Chapter 4
"Well, well, well, if it isn't the traitorous Holy Knight, (Y/N). You thought you got away from us, didn't you?" The Holy Knight growled at you, tightening his grip on your arm. He and both of his friends got out of their seats, while you stared up at them, terrified. You were then shoved to the ground and kicked in the stomach with a metal boot. You glance over at Meliodas, King, and Ban, and you see that all of them are now standing, obviously ready to fight. Meliodas had his broken sword, King had his spear, and Ban, who looked the most pissed off out of the three, had his hands clenched into fists.
Ban marched right up to the main Holy Knight that had kicked you, and tapped him on the shoulder." What the hell do you wan-" the Holy Knight was cut off when Ban's fist connected with the side of his face, sending him to the ground. You quickly get off of the ground and move out of the way of Ban.
"You know, I don't like seeing a bunch of men bullying an innocent little girl... Now how about you three take off, before I beat you all to death." He sneered, cracking his knuckles. The three knights stared at him for a second. One of them took a step forward, towards Ban.
"You have no right to give commands to Holy Knights, I'm afraid that we will have to put you under arrest now." He reached over to grab Ban's arm. Out of reflex, Ban quickly grabbed onto the Holy Knight's arm and flipped him over and onto the ground. The Holy Knight winced and clutched onto his arm. The third Holy Knight, who was the only one still standing, quickly took a few steps back.
"Alright, alright, we'll leave!" He said, almost in a panicked tone as he dropped down to the floor to help pick up his comrades. As soon as all three of them were standing again, they booked it out of the tavern, all of them shot a quick glare back to Ban and you before disappearing.
You let out a sigh of relief and smiled," That was a close one, right Ban?" You ask, looking up at the undead sin from behind him. He doesn't respond to you, and just stares down at the wooden floor, where the Holy Knights were just at, his firsts were still clutched tightly. You lightly tap him on the shoulder," Um, Ban? Are you alright?" You ask, slightly leaning over to be more in front of him. You notice a rather dark look in his eyes, his eyebrows were pointed down and there was a distinct frown on his face, he looked like he was about to punch something, but he still wasn't looking at you. You sigh and lightly cup your hands on both sides of his face, he blinked and the dark look disappeared from his eyes as he looked down at you," Ban, you can calm down now, they're gone and no one got hurt." You say, in a soothing way. Ban relaxes slightly, unclenching his fist.
He softly sighed then took a step back, so your hands could no longer hold onto his face. He then quickly walked out of the room and up the stairs without saying a word. You are a little taken back by this, in fact, you were a little hurt. You quickly brush it off and sit back down at the bar with Meliodas and King. Both of them look at each other then look back to you, with slightly worried expression on their faces. You notice this and give them a confused look in return," Why are you two looking at me like that?" You ask, feeling a little bit uncomfortable.
They both remain silent for a moment, finally Meliodas spoke," Has Ban ever told you about his past?" He asked quietly, you can see King visibly tense up for a moment. You shake your head and Meliodas sighs," Of course he didn't.... But there is a reason for how he became the undead sin, but it's not a happy reason." He explained, glancing back towards the stairs to make sure that Ban wasn't coming back down.
You lean onto the counter, now interested to hear about Ban's past," Please, tell me maybe then I can understand him a little better." You begged. Meliodas stared at you for a moment, as if thinking about it.
"Alright, fine. Well a long time ago, Ban was a thief, who soon fell into love." He starts.
Your heart breaks a little.
// I know you guys are gonna hate me for this, but I have to cut it off here.... Because I may or may not have completely forgot about Ban's past...
// *casually waits to be murdered*
