After (Y/N) woke up from what seemed to be a neverending slumber, the young girl hopped up from the neat mattress that she rested upon. She crawled out of bed and walked over to the window, looking out of it in confusion. Her (H/L) (H/C) hair was stuck to the sides of her face, ruffled, yet clean. Her clothing was changed from her rags to a much more respectable outfit (Luckily, it wasn't Meliodas who picked it out).
Her outfit was a long, baby blue nightgown which suited the young woman's tall and slender body. Due to being 6'5" in height, the dress reached just above her knees, which (Y/N) found convenient. Easy to travel in, and was simple. Elegant. Comfortable. Easy to whoop ass in.
She had no idea how she had gotten here - maybe Helbram picked her up? She did hear voices, and one sounded quite familiar. Due to her short attention span and lack of attention to detail, she brushed off the feeling and let out a soft 'meow'.
Cerberus meowed back and jumped onto her back, licking her face with excitement. Her smile radiated across the room, letting out a series of barks and cheerful noises. She picked up the abnormally large big cat and gave him a kiss on the forehead. The atmosphere felt warm and inviting, which contrasted the unfamiliar surroundings and confusing situation.
After a while of peace and happiness, (Y/N) finally decided to get serious and walked towards the bedroom door. She carefully attempted to pull the handle, but unfortunately, barely had any idea how doors worked. The best solution was to kick it down in her primitive mind. However, considering this was more of an espionage-esque mission, she decided to just have Cerberus cut it down instead.
After the swift process of the door being sliced to ribbons, (Y/N) crawled on all fours and remained close to the ground as she inspected her unfamiliar surroundings. Yet another problem arose, as a small group of about 8 people stared up at her from the bottom floor of the hut. She stared at them with curiosity, hopping down into Meliodas's hands. He stumbled back and lost balance, almost collapsing to the floor. The blonde demon laughed slightly at the incident; his chuckles clearing the tense air of the room.
"Seems like she's full of energy, cap'n. That little nap did her some good."
Ban grinned, his canines piquing your short attention span. She couldn't help but hop down and look at everyone. Especially the smaller boy, Harelquin. Fortunately, he'd been too focused gawking at Diane to notice her constantly lingering gaze.
Moments later, Cerberus hopped down as well, landing next to the fairy in the room. The big cat meowed loudly and pawed at him, soon after jumping onto his shoulder. Cerberus, being the ninja he was, balanced on the small space, which caused King some (a lot of ) shoulder pain.
King squeaked as the big cat lovingly licked his face, letting out purrs and mewls as he did so. The cheetah then looked to his adoptive parent with a coy smile. She glared back and stuck out her tongue affectionately.
'Thesebitches wanna like be me. Oh, you're bitches, by the way.'
The big cat thought.
After (Y/N)'s mind had registered the new faces, she managed to remember one in specific. Even though she couldn't connect a name to the man, and assumed it was just some silly, useless thought. The idea still stuck in the back of her head like glue to a paper. She felt that his name was on the tip of her tongue. His name was dancing around in her thoughts somewhere, but she couldn't pinpoint it. Maybe he was that b..-
"Oh! Looks like we've arrived!"
"Arri....arri...ve!!"
The once invasive thought was blacked out by the cherry voice of Meliodas and (Y/N) giggled happily. She loved hearing the little bells chime in her head whenever someone important to her spoke.
The blonde demon let out a dry laugh at the spliced English, looking into her dull, oddly glass-like eyes. They looked fake, if anything, with a luster that had long faded. He damn near felt chills as he attempted to fill (Y/N) in on the situation.
"Yeah, we're headed to the capital! I have to.. restock."
He lied through his teeth.
Of course she bought it. (Y/N) wouldn't dare believe her new favorite would lie! After all, it would only take a moment to restock. The sins collectively decided to let (Y/N) accompany them and see what she could do. King would be her assigned bodyguard — much to Gowther and Elizabeth's dismay. Elizabeth would accompany Diane and Meliodas, Gowther, Merlin, and Escanor were stuck together, and Ban landed with his ol' pal King. By extension, this meant accompanying the 'glass girl', (Y/N), as he addressed her. The groups smiled and began to head into the kingdom of Liones for a surprise pit-stop.
Sure would be a shame if something bad were to happen.
