It's been one week since Rengoku left on his mission. Y/N was starting to get worried. He said he would be back by his birthday. Today was the 9th of May. While Y/N was folding the clothes she heard a knock at the door. This was a light knock with a fast-moving speed. She walked up to the door and opened it.
"Hello Y/N, get on your gear and bring your sword." Her soft voice said as she looked at Y/N with a straight face. Y/N's eyes filled with horror. She knew she was the only one who was almost as good at flame breathing as Rengoku. Y/N worked with Shinobu but Rengoku taught her flare breathing just in case of an emergency.
Y/N's breathing increased as she raced to her room to grab her things. The warm air was moving in and out of her lungs as she put on her clothes and grabbed her sword. Shinobu grabbed her arm and dragged Y/N along with her. They were moving at a fast pace and that was faster than normal. The sun was down, and Y/N couldn't see anything as her eyesight was still adjusting to the moonlight.
What was happening? Is Rengoku okay? Why do I need to go with her? Y/N had thousands of thoughts running through her head. More thoughts flooded with each step she took. Some flowers had bloomed and some were still blooming. The trees rustled as they hopped from each branch.
"Shinobu, is Rengoku okay?..." Y/N spoke as Shinobu kept quiet and looked straight forward avoiding the question. In the distance, you could see different colors in the sky. Yellow, Blue, Pink, and red, The flare. Your heart rate calmed down seeing that Rengoku was okay because he was still using his flame breathing. As Y/N got closer she saw that it wasn't Rengoku's flames. It was the demon girl's flames. Y/N and shinobu landed next to tanjiro and inosuke. All the trees surrounding were ripped to shreds. Cuts and burses covered the boys. As Y/N looked forward her pupils dilated. Her face went pale and was filled with terror. Rengoku's sword was on the floor. She couldn't move, her body was still processing what was going on.
"R-Rengoku?" Y/N hesitated to say his name as the man dashed towards her. Y/N quickly pulled out her sword and sliced right through Rengoku's arm. She noticed his eyes had lost feeling. He looked lifeless almost as if he was dead.
"The beautiful lady is here!" He chuckled. His arm had grown back as so as Y/N pulled her sword away... 𝐇𝐄 𝐖𝐀𝐒 𝐀 𝐃𝐄𝐌𝐎𝐍... Tanjiro was on full guard. You could tell the boy was scared. Zenitsu was in his position ready to hit again. All the boys took in a breath and strike at the same time. Their bodies were flung away as the demon sister was running towards them. Y/N noticed Rengoku's slowdown right before he got back on his two feet. Y/N got in her fighting stance and was ready to defend the people around her. She looked at her wedding ring shining in the light that was reflecting from the moon. She felt sorrow in herself.
"YOU CAN'T KILL ME," Rengoku yelled at Y/N and she knew it was true. She loved him too much to let him die in her arms. Y/N took a breath in, and flames surrounded her. The tree branches and leaves rustled harshly as the two were getting ready to fight. At full speed, they bulleted towards each other. The sword was into Rengoku's head, but she was avoiding his neck. She was so hurt to see him in this state. Shinobu ran to cut his neck, but he used his hand as a covering.
What was the reasoning for this? All those mornings you woke up to see him next to you. All the different types of foods you made him. The things he would say to keep you in a happy state had gone down the drain. His clothes were torn to shreds but his wedding ring was untouched. He still had that smile on his face. You missed it but now it was different. This one sent chills down your spine. Butterflies swarmed the area as Shinobu got a hit into Rengoku causing one of his arms to turn purple and swell up. Y/N got in another hit in his leg, but Rengoku grabbed the sword and crushed it. At this point, the sun had almost risen. His yellow hair with red tips had shorted. When he wasn't looking you went to go help the boy's get up as the Shinobu stalled Rengoku. You had a short conversation with the three boys to make a plan with them.
Y/N grabbed Rengoku's sword and ran into a tree. she hid in one as Tanjiro, Nezuko, Inosuke, and Zenitsu were getting ready to attack all at once. Y/N was not ready to lose him. She loved him so much. She wasn't sure if she could do this. Before she knew it, they had struck. She jumped from the tree branch changing her breathing style and tightening the grip on his sword. He turned over to see Y/N coming at him, but he didn't move. He just stared at her. He had the chance to stop what was about to happen. Y/N kept her eyes open as she felt the sword hit his throat and cut through his bone. She stopped and looked over her shoulder to see Rengoku's headless body. She dropped his sword and ran to him. She held him in her arms as she felt warm droplets of water roll down her cheeks.
"I love you." She heard him say while placing one of his hands on her cheek. She could feel the cold wedding ring on her face. The sun had started to rise.
"I love you so much. Please don't do this to me... Don't leave... You can't... 𝐏𝐋𝐄𝐀𝐒𝐄. 𝐈𝐍𝐄𝐄𝐃𝐘𝐎𝐔!" Y/N screamed at him. He put a smile on his face as he looked at the sun then looked back at Y/N.
"It's my birthday... So, you have to make me a big cake..." He said to her as he started to fade away.
"Remember that I will always love you." He said to her.
"I love you too. Happy birthday, I will make the cake for you I promise." Y/N said to him while placing one of her hands on his... but all she could feel was her cheek. She heard his wedding ring fall onto one of the flowers on the floor. As she looked down, she could see his clothes in her arms but not him. She grabbed the empty clothes and hugged them. Then she let out an ear-splitting scream full of sadness and pain. The sounds of her scream filled the forest. As she cried out his name the sun rose on her. The light caused both of their wedding rings to reflect light. Tanjiro was standing behind her as tears started to form. He fell to his knees and couldn't stop crying as he watched Y/N getting eaten by the sorrow of losing the man she loved the most. Zenitsu stood over Inosuke as he looked down at the ground weeping. Shinobu was looking over to Y/N as she could feel herself cry. Y/N couldn't realize that he was gone. He was never coming back. He never got the cake he wanted. She said one more thing to him.
