Hawk, Meliodas, and Elizabeth, were now walking in the misty forest.

Elizabeth turned around and looked at the short man, "Meliodas, are you sure one of The Seven Deadly Sins is hiding in this forest?" Elizabeth asked.

Meliodad only answer was, "Maybe."

This immediately made the pig frustrated, "You mean we came here without any solid evidence?! I've heard that there are scary monsters in this forest!"

"EEEK!" Elizabeth squealed.

"What is it Elizabeth?!" Meliodas asked in worry.

-x-

Elizabeth perked up as she felt something was wrong, she felt her butt and noticed something was missing, "Huh? Huh?"

Meliodas immediately came up to her, "What is it?"

Elizabeth eaves him off, "N-nothing at all!"

Hawk got annoyed at the two just standing there, "Come on, guys! If we dilly dally, the monsters will be on us in no time!!"

Meliodas only response, "Nobody likes an uptight pigle-" Meliodas stopped his remark as he noticed something going on with Hawk.

There  were multiple clones of Hawk, "Who you calling uptight?!"

"Huh?" All the Hawks look around, "I'm everywhere!" "What's going on?!"

Meliodas dealt with this by beating the crap out of every Hawk, which includes the real one. "He's......merciless......"  One of the Hawks says, beaten.

Elizabeth looked around in concern, "Hawk!!"

All of the Hawks got up and jumped behind Elizabeth in fright, "Waaaah!! Elizabeth!!" "Even my mom never hits me!"

Elizabeth looked behind herself as the Hawks trembled in fright, "U, wait....HawK?"

Elizabeth then noticed that some of the clones began to turn into something else. They kept changing until they took the form of herself. "It's me?"

This shocked Hawk and Meliodas as the Elizabeth clones started to try convince Meliodas and Hawk that they were the original.

Meliodas landed behind Elizabeth's with Hawk under his arm, "Now let me think, which is the real one?" Meliodas said, before dropping Hawk.

Some of the Elizabeth's turned and looked at he blonde haired man.

"I'm the real one."

"Please believe me!"

"I'll do anything to convince you!"

That last remark made Meliodas smile like a perv, "That does it! Then how about you all do exactly as I say, got it?"

All the Elizabeths nodded and this Meliodas began to order them.

Meliodas was absolutely memorized by this, "This is amazing,"

Hawk jumped onto Meliodas's arm,  "Can you just find the real one?!"

"Get out human!"

This made Hawk stiff in fear.

"On behalf of our master...."

"Meliosas, are you hurt?"

"What am I to do?"

"....We will not let you pass."

The voices Meliodas heard, made him decide to do something to solve it, "Okay, this is the last one. Jump as high as you can!"

This gave Meliodas the opportunity to strike every single clone of Elizabeth. ZASH! Every single one disappeared in a puff of smoke. And through the smoke tiny hooded creatures hopped out and began to run.

Hawk immediately noticed them, "GACK! So they're the monsters of this forest!" "The prankster goblins, aka, The Hide-And-Seekers!!"

Hide-and-Seeks are small imp-like creatures with a large bulging nose between two eyes at the sides of their head, comparatively long and large mouth, and pointed teeth. All of the imps appear to wear shoes, and a ragged cloak with a hood. The Hide-and-Seek from the Forest of Awepine wear hoods with animal ears-like shapes.

The three soon made it to where the girl was, but was surprised. Why? Because it turns out the girl was absolutely huge. "Huh?" Hawk and Elizabeth, answered.

Hope you enjoyed the chapter!!!
