I'm making an utter fool of myself! I've messed up almost every task today, I'm meant to be a pillar for God sakes! And this is how I do simple tasks, pathetic.

"Alright last on the list is to plant the tree."

Gyomei spoke, looking down at the sheet of paper while holding the tree.

"A-alright! Let's g-go plant the t-tree."

Alright (y/n) I swear if we muck this up I will make ourselves do 1000 push ups everyday! And I do not want to do that.

The two of us walked to a garden near oyakata-Sama's home. It had many flowers in it, with roses that wilted from the heat, spider Lily's next to them, and a single lily.

What a weird arrangement of flowers, no colours that go together, just white and red. If I remember correctly ani-san said that the spider Lily represented death, how morbid.

"I think we put it over there."

Gyomei mumbled, pointing over to a patch of fertilised dirt with rocks surrounding it.

"A-ah yeah y-you're right, how s-smart of y-you!"

God I sound like such a suck up, why am I like this.

We began to dig a small hole, large enough to fit all the roots of the developing tree. Gyomei and I didn't talk, it was too hot to even open our mouths.

I think I might faint soon.

I thought, wiping sweat off my forehead. I look up at gyomei to see that he was looking at me.

"I-is everything o-okay g-gyomei-San?"

My voice was shaky, well it's always shaky while I speak to him. For some reason though, him staring gives me a bad feel for what he's going to say. Maybe I did something wrong? Or maybe it's because I annoyed him with all my stuttering.

"Why are you so anxious around me, (l/n)? Do I make you uncomfortable? If I do please tell me, and I will stop."

Oh what do I say now, If I say I'm embarrassed around him he'll ask why, and all I have to say to that is 'because I look up to you!' I mean that sounds so dumb. I mean I haven't even thought about why I look up to him, is because he's strong? Kind? Caring? A good person?

"I- you um r-remind me o-of my b-brother."

That's such a lie, they have almost nothing in common! All they have is that, 1. They're both strong, 2. Both caring, 3. Both kind and 4. They're both good people!

"Oh, I'm sorry. It must be awful being reminded of someone you loved who's no longer with you every single day. I'll keep you in mind while I pray, but for now I'll just say that you can talk to me whenever you need."

His smile was soft and sweet, it was genuine. I think, I couldn't see it well My vision was getting blurry. Everything was spinning, and then I collapsed.

3rd person

A sword Smith Walked away from the hot springs, he was pruning from how long he was there.

"I took to long to bathe, I gotta work early Tomorrow."

He spoke aloud to himself, before he noticed a pot. It was a pretty pot, with flowers decorating it.

"Oh woah, who would leave a pot out here?"

He put his hand close to the hole, to perhaps inspect the inside, but then...

"GYAAAAAAAAAA!!"

he screamed as he was, blood splattered around the pot. Before he was spat out onto a mess on the floor. He was in utter pain. Yet upper moon 5, gyokko couldn't care. In fact he was disappointed.

"Ewwww ewwww! These hillbilly sword smiths just aren't edible. That's fine as well. If we destroy this place the demon hunters will be severely weakened! Hyo!"

Yet as he was monologuing, the other moon hantengu was on the roof.

"Hurry hurry! We found the village thanks to gyokko's efforts. But if we get them angry... hurry, hurry. We have to kill them all, all those who defy!"

Another figure jumped onto the roof, and squatted down next to him.

"Hey, I think you can do it. So don't fail muzan-sama."

Hantengu looked next to him, to see upper moon 0 in the flesh, his hair was no longer tied up, instead it was now short. His haori was no longer blue, but now purple. Hantengu was shocked, he hadn't seen upper moon 0 since the first time they met, which was only a few years ago . What a fight the demon slayers are going to have.

"(N/n)-Chan~! Wake up."

Shinobu spoke with a sing song voice. Trying to get the unconscious girl to wake up. Surprisingly, (y/n)'s eyes opened slightly.

I didn't think she'd actually wake up from that.

Shinobu thought, before getting a cup of water for the wisteria pillar.

"S-Shinobu how long was I out."

(Y/n) asked, her voice was raspy and her head felt dizzy.

"Only an hour, also when was the last time you drank water?"

"This morning. I had a glass of water when I ate breakfast with the kids."

Shinobu gave a hum to the girl, giving her the glass of water she went to get.

"(Y/n)-chan what have I told you about drinking water on hot days, especially when you go to work outside."

(Y/n) gave her a sigh. They've had this conversation oh so many times.

"To drink extra water so I don't pass out... sorry."

"You should say sorry to gyomei, he carried you all the way here! Oh and giyuu was looking for you."

Wait giyuu? Why could he be looking for me...

"Do you know why he was looking for me?"

Shinobu shook her head, before Signalling for the girl to get out of the bed. As she did so her legs wobbled, she almost fell to the floor. Luckily Shinobu caught her.

"I think he went to your estate. Make sure you tell him he has no friends for me."

The butterfly pillar smiled as she said this, letting go of (y/n) for her to walk for herself

No way am I telling him that... it will hurt his feelings too much!

(Y/n) bid her friends goodbye, before going to look for the water pillar.

Where is he? I've looked everywhere and I can't find him.

The (h/c) haired girl sighed as she went back outside.

Caw caw upper moons causing trouble in the sword smith hills caw caw

Leave to help the other immediately caw caw!

Just when I thought I have some relaxing time.

"Thanks for telling me Matsumo! I'll leave right away."

Oh god, upper moons attacking the sword smith village! If they succeed we'll only have one chance! Hold on, tanjirou's there!

Unknown to (y/n), she had just a surprise waiting her at the entrance of the village. The surprise necessarily for her, but more for anyone who tried to come near upper moon 4 & 5 as they were busy working.

I'm on my way tanjirou, please don't die on me!
