Gyomei

The moon hung low in the night sky as the scent of cherry blossoms filled the air. Gyomei Himejima, the Pillar of Stone, found solace in the serene garden, a place he often retreated to when his emotions overwhelmed him. The weight of his responsibilities as a Demon Slayer pressed heavily on his broad shoulders.

Lost in his thoughts, Gyomei didn't notice your soft footsteps approaching. You had been a constant presence in his life, supporting him with unwavering love and understanding. Your heart ached for him, knowing the burden he carried and the loneliness that accompanied it.

"Y/N," Gyomei greeted, turning to face you with a gentle smile. His blind eyes didn't hinder his ability to see the warmth of your love. "I'm glad you're here."

You stepped closer, feeling the pull of destiny intertwining your lives. "Gyomei, you don't have to bear this weight alone. Let me be the one to share your burdens."

He reached out, his large hand enveloping yours, finding solace in your touch. "You bring light to my darkness, Y/N. But I fear for your safety. Demons lurk in the shadows, and my path is filled with peril."

With conviction in your voice, you replied, "I've made my choice, Gyomei. I choose to walk beside you, to face the dangers together. We can find strength in each other."

Gyomei's heart swelled with love, the mere thought of your unwavering support granting him a newfound determination. He pulled you into his embrace, feeling the steady beat of your heart against his chest.

"I am blessed to have you in my life, Y/N," he murmured, his voice filled with gratitude. "I will protect you with every ounce of my being."

Days turned into weeks, and weeks into months. Your love for each other grew deeper, fueling the strength to overcome every obstacle. In the quiet moments shared between battles, Gyomei would run his calloused fingers through your hair, relishing in the softness that provided respite from the harshness of their world.

However, the darkness that plagued the Demon Slayer Corps was unyielding. A formidable demon had ambushed the two of you, catching Gyomei off guard. Desperation and fear filled your heart as you watched the demon's claws dig deep into his flesh.

"Gyomei!" you cried out, rushing to his side. Tears streamed down your face as you pressed your trembling hands against his wounds, desperately trying to stem the flow of blood. "Please, hold on!"

Gyomei's breathing was labored as he gazed at you, his love shining through the pain. "Y/N, my love," he gasped, his voice barely a whisper. "You have brought light to my life. Remember, even in darkness, love endures."

A bittersweet smile graced his lips as his body slumped against yours, his last breath leaving him.

"No," you choked, your heart shattering as you held his lifeless body in your arms. "Gyomei, please don't leave me."

But Gyomei had fulfilled his duty as a Demon Slayer, his soul now finding peace.

In the wake of his passing, you were left with memories of his unwavering love and the strength he instilled within you. The garden, once a place of solace, now held a profound emptiness.

But through the pain, you realized that Gyomei's words still resonated within you. Even in the darkest of times, his love endured, guiding you forward.
