Hello everyone, I hope you like this chapter.

Chapter 4

BACK OUTSIDE IN THE REAL WORLD, WITHIN SOME VILLAGES CHURCH

Currently a group of villagers were praying to god for help.

"Dear God, please see fit to return the young men of the village who were taken away by the kingdom."

"Please deliver divine retribution upon the Holy Knights..." as the last one prayed, from above came down a lightning like comet that crashed down Indy the building, injuring everyone inside while a single Holy Knight walked out. It was Gilthunder who glances at his broken wrist yet looks forward as he continues walking, thinking how he got even stronger then before. The moment he exited the building, he stops right there to be met with two cloaked figures, one holding a spear over his shoulder while the other held a large shield.

"Yo!" The spear holder said which Gilthunder's eyes narrow.

"You're apart of Hendrickson's faction, what business do you have with me?" He questioned the two of them which the spear holder only smiles.

"Mind telling us where exactly you last seen the sins at as well as what direction did you come from." Hearing that, Gilthunder's eyes narrow while he stares at them.

"And why would I-" He stops there to see him taking out a piece or paper and opens it to show to Gilthunder.

"We will be dealing with the Sins upon Hendrickson's order so do listen to your orders by one of the Two Great Holy Knights, lil Gil." Hearing that, Gilthunder just stares at them with annoyance all the while the shield holder was looking from where he had fallen from.

BACK AT THE BOAR HAT, FEW HOURS LATER IN DALMARY TOWN

"I myself am amazed that this one is still alive, even with having been dealt such a wound." Spoke Dr. Dana who had placed wrapping over Naruto's body too cover the sword wound as well as a cold cloth on top of his head. The Doctor proceeded too pour some of the medicine into his mouth as he was still unconscious with a Nurse in the room, along with Hawk, Elizabeth, and Meliodas.

"This medicine is my own special concoction. I can guarantee that it will ease his suffering." Spoke the Doctor to the glad Princess.

"Thank you for saving him Dr. Dana..." Hearing that, the Doctor just shakes his head with a look of confusion on his face.

"Actually, when I went to check his wounds they were halfway healed and the burns have almost vanished. This boy must have some sort of healing magic that activates even while unconscious. Is he an injured Holy Knight?" Questions the man yet the Princess shakes her head.

"Tell me, what actually transpired for him too get such wounds?" Hearing that, the Princess just looks down which the Doctor understands. Soon enough he left the room with the three still inside with Naruto. The Princess was soaking the towel all the while speaking to them.

"It's my fault...I want to stop the Holy Knights but because of that, Naruto's got hurt badly." As she said it, a tear fell into the water with Meliodas just staring at her.

"Elizabeth..." Spoke Hawk who watched the Princess shake her heard as she tried holding back the tears.

"Ever since we were kids, he didn't really have friends to play with and he turned into a prankster that wanted too be noticed...just like me. You could say I was his first friend, because of that he's always protecting me. He once told me that one of the reasons why he wanted to be a Holy was that he could be assigned to protect me...so...if it weren't for me then he wouldn't be in such a condition...if it weren't for me looking for the Seven Deadly Sins he wouldn't be put in such situations...it's all my fault." As she said it, more tears fell into the water with Meliodas just staring at her before he looks away.

"I can understand why you wanna cry, but I also know how much you want to protect this Kingdom from the Holy Knights. Is a tear or two All it's gonna take too make you give up on that? I made up my mind to search for the Seven Deadly Sins and too stop the Holy Knights. Even if you died somewhere along the way, I'll make sure to keep the promise I made to you." Hearing that and seeing him look directly in her eyes, she was surprised and even asked him if he meant that before he looks away with sadness.

"We all die someday...but, as long as someone keeps their dreams alive, they won't die. Once you decided to follow them, no matter how much you bleed and even if your tears dry up...you stick too it...that's one of the Ten Codes a True Knight follows. Besides, Naruto isn't dead and he'll continue getting stronger... I know for sure, Naruto will one day embody what it means too be a Knight of Honor and Valor. Anyways...I'm gonna look around for rumors of where another Sin could be." Once that was said, he exits out of the room and leaves Elizabeth ally he while his thoughts on Naruto.

"He is defiantly not "his" descendant...that's really Naruto. If we're all together then that means something big is going too happen." Meliodas thought, knowing that the future up ahead won't by good. While this was happening, things took a different turn from within Naruto's very mind.

BACK WITHIN NARUTO'S MINDSCAPE

"Dammit...I've been walking for hours yet I can't see any difference." Spoke the annoyed Naruto who's been walking all through the sewer system yet cannot pinpoint the massive aura's he was feeling. That was until he felt it, a pulse from within him when he found himself at a corner, staring at one of the pathways that were covered in darkness. He felt very cautious and on edge, not liking the feeling her thoughts of something popping out too scare the shit out of him yet had no choice but too approach and enter the darkness. All he could hear was his footsteps as he approached another area but couldn't clearly see out if it was too bright. The moment he walked through the bright light, what he found was a shocking surprise. It was a gigantic prison where the only cells where on the left and right of the room. The jail cells were gigantic with a single tag on it. Naruto merely walks into the room more, only stopping until he was in the middle of it and below him was a large kanji for "Seal". When he heard movement from his left, he turns towards it fast and was met with a terrifying aura that froze him as sweat was falling from his face.

"Finally found me...well, not much a surprise but even so it was expected." Came the sound that was identical too Naruto's yet had a darker tone to it but more so easy going and enjoying the conversation that he just started. He couldn't even look away but stare at it as his heart races as he watched what looked like a figure stand at the doorway but for some reason the cell brightens too reveal more detail. It was a humanoid figure who's entire body was covered in black straps with hundreds of chains in its back that were attached all over the walls with tags on them of kanji. Not only that but from the looks the figure was quite skinny, standing with somewhat of a slouch. Not only that but in its arms and legs were what looks like large cuffs attached too gigantic glowing white orbs, one for each cuff.

"Now, let's get this over with and-" He was silenced by another tone that was identical too Naruto's yet had a more serous tone yet sounded hopeful in a way, along with it he felt a warm aura that seemed too relax his fear yet was more on edge. When he turns around he found the same thing yet the color scheme was switched.

"Do not trust him, he wants you too release him so he can just cause chaos!" Warned the one in white which Naruto made a mental thought of splitting them up into White and Black. Just after that was said, he heard a laugh filled with what could be felt as joy.

"I wouldn't say that, after all...I'm not the one who's so on edge. You gotta relax, after all the one in charge is here." Spoke Black who found this too be a joyful scene.

"As always, you're a poor excuse for a counterpart...if it weren't for you-" White was cut off by Black who spoke with irritation.

"Don't go there, I loosened his chains...if it weren't for me, he may have committed suicide." Hearing that, White could only glare at him just as Black did the same with it only increasing, causing Naruto too sweat a lot at the pressure in the room.

"Do not blame me, it was "his" fault this ever happened." When White said that, the other couldn't help but agree all the while Naruto had no idea what was happening.

"What the hell is going on, I've never sensed such killing intent before and who is-" Naruto stops there just as a memory of Meliodas flashed through his mind which he touched his head.

"Why did I-" His thoughts were silenced by the killing intent and aura increasing even higher that forced Naruto to his knees as both spoke in great anger that ringed in his mind.

"IT'S ALL HIS FAULT!"

"IF IT WEREN'T FOR THAT HIM, WE WOULD HAVE HAD HER!"

"KILL HIM!"

"HE STOLE HER FROM US!"

"HE HAS BEEN NOTHING BUT A CURSE FOR US!"

While he heard those words, he grabbed his head in utter pain as images flashed through his mind of what looked like a darker version of Meliodas. As he images continued, the pain Naruto was feeling also continued yet was getting even higher. Naruto had begun to scream in utter pain as many images flashed through his head yet couldn't process them and think of them more clearly with the voices getting louder.

"SHUT UP ALREADY, RAAHHHHHHHHHH!" Naruto screamed he curled up in a ball with tears appearing in his eyes as it was a living hell at what he was experiencing, as of his body was being torn apart and his mind om fire eyes closing with his hands covering his ears, trying too block out all the voices of rage and anger until he heard it, a clear voice breaking through the two which gave off a feeling tranquility.

"You're not ready." With those words, Naruto opened his eyes too find himself outside the prison again and in the sewer system. Seeing this, Naruto stood up with confusion as he once again felt the auras.

"I gotta find a way outta here..." Spoke the red-head, no longer liking it here one bit before he starts walking again but in a hurry. While this was happening, he didn't even notice a shadow standing behind him with the figure showing a smile before vanishing like a ghost.

BACK OUTSIDE OF NARUTO'S MIND

Currently sitting next to the bed where Naruto lay was Elizabeth who had Hawk sitting next to her.

"I hope, you do get stronger...so much that you won't get hurt again." The Princess spoke, hoping too never see Naruto in this condition ever again. While this was happening, Hawk was looking up at the Princess with worry on his face. That all ends when a new voice was heard behind them, alerting the two with shocks be slight fear at the sudden appearance.

"It...is you." Came the voice of a female which immediately caused Elizabeth too stand up while she turns in shock with Hawk at seeing a cloaked figure standing behind the two with a large shield on the persons back. The figure said nothing yet violet eyes that seemed to be glowing could be seen under the hood, and they were staring at her. Great killing intent could be felt from the figure who was glaring right at Elizabeth.

"You...I remember you!" Spoke what appears too be female that surprised the Princess right before she was suddenly grabbed by the throat and lifted in the air all the while struggling too break free.

"HEY, LET HER GO!" Shouts Sir Hawk who tries too attack by charging at the female but received a powerful kick that sent him into a wall, leaving cracks on it.

"Hawk..." The Princess said before she looks back the figure who starts reaching for her large shield, until the door was kicked open. When the figure turns, charging at the person was Meliodas who held his broken sword and swung at the figure who used the large shield too quickly block the strike all the while letting go of Elizabeth and skids back but only two feet away. The figure stood up straight and seeing Meliodas, the killing intent increases more which alerted the Captain of the Sins who quickly turns to look at Elizabeth.

"ELIZABETH GET-" Meliodas couldn't finish that sentence right after the female figure slams her left first into his stomach, sending him flying out the window with tremendous force all the while Hawk and Elizabeth stare at the figure in shock.

"Meliodas, the worst evil...he is also to blame as much as you you Goddess whore. I'll deal with you after I kill him." While she said that, the figure grabs her own cloak before ripping it off entirely to reveal a woman looking about Elizabeth's age with shirt pink hair and violet eyes. Just after taking it off, her shield decreases in size too resemble a smaller more circle like shield.
