-Elizabeth's POV-

Howser come in with Diane and sat her down on the couch. Then he left.

"Hey Elizabeth." Diane said.

"Hey Diane! So I was thinking that we start with talking about the accident. Just tell me your point of view and what you are comfortable with." I said with a smile. She nodded.

"Okay, I just remember that I woke up without memories of the latest time. I started walking home because it was the only thing I remembered, when I was a small, small child." She started, I listened.

"I come home and found my adoptive parent Matrona. She said that I had been missing in years and was shocked I come back." She continued.

"After some weeks, we had an argument and I decided to move out. So I did and found a place to live at, but when I was there. It was only men living near me. They said I am not welcome or can live there. Then they started a fight." Diane said. I was nodding and listening carefully.

"I had to defend myself and soon the police came and took me to jail because they think I was the one to start it all." Diane continued. I walked to sit beside her and hugged her.

"It's okay Diane. Shall we go to the next part?" I asked. She nodded.

"Okay, so I was thinking we would play a game or two. We have much time, left so it could be fun." I said. She nodded as I took the same game as me and Meliodas played.

I explained the rules and she understood. It took more time then with Meliodas, but then, it was a fast game. He was really lucky.

This time, I won. It took nearly all the time we had left to play it. When it was over, I walked up and took a pencil, eraser and a paper with the same questions as Meliodas.

"Here, this is like a homework. You don't need to answer all questions. Try to do them until tomorrow." I said. She nodded.

"Thanks!" Diane said.

"No prob, it was fun." I said. She nodded.

"It really was. I can't wait to tomorrow." She said with a smile. I smiled back. Then it was a knock and Howser walked in. Then he took Diane out.

"Bye." Diane said.

"Bye Diane." I said. Then she was gone. I waited for a half hour before Ban come in.

"Sup, princess." He said as he was walking in with Howser. Then Howser left and Ban plopped down on the couch.

"Hey Ban and princess?" I asked.

"You are the daughter to the owner. He is like the king, making you a princess." He said. I nodded.

"Anyway, I was thinking you would start with telling me your point of view of the accident and then we play a game or something." I said.

"Sounds good." He said.

"Just tell me what you are comfortable with." I said. He nodded.

"It started when I was a kid and was abused by my parents, but no one believed me that I was. Soon, a man found me and teach me how to steal because that was the only way I would survive." He started.

"After some years, I was as good as him and moved out from my parents. I was a traveller then. I had heard about rumours of a cup that was worth millions. So I decided to steal it and sell it." He said. I nodded.

"I was going to do it, but then I found a guard that guarded it. She beat me up time after time, but I wouldn't leave. Soon, I just stopped try to steal it, but stayed. We got to know each other and fell in love." He said. Then he smiled, bit it vanished fast.

"Then someone come and attacked the place. She was hit and died, but before that, she gave me the cup, told me to protect it. So I did and when she was dead, the intruders was gone. The police came and took me to jail for killing her." Ban said.

"I think that is enough. Do you want to play a game?" I asked. He nodded and his grin come back.

"Yeah, how do ya play?" He asked. I explained the rules as with Meliodas and Diane. Soon, we started playing and he won. It was a little faster play then with Diane, but took nearly the whole time.

He won. Then I got up and took the same things I gave Diane and Meliodas.

"Here. Like a homework, but you just need to answer what you want." I said. He nodded and took it.

"We have 7 minutes left. Is it something you want to tell me or ask?" I asked.

"Why are you here and not Mael? I know he was bad, but the workers had no problem with him." Ban said.

"I am not sure. I just know he did something horrible in here with some people." I said. He nodded.

"Well, it's better to have you here then him." Ban said. I smiled.

"Thank you. I hope it will be the same success here like in my other job." I said.

"What was that?" Ban asked.

"Psychologist in Camelot prison." I said. He nodded.

"Who was your patients?" He asked.

"I don't know if you have herd about them. I had 10 people in total under 4 years. It was Zeldris Dragon, Estarossa Dragon, Drole patin, Moonspeet Retric, Derierri Purityn, Gloxinia Reposel, Galand Turuthing, Grayrod of pasifi, Melascula Faithin and Froudrin selflessin." I said.

"That is the ones who come out of prison." Ban said. I nodded.

"They was free to go when they had gotten better." I said. Then it knocked on the door and Howser come in and took Ban. Just a half hour more until King comes.

Soon, King come and sat down.

"Hey Elizabeth." He said.

"Hello King." I said with a smile.

"So, I was thinking that you tell me about your accent. In your point of view. Then we can play a game." I said. He agreed.

"Okay, it-" I cut him off.

"Sorry, just tell me what you are comfortable with, okay?" I said. He nodded.

"Okay, it was some years ago. I had forgot about my life. Who I am, what I am doing and all. Everything. I had woken up with Diane by my side. She had saved me from drowning she said. I understood and we started to get to know each other while she took care of me." He explained.

"Then, I remembered everything and needed to go back to my home, but I didn't find anyone and it had burn down. Soon, I got back to Diane, but then, she loses her memories like I did and she was gone." He explained. I nodded.

"I started looking for her, but then, in a small town, it was a murder that killed everyone living there. I accidentally tripped on top of him and I was sure he would have killed me, but when I looked at him, he was dead. He had a arrow in his stomach." King explained. I nodded.

"So, I assume that when I tripped, he was shot with it. Then the police come and took me to jail, thinking I killed him." He said.

"I am so sorry. Is it something else you want to talk about or shall we play something?" I asked.

"I would like to play." He said. I nodded and took the exactly the same game as with the others. I explained the rules and then we started playin. He won.

It took the longest to play with him, but I didn't mind. When we was done, the time was nearly up. So I got the pencil, eraser and paper.

"This is like a homework. Answer the questions you are comfortable with." I said and gave it to him. He nodded and was about to say something when Howser come in and took away King.

"Bye Elizabeth." King said.

"See ya King." I said. Then my day was over. I got my things and walked home. It was good to come home and relax.
