Hello again lovelies, so sorry for the wait! I had a three-day weekend and wanted to take a day off to just relax from all the work I have been getting drowned by, but I am back and here with a new chapter!

Enjoy!

(Y/n) pov:

The car ride didn't take too long and was very silent, the only thing that came to my ears were my silent sobs and the occasional honk of a horn coming from a different vehicle. I curled myself into a ball as I sat there and sobbed, looking outside the window. This was all just becoming too much for me to comprehend.

The car soon came to a slow and steady stop.

"We're here, now get out" Sanemi stated rather harshly, looking at my pathetic looking figure next to him. I quickly undid my seatbelt and opened the door to get out. I gave him a quick thank you before walking to my house and unlocking the door. My keys dangled from my hand as I placed the right key into the door's deadbolt and knob and twisted them to unlock. I turned around and saw that Sanemi had not left yet, due to his orders to stay and make sure nobody followed us. Turning back around, I turned the doorknob and walked into my very dark house.

My hand reached out and flicked the switch on the wall which turned on the hallway light, giving my house a little bit of life. I had only been with Kyojuro, Tengen, and Giyuu for a couple hours, but I kind of missed their company.

I took one last glance outside and saw Sanemi outside his car, leaning against it as he lit a cigarette, placing it to his lips as he relaxed. I sighed and closed my door behind me and decided to walk to my kitchen to grab something to eat. I hadn't eaten since the McDonald's a while ago, so I was feeling quite hungry. My feet padded against my wood floors as I reached the kitchen and flipped the switch, allowing light to flood into the room. I looked between the fridge and the pantry, deciding if I wanted a cold or warm snack.

I ended up just making myself a small sandwich and heading up to my room which was on the second story.

While I was heading up the stairs I managed to look outside and saw that Sanemi's car was not gone, he left quite early, 'I thought Oyakata-sama told him to stay for at least an hour or two'. I shrugged my shoulders and continued my way up the stairs. The hallway was dark, so I grabbed my phone instead and turned on the flashlight to make it to my room instead of turning on more lights.

I opened my door and switched on the light and came face to face with my room completely trashed.

"Wh- WHAT THE HELL?!" I yelled rather loudly to nobody. I walked around and saw that most of the large stuff was moved around as if someone came in here looking for something. I was speechless. 'What or who came in here and ruined my room?'

So many thoughts filled my head.

'Was it a demon? No, there would likely be scratch marks or something, something indicating it wasn't human. Maybe a person? The placement of everything seemed to be as if the person was in a rush but kept things discrete as if they weren't trying to make any noise' I thought.

I decided it was best to simply clean everything up and pray that whoever came here wouldn't come back.

I started by shutting my closet doors and putting the clothes that were thrown out back onto the rack. I turned and started pushing my dresser back to the wall, it was heavier than I thought, but I managed to push it back. I then began picking up some of the things that seemed to have fallen on shelves, mainly just figurines and some manga books. While I was situating the clutter, I moved my bed back to its original position next to my nightstand. I looked over and noticed that the stands where Giyuu, Tengen, and Kyojuro once stood were gone, but I remember that they were there this morning.
