S3 1 Swordsman Village

I arrived at the swordsman village...
for one reason.

" WHERE IS HE!!???"

The others looked to me and bowed.

" hello madam (y/n—)"

" hagnezuka!! Come out this instant! What do you mean you aren't gonna be fixing tanjiros sword? Yeah I saw the note you sent you crazy ass man! Come out! Its not like you have people lined up to do their swords."

The others sighed and looked to one another. Yet another fight among the two ... friends?

" I can't find him. Where ever he is he's hiding well.. but you."

Hawks gracefully had to show his presence and pecked my head-

" hey!"

" you should probably relax— you been so wired up since you came back- with training and even breathing techniques."

I huffed at that and walked ahead

" I can't help it... that fight with Uzui and the boys, brought back a memory I had no idea of having... ugh. It just makes me on edge.."

Hawks hummed and then stated nonchalantly.

" maybe a bath would be nice? To relax."

I hummed and then nodded.

" I suppose so... let me ask what they have around here."

Hawks looked shocked

" huh is it your first time here?"

" uh— not exactly? But I haven't really looked around the area you see. Only to beat hagnezuka!"

Despite my slowness and tiredness from the last battle I've been doing pretty good. Having Giyuu's letters kept me young. His handwriting just as formal as him.

I walked around a bit to talk to the others to see how they were doing and then eventually saw the chief and thanked him for the hospitality he was gonna give me after this conversation and went to my room where I'll be staying.

" you didn't even ask?"

" I got nervous!"

Hawks sighed at the obvious fact my socializing skills— were an issue.

" since you talk all the time maybe you should have asked."

I spat back at him annoyed changing  into a robe.

" plus , I'll eventually find it in the end so.."

Hawks sighed getting ready to fly out

" I really have to do everything myself huh— fine, I'll look around for it."

I hid my smirking face

" oh you don't have too- "

" nah it's fine.."

Oh thank god. Now I don't have to make small talk to the villagers- not that they are a problem. But when they look at you like every word is gospel— it's HARD.

I sat down to enjoy some silence, until hawks came back. All I could do was think about that memory.

" little helper.."

When I said that something fell from the end table because of the wind and I felt instant anxiety.

" .... "

Whatever that memory was. My body knew one thing. Run.

I stood up and got the thing off the floor and walked out to the city.
