Just so you know, dood, this takes place in Season 2, Episode 3, when Gowther is first revealed to be a doll. Sorry for the rocky beginning, I wasn't quite sure how to start this story, dood.

"Gowther, do you realize what you've done?"

Meliodas, the Dragon sin of Wrath was… not exactly happy with his fellow sin, Gowther.

Gowther had erased Guila, a Holy Knight's, memories of her little brother Zeal, and created new memories of himself and Guila being in a relationship together, just to attempt to understand what 'Love' was. Once Diane had found out, she and Gowther had got in a fight, and destroyed part of the town, all because of one of Gowther's experiments.

Gowther was curled up in a ball, leaning against the side of a building. If he had emotions, no doubt he would be crying.

"Lock me up." Gowther muttered quietly.

"What?" Meliodas asked, not sure if Gowther had said something.

"Lock me up, far away from everyone else." Gowther repeated, slightly louder.

"And hurry, before I am no longer myself."


Gowther stared off into the distance, in the direction Guila and Zeal had gone, as if in a trance.

"What's all this commotion?"

Gowther, Merlin, Meliodas, and the few others who were with them looked up. Standing on top of a rock, mask on, and with a sword in his hand, was Slader, from the Roars of Dawn.

"Perfect timing," Called up Merlin. "I need a favor."

"Yeah, right." Meliodas laughed. "He ignores any orders that come from someone other than the king."

Slader dropped down on to the ground by Merlin. Bowing, he said, "Your wish is my command."

"You really don't have to do that," Meliodas murmured in Slader's ear "Does Merlin have some sort of dirt on you?" He asked.

"Don't be silly." Slader raised his head slightly. "I witnessed her sheer power firsthand, and saw how she saved the king, and I must say, it amazed me!"

Slader leaned towards Merlin.

"Please, allow me the honor of calling you elder sister." He asked eagerly.

"Call me whatever you want," Merlin replied.

"Elder sister, what is it you require me to do?"

"Gowther? Come over here for a moment." Merlin called out to the pink-haired man. Gowther snapped out of his trance, and walked over to Merlin and the others.

Merlin extended her hand out to Gowther, and called out, "Absolute Cancel."

Gowther was engulfed in a pink light, then began to shrink. He disappeared inside of the clothes he had been wearing moments ago.

The others stepped back in shock, but Merlin simply bent down, and extracted a small figure from the pile of clothes that was now on the floor.

"The magical power used on Gowther is extremely powerful, you see. I've reverted him back to his original form, but it is only temporary."

Merlin held up he hands, and the others gasped as they saw what was in her hands. A small doll, with pale white skin, lifeless amber eyes covered with small reading glasses, and magenta hair was curled up in her hands.

"Original form? No matter how you look at it, he's…" Slader trailed off, still not quite sure what he was seeing."

"That's right. Gowther was created by a great magician long ago." Merlin confirmed.

"He's a doll. Slader, please look after him while we're away on our mission." Merlin extended her hands out toward Slader, passing the doll to him.

"O-of course, elder sister…" Slader said, tucking the doll into his glove.


"Hey Captain, did you know? About Gowther, I mean."

"Nope! Just found out today!" Meliodas replied to Diane.

The sins, along with Slader, were all sitting inside the Boar Hat, discussing the information they had just learned.

He turned to look at Slader, who was sitting at a table with Gowther propped up next to him.

"Hey Slader?" Meliodas called. "You sure you're okay with taking care of Gowther? I mean, if you would rather not, we could take him. We are his teammates, after all."

Slader shook his head. "Thank you for the offer, but I would rather take care of him myself. Elder sister entrusted me with this job, and I do not want to disappoint her."

Meliodas shrugged. "Fine by me, just keep him safe will ya?"

Slader nodded. "I will. If you need me, I will be at the capital. The king has requested that I come and help hold back the demons attacking there." With that, he walked out, Gowther once again tucked into his glove, with no clue about the crazy adventure he was about to go on.
