We managed to sneak past the knights and lay low behind a wall to discuss our next move
"Okay we all managed to get into the capital but what do we do now?"Meliodas says
"We can't afford to start a reckless fight in the city."Gowther says
"I say we knock some heads together."I say
"Couldn't agree more."Ban adds
We high five eachother

"With all these knights together trying to find Elizabeth could be a pain in the ass."Meliodas says
"Think we should head to the castle who knows it could be like one of those fairytales where the princess is locked in an underground dungeon."Ban says
"Don't you mean top of a tower?Gowther says
"Castle huh.."Meliodas mumbles and stares at the castle
"Let's go."Meliodas says
We then begin running making our way to the castle then we hear/see a large explosion
"What the hell was that?"Ban asks
"Judging from the sound and vibration it's about 0.5 miles away between the South and Palace gates"Gowther coming
"Come to think of it ,weren't we sensing someone with crazy magical powers."Ban comments
"It's actually Familiar too."I add
"I can sense Hendrickson just barely.10 years ago he was a holy knight who bore the title of platinum."Gowther says
Meliodas grunts annoyed and runs to a different direction where the explosion was coming from.

"I'm all for kicking asses but weren't we going to the castle?!"I shout
"The fastest way to save Elizabeth is to take em all out!"He shouts to me before jumping onto the roofs to make it easier to get to the direction of the commotion

"I think it's best we follow him."Gowther says
We all follow Meliodas and followed by the sound of another explosion accompanied by a piece of earth raised on the ground which could only belong to one giant

"Captain look."Gowther points
"Yeah that's Diane's ground Gideon  she must be here too!"Meliodas says
"What she doing in the capital that's kind of weird.."Ban raises his brow
"However this magical power is definitely hers."Gowther says
"So what do we do Meli?"I ask
"I'll help her, you guys make saving the princess your top priority."Gowther says
We all nod and turn back to our original route

"Villagers this is Grandmaster Dreyfus..we've been infiltrated by the traitors known as the eight deadly sins and they've began ransacking the kingdom."We hear Dreyfus' voice echo throughout the entire Kingdom

"The holy war has began Liones will be guarded by the holy knights ,the infamous reaper of Britannia the wolf sin,The fox sin,The serpent sin and the dragon sin are here!"Dreyfus says

"They must want to die badly Huh!"I say

"If you can fight take your stand!"Dreyfus shouts

"And Dreyfus will be the first head I go for no wait after Joriko!"I say
"Oh right Jerochio you still remember her?"Ban says
"I'm gonna give her hell,I've been waiting for payback"I say
Ban laughs

We then see large vines repeatedly smashing something not so far away from us.
We could sense King and Diane.
"What the hell is going on there?"I say we all pause and stare
"Captain.."Ban says
"I know,just when Gowther and Diane's powers started to fade Kings have been rising to unbelievable levels."Meliodas says looking at the direction where Diane and King were on

***
We look up and spot a kid in golf armor facing off with Hendrickson who we haven't seen in a decade not only that but he wield a sword with black flames coming from it.
What the hell?
Only members of the demon race can use black flames so how can he

Meliodas then rushes in front of the kid and full counters the attack before Hendrickson could finish him off
"You've gotten Powerful."Meliodas says to Hendrickson
"That voice..could it be.."Hendrickson says
"Yeah it's me alright and I'm not gonna leave without Elizabeth."Meliodas states

"Let's go."I whisper to Ban seeing this as our opportunity to head into the dungeons and find Elizabeth
***

"Alright Ban I'll look for Eli-"I turn around to see Ban gone
I sigh
"What a nice person he is."I say walking through the halls

Where or where could Elizabeth be?
I then hear a whiny voice coming from one of the rooms.
Bingo.
I bring my ear to the door to listen closer
"Hey Elizabeth?"I shout
"Lady Y/n!is that you!"She responds
I try turning the door knob but it wouldn't budge

"What's going on with this door?"I say
"I don't know it seems to be stuck!my father is in here they trapped him here!and they did the same thing to me!"
"Hey Old man Bartra you in there?!"I shout
"Hello Y/n."He says coughing at the end

"I'm gonna get you out!"
Pulling the door with all my strength it still would budge not even a little.
"What the fuck is wrong with this thing?...Don't worry you'll get out of here!"I shout pulling more

It must be some sort of magic.Where the hell is Merlin when you need her
"Why don't you just join them in there?"Someone touches my back teleporting me into the room
I turn around and see the mage from earlier that kidnapped Elizabeth
"Why you-"I try hit her right before she teleports away
"Dammit!Let me out of here!!Unless you wanna be on my list of people I wanna kill!!"I shout slamming the door
"Still the same short tempered Y/n I remember."Bartra says
I look at him
"Still the same old man I remember."I say
We both laugh and I hug him

"I'm gonna get us out of here one way or another."I say and I begin hitting the wall.It wouldn't budge.
I clench my fists.
"Lady Y/n it's okay."My fists light up without me noticing
I begin slamming the door harder
"Let us out!"I shout still slamming
"Lady Y/n calm down!"Elizabeth touches my back which brings me back to reality

"It seems your temper has gotten worse..it's almost like you weren't in control."Bartra says
I scoff and sit on a stool with my arms crossed
"Y/n what happened to you?"Batra says
"Nothing I'm fine..everything is fine."I say quietly
