Blue's POV
_________________

It has been around three years since Kiriya's birthday, I was now 11 and I was currently practising the 6th and final form of Galaxy Breathing.

I was on a cliff and under me was a valley of trees that were destroyed by me using the 6th form, however that, the 5th form and the 4th form were not mastered.

My wooden sword was destroyed and I had dirt marks and bruises on my face from the destruction I caused. I decided that it was time to make my way back to the Butterfly Estate.

Oh yeah, I was also accompanied by my Sister, Kanao. She was 12 at this point, but she was a little bit smaller than me.

I think she is 5'0 since I'm about 5'2 right now. My chest was feeling a bit of pain, and Kanao noticed this as she handed me my medication. I instantly felt better and so we carried on.

Blue: So Kanao, did you hear that Kagaya might be planning on making Shinobu a Hashira?

She flips her coin as it landed on heads, meaning that she can speak.

Kanao: No I did not, but it is amazing if she does become one

Blue: Yeah, it means that our Sisters are both cool!

We reach back to the estate and were greeted by the Butterfly Trio of Sumi, Naho and Kiyo who are now seven.

Girls: Welcome back!

Blue: Hey there you three! Are you working well?

Sumi: Yes! We helped many people today!

Blue: That's good, Naho is there anything to eat?

Naho: Yes Blue Nii-San! We have onigiri ready for you and Kanao!

Blue: Thanks you three!

Kiyo: Also, Aoi-San wants to see you!

Blue: We will make sure she does

Myself and Kanao eat the onigiri and then make our way to Aoi. She inherited the role of head worker at the estate, she made this choice when she quitted becoming a Demon slayer.

It was after Final Selection, and she said that she was too scared to do any of that. I didn't judge her for this, and I told her that she was brave for just entering the Final Selection.

Aoi: Blue, Kanao you're back, that's goo-what happened to you both?!

Aoi was shocked, and as she screamed, Shinobu walked in, she was 14 now while Kanae just turned 17.

Shinobu: What's wrong Aoi-?.....Blue and Kanao, why are you so dirty?

Blue: Well, I did destroy part of a forest with my 6th Form and Kanao was near me! ^_^

Shinobu: Blue, you Baka, you don't do things like that! Now go take a bath in the hot springs! You too Kanao!

Blue: Fine fine, Kanao want to join me?

Kanao: [Nods]

Aoi: B-Blue! What are you saying?!

Blue: What? You don't want me to be clean?

Aoi: N-No! You can't just share a bath with a gir-

Suddenly, Kanae appeared and stopped Aoi from....ranting at me?

Aoi: Kanae-Sama?

Kanae: It's okay Aoi, even if they're not blood related, they're still family...and remember this is Blue who we are talking about

Aoi: Good point....even if he is a boy, he is still dense as hell -_-

Blue: Uhhh....say what now?

Kanae: Nothing Blue-Kun ^_^

Blue: Oh....okay ^_^

Me and Kanao left, and we were now in the hot springs, with Kanao was sitting opposite me. Time passes, and we were currently relaxing after we had just washed ourselves.

Blue: So Kanao, when will we get Final Selection?

I saw that she grabbed her coin from the side, which confused me on why she brought it here, and flipped it. She caught it and looked at me, it seems she has permission to speak.

I don't know how, but everytime I ask her something, she flips it and it always tells her to speak...well not all the time but mostly.

Kanao: When we master all of our forms

Blue: God Dammit, I still need to master half of my forms! And I just started using the 6th too!

Kanao: I heard that you will be exempted from this, because of how hard you have it

Blue: Really? Yes! That's good news, but.....I'm still falling behind everyone else. People I knew have already become Hashiras, and here I am...still struggling!

I was resting in the hot springs trying to forget about my sorrows on not improving at a fast enough rate. But then suddenly, I felt someone move in the water, I opened my eyes to see that Kanao was resting her head on my right shoulder.

I'm truly blessed with the best family.

It is rare to see Kanao show this type of affection, but then again she is my Sister and she only really does this with me, Kanae, Shinobu, Aoi at times, and the butterfly girls.

Hopefully, she can be a bit more....free.

We finished in the hot springs and got changed, we leave and see Aoi doing her duties, and she turns around when she noticed our figures.

Aoi: Oh good, you're done

Blue: Where is Kanae and Shinobu?

Aoi: They went on a mission just now, to investigate a village with an incident

Blue: Oh okay...I'm gonna follow them!

Aoi: What?! No you won't! You are staying here! This is a dangerous mission!

Blue: Look, I will just see what they do, I'll be fine

I decide to try something that Tengen taught me, he said to use this technique on girls during situations like this. I grab Aoi's hands and look at her with a gentle smile.

I think that's what Tengen said....

Blue: Please, Aoi?

I think it worked because her face went red, she also looked shocked and pulled away from me.

Aoi: Fine! But b-be....safe

Blue: I will [Hugs Aoi] Thanks Aoi-Chan!

I grab a wooden sword as I'm still not allowed to use a real sword just yet. I got ready and quickly followed the two without them noticing me, my stealth was really good that even some demons can't sense me.

We were now in the village, and I chose to hide on top of a roof while my Sisters were investigating. Then I got bored and fell asleep for a bit, but then my eyes shot open once I heard a woman screaming.

I got up and looked around, I noticed that my Sister were still there and that they had also reacted to the screaming. They run towards the direction of the screaming, so I slide down and follow from behind.

I watch them enter a cave and I decided to go through as well, but I wait 2 mins as I don't want them to notice me. Once I enter, I hide on the side and saw the two have a stand off with a Demon.

I listen to their conversation and.....wait....this guy is Upper Moon 2?! What?!

That's bad!

I managed to pick up his name, which was Doma.

Doma: Oh my, and what do we have here?~ Some cute girls, I can't wait until you both become one with me~

Shinobu: Nee-san, this demon is disgusting, can we kill him now?

Kanae: Careful Shinobu, he is Upper Moon 2, we need to be focused and not make any mistakes.

Shinobu: Okay, I'll distract him, you go for the head!

Kanae: Be careful!

I watched as the two fight this Doma fellow, and I noticed that he used some gold fans as his weapons. He also had this weird move where he created ice sculptures of girls to attack with ice.

Both of my Sisters avoided it, and Shinobu started distracting Doma, this gave Kanae the moment to try and slice his head off, but he was saved by another Demon who kicked her away.

Where did she come from? And why does she look familiar?

Wait....that face, the hair.......no.....NO!

Blue: Wait....it can't b-be!

It was....her....

It was Miku, my blood Sister!

Doma: Oh Miku, I was fine, you didn't need to jump in

Miku: Really Doma? You were looking at that girls body before her Sister was about to decapitate you

I look over and saw that Shinobu's face was red, she looked shocked and angry at this revelation.

Shinobu: T-This demon was looking at my b-body?!

Kanae: Shinobu, stay focused, she is Lower Moon 2

Wait....Lower Moon 2? She became apart of the 12 Kizuki?! That's so cool! Oh wait she is a Demon now ._.

Not cool......

No wait! That's cool! I'm almost proud of her! But for now I have to react! I have to help Kanae and Shinobu!

But Blue, you have a wooden sword! I don't care! I'm a brave boy!

I come out of hiding and go for my signature spin kick on the Upper Moon 2 expecting to hit him....but he just blocks it with his hand.

Blue: W-What?!

Kanae: B-Blue?!

Shinobu: What are you doing here?!

Miku: Blue is alive?

Doma picks me up by my neck as my Sisters were alarmed, but they couldn't do anything for my safety, Doma looks at me with a clueless face as if he is a child.

Doma: Oh, and who is this? Do you know him?

Shinobu: He is our little Brother! So let him go!

Miku: Little Brother?

Kanae: Yes, so leave him! He isn't apart of this!

Alright time to do the best thing in this situation!

Blue:

Doma: AHHHH!

Kanae: 0_0

Shinobu: 0_0

Miku: 0_0

Doma: You brat! That really huuuuurt! Bad boy!

Doma knees me in the ribs which really hurt, then he throws me at Kanae who catches me. She sets me onto the floor and begins to check me for any injuries while Shinobu went in front to protect us.

Kanae had a really worried face, and was slightly disappointed

Kanae: Blue, what are you doing here? Why did you follow us? But more importantly are you okay!

Blue: I-I'm good...that hurt, but I'm good

Shinobu: Blue, when we get back I'm going to lecture you for so long on what you did wrong!

Blue: I'm....sorry.....I was worried for you, but I think we should talk later and focus on these two here

Kanae: You mean only us two, you're staying on the sides

Blue: No...I'll be fine, I got a wooden sword and I know all of my breaths with at leas three mastered.

Shinobu: Fine, but if you can't fight then run away!

Blue: Don't worry that's my speciality!

I was looking at Miku, who looked back, it was clear that we both haven't forgotten each other. And Kanae noticed this, and looked at me in the eyes.

Kanae: Blue....do you know Lower Moon 2?

Well.....I guess this question was going to come up at some point, I stood up and stayed quiet for a moment before finally speaking.

Blue: She....is my older Sister, my blood sister...Miku

Kanae: W-What?

Shinobu: Y-Your Sister? Your actual Sister that died! She was a Demon?!

Doma: Oh my, I didn't know that Miku-Chan, why didn't you say anything?

Miku: Because it wasn't of importance at the time, that was my past life as a human

Doma: I see, so this boy has three cute sisters~ Well...this got really interesting hasn't it?~
