"No message today ^^!"


THE FAINT NOISE of wind whistling through the trees and heavy breathing was the only thing being heard. the timid girl felt two pairs of eyes on her, but it felt like everyone on earth had their attention placed on her. she hated the feeling; her hands twitched and her knees felt like watered down jello.


"speak to me!" the demon yelled out once more. his eyes were crazed and a wide grin grew on to his face. "i know what you are.. i know what you can do!" the small demon was excited, excited because when he tells his master what he had found, he will get rewarded and praised for his discovery. he couldn't wait to see the pleased look on his face.


tanjiro didn't know what to do. it was too much at once, but the caring male knew he had to act fast to protect the girl who was now targeted by the demon. he felt useless, though he was also thinking about the words spitting from the sick demon's mouth.


'dear ancestors, i'm ready to be with you now, please.' the girl pleaded silently in her head. her blade felt too heavy for her to hold as her ice covered hand made it hard for her to let go of the handle. the ice only traveled to the blade handle too, making it difficult for her to release it.


that familiar cold shiver went down her spine. the girl was now debating if slaying demons until this era is over was really the job she wanted to have. 'my ancestors, i said i'm ready.' she felt the adrenaline weighing her body down and the only thing she could do was chant prayers to protect herself and the kamado siblings.


the eerie silence made the plum haired boy suck in a deep breath. his friend was terrified, he could smell the fear radiating off of her and he could also tell by the way her body shook with anxiety. "leave her alone!" he shouted, stepping in front of her with his broken sword in hand. her eyes widened at his bravery. he shouted at the demon as if he didn't have much to protect himself.


a deadly glint was replaced in the demon's eyes, his lips curled into a scowl. "you have no use to me, boy. don't tell me what to do." his eyebrows furrowed with anger before more spider webs shot from his finger tips, purposefully avoiding the fear filled girl and aiming for tanjiro who kept dodging the attacks.


[name] couldn't do much to help the poor boy. everytime she would move to cut the webs, another web would appear to attack him at the same time. it was a game of cat and mouse; she knew the demon could've easily did something to harm tanjiro but she was the obstacle in the way.


this time, a large web sprouted from his fingers. this one was bigger than the petty string of webs he was throwing out. she felt a shiver travel down her spine, slowing down her movements and her red haired companion stared with pathetic eyes.


the web seemed to be aiming for them in slow motion, but it was far from slow. [name] closed her eyes tightly, holding her ice covered blade in a defense position hoping it'll somewhat protect the duo.


as she held her stance, a puff of wind caused her clothes to move and her body shiver once more. she was hesitant to open her eyes, curious as to why she didn't feel an ounce of pain yet. "..huh?" her lips parted and her eyebrows furrowed in confusion.


standing in front of her was nezuko. even from her pov, [name] could tell the girl was trembling with both anger and from the cuts that was pierced through her pale skin. the (skin shade) girl was impressed with her quickness and honestly forgot that she was with tanjiro this entire time, sleeping the whole way.


"nezuko!" tanjiro cried, rushing towards the girl. her limbs were on the verge on falling off because she wasnt regenerating fast enough and it scared them both. the demon girl wasn't focused on herself though, her pink eyes was filled with rage as she kept eye contact with the other demon that was only a few feet away from them. she hated the way he stared at [name], like she was some type of meat to be feasted on.


as the worried brother tried to keep his sister from falling apart, [name] kept her attention on her hands. the natural frown on her lips were more noticeable while she brought her ice covered hand closer to her face. 'this is.. real ice.' the girl trapped her bottom lip between her teeth once she felt it wobble in fear.


being trapped in her mind, she let out a loud yelp as soon as she felt something wrap around her ankles before pulling her body upwards. "'the fuck!" was her automatic response. everything in her view now was upside down and it was making her dizzy. her arms waved around crazily, freaking out with her current position.


the smartest thing to do is stop and try to think of something reasonable to do, but it was hard to think when blood was rushing to her head. she was about 15-20 feet above the hard ground and she couldn't analyze things correctly, the main reason why she was freaking out.


"keep moving and i'll break your leg." the small demon threatened. she then felt the web wrapped around her ankle slowly twist in another direction, causing her leg to follow. the girl groaned at the minimum pain it caused, pausing her actions after realizing he wasn't kidding.


nezuko growled lowly and chomped down on the bamboo muzzle, her sharp teeth almost breaking through the item. if it wasn't for tanjiro trying to reassure everything was soon to be fine, [name] was sure the demon girl would've went feral already.


her sight began to become blurry, black spots appearing from the sides on her vision. she tried shaking her head to refocus, but that only made everything worse. she felt so useless having tanjiro and his sister fight on their own, she so badly wanted to help the siblings. [name] knew she would black out sooner or later, it wasn't something she could avoid on her own.


she took in long, deep breaths as she felt her heartbeat slow down and her body temperature drop, cold air releasing from her nostrils each time she breathed out. only this time, the ice that was only presented on her hands traveled quicker. it reached down to her elbows and she groaned weakly at the uncomfortable feeling.


the last thing she saw was her dark red haired friend rushing towards the demon at full speed while letting out a war cry, nezuko not too far behind.
