"The reason I didn't want you to go join the final selection, was because I didn't want to see children die of this anymore. But I didn't count on you being able to slice that rock." Urokodaki patted Nezukos head,
"You did well. Nezuko, you are... An impressive kid..." Nezuko started to tear up, Urokodaki hugged Nezuko and she returned the hug,
"You must come back... alive from the final selection. This old man and your brother will wait for you right here.".

"Urokodaki-San I'm leaving! Please take care of Makomo and Sabito too!" Nezuko turned and waved at Urokodaki, who waved back, "Nezuko... how did you know about the names of those two dead children.".

Nezuko had arrived at Mount Fujikasane, where the final selection was being held. And reached a point of the mountain surrounded by trees with pretty purple flowers hanging from them,
'Wow... wisteria, its so pretty!' Nezuko reached out to touch the purple flowers. She continued to walk up the path and reached the top of the mountain where there was a clearing with a bunch of people standing around in.

There was two people standing in the middle dressed in purple kimonos, one had white hair and the other had black. There was also a few other people who stood out the most: a boy with blonde hair and orange tips who looked the most scared out of everyone, there was another guy standing near the blonde who had a big scar starting from one side of his face and going across his nose he looked quite annoyed.
There was a girl with a side ponytail and butterfly hair clip who looked quite calm. And lastly a person with (h/l) (h/c) just admiring the wisteria.

'That's a lot of people...' Nezuko looked at all the other participants. The black haired twin started to speak, grabbing everyones attention,
"Greetings everyone, thank you all for joining the final selection tonight. There are a lot of demons held on this mountain brought by swordsmen. They are unable to leave." the white haired twin continued,
"Because from the mountain foot to half way up, there are a lot of demon repelling wisteria that bloom all year round."
"However from here on out, there are no more wisteria, only demons. If you can survive here for 7 days, then you pass the final selection. Now let the final selection begin." Everyone entered the part of the mountain where the final selection would be taking place.

Nezuko stared at two demons who where in front of her arguing,
"Hey hey, you go over there, I'm gonna eat this one!"
"Hell no, get out of here!"
'There's suddenly two of them...! I'll get eaten' Nezuko slightly panicked. The demon with longer hair lifted up his arm and the skin under neath his elbow turned into a makeshift blade,
"That's my prey!"
"Shut it!".
"We'll just decide by whoever gets to her first!" They both charged at Nezuko. Nezuko grabbed the handle of her katana and got into a stance ready to attack,
"I havent tasted human flesh in such a long time!" One of the demons drooled. Nezuko breathed in,
'Water breathing, fourth form striking tide'  She then decapitated both of the demons with that one attack.

Nezuko stared in shock at the now decaying demons,
'I sliced them... I won against the demons... I really have gotten stronger... my training wasn't wasted' Nezuko looked at what was left of the demons,
'They've completely disintegrated not even leaving bones behind'. Nezuko put her hands together and closed her eyes,
'May you rest in peace'.

"UWAAAAAAH!" Nezuko opened her eyes and turned her attention to the direction of the scream she saw a boy running away from something,
"Why is there such a large type of mutant here? I didn't hear about this!" Behind the boy was a large green demon with hands all around it. In one of its hands it was holding another boy by the neck who was most likely dead.

Nezuko stared at it shocked. The demon reached out a hand and grabbed the boys leg,
"YAAAHHHHHH!" The boy screamed as he was lifted off the ground by the huge demon. Nezuko grabbed the handle of her katana again,
'Don't be scared, save him hurry! I am no longer that weak person I was before. Move!'.
'Water breathing, second form water wheel' Nezuko sliced of the demons arm which was holding the boys leg, the boy fell to the floor and crawled behind Nezuko. The demon stared at Nezuko,
"Here comes another cute little fox." It glared down at Nezuko.
