Yue gently turned her body to not wake up the boy that was holding her to look at the window. Her heart stopped and she stiffened as she saw a demon sitting on the window sill. The demon was pink with orange markings, sharp blue piercing eyes. He smirked as he saw Yue noticed him.

"Hmm so Akaza-San was right..Kyojuro is alive"
~~~~~
Yue bloody body laid on the ground of the now destroyed bedroom. Her back was against the wall, her head laid on the ground as her front side faced Kyojuro who was across the room laying on his stomach with blood dripping from him, his sword was a couple feet away from him. Kyojuro crow was the first to sense the demon and left already to alert the other Hashira's. Yue vision was blurry but she could see Kyojuro struggling to crawl over to her as the demon stood in front of her. This demon... he was an Upper Moon. Much more power and strength than Akaza which is why he was able to injure the two. He had to be the Upper Moon one but, it wasn't Kokushibo so who the hell was this demon and how did he have so much power.

"Muzan-sama is going to be so proud when I kill you deary" he teased crouching down to the girl and placed his finger under her chin and lifted her head up so she looked at him.

"W-who are you?" She stuttered as the blood from her stomach wound poured out.

"I'm Hiro.. and I'm Muzan-sama son, I'm the Upper Moon 0 meaning I'm the most powerful Upper Moon" the demon smirked and Yue eyes widen.

'That's why he's so powerful! He's the heir to the demon king' (Hiro and Upper Moon 0 is completely made up by me)

"G-get your hands off her" Kyojuro muttered as he tried to get up but failed to do so.

"Look at how weak this Hashira is.. I thought he would've been more powerful if he was able to make Akaza struggle but I guess not" Hiro said as he kicked Kyojuro so he skirted a couple feet back.

"Kyojuro!" Yue yelled as she stumbled up to her feet.

"I'm going to kill you" she growled as Hiro laughed. His movements were quick. Before she could do anything he grabbed Yue and threw her to the ground.

"Shut up and watch me kill this Hashira" Hiro laughed as vines extended from his stomach. The demons eyes glowed as he sent the vines in Kyojuro direction.

"No" Yue whispered as her legs took control of her. She climbed to her feet and ran in front of Kyojuro.

"Yue!" Yue gasped and coughed up blood as the vine went through her stomach. The sharp thorn's attached to the vine pierced her insides and she screamed slightly as he slowly pulled the vine out and she fell to her ground.

"Yue!" Kyojuro said grabbing the girl and turning her so she faced him.

"K-Kyo" she whispered and saw Kyojuro eyes darken. He clenched his fist as he grabbed his sword and stood up.

"Give up now Hashira! You can't beat me!" Hiro said.

"Maybe I can't.. but they can" Kyojuro said as Gyomei, Sanemi, Tengen, Muichiro and Giyuu rushed into the room.

"We got you're message from your crow Rengoku-San" Sanemi said.

"Let's finish him off flamboyantly" Tengen smirked as the 5 kept the demon busy, Kyojuro tied a rag to her stomach and grabbed Yue and ran out of the house and down the pathway towards the butterfly estate.

"K-Kyo"

"Stop talking Yue, we're almost at the butterfly estate" Kyojuro shushed Yue. He didn't care if he had life threatening injuries as well. His main priority was to save Yue. His hands were completely covered in her blood and even his attempt to tie a rag to her stomach didn't slow down her bleeding. His bleeding was getting worse too, he knew one of his lungs was ruptured making it very hard for him to breath.

"Kyojuro.. I'm not going to make it" she whispered as she felt her life draining her.

"Stop talking like that Yue. I'm going to save you no matter what" Kyojuro said as he ran faster. He wasn't an idiot, he knew she wouldn't be alive by the time he made it to the estate. He stumbled slightly as his footsteps slowed down and he eventually came to a stop in the middle of the pathway.

He collapsed to his knees holding onto Yue tightly. She placed a shaky hand up to his cheek and rubbed it.

"You.. you promised me you wouldn't leave me" Kyojuro whispered as a single tear fell down his face.

"I'm sorry Kyo" she whispered and he could feel her body starting to get cold.

"Why did you do that? Why did you jump in front of me?"

"T-to save you Kyo.. can you do me a favor?"

"Anything for you Pretty Girl"

"Live" she whispered and went limp in his arms.

"Yue" Kyojuro shook her but got no reaction.

"Yue" Kyojuro repeated as more tears fell down his cheek.

"Yue!" He yelled shaking her softly.

"D-don't leave me.. please open your eyes" he whispered as he pulled her body closer to him and nuzzled his face into her shoulder blade.

"Please don't leave me"

He sat in the middle of the field on his knees hugging the girl body. His injuries were getting worse as well, he knew if he just sat there he would bleed out but he was out of energy that he couldn't move.

"I-I'm sorry Yue.. I don't think I can fulfill your favor" he whispered to her as his grip loosened around her. He felt lightheaded, he knew he wouldn't make it much longer.

That's were the five male Hashira's found Kyojuro hours later after they defeated the demon. The five sustained minor injuries but nothing too bad as Hiro couldn't deflect all of their attacks at once.

"Rengoku-San" Tengen said approaching the flame Hashira. Yue body laid limp in his arms, blood all around the two, Giyuu approached the two and saw the two unconscious, he placed a hand to Kyojuro neck, his neck was cold and he had no heartbeat, same for Yue.

"They're gone"
