Giyu woke up in the butterfly estate, On one of the medical beds resting, his injuries completely gone.
His head hurt.
He looked around, checking to see if anyone else was in the room.
When he was sure He was alone he closed his eyes and spoke.
"Shizen." Giyuu called out.
Suddenly a astral projection of Giyuu with a high but small man bun with earrings looked at the bedridden Hashira.
"Fuck you want, meat-bag?"
Giyuu just stared blankly and asked; "Why are you speaking so deeply now? If I could imagine your voice in text, it would be in bold."
Shizen shrugged, "I just felt like distinguishing myself."
"I see," Giyuu responded, looking around the room.
"Anyways," Shizen said, changing the subject. "We're in your mind-scape, makes it easier to talk to you here especially with what's going on out there."
"You changed my mind-scape to a room resembling one from The Butterfly Mansion?" The Water Pillar asked.
"No, I found it like this."
"Oh-ok, were you able to kill Upper-Moon 2?" Giyuu inquired.
"Can't say, for now at least." Shizen replied back.
"Why not?" Tomioka asked.
"Why should I?"
"Touché..." Giyuu responded, before backtracking a bit, "Wait, what is going on out there?"
"The dwarf is tying you down to one of the hospital beds for interrogation."
"...What?"
"I meant Shino-."
"I know who you meant, I'm asking why?"
"Listen, I'm not going to pretend to understand the mind of a deranged Poison Master who can't even reach the soy sauce out the top drawer."
"She's not deranged."
"She LITERALLY BOUGHT her younger sister and groomed her to be a child soldier, and began to eat wisteria poison like it was a goddamn xylazine addiction, and that isn't even the tip of the iceberg."
"She had her reasons." Giyuu responded, deciding after a minute of thinking, and ignored the latter part of Shizen's statement, and instead focused on the former part instead.
Shizen rolled his eyes at Giyuu's poor attempt at a defense, "Name them."
"Pity."
"Ya-no, REAL original, Do you want one gold star, or two for originality?"
Giyuu stared at the astral projection of himself, "you know, you're being difficult."
"So are you, Mizen." Shizen responded
"I'm not Tamayo's husband."
"Your stoic and emotionless disposition isn't helping your case, Jonathan Joestar." Shizen said, as he waited for a bit. He waited for a little more than a bit actually, in some vain attempt to solicit a response from the passive suicide idolizing pillar. When he realized what a futile attempt this was he continued.
"I'm head out now, I have a fight to narrate, have fun trying to convince Elizabeth Liones out of molesting you."
"She's not going to 'molest me'."
"I won't put it past her, just ask Tanjiro."
_________________________________________
"W-what?" The uppermoon stuttered out, completely confused at the words the pillar spoke towards him.
"You heard me." Shizen nonchalantly responded back.
"What are you trying to imply here?" Douma asked a trace of annoyance to his tone.
Shizen blinked before deadpanning. "Are upper moons always this stupid or is this just a special occasion?"
"What?" Douma asked coldly.
"Oh Kami, it's like he has a mechanical mind. Too bad you forgot to wind it up tonight." Shizen explained to himself loud enough to allow Douma to hear.
Suddenly a Shizen casually blocked an attack from his rear by douma.
"Don't treat me like some mindless foul." Douma remarked as politely as possible.
"The only reason you can even feel any kind of emotion is by that cheap blonde hair dye you use every night." Shizen responded, dodging another attack from the ice manipulating demon.
Warukage noticed that the last attack was actually slightly sloppier than the previous one, if only by a little.
"I could definitely work with this." Warukage thought to himself as he slammed himself onto the Upper-Moon, allowing his body weight to slam the said demon into a tree, breaking the bark and making douma stumble.
Douma attempted to close the distance and attack the New demon with a flurry of comb attacks, but couldn't as most of the attacks were either dodged, blocked, or swept aside with little difficulty.
"Your attacks are about as weak as Kanao's insults." Shizen commented before dodging an incoming Upper cut from douma with his sharp fan with the intention of slicing a good portion of Tomioka's face.
and Shizen countered with a left hook, knocking Douma's jaw clean off, blood spraying out and causing him to get on to his kneel and stubble a bit.
Warukage threw a right hook but was dodged by Douma and created an ice spear and drove it into Shizen's heart, causing him to leak blood from his mouth.
"Now that I get a closer look, your eyes look about as lifeless as a corpse, despite having the kanji for God in your pupils. It's like you have no soul at all!~" Douma stated, assuming that this guy was to be a demon slayer but is as soulless as a demon.
"Ṯ̡̳͇͚̖͉̻͋ͅh̵͎͔̟̫̤̝ͫͩa̛̗̙ͥt̺̣̤̞͓̝͐ͮ͛́ ̨̞͇̖̰ͮͮͮ̌ͅĮ͖̮͉̻͔͇̎͋͆s͐̾҉͚̺̻͖̟̙̯̺ ̌҉̥̤̺̩̩W̽ͣ͑ͯ҉̤͚͍͕̺ͅh̼̞͒͘ŷ̰̩̮͛͜ ̸̖̻̻͇̭̇̎̎̋I̺̲̟͔̭̹͖ͩ͊͊́ ͈̬̭͙̉͝H̷̘̮̗̻̺̳̒ͯa͖̺͖̮̮ͫ̈̇̚͢v̥͇̒͘e̛͉̮̝͎̩̖̅̎͛̏ ̛͔͇̈́̒ͭŅ̣͕̭̖̳ͣ̍̀̎o͋͏̖̫̭̯̤̯ ̬̗̠̬̖̣͈̺͛͋͊̒́F̧̙͙͕̱͎͒ͪͧe͆ͬ̍ͪ҉̝̱͚̦a̶̲͍̗̳̝̜̰ͣ́ŕ̼̩͖͘."
"What!?" Douma thought as the ice spear was pulled deeper into this opponent by Shizen, he even had a face of pure enjoyment plastered onto his face in doing so.
"My Turn."
Douma didn't have time to react as Shizen slashed the ice spear in two, using one of the ends his Hori to one of the trees nearby and Uppercut Douma hard enough to send a shockwave across the clearing, sending The Demon Flying into the air with enough force to create a devastating shockwave.
Suddenly, in the blink of an eye Shizen had somehow caught up to Douma in mid-air, grabbing his head as he held his sword up to Douma's neck.
"Sorry for the rough treatment but I couldn't allow Sabito's boyfriend's comrades to interfere with my playdate now can't I?" Shizen was amused as Douma attempted to damage him with any attack he could, only for Warukage to chuckle mockingly at his attempt.
With both of them flying fast enough to catch up to lightning, it was inevitable for them to eventually hit something, that something was a tall cliff.
Shizen positioned himself in a way for Douma to take the full force of slamming right through a cliff side, as they did when another cliffside somehow appeared behind the one they slammed through.
Reacting fast, Douma steered both their bodies upside down, making Shizen's body absorb most of the impact. But as a result it sent both of them flying straight back down to earth.
But neither of them cared as Douma continued to attack Warukage with little to no progress made in making the self proclaimed 'God.'
Finally, they hit the ground with a loud *BOOM*
Sending them tumbling and rolling away from each other, giving both of them time to breathe.
Shizen stumbled a bit but quickly composed himself, as he snapped his finger, which caused his-or in this case Tomioka's sword to gain a Ocean blue colored Aura and fly straight to it's wielder's hand, as if it has a mind of its own, similarly to Mjolnir.
"For someone who walks around with a giant stain of period blood on his head you sure do pack a punch." Warukage praised Douma ,in his own way of course, before getting ready to go on the offense.
"NOW SHOW ME THIS BUTTERFLY-KILLER I'VE HEARD SO MUCH ABOUT!!"
Blood Demon Art: Crystalline divine child
Suddenly seven small ice clones of Douma appeared and surrounded Shizen, all the while attempting to intimidate the 'pillar.'
"This technique again?" Shizen said, before an evil grin appeared On his face, one which definitely didn't fit the always emotionless face of The real Water Pillar. "Call me William Afton cuz this isn't the first time I killed children, and I'll make sure this won't be my last."
"How many Children have you killed?" Douma asked, genuine curiosity apparent in his voice.
"10 total."
"Why?"
"BECAUSE JACK-"
"I am not jack-"
"KIDS ARE CRUEL, AND I LOVE MINERS!"
"Oh." Douma intelligently stated.
And For obvious legal reasons that was a Max0r Reference. Check his YouTube channel out, it's pretty funny.
Anyways, With that they all charged towards the possessed Pillar, intending to finish the battle here and now.
Blood Demon Art: Barren Hanging Garden
One of the Mini clones began the assault with an attack only for Shizen to dodge and spink kick the clone, but was blocked by said clone, he attempted a few more licks but we're all blocked.
finally, he had enough and just knee'd the clone fast enough to shatter it completely
Blood Demon Art: Frozen lotus
A circle of Ice flowers sped towards the 'Pillar' ready to cut him up into little pieces.
But it was for not, as a simple swipe of his hand Shizen shattered the attack with the sheer amount of force and air pressure his attack created.
"Such strength, not even Akaza-Dono could compare to such an enormous display of power." Douma thought to himself, but quickly shook his head, getting rid of his thoughts as he continued the fight.
Quickly gut-checking Upper 2-making him cough up blood, Shizen quickly blocked an incoming attack by another clone.
He made quick work of the clone, as he threw a comb of punches towards its head and upper body, making it shatter.
"Two down, five to go."
Another clone tried blindsiding the 'Pillar' but a quick uppercut to the gut and it shattered just let the rest.
Two clones tried to tag team Shizen but they were light work at this point.
Jumping towards Shizen, the clone tried kicking and sending ice attacks towards his opponent but all efforts were either dodged, blocked, or out right tanked
The other came from the other side but their attacks were easily halted by Shizen as he caught the swipe to his neck, and simply threw both clones into each other, shattering them both.
Despite the clones having perfect synergy with each other Shizen simply outclassed them in every other way possible.
Douma once more tried sneak attacking Shizen but was swiftly taken care of once again with a kick to the head.
Suddenly another clone appeared and Shizen tried attacking it but was dodged.
Seeing this Shizen side-kicked Douma, sending him flying while simultaneously punching the clone's jaw off, shattering the clone.
One of the last two clones flew straight down towards Shizen, which he moved out the way,
Landing, the clone steered his body so as to dodge the sweeping kick by Warukage.
Once again landing behind Shizen the clone was about to attack but was blindsided by a Axe kick to the back sending the shatter clone's bits flying.
Blood Demon Art: Lotus Vines
Using his Demon art, Douma wrapped Vines made out of ice around Shizen's arm in an attempt to bind him, but insead Shizen saw this opportunity, and grabbed the vines, pulling Douma towards him and headbutting Him, making Douma stumble.
Using this opportunity Shizen swung his arm, which was still covered in ice vines, around sending douma flying into one of his clones, shattering it, and landed on one of the tree trunks with a loud crunch.
Whether or not the crunch sound came from Douma's back or the tree trunk itself, Shizen didn't really know, he didn't really care either, not that it mattered anyway.
"Alright Itsuki Hashima, Warm ups over-it's about time you take this seriously." Shizen Said, cracking his neck in anticipation.
Healing, Douma got up with a smile, wiping blood off his lower lip with his tongue. "It would be a nice change of pace.~"
"It's showtime, Shizen."
"You mean, 'dinner time', Meat-bag." And with that they both charged at each other, aiming to kill each other.
Although Shizen wanted to Humor The Dumb Blonde, he decided to allow The Womanizer to land the first few blows.
Douma charged towards Shizen preparing his attack, as Shizen Just stood there in a fighting stance, grinning like a mad-man.
Blood Demon Art: Barren Hanging Garden
Charging in Douma Landed A series of 8 successive fan attacks, generating ice shards that began to slice into Shizen's flesh leaving tears and ice shards in his skin as he continued to tank the attacks.
Before Douma could land the last 2 attacks Shizen was able to grab Doumas wrist before he could land his attacks.
"My my, You seem to be a completely different beast than before.~" Douma praised Him struggling to escape his grasp, as Shizen's Body began to heal all the wounds on his body.
"Tell me, Are you some kind of rogue Demon Muzan-sama forgot to dispose of, hm?" Douma teased Shizen, as he Pushed Douma back making the blondie tumble to gain distance.
The Holder of Upper-Moon 2 immediately got back up and reacted fast enough to block an attack, with one of his hands.
Upper 2's eyes widened slightly when he saw his opponent's weapon.
It seemed to be a retractable 25 inch long Nirichin topped sword that curved outward and back to the tip, an Orange- Almost Yellow like glow that surrounded the inner blade, it was definitely wider than a regular Nirichin Blade for sure.
Blood Demon Art: Frozen Lotus
Douma tried to swing his fan but was blocked as Shizen morphed his hand and unsheathed Another one of his Solar-Blades.
"Oh... I am so much more than your cowardes Master; Muzan Kibutsuji could ever hope to be..."
Kicking Douma in the gut and slashing his abdomen with his Solar-Blades, he sent Douma flying as he crashed into a boulder.
Coughing up blood, Douma looked down at his abdomen and realized it wasn't even healing at all.
He had no time to dwell on it as he dodged Shizen's sword which was thrown, and meant to penetrate through Douma's Skull.
"He can detach his swords from his arms and throw them at his chosen targets." Douma deduced, as he tried to swing at Shizen, but was back handed by Shizen as he reattached his blade and retracted them back into hand form, as he tried to backhand Douma but he ducked his punch, causing Shizen to unintentionally destroy the boulder.
Blood Demon Art: Lotus Vines
Summoning Ice Vines, Douma used them to penetrate through Shizen's abdomen and out his spine, sending flying off a cliff. Using quick thinking, Shizen grabbed onto the vines, pulling them further into his abdomen and spun both of them around as they fell of the cliff, as the vines penetrated further, Shizen closed the distance between him and Douma, allowing him to grab his head and buried it into the ground as they landed, cracking both the ground and the Douma's skull, which was quickly healed.
Shizen stood up as he let Douma lay there in a pool of his own blood.
Douma also noticed this, and stood up on his knees slowly, looking down as he realized...
His abdomen hadn't Healed... At All...
His guts and intestines spilling out onto the floor as Douma began to cough up blood, as a triple down his chin and onto his chest.
"You feel it don't You?~" Shizen spoke in a sickly sweet way breaking the silence as he stood next to the kneeling down, looking down at him,both literally and metaphorically.
Douma slowly looked up at his opponent, an expression resembling both a hint of confusion and pain, plastered onto his face.
"You feel it don't You, the constant aching in your abdomen... It's painful, isn't it? Its gnawing sensation, overriding your senses, the pain... overwhelming you.~" Shizen Mocked, as he chuckled down at Douma who was looking at his wounds like it was something new to the Ice user.
Blood Demon Art: Rime - Water Lily Bodhisattva
In desperation Douma quickly created an enormous Bodhisattva statue surrounded by lotuses made of ice, ready to end the fight now.
Shizen could tell... it was a technique of desperation, A Last Ditch Effort.
And they both knew it.
Raising Bodhisattva's arm Douma slammed it down onto where Shizen stood, creating a crater in the process.
It would've done some damage to Shizen if Douma was fast enough.
As if appearing out of nowhere Shizen was about to strike Douma's neck but was stopped as Bodhisattva's ice breath freezed most of Shizens arms and back.
Blood Demon Art: Frozen Lotus
Using this opportunity Douma delivered a forward fan slash that creates razor-sharp ice shards along with several ice lotuses, piercing and freezing the rest of Shizen's body as the force of the attack sent him flying back down to the ground.
Crashing onto the ground, Shizen began breaking free of the ice, the ice shattering with each attempt, but it was enough time for Douma to land one more blow, as he slammed Bodhisattva's arm onto Shizen's partially frozen body, creating another massive crater onto the earth.
"Phew..." Douma sighed in relief. "Man... and I thought I was about to be a goner there for a second, hehe~" Douam giggled. "I should probably head back now..." he thought to himself, but before noticed movement under The Ice Bodhisattva's hand.
"Oh~ I wouldn't call you a goner, just a failed abortion miserably trying to play god." Shizen Remarked as he power-lifted The statue's hand with one arm, as the last bit of ice melted off Shizen's body.
Douma was too stunned to speak, seeing a mere hashira Power-lift at least 1254 lbs of pure ice with ONE arm like it was part of their daily Training regiment.
"How did you-"
"I do a lot of sit-ups, push-ups and drink plenty of juice."
"What kind of juice do you drink?" Douma asked genuinely curious, somehow breaking character which made no fucking sense.
Shizen shrugged, and Douma decided to take that as his answer.
Before He could comment at Shizen's lack of a response Shizen buried his fingers into the Ice Bodhisattva's hand, the ice cracking around his fingers and Shizen pulled his hand away, breaking The Bodhisattva's hand clean off, and using the hand to completely destroy the Bodhisattva entirely, sending a shockwave due to the force Shizen generated, shards of ice raining down, alongside Douma.
The ice user didn't even have enough time to get up as Shizen picked him up and threw him away like a ragdoll, but douma was able to land on his feet as he blocked an incoming Solar-blade hurling towards him.
"And to think that the Kocho blood-line died out to the likes of a wanna be god like yourself." Shizen mocked as Douma threw the Solar-blade onto the ground as he tried to attack Warukage from a distance, only to have the Solar-Blade pierce through his chest as Shizen summoned it back onto his arm, replacing his hand.
"Dumbass!" Shizen Remarked as Douma for the second time in this fight got on his knees in the new sensation of pain coursing through his body.
Douma had enough strength to block another one Shizen's Solar-blades he unsheathed
From his hand with his fans. Shizen stood over Douma's kneeling form as he 'tried' to push his blade into Douma's neck but was stopped by the said demon's efforts.
"You know i expected more from someone who holds the title of upper moon two." Shizen Mocked.
"Typical of your kind... all cock, but no cum!" Shizen roared as he unsheathed His other Solar-Blade, as he sliced Douma's arms off and finally decapitated the demon.
As Douma's head fell off his shoulders he couldn't help but think about his death.
"I'm finished..." Douma thought to himself. "I'm going to die, yet I don't feel anything, no fear, or hate, just emptiness."
"Guess all I can do now is just accept death and move on, I guess..."
Were his last thoughts as his vision blurred, before fading into darkness.
"Oh, No... I say when we're done."
The voice doomed through Douma's subconscious.
Suddenly Douma roared in pain as lighting pierced through his skull, causing him unbearable pain. His vision finally coming back, his head convulsing as he watched as Parts of his body began to real back, the lighting continuing to strike down on Douma, Shizen being the one behind this.
As the lighting faded, douma stumbled, his body attempting to stand up, as he grunted in pain.
"I'm not letting you go till I see fear creep into your eyes!~"
Douma finally stood straight back up, his vision finally coming back to him.
Only to see Shizen smirking devilishly at Him.
Shizen had revived Douma from the brink of death to run the fade with him once more.
