I feel a sense of fear surging through my veins. Will my soul be pure enough to be a Shadowhunter? Or will I be like those fallens and turn into a demon?

-My Resolve Is Strong-

Y/N P.O.V

I shake my head as I shut my eyes tightly to dismiss the negativeness from my head. No... I'm not going to let myself fall that far. I'm not going to become a demon. I will pass the selection and be a proper Shadowhunter so I can help Onii-Chan turn Nee-San back into a human.

I wince in pain as the mark on my neck starts to feel like it's on fire. I feel the burning sensation spreading around my body. I lift my hands and stare at it in horror once I notice the mark is spreading.

"Looks like it's already starting..." the demon said. I turn my head to look at the demon in horror. "It would only take a few minutes until your transformation is complete and you'd finally be a demon. Just like you're meant to be" he said. I shake my head as tears starts to stream down my cheeks. I feel fear growing within me. I don't want to turn into a demon. But I don't know how to stop the transformation.

"That's not right, Y/N!" I hear Onii-Chan yelled. I turn my head to look at him through the tears that blurred my vision. I can see a look of sadness on his face. "Please don't listen to him! You're a lot stronger both physically and mentally! You can fight it! Come on, Y/N! Don't let yourself become a demon!" He exclaimed.

"Onii-Chan..." I said, my voice cracking. I let out a loud scream as pain surge through my body. I feel a something growing out on my back. I turn my head slightly to see it's a pair of wings.

I turn to look at Onii-Chan with tears in my eyes

I turn to look at Onii-Chan with tears in my eyes. His eyes widen as he stares at me in horror. "Please, Y/N!! Don't turn into a demon!" He screamed, as tears streams down his cheeks.

"You know the only way to stop the transformation, boy" the demon said. I turn my head to look at him, and turn to look at Onii-Chan again. He shakes his head as he drops on his knees.

"I-I c... can't do t-that..." he cried out. I stare at him as I try to control myself. "I can't do that... I can't kill her" he said. My eyes widen at what he said. So the only solution we have to stop my transformation into a demon is to kill me?

"Just do it, Onii-Chan..." I said. His head snap towards my direction. I stare at him with a pleading gaze. "P-Please just kill me. Don't let me become a monster..." I said. My tears keeps on falling from my eyes.

"I can't do that, Y/N..." he cried out, shaking his head. His breathing becomes heavy as he starts to cry. "You're my little sister. I can't do that... you have to fight it, Y/N. You're stronger than this! Think... think of everyone that cares about you!!" He said.

"Onii-Chan..." I said. I feel the pain in my body intensify, especially the pain on my head. I let out a pained scream, while clutching my head in a tight grip. I shut my eyes tightly.

I see images starts flashing in my mind. They're not just random things. They're memories... memories that I've made along the way as start to meet more people. They're the memories that I've made after meeting Zenitsu, Inosuke and Muichiro. Along with everyone else.

Among the memories are the a memory about Rengoku-San. How I've brought him back to life, only for him to return his soul back to me when I collapsed. It shocked me so much that my memories became a haze. But now I remember everything so clearly. Among them... was my determination to continue fighting so I can return Nee-San back into a human. Onii-Chan is right... I shouldn't give up.

I feel warmth spreading through me. I open my eyes and stare at my hand to see them glowing. In fact, my whole body is glowing a soft f/f. The demonic wings on my back slowly hardens, and crumbles. I let out a gasp.

My new wings looks like it's made from light

My new wings looks like it's made from light. I hear a frustrated yell and turn my head to see the demon.

"No! You're almost perfect! I can't believe this!" He said. His voice sounded frustrated and angry. I slowly stand up and my wings moves gracefully. "You're so close to be the perfect demon! You could be so powerful. But you chose to be a Shadowhunter instead!! You're useless!!" He yelled. In a blink of an eye, I appear behind him. My sword is on my side.

I turn around and watch as his head rolled of his neck. He let out a gasp as he stares at his headless body. "Useless? The only useless thing around here is you..." I said, in a cold voice.

I turn to look at the female demon who flinch. I flap my wings as I fly towards her with a fast speed. My sword ready to strike. She tries to block me using her obi. But I swiftly cut through them before they even have a chance to strike me.

I swing my sword, slicing her neck with ease. I land on the ground as both of the demon's head rolled on the ground. I breathe heavily as the wing retracted from my back. My body starts to sway a little.

Onii-Chan quickly gets up and rushes over to me. His arm catches me before I fall on the ground. I smile weakly at him. "I did it... Onii-Chan. I fought the curse. I'm a true Shadowhunter now..." I said. He smiles and nod his head as he stares at me with a bright smile. Tears starts falling from his eyes.

"You're so strong, sis... get some rest now, okay?" He said. I just smile softly and nod my head. I lean my head against his chest. I close my eyes, letting myself slowly drift off to sleep.

Tanjiro P.O.V

"Thank goodness..." I cried out, placing my forehead against Y/N's. She didn't turn into a demon. She's still herself and she have become a true Shadowhunter. Just like the book said.

Although rare... there are a few cases during the process of the transformation, a Shadowhunter would be able to fight the process and become a true Shadowhunter. This type of Shadowhunter are known as a Seraphim, which are the most powerful ones among their kinds.

Looks like Y/N belonged in that category. She have became a Seraphim, because managed to become a true Shadowhunter amidst the transformation process. She have fought not only her demonic self, but also her own mind. Y/N is truly a strong girl. I'm glad she didn't ended up turning into a demon.
