Bar

A group of people were sitting in a bar where they seemed to be conversing about what to do. Of course, these people were the Sins that were planning their next moves. Meliodas had informed them on who the Ten Commandments were.

Right now not every sin was present since Ban went on his way after feeling guilty for trying to kill his best friend. The plan the sins had made were simple first they would get Meliodas his powers back. And after that, they would try to find their last members Escanor and Jax. While they were speaking of this someone suddenly opened the door. Everyone was on high alert yet when they saw who was entering the bar they started to smile.

There he stood the youngest member of the group and the one every sin was worried about. Jax was standing in the all too familiar boar hat with Rose behind him. A smile plaster across his face he announced that he was back. Every single sin stood up and gave a hug to the young man.

In the whole bar, everyone seemed happy except one person. Elizabeth looked at the young man with disgust. She was still disgusted at the actions that he did. He was a ruthless person and not befitting of being Meliodas his adopted son. Yet who cared about her? No one Jax ignored her whole presence it was as if she was not even there.

After the hugs, the group started to converse about what Jax was doing and why he suddenly left. He didn't tell anyone when he left only Elizabeth. Jax just smiled while he told everyone, "my mind wasn't right at that moment. It just felt that I needed to leave and take a break" he said while feeling awkward from telling the truth.

Merlin smiled she saw Jax as her own son and for that she cared for him. With care she asked him "did it help" she didn't expect Jax to suddenly full on smile. She knew him well and normally he wouldn't smile that hard. Jax said while smiling "yes it helped me" and then he turned to Rose.

She was maybe the biggest thing that influenced him. And the trip was worthwhile because of her. Merlin and Meliodas noticed this slight movement and look and both smiled.

Happy that their adoptive son had found someone he may be interested in.

Merlin smiled while she looked towards Rose observing her in the meantime. She had to admit that her adoptive son truly found a beautiful woman. She was someone that deserved Jax is what Merlin thought. "Who is this Jax" Merin asked just a second later. While smiling Jax introduced Rose to the Sins that were present. Every single Sin properly greeted her and introduced themselves.

After a good mood, it suddenly turned a bit more serious. The smiling look on Meliodas face was replaced with a rather serious look. "You felt it too didn't you" Jax had seated himself at a chair while he looked at Meliodas. "They are here aren't they" every single person knew who Jax meant with 'they'. A sigh was released from Meliodas he was feeling complicated with this adoptive son of his.

He would have to fight his own birth father without reason. Something he didn't want him to experience. As if Jax could read his mind he spoke: "don't worry about me."

With a shocked expression, Meliodas turned his head to the chair his son was sitting at. Casually and calm was how the man looked as if what was happening wasn't important.

"You know dad I know Zeldris my real father is part of them," Jax said with a slight pause. "But back when I was young I promised to protect the Kingdom of Lionnes a promise I will not break." A reminiscing expression was on Jax's face when he thought back to the day he made that promise.

"If I have to fight my birth father so be it. I decided to protect those that I want so as soon as he threatens them I would fight him. I don't know what he is like or what their plans are. But I'm certain of one thing." Jax suddenly smiled while looking at every sin in the room.

"I'm thankful to all of you. You guys are my family" a big smile was on Jax's face while he said this.
