I am well aware the pictures I chose do not fit in any way to the chapter... I just chose random art stuff from my pinterest that's from the show that I like that I think my dear readers will like

I highly recomend you screen shot the page so you can have these for yourselves if you don't have them in your camera roll already

and as an avid wattpad reader myself I do the same thing with other peoples stories :)

Anyway... here's this chapters recap! and sorry but since this is a dialogue recap its gonna be a bit long... but I want you guys to remember what i published last sooo yeah :)

"What do you want from me?" (Y/N) asked sternly, trying to contain their trembling.

"I have been watching you since the day I turned you and you are quite impressive. I was surprised you even dared to kill your own parents. But then you stopped eating people.. Why is that?"

"It's wrong, obviously. No human's life should be taken purely for the consumption of something else."

"Harsh! Calling your own kind a thing and not a living thing!"
"I find myself disgusting, you did this to me! Now I have to live like this forever!"
"But I spared you! Unless you want to take back what I did for you.."

"No, I still value my life, but not for being immortal.."
"Well I still have something to ask from you and in return I will give you something, maybe something of mine."

(Y/N) figured that he would not leave them alone if they would not oblige so they nodded their head to hear what Muzan had to say.

"Well I am glad you will listen to me now. See I have noticed you have not even figured out your blood demon art, which is truly shameful, but I know if you learn it, it will make you stronger, possibly by 5 fold. And if I teach you yours and how to properly use it in turn you will have to become one of my disciples and lay your life on the line for me instead of those humans."

~~onto the real chapter!!~~

The offer honestly sounded decent to (Y/N). They did wonder about their blood demon art but they had no idea if they would have one since they knew a type of breathing instead. But they also worried about joining Muzans side. (Y/N) had to think about her friends out fighting against demons right now too. And what they would do if they made the right or wrong choice. But all at the same time (Y/N) had this strange feeling deep down that this might all be a lie and they might not have a choice. That worried them too. (Y/N) honestly just wanted to see their friends again or their old master for guidance to figure out what to do and how to not mess up and make the right decision. But just out of (Y/N)'s earshot they heard Muzan sigh and then start to speak again. "You know if you're going to take too long on this decision I may as well kill you." Then that muscle mass that seemed oddly familiar to (Y/N) emerged from his body and began luning at them and attacking them. (Y/N) managed to dodge it fairly well but they knew they would not be able to attack it with their breathing techniques since they had not a single sword with them. And as (Y/N)'s flexible body flew in the air Muzan added to his offer that he would get them new dual swords if they chose him. (Y/N) was totally conflicted and as they were being attacked they were unable to think. And on the complete other side of the door that (Y/N) had originally emerged from Tanjiro was flung into the air and landed right where Rui was waiting to hear back from his master. But then his sister emerged and they began to chat, as he attacked her of course. He should really control himself. But Tanjiro saw and called him out for calling himself a brother yet not having any sort of bondage to his so called sister and his so called family which was all fake and made up. That really pissed Rui off and so he decided to try and "talk it out" with Tanjiro and that was when Rui was introduced to Nezuko and reintroduced to a familiar face. Because the door from that other dimension or whatever you might call it and the door flew open and Olivia flew up with such height. Rui knew she was a precious toy to his master so he caught her from her fall in his web which created such a gory sight it was disturbing to see. The webs cut into her like cheese, not completely through, but they were inching their way through her limbs. Tanjiro was nearly caught off guard by the sight of the girl he was starting to grow nearly dead on a web and then began to engage in battle. All at the same time Inosuke was defeated and nearly killed by the now giant spider demon father. But just in time two of the nine pillars had arrived to fix the problematic situation. And Zenitsu was doing quite alright. He killed the human headed spider but with a catch. He was injected with a spider poison that nearly turned him into a spider but he too was saved as the pillars arrived. And Tanjiro and the demon he was fighting was next on their priority list as the Kakushas infiltrated the rest of the forest. The fight between Rui and Tanjiro was interfered with since the water pillar Giyuu arrived and managed to fix things up. He killed the lower moon demon but once he assured the safety of Tanjiro and Nezuko he saw that there was just one more victim. (Y/N). She was flung from their fight with Muzan into a web previously made by Rui and they were caught in said web. It was cutting her in all sorts of angles and it was killing them slowly. But Giyuu noticed the clothes looked familiar but their face was so beaten and left like that it was really hard to tell. But Giyuu had this strange sixth sense where he could easily tell humans from demons but he knew that was no human. So he left them. He wanted them to sizzle in the sun and die. But as the eldest Kakusha was walking around making sure everything was in order she spotted (Y/N) in the web. She asked around about them but none of the Kakusha even knew they were there. She approached (Y/N) and began examining them. She recognized their slightly familiar kimono from stories that were told to them from the old Kakusha. It was that (Y/N) used to be legendary even before they would slay demons as being one themselves. They were a powerful slayer, they joined at such a young age and got fairly high up the latter at just 15. Plus everyone had them rumoured as her being the next wind pillar. So once the Kakusha fully remembered them she knew that she probably should just be taken with everyone else and possibly put on trial as well as Tanjiro and Nezuko.

(Y/N)'s POV...

I woke up and I was in a dark room. I had no idea where I was but I saw a window letting in some sunlight and I could feel it warming up the room. I had no idea what was going to happen to me but I have to make sure I don't die. All of a sudden a door slid open with such speed and a Kakushi walked in. They looked down at me and I looked up at them. Then they turned their head towards the entrance to the door and called out, "Hey is this the kid they were asking for?" "Yeah! Bring them out! They're apparently on trial too!" Then I could feel myself being lifted off the floor but I pushed them off of me telling them I could walk myself. "Suit yourself, but if you aren't able to walk we won't help you. You dirt demon." I grumbled when I heard them say such a thing in front of me. They must forget that demons get heightened senses. Then I slowly followed behind these rude Kakushis and then when I saw the sun it burned my eyes and I realized my hood wasn't on so I quickly slipped it on over my head. The shade it provided for me felt amazing and I kept walking. All of a sudden I saw nine really strong aurad people in front of me and then my face turned to the house that was in front of them. I saw these two twin girls with these lifeless eyes and a blind yet very very powerful man standing there. Then the creepy twins said to me, "Bow before The Master." I did as they asked not knowing what would happen if I didn't but I knew that if I did. So I went down on my knees and went down in front of them. I could feel eyes on me and I hated it. I never liked too much attention and then the girls began speaking. "This is Jemi, (Y/N) a supposed demon slayer. Physical age 15, unknown chronological age. They were last seen on Mt. Natagumo and was found by the elder Kakushi." All of a sudden a booming voice was heard from behind me and a voice asked, "Tell us what is your real age?" I sighed and I knew that this would get me caught as being a demon but I knew I would have to stay truthful for my safety. "I am truly about 45 years old." Another booming yet angry voice was heard from behind me and that voice exclaimed, "You don't look 45! Are you admitting to being a demon?!" I took a deep breath and gave them a simple yes. Then a more quiet yet irritated voice came in demanding I die just by being a demon being here. But their master, the voice in front of me, said otherwise. "Now, Jemi-san, please explain yourself, and once you do we will deem you passable or not." I took a deep breath again and decided to tell them my whole life story. From my story of becoming a demon slayer myself at such a young age, from being turned, skipping past my parents' deaths, and then ending it right to the point when I woke up here at this estate. But I was nervous telling them I did eat my parents so I decided to set that aside if they were to ask me later. So I told them how I was attacked on a mission long ago since I used to be a demon slayer. And when they all asked curiously who I was fighting I told them. They were utterly surprised and they were amazed. That same irritated yet booming voice exclaimed, "A little girl like you put up a fight with Muzan! Impossible!" He really pissed me off. But then a sweet woman's tone was heard, it felt like it was giving me butterfly kisses if that makes sense. She politely asked what breathing style I used and I said that I was a wind breathing slayer. That same guy who really seemed to hate me was extremely surprised. But then she added, "Well then where are your swords? You have to empty sheaths..." "I was on that mountain.. And I was fighting that lower moon demon and I did not expect the power from his threads to be so strong so I was reckless and broke both my blades I have had since I became a demon slayer in th corps." The voice made a sound of understanding and then they let me continue my story. I told them how Muzan claimed to have spared me but instead he turned me into a demon and left me to die. I managed to survive sunrise by running far into a cave. But once they tried reporting my death they were unable to find my body. Then I went on to tell them about how I ran off and then began training myself to not eat people, of course again, leaving out the fact I did eat my parents since I was clouded by a first hunger. And then I told them how I got here. But then that's when a familiar voice chimed in. "Now I remember you, your kimono is the thing I remember." This sweet lovey dovey voice asked the familiar voice what he meant and he told the part of my story where I was running through a mountain and we ended up "bumping" into each other. But then after that I kept going. I told them I was killing more demons for a bit until I met Tanjiro in a big city, that I forgot the name of again, and how we fought a few demons that were sent our way. Then of course I told them about me and Tanjiro's fight, the mansion, then wrapped the story after the part where I was knocked out cold from a strong hit from yet another fight I had with Muzan in god knows where. They seemed fascinated by that but some of them gave off auras that told me otherwise.

"I see, so you have been with the corps since you were thirteen or so and then you were turned and then kept the mission going but as a demon. That is some strength you have. No one would ever dare try to kill their own kind."

"Yes, I was raised to kill and hate demons but once I was turned I was disgusted with myself but since I was still alive I decided to just keep on going and killing them."
"Well then I have one question to ask you."
"What is it?"
"How many human lives have you taken? I cannot completely believe you just lived your whole demon life without eating some form of human, especially since you have been living for so long."
"Well the thing is, I have taken human life. But it was one instance. It was a day or two after I was turned and I had this dying hunger inside me. It completely took over me and then I went all the way to my parents village and to their house. Without even knowing it."

"Woah woah woah! You flamboyantly ran to your parents house for no reason!? Unless you killed them.."

I slowly nodded my head confirming his probable guess.

"They were the only people I harmed, but to make sure I kept my respect for them very high I buried them in a peaceful spot and sent them prayers of love."

"I see, Hashiras, what do you think about this girl?"

I heard them mutter and think and I even heard one of them mutter calling me a "poor soul". I hated that that hashira, or pillar I guess, gave me pity. I never liked the idea of pity. To me, it was gross and disgusting. But they just kept on muttering to themselves which was causing my anxiety levels to go up. But then it all stopped. Then that first booming voice came back and then spoke, "I am speaking for all of the hashiras and we do not deem this Jemi, (Y/N) passable!"
