Kaynes Village
In the small village of Kaynes most of its men were at a new bar that appeared out of no where, but it had good booze, so no one really asked where it came from. The bar name was the Boar hat. It is a four-story build with a cone roof. It had a green deck surrounding it with some walking steps in the front. The main bar was on the main floor and was a large room with many tables placed around, with the far wall from the door being the counter with a bottle display.
Inside the bar everyone was sitting around having a good time as a young boy with blond hair was moving about bring people their booze. This kid wore a white shirt with a black vest over it with a black tie loosely tied around his neck. He wore white pants and black shoes. But what all the guest saw was strapped to his back was a sword that had some sort of serpent as a handle.
"Sorry to have kept you waiting! The "Boar Hat" meat pie special." Said the kid as he handed three men a meat pie as the three men dig into it, until they tasted it.
"This is disgusting!" The three of them yelled at the same time as they spitted everything out of their mouths. And at the same time they spilled the rest of the pie on the floor.
Meanwhile the kid didn't look surprised at all. "As I expected. We're known for great booze but terrible food."
"What did you just say!" One of them yelled at the kid.
"You should have said that first." Another said.
But the last one was worried. "Hey, he has a sword!"
But he kid wasn't worried at all. "Clean it up." Was the kid said as he snapped his fingers. At first the men thought he meant they had to clean it up, but then a pig walked into the room and stopped before them.
"Geez what a pain." The pig said shocking the three men as the pig looked at the boy. "What do you want from me?"
"Clean up the floor." The boy told the pig as the pig started to clean up the food while complaining about it.
"How about feeding me some real food scraps?" The pig asked as the boy thought about something.
"If it's a whole pig roast, I seriously feel I could pull it off." The boy threatened, scaring the pig.
"Delicious!" Cried out the pig in fear. "These food scraps are the best!"
Soon after everyone calmed down and after the three men ordered some booze, everyone in the bar continued talking to each other. There were two conversations going on. The first was about the seven deadly sins and where they were, but a lot of people thought them to be dead since they were being hunted by the holy knights. But one person stated something that made them wonder 'If they were dead why are their wanted posters updated every year?'.
The other conversation was about a rumor of a knight wandering about in rusty amour. No one knew where the knight came from, but they sure did have their stories about it. Some thought the knight was one of the sins searching for the others, while others thought it was the ghost of one of the sins.
Then out of no where the door slammed open and a knight wearing rusty was in the door way.
"The Seven deadly sins." Was all the knight said weakly, but hearing this people screamed as they rushed past the knight and ran away as fast as they could.
The kid then jumped the bar counter as he looked at the knight. "Who are you?" The kid asked, but at that moment the knight fell over backwards. The force from the fall caused the knight's helmet to come off revealing a teenage girl with silver hair.
"A woman?" The pig said in confusion.
But before either one could say or do anything a pillar of light appeared in the bar. While the pig covered its eyes with its ears to protect his eyes, the boy watched as his hand slowly going for his blade. Then the light faded, standing there was Lucy a little disoriented from her trip.
As the boy watched Lucy with wonder, Lucy put her left hand on one of the tables to get her bearings. She then saw the boy and pig as the three of them just stared at each other.
"Hello." Said Lucy as she waved at them. "Could you tell me where I am?"
"Sure." Said the boy as he then looked at the knight on the ground. "But first help me with this."
"OK." Said Lucy as she had no other choice but to do what he said, as she didn't know where she was or how to go about finding the sins. But if this boy tried anything weird she would be ready for him.
Soon the two of them got the amour off the girl revealing a black one piece suit she was wearing and placed her on a bed on the next level.
As the boy watched the girl Lucy asked if she could use a restroom, with he boy telling her were one was. After freshening up Lucy was heading back to where the other two were, when she saw the pig walking that way.
"He owns a pig?" Said Lucy out loud and the pig turned her way.
"I'm am not a pig, I'm hawk." The now dubbed hawk told her.
"A talking pig!" Yelled Lucy. Sure, she has meet talking cats, but a pig was a new one.
"Why are you so surprised?" Asked Hawk wondering why she was so shocked.
"Are you kidding have you ever seen another talking pig?" retorted Lucy as Hawk didn't have an answer for her.
"So..." Started Lucy getting hawk's attention. "What is this place?"
"This is the Boar's hat." Hawk told her as Lucy wasn't quite happy with the answer.
"And the Boar hat is at?"
"Oh, its currently in the village of Kaynes, but that could change soon." Hawk told her as Lucy wonder what he meant by it 'could change soon'.
But Lucy kept her mouth shut as they went to where the boy and the girl were. As Lucy opened the door they saw the boy groping the girl who was awake as she was just staring at the boy. Lucy and Hawk just stared at the boy as he groped her.
"Well you have no abnormalities in your heartbeat." The boy told the girl as the girl could only say 'Thank you' dumbfoundedly.
"You bastard, acting so aloof!" Cried Hawk in shock and anger.
But Lucy walked up to him and wacked him upside the head. "You can't go groping girls." She yelled at him as the boy looked unfazed.
"Where am I?" Asked the girl as she looked around the room trying to figure out where she was. Lucy also wished to know the answer.
"You came into my shop in some crazy daze and suddenly keeled over." The boy told her as he opened the curtain on the nearby window.
"Shop?" Asked the girl not sure what to make of it.
"The Boar hat! It's my shop." The boy clarified to her.
"Are you… the owner?" The girl asked him as she was still trying to understand everything.
"Is that strange?" The boy responded as he was used to hearing that.
"Wait he is?" Lucy asked Hawk who could only shake his head before answering.
"He is." Hawk told her before adding. "And if he offers you food don't take it."
Hearing that Lucy wasn't sure how to respond to that as she then heard the girl scream as the both turned to see the boy had drawn his sword. But all it was, was just the handle with a little bit a of broken blade. In all it didn't look like it could truly hurt anyone.
"Did I scare you?" Asked the boy with a laugh. "Even if it's just the hilt, it looks pretty authentic if I just show it off, right? This is what you'd call an incentive for people not to run off without paying."
Lucy just stared at the hilt and what he just said. 'If Erza was here she would probably agree with him and give him pointers too.' Thought Lucy with a sweat drop.
"A lot of different customers come to this bar after all." The boy continued as he put the hilt away. "It hard being the owner."
"I feel sorrier for the customer that get their cash stolen from you after being feed your food." Countered Hawk as he walked into the room more.
The girl then took a look at Hawk and then got of bed and walked over to him. Lucy thought she was going to freak out, but the girl did the opposite.
"Wow! It's a talking piggy! I begged my father for one when I was a little girl." Said the girl as she hugged Hawk and petted him. Then her stomach growled as the girl bushed.
"Right are you hungry?" Asked the boy as the girl nodded. "Ok, what about you?" He asked Lucy.
Lucy was about to say yes, but then she remembered what Hawk said to her. "No thank you. I just need to know where I am and what's going on around here." She told him as the boy nodded.
Later down in the bar the boy was making the girl her food, the girl and Lucy were sitting at the bar counter.
"You know we never introduced ourselves." Started Lucy as the girl looked at her. "My name is Lucy Heartfilia."
"Hello Lucy, my name is Elizabeth." Said the now name Elizabeth as the boy placed a plate of food in front of Elizabeth.
"In addition to looking after me, you're even giving me food. Just... what can I do to repay you?" Asked Elizbeth as she grabbed her fork and knife and got ready to get. Lucy looked at the food and it looked quite nice. She then looked at Hawk and wondered what he was talking about.
"It's all right, just eat!" the boy told Elizabeth who took a bite and stopped.
"How is it? It tastes horrible right?" Asked the boy with no shame in his voice at all.
"Yes." Elizabeth told him as she still had he fork in her mouth.
"I knew it." Both the boy and Hawk said at the same time.
"Then why did you give it to her!" Cried out Lucy.
"Because she was hungry." The boy told her as if nothing was wrong. "Now then how about I hold up my end of the deal. What do you want to know?"
"Well Hawk told me we're in Kaynes Village, but is it in Britannia?" Lucy asked him as the boy looked at her weird.
"We are, but on the outskirts of it's territory. Why don't you know that?" He asked trying to figure her out.
Lucy looked at the people in the room and decided to tell them the truth. After all she doubted she could lie to them, since she knew nothing about this world. "The truth is I came form another world."
Hearing this both Elizabeth and Hawk gave her weird looks. "Oh, that explains things." The boy told her.
"Wait!" Said Lucy dumb founded as Elizabeth and Hawk shared her shocked look. "You believe me?"
"Yeah." The boy told her as Lucy stared at him. "I've heard of other worlds before and the way you entered my bar supports your story. Though I do wonder, why are you here?"
"I was sent here to find the Seven deadly sins." Lucy told him hoping he might know where they are.
"Wait your looking for them too?" Asked Elizabeth as Lucy looked at her and was shocked she finished her plate.
"Humm, why are you looking for them?" The boy asked Elizabeth, as Elizabeth looked and answered him.
"I need their help to save the kingdom." Started Elizabeth but a loud pounding on the door stopped her form continuing.
"There was a notice from the village!" Yelled somebody from outside, as five knights in light amour stood in front of door. "We are the knights garrisoned at the base of the mountain who serve the holy knight himself! We have come to capture the rust knight who appears to be one of the 'Seven deadly sins'."
Back inside Lucy was confused at why the knights wanted the sins, but Elizabeth looked scared for her life.
Meanwhile with the boy. "Some noisy guys have arrived." He said as he didn't care, until he saw Elizabeth face.
"Come out quietly!" Yelled one of the knights. "If you do so we won't unsheathe our swords."
But still no one came out. "He must be an old man! Seems he's scared of us." Said the same knight as he laughed. "All right! Then I'll give you thirty seconds!"
"Don't need it." Said the boy as he walked out with an uncomfortable looking Lucy.
"That was fast." The knight said in surprise as he regained his composer. "Who are you two!?" He demanded.
"I'm the owner." The boy told him as he then gestured to Lucy. "And this is my new bar hand."
The knight looked at the two as neither fit the discerption he was given. "Where's the rust knight!? Bring him out!" The knight demanded.
"Come on out." Said the boy as he and Lucy stepped to the side.
"Looks like your pretty quick to understand…" Started the knight but stopped when Hawk walked out wearing some of Elizabeth's amour.
"I'm Hawk the rust knight." Said Hawk proudly.
"Th-this pig is one of the 'Seven deadly sins'!?" Asked one of the knights in disbelief.
"Like hell it is!" The main knight told him as he was pissed off with the stunt they were pulling.
"What!" Said Hawk in annoyance. "I'm the leader of the knights od disposing of scarps of food! Don't you know that?"
"There is no such group of knights!" Cried out the main knight in annoyance as Lucy was trying not to laugh at him.
Then the Main knight grabbed the boy's shirt and lifted him up into the air. "You Brat! You've got some guts mocking a knight." He told the boy, but the weird thing was the boy didn't even flinch or look worried at all.
But at that moment Elizabeth ran away from the Boar hat via its back door. But she wasn't quite enough as the other knights saw her leave.
"Mr. Alioni, a woman just ran out the back door!" Yelled one of the knights.
"What!" Said Alioni in surprise as he quickly regained his composure once more. "That woman is probably the rust knight! After her!"
Soon the five knights ran after Elizabeth as the others just watched. Soon Lucy ran after them as she didn't want anything bad to happen to Elizabeth while the boy looked at Hawk.
As Elizabeth ran through the nearby wood she could hear the knights yelling. "Don't let your guard down! If she's really one of the Seven deadly sins, she must possess considerable skill." One of the knights yelled as Elizabeth jumped over logs and rocks.
But then she heard the knights cry out in pain. Daring a look, she saw three knights on the ground as the fourth one was hit by a glowing whip held by Lucy.
"How dare you attack us. Do you not know who this is?" Said Alioni as he got his sword ready, but then out of no where Hawk rammed into his back sending Alioni flying as he hit a tree head on, he then slowly slid down it until he fell off it, unconscious.
"I've got nothing against you, but… I'm getting double the amount of food for dinner tonight for doing this." Hawk said to the knight he sent flying as the boy appeared and the four of them regrouped.
"I'd sent Hawk to help you though it looks like you didn't need it." Said the boy as he looked at the four downed knights.
"I just got lucky." Saud Lucy was she rubbed the back of her head.
"So..." Said the boy as he looked at Elizabeth. "How does the rest of your story go?"
Hearing this Elizabeth nodded as the three of the deserve to know after helping her again. "The reason I am searching for the Seven deadly sins is to stop the holy knights."
"Who are the holy knights?' Lucy asked Hawk in low voice.
"They're the knights among knights who protect Britannia. They're considered hero's." Hawk told her as Elizabeth heard their conversation.
"And they are a terrifying existence. Just one of them has enough power to match an entire country's army." Elizabeth continued what Hawk said as Lucy looked scared, as Elizabeth had one more thing to add. "What if they decided to wage war against Britannia?"
Hearing this the others were surprised and were wondering where it was going, as Elizabeth explained.
"A few days ago, due to a coup d'état orchestrated by the holy knights, the king was captured. The kingdom has essentially fallen into the hands of the holy knights. In order to start a war, they are forcibly recruiting people form the town and villages surrounding the kingdom. The men are to be trained as soldiers, the women and children are to bring food for storage, and the elderly are to construct castle walls. Without mercury those who oppose them are…."
Elizabeth didn't need to finish as they understood what would happen. "Soon enough the effects of their actions will befall this region too." She finished.
"Seriously!?" Stammered Hawk in shock.
"That sounds pretty bad." The boy said with a calm face.
"But why don't the people stand up after hearing about this? If the holy knights are really meant to protect the kingdom that would mean the people as well." Asked Lucy in confusion as she tried to understand everything.
Elizabeth shock her head. "The holy knights are hero's if they ask for the people help they will help. And those who don't, people will think them as traitors." She told Lucy who didn't like hearing that.
"If there were one thing that could stop the holy knights, it would be the Seven deadly sins!" Finished Elizabeth as she told them her story.
'So that's why your looking for the sins.' Thought Lucy as she was about to tell Elizabeth her reason.
"Come on." Said the boy as the others looked at him. "Are you looking for the Seven deadly sins, even knowing what kind of people they are?"
Elizabeth just looked the boy in the eye, not with anger but with kindness. "When I was five or six, my father often told me stories. Apparently the Seven deadly sins were the strongest and cruelest order of knights in the kingdom, formed by seven brutal criminals who carved symbols of seven beasts into their bodies."
Hearing this caused Lucy to sweat in fear. 'These are the knights that are going to save everyone.' Thought Lucy in fear as Elizabeth continued.
"Ten years ago, they were accused of plotting to overthrow the kingdom, and disintegrated after all the holy knights in the kingdom launched a general offensive against them."
"And there were rumors of them all dying, if I recall." The boy added as Elizabeth was about to say something when Lucy cut her off.
"They're all alive." She told them. "The person who sent me told me he had a vision of the future of them all fighting the problem I was sent here to prevent."
Hearing this Elizabeth asked Lucy something she had been wondering for a bit. "Why are you looking for the Seven deadly sins?"
Lucy looked at them thinking about it. If they believed she was from another world then they should believe this. "To gather them and stop the demon clan from being unsealed." Lucy told them as everyone had different reactions.
Hawk looked like he was going to wet himself. Elizabeth put her hand to her mouth in shock. But the boy, they boy's eye went hard like he was ready to fight for his life.
"What did you say?" The boy asked her as his personality did a 180.
Seeing this Lucy took a step back in shock and fear. "I was sent here by the Celestial spirt king to find the Seven deadly sins and help them to prevent the demon clan return." Lucy told him in fear, while wondering what caused the change in personality.
The boy stayed quite hearing this as another voice boomed out. "The demon clan! HA! You'd have to be crazy to believe such nonsense!"
Turning around everyone saw a large man wearing bronze amour, that small spikes on the left shoulder and a sword attached to the back. He had gray buzz cut hair and a curly mustache and thick plucked eyebrows.
"Who are you?" Asked Lucy as she got in front of the others to protect them, even though her knees were shaking a little.
"I am lord Twigo." Answer Twigo as he looked behind him at his knocked-out men. "And snice my men are unconscious and you're in the area, you must be then ones reasonable for this." He then drew his sword (that was a broadsword) as he finished.
Lucy then pulled out one of her keys as the others were wondering what she was doing.
"Open gate of the golden bull, Taurus." Said Lucy as there was a bright light. When the light faded there was a humanoid bull standing before Lucy. He had a white body with black spots on it and two horns on his head. He wore nothing other then a speedo being held by a silver belt that had a red circle on the front and had a circler nose ring. His for arms were wrapped and had a belt wrap around his body holding a large axe.
Seeing this everyone, but the boy where shocked to see this cow man appear out of nowhere. But the boy looked more like he was surprised more then anything.
"Hello nice body." Said Taurus to Lucy as Lucy sighed at the comment.
"Taurus, I need you to deal with this guy." Lucy told him as she pointed at Twigo.
Taurus then pulled out his axe. "Of course, my nice body." Said Taurus as he then leapt at Twigo who was still shocked at the sight of Taurus.
Taurus swung his axe down at Twigo, creating a dust cloud as the blow landed. As the dust was in the air Lucy felt good about the blow as she waited for the dust to settle, while Elizabeth was still surprised at what Lucy did. She was about to ask her about it when the dust settled, and everyone could see that Twigo had his sword out in front of Taurus. Seeing this Lucy was as shocked as Taurus as Twigo didn't even move form his spot.
"I was worried for a second there, but it seems your all show, no might." Twigo said as he pushed Taurus away from him.
Twigo then swung his sword with enough force to push Taurus away form him as he landed on the ground with a thud. As Taurus tried to get up Twigo swung his sword again as a blast of concentrated air hit him causing him to glow and disappear, shocking the others. But the blast wasn't done as the wind knocked the others down.
As they got up Elizabeth's hair moved to the side revealing a blue sqhere earing on her left ear. Seeing this Twigo eyes went wide.
"Confirmed!" Twigo yelled out confusing the others, while Elizabeth was scared. "Princess Elizabeth."
"Princess Elizabeth!?" Cried out Hawk in shock and surprise. "As in the princess of the kingdom!"
"You're a princess!?" Lucy asked in shock as she put her hand to her mouth in surprise.
"There is a search order out for you thought-out the kingdom. You won't run, will you?" Twigo asked as he what he said next sent chills down both Lucy's and Elizabeth spines. "The orders are to capture you alive… But it can't be helped if you die in an accident can it."
Hearing this the boy said the only thing they could do at the time. "We're going." He told the others as he turned and ran away with the others quickly following him.
"There's no way I can allow myself to be captured. There's no way I can give up!" Elizabeth cried out as she ran.
Twigo heard this as he readied his sword. "Confirmed! Accidental death!" He cried out as he swung his sword cutting down every tree in its path. It would have cut the girls too if the boy didn't pull them to the ground letting the slash fly over them.
Twigo then walked into the fallen trees as he looked around. "Now then, what will the circumstances of death be? Crushing by a falling tree or from blood loss from the cut of the whirlwind?" He asked himself as he continued looking for their bodies.
Meanwhile Lucy opened her eyes and saw that the boy was over Elizabeth shielding her from fallen branches. Lucy then started to get up as she looked around herself. 'He has this much power and he's not even one of their strongest.' She thought with fear, until she saw Hawk.
"Hawk are you OK!?" Lucy asked with fear for his well being as she saw he had a twig had stuck itself into him.
"You call this skewered-pig state ok." He countered before he started to cry and ran off. "Momma!"
Twigo watched as Hawk ran off. "A pig? Well what ever." He said to himself as he walked in the direction she saw the pig come from.
Back with Elizabeth she got up off the ground and started to walk towards Twigo direction.
"Elizabeth where are you going?" Asked the boy as Elizabeth stopped to answer him.
"I won't be able to get away." She told him as Lucy walked up to her a slapped her.
"That's all you can do after everything you said." She told Elizabeth who had he hand on her face where Lucy slapped her.
"I understand, somewhat, what you're going through. I ran away from home to have a better life. Once I found a place I could called home my father sent people after me to bring me home just to marry me off. The people he hired nearly destroyed everything my new home had. I was willing to give myself up to save my new family, but they stop me, and they save me from my father. So, don't give up now when you just started."
Hearing this Elizabeth wasn't sure what to say as the boy walked pass them.
"Nice speech Lucy." The boy praised. "Allow me to properly introduce myself, I am the dragon sin of Wraith, leader of the Seven deadly sin. Meliodas."
Hearing the two girls were shocked to hear that one of the sins they were looking for was right in front of them the whole time.
Twigo on the other hand was shocked to hear the boys claim. "A lowly boy claiming to be the leader of those traitors. Unacceptable!" He cried out and charged forward with the goal to cut Meliodas in two. But as he said this, his sword made contact with Meliodas's sword Twigo felt a great deal of force hit him instead.
'What is this?' Thought Twigo as he looked down at himself and saw cut all over his amour and his hair was a mess as well. 'My sword would have certainly have finished him off. But the one who took the blow was me?'
He then saw that the sword Meliodas had was drawn and all it was, was just the handle with a broken blade.
Looking at what just happened Twigo came to an overwhelming conclusion. 'This is the leader of the Seven deadly sin.' He thought as he took a step back in fear.
'I have two options.' Thought Twigo as he took a step back while Meliodas just stood there. 'I can either fight him or I can run, which will look bad for me at first, and tell a real holy knight about this.'
Twigo then turned around and started to run, knowing he couldn't win. Then out of no where a giant green pig landed on him. Luckily for Twigo he was still alive, but he wouldn't be moving for some time.
"What the!" Cried out Lucy in shock at the sight of the giant pig.
"Oh, don't worry Lucy that's just mama Hawk." Meliodas told her like it was no problem. "Anyway, looks like both of you found you first sin."
"About the remaining six, I've got business with them too. So, I've started searching for them recently and if what Lucy said is true then were going to need them." Meliodas told them as Elizabeth wondered something.
"Then why the bar?" She asked wondering about it.
"To gather information." Meliodas told her as he then got a thought. "If I had two serving girls, then I'd be able to get more customers and more information."
Meliodas then looked at the girls but more so Elizabeth. "You'll both come with me…right?" He asked them.
"Yes!" Elizabeth said almost instantly.
"Ok." Said Lucy as a rope ladder came down mama.
"Let's get outta here!" Said Hawk from the top of mama.
Soon all of them where on top of mama as she walked away from the village and the knights. Each person thinking about different things. Elizabeth was thinking how lucky she was to find Meliodas so fast. Lucy about the gap in her power towards the people of this world. And Meliodas had an unreadable look on his face as he was deep in thought about what could come to Britannia.
So here's the next chapter, what do you think?
Now I know there are some of you out there wondering why Taurus got beaten so easily. The answer is that the people in the Seven deadly sins world are stronger then those in the fairy tail world. But don't worry Lucy will be getting stronger as the story goes on.
Until next time.
