"But Miss Isabelle is so nice................." You say trailing off. She didn't want you there you realize.

"She is a good actor," Ray says bitterly.
"And I assume that you don't trust the others and X had a tough day," you say. They nod.

"You know how to kill demons right?" Emma asks. You nod. "Can you teach us?"

"It took me years of training and we don't have that kind of time," you say. Emma looks downtrodden.

"I just want to save everyone," Emma tells you quietly. You give her a sympathetic look. You know how it feels to be helpless and yet wants to save everyone. No one could save everyone. You pat Emma's back.

"You can never save everyone, Emma. There are some people I wish I could save but I was too weak or I didn't get there in time," you say. Emma looks up at you with her big green eyes, hugs you, and starts crying into your shoulder. You aren't used to touching people so you pause a moment before you hug the younger girl.  

"Everything is going to be just fine, Emma. We are going to save everyone,"

In a room, deep in the house, Daki's belt wraps around Hibiki's arms, legs, waist, and mouth. 

"So you are the daughter of a hashira, cause you were so easy to take down! I hope the others are stronger. I learned all about you and I know you have a crush on Y/N, so why don't I kill her in front of you or you can tell me about the hashira's weaknesses," Daki says walking around Hibiki. Hibiki's face shows that she would anything for Y/N. Daki smiles.

"So you are going to talk?" she asks. Hibiki nods and Daki unwraps her belt from around Hibiki's mouth. 

"I'll tell you whatever you want to know,"
