***Meliodas P.O.V***
Dream:
I was in my new school, and as i walked in the gates, everyone formed a ring around me. I tried to move, but couldn't. The students started chanting 'Go away demon, begone! We do not like demons, so die!' Over and over. I was engulfed in hellblaze and I screamed in agony, while they just laughed. I was then consumed by the darkness.
I woke up to my alarm ringing. It read 7:00am. Damn, i might be late! I jumped out of bed and tiptoed down stairs. Then I realised i was still in my PJ shorts. Embarrassed, I ran upstairs and got dressed in to the school uniform.
It was black trousers, white shirt and a green, purple, pink, orange, red, yellow or blue tie, your pick. I picked green, my favourite colour.
I ran downstairs and made breakfast. It was a huge fry up. Bacon, eggs, black pudding, sausage, square sausage, the whole lot. But none for me. Luckily, I'm a bad cook, so I don't need to eat it. I just had an apple. I had just finished putting it on the table, when Estarossa and Zeldris walked in.
'OI! Brat!' Zeldris yelled at me, trying to hit me but luckily, I managed to dodge, only to be hit in the face by Estarossa.
'Wheres our apple juice?' He asked quietly, sorta like the calm before the storm. I knew i had to run.
'In the fridge!' I yelled and ran for it. I grabbed my schoolbag and bolted out the bar. As I walked out onto the streets, i let out a sigh of relief. I managed to avoid another fight again today. I think.
As I walked past some streets, I realised I didn't know where the school was. This was because my new school was kind of like a boarding school, where all the houses in a certain area belong to the school kids. On the Holidays, they either go back home or stay at the school houses. I didn't panic because I could always ditch, i mean, I did it all the time at my old school, not that anyone cared.
As i was walking past some fancy houses, a girl exited the big, lilac house. She had long silver hair and was wearing my uniform, except a skirt and a pink tie.
'Hiya!' I ran up to her.
'Oh, ummm... hi.' She said. She looked nervous and a bit startled.
'Oh yeah,' I continued, ' I'm new at Melburn high and I don't know how to get there, so can I walk with you? Please?' I asked, saying the last part sweetly.
'Oh, sure!' She said. 'I thought you were another ill person or something.' I looked thoroughly confused.
'My power is healing,' she explained. I nodded.
We started walking down the road and I asked her 'I'm Meliodas by the way, what's yours?' I asked her curiously.
'Oh I completely forgot! How rude of me! I'm Elizabeth!' She laughed. A tinkly little laugh. How adorable! She's so hot! Wait! I only just met her! I shouldn't think things like that! But me, being the pervert i am, mostly ignored my thoughts. We started talking, and I got to know her a little.
'There's lots of little groups in our school, the holy knight, the royalty, the fairies, the giants, the goddesses, the demons.' She shuddered.
'I'm in a small group. We call ourselves the Seven Deadly Sins. We all have something that we did to get called that. You know, because of our past?' Elizabeth chatted happily. I liked this school already.
'We each have a tattoo on part of our body. Mine's on my left hand. It has an animal that represents our sin on it. Mine's a hummingbird. Oh, you probably want to know my friends names, right?' She inquired. I nodded.
'Ok. So there's my bestie, Diane with the orange tie, Merlin with purple, King with blue, Ban with red and Gowther with yellow. Escanor used to have a yellow tie, too, but he moved to Africa.' Elizabeth then began to describe her friends. She suddenly stopped and looked at me thoughtfully.
'This means we have a spot open on our group! You should totally get to join. All you do is spar with our leader, Diane. If you win you make it and if you lose don't. ' Elizabeth squealed. I was a bit taken back.
'So you want me to join the sins?' I asked. 'Me, a small, perverted abu-well nevermind... you want Me?' I said.
'Yup!' She said.
I suddenly saw the school as we turned the corner. It was massive. I am definitely getting lost! It was two stories high, and the size of a castle. No, scratch that, it WAS a castle. It had turrets and everything.
Elizabeth ran towards some people sitting on a bench. I identified them as Diane, King, Merlin and Ban. I walked towards them.
'Nice to see you princess!' The guy named Ban said, picking Elizabeth up and spinning her around, while everyone laughed.
'Keep doing that, Ban, and Guila might think your cheating on her!' King laughed, making the others laugh even louder. Elizabeth and Diane were hugging. She really was tall. Like, 7ft. Diane then saw me. Her eyes narrowed.
'Elizabeth, who is that?' She asked, pointing at me.
'That's Meliodas. He's new and I met him on the way to school. We walked together since he didn't know how to get here. He's my new friend!' Elizabeth giggled, while I started to whistle, acting very laid back and chilled.
'If you say so,' Diane said. 'Any friend of Elizabeth is a friend of mine!' She beamed. Just then the bell rang for the start of class.
Class was mostly boring.
It was lunch time and i had just got my meal: Pasta, apple juice and a rice Krispie cake. I was looking on where to sit, when I saw Elizabeth, Ban and Diane waving at me.
'Yo, cap'n, come sit over here with us!' He called.
'Cap'n?' I asked as I sat beside him.
'Yup!' Elizabeth said, her mouth full of apple. 'Most of us have one. I am princess and Harlequin is King. The others have nicknames, but we don't use them. Bans is Dumbass, Merlin's is mage, Gowther is dolly, and Diane's is giant.' She says. The others nod, cringing a bit at their nicknames. Diane looks a bit upset at hearing her nickname mentioned.
'So,' Ban says, changing the subject. 'I hear you're gonna enter the contest to become a sin?' And i nod.
'Yeah, it sounds fun. And it would be nice to make friends. Unlike my last school.' I replied casually, as if I didn't care that my life sucked. They all looked a bit shocked.
'You mean you had no friends at all? For 11 YEARS?!?!?!' King spluttered.
'Yeah. The kids either were afraid of me, bullied me, or hated my brothers and took their anger out on their " weaker, younger sibling" ' I said, showing them a large scar on my hand.
'This is where one girl was mad at Zeldris for dumping her and stabbed me. In several places.' I added. They all stared at me in shock. Except for Gowther who looked blanc.
'And you just took all that abuse?' Diane asked angrily.
'Yeah, i mean it was the easiest way. If i fought back... it made things worse...' i shuddered at the thought. 'Can we change the subject?' I asked. They looked at me kindly (except Gowther, who's face still looked blanc.). Just then, the bell rang.
'See you at the bench before school tomorrow!' Diane called. 'And see you at the tryouts, Meliodas!' She called, waving.
At the end of the day, Elizabeth was waiting outside my classroom.
'Walk home with you?' She said shyly.
'Sure,' I agreed.
We walked all the way to her house chatting. As she approached her door, I said 'Meet you here tomorrow?' And she smiled and nodded. Then, to my surprise, Elizabeth hugged me.
And then entered her house and shut the door. Sighing, I walked sadly to my house to a ton of homework i got given, not to mention train for tomorrow.
*** Elizabeth P.O.V***
As I watched him walk away, whistling to himself, I felt a twinge of sadness. I feel sorry for him, no wonder he's so quiet! He had no friends so he didn't know how to react. I vowed to make his life happier.
I ran up the stairs into my room, dumping my bag on the bed beside me, and went on my laptop. I opened up Chatville. Everyone was online.
