A story about a young woman who trained hard with the highest rank of demon slayers to become a strong one, and stop the demons from creating more destruction.
..A difficult mission becomes more difficult when falling in love is in the way. Not onl...
The two quietly walked on the streets, not even knowing a single place to stay. The two of them just wanted to stay away from the L/N estate and live a happy life without an abusive father. As Y/N was walking, not too far behind her mother, her hair pin from the side of her head was loose and fell off.
Wasting no time, she lifted her kimono so it wouldn't be dirtied by the dust on the streets, as she bent down to pick it up. She was about to place it back on her hair, but when she saw that the figure of her mother disappeared in front of her.
She was confused since there was no trace of her leaving or going another way. She also did not hear a single sound when she was gone. Y/N started panicking as she looked left and right. She started walking and looking at every alleyway, or a pathway leading to the unknown, where she might find her mother playing a prank on her.
Y/N started to feel afraid, her heart beating fast, sweat dripping down her forehead, as she ran, her head turning to every direction where she could look. It has been a few minutes of running and panting, but she couldn't find her mother.
Tears started to form in the girl's eyes as she was trying to catch her breath, her leather bag hanging loose on her shoulder as she bent down, tired of running. Her hand was sweating because of how tight her grip was on the hair pin that fell from her hair.
Her eyes widened before she started sobbing uncontrollably as she stood up, her whole body shaking as she held to her leather bag, and her other hand wiping the tears thay were falling from her e/c eyes. She was hearing flesh ripping, liquid splattering, and loud munching.
She was frozen in place as she saw blood splatter from an alleyway not too far from the place she was standing on. Her sobs started getting louder as her legs started to move on its own. Her feet slowly led her to the place she did not want to see.
Her hand covered her mouth as she stood many meters away from the demon that was mercilessly ripping her mother's flesh. Blood was scattered everywhere. On the demon's face, her mother's kimono, and the walls, everywhere.
It seems like the demon did not care about Y/N's presence, until, the demon finally looked in her direction. The ugly demon sniffed the air, and it seemed to be afraid of her after it did it.
The wisteria flowers. Even these wisteria flowers can protect a Marechi like her?
'Why did he go after Mother? It should have been me. I am a Marechi. Stupid Wisteria. Mother did not have any wisteria flowers? Why would she not bring any? If i was closer to her, she would be alive. I wish this was all a nightmare. I wish we had just stayed there with my asshole father. She could have been alive. She could have been alive... Why, why, WH-'
Y/N's train of thoughts was cut off by a sound of flesh getting cut off, and the demon's head dropped to the ground. Y/N let out a yelp as she flinched and fell on her butt. She then looked up to see a slayer from the L/N estate, or probably one of her father's servants.
The face of the slayer was covered with pieces of cloth, but his dark eyes can only be seen. The black orbs glared at Y/N for a second before it turned around and raised his katana. The girl looked at the direction where he was facing and saw more slayers from the L/N estate.
The poor girl was frozen in place, her whole body shaking as she did not know what to do as she watched the slayers run to her direction. One of the slayers grabbed her by the kimono as she was forced to stand up. She was pushed in front of the slayer that picked her up as they started to walk back to the estate.
She looked back at her mother and the other slayers. Her mother's beautiful and perfect face was ruined. Blood all over her, flesh, and some parts of her body missing. The slayers of the L/N estate were helping each other to carry the corpse of the woman.
Y/N couldn't help but break into tears and sob uncontrollably. She quickly used the sleeves of her kimono to wipe the tears that were falling from her e/c orbs. Her legs and feet were moving on its own, as she was walking back to the place she didn't want to return. The slayer behind her, keeping an eye, so she won't try to escape.
This slayer was Y/N's distant cousin but was still a part of the L/N family. Her cousin really did pity her. But since he was a demon slayer, he has already experienced and witnessed a lot of deaths— including his parents' deaths. Therefore, he really did feel what the poor Marechi did. Losing a parent because of a demon.
I wish I could help her. I'll try...
