my legs numb from sitting down for so long, i stand up just to be reminded of the fact ban hasnt come home for food in a few days. i wonder what that rascal is up to, my iron is really low so i decide to walk over to mrs healys house, her plants and flowers cover her garden, the smell so beautiful it is almost intoxicating. walking up to her big red front door my nostrils inhaling a very fammiliar scent, her famous meatloaf. i knock the door and after waiting for a moment, mrs healy opens the door with a big smile.i appologise for coming unanounced. she says its okay.
"do you by any chance have any leftover food?" i ask in my nicest tone possible. "yes, i do has ban not been feeding you?" "i dont know where he is"
after i get the food and start walking home, i see a familliar figure in the distance, it is him. hendrickson. i duck behind a garbage can and wait for him to turn the corner, i slowly peak round to see if he turned yet and just to my luck, hes heading straigh for me, i quickly run to a nearby bush and hide in it until he passes. a small blonde haired boy following behind him. there faces turn pale as they sense my magic, the blonde boy is heading in my direction and before i could react i hear hendrickson behind me.
"ah, y/n. since when have you been living in lioness" i dont reply. instead i run away them chasing slowly behind me, i will never forgive hendrickson, hes a stupid bastard who left me to die, same with ban. hes always away and never tells me where, im so worried even though he isnt my blood brother, i love him like one. hendrickson however, he is my biological father and with a severe alchohol addiciton, he left that behind to go be a holy night but he also left me behind. ban took over raising me when he found me walking around looking for food, but he is dead to me
i can hear hendrickson telling the blonde boy why hes chasin me but i dont care, i run down an allyway and wait them out. i find a chunck of cardboard and lay it down, flatten it out and then lay down on it. i use bans jumper that i borrowed to keep me warm. i eventually fall asleep.
ever so suddenly, i got awoken by someone screaming at the top of their lungs. i rush out of the ally and go see what this is all about. i was too stunned to move. a member of the demon race?! in lioness?! its a big red demon, i dont know how to react, im just frozen. it suddenly looks down at me, making eye contact and then a light started forming in its mouth. just as the light was about to hit me, someone grabs me by the waist, picks me up and rushes me back into the alleyway, this time however we go through one of the top windows, he sits me down and then speaks. "the names meliodas, ur father has been looking for you" i look up and its the blonde boy from this morning. how did he find me? he saved me i think? i just stare at him for a few more minutes until he finally says "not very talkative now are you?"
meliodas goes back out the window and comes back in approximately 45 seconds later, theres no noise outside im guessing he killed it. he grabs me again and then this time, he flies us to a small tarvern called 'the boar hat'
time skip a few months:
TW self harm
after i got back to my room in the boar hat, after a long day of helping the seven deadly sins. i reached into my backpack and pulled out my kit, it had broken bits of glass wrapped up in cloth, bandages and paracetemol in it. i grabbed the glass and slowly dragged it along my skin, it felt good so i did it again, this time pushing harder and then again and again until everything got blury, i made my way to the bathroom and sat in the tub, crying. doing this is the only way i can feel something, im numb. so numb its my escape from this. being numb.
i felt a presence as i looked up to see meliodas and merlin. just great, they know im a freak now i could have been more careful. they look panicked. i try to tell them im fine but nothing comes out. merlin put something in my mouth and shortly after, i blacked out.
the day the music in my head started.
