The Demon Triplets

Chapter 8

"Dang it!" I yelled as I smashed my hand against the car door. I turned towards Meliodas who had a deadly calm face on. "I guess he is thinking about Zeldris. I don't blame him. I ama also worried for him."

"Why isn't he going to help us?" I asked looking at Meliodas," He knows Zeldris is in danger and he is our triplet. So why isn't he helping?"

Meliodas calmly turned towards me and put on a thoughtful look," Maybe it's because he wants to keep us safe or maybe it's because he doesn't care. I can't say for sure Dami, all I know is that getting angry isn't going to help at all."

"If I may young sirs, how and when did you leave the mansion?" Alfred asked with a raised eyebrow.

"While we were looking around the mansion we noticed that you were working on a mountain of laundry so we both figured that would be a good time to leave, while you were distracted," Meliodas answered.

Alfred hummed then focused back on driving. "I'm guessing he is thinking that won't happen again." I turned towards Meliodas only to see him deep in thought.

"Alfred, why does father not kill? I know he lost his parents at a young age so why doesn't he take vengeance on the ones that hurt Gotham" Meliodas asked.

We got to the mansion when Alfred pulled the car to the stop and turned towards us," The reason why Bruce doesn't kill is simple. He views that by killing you are just like the villains. That is why he chose justice and not vengeance."

These were simple words for the triplets to hear but Meliodas couldn't help but scoff at the justice idea. The Demon King and Supreme Deity had killed him, his brother, Gelda, and Elizabeth because they fell in love. They specifically called that justice for their groups, so herring that justice instead of vengeance was just something he wanted to chuckle at. Damian looked at Meliodas with a concerned look. He knew better than anyone what Meliodas was thinking about and he knew what was going to come out of Meliodas' mouth next wasn't going to be pretty. Just as Damian was about to ask if he was ok, he heard the soft whisper that Meliodas let pass his lips...

"Elizabeth"

It was then and there that he knew something was going to happen but surprisingly Meliodas only looked up at Alfred and said something ice cold,'' There is no such thing as justice. There is only suffering."

Alfred looked shocked at his words but Meliods didn't pay attention since he opened the door and headed inside the mansion.

"Young sir, who is Elizabeth?" Alfred asked.

Damian looked him in the eyes and said," She is the most important person in Meliodas' life." Then Damian got out of the car and went after his brother. Leaving Alfred with his thoughts.

"Young sirs, what happened before all this happened?"
