"Y/n! Get up" a familiar voice spoke out as you felt someone shaking your arm, you had fluttered your eyes open and you saw who was shaking you "Rai?" You questioned as you sat up from your bed.

"Did you forget what date it is?" Rai asked as she eyed you "No?" You replied, "It's yours and mom's birthday, let's go to the garden" Rai spoke out as she stood up "I'll wait for you so hurry up and get dressed," Rai said as she left your room. Both you and your mother shared a birthday.

You did as she asked you brushed through your hair, folded your bed and put it in the corner of your room and lastly you went to change out of your yukata and put on your kimono. "I'm done!..." You yelled out as you stepped out of your room "Oh" you mumbled, realizing Rai sat outside of your room, waiting for you.

"Let's go," Rai said as she stood up from the floor "Kay" you mumbled as you followed her out of your home, the two of you walked in silence towards your family garden. The two of you found yourself standing in front of the pond within the garden.

The two of you watched the fish in the pond swim away and to one another, it was peaceful but the feeling of being here before was eating you up inside.

"Y/n" Rai spoke out "Hmm" you hummed as you looked up at her, she was standing in front of you "If you look at the water hard enough you can see what's going on in the real world" Rai spoke out. "What?" You questioned, "I want you to come find me when you wake up, it doesn't matter if it's today, tomorrow or weeks from now come and find me" she spoke out "So, please don't die," Rai said as she turned around and gave you a closed-eyed smile.

Your eyes widen at the sight of her, her appearance had changed entirely she looked tired and her skin was much paler than before, she had large eyebags and heavy wrinkles. She had looked so different.

"I wanted you to heal and... I wanted to talk to you, now that you're all healed I'm going to wake you up now," Rai said as she looked forward, you could hear the cracking in her voice.

"Wait what do you mean?! Where are you!? What happened to you!?" You yelled you had so much to ask her but before you knew it everything went dark and the sound of fighting and the scent of blood filled your nose.

You opened your eyes and you sat up.

"Inosuke!!" Someone yelled

You turned your head towards the voice and your eyes widened Gyutaro had one of his sickled punctured through Inosuke's heart, Daki had both Zenitsu and Tanjiro wrapped in her sash. "Man, this is all you guys had? Weak" Gyutaro scoffed as he shook his sickle causing it to slip out of Inosuke, Inosuke fell to the ground.

You scooted behind some of the fallen pieces of an apartment to hide 'Wheres Uzui-san!?' You thought as panic began to flood over you, you frantically looked around and you soon spotted him, Uzui laid on a piece of concrete, he was unconscious.

'I need to heal him' you thought as you crawled behind some debris, trying not to catch the attention of the two demons. "Shit" you whispered as you come to a stop, there was no more debris for you to crawl behind now it was just an open field. 'I have to make a run for it you thought' as you went onto one knee and placed both of your hands onto the ground.

You took a breath in and then kicking off you ran towards Uzui, you ran as fast as you could "Look! There she is!!" The female demon yelled as she pointed towards you. You had arrived at Uzui's limp body and placed your hands onto his bare skin.

You began to heal him.

When suddenly you felt the wind pushing against your back, Gyutaro was in the air right behind you, you glanced behind you and saw him preparing his blade to strike at you. You closed your eyes preparing for what was about to come but it never happened, his blades didn't pierce your skin at all.
