Demon or Goddess?

Hidden Chapter #4

Elizabeth - 9
Meliodas - 8

Elizabeth's POV:

"Mel! Where are you?"

I was running around the adult library trying to find Meliodas. I finally found him in the fantasy section.

"Melio----"

"Shh!"

I waited a few minutes before he put a bookmark in and closed the book.

"Okay. Now what?"

"I just wanted to find you. What are you reading about?"

"Dragons"

"Dragons?"

"Yep! I think they're cool"

"You still believe in that kinda thing?"

"Huh?"

"We may live in a time where Demons and Goddesses are alive but that doesn't mean that Dragons are alive"

"But I---"

"I get it. They might be real but no one actually has any proof that they exist. So you should get over this stupid fantasy stage"

"But I think they could. Anyway, I found one before right?"

"That was a lizard"

"But it had wings"

"It was probably mutated"

"Do you have to crush my dreams Elizabeth?"

"Yes! If you grow up believing in this sort of thing then you'll be some weirdo who believes in that sort of stuff"

"But I really think that they're real! Maybe they're in a realm that nobody knows about!"

"Mel, we know every realm in existence"

"But what about if no one knew how to get there?"

"That's impossible!"

"Not necessarily"

"Mel I know what I'm talking about. There's no way Dragons exist"

He stood up, about to cry. He grabbed the books he was reading and stormed off. I may or may not have screwed up.

Meliodas' POV:

I went to my room and slammed the door. She expects me to be extremely nice to her, follow her rules, do what she wants and believe what she believes just because she's older than me!

I'm sick of it! The thing is, if I want to believe in them then I should be allowed. Just because Elizabeth doesn't believe in them shouldn't mean that I can't too! It's not fair!

I couldn't continue reading as I was too upset at Elizabeth so I put the books on my bed and went over to the balcony. I opened the door and went out. The afternoon sun was relaxing but then I noticed something shine from behind me.

I looked and saw the mirror lighting up. It's a mirror that shows you whatever you want to see but you must know what your looking for in order for it to work. I went over and looked at it. It normally doesn't do this on it's own. The best thing is that you can walk through it to get to where ever you want!

I was watching it and it showed me a picture of a forest. I was confused on why it would show me that until I saw something shining within it. Like silver scales.

I grinned and grabbed my bag and ran to the potion room to get some things like healing potions. I had a feeling that I needed them. I ran back to my room and after locking the door, I went through the mirror to the forest.
