and asked if I was ok, he knew I was the princess of Danafal but I hadn't talk much about it.

"I know him" was all I could manage. I'd only seen him without his armour a few things but he was my mentor when Meliodas was busy. He was one of the only holy knights who didn't doubt me because I was a princess. I thought he died in Danafal. Meliodas explains and Kane hugs him, crying. Kane forfeits and walks off the ring. 

I break away from Ban and run over to Kane.

"Sir Kane please wait" I shout, he turns around and sees me looking shocked.

"Princess". I jump on him and he stagers back before regaining his balance.

"I thought you died" I cry into his shoulder.

"I thought the same about you, how did you survive?" he asks.

"I went to find Lance, I fought the demon who killed everyone, if Meliodas hadn't lots control I would be dead too" I explain.

"The man you were fighting earlier" Kane says as he pulls me away. "You kissed him, does that mean you found someone?".

"Yeah, I found my knight in blood stained armour" I joke. That's what Liz called Meliodas. Kane chuckles and looks me in the eye.

"You love him Princess".

"Yes, I really do".

"Good, I guess Princess isn't really fitting anymore, more like queen".

"Queen of nothing, I'm just a ex-knight of Liones and a member of the Seven Deadly Sins".

"There's a small settlement of people who avoided being killed, they don't need you right now so your going to help Liones and then when your no longer needed your going to go back to your kingdom and be a great ruler" Kane says as he turns around and disappears.

"Sneaky old basterd" I say under my breath. I walk back to everyone still think about Danafal. If there really was still people then could I even lead them, would I really make a good queen, it's what I was born to do but I stopped training for it when I was so young I doubt anything I know would be useful. I'd have to have a conversation with Meliodas once his match with Diane was finished. Ban see's me and rushes over.

"Are you alright" Ban says looking me up and down with concern.

"I just had to talk to someone" I say with a smile. I could worry about Danafal once Liones was safe and right now that meant seeing wether Diane or Meliodas won this fight.

"Let's just watch the match with our friend shall we" I say with a smile. Ban seems to ease and we walk over to King, Hawk, and Elizabeth who had Diane handkerchief rapped around her like a dress.

"Gees King, the pig is almost as good as you" I say with a smirk.

"You alright?" King asks me with concerned eyes.

"What's with you two I'm fine, I'm always fine" I say as I nudge King in the rids playfully.

"Yeah sure" Ban sighs.
