You were ripped from your thoughts when your bird came flying straight into the tree.

Y/n: "Duolingo what the hell?!"

Duolingo: "SORRY I was aiming for your head-"

You were often annoyed with your bird but still loved whatever... THAT is despite it being a weird green owl trying to teach you different languages.

You rolled your eyes at the bird's normal antics and got straight to the point.

Y/n: "what is it?"

Duolingo: "You have a mission at the east side village where many slayers have gone missing!"

Y/n: "That sounds like fun." you said with a sarcastic eye roll before waving off your bird.

You spent half an hour running to the village considering your stamina and strength are like no other and came to a stop at the entrance

You looked around to not find a single soul in sight but you could feel the despair and hear the quiet shuffling inside a house here and there

You knocked on doors but no response... Whatever happened it must be really bad

You sit on a nearby roof and wait for the sun to set considering most demons can't withstand sunlight

Right when the sun meets the horizon the smell of blood hits your nostrils

The sun hasn't set yet, only high-grade demons receive the sun-resisting blood.

Y/n: "Duolingo, Get Back up I think we have a 12 Kizuki on our hands!" you whisper before taking off to the scent

You make it to an alleyway and see a very gruesome scene

You see easily over 30 dead bodies of slayers in a huge pile, limps broken and twisted inhuman ways, with an occasional bone piercing the skin.

You can pretty much see what went on here just by the looks on their faces, a tear rolls down your cheek as you recognize some of the slayers as ones you trained.

???: "Don't cry unless you want a reason to."

You jerk your head around to come face to face with someone you never expected to see again.

You were at loss for words, you didn't want to fight him, and you let him get away alive year's ago because of your emotions but look what that led to...

The pile of your deceased comrades told you that you can't let him walk away alive, not a second time.

If you let him leave now only more of them will die at his hands, and you can't let that happen!

Y/n: "Hello again Tanjiro."

You reach for your sword only to have the sheath torn from your waist cutting your hand in the process

Before you can digest what happened you're on the floor lying on your back withTanjiro on top of you with your bleeding hand to his lips.

You couldn't even kick him off seeing as he was between your legs not giving you enough room to move them.

You grab hold of his shirt and use his weight against him to swap positions and now you have his hands pinned on either side of his head

You look up from his face to look for your sword

Tanjiro: "Wrong move Y/n"

You yelped as you were sent out of the alleyway with a strong kick to the ribs, landing in the dirt of the abandoned market square

Before you can get up you are pushed back down into the ground and Tanjiro is once again on top of you but this time you lie on your stomach

Tanjiro: "I missed you Y/n, Didn't you miss me too?"
