Fallen Angel - (Seven Deadly Sins x Reader)

Chapter 15

You're still a Godfather

"Aw my clothes are a mess" Diane walked back down towards you, the tavern uniform, as well as being torn in several areas from her fight, but was also pulling to strings as she was growing a little bigger.

"Coming up next round! Semi-finals! Meliodaf vs Cain!"

You steadied yourself by holding onto the tip of one of Ban's fingers as you turned around to face Meliodas, "be careful" you smile at him.

He gives you a thumbs up and rolls up one of his sleeves, "leave it to me" he grins and walks up onto the beaten arena.

Diane jumps up and down in the air, "good luck Captain!"

King floated over to Ban and peered down at you as you re-wrapped the ribbon cloth around yourself, "looks like the effects are slowly disappearing, you and Diane are a few centimetres taller now".

Cain, an elderly, drunk-looking man with seemingly intelligent eyes, stands across from the sin of wrath. Meliodas gives a half smile.

"We're counting on you kiddo!" "Don't lose either gramps!" "Do your best you two!"

The townspeople cheered, Ban held his hand up towards his beady red eyes, "feeling alright?" he muttered sluggishly to you.

You looked down under the ribbon and watched your body begin to glow slightly as your healing was speeding up the growth, trying to revert you back to normal, "I don't know".

"You sure look a lot like him. I thought it might be so when I saw your face" the old man said, Meliodas turned his head, confused, "You are Meliodas' son aren't you?"

Your ears pricked up at those words, was he talking about Arthur? Surely not.

"No" Meliodas frowned, he tapped his index finger against his chest, "I'm Meliodas".

"WHAT!?!" Cain looked like he might faint, "DON'T TALK CRAZY! HOW COULD MELIODAS BE A KID LIKE YOU!?!"

"Shhhh!" Meliodas stepped close to the old man's face, noticing the townspeople beginning to lean closer to hear, "Something came up, I've had to hide my true identity. Look grandpa. I don't know who you are but... what it is matter if I'm the Meliodas you're talking about?"

The announcer tapped the metal helmet on his tiny head, jumping off the edge of the arena, "LET THE FIGHT BEGIN!"

In a second, Meliodas had to catch the old man's knee before it crashed into his face as Cain attacked. As he landed back, the old man flung off his cloak to reveal a familiar crest.

"Danafall" you and Meliodas both said.

"I knew I recognised him" you whisper, Ban pulls you closer to him in his hand, so you're pressed against his collarbone.

(16+ years ago)

Meliodas sits on a rock clutching a small bundle of blankets, the beautiful Danafall meadow's landscape falling around him. He looks down at the small face of the baby boy he carries on his lap. The sin of wrath is dressed in Danafall knight's clothing, a large noble crest painted onto the shirts fabric.

The baby boy coos and grabs Meliodas' finger in his tiny hand as the sin goes to poke his cheek. "Arthur, you're not going to eat my finger are you?" he chuckles.

The baby gurgled happily and tried to suck on Meliodas finger, but he withdrew it out of his reach with a light laugh. He looked up as he sees you walking towards him, carrying a basket and arm in arm with Cain, still an elderly man but a little bubblier.
