Shinobu POV:

The stupid, stupid man. 

How could he forget? That moment, with the ground slowly nearing my nose, was forever embedded into my mind. I could never forget it, the moment I saw his stricken face, his ocean-blue eyes widening as I fell towards the floor. 

I pushed past the branches till I skidded into a small clearing, and I sat myself on a rock to clear my mind. 

I just needed to think.

Giyu POV:

She'd left me. 

That was all I could think of. I waited there, rooted to the spot for a full minute waiting for her. But she never returned. 

After another minute, I convinced myself she wasn't coming back. 

So I ventured deeper in the forest, with two motives: a) find Shinobu. b) find the demon and kill it.

My ears pricked as something that resembled a wolf howling ripped through the forest. I immediantly bolted towards the sound, panic pounding through my blood, knowing I might have just seconds before another innocent life was ripped away, all thoughts of Shinobu forgotten, because when there's a life in danger nothing else can be thought of. 

That was what being a Hashira was. 

You can't be selfish, or else you regret it.
