This is my first story. I don't own the characters, manga or the anime. Warning: 1 spelling errors 2 names may be wrong . . . Tomoe loved her younger siblings fiercely - not with quiet protection, but with laughter, stories, and warm embraces. When demons started appearing near their village, she felt helpless, terrified of losing them. So she ran - not out of fear, but to become strong enough to protect them. She trained with a reclusive swordswoman known for her frost techniques, adapting Breath of Water and Breath of Wind into her own style. During this time, she kept in touch with Tsutako and Giyu through letters, always careful not to reveal her location. Years later, hearing that Tsutako was getting married, she returned home, heart bursting with joy - only to find the house cold, the wedding dress untouched, and her sister's body covered by a white cloth. "The demon came the night before... Giyu ran. We haven't seen him since." With a crushed spirit, Tomoe searched endlessly for Giyu but found no trace. Assuming the worst, she continued her path as a slayer, eventually rising to the rank of Hashira.
