Time Travel Shenanigans (Kimetsu no Yaiba Reader Insert)

The Redhead Calls You By Your Name

"Hey Mr. Business, how do you do?" you sang. "Can we get a triple for you?" Currently, you were getting ready to head over to where Final Selection was held. After you finished your ponytail, you walked over to where your sword was. You were still humming the song in your head. Actually, you were dancing a little bit too. It was surprising to you that you remembered how to swing dance.

Tsuki was walking by and saw the little scene you were putting on. "What are you even singing?" she asked.

You then realized you were singing something she didn't know about, and probably never will. "It's just a song from my time," you said. "I watched this play before I time traveled here and I loved it."

The older woman nodded. "I see," she said. "So, are you ready to go."

"Wait, one second."

You then went to the room you were staying in. The cochlear implant and golden watch were on the table. Quickly, you grabbed them and put them in the pockets you sewed into your blue kimono. "Okay, now I'm ready," you said to yourself. You could possibly get exposed from a stranger, but the pockets weren't shitty so you decided to take a chance. When you walked out to where the door was, you felt less shaky. It was like your twin was calming you down. You're going to survive this. It's one more step into getting back home. You stood in front of the sliding door. A determined look was on your face.

"Alright," you looked back at Tsuki. "Off I go."

Tsuki smiled. "Be safe," she said. "And come back in one peace."

You gave your caretaker a thumbs up. "I never had the chance to say this but," you started. "Thank you Tsuki, for everything." You gave her one last wave before walking out the sliding door. After taking a deep breath, you started walking.

Purple flowers were everywhere while you walked up the mountain. There were in little groups on their own tree branches. You even noticed the moonlight reflecting off of them, creating more of a serene place to look at. You heard from Tsuki that the flowers were Wisteria plants. They're used as demon repellent. You thought of it as a bug spray, but for demons.

When the flower path ended, you saw a lot of other people gathered in one area. There were a couple more Wisteria trees in the clump. A head of the crowd, there was a red gate thing that looked like it was the opening to a shrine. You'd seen them around in the present, but you've never walked inside. There was also a perfect view of the full moon above the trees. It was like it knew you were going to be here and decided to give you a recharge before you can start healing yourself and others while they were asleep.

"Everyone."

You looked to under the gate. There were two small girls speaking at the same time. One had white hair, and the other had black hair. The girls had the same kimono. They definitely reminded you of those twins from The Shining.

"We thank you for your bravery of coming to this mountain," the twins said. "There are demons here that demon slayers have captured and put on this mountain. The Wisteria flowers are the only things that keep them from coming down here."

You were pretty amazed at that fact. It was just flowers, but a demon can't stand them. You wondered what it was that made them like that around the flowers.

"Your task is to survive for seven days beyond this point of the mountain," The Shining twins said. "There are no Wisteria flowers at this point, so demons will roam free there."

That wave of panic from this morning came back. Sure, Tsuki told you that you had to survive seven days, but still. You felt like you were about to hyperventilate at that fact. Maybe it was because it was said by the Shining Twins. "You may now go beyond this point," the petite girls said.
