"Doma!!" screamed Shinobu, her face red and rage-filled. "How dare you claim the lives of more innocent people! Especially my older sister that you just brutally killed!!" Shinobu's face had veins all over and her eyes were dead set on the demon that killed her sister. In an instant, before Doma could process what was going on all of the women in front of Doma vanished into thin air. Shinobu gathered all of them to the front of the room where she entered and closed the door.

"Why hello fellow demon slayer!" Doma said with joy in his voice. Doma laid eyes on Shinobu, those damn rainbow eyes were irresistible to even Shinobu since she was taken aback by the beauty. "It appears you recognize me. How quaint! Let me just search through my memory to see why you look so familiar." Doma stuck his right index finger out and stabbed into right into his brain, after some digging he finally figured it out. "Oh yes! That beauty of that sister of yours! She was so tasty!" Shinobu had enough of Doma's games and grabbed her cloak with rage and started to concentrate on her breathing. As soon as Shinobu pulled out her sword, Doma pulled out two golden fans that looked razor sharp and began to twirl around with them in a very flamboyant way.

"Dance of the Bee Sting: True Flutter" Shinobu yelled and dashed directly at Doma at an alarming speed, Doma was so taken aback by this that it took him a quarter of a second delay to respond to Shinobu's attack and deflected the attack with his fan. "Oh wow! That was quite an impressive speed! I admire you for it." said Doma with affection in his voice and did a counterattack. "Blood Demon Art: Frozen Lotus" the air in front of Doma was razor sharp Shinobu quickly dashed backward to avoid the razor-sharp icicles Doma formed.

"Damn, I can barely get close to him, or else he immediately does a counterattack. This is bad" said Shinobu to herself and even though she still laid eyes on Doma, he disappeared in an instant and appeared right behind Shinobu completely shocked by the speed. She could feel the air drawing close to her waist as one of Doma's fans is closing the distance fast and leaped away with some of her cloak being cut off. "Dance of the Dragonfly: Compound Eye Hexagon" yelled Shinobu and yet again Shinobu's speed was astounding to Doma. Doma was quickly able to parry all of her attacks, but one fatal misstep led Doma to get stabbed in the hand and dosed with Shinobu's poison.

"Oh, dear... that poison is pretty strong I got to say... oh well!" Doma said confidently as the spot he got stabbed quickly regenerated and adapted to the poison. Shinobu was shook seeing that was some of the strongest wisteria poison she made, but if she were to stab at his neck then surely she can kill him. Shinobu got ready for her fastest attack yet and tensed her body "Dance of the Centipede: Hundred-Legged Zigzag" she hopped so incredibly fast that even Doma was confused about where she was going to land next. Unfortunately, Doma adapted to Shinobu's speed at this point so that he could predict where she would land next and in the next millisecond Doma launched forward and slashed Shinobu across the body with deep cuts. Even Shinobu's fastest attack was too slow for Doma.

"Don't be ashamed that you lost dear Demon Slayer!" Doma said with lust in his voice, for you can live for eternity if you enter my body! Doma approached Shinobu slowly and since her wounds were so deep she could barely move and quickly collapsed on the floor. Doma was right in front of Shinobu and started to digest her. As soon as Doma started to digest her, Kanao and Inosuke stumbled into the room because of all the racket and saw the horrifying sight of upper moon 2 devouring a hashira with ease. Inosuke was freaked out by the whole situation, but Kanoe was furious and wanted to attack Doma, but was too scared to engage because of his high rank.

"Ah, that was delicious!" Doma said with pride and a huge smile on his face. The two other demon slayers were furious with what just happened and both launched forward with their own attacks. Doma snarked at them and in an instant moved a little to the left and both members were astonished by his movement speed. "Hey! What the hell was that?! How were you able to move so fast like that? It's almost like you're magic or something!" Inosuke yelled in his usual demeanor and took another glance at his opponent. Kanao was more observant of her opponent and realized that Doma had a huge ego and wanted to chip away at it so her plan can go according to plan.

"Doma! You do realize that Shinobu's blood is filled with wisteria poison and you'll die because of it." Doma's attitude did not change at all and even seemed like he got some pleasure out of the information Kanao was giving him. "All of those women you ate for your stupid cult shows that you're weak. You couldn't be bothered getting your nutrients from demon slayers like every other demon to exist. What kind of a monster are you?" Doma's demeanor changed and in what seemed like a completely different person said "You know, out of all my years of being a demon, not once have I encountered someone as irritable as you. Out of all of the women I've encountered, I have never laid eyes on such a disrespectful young lady." Kanao looked Doma straight in the eyes and just muttered "I hate you" Doma dashed forward to both of them and slashed in the air repeatedly, Kanao readied her body and uttered.

"Flower Breathing, Second Form: Honorable Shadow Plum" the flurry of attacks deflected Doma's oncoming attacks and sent Doma flying back at foot. Both Kanao and Inosuke were at the ready before one more truth bomb was dropped. "You," Doma said pointing to Inosuke. "You look quite familiar.... why yes, that's right! I knew you since you were a little baby!" Inosuke was confused and angered at the same time and Doma finally said "Your mother took residency at my temple and took a liking to her, I wanted to keep her there until she grew old and died on her own... but she abandoned me! So I tracked her down in the woods and dropped you off a cliff hoping you would survive... LOOK WHERE YOU ARE NOW!" Doma yelled with glee and Inosuke shed a tear with full sadness. Doma quickly got himself ready for Kanao's and Inosuke's attacks since this was not just about a battle eliminating all demons, this was a battle about past trauma, and Inosuke and Kanao readied themselves for the most enduring fight of their lives.
