Remember me (Meliodas x Reader x Zeldris)

Chapter 1: The awakening

3rd POV

Peace seemed to have returned to the land of Britannia; but out of anyone's notice, the most perilous awakening spell was being executed in the Zhuhur Valley.

"...Be gone! Oh foul curse!" said the former holy night, Hendrickson, as he concluded with the ritual.

A blinding light was casted upon the place, followed by a huge tremor. 

"It's been 3,000 long years, comrades!" said Dreyfus, or more accurately, the demon possessing him. 

Hendrickson, back to his original self, turned around to face the dreadful auras behind him. The Demon King's elite forces, the Ten Commandments, had been awakened.

As they chatted with Dreyfus, Hendrickson couldn't help but notice a voice that was remarkably similar to one he was familiarized with. He turned to face the shortest, but most prominent of them all: the Commander, Zeldris of Piety. He had a muscular build, black hair, and a significant resemblance to another person Hendrickson knew.

"So, does that mean that Meliodas is still hanging around?" asked Zeldris, with a smirk on his face.

"Indeed, he's got a new group called the Seven Deadly Sins" answered Dreyfus. At that, Zeldris' expression tensed up. 

"Are there women in the group?" asked Zeldris, with a peculiar interest and almost, hopeful tone?

"Yes, a giant named Diane, a mage named Merlin, and there's a princess called Elizabeth hanging around Meliodas all the time," said Dreyfus. After that answer, all the curiosity and interest seemed to have vanished from Zeldris' eyes. 

"What's the urgent interest in the gals, brother?" asked teasingly his older brother, Estarossa.

"None of your business," said Zeldris, with the ice-cold expression back again. "We should get some rest to recover force. If I remember correctly, Edinburgh Hill should be to the east. Let's go."

The demons spread their dark wings and flung up in the air. Zeldris looked at the land beneath him, and thought wistfully to himself. 'For 3,000 years, you were the only thing I could think about. Y/N, please be safe. Let me find you.'

With unspoken feelings kept inside him, he continued to lead the Ten Commandments.

Y/N's POV

I remember the fall. 

The light around me didn't allow me to see anything. All I could feel was the pressure of gravity pulling me downwards, in a rushed, uncontrollable fall. My head was blank, I couldn't reach for a single a single memory or reason that answered the millions of questions running through my head. Then, I felt the ground at my feet. 

With a couple of blinks my vision was adjusted. The first thing I did was look down at myself. I hadn't a scratch from the fall. My head felt like I mess, but my appearance didn't match so. 

'Y/N.' A voice whispered in my head. Was that my name? 

I felt my heartbeat beginning to rise. I looked at my surroundings. I was in what seemed to be the street of a village; houses and buildings surrounded the place. 

As I began to walk, I couldn't help but notice the strength that ran through my body. After the bizarre event, I didn't feel dizzy, or tired, or weak. But that didn't help at all to ease the commotion inside of me. 

I continued my walk forward in the deserted alley, until the side buildings seemed to reach an end. As I stepped out, everything seemed to get brighter, and I was filled with the warm sensation of the sun over my skin. I could see that I reached the outsides of the village, since all left to see were meadows. Though one thing stood out, and it was a small house made out of stone that stood a little far from the rest of village, as if it was meant to be isolated.
