"F/n!" Inosuke yelled, "did you get stabbed!?". "I'm okay.." F/n said, wincing from the pain. "You need to kill this thing, the eyes are going to start regrowing. I'll cut them while you kill this thing" she said.

"Are you sure, you shouldn't strain yourself" Tanjiro said, F/n just smiled. "I'll be okay, I can stop the bleeding with my breathing" She assured him. "Let's go kill this thing!" Inosuke yelled as him and Tanjiro jumped up. F/n took a deep breath in.

Breath of Moon, Eleventh form: Drilling Slashes, Eleven Consecutive Strikes!

F/n flew up, while Tanjiro and Inosuke were cutting the tinnier tentacle looking pieces of flesh, she began striking the pillars that had eyes. She closed her eyes, so she wouldn't fall asleep, and slashed each pillars many times.

She saw as Tanjiro went up to deliver the final blow, killing the demon, taking the train with it. "Tanjiro! Inosuke! Get off the train! It's going to derail!" F/n yelled. They flew off the train, Tanjiro making a harsh landing, rolling many times.

"Tanjiro-Kun!" F/n screamed, she landed next to him, grasping the wound on her stomach. Tanjiro sat up, he seemed to have broken some ribs and a shard of the train pierced through his arm. "I'm okay, are you?" Tanjiro asked, referring to her wound.

"I'll be okay.." F/n said, her hands bloody mess. "I need to stop the bleeding, go find the others" F/n told him. F/n fell limp into his arms, "I cant leave you!" He yelled. "I said I'll be fine, please go find the others" F/n told him.

Reluctantly, he nodded, laying F/n on her back and running off. F/n thought for a moment, thought about the training she went through with her grandfather. She started her recovery breathing, closing the blood vessel that tore. She definitely wouldn't be able to move for a while.

"F/n-Senpai!" she heard a voice yell in the distance, "Yui! Stop running! You have a huge cut on your leg!". Yui ran up to F/n, Zenitsu by her side. "F/n-Senpai! Are you okay?!" She asked giving F/n a hug. "I'm okay, are the passengers alright?" F/n asked. "Yes! Rengoku-Sama and Tanjiro-Senpai got them all out!" Yui beamed.

F/n smiled, "that's good.." she said softly. "Where's Inosuke?" F/n asked. "He should be here with Rengoku-Sama and Tanjiro-San any moment" Zenitsu said.

Soon enough, he was. Rengoku and Tanjiro close by him. "Are you alright F/n!" Rengoku asked, "I see you've stopped the bleeding with your breathing! Well done!" Rengoku said with a smile. "Thank you" F/n said.

Their moment was cut short when F/n felt a powerful demonic presence. She looked to where the vibrations were coming from, and saw a muscular demon with pink hair and a bunch of line markings over his body. Upper rank three! F/n thought, what's he doing here! Why now!.

Rengoku stood up, and drew his katana. The demon flew at them, but instead of going for Rengoku, he swung his fists at F/n. But before he made contact with her, Rengoku sliced his arm.

"That's a fine sword" he said, licking the blood off his arm once it healed. "I cant understand why you would go after a wounded person first" Rengoku said. F/n turned her body to look at the demon.

"Because she could get in the way of the chitchat, of you and me" He said with an evil grin. "What would you and I have to talk about. I just met you and I already don't like you" Rengoku said, raising his katana.

"Is that right? Well, I loathe weak humans, too" He laughed, F/n gritted her teeth. "The sight of a weakling makes my skin crawl." The demon said.

"Then it looks like our senses of value are completely different" Rengoku scowled. "Alright, then I have a brilliant proposal. Why don't you become a demon?"  He said. "I can tell your strength at a glance. It's wasted on a defective human body like yours. If you become a demon you can become stronger forever. Without growing old and frail. It's truly a great deal" the demon said with a laugh.

"I will not." Rengoku said flatly. "I see.." The demon said angrily. He planted his feat and took a fighting stance.

"Technique Development...destructive death... compass needle."

The area around the demon seemed to take the form of a snowflake, lighting up blue. The demon smirked as Rengoku raised his blade. "If you won't become a demon, I'll kill you. Remember me as the demon who killed the Flame Hashira, the names Akaza!"

They both launched at each other, F/n couldn't follow their movements they were so fast. They all wished they could help, but they couldn't find way to get into the fight. They were too fast.

They all watched helplessly as Rengoku fought the Upper moon. Rengoku seemed to be getting the upper hand, but Akaza was able to land a blow on Rengoku, his fist piercing through Rengokus chest.
"Rengoku-San!" Tanjiro yelled.

Akaza tried to get Rengoku to turn into a demon again, but he still refused. Rengoku swung his sword, akazas hand still in his chest. His blade made contact with Akazas neck. Akaza tried to punch Rengoku, but he stopped his punch.

Akaza saw as the sun started to rise, and he tried to pull his hand out of Rengoku, only to find that it was stuck. Tanjiro ran towards his sword and started running towards Akaza and Rengoku.

But it was no use, Akaza ripped off his own arms and ran towards the forest, barley escaping the sunlight. Tanjiro ran towards the forest, Tanjiro threw his sword after Akaza. "Don't run away you coward!" Tanjiro yelled.

"the demon slayer corps is alway fighting in the dark of night! Where you have the advantage! That's right! Us flesh and blood humans! Our wounds don't close up that easily! We cannot regenerate our limbs one lost! Don't run away you bastard! You coward! Rengokus the one who won! Rengoku's way more amazing than you!"

Tanjiro fell to the ground, and started sobbing loudly. "Tanjiro-Kun...please stop yelling.." F/n said softly, tears brimming her eyes. She's never seen Tanjiro this angry before.

"Come over here.." Rengoku said. "Rengoku-San.." Tanjiro said quietly. "Let's talk a bit..one last time.." Rengoku said. Tanjiro got up and walked over to him.

"There's something i remembered..while I was dreaming. You should go to my parents home, the Rengoku resistance. There should be some notes, left by the preceding Flame Hashira. My father read them often, but I never did, since I don't know what's in them. There might be some record of that Hinokami Kagura dance you talked about."

"Rengoku..! Please don't talk anymore! Please stop the bleeding with a breathing technique!" Tanjiro pleaded with him.

"I'll be dead soon, I can't stop the bleeding now. But I'll going to tell you all I can while I can still talk, so listen, will you? Tell my little brother Senjuro..to follow his heart.. and walk down the path that he feels right..tell my father, that I want him to take care of himself. One more thing..I believe in your little sister, I saw her protecting humans who were  bleeding. Anyone who protects humans against demons, are demons slayers. I accept her as an official member of the Demon slayer Corps."

Tanjiro bowed his head, tears falling down onto to the dirt. "I have something to ask..." Rengoku said softly. Tanjiro looked up, "Young kamado, become the next Hashira, representing the Demon Slayer Corps. I believe in you, I believe in all of you." He said. "I'll try my hardest Rengoku-San!" Tanjiro said and bowed.

Rengoku placed his hand on Tanjiros head, "look at me" Rengoku said. Tanjiro raised his head and looked at Rengoku, who now had tears falling down his face. "No matter how hard life gets, no matter how many times you get knocked down. Always fight back, never give up, and Young Kamado..."

"Set your heart ablaze.."
