       Your upbringing was not a happy one. You were made for one purpose and one purpose alone. To be the dog of Camelot, you were a slave to Arthur Pendragon. You had never known what a family was. You never had parents nor siblings. You raised yourself inside a room with the bare necessities—a bed, and a small closet that contained enough training uniforms for a week. Every day from 7 am- 6 pm you trained/studied various things like all the pressure points on humans, fairies, and giant's bodies. 

"{Y/n}" A Camelot knight called for me from outside my room. I groaned and got up, slowly walking to the door. "Yes?" I say as I open the door, looking at the knight with dead eyes. I saw him shiver at the sight of me. I rolled my eyes. 'Stupid.' "You've been summoned to meet with the king," The knight said from behind his helmet. I immediately straightened up. I was scared of King Arthur, he is not a forgiving man and has been the one responsible for all the punishments I have received for the past 16 years of my life.

"I understand," I say and walk past the holy knight. The walk was filled with anxious thoughts. Am I in trouble? Did he catch me leaving the castle grounds again? What if he no longer finds me useful? These thoughts polluted my mind. However, I soon reached the doors to his throne room. I waited to be let in by the guards outside, they both looked at each other and pushed open the huge doors. It's a straight and agonizingly long walk. I looked at Arthur and Merlin who stood beside him.

"I have an assignment for you [Y/n]," Arthur said with a smile on his face. I jumped hearing his voice. "Oh? What might it be?" I asked the fear slowly leaving my body, King Arthur had that effect on people. "I want you to kill someone." I nodded. This wasn't unusual since this is what I was made for. "He is from the prophecy and will destroy the world if we don't stop him." He continued. "That is why I am assigning you to this. You are to travel to the outskirts of Liones and then once you have finished the job, you will bring me back his head." I nodded slowly however I was confused, King Arthur doesn't normally make me bring back the head. In fact, the idea of doing that makes me anxious. Despite being the dog of Camelot, I hated the smell of blood. It's terrifying. 

"Oh [Y/n]," I look up to the King and he continues, "He is Varghese's grandson, so be wary when fighting him." I smiled "Don't worry my King," I said as I bowed to him, "I won't fail." He nods as I take my leave. 

As soon as I round the corner I fall to the ground while clutching my shirt. I try to control my breathing. 'I hate this kingdom..' I look up with eyes full of determination. "I'll escape someday.." I say in a low whisper.

-Inside the room of Bartra Liones-

          "Meliodas!" A woman with pure white hair calls to her lover. "Elizabeth! What happened?!" A short man.. child? with blonde hair and kind green eyes calls back. 

"It's father! He's had another vision, It's about someone new in the prophecy!" She shouts as her lover runs to her side. "What did you see Bartra?" The blonde asks the old man lying in bed. 

"When the Knight of Death sets out in search of Liones... The dog of the Four Calamities will set out to find him and when the Knight of Death sways the heart of the dog, Liones will have the missing piece" Bartra manages to say through his dry throat. The white-haired woman holds her father's hand in an attempt to comfort the old man. The blonde smiles, "I see... So soon we'll have everything we need."
