  Name's pov
   After the brothers left, I snuck into Akira's room. The stench of blood did not go unnoticed and the room had zero sunlight reaching it.
       I saw a few broken teeth and shattered bones, all my suspicions were confirmed. I left her room quietly.
     How barbaric, absolutely disgusting. How I yearned to sink my blade into Akira's flesh, stab her repeatedly, cause her endless pain and give her the worst death imaginable.
    
Fucking demons. Causing endless misery to unfortunate souls
. 
       But in a way, we humans are our own demons. We are wicked to one another, we hurt each other. But there is some good in this beautiful world that is slowly rotting
.
       Demons were once human, did they go through hardship? I wonder

      But at the end of struggle, there is a reward. The afterlife is there,for those who didn't receive their reward on earth.

     But when they turn demons, they don't receive reward, for they too cause others pain. Though, they are not at fault, the king of demons is to blame.

     How wonderful life would have been if he didn't exist. People would come, endure and go. The natural cycle would flow effortlessly.

     Muzan Kibutsuji, your name will cease to exist one day, I will make sure of it. Even if I die, I hope in the next life, I kill you along with your demonic minions, and send you to the depths of hell, where you belong.

     You cheat death and others pay the price, you must have not been this way when you were human. But that is no excuse, for I shall make sure your downfall.
      And if you make me a demon, I will kill myself by walking in the sun, for I do not want to cause others pain.
    Or gladly give the demon slayers the honor of beheading me.

     ....................🌷🌷🌷.................

     I made my way to go give a musical performance for the customers arriving.
     As I strummed my instrument, pour my heart out as I sang and earning a few lovestruck looks from people, I felt like something wasn't right.
     I felt like I was needed elsewhere, somebody was dying and I'm not running to find them.
      'No worries Name, the brothers will take care of it' I reassured myself trying to give me no reason to worry.
     Oh God, I was dead wrong. From where I sat, blood seeped through the ceiling and landed on my forehead.
  
     " Damn it" I cursed lowly knowing there must be demon activity.
        A demon who looked like Oiran Sora came crashing but luckily, I moved out of the way.
      She resembled Akira in a way. Maybe Akira was using her as her way of escaping without attention being drawn to her.

    "Demon!" an elderly woman screamed as everyone began to panic and run, like zebras being chased by a pride of lions.
      I took out my stiletto pins and tried to stab the demon but I missed.
      She smelt the wisteria poison and ran out of the building, a wrong move on my part since chaos would give her the opportunity to hide.

      The brothers saw me from the roof they were sitting on and took out their swords running towards the demons direction.
       I chased after it jumping on the rooftop so I could attack from above.
    "Looks like we got our demon" Yoriichi said as he jumped down to attack.
   "Wait, I think.." I didn't finish as the two were now hellbent on finishing this demon.
     For a newly transformed demon, Sora was fast. I got the upper hand when she was cornered and decided to stab her when I saw Akira watching from a short distance before changing into a man.
    Muzan...
Was all that came in mind that I didn't notice when Sora unleashed her blood demon art.
  " Blood demon art; icicle tunnel" she said as my feet froze. Frost making its  way to cover my being.
    The only thing I saw was Yoriichi beheading Sora as my feet began to fade.
    My world turning dark as my heart beat slowed. I felt dead and alive all at the same time.

    ...................🌷🌷🌷................

  Yoriichi's pov,
As Michi and I were watching the people from the roof, we saw Name chasing a demon with her poison tipped stilettos.
     Michi and I swung into action trying our best to behead the demon who was surprisingly fast. She looked exactly like how Name described and we tried our best to behead it.
     Though it was difficult since people were running about, panicking, causing complete chaos. It was finally cornered and Name came from above to finish it when she faltered a bit as the demon released her blood demon art.
       Name began turning to ice as I beheaded it. By the time I could turn to try and help her, she had faded to nothing but snow dust. Sparkling remains turning to nothing.

   ........................🌷🌷🌷..............
     "What did you do to her?" Michi questioned the demon angryly.
     "She is an ice statue know, somewhere in the coldest mountains of Japan." the demon answered feeling guilty.
    That was my first time seeing such a thing.
    "Why are you crying?" I asked the demon who was slowly fading.
    "Name was sweet, I was turned into a demon by another. And I have devoured a person and froze" she said and wailed.
    "Try searching the snowy mountains. Maybe her body might be there, frozen. If you find her, let her thaw in the sun" she said softly.
    "If she's alive, tell her Sora says she's sorry, I never meant to cause her harm. I should have let her poison me" the pale demon said before closing her eyes with a smile, fading to ash but didn't smell like smoke, instead, she smelt like fresh rain"
     "Liar, I will wipe out your kind" Michikatsu yelled as he cried. I too, cried as I tried to comfort him.
   
     It was sad to think that the ray of light in our lives had disappeared. We rooted all the great times we had with Name.
    As we went to the estate, the news of Name being gone spread like wildfire. When we told them what the demon said, they all went to search.
     We searched for many days, weeks, months and a whole year.
     After a fruitless search, we had to admit Name was gone forever. At least we could meet her in the afterlife. How I yearned for her.
    Michikatsu had been so depressed but moved on with his life, well, his immortal life.
     He had become a demon after unlocking his demon slayer mark, and had abandoned his wife and children.
        I had to leave the demon slayer corps because everyone was angry that I had allowed him to become one.
     
      .....................🌷🌷🌷..........

    I was supposed to die at 25, but here I am, at age 38 walking on the icy mountain.
     I continued walking till I stumbled on something. I dug the object and saw it was Name, still frozen. I hugged her frozen form, ecstatic to find her body after 15years.
       I took her body to my home and left her body to thaw in the sun. I sat outside watching her thaw as I read a book and eventually fell asleep.

    "Yoriichi!?" I heard a voice call. I saw Name alive but shivering so I got her a blanket.
    "Name, take it easy" I told her as I gave her some freshly brewed tea.
    "What happened? I only remember turning to ice and you slaying the demon and why do you look older?"she questioned as she sipped her tea.
    I narrated everything to her as the words sank in her head.
        "That would mean I'm 36 in a 21 year old's body" she said blankly.
     "I'm so sorry Yori, for everything you've been through" she told me sympathetically as she drank her tea contently.
     "Don't be, it's not your fault" I told her as I hugged her from behind.
       "You know, nothing lasts forever, so let's make the most of it" Name said as she rested her hand on mine.
      "Sure thing, at least we have each other" I whispered in her ear.
      "Though I see you loved Michi a lot" I added as she sighed.
    "Not anymore, he chose to be a demon. The same creatures we dedicated our lives to fight." she said monotonously with some burning anger.
     "I can't love someone who kills and eats people. Yoriichi, you're a symbol of hope, I hope someday you and I can cleanse the world of demons" she said before she nuzzled in close.
      "Please, kiss me so I can remember this" she added as she looked at me.
    
     I held her chin and brought it up so I could kiss her. It was soft, gentle and passionate.
      It was like we were communicating without words, just pure emotion. I wish we could have remained like this.
     We broke apart before she looked into my eyes, her eyes begging for more than just a kiss. We needed each other.
       I carried her inside before we made love to each other, enjoying each other's warmed and companionship.

    Am feeling really lazy updating and I will be going to school soon.
