Cold Hearted (Sanemi x Ice Hashira Oc)

❄️Demon Knowledge❄️

Sae's Pov

This city is quite big, it'll be a while before I find Lady Tamayo. I've been wondering the streets looking for anything that could lead me to her. For some reason in this area I sense something calming it almost reminds me of flowers. I follow the feeling through the streets. It lead me to a dead end. "Well this is strange, the feeling keeps going but I can't go any further unless". I walked up to the wall, putting my hands up and resting my ear against it but ended up falling through the wall. I suddenly find myself in what seems to be the backyard to a house. I place my hand on my sword for reassurance and begin walking to the door. I hesitate to knock only to be surprised that it was opened by a young man who also looked surprised. "Who the hell are you"?

I couldn't tell if he was a demon or not, best to be polite. "I'm sorry to disturb you at this hour. I'm Sae Ubuyushiki, i'm with the demon slayer corps and-". Before I could finish speaking the young but surprisingly strong man shoved me away harshly. My feet slid against the dirt, once I regained my balance I reached for my sword but stopped. "Yushiro! What are you doing"? A pretty woman walked outside and was staring at both of us. "Oh my, I'm sorry miss, Yushiro has a temper and is very protective. Please come in I think I know why you are here." "Miss Tamayo don't we can't trust her!" Lady Tamayo reassured him that everything was fine but still glared at Sae every chance he got. I carefully let go of my sword and follow her inside the house. For some odd reason, when she spoke to me, she made it seem very calming and she seems trust worthy. I won't know for sure until i've made contact with her.

Once inside she leads me downstairs. "Please there's no need to try anything we won't hurt you, it's not what we want to be". I look around a notice medicine and herbs all around. "That's why i'm here, I need... well we need to understand you more and learn things. To help each other, if that's even possible. That is why my father sent me here, you can trust me". Tamayo seemed relaxed at what Sae had said. "So please tell me Sae, why are the demon slayers interested in us now. You have obviously known about us for a while". Sae actually didn't know of anyone like Lady Tamayo but Kagaya did. "Well I guess i've just come to a realization and needed some answers, Master keeps an eye on demons such as yourself and wanted me to come talk to you. If he were to send another hashira well let's just say they aren't as open minded as me". After trying to explain to Lady Tamayo and her friend that I am not a threat, we all went in to discussion about demons. "So tell me what do you want to know, you can ask anything and i'll do my best to give you an answer". Sae thought on all the possible questions she could ask but only one stuck out the most. "Who is muzan"? Sae say Lady Tamayo and Yushiro's face change.

Lady Tamayo took a moment before speaking, which made Sae even more nervous. "Well you see, all of us demons have our differences but one of the things we share is Muzan's blood. He is the one who created us, who made us like this. He is to be feared, he controls our lives, even yours. To my knowledge he is the first demon to ever walk the earth. I don't know a lot about him but I know enough to know that I despise him. Kibutsuji Muzan is the Demon king." Sae took a moment before speaking, preparing for her next question. "Are there others like you and how are you the way you are?" Tamayo look at Yushiro as she spoke. "As far as I know we are the only ones. As for how, I remember a time when Muzan was weakened by a demon slayer and I alone was able to escape his curse but ever since then i've been a target. I've taught Yushiro how to behave in the ways that I taught myself and we have been in hiding." Sae thought once more only asking for one more question. "I appreciate you talking with me I only have one more question to ask and from there I would like to discuss other things with you." Sae was somewhat more straightforward than before. The demons sense a different aura around her. Yushiro has been on his guard the whole time not trusting Sae. "Of course, ask me anything." "How do we kill Muzan?"

After what seemed like hours Sae had gathered all the information she needed and they came to an understanding. They will work together in secret under the master. "I have to say something to you both before I go." They were outside ready to see Sae off. Yushiro just wanted her gone he still didn't fully trust the demon slayer or any of them for that matter. "As would I, I'm so glad we were able to make an alliance together, I look forward to working with you." Sae smiled at her and then to Yushiro who just looked away. "Well when I came looking for you I didn't know what to expect, but once I knew what you were, i'm not going to lie I was prepared to kill you. It wasn't till I noticed your presence that I knew you weren't a threat and I would just like to say thank you." "For what my dear?" Sae walked to Lady Tamayo and hugged her before saying something Lady Tamayo never expected to hear. "Thank you for becoming who you are, if you hadn't been here, I wouldn't have any hope." Lady Tamayo hugged her back even tighter. "OKAY YOU CAN LET LADY TAMAYO GO NOW!"

Sae hadn't felt this good in a long time. Her doubts about demons ceased to exist with a single conversation. As Sae walked outside of the city she felt something off. Like she was being watched, she looked at her surroundings. The presence she felt was close and it gave her chills. She was all alone it would be a perfect moment for a demon to strike but it hasn't yet. Something isn't right, if they were going to attack they would have done it by now. Sae was so lost in her thoughts that once again.....CAW CAW CAW SAE IS NEEDED BACK AT THE DEMON SLAYER CORPS NOW CAW CAW A HASHIRA HAS FALLEN CAW CAW A HASHIRA HAS FALLEN. Sae jumped back out of fear from her loud crow. It took her a moment to realize what the crow had just said and her heart felt like it dropped. "Tani...... what did you just say?" HASHIRA KANAE KOCHO HAS BEEN KILLED BY A DEMON CAW CAW HURRY BACK THE MASTER.
