Broken Promise

"Revealed"

Meliodas' POV

I went out the room and, head downstairs to celebrate with the rest of the members.

"Oi!" I said and waved at them.

"Where's Luna?" Hawk asked as he walked around serving everyone food.

"Oh, she said she will skip and get some rest" I answered as I took a cup of ale.

"That lazy girl. All she ever do is eat, sleep and go goggly eyes to you Cap'n" Ban said and, chuckled afterwards as he drank his ale.

Everyone laughed and nodded their heads. "Better than her being arrogant, Am i right?" I said and made a toast to Ban.

Then, we felt the ground shake for a bit but, like a snap it stopped.

"What was that?" King asked as he looked at me confused and alert.

My senses picked up something quite familiar but, yet I am not sure what it was.

"Probably Luna sleep chanted her circle again while she's asleep" Gowther said when he pushed back his glasses. Everyone chuckled in respond.

I better check if what Gowther said was true. Better safe than sorry. I was thinking of an excuse to make when Ban interrupted my thinking.

"Oi Cap'n! Here is a delicious meal for your lady" he said as he handed me a plate full of Luna's favorite dishes.

"Wa! Ban that's a lot! What did Luna ever did to you?" I asked jokingly.

"Well, that lazy ass saved my girlfriend. Plus, it was our deal" He answered me as he gave Elaine a side hug.

Before walking away, I told everyone I was going to deliver the food to Luna and, comeback down afterwards.

I was climbing up the stairs when, I heard papers flipping. I thought she took a nap, I didn't know she was awake going through her book.

I opened the door, "Luna, here some food, I thought you we-" then my sentenced stopped.

"L-luna?" I asked feared can be heard through my voice. I slowly and quietly place her food on the drawer beside me.

There, stood a lady with a blue navy robe and, her hood on. Her back was facing me so I couldn't see her face and she was looking through Luna's book, I'm guessing.

My eyes quickly searched to see if this villian did anything to her. Luckily, she was peacefully sleeping in the bed.

"W-who are you? What do you want?" I spoke up.

"I am Carmina. I mean no harm" she answered and, slowly turned around. Her face, she have some of Luna's face features especially, her eyes.

"Are you here because of Zeldris? Are you one of them? Tell me lady, what are you doing here" I asked her in range as my hands began to turn into fists.

"Please, I came in no harm. I'm not even alive anymore. I am just a spirit, see" she said as she waved her hand through my stomach which, went through it.

"Ok, what do you want?" I asked her as I calmed myself down.

"That girl. What do you know about her? Where did she came from?" She started asking as she pointed to Luna.

"I don't know anything about her past however, I remember that she was offered to the demon king when she was just a child. Her family didn't want her because of her abnormal powers" I answered her and sat next to Luna.

"She, her blood. She have the blood of an Onyx. Here, everything you need to know it's here" she said as she handed me the scroll.

"Look, I don't have much time but, whatever happens, don't allow her to consume all her powers! History will repeat itself and, she will loose herself as well" she said but here voice changed on the last sentence.

"What do you want me to do?" I asked her wishing she have a solution.

"A portrait of affection, URGH" she said as her stomach started to disappear.

"W-what do you mean?" I hurriedly asked, before she could say a word she was gone.

"M-meli? What's going on?" Luna asked as she yawned.

"Luna, is it true? About your powers?" I asked her and showed her the scroll.

Her eyes widened and, her face became paler. "H-how did y-you.. Meliodas" before she could have said more, I stood up and walked away.

Thoughts roamed my head. Why didn't she tell me? I thought we were not to keep secrets.

I was scared to loose her, again.
