The Sleep Hashira || Reader Insert ||

Prologue

L/n chan had always enjoyed sleeping, only waking up for around two hours a day. When sleeping she would hide when she slept, most of the time in a cupboard. One day Y/n chan woke up to an unusual smell.

She hoped down from the cupboard she was sleeping in to only be greeted with silence. She walked to the front door to see a sight she wished she didn't.

Blood splattered the walls, the blood led to bodies, three bodies. Her mother, her father, and older sister. She screamed in horror as their organs had been eaten out of the stomach. The corpses were fresh and she then heard footsteps walking through the door frame which was ripped off.

A male with black longish hair, blue eyes and a katana entered the room. The man's eyes looked sympathetic but his body showed no signs of sorrow.

"I'm sorry, but a demon has killed your family," The man's words hit L/n chan. She started tearing up at the news.

"You should move into the city, it's dangerous to live alone in an isolated area." He spoke codly. Y/n chan only nodded still with fresh tears in her eyes.

As he was about to leave Y/n chan spoke up, "Why do you have a katana?"

"I'm a demon slayer, I kill demons like the one that killed your family. The katana is the only thing that can kill demons, they only die if you chop their head off," He started. "We train with special techniques which then gives us breathing techniques, we use the techniques to kill the demons, as demons have powers called blood demon art. My technique is water breathing. We officially become a demon slayer if we pass the final selection" The man explained.

"How would I train?" L/n chan asked.

"You need a katana." The slayer answered.

"Could you give me a katana?" The sentence caught the slayer off guard but he just nodded. "I Will be here if you come to give me one, I Will most likely be sleeping in that cupboard." L/n chan pointed to the cupboard in the corner of the home. The man nodded and left.

A few weeks later.

A knock could be heard from the newly fixed door, L/n chan was meditating on the floor until she was disrupted by the knock. For the past few weeks Y/n chan spent most her time meditating or sleeping, she hadn't been eating so she needed her energy.

L/n chan stood up and walked to the door and opened it slightly, she peeked through the crack to see the slayer with a belt and katana.

Y/n chan fully opened the door to let the man in. "By the way, I never caught your name," L/n chan stated.

"Tomioka Giyuu, and you are?" Tomioka kun gestured to Y/n.

"L/n Y/n!" Y/n chan smiled, Tomioka kun held out the belt and katana. "Thanks Tomioka sama!" Y/n chan thanked. Tomioka kun only nodded in response.

After some light conversation Tomioka kun left Y/n to herself. L/n chan sat back down on the ground and meditated and chanted the words 'sleep' or 'float'.
