Classy's pov:

'No,no, noooo my body is falling apart and disappearing! And I can't stop it!!'

I look over to the demon, only half of his head really remains... Tanji slides his sword away and mine disappears back to the wind

' Damit! The face of these demon slayers is the last thing i'm ever going to see'

I hate being able to read demon's thoughts....it's morbid

Tanji looks over to the demon....clear sadness and care in his eyes I sigh

'I never would of thought it would come to this...'

Then suddenly it's as if I can see another side to the story one with a darker fate...

I hear sniffles as if it was happening at the same time as not.....

And my vision flashes again to the past only this time I know I'm seeing memories

'I'm so scared...I'm all alone now...Brother,where are you? *hic* I want you to hold my hand again...

Like you always do.....'

My vision clears for a second.....demons......were humans once?....my eyes soften Tanji starts to walk towards what is left of this corrupted soul....

'Why...?Why did I do it....Why would I eat my own big brother!?" The voice echoes in my head flashes of what used to be a little boy cloud my vision...

'Huh? I had a brother...? I had forgotten...' I can't really tell who is speaking anymore...but I'm guessing we are back to the present... My vision returns leaving only the voice surrounding my thoughts to roam

Tanji walks over to the hand staring at it... sympathy....that's the feeling I sense from him...

What the demon did was wrong, but...

I walk over standing beside tanji, because I have sympathy too....even if most would say I shouldn't...

"What a sad scent" tanji says I nod

Then Tanji grabs onto the demons hand squeezing only a little, in a way to comfort him.....I do the same

"Rest in peace..." I whisper "I'm sorry things turned out as they did...." The demon then squeezes back, like I siad a nice squeeze making sure we're actually there

Tears fill the demons eyes tanji brings the hand to his forehead "please god...help him..." I nod my thumb making small circles on the demon's palm "he just needs a little guidance..." I say softly

"The next time this man is re-born...please don't let him turn into a demon again..." Tanji says and I nod a image appearing in my head that makes me smile softly

'Brother! Brother! Wait up! Can you please hold my hand?'

'You scaredy-cat you're hopeless you know?' His brother says playfully
And that's the last thing the echoes through my mind as I see him and his brother walk towards a dimly lit house

Everything around me returning to the present as the demon finally fades a peace coming around his soul

I look up and so does tanji....then we see them..all the children he has killed

'Sabito, Makomo, and the others whose life's were taken by this demon...it's over you can rest now...'I nod looking down tanji always thinks the right things

I whisper one last thing 'make sure to say goodbye to everyone you love...and join the ones that may have already passed on'

Sabi gets up jumping off the boulder everyone slowly leaving makomo still standing where she was...
