"Yuichiro!" y/n called, wandering through the forest, "Yuichiro, where are you? Nezuko?"

She paused to let out a sigh.
'I don't seem to be having any luck here.'

Y/n stood there, trying to decide on which way to search for her brother when she heard something.

She wasn't sure if she heard what she thought she heard, but bent back until her head was touching the ground anyways.

Something flew just inches above her face in a blur, it certainly would've sliced her in half if she hadn't bent backwards.

While it was quick, it wasn't too quick that y/n couldn't see it. It was another thread, this one with some kind of small flail at the end.

She remained in that position for a moment before rising, turning her head to look at the trees behind her.

"...oh."

They'd all been sliced in half by the weapon which flew through, only standing upright due to the clean cut.

Y/n looked around the clearing with curious eyes, observing the thin threads which were woven around the trees and the path before her.

They were... much more frequent here.

The h/c haired girl rubbed the back of her neck, "Mother. That's what that little brat calls you, yeah?"

It was barely noticeable, but the threads around y/n trembled ever so slightly. Whoever was using them was close enough to see and hear y/n, and they'd jolted just now.

"I can tell from your sloppy attempt to kill me. You don't really want to do this." y/n continued, projecting her voice as best she could without removing her mask, "For that reason, I'm willing to let you live. Allow me to pass by."

Noise caught y/n's attention from her right, just as a line of thread with a kama attached to the end came swinging by.

Y/n weaved past it, slicing through and causing the kama to fly off and go flying into the forest to her left.

It struck something hard, and a sharp intake of breath caught y/n's attention to her left following the noise.

The light of the moon glinted off of the blood staining y/n's mask as she turned towards the source of the noise.

'Gotcha.'

Moon Breathing, Thirteenth Form
Grazing Occultation

Y/n darted towards the source of the noise, her powerful footsteps causing the already unstable trees to lean and shift the very dangerous threads out of her path.

Her target, a young woman with long white hair and light blue eyes, flinched and immediately pulled at the threads around her in a desperate attempt to stop the inevitable.

Right as y/n entered the clearing she sat in, the woman tugged and a massive kama came to cut the masked slayer in half.

She merely changed direction, weaving from one side to the next until she was right in front of the woman.

"Found you." y/n stated and the other slayer gasped, drawing her katana and slicing at her only for her to basically disappear.

The slayer, referred to as "Mother", looked around with wide eyes just before she saw that glint of purple out of the corner of her eye.

'I'm done for...! I won't be able to move in time!' she thought in terror, squeezing her eyes shut.

There was the sound of a blade clashing against another, and y/n's blood began to boil with rage at the sight of the demon before her.
