⚠️ Warning/s: Death, Violence. ⚠️
Flashback:
"You should, but that's if you can kill me. My name's Enmu, nice to meet you...?"
"Y/N, Y/N L/N."
With that, I dashed at him, preparing myself for Galaxy Breathing's first form: Heliacal Rising.
Y/N POV (Age 14):
Timeskip:
Panting heavily, I took a deep breath before turning back to look at Tanjiro. The poor boy had a gash across his stomach, made by a needle that a boy held. Inosuke was also there too, injured, but less so. Luckily, I came out of the fight unscathed for the most part, with a few scratches and bruises here and there.
Enmu was killed, and his head rolled on the ground and began to fade away. All I could hear from this distance was him saying about how he would get revenge until he was completely gone.
I rushed over to Tanjiro just as Rengoku came out of the damaged train. It had been flipped on its side due to Enmu's blood demon art, and he had merged himself with the train.
Hoping it was over, I glanced over to see Rengoku helping Tanjiro with his wounds, making sure he was breathing properly and maintaining his Total Concentration Breathing: Constant. By doing this and focusing, he'd be able to pinpoint the location of his wound and still the bleeding.
Luckily he was able to do just that with Rengoku's guidance, however, that did not mean he was now fully healed. As expected of a Hashira, Rengoku came out of the ruins of what was once a train completely uninjured.
A sudden boom rang through the air, as a new presence made itself apparent to me. It was strong and had a defined aura, one much greater than that of Enmu's. There was no doubt in my mind, a Uppermoon. But what would they be doing here? Was it the same one from my childhood?
As the mist surrounding the unexpected visitor cleared, I saw that it was Uppermoon 3, not the one I had encountered all of those years ago. Fear flashed through my eyes, as a strong determination overcame Rengoku.
Could Rengoku handle this? He must have wasted some energy on that train, and it's Uppermoon 3 we're talking about! Yes, he's a Hashira, and I do believe in him, but I'm uncertain of his abilities as I haven't been blessed enough to see him in action.
Sorrow and nerves swirled in my stomach, they were going to fight - Would Rengoku make it out of this alive? A bad feeling settled in the pit of my stomach, as I thought - due to my skill level - I probably wouldn't be able to interfere. I'd only get in the way as my skills are below that of a Hashira, yet here I am, doubting his abilities.
By the way Uppermoon 3 made their introduction, I'm sure that they focus on a martial arts discipline, their blood demon art probably enhances their already-strong abilities. However Rengoku uses Flame Breathing, how suited would that be? Based on that, Uppermoon 3, or as he introduced himself to be, Akaza, will probably use airwaves to create destruction from his attacks. Wind and Fire? It could go almost any way, the Wind could put out the Fire or the Fire could grow thanks to it. It depends on how strong the Wind and Fire is. We know that the Wind will be immensely strong, but can Rengoku's Fire handle it?
Akaza refused to fight me, saying he doesn't fight women. This gets on my nerves, but he'll have to deal with it as I'll try, with my new skills, to interfere if I can without being a burden. I want to help Rengoku in the fight, and make sure he doesn't lose. I will not let him lose.
