With a yawn, F/n arose from her futon. Hobbling over to her mirror. She ran a brush through her long black and white hair, while humming a soft melody. Her sisters always made fun of the way she looked, her sisters all had dark hair and dark eyes. F/n had Black and white hair and black and white eyes. She looked more like her grandfather than anything else, they both shared the unusual coloring.

When she was done, she put her hair into a neat ponytail and put on her favorite hairpin. When she was finished she put on her lavender colored kimono and went to greet her parents.
As usual, her father was complaining about the townspeople, her sisters were fussing over their looks and her mother was sitting eating steamed rice with a closed eye smile on her face, listening. F/n would always try and finish her breakfast quickly, she loved going into town to see him.
Once she finished she thanked her mother for the meal and headed into town.

"Goodness, that girl is always in a rush to leave this house" Her father said, he had his hand on his chin and seemed to be thinking. "Miyoko, take your sisters and follow her. I want to know what she's doing" He ordered.
"Of course father".

F/n found her usual spot and opened her book, this one was a romance novel, her favorite genre. It was about a commoner man who fell in love with the princess who had an arranged marriage.
"Ohayo, F/n-San!" a familiar voice called out in the distance. She looked up from her book and made eye contact with the boy. Oh how she loved his Ruby colored eyes. He walked over to her and plopped down beside her.

"A new book today I see? What's it about!" The boy asked. He always sounded so interested with what she was reading. "It's about two forbidden lovers.." F/n said. Her voice was soft and soothing, like an angel. "Sounds like a good book!" He beamed, a big smile stretched across his face. Oh how she loved his smile.

"Would her majesty like to accompany me on my quest to sell all of this fine charcoal" he said in a Nobel tone. F/n looked confused, "I'm not a princess..?"  She told him. He just laughed and grabbed her hand, "are you sure? You're definitely beautiful enough to be one" he said with another one of his warm smiles. F/n felt a blush creep on her face. He'd always say things like that to her, she loved every second of it.

Miyoko, Rinka and Fumika were all watching around a corner. Rinka snickered to herself, "oh father is going to love this!" . "Who would've thought the perfect little F/n L/n was hanging out with some commoner boy" Miyoko giggled. "He's awfully ugly, F/n's waisting her beauty on that!?" Fumika sneered. "Let's go tell father, F/n is so done for" Rinka ordered, and they all walked away.

Later that night, all six of them were around the dinner table, chatting and eating. As usual F/n stayed quiet, all she thought about was Tanjiro.
Her thoughts were interrupted by Rinka, who stood up and started speaking. "Father, you're not going to believe this." Rinka giggled. F/n always thought she sounded like a snake, same goes for the rest of her sisters. "Me Fumika and Miyoko saw F/n hanging around some ugly commoner boy, such a waste of beauty if you ask me" Rinka declared. F/n felt her blood start to boil.

"F/n, dear. Why are you going into town just for that, there are plenty of wealthy boys in town who would love to be with you." Her father said, his voice stern. F/n shrugged as she looked down. 
Her father hated when she didn't respond with words, "F/n" he said, his voice getting louder.
"F/n I will not allow this disrespectful attitude continue any longer, if you will not respond I will simply forbid you from seeing that boy".

This made F/n angry, angrier than she's ever been. She slammed her hands on the table and looked her father dead in the eye. "You will not do that!" she yelled. "Young Lady! You have no right to yell at me like that! That's it, you will never see that boy again!" Her father boomed.

F/n felt her heart shatter as her eyes brimmed with tears. She ran from the table into her room, and locked the door. She carefully took out her hairpin and changed from her kimono, she put a few things into a bag and leaped from her balcony on to the soft grass below. After, she hopped the fence and ran into town. It was practically empty now, except for a few stray cats.

She ran to the edge of town, the part where Tanjiro usually came from to deliver charcoal. She laid against a wall and waited, waited until daybreak, but Tanjiro never came. She waited all day, waiting to see those eyes and that smile once again. But he never came down the mountain.

After nightfall was upon her again, she decided to sleep by the creek. No way was she going back home. After a few days of waiting for him, she heard some people talking about a family on the mountain that was attacked by demons. F/n knew it was Tanjiros.

Her sadness soon became anger the more and more she thought about it. Demons...they took him away from her, the only person who she felt safe with. She clenched her fists as angry tears streamed down her face. "I will kill every single demon!" She screamed "I will slaughter whoever took him away from me!".

"F/n time to get up!" A voice hollered. F/n shot up from her bed. She held her head and groaned, why am I remembering that now? She reluctantly got up and brushed through her hair, putting it up in a neat ponytail. "Todays the day.." F/n said to herself in the mirror, "the day my skills will be put to the test". She put on her black and white haori her grandfather made for her and grabbed her katana. Today was the day of the final selection, where she would possibly become a member of the Demon Slayer Corps.

She walked out of her room and greeted her grandfather, "Ohayo" she said, her voice soft and angelic. "Ohayo F/n" her grandfather replied. "Are you prepared for today?" He asked, his tone had a hint of worry. "I'll be just fine, i was very lucky to have your training. There's no way I'll die, I promise I'll come home to you" F/n assured her grandfather, putting her hand on his. He gave her a warm smile and nodded.
F/n left her town to become a swordsman, she went to live with her grandfather and learned Moon Breathing. A breathing style created as an alternate to Sun Breathing by her great ancestors. She'd been able to almost master Moon Breathing, and today she would finally be able to test her skills and knowledge.

F/n waved to her grandfather, "make sure to come back in one piece!" He hollered. F/n smiled and ran off, her destination was Fujikasane Mountain. A place where Wisteria flowers bloomed all year round, locking in demons that were caught by the Demon Slayers.

A smirk rose on F/n's face as she reached the top of the mountain, there were lots of people there. She sat down and began to meditate, she did this a lot before she would have to use her breathing. She needed to clear her mind to prevent mistakes, she wanted to get every movement perfect.

While she was meditating, she felt a vibration through the ground. Another person showed up, she thought. She opened her eyes to see who it was.
She almost choked on her saliva when she saw him. He looked exactly like Tanjiro. She shook her head, "Tanjiro was killed 2 years ago.." she muttered to herself. But she couldn't help but stare at him.
