Zeldris stood there, a wide smirk pressed on his lips as he stared at Sky who held a growl on hers. Her eyes became a familiar hue of glowing red, they stared back at Zeldris's dead black ones. As if it couldn't get any better, the other commandments approached, all standing behind their leader, Piety. 

"I see you're still a bunch of dogs being that love being thrown bones, I guess some things never change..." Sky smirked, she knew how to piss them off, but under Zeldris's order, they had no choice to listen to his request of not harming her.

"Now, now Sky. No need to be so uncivil, we're just here on the Demon Lords' behalf. Honestly, it'd be so much easier if you just accepted out the offer and went with us. You'd stop an entire Holy War, that's what you're trying to achieve no?" She looked to see an unfamiliar silver hair man. She laughed coldly as if to match the mood. 

"And you are?" She asked, her voice low and dangerous. The man placed his hand over his heart in false hurt.

"Oh please, you don't remember me? It's me, the third son of The Demon King, Estarossa?" He asked dramatically. Zeldris looked heavily annoyed but his brother's remarks. Sky chuckled, as her weapon slowly formed into a scythe. Estrossa smiled widely, he could sense the enormous power within her. It was legendary, it was impressive, it was surprisingly attractive. 

"Sorry, I had come under the impression that the Demon King only gave power to mindless and dickless pipsqueaks. To have you as a son, a spineless, puny and frekishly tall is quite unusual and inconsistent, no?" Sky tethered, Zeldris held back a laughter. She was quite know for her snarky remarks. Estarossa chuckled, a he was now VERY attracted to her. He licked his lips at her revealing outfit, her body crafted by the goddesses themselves but her scowl drawn from the depths of hell. 

"Don't be to crude. We're just trying to negotiate you out of this curse! Hasn't it been long enough? Don't you wanna go back to your duties? All you have to do is come with us and you'll stop an entire Holy War, how does that sound?" Estarossa compromised, his back to her. He was struck, sending him backwards and crashing to the floor. 

"She won't be going anywhere on my watch!" A voice rang through the clearing as the clouds gathered over them. The strong scent of a storm and war lingered in the air as all the sins arrived, including the Holy Knights and the King Of Camelot. They all stood ready to battle, even Merlin who was still her Sacred Treasure. The commandments were aching to battle it out with their enemies.

"Been a while, brother..." Zeldris growled out. All hell was unleashed, they all began to claw each other. Everyone taking their own commandment and working together. Sky wielded her scythe at Estarossa.

"It's quite cute your friends think they're a match for us the-" before he could finish Sky had landed a kick on his jaw sending back.

"Don't be so cocky, you cockles bastard." She breathed out. A chuckle came from the depths of the forest as a quick flash sent her back, she coughed out streaks of blood. 

"Let me finish, and stop calling me dickless. You might be impressed by I-" Sky sent a punch at his gut, as she wrapped herself around his neck and flinging him forward. Estarossa grabbed her leg and nailed her on the dirt, causing the earth beneath her to crack under immense pressure. She let out a gasp as he sent a powerful shock through her body. 

Sky jolted at the pain, she struggled as she grabbed her scythe and knocked him off of her. She slashed at him, missing as he dodged it by a hair. He laughed.

"It's true what they say, you're an impressive fighter and quite powerful. It amazes me." He said breathlessly as he studied her panting figure. Her gaze was hard, still in a fighting stance she wasn't going to give up just yet, for her fellow comrades hadn't given up either.

"Yeah? Well, good because you're really pissing me off, fake prince." She sent a powerful wave of power causing Estarossa to choke. He clutched around his neck as he coughed out a black liquid, she twisted her hand as the glow in her eyes increased. Sky struggled to keep her hold on this, not use to using her powers on this realm. Estarossa laughed through the pain, as the inky substance trailed down his chin.

"Y-You don- don't have the p-power anymore do-do y-you?" He said as he held his neck. Sky's face was pained as the glow of her eyes began to falter, she held her breath trying to concentrate on keeping him in this choke hold. Finally she stoped, gasping for air falling to the ground next to him. Estarossa laughed, looking at her sweating figure. 

"Look around you, you're losing. You don't have the same power you once had. Give in or your friends will die." Estarossa whispered. She turned to see her teammates, they all were struggling to keep up. Their bodies being fringed left and right the commandments, their skin and clothes torn into shreds. Meliodas was being pinned by Zeldris, his foot on Meliodas's neck. 

Tears brimmed as she looked at the pain she had caused, Diane was barely up and swinging, Ban somehow was split into two, leaving Elaine to defend his body while he healed. King was at Diane's side also fighting and the sun was going down leaving Escanor weak. Sky watched as her friends were being defeated and she couldn't do anything about it beside give up.

"Fine!" She croaked out, everyone halted staring at her either in disbelief or relief. Zeldris smirked leaving his brother and walking towards her.

"No! Sky don't, you're better than this." Meliodas rasped out. Sky looked into his swollen eyes, she mouthed a 'sorry'.

"You win Zeldris, I'll go with you but you leave them out of this." She said looking up to him from the ground.

"You know I can't do that."
