Fight for Family (Zeldris x reader)

~5~

*Right after you leave the demon realm*

~back to your prov~

You appear in a field under the early star light, before looking up at the full bright moon and inhale. You hated the demon realm, but just because of your Master and because it was stuffy. It drives you insane to be there to long, so you exhale the crisp night air and summon your wings, opening them sharply. You then take off looking for Meliodas' magical energy. You were skilled in finding magical power, but for some reason you located him almost immediately. This confused you, because for you to locate him this fast you'd have to know him personally. The flight to him was short so you cast a spell to hide your presence, as you land silently in the woods beside a tavern.

You make yourself invisible as you lean against a tree looking in the window to see the Seven deadly sins, they were a sight to behold in person. Truly a bunch of misfits. You roll your eyes and walk around the tavern studying it carefully. When you come around the front again you see Galand frozen solid and you sigh heavily before walking up to him out in the open. "Galand what have you done..." you question looking up at the statues face, unaware why you feel sadness upon seeing him like this. You didn't actually know him... did you? You shake your head and quietly walk back into the forest beside the tavern despite feeling a pull towards the tavern and especially the Castle.

You hear voices start to come from the tavern front doors and you jump up into a tree and continue to hide your presence magically as well as physically making yourself undetectable. You hear Meliodas tell everyone to go do something for the night, you don't hear why, all you hear is protesting and groaning as they reluctantly obey their leader. After everyone leaves you watch Meliodas leave the tavern and walk through a hole in the castles barrier walls headed straight for the castle.

You sit there wondering why you didn't kill him then and there while he was defenseless, you shrug it off and hop down from the tree and silently walk into the tavern. You don't see anyone but you still try to stay quiet just in case as you take a look around, you walk straight to the bar and lean over looking around behind it. You freeze when you hear a sore and man grumble out the name of "Elaine" and ... your name. You turn slowly to see a man on the floor freshly passed out drunk, you cock your head to the side to see his fox tattoo and realized it was Ban the fox sin of greed. You have never met him and your a ghost story, so how does he know your name...

****

..."Heeey (y/n), (f/n)! How's it going?" The voice of the sly fox sin of greed rang out as he smirked. He emerged from the kitchen with his classic red jeans and apron on. "What's up bean pole!?" You yelled as a you jumped to hug the tall sin. "Bean pole!? Ha! At least I'm not a shorty!" He bellowed laughing at his nickname for you. "Dude, I'm fun sized!" You laughed...

****

... This time you stumbled back panting. That wasn't a hallucination, that was real! You start to freak out even more when the sin on the floor grumbles something while stirring, you panic and teleport out of the tavern still breathing heavily. 'How the mission going.' You hear Estarossa ask in your mind making you jump again. You take a deep breath and glare at no one in particular, but it didn't matter something wasn't right. 'Fine. I'm waiting for an opening to strike.' You respond telepathically. You stand tall and turn away from the tavern waking deep into the forest to do something you knew was probably stupid.

You weren't that far from the tavern but you didn't care. This would mean your death anyway, and there was no way you could kill Meliodas and keep him dead. You were totally screwed with this mission anyway from the beginning. So you take a deep breath and chant the summoning ritual, to summon the only mage you knew of off the top of your head right now. Merlin the boar sin of gluttony.
