Under the sakura tree [Obanai Iguro x Female reader]

What will I do now?

WARNING:
Mentions of murder

A couple of days and weeks go by, the same nightmare reoccurs every single time, revealing more body parts of the slaughtering demon. Now I realise, that I have a some sort of visual:

A tall body, pale skin, silver hair and rainbow coloured eyes with symbols in them.

When I last saw that dream, my view was all blurred - the view shifted from the demon's view, to my father's, my mother's, and shifting all over again. I could kind of see what's happening, but my view was all fogged up.

I woke up, all sweaty, but cold. I noticed, that some tears were falling down my face. Even though, I've seen this nightmare multiple times, I was all teared up after my sleep. But this time was different..

I get up from my bed, dress up, and going to search for the person, that I first thought of asking about this experience - Shinobu. Maybe she knows something?

As I rush to look for Shinobu, I run into Sanemi.

Sanemi: Hey, look where you're going, you- oh, it's you. Why are you in a rush?

Y/n: Ah, sorry, I didn't mean to, I'm looking for Shinobu. Have you seen her anywhere?

Sanemi: no, I haven't. She's probably somewhere here, who knows, maybe she's on a "secret date" with Giyu.

Y/n: Hahah, funny thing to say. Alright, I'll go look for her.

Sanemi: I can help if you want.

Y/n: Oh, thanks, but no need, I'll handle this myself. See you around!

I walk around the grounds of the butterfly estate. Flashbacks suddenly struck my mind as I'm trying to not focus on them. I can't handle them. They're overwhelming me. I fall to the ground, holding my head in my hands, heartbeat getting faster as I see the gruesome murder scene in my head. I'm suddenly feeling dizzy, and pass out.

It's all black.

A view full of darkness.

Then, every person's view from the nightmare flashes before my eyes, one by one. Very quickly. I feel, that I'm breathing heavily, sweat dripping down my cold skin as my eyes are tearing up. I can't handle this anymore. I need to wake up. I need to wake up. I need to wake up. I need to...

Darkness engulfs my mind. I hear myself breathing. Loudly. Every breath becomes even louder and louder, and-

I wake up immediately, sitting up in a bed. Lungs running out of oxygen, skin cold as ice, and tears running down my face.

Y/n *mumbling*: wha, where am I? How did I get here?

Iguro: Hey, hey, you alright? You seem very stressed. If you need, I can go get you something, just don't panic-

Y/n: Oh, no thanks, I'm alright... I'm alright...

Iguro: Are you serious? Your skin is cold as ice, you're sweating, your eyes are all bawled out. Do you have a fever or a cold?

Y/n: No no no no, I'm not sick, I'm alright.

Iguro: Are you sure?

Y/n: Do you trust me?

There's a little moment of silence between us.

I kiss him on the cheek and smile.

Y/n: I'm fine. You don't have to worry about me.

As I walk towards the door, I remember about Shinobu.

Y/n: Before I go, do you know where's Shinobu?

Iguro: I think she's in the training area with those three demon slayers that got here like a month ago.

Y/n: They're still here?

Iguro: I think so. I don't really remember.

Y/n: Alright then. Just don't worry about me, I'll be fine. Love you!

Iguro: I love you too!

I walk away with a smile on my face, as I'm going to the rehabilitation training area to find Shinobu.

As I get there, it turns out, that the three demon slayers are leaving now with Rengoku somewhere. As I see Shinobu, I run over to her.

Y/n: Hey, Shinobu. I have something to tell you.

Shinobu: Oh, hey, Y/n! Of course, you can tell me anything!

As I told her about the situation, she looks concerned.

Shinobu: Oh gosh, that's horrible. Do you maybe have some more information, so that I can identify the demon?

Y/n: Well, the demon has a tall body, pale skin, silver hair and rainbow coloured eyes with symbols in them.

She got frustrated in seconds. I think she knows who it is.

Shinobu: It's Doma. The upper-rank 2 demon of the twelve kizuki. I didn't want to talk about this, but he is an emotionless, horrible monster - he killed my sister.

Y/n: Oh gosh... I'm so sorry that happened... I didn't know that you have went through that before your own eyes...

Shinobu: It's fine... you're one of the first people that I have told this. Why did you ask about Doma..?

Y/n: Well, because of the collected information and my nightmare, I think it aligns with my family's murder... Gosh, how do I get revenge on him? What do I do now?

Shinobu: Don't worry. We'll find this out together.
