Chapter 24

The light flowed in your veins, once again repleting your body with shocking power. You didn't know if you wanted to stop this time.

Diane's breasts continued to keep you in a tight grasp. The battle was back on the ground but everything remained shaky and havoc.

"What do I do?" you mumbled. You clenched your hands, and watched as the glow slowly weakened. You were violently thrown backwards by a huge force to the very back of Diane's breast valley. Your head rang from the impact. You squeezed in deeper, scared and confused.

Everything stopped. Not silent, but no movement.

What happened?!

You decided to investigate, cautiously looking out from under the bow. You were careful to steadily examine your surroundings.

Diane was lying on the soft grass, almost on the verge of unconsciousness. You spotted Merlin and Guila still fighting of in the distance. Diane seemed to be thrown out.

"D-Diane!" you called with worry. You climbed out of your hiding place. You were still invisible due to the height of the grass. You ran towards her face and brushed a petite hand across her cheek.

Her eyes fluttered open, and her violet eyes immediately filled with confusion and frustration.

"(Y/N)! What are you doing? Get back in!" Diane said, picking you up with a huge hand.

"B-But...because of me, you were almost knocked out! I..I should just hide somewhere else...please!" you begged.

She blinked and shook her head.

"How much longer are we gonna stay like this?" you asked. "We can just change.."

Diane bit her lip and started to think with precision. "Probably..two more minutes?" she answered with hesitance.

"Then...we'll get dressed with that time!"

The match between Merlin and Guila caught Diane's eye once more. She looked at you, then heaved a huge sigh.

"This is stupid. But fine, let's..wait." (I agree with Diane T ^ T)

You recklessly put on the Boar Hat outfit while Diane ran out onto the field with her regular orange jumpsuit on. Your normal sizes now belonged to the appropriate human. Despite this, all you could do was hide and wait.

Your heart still couldn't control itself as you hid behind the little protection of trees and bushes. You stared at the remaining brawls. Lots of ground smoke disappeared into the air. You could see the strings of magic and the attacks between sin and holy knight.

Should I help?

NO

But I feel completely useless..

That's how it's supposed to be.

Will they react to my powers?..

Maybe.

Questions and debates swirled in your mind. Finally, the answer was clear. You shouldn't be another obstacle, another burden and another thing to worry about. The best you could do was stay safe. Hide. Watch. Listen.

Suddenly, a body scraped against the ground right next to you. You gasped and backed away, not sure if it was an enemy or ally.

You looked closer and noticed it was Meliodas. He tried lifting his weight with his bruised elbows. His shirt was completely worn off and dirt covered his skin. All of his injuries quickly disappeared from a golden light.

E-Elizabeth..

"Meliodas!" you called, running to him. He gazed up at you as he stood up.

"(Y/N)! You're not safe here, run!" he ordered, holding your arms with his warm hands. You rejected the command and frowned.

"I'm so useless, stubborn. I can't just leave you!"

Meliodas cupped your cheek and looked into your eyes. Your heart skipped beats as his stare made your stomach fill up with a tepid feeling.

"(Y/N), you're capable of something, that I know. But please, run! I can't lose another loved one!" Melodies begged, keeping a stern face.

Tears began to fill your eyes, but you held back the dramatic emotions.

"O-Okay, but do me a favor.."

He stared at you to hear the rest of your words.

You masked your doubt with a serious expression. "Get rid of them."

Meliodas modded and forced a smile. And with that, you ran off into the confusing maze of the forest, not stopping till all the commotion drained away. Not stopping until everything was silent. Until your lungs burned and the sounds of snapping twigs and branches were all you could hear. Until your legs grew weak and you could no longer fight the urge to keep running.

You collapsed on the ground and breathed in huge amounts of air. You leaned on the trunk of a tree that was in the middle of a small meadow. You didn't know how far you were from the Boar Hat, but you hoped to see everyone soon. All you could do was stay alert of your milieu.

You stared up into the sky and sighed.

Please be okay....
