"Who are they?" Lizzy asks.
"I'm Derieri," the woman says.
"And I'm Monspeet," says the man, "we're on Zeldris' side."
"Oh, good, so you're on team y/n?" Lizzy says.
"Team y/n?" Melascula asks.
"I like Team y/n," Pazuzu says.
"I think you mean Team Zeldris," Galand says.
Meliodas laughs humourlessly.
"Do you have something to say, traitor?"
Galand and Meliodas stand. You intervene.
"Whoa, whoa, whoa calm down guys. I don't think my apartment can handle any more physical fighting."
The demons glare at each other but sit down.
"Whatever we name the team, at least we can agree we're against Team Estarossa" Lizzy says.
"Team Demon King," Derieri replies.
"Team Zeldris versus Team Estarossa" Melascula says, "I like it."
"That sounds so juvenile," Galand retorts, "this is a serious matter."
"There are more important things we could be discussing," Zeldris says.
The discussion of team names dies instantly.
"I agree."
The voice that said those two words sends a chill up your spine. Zeldris and Meliodas draw their swords. Lizzy stands with a knife in each hand. Team Zeldris stares at Estarossa, but a light appears and two people teleport into the room. A floating woman snaps her fingers and Estarossa disappears. Meliodas grins.
"Merlin! Good to see you!"
"Likewise, Captain. When Ban told me about the situation, I didn't think much of it but it's not every day I get my old mentor standing in my library and telling me your team needs my help."
"So Hecate sent you?"
"Sent is a strong word. She asked me to check in on you. She sent Escanor."
The man behind her is Escanor? The hulking beast of a man who saved you the first time Estarossa tried to murder you?
"Looks like Team Zeldris just got a major powerup," Derieri says.
"We are not calling ourselves Team Zeldris," Lizzy replies.
"I say we put it to a vote," Galand says.
Merlin chuckles and looks over at Meliodas who nods.
Melascula speaks first, "I say we call ourselves Team Zeldris. Right Galand?"
"Agreed. Derieri?"
"Fine. If we have to call ourselves something I guess it should be Team Zeldris. Right, Monspeet?"
"Yes. Pazuzu?"
"Well, we could weigh pros and cons all day. I like Team y/n but Team Zeldris commands fear and respect. Sorry y/n."
"Don't be. I'm in favour of calling ourselves Team Zeldris. What do you think, Lizzy?"
"I still like Team y/n. Right Meliodas?"
"Nah, if I have to pick Team Zeldris is the better name. Right Escanor?"
"Oh, uh, I like Team y/n... Lady Merlin? What do you think?"
"There are better things we could be doing with our time, but if I need to cast a vote then I vote for Team Zeldris. What do you say, Zeldris?"
He pauses and looks over at you. He gives you a small smile.
"I wouldn't mind calling ourselves Team y/n."
