Demon's Pov

   " I've been in this village for a while, feeding on the parents of many children, tonight I will leave to the next city I can't get caught now". I look up at the window the sun is almost up. I stood up and took one last look at the white haired girl. Her face is irritating me. " Oh come on now, if you keep looking at me like that i'll just kill you, what's your deal kid? HEY seriously do you talk at all"? "Whatever i'm just wasting time but might as well kill her and put her out of her misery". I start walking towards the girl until.... BANG!

   "Ahhhh no it's a hashira, damn it"! The colorful hashira knocked down the door ready for combat. I move out of the way quickly. I look towards the window, I can slip passed if i'm quick enough. I run to it only to get pushed backwards. "Damn it Damn it Damn it I should've just left when I-". Slice.....plop..... "Wait why am I on the floor"?

Sae's Pov

   It all happened so fast. A bright looking hashira came and saved me. My parents told me stories about them all the time. Now one stands just a few feet from me. I'm still frozen in place all the happiness I knew was gone, scattered, bleeding in left over pieces on the floor. I see the monster begin to disintegrate into the air as it screams. The hashira sits in front of me saying something I can't understand. I can see him talking but nothing, the silence once again takes over.

   Next thing I knew I was being carried wrapped in a blanket. I somehow fell asleep not knowing where I will end up. I woke up in what I think is a house. I'm laying in a bed, in a room i'm unfamiliar with. The sun is high it must be noon, odd it doesn't feel like I slept that long. There it was again, the silence. knock knock. The door opened and a pretty lady with white hair and purple eyes came in. "I'm sorry if I woke you, I'm here to check on you, my name is Amane" I want to say something but I can't find the words to say anything. The pretty Lady looked at me with sadness. I feel bad for upsetting her maybe I should just say my name. "Katsuko Sae" Is all I could say and just like that she smiled at me.

It's been a few hours it's almost night time. I've been taken care of by the butterfly girls, they say they knew my parents and that they will be missed. I couldn't even think, all that was on my mind were the sounds, those irritating sounds. I was lost in thought until the pretty lady came back. "Excuse me Sae, I hope i'm not bothering you I would like to take you to see the demon slayer leader, he wishes to speak with you". I nodded and followed her to the mansion.

Upon our arrival I see a young dark haired man standing by a koi pond. He must've heard us coming. As he turns to us, I'm in awe. I've never seen someone such as him, he's much younger than I thought. He smiles at me and nods to the pretty lady and she leaves us. "I hope everyone has taken good care of you, I was planning on meeting you earlier but something's come up, I hope you can forgive me". I just nod I know it's disrespectful to not talk but I just can't, I haven't the slightest clue why. "Hmm I see you won't talk, it's to be expected i'm sorry for what happened my child, Your parents were one of the best kakushi i've had".

We talked for what seemed forever. Well more like he talked and I just listened, nodding my head when needed. He seemed deep in thought his voice was so graceful it made me feel at peace. For someone so young he was very wise and gentle with his words, he made me feel safe. "Sae I don't know what you plan to do from now on but you are welcome to live here, as informal as it is i've decided to adopt you if you'll let me". My eyes grow big in awe, I thought I would be left to fend for myself. "So what do you say Sae, I'll be happy either way you can stay with me or with the butterfly girls". I didn't know what to do I felt like I was being lifted out of a dark hole. I couldn't hold back so I hugged him.

Kagaya's Pov

She looked at me differently, her face was lit up and then she engulfed me in a hug. This surprised me, i've never had such interactions before. "This child.... " I hugged her back ever so gently. "One day you'll do great things my child". I let go of her and she did the same. "Thank you" is all she said with tears in her eyes. "No, thank you. I'm happy to have you here".
