THE EMBODIMENT OF LUCK || KNY

||Demon Slaying, Corp rules||

You push as hard as you can, helping Tanjiro to finally cut off the demons head. The head drops back, going directly behind you and it's only when Tanjiro falls to the ground that you actually move, slowly looking around in post, I'm 'bout to die energy.

"Tanjiro... Are you okay?" You ask him, not daring to take a step yet since you would probably fall face first to the ground like before.

"Y-yeah." He mumbles, trying to stand back up.

When you do finally take a step, it's because Nezuko was starting to fall and you had to run to go grab her. Probably not the best idea especially since when you caught her, you fell on your knees and heard a loud crack. Ouch, what bone was that?

"Nezuko, we won, we did it!" He yells, trying to crawl his way over. You look down at Nezuko to see her breathing which meant that she was still alive, so you put her down and scooted yourself closer to Tanjiro to try and grab his hand.

Oh. 

Shit. 

Lord have mercy on your soul cause there was no way. You watched as the demons body slowly stood up and you didn't know what to do. 

You cut the demon's head off with Tanjiro, so should he have still been alive? You groan, grabbing onto Tanjiro's hand and trying to drag him but even with your sitting position. You were too weak to move him fast enough. Not only that, Tanjiro could smell when the demon stood up, the scent of blood getting stronger and not smelling like ash in any way so now he was scared too.

"You two thought you defeated me, how sad. Did your delusion bring your a brief moment of joy? I cut my head off myself using my own threads before you two were able to do the job yourselves."

You were suddenly so heartbroken, right after being so happy that you survived with them. Now this was round two wasn't it? There was no way you would survive.

"Enough struggling, I'll kill both you, the samurai and your sister. I haven't been this incensed in a long time."

No, you weren't going to let that happen, even if you died in the process. You weren't going to let Tanjiro or Nezuko die as long as you were alive. Though you couldn't deny that you felt terrible dragging Tanjiro farther away from the demon and you couldn't move that fast either. Tanjiro could barely get himself to crawl because of how tired he was.

"I wonder why you weren't burned to cinders in that explosion earlier? Me and my threads were the only thing set ablaze and I don't know if it relates to your sisters power. It has enraged me all the same."

"You're just sulking like a child, it's not like we killed you." You darkly reply towards the demon with a bit of sarcasm added. You don't know if this is a second wind that you felt like you could still move or if it's just luck, but you were as mad as him. Now you really wanted that demon dead.

"I will carve you up without regret! Blood demon art, murderous eye basket!"

Eye basket? What type of blood demon art would be called that? And why was it even called blood demon art? Gross.

A whole bunch of the red threads pop up from under the ground, surrounding both you and Tanjiro and already you were committed to making sure Tanjiro wouldn't die. Maybe other demon slayers would come and help if you could stall this, you were able to do it before even though it put cuts all over your hands.

"You'll get tired." You seethe, glaring at the demon with an intensity you didn't even know you had. You had to mentally prepare yourself for the pain you would feel, if no one came while you were holding off the threads, it would be able to actually cut through your body over time.
