Victorias pov.

   It was a normal day in Vanya village for me, wearing my usual of a long black skirt (with shorts under neither of course), a black, grey, and green shirt with role-up sleeves (for when I am at work), and grey shoes with black and white lining (like the shoes the townsfolk wore) and I had green eyes like The ocean and dark brown hair like tree bark. My job their was to help make the ale that Vanya is known for. My part in making it was pushing giant wooden poles, to smash the berries and herbs for the ale, I had to get a job so I could make money to buy food and have a roof over my head because my parents had died when I was 3 years old. This was a job that only most men could do, but I was that type of woman who didn't act like their gender and did the tough work like the rest of the men did. But, this day however, didn't turn out like a "normal day" in vanya.
    Today was the day we present our finest batch yet of ale this year, to holy knight, Gill Thunder. The night before I could not sleep because of how nervous I was, wondering if sir Gill would like it or be disgusted with our newest batch of ale. My morning had been very nerve recking because of the event, having to pre-pair for his arrival. When everything was set, we waited for his arrival. Not even 6 minutes after we set up he had arrived through a dark grey thunder cloud, that wasn't their a few seconds ago when I looked up. Everyone in my village was watching when the knight took a sip from the glass. "Disgusting. I would rather drink horse piss than more of this swill." Everyone in the village gasped, it was the best brew yet and a holy knight just said it was worse than horse piss.
   After Gill had said that I got angry at him for disrespecting the ale the village worked so hard on to make. When suddenly a village child, who's parents died in the village so the village chief took him in, named meed, dropped a bug in the cup, which is a great sign of disrespect. The holy knight dropped his glass and pulled his sword out and blue lightening sparks lit around it. "Oh no...he's infested it with mana." I whispered under my breath with widened eyes.
  He raised it and shoved it in the ground with all his might, electrifying the ground, shocking everybody.
                                     ~Days later~
     We had tied giant pieces of thick rope around the sword. All the men in the village, including me, pulling at it trying to pry it out of the ground. We stopped to take a break when I noticed a short boy with shaggy blonde hair and bright green eyes with dark green mixed in as well, dressed in a white under shirt with the neck at the top measly straighten out and a black vest as well with a circle-ish backpack with a 2 purple zippers plus a sword holder with a green Dragon sword, the eyes were little red rubys and there was also a leather strap that went all the way around from the top of his right shoulder then going down wards and to reach his left hip. He was also wearing white pants that were loose at the bottom and black shoes that were similar to short boots that were above his ankles that also had sides that were loosely open at the top and a green straps like design in the middle, and their was a pink boar standing next to him as well. I was only able to see him for a second till I had to get back to pulling on the ropes 'but I wasn't even using a quarter of my strength since I had Learned that I could break a bolder in half so I didn't use it around others just to be safe' but I was able to make out their conversation over everybody else's moaning and groaning. The pig questioned "do you think it's some kind of festival?".
   "I don't know Hawk." The boy replied.
   The boy walked up to some villagers. "Hey what's up you guys?"
   "Oh its the bar keep." A villager commented.
   "Hey, what's with this festival?" The boy questioned
   "Does this look like a damn festival to you!?" Another villager next to him shouted.
   "Were trying to pull out a sword some holy knight jabbed in the ground."
   "He stuck it in the ground? Why did he do that?" He asked.
    The village chief walked over when he was asking this question, and replayed to his question. "Days ago a holy knight brought his wrath down upon us. He fused his sword with mana, and stuck it the ground and locked away our water under the village." The chief spoke sadly.
     "If we don't do something about this soon, we'll loose all our water and our fruit too!" A angry/sad villager spoke.
     "Then we won't have any more Vanya ale. Damn!" Another villager cried. Literally.
     The village chief spoke to the blonde child again. "Only a holy knight has the power to with draw a sword belonging to another, The news isn't going to be easy but I'm afraid this village is done for." The village chief sadly states. I frowned after hearing this. I had stopped listening to them and started paying attention to getting the sword out of the ground when suddenly.....SNAP! I had fell backwards with a 'thud'. I had realized the rope had broke off the sword the sword had not even moved. When I was sitting on the ground lightly panting meed came strolling in.
    "Whats with all this moaning and groaning?" Meed spoke.
    "Oh...it's meed." One of the villagers spoke with poison dripping from his words especially when he had said meed.  
    "If my buddy's The Seven Deadly Sins were here that sword' it'd be gone by now.
     He stated proudly swiping the right side of his nose at the end of his sentence.
    "Quiet Meed!" His auntie hushed at him.
    "And who's fault is it that were in this predicament in the first palce, of all the things to say do you have to mention those nasty criminals too!?" She screeched. 
    "Do want to make the holy knight angrier!?" A villager bellowed. "Yeah! Do you have a grudge against us or what kid!?" Another yelled.
    "No.....that's not why I did it." Meed mumbled.
    The villagers kept shouting at him till he spoke up. "Oh yeah!? Well guess what I hate all of you!" Meed bellowed.
    "Yeah!? Well we hate you too!" The children cried.
    A little village girl picked up a rock and was about to throw it I grabbed her hand. "Now throwing rocks at other children is not safe or ok, please put the rocks down or I will myself." I spoke to the children around me and gently put the rocks down.
     "Now meed may have caused is some problems with our herb making and our water supply but doesn't everyone make mistakes? Even children,butt hat doesn't mean you shouldn't yell at them," I paused for a second then continued
     "He was just expressing the feelings we all had deep down inside. Was it him who ruined our pride as ale makers? No. So don't be mad at kid who made a mistake, we all make them and thats what makes you unique. Your mistakes happen in life for a reason, so accept them, and forgive those who didn't mean it or regret it and seek forgiveness from past mistakes." I finished.
    I looked behind me and faced that way and bent down to Meeds height. "Meed is it true you want forgiveness by the village?" I gently asked the small child.
     "Yes I do but they won't give me i-" meed had been cut off by the villagers lifting him up and making a giant group hug.
     "We forgive you meed!" They all shouted happily.
     I smiled at the sight. I turned toward the direction of the blonde haired boy and walked over to him. "Well hello there!~ I'm Victoria, sorry for the "warm welcome", what's your name?" I said putting air quotients around warm welcome.
       "Well nice to meet ya Victoria! My name is.....Meli." Meli said shaking my hand with a smile on his face.
       "I no this is terribly rude to ask of me when you just got here but, do you mind pulling out the sword for us? I can tell you are someone who possess the power of a holy knight." I asked the short boy.
      The boy looked shocked at what I just said, but seemed relieved at the same time. "Of course!" He replied to my question with a smile and started walking over to the sword stuck in the ground in the very middle of Vanya village.
       When he reached the sword he gripped the handle and started lifting it with ease but it took some (very little) of his strength. He fully pulled it out of the ground and calmly walked over to 2 men approaching and dropped the sword in front of them. "I believe this belongs to you." He stated as the 2 men hurriedly picked up the sword caring-ly and ran off, probably back to Gill Thunders castle.
      "Hey Victoria?" Meli had questioned.
      "Yes?"
      "How did you know like it was common sense that I was something very higher than a holy knight?" The confused boy wondered.
      "Follow me if you wish to no." I told Meli.
      I started walking towards a private area were we could talk alone. I walked over to a tree and jumped on the lowest branch doing the same with others until I reached a small spacing with a plat form made of sticks and wood plan's covered by long dark and light green vines and leaves. When I got inside I looked down to see Meli starting in awe, but shook his head and did the same I did and eventually reached the plat form. "So you want to know how I figured out you were much greater than a holy knight?" I questioned the short blonde boy.
     "Yes I do, please tell me." He replied.
     "Well first of all your name isn't Meli, it's meliodas but nice cover name. And second I could just sense it like a great and strong bond binding me to you.....Well thats how it feels for me...." I said.
    "......." Meliodas was quite with widened eyes, you could tell he was shocked that you knew his real name and that he wasn't the only one with the feeling of a strong bond or connection to each other.
   "The only way someone could have a strong brother like bond could only mean......" meliodas mumbled but then froze as if he had realized something making me confused, until he asked.
    "Do you have any animal markings or weird tattoos you've never seen before?" I nodded and pointed to my left shoulder. He looked at me as if asking with his eyes if he could look.
    "Go ahead." I told him as he lifted my sleeve.
    "I was right, your the....."
