~Chapter 38~Under Attack~
~Elizabeth's Pov~
I seemed to had been knocked out. It was as if I was floating in a dark red space. All I was able to feel was pure utter pain on my right side. I was able to hear muffled shouting. I was able to hear the sounds of weapons clashing, people screaming, children crying, explosions. There was so much being able to hear. That was when I heard my own name being called. It was from Elaine. I soon was able to see once again, I was able to see the sky covered in dull grey clouds. The pain at my right side was getting even worse.
"ELIZABETH!" I heard Elaine scream as I was unable to move. I was struggling to breathe. Elaine was calling my name over and over as I heard the chuckle of a certain male. Hendrickson. "GET THE FUCK AWAY FROM HER!" I heard Ban shout as Elaine's voice stopped. Elaine. That was when I heard Elaine being chocked, I was able to hear her struggling to breathe. Ban was shouting threats toward Hendrickson as there were explosions nearby. That was when Ban brought up Meliodas and the fact he would be heading straight here.
"The Captain of The Seven Deadly Sins is busy dealing with the Demon Clan army at this moment. He doesn't have the time to save this little fairy" Hendrickson spoke as I forced my head to move. First thing I saw was blood. Blood all up my right side. It was growing bigger by the second. The walls of the room were destroyed as there was a huge cut in the ground right next to me. I was hit by one of their attacks. My eyes then moved to see Hendrickson throwing Elaine onto the ground. Ban was being forced to stay down by another human male.
The unknown was wearing a red armour that had a spike on each shoulder. He had light brown hair that went to his shoulder and light purple eyes. In his right hand was a long sword. He kept cutting Ban in half every so often to keep him from moving. "You bastards" Ban nearly shouted as I noticed Elaine was struggling to breathe even after when Hendrickson let her go. I knew I had to move but I was able to feel how deep my wound was. It was a serious wound, it should've killed me by now with how deep it really was.
"Now we have a Princess to take" Hendrickson spoke turning around looking at me. I was still struggling to breathe and was still unable to move. Hendrickson only chuckled moving toward me. "The fact she is alive after taking that hit is impressive" the unknown spoke as Hendrickson nodded in agreement. I noticed blood on the sword in Hendrickson's hand. Must've been mine. "She won't be alive much longer though Dreyfus" Hendrickson spoke as the unknown sighed. Dreyfus. That name was familiar.
My eyes moved to Elaine. Her breathing was a worse state than my own. "She still is even is able to think and move slightly" Hendrickson spoke moving his hand about to bend down and grab hold of me until a green vine was wrapped around his arm pulling him away from me. Elaine was slowly getting to her feet as the vine was pulling Hendrickson. "Elaine, get out of here already!" Ban nearly shouted in pure fear and worry. Dreyfus was watching as Hendrickson turned his head to face Elaine.
"Still able to stand?" he asked as I noticed that Elaine was covered in cuts, bruises and blood. She was badly hurt. Dreyfus cut Ban in half again before moving away from him and toward Elaine himself. "You are wasting to much time on a wingless Fairy" Dreyfus spoke as Hendrickson laughed. Both were ready to attack her. I was just able to move my left hand up slightly, hovering above the ground. Elaine was struggling to stay on her feet. I had to help them. I couldn't stay as the weakness of the group.
Out of nowhere, I felt a rush go through my body. A golden glow coming from Elaine and Ban. Hendrickson and Dreyfus both moved their heads toward me. "The Goddess still can heal them?" Dreyfus nearly shouted in shock as Ban was Dreyfus, attacking him with Courechouse. Hendrickson went to attack Ban until Elaine's vine went through his chest. Blood bursting to the ground as Elaine was rushing to my side. "Elizabeth, hang in there" she spoke worried, making unknown flowers grow next to her.
My arm dropped down to the ground as I saw Ban was keeping both Dreyfus and Hendrickson busy. My whole body felt cold and heavy. "ELAINE!" Ban shouted as her eyes widen. Gilthunder was behind her, swinging his sword. My own eyes widen in shock. He wasn't there a single second ago. Elaine was hit badly sending her flying to the edge. This place was what was left of what seemed Camelot's castle tower. I was unable to speak or move. Ban was shouted Elaine's name rushing over to her as the two Holy Knights were able to catch their breaths.
Camelot was under attack badly. We were under attack also. "Gilthunder, deal with the Sin of Greed" Hendrickson ordered as Gilthunder's sword had blue lightning coming off it. Hendrickson and Dreyfus were both next to me in a second. Dreyfus was reminding Hendrickson that they needed me alive. Alive huh? I was struggling to stay alive. Dreyfus was putting his sword away into a scrab on his belt before picking me up in a princess hold. As he picked me up, more blood came out my wound.
Gilthunder soon informed the two men that someone was heading our way. Someone powerful. I noticed a dark purple glow coming from Hendrickson's chest. That was when I noticed he looked different. His hair was more well-combed and slightly longer, his goatee was gone as with his shirt missing I was able to see black demon markings all over him. One of his eyes had turn black. "Demon Blood, you truly did drink it" Dreyfus spoke looking at Hendrickson who only smirked saying with Demon Blood he was stronger than Meliodas.
Gilthunder closed his eyes looking away. He looked annoyed and upset. "Should I go ahead and deliver the Princess?" Dreyfus soon asked as Hendrickson was looking toward his sword. A wild smirk planted on his face. It scared me slightly knowing he had drunk Demon Blood. Memories from before, I knew that a Human, Fairy or Gaint drink the blood of a Demon, they become filled with power but with bloodlust, hate and rage. "I wish Meliodas was here to see his beloved be near death once again" Hendrickson spoke with a laugh.
