You woke up with a hangover, but you left early and went to the river that was close to your house out some spare clothes for your sister and killed some animals. You drained some blood in a bucket, then put it in a tree. You headed back to the butterfly mansion as fast as you could with the animals you killed and started cooking them up.

"Y/n?!" Inosuke yelled as you looked at him with the same dull look you always did.

"What?" You asked.

"New blood is in. Want to show them what a real Hashira looks like. You can beat people senseless," he said as you were eating.

"Not interested," you said.

"How about if I beat you in a workout challenge and I get to weld your sword for as long as I want," he chuckled, making you sigh.

"Again with my sword, I am not giving you my sword," you said.

"Chicken?! Are you afraid of losing to the great Inosuke?! Why do you look awful?" He asked as you sighed.

"I got drunk last night," you said.

"We could have had a drinking contest!!!" He yelled as you looked at him, annoyed.

"Like you could hold your liquor. You are already annoying enough that you don't need alcohol," you said.

"How about this, I win. We have a drinking challenge. You win.. I'll let you do whatever you want to me," he said, making you raise an eyebrow.

"Anything?" You asked.

"Anything you want," he smirked.

"Even bury, you up to your neck in dirt and leave you there all night?" You asked.

"Yes," he said as you smiled.

"Fine, I will. Let me get ready," you said as he smiled.

He left your room and hoped he was going to be able to confess to you. He hoped that if he did, then you wouldn't leave. He had a plan to ask you out at the end of the day privately so you could say yes or no. He wanted you to be comfortable around him and he just wanted you to feel safe but at the same time, he didn't know if he could control himself around you because he already kissed you and you did things to him without even knowing about it.

"Race you!" Inosuke yelled outside your room, making you smile.

He took off running, and after you put your top on, you went after him and still beat him there. There were newbies there making you smile as some of the guys were big but struggling hard to keep up with Tengen's training.

"Okay, guys, this is Y/n the light Hashira, and this is Inosuke the... beast Hashira?" He said more like a question Inosuke was trying to trip you, but you were dodging him and then kicked him to a tree that was twenty feet away. The tree fell, and Inosuke came back while everyone looked at you shocked.

"I'll still beat you in training!" He growled.

"Oh yeah, you better. You talk big for someone who has never beat me in a real fight," you said.

"I will," he smiled.

You two grabbed the biggest guys to carry on your backs and took off running the course Tengen made with his wives, making everyone shocked. Once again, you could keep up with a man. Then you did some other exercises, making you both sweat, but you two added more than you both added to more or less to show off. You two found two perfect trees and went back to back. You two hacked arms and started running up the trees, making Tengen look at both of you like you were crazy. You made this one up as a trust exercise since Inosuke didn't trust you, and he wanted to prove how much better he was than you. But little did he know if you were faster than he was and better than him in most ways. He since then decided to train with you when you were around. You both went up the tree, making Inosuke laugh as the tree gap was getting bigger, so you both let go and started running up the tree until you both reached the top.

"You are getting better. At least I don't have to catch you when you fall," you said sd you looked over the place and saw how beautiful it was.

Too bad you weren't going to be around much longer. You wanted to tell Inosuke, but you knew he would stop you. You wish you could tell him you loved him but you couldn't. During one of your breaks, you sent a letter to your parents saying you accepted the marriage proposal. You looked at Inosuke, and your heart was broken. You did love him so much, even though you never showed it.

"Sword training is next!" Inosuke yelled as he saw the wooden sticks being handed out.

You looked at him and smiled softly.

"Tengen, save five for us!" You said as he looked at you oddly.

"Five?" He asked.

"Two for you three for me, you know I'm harder on the wooden swords," you said as you both got down.

Tengen started training the new guys while you two were going against each other. You got one, but he got two. You took off your top, and all the guys were now very distracted seeing you only having your boobs wrapped up with a cloth.

"Pay attention to me and not her! Some female demons will end up killing you if you get distracted by their beauty!" Tengan roared, scaring the newbies.

"Ground rules?" You asked.

"No kicking me in the balls!" He smiled.

"No going after my top then," you said as he smirked.

"Deal," he said as you both started going at it.

After an hour, everyone was watching the both of you going full force on each other. you broke your wooden sword on Inosuke's wooden sword, so you got the other two and smiled as you both started to fight harder.

"No way," a new guy said as you were going easy on Inosuke but not as easy as you used to.

After five hours and it was getting close to dark out, you tripped Inosuke but caught Inosuke with an arm. You quickly kissed him, then dropped him, making him shocked.

"Hey!" Inosuke yelled.

"Punishment for losing against me is also an alternative to me kicking you in the balls. You're welcome, I also had raw onions and fried fish too," you said as you picked up a raw onion and started eating it like an apple.

He wasn't even mad at you. He was extremely turned on by the way you did that. He wished he could pin you against a tree and make out with you the way you did the night before. Except he was willing to go all the way if it meant you were staying.

Once you made it to the butterfly mansion, you got red for bed. Inosuke went to your room and knocked so you opened the door.

"Yeah?" You asked as he saw a little hint of a shine in your eyes making him smile a little.

But then he panicked, seeing how pretty you looked. Your clothes were loose, so you were still getting ready for bed. He wanted to say so many things, but you were out of his league. He knew you liked him, but he didn't know if it was drunk you or you in general. You did kiss him and try to sleep with him, but you were drunk.

"I didn't say good night to you earlier," he said after a while of staring.

"Oh goodnight," you said as he went back to his room, annoyed with himself.

He laid down in his bed, trying to build up the courage to ask you to stay and be with him.

"Why are you upset?" Tanjiro asked as Inosuke looked over at him, annoyed 

"I'm not upset!" He growled.

"Okay, my apologies. Good night, Inosuke, goodnight Zenitsu, goodnight Nezuko!" He said as he went to sleep.

You stayed up late writing letters to all the Hashiras saying why you were leaving and what was at stake if you didn't leave. You put the letters next to the Hashiras and got your sword. You tied your note to Inosuke to your sword because where you were going, you wouldn't need it. But you told him that you loved him, and by the time any of the Hashira were to find you, you would be dead. It was the price you were willing to pay because of how crazy your family was.

Inosuke was fanned out and sleeping heavily, so you kissed him on the cheek and then left your sword next to him. You went back to your room, and a guy came with your midnight tea like usual. You drank it rather quickly to calm your nerves about your younger sisters' travels. You already sent your bird after her to lead her here once you got on the carriage to marry the old man who murdered his wives for fun.

The carriage was supposed to come tonight because that's how your parents did things. They loved doing things in the darkness of the night to hide how evil they were. But after a couple of minutes, you started feeling weak, and your eyesight was becoming blurry. You tried to say something but you couldn't speak and then you couldn't move. You fell sideways, and some men quickly went into your room and took you. Even though you tried to fight them, you couldn't fight them. They put you in the carriage, and you passed out before you knew what happened.
