Michikatsu POV

It's been a week since I last met up with Muzan.

I've felt eyes on my back for days after. It's weird. I sense eyes watching me then when I look no one is there. It worries me.

Am I going insane?

No no, I can't go insane. I'm a slayer, not a demon.

It is quite frankly impossible. Right?

I'm sidetracking.

I've been taking residence in the wind hashiras estate. The machakistu's are very welcoming.

Koraukou has a girlfriend, Immex. She is so fun and loves tamayo. So they had no problem letting a demon into their home.

I was feeling bad though, I was using some of their supplies that are needed for them. So I tried to leave.

But, today is Wednesday.

Meaning I have to find a way to sneak out to meet Muzan. This will be more difficult than expected.

Koraukou has eyes everywhere. He's cunning to say the least. Immex will be off with Tamayo so I will be fine on that half.

I try leaving through the front door.

He catches me. No suprise.

"Tsukiguni, where are you off too?" He asked.

"Oh, just taking a stroll. I won't be long." I said.

He nodded.

"Be safe. Here, take a blade" he said and chucked me my nichirin sword.

I nodded back at him and opened the sliding door, closing it and leaving the warm candlelight behind. I was swallowed by moonlight.

I walked around. Muzan said to meet him by my cabin, but it's far away.

So I made a run for it.

As I neared my old cabin, all that remained were ashes.

I looked down and sighed.

Memories came back to me.

⋆⁺₊⋆ ☾⋆⁺₊⋆

"WHAT DO YOU MEAN YOU DONT CARE ABOUT ME?!" Haruhime shouted, I looked dumbfounded at her.

"I NEVER HAVE AND NEVER WILL!! CALL ME MY FATHER FOR HELLS SAKE AND PACK UP AND LEAVE!" I said.

Tears rushed down both our faces, our children cowered in a corner as we fought. Tamayo comforted them.

"GET THE FUCK AWAY FROM MY CHILDREN YOU DEMON SCUM!" Haruhime shouted and headed towards tamayo. She held a knife.

"HARU NO!" I shouted

Through her anger she stabbed downwards.

Yet tamayo was unharmed.

Haruhime had struck down one of our children, haruka.

Akeno wailed and tamayo tried applying pressure.

It was a wound straight to the head. Haruhime dropped the bloody knife, the red liquid of our daughter's head coaxed her hands, she stared at them, silent and shaking.

I pushed past her and ran to Haruka.

Akeno wouldn't let go of his twin sister. It's understandable.

"Try... try to fix her please tamayo" I said, through tears and pain.

"I can't, she's gone" Tamayo said.

Something inside me snapped.

I dragged back Akeno and put him on the corner of the floor.

I turn to look for Haruhime. The door was wide open and she wasn't anywhere to be seen.

"THAT DAMN BITCH" I called out. I fell to my knees, deviated.

Akeno was still crying in the corner. I shuffled over to him and grabbed him in an embrace. He tugged on my yukata and cried helplessly into it.

"Michikatsu, what should we do?" Tamayo asked, her cheeks had been tinted silver and glossy with tears.

I looked at her and thought.

"Cremate her" I said.

Akeno had fallen asleep. I hand him to Tamayo. Tamayo gave me my poor baby girl.

We walked outside. I looked at the house.

I grabbed a lantern on the floor and smashed it against the wall. The oil dropped down and eventually the flame caught it.

As the house flickered with charring, I grabbed some flowers from our garden. I put them in Haruka's hair.

I gazed at her. She had my hair, but Haruhime's cerulean eyes. I kissed her on the cheek, giving her one last hug, caring not about the blood that stained the white on my yukata.

I went into the ablaze house and set her quiet, motionless body in the middle of it.

As I walked out, I refused to look back.

It was for the better, as a few moments later the house collapsed, still ablaze.

Tamayo placed a hand on my shoulder.

"We should head to the wind hashiras" I said and wiped my eyes.

And we set off, walking at a slow pace.

⋆⁺₊⋆ ☾⋆⁺₊

I miss Haruka more than Haruhime. I hope that motherfucker got mauled to death by a demon for all I care.

I shook my head, as a tear stroked my cheek.

I patted it up with my sleeve and walked the rest of it.

When I made it there, Muzan was standing, gazing at the moon.

"Michikatsu. I was wondering when you would arrive"

I would normally scoff, or say something in return, but my throat was too clamped up for that.

He noticed something was up, he disappeared as I blinked and reappeared in front of me.

His long slender fingers caressed my cheek, feeling how damp it was.

"I'm sorry about your family. I hope your child is well" he said and bowed.

I widened my eyes. Who would have thought that the demon king himself would bow to me?

"Oh don't flatter yourself" He said.

Did I say that out loud?

"Oh no no, don't worry. It's a perk of mine, I can read the thoughts of others. With the right amount of blood of course.

I gazed at him, those blood red eyes of me had an effect. It was mesmerising, entrancing.

I loved them.

"Now, now, let's not get ahead of ourselves. How much blood today? A little bit or a lot?" He asked and cut his hand.

"A lot" I responded.

"The sooner the better!" He said and squeezed the liquid into my mouth.

It was still bitter and sour. I grimaced but swallowed it nonetheless.

"You may feel jaw pain tomorrow, you may develop fangs. If that's the case, see me on Monday. I'll be on the windy guys roof so you won't have to go far. Don't worry!" He said and left.

The information went right over my head.

It all happened so quickly, and we didn't even mention last time.

I guess it's better if we forget

⋆⁺₊⋆ ☾⋆⁺₊⋆ the next day

I woke up and went to the bathroom. My jaw was aching so I was going to ask tamayo fro medicine for pain.

I yawned and grabbed a tooth brush, I applied the paste and was about to let the Bristles graze my teeth when I dropped the bamboo brush into the basin.

I ghasped and help onto the sink to stop myself from falling.

My canines where longer than usual. Both bottom and top. They were neatly pointed and a glossy white.

I lifted a hand up to feel them. They where real alright.

Then, I heard the commotion of the family outside.

I shut my mouth, accidentally biting down hard on my finger causing it to bleed. I sucked the blood up and cleaned it off.

I thought only of the reactions of Koraukou and Immex, Tamayo and Akeno.

I couldn't just waltz out there with my new fangs and expect all to go well. I'll be questioned and ditched.

I thought of multiple ways to excuse the fangs. My mind settling on one.

Say it was a blood demon art. If they don't believe that, then I'll just tell them the truth.

After all, Tamayo knows about my meetings already. Akeno is too young. Immex Is merely Koraukou's girlfriend. And Koraukou is a wind Hashira with a hatred towards my brother and has mild anger issues.

What's the worst that could happen.

⋆⁺₊⋆ ☾⋆⁺₊⋆ - 5 minutes later

"Bullshit Michikatsu!" Koraukou shouted slamming his fist onto the table he was sat at.

Well fuck me what do I do?

"I'm not lying! I encountered a demon and before I could slash it, it hit me with a weird art now I wake up with fangs!" I explained

"That demon either has a shitty ass blood art or your lying!" He shouted back.

I looked to tamayo for reassurance.

She mouthed the words 'tell him'

I sighed

"Your right, I'm lying" I said.

Koraukou paused and looked up at me.

"Eh? Whaddya mean?" He looked shocked

"I'm lying! I didint encounter any demon last night except one you may know the name of. Kibitsuji Muzan. And I have been meeting him for a bit over a month now. He's slowly turning me into a demon under my own will because I always seem to be second to that shitty ass brother of mine! Yoriichi is too dense and emotionless to even realise! So right now I will do anything to be stronger than that man. You got me?" I said.

The room went silent.

I licked my teeth a bit.

"I'm going out" I said.

It was only morning but I couldn't stand to watch him kick me out. Tamayo will explain it all hopefully.

I subconsciously walked. I let my legs guide me.

I somehow ended up at the edge of the forest. I stopped, glacing it the tall trees, topped with morning sunlight.

I sighed.

I was about to walk in when I heard a ringing in my ear.

It was so loud and sudden that I clutched my hands over my ears.

I shook my head vigorously and clamped my eyes shut.

After the sound died down, I opened my eyes again.

Someone was standing infront of me in the woods

All I saw was their ankles. They had a long black yukata and an ankle bracelet. No shoes.

My eyes moved up to meet theirs.

I didint even have time to be shocked when the person knocked me out.

The last I saw where those intoxicating eyes.
