[DISCONTINUED] The Art of Destruction || A Kimetsu No Yaiba x (F)Reader Story

Chapter 11

Now with the advantage of seeing the arrows, you were able to move far more efficiently without being grazed anymore by the Temari's. "Nezuko! (Y/N)san!" You turned your head towards him, finally having the opportunity to stop having to dodge left and right continuously. "Let's go outside! Nezuko, take care of the demon up in the trees! (Y/N)san, stay with me, alright?" You gave a thumbs up as you looked at him, "You got it!"

Running out of the house with Tanjiro as his sibling jumped through the trees, you both faced the unknown demon with challenging looks, ready to take her down. She gave a cocky grin as she reiterated the words that she spoke earlier, "The demon hunter wearing hanafuda-like earrings. And the girl wearing the striped (f/c) and (f/c) haori." She smiled wickedly, "No question," she said, here eyes becoming darker. "I'll bring that head of yours to him, you with the hanafuda-like earrings. And you..." her gaze shifting over to you as you squinted at her with caution, "I'll just break one of your legs and bring you back to him alive." Her words slipped from her mouth like the tongue of a snake. "You're not going to break anything, demon," you spat with hostility. 'And I'll make damn sure of that.' 

The demon laughed with delight, "Oh how fun this is!" She exclaimed as she three the Temari's at you and your friends direction. The two of you split into different directions; Tanjiro going left and you going right. Three balls went to you as the other three went to your friend. "Just a little longer (Y/N)san! Just keep going!" Tanjiro yelled out as you weaved through the trees like a string being pulled. You yelled 'okay' to him as you continued focusing on evading the balls that followed you like wild dogs. 

However, the once flying arrows disappeared, leaving the Temari's to aimlessly keep flying towards you. 'Now's my chance!' Stopping your feet and twisting your body immediately, you unsheathed your sword as you suck the air between your tight teeth. 'Breath of Destruction! Fourth  form!'  With one quick vertical strike, the tip of the blade sliced deeply into the ground, 'Nature's Wrath!' With no warning, the ground spiked up, striking each of the balls mid air. With no second thought about the toys, you sprinted towards the demon to help take her down now that an opportunity has opened up. 

You rushed the demon from behind and saw a quick glimpse of Tanjiro making his way over to the demon as well in mid form. Hoping that he would cut the demons head off, you took the chance to make sure that the demon couldn't move when Tanjiro attacked her. 'Breath of Destruction! Sixth form!' You forced your body to lower itself as you set your sights on the demons legs, 'Eternal Forest Fire!' 

From the tip all the way to the bottom of the sword, it was enveloped with flames. Once the blade slashed through the skin of the demon, the flames from the sword trailed behind it like a wild flame untamed. Once you finished your attack you saw Tanjiro fly over you, his own trail of water following behind him. 

Sliding away after slicing the demons legs off, you looked back with a bad feeling erupting in your chest. You watched as the demons upper torso and it's now nubs for legs begin to slip as it's arms fell to the ground with defeat. But that wasn't what you were worried about.'The head. Where's the head?' Your eyes darted back and forth, trying to find the decapitated head, not listening to whatever the hell Tanjiro was yelling about. 

That voice that you hoped would have been silenced erupted with laughter, you grit your teeth in annoyance, 'Damn it! He didn't cut her head off!' Her upper, arm-less torso went up and down as she chuckled darkly, "You think you're going to extract blood from us?" Your lips were left ajar at her words, 'Was that what he was yelling about?' You thought. You looked over at Tanjiro for a spare second and could see his eyes dead-set on the demon, waiting for her to do something. "I don't know what you're scheming," her tone lowering, "but I won't allow you to do anything to displease him!"Her head turned towards Tanjiro as she said her words, her back laying on the dirt. "If you think you can extract blood from us Twelve Demon Moons, then have at it!" Her smile widening as her eyes glinted with blood lust.
