SUMMARY
Muichiro becomes an uppermoon.
•
Muichiro, with a vacant expression in his eyes, feasted on the corpses of the fallen demon slayers, his mind clouded by the brutality of the act he had just committed. As he chewed on the flesh, a sudden flashback flooded his mind, pulling him back to his past life as a human.

"Mother please rest." A voice said. A voice that sounded a lot like him but it wasn't him. Muichiro found himself in a trance. He glanced at his surroundings. He realized he was holding wood. "Yuichiro, I am fine. Just a cold." Muichiro drew his attention towards the two figures. It seems like he is on a mountain during the spring. He saw a mother and child arguing over the mother resting. The mother was very stubborn. Little Muichiro gave a confused look and almost says something before he's interrupted. "Muichiro, hand me a new axe." Another voice echoed.
"Huh?"
"Did you daze out again? Silly kid. Please hand me the axe son."
Son? What is he talking about. Muichiro thought.
Muichiro went over unconsciously snd handed the man the axe. He wondered why he was in the mountains with a strange family. And why the boy with the mother looked like him.
"Here." As soon as Muichiro handed him the axe he got another flashback. A flashback of the lady in her bed coughing. He felt tears prick his eyes. He doesn't know why he's crying.
"I told her to rest. She didn't listen. Now dad is risking his life.." the identical boy next to him said. Muichiro didn't even notice his presence. He blinked at the boy next to him like he was a ghost.
The lady didn't make it and the man didn't come back.

Muichiro's grip on the demon slayer's body tightened as the memories of that night overwhelmed him. He looked at the lifeless faces before him, torn between the conflicting emotions. "I... I killed them all."
Kokushibou gave him a weird look. "You did nothing wrong.. These demon slayers were trying to kill us. We had to.. defend.. ourselves."
"But... they were just doing their duty. Protecting innocent lives..."
"They were a threat.. to us, Muichiro. As demons, we have to survive.., and sometimes that means we have to do things that seem cruel. It's the.. way of our.. existence." Kokushibou responded. He has never seen the boy so disturbed before. "But... it felt wrong. I... I saw their faces, their fear... I killed them." Muichiro stared at his sharp claws covered in blood and guts. He felt sick to his stomach.
