"Would you have still been here if I spent time with you? Maybe then you wouldn't have left us so soon."
~Mitsuri Kanroji 🍡
Now waking up from her slumber the raven haired female stretch her limbs only to stop almost immediately. She sucked in a breathe as she patted her surroundings, it was dark, but she was widen awake.
"Am...I dead? About to be buried...I know the mission was successful....." The young female mumbled as she stares blankly at nothing, but soon enough she heard a voice outside of the box she was in.
"Dammit, people are coming. I gotta get a uniform now while...ugh! This lid is too heavy!" The voice complained from the other side. "Time for my secret move! Myahaha!"
Taking that as her sign,she kicked the lid open with all her force causing to to break open before she soon looked around her surroundings.
"Gah! You're awake?!" A talking raccoon cat said shocked as (Y/N) simply stared at the creature.
"Tanuki..." She mumbles now fully stepping out of the coffin.
"Ha? What do you mean tanuki?! I'm no tanuki, I'm The Great Grim!" Grim boasted before he soon gestured at the female rather annoyed. "Gimmie your uniform and you better be quick about it!"
(Y/N) stares at the creature now known as Grim with an expression still unchanged. With his mention of a uniform she look down at her outfit only to notice she was wearing a black robe. The hood seemed to be covering her face so she couldn't be seen and her nirichin blade seem to still be attach to her holster making her sigh in relief.
"Cause if you don't, I promise you..you'll regret it!" The strange cat, raccoon creature spoke making the female deadpan.
"What.."
"Hurry up, I'm on a real tight schedule here!" He said as he soon activated his flames.
(Y/N) blinked taking in the strange creature's words. "I don't have time for you..." She spoke before soon walking away simply wanting to figure out where she was at.
She wandered around passing by various rooms for a bit before she came across a library. It looked rather nice in her opinion, but before she could take a step inside blue flames suddenly stopped her.
"You foolish human! Did you really think you could get away from me?! Now unless you wanna get burnt to a crisp take off that- Me YOWW! Hey that hurts! What gives?!" The strange cat spoke out angrily.
"Consider it Tough Love." A tall male wearing a crow's mask spoke as he walked towards them both. His appearance reminded the female of her own kasugai crow making her wonder if he was also around.
"Ah, it seems I have found you at last. How splendid, I would assume that you are one of this years new students? My, it seems you were quite eager to make your first debut, but bringing such a poorly trained familiar with you is clear violation of school rules."
At this (Y/N) furrowed her eyebrows as the feeling of confusion suddenly hit her.
"I'm a Demon Slayer...I've never gone to school.."
"Familiar? Ha, as if I'd be the familiar to some lowly human! Now then, let me go!" Grim said as he thrashed around.
"Yes, yes rebellious familiar always say this. Do be quiet now for a bit won't you?" The male before slapping a hand over Grim's mouth.
"Mmmrph!"
"Dear me, out of all the students I have dealt with, you're the first to have enough effrontery to open their own gate and step out. Does the very idea of patience elude you? Well no matter. The orientation ceremony has already begun, now let us return to the Mirror Chamber."
"Gates..?" The female mumbles.
"Ah, you have awaken in a room full of gates, did you not? All student here at the campus arrived by passing through such gates. Although, typically students have enough restraint to wait until I open them before waking up."
"I think I broke mine..." She says as she gave him a stare. "I apologize, I simply kicked it down...."
"You...you broke- kicked it open?" The male asked before soon clearing his throat as he composed himself once more. "Ahem well, now is not the time for such chatter. Go on now, make haste." He said as he gently pushed the dark haired female forward.
"Wait, where exactly am I?"
"Oh? Have you not fully regained consciousness? Mm it seems the teleportation magic must have muddled your memories. Well these sort of things do tend to happen, I suppose. Truly my generosity is untold." He said as the both began to walk.
"What exactly is going on and who is this weird crow guy..."
🌊🌊🌊🌊🌊🌊
The walked towards wherever they were going was rather quite. Not that (Y/N) minded it much, she simply looked around her new surroundings taking it all in. Soon enough her thoughts were cut off when the male next to her coughed gaining her attention.
"This is Night Raven College. An institution for students all over whom demonstrate a great use of magic. It's the most prestigious academy in all Twisted Wonderland. I am Dire Crowley, I serve as headmage of this prestigious school."
"Magic?" The female spoke a bit confused.
"Only those who are seen as worthy by the Dark Mirror are eligible to attend this school. Those who are selected will be summoned here through the gates. A black carriage should have come to meet you."
(Y/N) stayed silent for a bit then thought back into her strange dream she had. "I remember hearing horses..."
"The black carriage serves to retrieve students that are chosen by the Dark Mirror, they also bare gates that connect to this campus. Sending a carriage to meet up with our students is a time honored tradition."
The Water Hashira stared up at the male with a deadpanned expression. "I was in a coffin....I thought I died." She mumbled.
Crowley simply ushered her out to keep moving. He didn't seem to have heard her last comment. "Now now, let us attend to your orientation."
"Mmff! Mmmphff!" The sound of Grim's muffled words could be heard as he tried his best to speak.
🌊🌊🌊🌊🌊🌊
"Alright, so we're done with the orientation and dorm assignments? Very well. Alright new students, let me be clear. At Heartslabyul, I am the law. If you break the rules, it's off with your head!" Spoke a redhead male.
A long haired brunette male let out a yawn, boredom clearly written on his face. "Finally it's over, that ceremony was boring as ever. I'm going back to the dorm, if you're in Savanaclaw House just follow me."
"New students! Please allow me to be the first to congratulate you on your achievement today. As dorm leader of Octavinelle House, I am honored to have the opportunity to provide you in what I would only hope would be a successful campus experience." A male with glasses said.
"Hey, does anyone know where the headmage went off to? He disappeared in the middle of the ceremony." Spoke a very handsome looking male."
"Tch..some headmage he is." A voice came from a tablet.
"Oh, maybe he had a tummyache?" A red eyed male said.
Soon enough the doors burst open revealing Crowley himself, with (Y/N) trailing not too far.
"I most certainly did not!"
"Speak of the devil." The redhead male said.
"If you all must know, I was searching for the new student who failed to show up for orientation." Crowley told them all before turning to face the female. "You are the only one who hasn't been assigned a dorm yet. Please step up to the Dark Mirror and be quick about it. Don't worry, I'll watch your weasel."
"Grrr!"
The female looked at the mirror and walked up to it. It was the same on that appeared in her dream.
"State your name."
"Tomioka (Y/N).."
"....Tomioka (Y/N), the nature of your soul is......" The mirror said before suddenly going quiet for a bit. "...It is unclear to me."
Crowley and the other students stood staring in utter shock. "What did you say?"
"I sense no magical power from this one. But an alluring flower, courageous and strong she's ready to lay her life out on the line. Therefore, no dorm would be appropriate."
"Wait...she?!" The headmage said going up to the female before suddenly earning a nod from her. She removed her cloak now standing in her slayer uniform. Nirichin blade attached to its holster as she reveals her dark raven hair and striking dark blue eyes.
"A girl?"
"Her eyes are so pretty!"
"I'm very much ok with this."
"Hey hey, she's pretty cute!"
"Is that a sword?"
(Y/N) heard comments about her left and right but she didn't bother to respond to any of them.
Crowley's eyes widen before looking at the mirror. "Are you purposing that the black carriage went to retrieve a person who can't even use magic? This is absurd! The student selection process has not blundered once in its century of existence! How could this have happened?!"
"Mmmph! Nnghh..." Grim's calls muffled out before gasping. "Me! Let me have this student's seat!"
"Not so fast you hyperactive weasel!"
"Unlike that human I can actually use magic! So let me be a student here! Look, I'll even show you!l My spells are just the cats meow!"
"Everyone get down!" The readhead male said.
"Myahaha!" Grim laughed making fire appear everywhere.
"UWA! IT HURTS, MY BUTT IS ON FIRE!" A white haired boy shouted making the raven haired female sigh a bit at the chaos.
(Y/N) calmly approached the white haired male before taking off her haori and using it to pat away the flame from the male. Meanwhile those who where standing behind the female got a clear view of the back of her uniform.
滅 = Destroy
Reading that alone made some of the male's, even Crowley slightly nervous. What was that supposed to mean, and just how strong was she?
"Ah, thank you so much!" The white haired male said thankfully as he held onto one her hands. The sudden gesture making her dark blue orbs widen a bit slightly taken aback.
"...yes, you're welcome."
"Someone catch that blasted animal before it sets the entire school ablaze!" Crowley said.
"Ugh..can I go now or what?" The long haired brunette male said obviously not wanting to be there anymore.
"Oh, I thought you fancied yourself a hunter. Go and help yourself to that plump little morsel!" The handsome man said.
"It's too much effort. Do it yourself."
"Please allow me to handle this Headmage Crowley. If none of you are up for the task of catching him, I will accept the task." The male with glasses said.
"Wtg, Azul. Already racking up those participation credits!" The voice from the tablet said.
"I'm sorry, but we're my instructions unclear?!" The headmage said clearly angry.
The raven haired female narrowed her eyes at the scene, the chaos in front of her making (Y/N) sigh a bit as she she stares at some of the screaming students and roaring flames making her deadpan at the sight.
Now drawing her blade from its holster. The female took in a breathe, sprinting forward towards the cat like creature and it's flames.
Grim seems to notice the female and threw more flames at her direction. His eyes widen with an expression seemingly a bit panicked as he stared at the female sprinting towards him at a fast pace.
"This human...what, does she plan to kill me?! What the hell!?"
"Careful now Tanuki.." The female murmurs as she held a grip on her nirichin blade.
"Water Breathing; Second Form: Water Wheel."
(Y/N) said to herself sprinting into a jumping as her body spun creating a wheel of water which put out the flames. To avoid potentially harming anyone with her blade she lodged it in front of Grim making the poor monster creature coward back slightly in fear.
"Ok, fire is put out. He's calm and won't cause trouble now...." The female spoke bluntly as everyone simply stared at her in shock at what just happened.
Getting over his shock a redhead male soon approached the female. "That's good, thank you. Now then..."
"Off With Your Head!"
"Ha? What's this?! What are you doing?!" Grim shouted.
"The Queen of Heart's Rule 23: "One must never bring a cat to a formal affair." "You being a cat, your very presence here is a clear violation of this rule. You will leave the premises immediately at once."
"Who are you calling a cat? I'm no cat! Don't put a collar on me! I'll simply burn this thing right off!" He said as he then tried to use his fire only to fail. "Hey, what's this? Why can't I use my flames?"
"Until I remove that collar you won't be able to use any kind of magic. You're nothing but a lowly pet cat now." The redhead said giving a small smirk.
"W...what? Who are you calling a pet?! I'm no pet!"
"Oh, there's no need to worry. I have no interest in keeping you as a pet. I will remove the collar once you are extracted from the campus."
"Good as always Riddle! Your signature spell can lock any kind of magic. It's very impressive." The male who was named Azul said. I just have to have it...Ah, I mean, I just have so much respect for it."
"(Y/N) I thought I made myself clear, when I said you are to be responsible for your familiar." Crowley said rather sternly towards the female. "Now then, please discipline-" Crowley was then cut off by the female who simply removed her sword from where it was lodge before sheathing it.
"He's not mine. I never said he was mine to begin with..." (Y/N) said with a rather bland tone.
"He's...not yours? Oh, I see." Crowley then coughed nodding as if saying he understood. "Very well, then I will have the raccoon expelled from the campus. I will even spare him from becoming the next meal."
"My my, I am ever so generous truly indeed." Crowley said complimenting himself. "Please take this raccoon away and have him thrown out."
"Noo, no no! You can't do this! Let me go!" Grim cried out as he was soon grabbed and dragged out soon after. "You fools will remember my name! I will go down in the magic history books, just you all wait!"
Watching as Grim was taken away the raven haired female let out a small sigh. "Almost as chaotic as that boar kid..." She murmurs.
"Well then, I must apologize for the sudden unexpected commotion. I would like to declare now that the orientation ceremony has officially come to an end. All Housewardens, please except your student to their proper dorms. Crowley said as looked back into the crowd of students. "Hm, I don't believe I've seen Housewarden Draconia of Diasomnia anywhere.."
"And that surprises you? Dude's a total recluse." A male with long brown hair said.
"Wait a sec...Did anyone even invite him?" The male with red eyes said.
Hearing those sudden words the female's eyes slightly widen. She thought back about her fellow Hashira and the Corps, every memory slowly hitting her. They didn't invite this Draconia guy to this ceremony event, just like they never invited her to anything back at the Corps.
"So...he's not too different from me...."
"If you're that worried about him missing out, maybe you should have told him yourself." The handsome male spoke.
"Yea, maybe but I don't know him too well either...."
"Draconia? Like Malleus Draconia? That Draconia? One student questioned.
"So it's true. He really does go to school here." Another one spoke.
"Yikes." Someone added.
"Ah, just as I would have expected. I figured I would come down and see for myself whether or not Malleus has made an appearance. But it seems once again, he was not informed about his presence being needed at this ceremony." A male with black hair and pink highlights said. He seem too shake his head a bit in dissatisfaction as he spoke.
The female simply grunted hearing the male's words as her gaze castes down away from the crowd. "I can understand the feeling.." (Y/N) softly spoke to herself as the male with pink highlights gave her a sympathetic look to which she didn't notice.
"Upon ever meeting, I'm sure you both would get along pleasantly."
"You have my sincerest apologies. I assure this oversight was not intended as an insult towards him at all." Azul said.
"I mean, you must admit he's not exactly the easiest person to strike up a conversation with." Riddle said.
"Well, no matter. Everyone who has been assigned to House Diasomnia, please follow me." The male with pink highlights said.
"I just hope he doesn't sulk about this..." He mumbles to himself.
Soon, one by one all the students started to take their leave.
Riddle approached the female before giving her a small smile. "Thank you very much for the help." He said, to which (Y/N) gave a small nod.
"Hai, you're welcome..." She said before the redhead left along with the rest of the students.
"You have quite the power you wield. It was fascinating to watch. I've never seen anyone move at such a swift yet elegant pace before, and with water no less." The male named Azul said as he smirk at her.
"I must have it..." He mumbled the last part to himself as he walk away. (Y/N) narrowed her eyes watching his disappearing figure keeping a mental note to keep her guard up around him.
The male with long hair walked past her simply giving her a smirk before walking off making the female simply stare at his figure slightly confused.
The handsome man smile at her before giving her a small smile. "Let's hope to see each other real soon." He spoke before walking off into the crowd.
The red eyed male cheerfully approached the female before taking a hold of both her hands and offering her a warm smile. "Thanks again for saving me, you should totally come by Scarabia! I could have something prepared for you and we could get to know each other better!"
(Y/N) stared at the male before glancing down at their hands not minding it to much she simply gave him a small nod. His positive demeanor reminded the female of Tanjiro making her give a strained bitter smile.
"At least this guy looks genuine..."
"...Ok" She spoke softly making the male smile more if possible before he ran off along with the others.
(Y/N) soon heard a voice. coming from a strange device making her eyes slightly widen feeling now a bit cautious. She didn't exactly know what it was but she could her a voice from it before a click was heard soon ending.
"Strange..."
"What was that.." She mumbles as a feeling a confusion hit her slightly all the while the male with black hair and pink highlights approached her with a small smile adorned on his face.
"Please feel free to visit us at Diasomnia anytime you'd like. I'm sure he'd love to meet you." The male said before soon taking his leave as the female could only stare at him.
"His appearance is that of a demon, but his demeanor is like Oyakata sama almost...a bit gentle it seems...."
"Well (Y/N)" Crowley started off. "This surely was quite the unfortunate turn of events. I apologize but you will not be attending Night Raven College. Of course you do realize that I cannot allow a student here who wields no magical abilities. But please, don't worry. We'll have the Magic Mirror return you home safely. Now then, please step into the gate and visualize the place from which you came from.
The young slayer walked up to the gates and visualized the Slayer Corps. Oyakata sama, the Kamado siblings, even her fellow Hashira. She thought about it all.
"Oh Dark Mirror, return this soul to where it belongs.
After a couple of seconds nothing happened, the mirror stayed silent.
Crowley then cleared his throat nervously. "Let's....Let's try this again shall we? Oh Magic Mirror, return this sou-" He said but was then cut off by the mirror.
"There is no such place."
"What?"
There is no such place in this world where this soul belongs. None at all."
(Y/N)'s blue orbs widen slightly at the mirrors words. There's nowhere she belongs, really? The Slayer narrows her eyes feeling slightly annoyed.
"Tch, great now the Mirror is talking down on me...."
"But how can't that be?" Crowley asks in disbelief. "My my, today has just been quite the chaotic day indeed."
The mirror didn't respond to the headmage. Simply remaining quiet.
"This has never happened throughout my long tenure as headmage. I must confess that I am at a bit of a loss." Crowley admitted as he turned to face the girl. "Please tell me, from where exactly do you come from?"
"Japan's Taisho Era...but I'll assume this isn't it." The girl said as she stared up at the male. "I'm part of an organization known as the Demon Slayer Corps, where we work to eradicate demons.."
"Hm I see.." Crowley put his hand under his chin as he stared at the female. "I must give you my sincerest apologies but I am not familiar with such a place nor organization. I am intimately acquainted with all and every origin of each student who has ever come here, and yet...this mysterious place and organization of yours indeed leaves me at a confuse state. Let's go to the library, we'll be able to look it up from there." He concluded as he soon started to walk off towards the library.
"Very well." She said as she followed behind the male.
🌊🌊🌊🌊🌊🌊
They both looked through many, many books and after an hour of searching...
Nothing.
"It's just as I would have expected. This organization you have mentioned is non existent in any of these books, your home however." Crowley said as he placed a hand on his chin. "The Taisho Era is mentioned a bit in some books but...are you quite sure your are from such a place and era? I wouldn't be any sort of lie now would it? If so that would explain you clothes....."
(Y/N) raised an eyebrow at him as she simply chose to ignore his last comment. "I wouldn't lie about my position at the Corps. I am a Hashira, more specifically the Water Hashira. And the Corps is an organization unknown to the government." She spoke as a small frown was soon evident on her features.
"I see...well the only reason I see it would be is you were somehow summoned here by magic? Perhaps another dimension? From ours to yours." Crowley finished.
"Show me everything you have brought here with you. Do you have some sort of identification? Perhaps a drivers license? Or...well even a shoe?"
(Y/N) thought to herself for a bit before remembering what she had on her once she awoke from the coffin. "Simply my Slayer uniform that I'm currently wearing and my nirichin blade."
"Though my crow is usually sometimes around me, but I don't-" Soon the female was cut off when a certain crow flew down only to perch himself on her shoulder. "Oh, well it looks like you're here as well."
"Ok, well is this enough for you?" She said as she look up at Crowley on to have him stare intently at the crow no with the female.
"Ah, so this one must be her familiar. How charming."
"Oh..no no I'm afraid not..." He said as he let out a sigh. "Well this is quite the predicament. I cannot just have someone without a talent for magic wandering around this academy. And yet, as headmage and educator, I am reluctant to throw away such a young person with a guardian or a single clue to where they are. Truly my generosity knows no bounds." Crowley said as he gave a small smile.
(Y/N) could only stare at the male before her with a deadpan expression as she heard the words coming from his mouth.
"Hm, let's see...oh! There's actually a vacant building in this campus. It was actually used as a dorm a long time ago, but with a bit of proper cleaning it should be a manageable place to live in. Out of the pure kindness of my heart, I shall allow you to live there for the time being. In the meantime we shall investigate other ways to send you back to your home." He said as he smiled at the young female before him. "Indeed I am a very generous man truly."
"Sure..."
"Well then, I'll take you to your dorm. The building itself is a lot older, but it does have...plenty of character to itself."
🌊🌊🌊🌊🌊🌊
The female deadpanned as she stared at the run down looking building. "This is it? You want me to stay here?"
"Quite delightful isn't it? Well then, get yourself right on in now." He said while gently nudging the female forward.
She looked around the building, memorizing every corner and turn. The building itself from the inside looked like it would fall if someone were to sneeze at any given moment. (Y/N) gave a mental note to start fixing around the building as soon a she can.
"This should help keep things at bay for the time being. Now if you'll excuse me, I should probably return to my research. Please do find a way to keep yourself busy, but don't let me catch you wandering around the campus."~ Crowley bid her goodbye before leaving and closing the door behind him.
Once she watched his figure leave the female sighed at her misfortune. Broken roof, dusty walls and floors, cracked floor boards.
"I should probably start on my new room..." She mumbles to herself now picking up a broom that she found not to far and went to work.
🌊🌊🌊🌊🌊🌊
After a while she was finished. (Thanks to author magic and lazy writing)
Livinging room
The room practically replicated her room back at her estate if not better. With the tatami mats and even sliding doors. It almost made her smile a bit at the thought. "All done.."
"Gah! It's...it's pouring out there!" A familiar voice said.
"Oh tanuki, it's you.." The female bluntly stated as she stared at Grim.
"I am not a tanuki, my name is Grim! Did they really think I wouldn't sneak back into the campus the second I escaped their prying gazes. You all have no idea what I'm capable of! And I'm not giving up on going here just cause I got kick out one time. And if you think otherwise we'll you got another thing coming!"
(Y/N) blinked her blue orbs staring down at Grim before nodding at him understanding. "Why is it you want to get into this place? What's so special about it?"
"Well isn't it obvious? I was born to do this! I'm a magical prodigy who's got the making of the most powerful mage who ever lived! So I've been waiting and waiting for my moment when that black carriage would come for me. And yet nothing."
"How upsetting..." She responded rather bluntly.
"Well that Magic Mirror has no eye for talent!"
"I don't think mirrors have eyes even if they're magical..."
Grim ignored the female's comment and smirked. "So I simply took it upon myself and came here. You humans don't understand the mistake your making! Not letting me in is a total loss!"
"I wouldn't know much about that kind of magic stuff, but keep trying and prove yourself little tanuki. It won't be long before they notice you." She spoke.
"The negligence this school and carriage has for you almost reminds me of someone..." She mumbles referring to herself as her crow sadly nods in agreement.
Grim stayed quiet as he listen to the girl catching the last few words but deciding against saying anything. "Yea thanks...ya know, your not too bad for a human."
"Really? Well thank you...you would probably be the second person to say something similar along those lines to me." She spoke before letting out a sigh.
"Ah..I see." The tanuki responded as he glanced up at the female then turning his gaze at her blade. "Hey (Y/N) why do you have a katana with you?"
(Y/N) grunted in response as she place a hand on the handle of her katana. "Where I'm from, we slay demons. There are more people like me and I hold a high position known as a Hashira, I'm the Water Hashira. We risk our lives everyday on the field to protect others from demons, though the corps is an organization unknown to our government..." She said as she thought about all her memories she had in the Corps.
"Sounds like a pretty easy job!" Grim exclaimed.
"You think so?" The female questioned as she rose an eyebrow. "The demon are capable of regenerating their limbs and can preform demon blood art. Though they can only be killed by a special blade known as nirichin by having their heads cut off or even being exposed to the sun light. The demons back home serve a demon king, he's the strongest demon and controls the 12 Kizuki and all other demons under him."
Grim fell silent once again upon hearing the female's words. Everyday she practically risks her life in order to protect others. He would be lying if he didn't think that wasn't admirable. "Wow...I don't think I would be able to actually do that."
"Well it's not an easy job to take lightly, you risk your life everyday." (Y/N) spoke glancing at her crow. "Now let's go to sleep I've fixed up a room so we should be ok."
"Ok just lead the way!"
🌊🌊🌊🌊🌊🌊
The duo made their way towards the hallway, filled with plenty of dust and cobwebs just like the room before the Hashira had fixed earlier.
"It's manageable..I suppose" She spoke as she continued forward with Grim as they both then felt a cold breeze followed by whispers. At this the raven haired female unsheathed her katana ready for anything.
"H..hey, what was that?" Grim spoke as fear soon took over him.
Soon after three ghosts appear before them.
"Heh heh heh..."
"It's been so long since we've had any visitors."
"I've been craving so long for some friends!"
"Ahaha!"
The Hashira stared a bit shock. Sure, she has seen demons before. Hell, she even has a talking crow for crying out loud, but she's never seen ghosts before.
"It's....g-ghosts!!" Grim exclaimed.
"Everyone who used to live here fear us and they all ran away." The small ghost spoke.
"We all just want new ghost friends to play with." The chubbier ghost added.
"(Y/N), please tell me ghosts can get slain with your weird water magic!" Grim cried out as he held a grip onto the female's haori.
"Grim..." (Y/N) started as she sheathed her sword back into its holster. "They're ghosts, they've already left the world of the living...." She explained as she stared down at her companion while the skinny ghost laughed at Grim's reaction.
"He's Grim, I am Tomioka (Y/N), and this is my crow, Kanzaburou." The slayer introduced now seeing as the ghost weren't really a big threat towards any of them.
"Well hello, indeed it's a pleasure to have new acquaintances around here. Perhaps this time you'll stay longer than other before you." The skinny ghost said.
The Water Hashira gave the ghost a nod. "We plan on it thank you." She replied as her crow agreed with her.
"Have a good night and we'll see you both tomorrow new friends." The three ghosts spoke before soon disappearing to who knows where.
"Yes..goodnight."
"Hey hey, what was that? Why were you so calm around them? What if they attacked us?!" Grim asked with his grip still held onto the girl's haori.
"Grim...I'm from a place where demons roam and I have a talking crow as a companion. A few ghosts don't really seem so bothersome in comparison." (Y/N) said calmly. "Now come on we'll head to the room I have fixed up and go to sleep. I'm sure tomorrow is gonna be a long day."
"Yea..sure"
"New friends huh? Even if they're ghosts I wouldn't really mind it much..."
