[DISCONTINUED] The Art of Destruction || A Kimetsu No Yaiba x (F)Reader Story

Chapter 28

Previously!

You rolled your eyes at the males sudden gratefulness. Not wanting to burst his bubble of joy and relief, you rolled with the praise that he was giving to you while you merely shrugged with Shoichi. Patting the males head, "You don't owe me anything Zenitsu, now come on, we still have Tanjiro, Teruko, and Shoichi's older brother to find." He nodded as he wiped his beads of tears away from his eyes and stood up with you. With an ecstatic smile on your face, you exclaimed,

"All right, let's get going you two!" 

On to Chapter 28!

Breathlessly you, Zenitsu, and Shoichi ran. The three of you were all running in the same direction in the dizzying house; it honestly felt like you were all just running in circles. "Um Zenitsu, (Y/N)san, is it just me or are we just going around and around in circles?" Shoichi asked. You groaned while Zenitsu agreed loudly. "It does feel like we're just running aimlessly, doesn't it?" You said with heavy breathes. Zenitsu and Shoichi nodded while you stared down the endless hallway. Pointing to a closed room, "All right, could either of you check to see if this room is safe?" Both you and young male gave Zenitsu faces that could only resemble an ogre. "What the heck?! All right, all right, just stop giving that look you two!" He cried out with that gaping mouth of his. 

Zenitsu cracked open the sliding door and nothing more. He peered into it as his body trembled, expecting the worse. You chuckled softly at how weird he looked; he reminded you of a weird chicken that would roam the streets in your village. Seeing that there was no one in the room, Zenitsu led the way. The three of you entered the room and continued to jog, hoping to find the three others that were still missing. But upon reaching the middle of the room, the sound of a tsuzumi was struck. 

Your nerves were suddenly flaming with worry as you put yourself on guard; but your cautious state didn't help in this scenario. Suddenly, the room flipped upside down, and the three of you were falling through multiple rooms. But after falling through four or five rooms, while screaming out of fear, the door to the outside was finally revealed. Now out in the open, you could see that you three were all falling from the the second story. Already knowing that Zenitsu was protecting Shoichi, you focused on landing on the ground carefully. 

You landed with a soft thud on the ground. Standing up, you looked towards Zenitsu and the younger boy and immediately went over to them, worried about their well-being. Shoichi was quick to escape Zenitsu's hold and stand up on his own, so now your worries were mainly lying on your friend. Going up to him, you could see a small pool of blood surrounding his head, which made you begin to freak out. "Oh geez, oh geez," you said repeatedly as you crouched down to place Zenitsu's head on your lap. Once on your lap, you slapped both of his cheeks lightly in order to wake him, "Oi, Zenitsu! Wake up!" You whisper-yelled as Shoichi was also shaking the yellow male to try and wake him from his unconscious state. 

After a few very brief seconds, he slowly began waking up. You smiled happily, excited to see him become conscious. "Oh? An angel?" He suddenly said, catching you completely off-guard. Your smile faltered and you now only looked at him with confusion. "Zenitsu, you're not dead," you said with slight worry. "Are you sure?" He asked, now raising the back of his hand to graze your cheek. You blushed as you bit the inside of your cheeks as the back of hand rubbed your cheek softly. 'What's wrong with him all of a sudden? He knows that he's not dead, right?' "Zenitsu, I'm pretty sure that you're not dead." Putting extra emphasis on the word "not". The yellow male never took in your words but only stared at your eyes like a love-struck child. You looked at him with an amused smirk and a cocked eyebrow and flicked his forehead, causing him to jerk himself up and out of your lap. 

Rubbing the now sore spot while whining loudly, you laughed. But he quickly ceased his cries when he heard Shoichi calling his name. "Are you alright?" The male asked with worrisome eyes, "When the room spun, we got thrown outside. We fell from the second-story window." Zenitsu merely looked at him with an opened mouth before smiling and rubbing the back of his head. "Did we now?" Completely unfazed at how you all fell from the second-story of the home. 'Has he really not realized that the back of his head is bleeding?' You commented internally as you saw his hand slowly become covered in blood. 

Never listening to their conversation and only focusing on their actions, you watched as Zenitsu looked at his now bloodied hand with shock etched into his eyes. "Oh boy..." You muttered under your breath as Zenitsu started to scream with horror and then passionately think that he was going to die. You shook your head at his strangeness. 

The sound of an overly excited individual and rapid footsteps echoed from the entrance of the building. You narrowed your eyes and expected the worst; your hand quickly gripping the hilt of your sword. With brute force, the masked man from earlier bashed his head into both of the sliding doors of the home, knocking them out of their place and onto the ground. 'What on earth?! Does he not know how to open doors?!' You mentally screamed as Zenitsu himself screamed that it was the monster boar as the individual himself laughed chaotically.  

Tuning out Zenitsu, you focused on the boar headed male, wondering what he was trying to find. The masked person laughed devilishly once he laid his eyes on the box where Nezuko was sleeping in. Looking at both him and the box repeatedly, it clicked for you, 'Oh no! He's gonna go after the box!' And that he did. 

Before you could run after the boar headed figure, Zenitsu raced to the box in order to protect it. You could feel your nerves jump when the masked males swords came too close to Zenitsu's guarding figure, but relaxed when the two began to communicate. Well, sorta. 

The male with the boar-hide was waving his swords around in an angered manner while your yellow companion yelled at him defensively. Becoming frustrated with not being able to hear what they were talking about, you began walking closer to where the two were talking. But as you neared, a feeling of uncertainty and a risk of safety started to swell within your stomach; your instincts were picking up something before you yourself could. Walking now a bit faster, you saw the boar-headed wearing stranger kick Zenitsu in the face with his foot suddenly and continue to kick him relentlessly. Your eyes widened at the sight and you sprinted towards Zenitsu in order to protect him from the strangers blows. 

The unknown male kicked Zenitsu to the side and faced the box that held Nezuko. Before making another move, you kicked the side of his body with rage, sending him flying in the direction of your kick. Rushing over to Zenitsu's side and helping him up to a sitting position, you locked your cold eyed on the boar. You watched as he got back up and growl lowly. Your teeth stayed clench as your blood curdled; the need to protect Zenitsu and beat the shit out of a stranger was now running through your mind. Unsheathing your sword and maintaining your cold stare on the strange individual, you spoke, 

"You better think about your next move carefully, shit-stain."
