Disclaimer: I do not own Young Justice or seven deadly sins.
I got one good review about Meliodas and him having eyes only for Elizabeth, which I totally agree with. I only put that scene in because it was funny and I love freaking out Hawk.
Thank you and enjoy.
"Open up! We've had a report from some villagers! We, the Order of the Beard of the Mountain Cat serve under the Holy Knights and are stationed at the mountain's base! We're to arrest the Rust Knight potentially one of the Seven Deadly Sins. Come out peacefully!" One of the knights yelled and the bang the door. Artemis raised an eyebrow at the ridiculous order and holding in a smirk as well.
"Again with the unruly customers." the pipsqueak said.
"Holy Knights..." The silver hair girl whispered in feat.
"You two can run out back while we distract them." Hawk said.
"Th-thank you!" said silver hair girl.
"What about you and Pipsqueak?" Artemis did like them enough to be a little worry.
"We'll be fine." said the boy.
Artemis never backs out from a fight but she knew she just has to trust the kid and protect the girl from whoever was at the door. "Let's go Princess!"
"Princess?!"
Artemis ignore her and nodded to the boy and grab the girl's hand and took her to the back of the tavern where it lead to the forest. "Come on!" Artemis yelled.
"Right!" said the girl.
They run as fast as they could but they could hear the knight coming after them. Artemis knew they were going to catch up. 'Damn, I'm still not at my normal speed but maybe...'
She got a crazy idea.
Ever since she was little girl, she had a connection to nature and wind. She never use her powers in public in fear of her father but since he's not here... Artemis use her powers to push the knights back and subconsciously had the trees help her get them out of the way as well.
Behind them Hawk was running and pushing the knights away from the girls too. Artemis's wind help Hawk to get to the knights faster.
"What is it? What's going on?" Yelled the knights.
"The pig is charging at us and the blonde girl has magic!" Quickly enough only one knight is left running, the others were hanging or thrown back onto the trees. The girls were gone in a second cause they disappear to the trees.
"They're not here!" the knight reach a cliff and was alone, sort of.
"Off you go!" Hawk push him off the cliff all he heard was a girly scream going down.
The silver girl was saved by the boy and Artemis use the vines and tree branches to get on the tree with the boy and girl. The boy was groping the girl again but she didn't care as she was too thankful. "How can I ever thank you for saving me not just once, but twice?"
Artemis vexed to the girl, "Princess, just punch him."
Hawk agreed, "That's right, feel free too!"
They got out of the trees and the boy started to ask questions for both girls. "Oh, why are you looking for the seven deadly sins and what amazing power you have, what's it called?"
They started to talk about the sins first for a little bit but realizes too late that the ground was breaking and falling.
"Oh, give me a break!?" Yelled Hawk.
Artemis wasn't to behind, "Seriously!" But luckily Artemis and the boy were fast. Pipsqueak got the girl and Hawk while Artemis had trees roots pull her and the knight, the one Hawk push off the cliff, up.
"Allioni!" They heard another knight call out but then they saw a man with red armor and teal hair.
"You there! How dare you lot survive without my leave! I shan't revive my death tally. Conclusion!" yelled the tall man in his mid-30s with teal hair and red armor.
Artemis and Hawk had a few words for him. "Oh, you're not the only one who tried to kill me and not succeeded!" Artemis yelled back to the crazy man.
"Nobody asked you to concise anything and you're not helping!" Hawk yelled at the man and Artemis. Artemis look away from the pig with a blank look on her face. Artemis and Pipsqueak look at the girl who seem scare.
"Hey, are you awake?" Pipsqueak ask the scare girl in his arms.
"Y-yes..."
"Great, she's not dead!", Artemis is a little snippy but who can blame her, she's not use to this new world yet because she figure it's not the past she knew about in her world they don't have talking animals or the fun arse names from before.
"Okay, when I give the signal run towards the forest! Got it? You as well Airy!"
"Airy?!" Artemis caught the look he gave her and sighed, "Fine whatever, Pipsqueak."
"Y-yes".
Both girls' answers, Artemis knew without knowledge of this place she's a sitting duck but she has a feeling to fight and protect the people she just met from the crazy man.
"So, which of them is the likely member of the Seven Deadly Sins? Neither of them bears any resemblance to the wanted posters." The man said to himself but enough for where they can hear.
Artemis, notice the man eyeing them carefully but she also caught the glimpse of the earring and knew the man saw it as well. Because he was walking towards them and saying, "Fate is smiling upon me today! The crest on that earring is that of the royal family! Meaning that you... Conclusion! You are Princess Elizabeth!"
"Princess Elizabeth?" Both blonds said.
"That was only a nickname!" Said the archer.
"Hang on, Princess Elizabeth?! She's the country's third princess!" The pig yell out
"Cool." that was the only thing Artemis can say because at this moment she didn't know what to think.
"Not the time." the shorter blonde told the taller one who snap out of her thoughts.
"An official decree has been issued to locate you. The order was to capture you alive but...if you died in an accident that would be regrettable but unavoidable." The crazy man said out loud.
Artemis and Pipsqueak looked at each other and nodded.
"Run!" Pipsqueak yelled.
They ran to the forest again the princess didn't not want to die knowing her home will be destroy if she return. Artemis though, 'This is crazy, knights, Princess, god it's the Middle Ages! A part of me wants to leave but I'm too much of an adrenaline junkie and I want to help them. After years of torment they took it away in two hours, I'm happy and they didn't ask my name. God this is crazy!'
The man destroy the forest which hurt Artemis because she was connected to the forest. "You okay, Hawk, Airy? Like looks like it."
"Airy?" the boy asked again, Artemis shook her head and gave the boy an okay signal.
"I'm pork on a stick! You call this okay?! Mommy!" Hawk ran away to his mom while crying and has a stick in his back.
The man let the pig go. "A pig? Well, no matter..."
Artemis and pipsqueak saw that the princess is ready to give herself up to try and save them. But the man was hell bent on killing them and the boy ended up saving the princess again. Artemis saw a mark a dragon on his left shoulder and for some reason she look at hers, her left arm was still cover but she can see some lines that were never there before... But before she could do anything the boy spoke.
"Meliodas. That's my name." The girls remember the wanted posters of that man in the wall.
"I don't believe it..."
"Damn, Pipsqueak is strong."
"You can't be... But you're just a..." She saw the symbol, "That symbol, it's a beast... No, a dragon!" Elizabeth knew and so did Artemis, the man was behind them and use his sword but the magic hit him. In a second Meliodas was standing up with his broke sword in hand, ready to end the fight.
"How can this be?" the man was talking too much.
"Meliodas? Are you really him?" Elizabeth asked.
Artemis made a comment "Hell, I know it's him, and I don't even know what's going on."
The man started talking again but no one listen. Shortly after his use his power but Meliodas sent him flying with an explosion.
"The Seven Deadly Sins: The Sin of Wrath, Meliodas the Dragon Sin!"
"So I guess this means you've found your first, right, Elizabeth? Look, about the other six... I had some business to discuss with them, so I started looking for them recently. I've been running this tavern for Intel - gathering purposes. If I had a girl to act as a draw. I'd get a lot more customers and Intel."
"Right!"
"You're coming with us, right, Airy?"
"I already agree remember, Pipsqueak."
Once again a weird thing happened... A giant green pig came from the sky and landed on the knights.
"Holy sh-!" Artemis was freaking out, again from a giant green pig and on her back was the tavern.
"How's that for timing?" Hawk yelled out to Meliodas, while dropping a rope ladder.
"Way to go, Hawk's Momma!" Meliodas praise the giant green pig.
"I was the one who got her!"
"Let's go already!" Artemis got over her shock and jump on the ladder with Meliodas who was holding Elizabeth.
"Okay lets head to the next town! Take us out of here, Hawk's momma!"
They all stand at the head of Hawk's mom they were in a comfortable silence in their own thoughts. 'This place may be weird but I'm glad to have met Meliodas, Elizabeth, and Hawk. I'll find my way back, but that will take time but I'm ok with that. After all dad is out and about and mom… I have to be there for her when she comes home. Hopefully it won't take too long but I guess I can only hope. This has definitely been the strangest day of my life or at least I think so.'
Once inside the tavern Meliodas asked some questions, "Oh I almost forgot, what's your name Airy?"
"Seriously Pipsqueak? My name's Artemis."
"Artemis, I've never heard of a name but it's really pretty." Elizabeth giggled.
"I like Airy better."
"Thanks Princess and whatever Pipsqueak."
"Um... How did you know I was Princess?"
"I didn't." Elizabeth look surprise at Artemis words, "You just look like one"
"So, where to next?" Artemis asked Meliodas. He just shrug and they continue to look at the sun through the window.
Hello again I'm sorry about making Artemis a little oc but remember she's away from her family, the pressure, and has no memory of the last six months. And I'm really sorry about my grammar and spelling please call me out if you notice any. Enjoy!
