(Name) looked away from Genya and noticed how the demon swayed as if in a trance.

"Genya! I think I have an idea!" Looking at him, she told him to come close. They had to be quick before the demon snapped out of his dazed state.

"We both go different directions, since I have marechi blood he'll follow me. That's when I spill more blood to throw him off, and you come in to beat him. How's that sound?"

Genya turned away and looked at the demon. "Yea that could work..."

'Is I really worth trying? It's only been a month since I've last done it...maybe I could control it this time.'

Pulling (Name) out of the way, he watched the demon crash into the snow.

Drunken off of the smell.

'Maybe...'

"You ready?" She asked, waiting for an answer.

Genya stared back at the demon as it got back to its feet.

'You know what, fuck it!' Running forward, Genya swung on the demon. 

"Raagh–!" Letting out a pained growl, the demon yelled as the human boy sank his teeth within the skin of his neck. Biting down incredibly hard, he ripped the flesh clean off the bone and swallowed in one go.

(Name) watched with pure disgust. "I know I say I'll do anything to live but...eating flesh doesn't sound too pleasant." Watching Genya spasm for a moment (Name) gasped.

"Ah– are you ok!?" Coming to his side, she was immediately pushed away. Genya let out short heavy breaths as he held his chest. He was still getting used to eating the flesh of demons and gaining demonic powers. 

"Go...run, I'll take care of him."

"What!? But I don't even know the way out, plus what if the demon overpowers you and–"

"I said go! Just head straight, keep a straight line and whatever you do. Do not slow down." He doesn't know if he'll be able to keep control. And he'd never forgive himself if he ate a human.

Looking at the demon, then at the boy whose appearance began to change, she clicked her tongue. "Ok but...don't die!" And with that, she turned and booked it. Genya watched as she ran, "Oh no you don't." Gripping the demon by its hair, he yanked him back. 

"You're fight is with me!"

(Name) continued on a straight path as told, her stamina was running low and her nose was getting blood everywhere, she doesn't know how much longer she can stay awake–

"Ah!" Letting out a pained yell, she stumbled to the ground as her eye flared in excruciating pain. "Aaghh!" Gripping her face, she panted as the pain continued.

"Wha-...what is...happening...to- to me...?" Laying there for who knows how long, she finally found the strength to rise. Stumbling with every step, tears came to her eyes as Gyomei's house came to view.

"Finally...Himejima–San, help! Please, there's someone in the fore–!?" The air left her lungs as a terrible force made impact with her back.

Falling to the ground, she rolled for a moment before coming to a stop. Looking up, she stared at the decapitated head of the demon roll onto the dirt. "You...you did it!?" Failing to notice the odd behavior of Genya, she stood quickly and went to give him a hug in celebration.
