The same day, same loud city, same old school days, and same boring life... But what happens when you dare to step out of that life of the same old ordinariness? The world is black and white, but can you see the gray area in between? The silver light that fills the darkness but skews the light, can you see it? The world around you trudges on in a never-ending loop, is there nothing in between? What if you discover that something that offered you a glimpse into the world in between your normal everyday life, would you reach out and accept the chance of a lifetime? ... What if it meant great sacrifices and suffering?

"All cats are grey in the dark." This is a proverb. It means that in the dark, you can't tell one cat from another. In a figurative sense, it could also mean that someone who has too little information can't properly assess the situation. They can't distinguish between good and evil. When the Demon King died, the black line separating good and evil was broken. Demons find themselves, demons seek themselves. Demons are evil, demons are good. Demons remain lonely, demons find the family they didn't know they were searching. But how can you tell them apart if you can't see in the darkness? How can you judge whether you're doing the right thing when all you can see is grey? And in the deepest darkness of ignorance, confusion, the darkness of a decline of selfishness and ignorance, only the cats seem to see through the darkness. This story is a tragedy, just like Demon Slayer. There is an ending. Is it a good one? A bad one? Is the dried cat blood on the ground worth it? Was it all worth it, were the dead, the lost, worth it, just so someone switches the light button on? Was it all worth it when you look around and realize that cat blood is just as crimson as a human's? ...Basically: "What if the hashira didn't fall into the infinity castle?" Disclaimers: ------------------------------------------------------------- ! Manga spoilers ! ! I do not own Demon Slayer, it belongs to Koyoharu Gotouge ! ! English is not my first language, but I'm learning, so please say if there are any mistakes. ! ! Descriptions of Demons and Slayers doing bloody things (imagine descriptions of things that happen in manga and anime just as a book) ! ! OCs ! ! I really try to keep characters and relationships accurate ! ! Worldchanging Headcanons ! ! Extreme Angst ! ! Major character death !
