A New Flame (Sanemi x Deaf Reader)

Chapter 69

-(Y/n)'s POV-
Both of Sanemi's and I's breathing forms collided together as it made one big gust of fire. 'It looks like a fire current.' I thought to myself as I kept on guard. It made the demon back up before I noticed it was upper moon one. I slightly twisted my ankle from when I got pushed into the walls yet ignored that it continued to stand behind Sanemi and he was more of the offensive attacker.

‘This is going to be a hard battle.’

-Sanemi's POV-
I bursted into one of the side walls as I heard a lot of commotion. But the main thing that made me come through the wall was yelling, as I heard a fellow hashira yell, "GENYA!" This immediately caught my attention as I released my breathing form.

'Breath Of The Wind: Fourth Form: Rising Dust Storm.'  I didn't even notice the other hashira next to me until our breathing techniques merged into one. 'I didn't even know that was possible.' I thought to myself as I looked toward the flaming current before turning to (Y/n). 'I thought the crow said she was knocked out?!'

My guard stayed up as I heard the demon start talking. "The wind pillar and the flame pillar." He stated calmly, with a preserved presence that reminds me of that brat Tomioka. 'Can't beat on him too much. He did defeat upper moon three.' "I didn't think y'all get a replacement so fast… I seem to have miscalculated.." My attention quickly flashed from in front of me to where Muichiro was.

What state he is in right now isn't looking good. 'He needs to cover that wound.' I thought, looking at his shoulder as it had his sword plunged into it. "You got that right. I am the wind that'll rip your head off, bitch." I stated seriously, as my brother stayed lying on the floor unable to move much.

"Aniki…" He mumbled under his breath as he looked up to me, yet I ignored him for a little bit before responding. "I'm serious here. He really are one pathetic little brother. Why do you think I went as far as killing her own mother? Because I wanted to protect you!" I started firmly as I continued to stay in my almost kneeling position before standing up next to (Y/n).

My thoughts have run wild as I continue to say when I was on my mind, as I was slightly unfocused, (Y/n) was able to cover that part for me. "You should have gotten goddamn married, had some goddamn kids, and lived until you became a goddamn old geezer."

I continue to have my head down if I continue to state my mind toward my little brother, Genya. What I have been thinking for the last few years suddenly started to leak. "For all the times we couldn't do a thing for mom, all the time she couldn't do a thing for our little siblings, you should have made your goddamn wife and kids as happy as they would have been."

"Because I would have made sure that no demon would be heading your way…" I said finally becoming quiet. (Y/n) gave me a concerned look as she looked at my face, but still on guard watching the demon in front of us. Then Genya said something that shocked me. "Sorry nii-chan… I'm so sorry…"

Then I started to get angry as the upper moon in front of us started talking. "Huh… demon hunter brothers… How nostalgic…" "How dare you dice my little brother up, you fuck-eyed bastard! You're dead! Dead! Unforgivable!" I yelled before launching myself forward, preparing for an attack.

(Y/n) followed in pursuit as she was quickly behind me adjusting to what I was about to do. The upper moon sent a singular slash of rotating crescent moons toward us. I slid below the attack as (Y/n) went above it jumping to make an aerial attack.

I continued sliding as I went under the demon's fate about to cut off his foot, but before I could do anything, the upper moon backflipped, adjusting to it. 'Breath Of The Wind: First Form: Dust Whirlwind Slice.' This made a horizontal side cone pattern toward the upper moon, yet he deflected it as he made contact with my blade.

I was lucky to notice that (Y/n) didn't get caught up in my attack as she used it to propel herself forward, continuing it into her own attack. There's loud cling metal hitting each other before (Y/n) as well has been pushed away.

The upper moon had deflected her attack before backing up slightly. "Huh! Would you look at that! That is one fucking disgusting blade, am I right!?" I said before I felt an unusual energy and the breathing of the other making me dodge back preparing for a counter attack.

I was shocked at the speed as there's an uncertain amount of slashes with unpredictable rotating crescents. I was amazed at first but outside the tease around a bit to see if I can find a weak point. "Hahaha! You keep repeating those lashes without even swinging your blade."

I said slightly praising the other before connecting our blades together. Suddenly (Y/n) and I were back to back, surprising the both of us, but we used this to our advantage as we both struck toward the upper moon at the same time. 'Breath Of The Wind: Third Form: Clean Storm Wind Tree.' 'Breath Of The Flame: Second Form: Rising Scorching Sun.'

As I struck them above creating a world wind slashes around our bodies that defended the upcoming attack from the upper moon, while (Y/n) counteracted by swinging from below trying to see if we could break that sword of his. 'We fight well together as we merge our techniques quite well. Better than I have with any of the other pillars.'

"Not bad.. I see that your physical body and techniques are at their peaks. But what peaks my interest the most is that flame pillar's hands… they seem burnt. I wonder why. Usually breathing techniques shouldn't hurt the user.." He said complimenting our skill. 'I can't stop getting goosebumps at this guy's skill.' I thought, processing the information as I battle. "I also find it interesting that she is also deaf. Her eardrum seems to be severed… Interesting…"

'He can see through our movements!? Not to mention that every one of his slashes is surrounded by these little chaotic blades. And they're always changing in length and size. There's no set form. I'm not surprised Tokito lost.' I thought, deflecting some of the other attacks as (Y/n) blocked some of the attacks behind me that I couldn't.

‘Damn it, this guy’s a monster!’
