Love and Death

Chapter One

Meliodas was lying in Elizabeth's lap, feeling lost within his thoughts being pulled into the deep abyss of his psyche.

Can you stop the fire?
(please, please).
Can you stand to fight her?
(please, please).
You can't stop the fire.
(please, please).
You won't say the words.
(please, please).

He wakes up in a field of black rose petals, next he heard a woman's voice and she was singing, she had a beautiful voice but it was filled with anger, sadness and loneliness.

Please, please forgive me,
But I won't be home again.
Maybe someday you'll have woke up,
And, barely conscious, you'll say to no one:
"Isn't something missing?"

He turns to the direction of the voice, it was woman with brown skin, long black wavy hair and sad purple eyes. She was curled and was wearing a long black dress with a matching pendent around her neck. For some reason Meliodas recognizes her, he didn't know why but he knows her and walks towards her but the woman placed a shield around herself giving the blond demon a chilling look.

You won't cry for my absence, I know
You forgot me long ago.
Am I that unimportant?
Am I so insignificant?
Isn't something missing?
Isn't someone missing me?

"Who are you?!" Meliodas demanded but the woman ignored him and kept singing.

Even though I'm the sacrifice,
You won't try for me, not now.
Though I'd die to know you love me,
I'm all alone.
Isn't someone missing me?

Can you stop the fire?
(please, please).
Can you stand to fight her?
(please, please).
You can't stop the fire.
(please, please).
You won't say the words.
(please, please)

Please, please forgive me,
But I won't be home again.
I know what you do to yourself,
I breathe deep and cry out:
"Isn't something missing?
Isn't someone missing me?"

The woman felt blood leaking from the corner of her mouth and her eyes.

Even though I'm the sacrifice,
You won't try for me, not now.
Though I'd die to know you love me,
I'm all alone.
Isn't someone missing me?

And if I bleed, I'll bleed,
Knowing you don't care.
And if I sleep just to dream of you
And wake without you there,
Isn't something missing?
Isn't something
Even though I'm the sacrifice,
You won't try for me, not now.
Though I'd die to know you love me,
I'm all alone.
Isn't something missing?
Isn't someone missing me?

Can you stop the fire?
(please, please).
Can you stand to fight her?
(please, please).
You can't stop the fire.
(please, please).
You won't say the words.
(please, please)

The woman stopped singing finally facing Meliodas, her eyes were filled with tears.

"How could you?" she answered cryptically tilting her head, before she disappeared and shattered like glass and Meliodas felt his head ringing and he gasped in pain holding his head in his head to stop the pain and he felt his life flashing before his eyes and his memories were flurrying.

"How could you forget me!?" The woman demanded angrily reappearing before the blond demon her eyes were illuminating a bright purple indicating her rage.

"Do I mean nothing to you!? After everything we've been through, how could let her poison you, Meliodas!?" She demanded with a hurtful expression on her face.
