"Miss Mitsuka?!"

"Miss Mitsuka!"

Mituska begins to wake up a couple of Kakushis looking down at her with teary eyes. Her eyes shifts a bit looking around. She tries to get up, but the Kakushi stops her, "you need to rest! You have lost too much blood!"

Mituska closes her eyes feeling the pain from her right leg throbbing again. She then remembers what happened, "Sanemi. Where is Sanemi?"

The Kakushis all looked at each other with a nervous look before responding, "when he found us, he give you to us and told us to protect you with our lives before rushing off somewhere."

One of the Kakushis added, "he looked extremely pissed too. I have never seen him so mad before."

Mitsuka lets out a sigh of relief hearing that Sanemi is alive and kicking. Her peace did not last long though as she begins to feel the infinity castle shaking as things begin to come falling apart.

The Kakushis quickly puts there bodies on top of Mitsuka not wanting anything to fall on her. Mitsuka watches as the pillars begins to fall one by one. As the one closest to them begins to fall, she quickly push the Kakushis off her and out of the way before it could fall on all of them.

Mitsuka rolls over dodging the falling pillars. She begins to cough out some more blood as she tries her best to stand up. She yells, "we- we need to get out of here!"

The Kakushis understood and quickly goes over to put Mitsuka over their shoulder as they start carrying her away while another Kakushi carries her sword.

In a miracle, the Kakushis and Mitsuka manage to get out of the infinity castle just in time before seeing its fully collapse. Mituska watches as it falls apart, in her heart, she prays and hope that all the demons slayers got out safely too.

She can't help but also think about the demon who created that place. She too pray that with their defeat, may they find peace and forgiveness in their heart.

The Kakushis helps Mitsuka over to lay down somewhere safe.

Before she could rest, Mitsuka looks over to see a few members of the crop engaging with Muzan again. With determination, Mituska tries to reach for her sword, but the Kakushi that was holding it pulls it away from her. They cry, "please stop... you have already done enough... You are too injured to keep fighting..."

Mituska was taken back by this.

Ever since she became a demon slayer, she was always the one protecting others, not wanting them to worry about her, especially the Kakushis since they can only do so much to help.

But to see the other Kakushis continuing risking their lives to help the Hashiras defeat Muzan made her respect and honour them even more.

Hearing their wish, she decided to pulls her hand away from the Kakushi that was holding on to her sword. She then lays down on the bed that they quickly made for her.

Mitsuka closes her eyes letting the Kakushis continues to do their operation on her right leg to help her body out during this time. Due to the drugs taking its effects, Mitsuka begins to fall back a sleep.

Mitsuka wakes up to the sound of Sanemi in pain. She turns to her left side to see Sanemi laying down badly injured. Her eyes widen seeing him cry in the corner of her eye. She had never seen Sanemi cried before. Something really bad must have happened to trigger such a strong emotion for him while she was unconscious.

An uneasy feeling sets on her stomach.

The Kakushis quickly rush over and tries to help him. Seeing that her wounds and leg is bandaged up. Mitsuka quickly follows them and does the same as well.

Mitsuka watches Sanemi fearing for his life.

Knowing that Sanemi doesn't cry and is probably embarrassed to, Mitsuka just pulls him close to her. Shielding his tears away from anyone else as the Kakushis focus on helping him out with his wounds.

"Shh, it's okay. It's okay."

Sanemi cires onto her.

He sounds so hurt and broken as he tries to let her know, "Genya... he's gone Mariko..."

Mitsuka understood his pain.

She nods her head listening to him, "I'm so sorry... I'm so so sorry." Her heart ache for him and his younger brother.

As he cries, she just sits there and holds him.

Once Sanemi manages to get some rest, Mituska goes to get her wounds checked again.

As time passes, Mitsuka keeps looking up to the night sky praying that the battle would come to an end and for all of them to walk away safely.

A hint of sunlight shine into her eyes right eye. Her eyes widen to see that the night is slowly disappearing and the sun is finally rising.

"Sunrise."

This is it.

This might be the time we finally defeat Muzan.

She closes her eyes as she prays. With the memories of the people that she loves flashing before her eye.

"Please, please end this suffering now."
