Upper One.. You hold your breath, grasping the hilt on your sword. You narrow your eyes, the demon looking very familiar to you. "Father?" You spoke, standing your ground still.

Upper one paused, standing there with his eyes halfway wide. "You.. look familiar." He spoke calmly, approaching your way. You stumbled back, though he's your father, he's still a demon. "Y/N L/N. I think I'm your daughter." You said with slight certainty.

"Y/N.." He repeated your first name under his breath, looking up again as it clicked in his mind. "Oh, Y/N." Kokushibo blinked, removing his hand away from his kanata, some of his eyes locked on yours. "Hm. Y/N, you have the choice to either become a demon, or behead me." Upper one said out of nowhere, catching you off guard.

You stood there for a moment, taking deep breaths. "I.. father, I don't know I.." You lower your head, the grip loosening on your sword. Kokushibo slanted his eyes, letting out a soft grunt. "I see.."

"I thought I'd never see you never again.. I missed you but.." You paused, dismissing the thought. Kokushibo gave a nod. "I understand." Upper One exhaled, looking at the visuals of your body for a bit. You shook your head to yourself, launching yourself towards the Upper One, using your breathing technique.

Just like Kokushibo's your breathing technique was Moon Breathing, so it did surprise him at first to see that same type of breathing. "Moon breathing.." Kokushibo repeated under his breath again, swiftly dodging your quick attacks.

"I'm sorry, father." You paused again, lifting your head. "This is the only way. By beheading you." You took your fighting stance again. "Hm. I see." Kokushibo drew his sword, taking a sharp breath before attacking you. You quickly block his attack with your sword. You loose your grip a bit on the handle, struggling against his incredible strength.

You take a shallow breath, getting out of his grasp, backing up a bit. You both don't take long to catch your breath again, only focused to get the job done as soon as possible. The fight was a bit silent after that, no more words were shed for a while.

Many minutes are spent as you almost stumble to the ground due to your huge fatigue around your body and limbs. You slowly watch Upper One heal a bit with an annoyed huff. You lift your sword up, attempting to strike at his neck. Kokushibo blocked your attack with his blade with quick reflexes.

Upper One took a quick glance at your arm, attempting to slash it. You quick rise your sword, getting one of your hands slashed off clean in the process. You couldn't help but yell at the tense, sharp pain, pushing your body fowards. Kokushibo kicked your side a bit, making you launch backwards.

You cough up a bit of blood as you stumble to the ground, eyeing your fallen hand, washed in a red liquid. Kokushibo stood above you with his eyes slanted. He didn't finish you off, due to the family relationship between you two. You were grateful for that, at least.

You clench your chest, gasping for air and coughing constantly. Kokushibo watched you struggle like a animal on the brink of death silently.

"Hold still.. I'll stop the bleeding." Upper One puts pressure on your bleeding wounds, rising back up to his height. You looked up at him with confusion swirling around your face. You knew he wasn't giving it his all with his attacks, but helping you have an advantage? It probably didn't change anything for him, though.

You struggled to get up once more, eventually getting on your feet again. Your stamina hold was impressive. Kokushibo blew cold air from his mouth, grabbing the handle of his eye-covered kanata. You repeated his action, but you were the first one to strike. You knew you couldn't possibly behead Upper One, right under Kibutsuji by yourself. The only important thing was one of you had to at least die in this restless battlefield.
