-Himejima’s POV-
I sat there for a moment of silence before speaking again, yes it was more like a vow. "I'll defeat Muzan, no matter what. And then I'll be along… Be at peace. Rest." With that I closed his eyes sitting there in a moment of silence before getting shocked by the scream of the wind pillar.

-Sanemi's POV-
"Aaaaaagh! What's happening to him!? Dammit!! His body..! His body is crumbling like he's a demon!! Shit! Shit!!" I yelled as tears started to flow from my eyes as I couldn't control them anymore. He then started talking to me as I leaned forward slightly to hear what he was saying.

"Big.. bro.." "You're alright! I'll figure something out! Nemi's going to figure something out!" I yelled in a panic before looking around slightly before going back to his face. "Nemi… I'm sorry… Back then.. I blamed you.. I'm sorry I was just a pain…" I got upset and I started to yell again, but not really toward anybody. "You were never a pain! Never! Don't die! You can't die before me!"

I put my hands on his face as it started to crumble. "Thanks for watching out.. for me.." I interrupted as I said angry with myself. "You call this watching out for you! You stupid bastard!" At this point I was sobbing, as the warm tears flooded from my eyes onto the ground before me. "You've had a really hard time… I want you to be.. happy.."

"I don't want you to die yet… Neither does.. (Y/n).. I could tell… she loved you… Because my Nemi… is.. the nicest.. person ever.." Genya finally said as the last piece of him crumbled away, as the only thing left of him were his clothing.

"I'm begging you, god! Please! Please! Don't take him too! (Y/n)'s not *sobs* here anymore either!" I yelled, as I continued to scream out for my brother. I then heard a voice behind me and noticed it was the stone pillar. "Shinazugawa… we have to move… raise your head this isn't over until Muzan is defeated…"

With that I got up, but not turning around fully until I heard a groan. 'Who!?' I looked over at the stone pillar noticing it wasn't him, for glazing over the floor to the female pillar. 'Oh my god! Oh my god! She's still alive!' I tripped as I made my way over there, as Gyomei followed as well.

(Y/n) shot her eyes open before leaning up harshly. This caused her to gasp and pain before I put my own hand behind her back, so she didn't hit her back against the floor. We stared at each other for a second looking over each other's wounds. 'That shoulder wound still hasn't been stitched.'

I thought, pulling out a needle and thread and starting stitching quickly, and Gyomei did the same. I was confused and I looked toward her ankles. 'That's sure to hurt..' I went to myself thinking of the pain as she would walk.

She signed a simple thank you before we all stood up. She needed help at first before we all started running to the next location.

-Tomioka's POV-
I've been running around dodging all the attacks since we encountered Muzan since my sword broke. I haven't been able to be of any use to anybody! Tanjiro got poisoned. I couldn't help him! 'I have to pick up a sword. One that isn't broken! That one over there belongs to a water breathing user. I can use that one.'

I thought as I practically sprinted, as we all got attacked. "So you can still move, pillars? Well, I suppose marked ones won't die right away." The demon king said as we all ran around like cats and mice. Soon Mitsuri got hit again letting out a yell causing Obanai to get unfocused as he tried to get over to her.

"Just protect yourselves!! Please!" She yelled as another attack came straight for her. To our surprise the attack was deflected. I then hear the rattle of chains as I see the iron ball get swung by our strongest pillar himself, Gyomei.

"Sorry for being late." He simply said, spinning his weapon, as he had blood coming down from his face. 'He's hurt too.' I thought before thinking that they had just got out of the battle with upper moon one.

Not even a second later Shinazugawa and (Y/n) entered the battle. Shinazugawa managed to cut moves on straight in half vertically before throwing something liquid towards the demon. Whatever he had thrown at him to be highly flammable as it made (Y/n)'s much stronger but more deadly as she got burnt as well.

"That's dirty." The demon king warned with his voice. "Well, it's perfect for the likes of you." Shinazugawa said in return with a frown as he glared at him. 'Amazing' I thought before continuing to find a sword. "I'll grind you to smithereens, punk-ass shithead."

I turned around to see a bunch of rubble before noticing another demon Slayer. "Murataaa! Tanjiro can't move! Take him to a safe place and treat him!!" It had been a few minutes later, yet the demon king's attack started getting faster.

I deflected some of the whip-like blades with my broken sword as Mitsuri continued to get hit. 'I'm being utterly useless!' Mitsuri then got struck down and was able to continue fighting. Obanai returned to battle utterly pissed as his bandage mask started to unravel revealing his scar.

'What happened..' I thought it's like looking at him but deciding that it was not the time to find answers. I probably won't even be in next time… as I want to try and slash through one of the whip-like blades my sword got caught up with the attack.

I started to lose grip as the poison started to reach my hands. Then the person I thought hated me the most saved me as Obanai used his breathing to deflect the blade and (Y/n) dash passed me throwing a sword. It landed in front of me as beads of sweat started to appear on my face.

Shinazugawa then turned his head toward me before yelling, "Don't space out now!! Well murder your ass!!" I then took action as I grabbed the sword again making a triple combo attack at Muzan.

(Y/n) got hit again but it wasn't against one of the blades. It was one of the whips as it hit her in the shin and the ankle. She seemed to be immobile for that as she couldn't get back up. 'Two pillars down.'

'You can still do this!! Pull yourself together!! You are the water pillar. Fight without shame until the very end!!' I thought as I was upside down as I had just finished the third form. 'Breath Of The Water: Third Form: Dance Of The Swift Current.'
