============================

I leaned my head against a nearby tree and sighed regretfully. My mind was clouded by too many emotions to count and my thoughts were everywhere. I grabbed my head with my hand as my forehead was against the dark tree trunk as I closed my eyes and took a deep breath. I gritted my teeth and felt myself begin to lightly tremble.

A sudden presence caught my attention and I reluctantly opened my eyes while I still faced the tree. I furrowed my brows and pursed my lips. "What." I bitterly uttered to the man behind me.

I heard him huff. "I went to see Oyakata-Sama but found your ugly face instead." He spoke sassily.

I sarcastically chuckled. "Ha ha. Very funny." I spoke with a scoff.

He crossed his arms over his chest. "Why the hell are you leaning on a tree-like it's the end of the world?" He questioned with what I assumed to be a raised brow.

I closed my eyes once more. "You'll get mad." I grumbled.

The man behind me huffed. "Why the hell would I do that?" He inquired.

I lightly scoffed. "Because I just found out what my last name is, and I don't think you'll like it." I paused, the memories of the dream came flooding back, making me feel dread and causing my breath to hitch. 'This isn't good.' I thought as I put a shaky hand over my fast-beating heart.

Sanemi crossed his arms over his chest and leaned his weight on one leg. "So you actually found out..?" I nodded. "How did you figure it out?" He inquired, his gaze never once left my form.

I purse my lips. "Oyakata-Sama told me." I spoke quietly, my head still leaned on the tree trunk.

He approached me and stopped when he was right next to me. "So, are you going to tell me what it is?" He spoke boredly, though his voice did hold some interest.

I paused. My thoughts were anxious and my mind raced as I took a deep breath before I picked up my head from the tree and looked him in the eye. My gaze was hard, yet shattered as my deep eyes bored into his soul. "My name...is Kibutsuji...(Y/N)." I spoke hesitantly, anxious for his answer.

He froze, his eyes wide and his hand immediately reached for his blade, making my eyes widen. "You're related to that monster...!?" He gripped his blade tightly. I raised my hands to show I mean harm as I slowly stepped away from him.

My eyes were desperate and cautious. "hey..." I spoke quickly as I continued to step back from my best friend in fear. "Don't do anything you'll regret." I swallowed thickly as he approached my form like a hunter would with its prey.

My back hit a tree and he continued to trek towards me, my arms still held out where he could see them. My brows were knitted together as I took a deep breath. "Prove to me you're not a demon!" He screamed, making me tense. "Prove it to me, or I'll kill you!" The tip of his blade met my neck as he screamed, a painful expression was on his face as he stared into my desperate eyes. "Do it!" My lips pursed and I exhaled shakily.
