[Y/N] P.O.V

I had a mission again and this time it was farther so then I wasted no time and started walking but then before I could even take another step someone held my hand making me turn around to face them.

Like always it was Tanjiro and I just stared at him waiting to listen to what he had to say.Instead of speaking he had a frowny face and I sensed his emotion which was worried and I sighed at this before giving him a head pat.

"Tanjiro,I can assure you that I'll be fine"

"I know but..what if something happen?"

"...Tanjiro,try not to worry too much"

"Bu-" before he could even speak I just gave him a head pat again and left leaving him there all worried and upset that I had to leave.The feeling I was getting had reminded me back then whenever Hiro and Hinata would always stay home and see me walk away from our homes to go somewhere.

I quickly snapped out of my thoughts and continued walking towards my mission I didn't expect this mission too be that far but if it is my duty so then be it.

[Flashback-started]

"[Y/N].." Kanao had called out to me making me turn my head to look at her "..yes?" I replied waiting for her to say something.

"I was wondering..how come you been more quiet lately..?" 

"....Kanao"

"I'm sorry if I made you upset!" She apologized and bowed down then tried walking away until I hugged her from behind and whispered in her ear.

"There's no need to apologize.." then I let her go and walked away.

"Moshi Moshi [Y/N],are you leaving so soon already?"Instead of speaking I just nodded and watched her walk up to me while smiling still"Ara,you're still wearing the butterfly hairpin I see!"then your [E/C] eyes were staring down her deep purple eyes.

"Well I should probably get going now" and with that I left leaving her there.

[Flashback-ended]

Memories were the only thing that was in my mind now.I didn't care if I died,if I died then I died there's no big deal about it after all I have killed people which is wrong.Even though I stopped killing humans but that doesn't mean I won't continue though.

I just kept walking not turning back until I heard my name being called out from behind,but a very familiar voice had spoke.I turned around and saw him my little brother Hinata right before my eyes.

My eyes widened at this tears were already in the corner of my eye about to fall but I held it in."Oneesan!" he called out to me and ran up to me and then just hugged me "Hinata.." I spoke.

"Oneesan! I really missed you!" he told me while looking up at me smiling then the next thing I knew I was crying already.

"Oneesan..your crying..." he spoke again but wiped the tears off my face and I just hugged him tight not letting him go.

"Hinata! I'm sorry! I'm so so sorry!!" I kept apologizing and he gave me a head pat while smiling,"Oneesan! it's ok! Mama,Papa and Hiro are all waiting for you too! We'll all be waiting for you!" when he said that I hugged him tighter not letting go at all "Hinata..please don't leave me again.."

"Oneesan! just know that we all love you!!" then the next thing I knew he disappeared into the thin air.I just smiled and looked up at the dark starry sky while tears came rolling down my face 'Hinata,Hiro I'll be coming soon...so please hold on a bit longer' I thought to myself.

Time went by pretty fast and it's been already 4 days so far but luckily I was able to head home now.I decided to visit Tanjiro since he probably would be worried at this point so I headed towards the butterfly estate and spotted him right by the entrance looking tired,sleepy,and exhausted.

As he looked up he saw me and smiled but then his eyes closed shut and his body was falling I quickly appeared in front of him and caught him.He then immediately opened his eyes and saw me right in front him holding his body then tears immediately came down his face and he hugged me.

"[Y/N]!!" He called out my name and I sensed his sadness 'He probably has been worried about me these past few days..' I thought while hugging him back and gave him a head pat also.

As we both walked back to the butterfly estate I held his hand since he kept tripping cause he was tired and it was night time.I tucked him into bed and saw his sister Nezuko awake,she walked up to me and smiled with the muzzle on her mouth while I gave her a simple head pat.

It was so late that Shinobu had insisted that I stayed for the night and I just agreed to this.Ever since I been getting closer to Tanjiro and Giyu my chest has been feeling tighter than before these days.I just try not to think about it too much since I don't want to keep thinking about many things that aren't really important.

I couldn't sleep so I went outside and this time I saw my Mom.She was smiling and she walked up to me cupping me cheeks with her hand."[Y/N]..look how much you grown,my dear daughter" she spoke.

"Mom..I-" before I could even say anything else she cut me off "[Y/N] don't worry,we all forgive you and listen [Y/N].I love you and you don't have to avenge our deaths,the only thing that matters is that you're fully alive dear" she kissed my forehead and wiped the tear streaming down my face again.

"[Y/N],don't be afraid to fall in love and it's ok to open up to others just take your time"and with that she disappeared into the thin air just like how Hinata did.

'Don't be afraid to fall in love...?'

'love..?'

'Don't avenge them...?'

I just smiled and looked up again while tears were streaming down my face once again 'If that's what you want me to do then,I'll do it Mom..' 

━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━[ 1st,2nd & 3rd ] P.O.V

[Y/N] woke up early in the morning so she got ready and took a walk outside for a little while.She didn't know why she was taking a walk outside but she did it anyway.The moment she arrived by a garden one of the flowers caught her eye and it was a Marigold.

She stared at it before leaving back to the butterfly estate and the moment she arrived she saw Zenitsu clinging onto Aoi's leg while Tanjiro was trying to get him off of her and Inosuke was just eating the foods with his bare hand.

Aoi had noticed you and bowed down immediately while you just gave her a simple head pat walking away.They say that people are different from others and yes that was true but what about you? you were way different from them now weren't you.

Grabbing your haori putting it on and grabbing your blade setting it on the side of your waist like always.As you were about to leave the place you felt someone behind you so you turned around and Shinobu was there.

"Ohayo! [Y/N]-san!"

"..Ohayo..Shinobu-san"

"Ara Ara,[Y/N]-san are you leaving already?"

The [H/C] haired girl nodded as her [E/C] eyes looked down at the insect pillar and immediately sensed Shinobu's sadness of her leaving already so she came up with an idea.She grabbed Shinobu's hand and led her inside to the kitchen room,then she had a box full of mochis just for Shinobu.Then [Y/N] just smiled and bowed before leaving Shinobu there all happy and thankful for the treat.

'I'll go ahead and visit Senjuro' she thought as she walked over to their estate and knocked on the door revealing an old man who looked like Rengoku.

"Har!? who are you!?" he yelled/asked.

"...Hishiro [Y/N]..The Star Hashira"

Then he was about to actually slam the shoji door shut until you prevented that from holding it halfway from closing.

"HAR!?! WHAT DO YOU WANT WOMAN!!??" He yelled making you get an irk mark at this.

"I was wondering if Senjuro was here,sir"

Then he slid the shoji door open letting you in and then you saw Senjuro sweeping the floor "..Senjuro" you called out his name making him look at you and he immediately ran to you hugging you tight.

"[Y/N]-san!!"

"Hello..how have you been?"

"I been good!"

"That's nice,where's Rengoku?"

"He's on a mission right now"

"Ah I see,we'll then I'll be taking my leave now"

Before I could even move he held onto my hand not letting me go "[Y/N]-san..could you please stay for awhile?" he asked while his father just stared at us.

"Of course,I'll stay here until Rengoku comes home" then he smiled brightly making me smile at this also.

After 2 hours passed by the door opened revealing Rengoku and when he saw [Y/N] she was  sitting down arm wrestling his father which made Rengoku confused but he just watched.

His father who was Shinjuro was having a hard time trying to beat [Y/N] then she slammed his arm on the table and won."AAAHHH YOU CHEATED!!" Shinjuro yelled at [Y/N] while she got up and started walking towards the shoji door opening it to reveal the bright sky.

"I'll be taking my leave now and thank you for letting me visit,have a wonderful day you three" and with that she left closing the door.

As she walked she then remembered that she hasn't visited Muichiro anymore so then she quickly ran towards his place and arrived soon.Knocking on the door waiting for response and luckily it opened revealing Muichiro.

"[Y/N]?" he asked and I just nodded while looking at him "Are you going somewhere?" I asked and he nodded "I'm actually going on a mission.." he spoke and I just told him that I would come back and visit next time.

I started making my way towards Mitsuri estate since she's always happy whenever I seem to be around her.I spotted her outside under a cherry blossom tree with Obanai sitting next to her while Mitsuri smiled and was saying something to him.I walked up to her placing a hand on her shoulder which scared her and she accidentally slapped me in the face making Obanai eyes widened at this while Mitsuri freaked out of what she just did.

"AAAHHH [Y/N]-CHAN!! I'M SORRY!!!" she immediately apologized and bowed while I gave her a head pat "Don't worry..I'm not dead" I spoke.

"I know but still!"

"Mitsuri it's fine,don't worry" 

I sat down beside her while Obanai sat down in front of us and she made a flower crown for me while I made a flower crown also for both her and Obanai.While the both of them were chatting I sat there still and quiet while looking at the crown Mitsuri made for me.I always liked it flower crowns they were really pretty and gorgeous,just like how when my mother would always make me smile.

Then I got up and patted both Mitsuri and Obanai's head and thanked them before leaving.My bird Akiko had came flying towards me, "New mission with the Kamaboko squad! There has been several reportings of demons spotted near by in Kazamaura village! Find the demon and kill it!"

I nodded and waited at the entrance for the boys patiently.When they arrived Tanjiro ran up to her and smiled while she had her emotionless face on like always.They all walked towards the village and since it was a bit far she knew that they had to speed up a little but they didn't seem like the great boys to cooperate with so she stayed quiet.

While Zenitsu and Inosuke were both arguing Tanjiro had ran up to [Y/N] side walking alongside her and just looked at her while she faced front."[Y/N]?" he called out to her "Hmm?" she responded.

"I'm really glad that I get to go on a mission with you,for once!" he exclaimed while [Y/N] just stayed quiet and sighed.

"Even I am Tanjiro.." 

Then on the rest of the way towards the village they stayed silent and soon enough they arrived.[Y/N] sensed a demon coming from her left so she took out her blade and swinged it with blood splattering all over the air.The boys were amazed by this of how she knew where the demon was even though they couldn't see it.

"Tanjiro I want you and the rest of ya'll to go North I sense some weak demons there about to devour people!" She yelled making them go towards the place.

1 demon from the right and with that she grabbed her blade and breathed in"Breath of the Stars..First Form:Shooting Star" she quickly adapted to her surroundings and dodged the incoming attack and sliced off the demons head.

Then she ran over to where the boys were she noticed how beat Zenitsu was so she ran over to help him and got in front of him facing the large demon that he was battling."Breath of the Stars..Eleventh Form:Starlight Tears" strong wind had came out of nowhere and started slashing at the demon while you jumped from tree to tree and sliced the demons neck off along with it's head.

"Zenitsu! get up and help Tanjiro!" and he got up running to Tanjiro to help him fight off a demon.'1 more demon coming from the sky' you thought and disappeared making the demon confused but then he looked up and saw you diving down towards them their eyes widened and was about to attack until you killed them already.

Your mission was done you called for the boys and started heading towards the butterfly estate since Zenitsu had 2 broken ribs and Inosuke being an idiot had broken his left arm while Tanjiro abdomen had a deep cut and you,you were perfectly fine.

As you were walking around the butterfly estate you spotted a young boy who was actually pretty tall and when he spotted you he turned red and started blushing making you confused at this."H-hishiro-sama!!' he said and bowed down while you gave him a head pat "I refer people to call me by my first name,so [Y/N] is fine...what's your name?" you asked and he looked up facing your [E/C] eyes.

"M-my n-name is Genya Shinazugawa!!" he blurted out loud 'Did he say Shinazugawa?'Then you just nodded and walked away leaving him there all red and flustered.

'I'm going to be talking to Sanemi about this..'

As you made your way towards Sanemi's place you noticed that he was busy training the slayers but you still walked in."Shinazugawa-san.." you spoke getting his attention.

"Oh it's you,what do you need?" he asked while you looked at him "I never knew you had a younger brother.." then you knew he tensed up at this "Oi! I don't hav-" but before he could even speak you spoke again.

"Sanemi,you should know how much Genya cares for you,I'm positive that he loves you with his heart..just like how you feel towards him" and with that you walked forward facing his students."Is he giving you all a hard time?" you asked while some of shook their heads ann others stayed quiet.

"Hmm.." then you gave Sanemi a head pat also and smiled at him before leaving his place."I do.." he spoke when you left his place.

━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━

I was just heading towards Tomioka's place since I was bored and didn't have anything else to do.I knocked on his door and then it opened revealing Giyu,"Oh [Y/N] it's you" he spoke while I just nodded.

As I came inside his place I sat down in front of him while he poured tea into his cup and my cup.The both of us stayed quiet while drinking our tea until my vision became blurry and I looked up at him panting and getting up "Giyu..I can't-" before I could even speak  everything became black.

"[Y/N]!?" Giyu called out to her and shaking her while blood was dripping out of her mouth."[Y/N]!!" he called out again and carried her quickly towards Shinobu estate.

He knocked quickly and fast then Shinobu opened the door "Ah Tomioka-san what brings-" she didn't even finish speaking as soon as she saw you carried by him and your mouth with blood dripping out she was in panic mode.

I was in a place where darkness was and then I just stayed silent until a tear came pouring down my face 'Am I..dead....?' I thought to myself and just looked around.

'Maybe I am' I thought and saw a light,I walked towards the light and then I noticed that I was back in the reality world.

I fluttered my eyes open and saw that Shinobu was injecting a needle into my arm while Giyu sat down beside me holding my hand.Tanjiro and Kanao were looking at me worried with sadness in their eyes.

"Shinobu...?" I called out and she quickly hugged me "[Y/N]-san!!" she yelled and I just hugged her back."I'm...sorry.." I spoke.

It turns out when I was fighting the demon they had added poison in their attack and injected me with it,but luckily Shinobu was able to get them all out.I thanked her and smiled while she smiled back and Kanao ran up to me hugging me while tears were about to drop and I wiped them.

'What would have happen..if I did die?' I thought to myself.

As I was healing up Kanao stayed with me the whole day refusing to leave.I sat up straight and she fed me sushi,while I ate it she looked down in shame.

"Kanao,raise your head..your not a burden"I spoke.

She perked up her head at this and her eyes were widened,"[Y/N]..."

'Were they all this worried..?' I thought to myself.
