4 | The Sin Of The Sleeping Forest.

You four have finally arrived at the Forest of White Dreams after saying goodbye to the village folk and travelling for days on Hork's mom. You had decided to leave your sword in the Bore Hat since you were certain that you could just do a little trip into the woods without a weapon. And besides, if worst comes to worst, you suppose you could ask Meliodas for help...

"It's been almost three hours since we entered the forest..." Elizabeth muttered, "But we haven't seen a single person or animal here."
Hawk snorted, "The only things I see are trees and branches... I'm getting sick of this."

The silver-ette turned around to the blonde, "Lord Meliodas...Is one of the Seven really in this forest?" She asked,
"Probably." He said with a blank face, Hork suddenly turned around with a very offended expression. "So we're here for no reason!? What!? I think there are rumours of a crazy monster in this forest..."

"Kyah!" Elizabeth squealed, you perked up, as did Meliodas: "What's going on, Elizabeth?!" He shouted, "So...Someone has their hand in my skirt..." She muttered, and as you looked back, you realised that there was also a hand in yours. "Don't worry, it's just me." Meliodas stated, Elizabeth relaxed herself once again, "Oh..That's alright, then...You scared me a bit..."

"How is that alright!!?" Hork's loud voice interrogated, you pouted and slapped Meliodas' hand away from Elizabeth. "It's not!! I'm not letting some guy we just met a few days ago touch her like that!!" You boomed,
"Yeah-!!" Hork was interrupted by you shouting once again, "-if anybody's allowed to touch her there it's me!!!" You quickly shoved your hands into Elizabeth's skirt and grabbed ahold of the inside of her belt as if it were a bar.
"Whaa!!?" The pig wasn't sure whether to be confused or angry.

Meliodas just shrugged and kept one hand in his pocket and the other in your skirt, making you three look like a weird conga.

"I do have a hunch." The boy spoke, "This 'Forest of White Dreams' is covered by fog all year long. Travelling on horse here is difficult, and it's easy to lose your sense of direction. Even people used to travelling, like hunters, avoid this forest." You perked up in realisation. "Oh! So this place would be perfect for hiding from the Holy Knights!"

"Hey! Shut it back there! Monsters always attack while you're messing around, so cut it out!!" Hork's annoyed voice commanded.
"No one likes a paranoid piglet..." Meliodas stated.

"Who you calling a paranoid piglet, huh?!" Before you could even realise it, there were thirty Horks instead of just one. Your eyes widened, all...All of this juicy pork right infront of you!!

"I'm everywhere!!" "What the hell?!"

"Is...Is this the monster in the forest!?" Elizabeth questioned, her sweet voice snapping you back into reality just as you were about to scran basically every pig there.

"Hey, Meliodas! You might not believe me, but I'm the real one!!"
"No, I'm the real one!!"
"Shut up, you fake!!"

"Meliodas, what're you gonna do about this...?" You asked the blonde as you slowly made your way in front of Elizabeth to protect her from any sudden jump.

He thought for a second before quickly attacking every single Hork there, making them all fall to the ground in agony, "No...No mercy..." One of them croaked.

"Hawk!!" Elizabeth cried out in worry,
"Waaaaaahh!! Elizabeth!!!" They all ran towards the girl and hid behind her legs. "Even momma doesn't hit me!!"

"Hey...Wait...Hork?" She muttered before both you and she turned around, only to be met by a shocking sight. You saw...You! And Elizabeth! It was like looking in a mirror! Just as your eyes darted around, there seemed to be more and more doubles of you two.

"Ah! Elizbeth! There's-! Me! -And you!" You pushed Elizabeth behind you, "Stay away from my Elizabeth, you fake!" A different you shouted as they squared up.

"Maybe we should all just leave this forest..." Elizabeth, who you couldn't tell if she was real or not, muttered."Meliodas! Get rid of that fake! -please! I'm the real Y/n!"

"Oh, just be quiet, you-me-whatever! You're just a dumb clone trying to get me killed!!"

Meliodas quickly picked up Hork and hopped onto a high(ish) amount of hill, "Now let's see...Which pair is the real one?" He asked loudly enough that all of you could hear him.

"They're fake, Meliodas!"
"Lord Meliodas I'm the real one!"
"Please believe us!!"
"We'll do whatever to convince you!"

"Then you have to do exactly as I tell you, alright?" He asked with one of his arms on his hip.

"Right hand up, left hand on your cheek!!" Every one of you followed his order.

"Say my name with an embarrassed face!!" You soon heard all of the Y/n's and Elizabeth's around you say the boy's name in a sultry tone, so you closed your eyes and placed both of your hands on your cheeks, "Lord Meliodaaaass....!!" You whined.

"Caress eachother's bodies closely!!" You immediately pounced on the closest person, which seemed to be another Y/n. And rubbed your head on her neck while wrapping your hands around their waist and slowly rubbing their back and sides.

"Whoooaaa, what a view!!"
"Take this seriously!!" Hork shouted, making the blonde sigh, "Alright, for this last test... Jump as high as you can!!"

Almost all of the clones had jumped into the air. Almost. "I'm sorry! I can't do it!!" One of the Elizabeth's cried as she dove low to the ground. Your eyes sparkled with an excited gasp as you immediately plunged towards the earth, "My girl!" It was such a relief to be near the REAL her! To nuzzle her neck and have her in your arms, nothing compares to it!

While you were off celebrating your small reunion, Meliodas quickly got to work with those IMPOSTERS! When the clones fell to the ground, they were all wrapped in a cloud of smoke, and when it dispersed, the creatures that were previously 'you' and Elizabeth' now looked like goblins or trolls--and they were all fleeing!

"Hey!! So those were the monsters in the forest!! The prankster imps, 'Hide and Seeks!!'" Hork shouted,
"Let's chase them! They must be running back to something!!" Meliodas exclaimed as you all started to run in the same direction of the gremlins.

"Oh, thats right. You two can have these back." The boy muttered before he quickly turned back and passed you both eachother's panties, "Oh! My covers, you had them? Ha!" You replied with a chuckle as you quickly put them on and continued to run, whereas Elizabeth was a lot more flustered but caught up nevertheless.

"Look...Look at that! They're running to that little girl!!" Elizabeth shouted, you could all start to see a giant woman who was wearing a short-sleeved, one-piece orange suit and a pair of boots that reached her knees and two fingerless gauntlets that had a blue-grey leathery material and were covered in shiny steel studs. She had quite a curvy body with medium length brown hair that was tied into some twin tails.

"Hey, hey, are they going to attack her next!?" Hork questioned, "Oh no...We have to hurry..." You all came to a halt as a result of the sudden confusion, "Uhh...Huh?"

"Lo...Lord Diaaaane!! We've allowed a holy knight to come through!! Please forgive us!!"
