This a story about a beautiful, young princess named Elizabeth, and a poor, thieving boy named Meliodas. In this world there are monsters and demons and all sorts of things.

Chapter 1

It was one of those days. Dark, stormy, raining, and thundering. Elizabeth was climbing up a tree from the palace. She was running away again. This was her normal. Trying to run away, that is. And each time she would get spotted and was taken back to the palace by one of the guards. She hated the palace and wanted to go and see the kingdom. Since she was going to be the queen is two years, she wanted to see what it was like out of the palace, meet different people and go different places to do so.

She got out of the palace and started to run. When she was near a place with lots of people, she would walk in with the them to blend in. It soon became night, and that's when she realized she had gotten so far from the palace, she couldn't even see it anymore, but she was still in the village nearest to the palace so she had to be careful. She found a place to rest for a while, and soon fell asleep. Little did she know that she would be found and kidnapped.

When she woke up she was in a room with a small bed. Where am I?! she thought to herself. Her hands were tied tightly together. Then, she heard footsteps and knew someone was coming. He was a big, tall man with a short brown beard and almost bald head.

"Who are you, and where am I?" She asked him.

Just then a young boy walked in. Elizabeth thought to herself, Who is this person? And why was he in here? And-

"Say something to the princess, son. Tell her what your name is." the man said.

SON! Oh,that makes perfect sense, Elizabeth thought.

"Hi, I'm Meliodas. Nice to meet you." he said.

"Hi..." She said back, questionable.

Meliodas was carrying something in his arms. It was big and it looked heavy. It was just a bunch of boxes.

"I am going to the next village with the boxes, so watch her, ok?" The man said.

"Yeah, dad." Meliodas replied to him.

After that, the man picked up the boxes and left.

"What was in those boxes?" asked Elizabeth.

"Nothing you need to know about," Meliodas said to her.

The rest of the time the two didn't say a word to each other. Elizabeth was trying to get free from the ropes that were tied around her wrists. It soon became dark, and that's when she realized that she was almost free from the ropes and was soon going to able to break free. So she broke the rope and tried to leave, but then Meliodas saw her and throw a knife at her. It gave her a small cut on the cheek.

"Are you crazy?!" Elizabeth said angrily, "You could have killed me!"

"You're the one who is trying to escape and it would not have killed you. It is just a butter knife," Meliodas said to her. "Plus, it is not that sharp of a knife."
