Like it or not these new disturbing Holy Knights have taken Ban as a prisoner for five years and who knows what the they could have done to him.
Sigh
"Okay Meliodas, let's go get his butt out and grab the others"

Mastering Yourself is True Power

"Whaaa – thanks Eri – chan! Knew I could count on you!" Meliodas winked cutely as if she wouldn't even say no in the first place. Well, he ain't wrong in that aspect.
"No problem, Mel" Eris sighed softly and stared good – naturedly at Meliodas who is at this point akin to a brother, her little…. big brother in any case. She reminisced fondly at all the times Mel caused trouble, often she would have to be the one to step in and clean up his mess. No matter how it ends up in a ridiculous situation, cause that is how flawed his common sense was during those times. Sometimes can't read the mood at all. But….. this is all she can do to repay her saviour, when he saved her from being at lowest point in this world. Sadly being from another world and reincarnating isn't what is cracked up to be….
AHHHHHH! MONSTER!
STAY AWAY FROM MY CHILD!
GO AWAY!
THE LIVING CORPSE MOVES!
Blinking back from the memories, those dark days were really the worst part of her new life but luckily she has moved on from that part of her life now. Although Eris always feels the echoes of the past. Without the help of Meliodas and his merry bunch she wouldn't know what to do currently. Speaking of now its been some time she can repay back their help especially by focusing on the mission at hand. That is to get Ban out of Baste prison and to gather the rest of the sins to reclaim their honor.
"Great then!" Meliodas said as he broke her out from her reverie. "I will go back and tell the news to my companions! Be right back!" he yelled as he turned away and seemingly vanished infront of her.
Looks like Mel ran back at mach speed from where he was thrown from, Eris looked at her home that has been with her throughout the years. 'Man, just got it back into shape too. Shame'. Eris brought up her hand and blue glowing magic runes erupted from the center of her palm. Forming into several rings of runes that intersect each other. Faster as the naked eye can see, it compressed into a small circular form and morphed into a purple bead. It had the chinese character of storage [貯蔵] placed in the center. Eris threw it up on top of the house and the effect of the bead exploded into fine purple mist casting down on the surrounding area. The blanket of smoke continued to billow for about two minutes till it revealed that the house vanished, along with the tombstone, a portion of the fields and the watermill.
"Yosh" Eris moved forwards to pick up the magic spell bead from the ground where the house one stood and absorbed it back into her body. 'That takes care of the housing problem then'. Eris snapped her fingers and the golems appeared waiting on her orders.
"Well guys, it seems like we won't be getting a break any time soon with Mel in action" Eris stated as if it should be sad, or something to lament about, but the golems knew she was always a thrill seeker. Because in actuality her actions belied her words, example was the way she is currently grinning from ear to ear. Excitement radiating off her form, she dismissed her golems with a swipe of her hands, immediately the five standing crumbled away into dust and in the distance she sees what seems like a big lime green four – legged being wearing a ….. after some squinting.. a hat? Huh? Wonder what Meliodas got himself into all this time.
Shaking her head from left to right in exasperation. She closed her eyes and tried to pick up something with her senses. Waiting…. until something pinged in her senses, she opened her eyes and looked across the fields. Something…. or someone for that matter is approaching at her direction in a form of a dust cloud in a fast rate. Undertsanding what is to come she stood her ground in preparation for what's coming – Diane's welcoming that is.
"OOOOOOOOOOI ~~~ ERI – CHAN! Long time no – OOPS!" Diane said as she tried to stop her running, taking bits off from the earth creating deep trenches in the soil, she started to skid and thankfully stopped nearly a centimeter away from my face and her shin. Catching her breath, she crouched down to look closer at me and smiled at my figure. Her shadow casting a cool shade on her person from the day's sun.
"Yo~ Diane – chan! Glad to see you up and running about, pun intended" unfazed, Eris looked up to Diane and jovially greeted back in return. As Diane picked her up and placed her on her palm. She talked about her adventures during the past years while she was separated from the rest and while living at the Forest of White Dreams.
Looking from this angle Diane hasn't really changed much either. With her orange jumpsuit, twin pigtails swaying in the wind from her animated story telling, bright brown eyes, one blue glove, and strangely not holding onto her sacred treasure – Gideon. The question was on the top her tongue, she was about to ask until she heard a weird noise nearby.
"PUGOHHHH" snorted something suddenly behind her with white stream of mists blowing all over her. Eris calmly stood in place even if her hair got thrown towards her face by the large beast's heavy breathing. Momentarily blinded by her own hair she slowly tucked it back into place and turned around about to ask what – but her eyes widened only to meet two big dark nostrils.
Eh?
"Ohh Hawk Mama, you are the best! You were able to reached Diane in no time at all" remarked Meliodas from on top of the being. As soon as Diane saw Meliodas, she immediately swooned and squealed, thus crushing her to Diane's chest, struggling to get some air into her lungs, She used one of her rune magic special gear four: shrinking (收缩). The moment it was activated Diane didn't realized that her friend disappeared and suddenly grew big with a mysterious blue smoke covering her form one meter away and on the ground.
"Same old Diane" sweatdropped Eris as she fixed up her dress from further creasing from Diane's tight grip and swiftly moved to the side from being stomped on by Diane's fangirling over Mel. Now that's done, She looked up and saw a mysterious figure atop Hawk Mama standing besides her dear old friend. 'Wonder who that person is? Could that be the one Mel is introducing her to?'
From the looks of it after sharpening her visual sensory, the figure has a shaped of a young lady with silvery light spunned hair and wearing skimpy bar clothing? Quite an odd choice of clothes. As she continued to stare at her, something is tingling at the back of her brain. Almost as if she knew her from somewhere.
'She looks familiar. Where has she seen her before?'
