The Star Blessed Twelve (SDS Fic)

Chapter 9

"Hey, Ban, mind laying King down on one of those tables?" Brooke asked as she stepped inside the tavern. After defeating the Holy Knights and taking down the air dome around the villagers the group ha headed back up to the Tavern to rest before doing anything else.

"Huh, why?" Ban asked.

"Because at this rate the kid's going to bleed out from that wound if we don't do anything. We don't have all night."

Ban glanced down at Meliodas and the two of them shrugged before Ban dropped King onto one of the nearest tables. Not wasting a single second Brooke stepped up to the unconscious fairy. She took a breath and reached her palm upwards. For a second nothing happened, until water started to appear floating about her upwards facing palm.

Though looking at the water, Ban and Meliodas could tell that the water in her hand wasn't normal- no- it  seemed to be glowing and a certain warmth radiated from it. 

Not wasting a second, Brooke slowly and carefully moved the water over King's wound. "Purify"  She said, and slowly the water covered the effected area and spread around. The dried blood was soaked up by the water and the wound healed right in front of everyone's eyes.

Pulling back, the water that was now a red color slowly started to shrink until it disappeared completely. A second later King blinked open his eyes and pushed himself up into a sitting position. "What happened?"

"That's incredible! I've never seen someone use that kind of healing magic! Could you possibly be a Druid, Brooke?" Diane asked as she looked inside the tavern through a window.

"Oh, no. I'm not a Druid. I've just picked up a few things during my travels. Anyways, you should be fine now, King."

King's hand was hovering over where his wound had been, a look of awe on his face. "Amazing, I've never seen healing magic this effective. I feel even better than I did before."

"Hell yeah you do! Brooke's healing is one of a kind!" Titus exclaimed, drawing the attention on him.

"Wait, who're you?" Meliodas asked.

Titus sputtered, "What do you mean 'who're you?' I'm the guy who saved your asses!"

"Titus, calm down." Brooke said as she walked over towards the two of them. "You've already met Aarona, but let me formally introduce you to two of my friends. Standing in front of you are Aarona and Titus Terato." The two of them placed their fists on their chests and bowed their heads once they were introduced.

"Pleasure to officially meet you." Aarona said. "By the way I'm the older sibling."

Titus sputtered, "Why'd you have to tell them that!? If you hadn't said anything then they wouldn't of known!"

"They'd still know I was older with how immature you are."

"Guys. Please, now's not the time for another fight." Brooke said. She turned and looked at the sins, "Sorry, the two of them are prone to bickering with each other. If they break out into fights please feel free to snap them out of it using any means necessary."

"Huh?! Why'd you go and say that?" Titus asked.

"Because in the past you two have accidentally leveled entire forests with your fights. If I recall correctly one of your arguments almost brought the Fairy King's Forest to the ground." The memory of that event seemed to of quieted the two of them down, while the Sins looked on in confusion- King looking especially confused.

"Well, it's a pleasure to meet you, Lady Aarona, Sir Titus. My name's Elizabeth, it's a pleasure to meet the both of you."

Aarona looked at Elizabeth and her expression grew cold. "Elizabeth?"
