  -Four centuries later-
I laughed with a devilish smile. I had finally ran into the Seven Deadly Sins. Well a couple of them anyways. One was a short blonde haired boy and the other was a very tall light blue almost white haired guy. I crossed my arms and stared at them from the far distance I was.
"I suppose now it's time to have a little mischief." I smirked then flashed directly in front of him.
A blade that I had got extremely close to the blonde boy's neck that he started bleeding a bit but he didn't move an inch. All he did was continue to stare at me.
"So why are we in a battle again?" He asked as if this was normal.
"Because it's time I prove myself." I stated then moved the blade to slash him.
As I expected, he moved out of the way.
"No hard feelings, missy, but we were in the middle of doing something until you showed up." The pale blue haired boy said then swung a chain weapon at me.
I moved out of the way using my super speed. I yawned as I put my hands behind my head and crossed my legs as I leaned against a nearby tree. I looked at them and they both had fighting faces. Perfect. I got them mad. I smirked then licked my lips. The blonde boy ran towards me fast and tried to swing his broken sword at me. What the heck? Broken sword? I shrugged it off because who cares? I scooted back and swung my sword to block his attacks. With each fast strike he made, I made an equally quick move with the sword to block it. I cut him a few times and he only cut me once, which made me angry. At one point, I pushed him to the floor with my own strength and he groaned. The tall skinny dude got angry I guess and started to spaz out on me. I avoided every attack easily and cut him to the max, kicking and punching him with all my might. I eventually pushed him back easily too. He bumped into the blonde boy and they both tumbled across the ground. I watched them and just rolled my eyes. Boys...
"My turn yet?" I asked with crossed arms.
"Why of course! We're not finished with you, you weirdly strong little girl!" The white haired tall boy kind of stuttered at the last part but got up revealing the cuts and bruises I gave him have disappeared.
I whistled in satisfaction and he stopped.
"What? Checking me out already?" He smirked.
I tensed as I realized that my sword had cut up his clothing pretty bad and I totally saw his abs. My face got red and I balled my fists.
"N-no! I was finally getting who you are, Ban, the fox sin of greed. I shall say, your immortality is really impressive. I have lived a couple millennia and I can tell you, it's hard not being able to heal so quickly. So tell me, how does it feel as you regenerate?" I asked, actually pretty curious.
"Uh..." He looked at the blonde boy and he just shrugged.
"No more messing around!" The blonde boy yelled and started to strike again.
"No problem!" I smirked, cracking my knuckles.
Without looking, I cut Ban in half and he coughed up blood. I shrugged. He'll be out of battle for a little. I needed to see what the blonde boy could do. I ran towards him, striking him with my speed hits. Somehow he blocks every hit. Not bad at all... I was able to kick him in the stomach then cut his clothes a bit. I struck him with extra force but a bright light goes off and I felt the blow myself. We stare at each other with intense looks as I wiped off newly founded blood coming out of my lip. Alright. Time to bring it up a notch. I ran away a bit then stepped up the side of a tree trunk, quickly grabbing my bow and an arrow and shot it at the boy. His sword hit the arrow and I smirked. Just what I wanted. I rolled out of the way as the arrow exploded. The boy got sent flying backwards. I slowly walked towards him. He was struggling to get up. I pointed my sword at him.
"Did you like that trick? I call it Explosive Arrow. Cliché but." I shrugged at the last part.
"Why are you trying to kill us?" He coughed.
"Kill you?!" I started laughing, "Well you see, dragon sin of wrath, Meliodas, I'm merely just trying to-" I froze with wide eyes when I felt a bunch of mini knives were pointed at me.
"Captain! Are you okay?!" I almost fell when the ground shook.
I turned my head to see a boy and a VERY tall girl standing there.
"Why are you trying to kill the captain?! Are you with the Holy Knights?!" The boy almost yelled at me, holding his hand up in a certain position.
"Those assholes?! Yeah right! I came on my own terms!" I levitated too so I was at the same level as he was.
He glared at me then moved his fingers in my direction. The mini knives were all moving towards me. I snapped my fingers and my sword quickly moved and blocked every single knife. The boy groaned and I smirked with crossed arms.
"Is that all you got?" I asked.
"I'm only warming up." He smirked then snapped.
His many mini knives turn into a staff and he flicked his hand towards me. I rolled my eyes, avoiding every attempt he does to strike me. This was way too easy. I made my sword become two and struck him with both at once. His eyes widened a bit but not too much as his hand motioned picked up speed to keep up with my own. He'll never be able to match my speed. Eventually, he'll slow down. I continued increasing the speed of my attacks and his breathing started getting heavier and heavier as he scooted further back with each stroke. Once our weapons collided and we put equal strength into the move, he struggled to keep my sword from beating his while I looked at him with normal look. I scooted a bit closer so he could hear me.
"Ready to give up on winning?" I smirked.
Sweat trickled down his face and he stared at me with a face of determination.
"Never." He stated.
I shrugged.
"If you say so." I motioned my hand to flick him to the ground hard.
His body started shaking as he tried to push himself up.
"King!" Meliodas yelled and ran up to him.
I studied him for a few seconds then dropped my sword in shock. I felt everyone now staring at me instead of the boy on the floor, including the boy. My body fell to the ground and I landed on my hands and knees. My brain tried to process what was going on here. No way... It couldn't be... But, he's just like Elaine said all those years ago...
"Um... Hello?" I heard the girl giant say.
I looked up at them, my breathing turning into hyperventilation.
"Harlequin?" I exhaled.
