Thank you for the ideas I received, cause I am a very indecisive person. But I did manage to think of something for Y/N, combining some ideas together. I hope it words out, enjoy the chapter!

"You sure it was this way?"

"That's what the crow said. Kids have been disappearing for three days now."

Three members of the demon slayer corps walked along the dark path, and the sudden sound of a high pitched scream made them immediately grab at their swords.

"This way let's go!"

The three slayers ran through the dark town, trying to listen for anymore sounds of distress, their panic settling more and more when they realized that there were no more screams.

"Where are you?!" One of the slayers called out, looking around quickly.

"Please help!!" The voice of a little girl cried in terror.
The slayers all collectively looked up to the top of a house, where a little girl was being held captive by a disgusting demon. She had tears streaming down her face as the demons hand was enclosed around her mouth to hush her screams.

"Stay back, or I'll snap her neck right now" the demon said, smiling, fangs bared as he stared down at the slayers.

"Let the girl go!"

"I can hear your rapid heartbeats from here. You seem scared of me, you should be" the demon said, he lifted his other hand to seal the girls fate then and there. But the arm that was holding the girl was suddenly sliced off, blood spraying everywhere and the girl was not in sight any longer.

The demon shrieked in pain, and the slayers quickly looked to the neighboring rooftop.
Y/N had the young girl in his arms, carefully setting her down as he kneeled in front of her now.

"You bastard!" The demon yelled, "give her back!" His arm grew back as he shot towards the pair.

"Keep your eyes closed" Y/N said, his voice quiet as he looked into the girls eyes.
She stared up at him, before quickly scrunching her eyes tightly, her hands going over them as well.

Y/N stood up, his hand grabbing the hilt of his nichirin blade before looking over his shoulder to see the demon quickly approaching.
"Cursed breathing, first form: Shadowed Sword"

Y/N vanished from sight like the remains of a shadow, the darkness surrounding the demons senses as he suddenly couldn't see anything anymore. The demon didn't register that his head suddenly fell to the side and thumped to the ground. Its body fell soon after, the demons head looking to Y/N once the shadows cleared.

"What?" The demon questioned, before turning to ash.

Y/N had his blade back in its sheath, he turned back to the girl and approached her.
"You're safe now" Y/N said calmly, the little girl removing her hands from her eyes and looking up towards the fourteen year old.
Tears weld up and she quickly threw her arms around his legs, her face pressing into his demon slayer uniform as she cried in relief.
