An old friend of Giyuu
Just a short drabble
“Come on Mitsuri, just hold it longer,” Obani spoke as the two were leaning against each other.
“For fuck sake! My fuckin’ back!” Sanemi complain as he had Shinobu did her best to wrap the large slash on his back in the minimal amount of bandages she had.
“It’ll be alright. We’ll get home soon.” Shinobu spoke as her eyebrows knitted together, her legs feeling weak, she almost fell by Tengen caught her.
“We can’t keep this up for the whole walk home,” Tengen suggested looking back at the semi-new kids, Tanjiro, Inosuke, and Zenitsu. “They’re exhausted, we’re exhausted. I suggest we stay somewhere flamboyant-”
Giyuu stayed quiet as he looked up, his crow coming down quickly and landing on his hand.
Giyuu looked at the bird with his bland eyes, petting the bird lightly with his bruised hand. “Please, see that Y/n can make room for us at her home,” Giyuu asked as the bird nodded.
“There’s twelve of us. Including a demon, but she’s not harmful.” Giyuu told the bird and then flew off as he soared into the night sky.
“You’re talking to your girlfriend in a time like this?” Muchiro stated bluntly.
Giyuu stayed quiet as he looked forward awaiting an answer from the crow as they walked forward, within twenty minutes the crow had arrived, with a scroll in hand and another bird with it.
“Gomei,” Giyuu spoke as the second bird landed on Giyuu’s head, it’s feathers like ice with a chain around its neck.
His own bird dropped the scroll in Giyuu’s hands as he opened it up.
“Well, what a beautiful bird!” Rengoku smiled as the bird glided over to the fire pillar, taking a seat on his head.
“Wow! It’s an Ice Phoenix! I’m surprised he’s taking a seat on your head! But they melt into ice if they bring-”
Tanjiro was interrupted as the bird melted into a large puddle of water, making Rengoku laugh happily as if he wasn’t beaten to a pulp and bleeding.Â
“What a great personality! I bet the owner is just as Spunky!” Rengoku spoke happily as he held a smile on his face.
“She’s allowing us over, she said she’s busy so meet her in the rice fields,” Giyuu spoke out.
“That’s just past the trees,” Tengen informed.
“She must be sweet! If she’s allowing us over even when she’s busy!” Mitsuri gushed. “We have to repay her.”
Giyuu sighed, “Good luck with that I tried.” he mumbled.
“What was that?” Shinobu teased
“We should get going,” Giyuu spoke as he walked forward the others looked at each other and pressed forward as well.
The walk was short as they made it to the rice fields, where they heard kids running around. Yelling for each other as one couldn’t catch each other, there was a splash of water as the kids jumped in the empty water bank from already being harvested. The group stood at the edge of the forest looking out as they noticed the only adult in the next bank, a child on her back and a large basket on her head as she tossed stalks into it carefree as if she had done it day in and day out. The pillars started walking slowly fatigue really catching up with them now, the kids noticed as they quickly exited the empty bank and ran towards the woman as quickly as possible.
“Y/n! Y/n!” They called out as they quickly slid into the water to hide behind her.
“Huh?” She asked turning her head, as she saw the two kids scared out there minds.
“They have swords! They’re gonna hurt you!” the kids cried.
“Now when have I ever let anything happen to any of us.” she smiled as tears brimmed there eyes,” Stay behind me and I’ll take care of it.”
They only nodded as they hid in the water as she climbed up the slope with her full basket as Rengoku rushed over, helping her by grabbing the basket.
“Oh- Thank you-” She paused looking at him.
 “Your face! It’s all cut up! Is this dry blood?” She asked grabbing his cheek softly and trying to rub some off lightly. “ Come! come! I’ll take you to my house! Oh god, you poor baby!” She ushered.
“Y/n.”Â
She turned her head seeing Giyuu standing there covering her mouth she looked at the wreck of a state her friend was in. “Oh, Giyuu…”
He gulped as he slightly started to sweat, as she walked up to him holding his face in her hands. “You’re all beat up…” She looked as she was about to cry tears as she snapped.
“YOU PIECE OF CRAP! HOW DARE YOU!” She slapped his face, making the pillars jump. “HOW DARE YOU COME TO ME IN YOUR STATE OF CONDITION! ALL BEAT UP! YOU KNOW I CARE YOU BITCH!”
She grabbed his face against and pulled him into a quick hug, tears brimming her eyes as Giyu sighed his cheeks a slight red.
“Please! All! Hurry I’ll allow you to my house! And then! I’ll drop the kids off! I’ll tend to all your wounds! No charge!” She cheered pulling Giyuu along while the others still stood there, while she passed by Rengoku she put the basket back on her head and then gestured them all to follow her.
“Kids! They’re safe! There my old friends! Remember the stories!”Â
They soon when from terrified to stars in their eyes, they were told great tales about the pillars from Y/n and certainly were indulged in becoming one themselves as the group followed Y/n.
“Wait! Wait! I wanna stay! Please! I wanna meet the loudest Pillar! He’s awesome!” The young boy shouted pulling on Y/n’s arm.
“No! The water pillar obviously better!” The girl protested.
“Yeah! Well, no one likes the water pillar!”Â
“Everybody likes the water pillar! He’s friends with everybody!”Â
The two kids growled at each other.
“yeah well, there’s the mist pillar! he’s just as awesome!” The boy protested.
“So is the snake pillar!” The girl argued.
“And the stone pillar!” They shouted at each other.
“The wind pillar can fly!” they shouted.
“Stop copying me!”
“The Insect pillar is the smartest!” The boy argued.
“yeah duh! the love pillar is the prettiest! and shes strong!” The girl defended.
“Yeah! I know that!” The boy shouted.
“Matsuda.” Y/n stated as the boy looked up at her, “Aiko.” Y/n smiled as the girl looked up at her, and the baby whined.Â
“And Riku.” Y/n smiled the baby cheered happily as the pillars listened.
“You’re forgetting a pillar.” Y/n spoke.
Giyuu looked blankly at her, “Please don’t get them started yelling about-”
“THE FLAME PILLAR!” They shouted on key as they jumped up and down.
“Such fan girls and boys…” Shinobu laughed lightly.
“I believe they’re much louder than any form I have. It’s flamboyant! I love it!” Tengen smiled.
Rengoku secretly listened in on the two, as they compared on how awesome the flame pillar was, as they walked to the house.Â
“Sorry if there loud the place in a bit of a mess, but I’ll fix you all up and then we can eat.” Y/n apologized as they all entered the house, each of them collapsing on the front room door not able to hold their selves up anymore.
“Kids! Take your shoes off hurry! Put Aniko in her bed for now with some toys, get me water and some wash clothes while I get the medicine.” Y/n stated as the kids did as asked taking the baby and running off as carefully as possible to get what their caregiver had asked.
 She quickly did the same taking her shoes off as she set the basket down and ran to get the medical supplies. Quickly the kids and Y/n returned with the needed supplies.Â
“We’ll get you cleaned up here let you rest a bit, you all must be so exhausted- then we’ll get you separate rooms if you want, or would you all like to be in the same room?” Y/n asked.Â
“Ah, you’re so sweet.” Mitsuri blushed.Â
“Y/n is one of the main skilled people I know that’s not in the demon slayer corps- “ Giyuu winced as Y/n cleaned up his face, soon wiping his hands as well.
“you’ll need a set of small stitches…” Y/n spoke as she wrapped his hand in cloth bandages, “That should hold it, for now, don’t straggle your breathing.”Â
Next, she moved on to Tengen the kids helping with the occasional new water and clean cloth bandages as she moved as quick as possible trying to patch everyone up decently until she could spend more time on one person. When she got to Rengoku last she lightly rubbed the blood off his face, he closed an eye as she wiped over the half of his face then his hand, and asked is he had any major injuries, Rengoku only replied with a nothing I can’t handle as and smiled., but when she smiled at him he felt his eyes soften, her smile was sincere and worry-full, yet she had never met the man in her life. She got up and cleaned her own hands and then helped each one of them up. They slipped there shoes off as they already felt better.
“I’ll cook some food, you all can wait in the dining room and I’ll bring it out.” She smiled.Â
Helping each of them up the small steps if needed, yet Tanjriro, Zenitsu along with an out of the box Nezuko, and forced Inosuke stopped, asking if you needed help. Worried about them, you only told them if they wanted they could watch the kids, saying Matsuda knew how to make bracelets and Aiko would teach them how to paint if they wanted to know. Meanwhile, Riku would most likely be asleep already. They agreed to help you and went to watch the two kids, while you cooked.Â
She was rushing to put some type of substance back in the pillars bodies. She quickly made rice, she rushed outside to the backyard and picked some vegetables. Rengoku came out and helped.
“You don’t need to, go with your friends and rest.” Y/n spoke taking the basket with her hands away from him.
“I don’t have to do a lot of things, but you’ve saved my friends and I from serious injuries, maybe even death.” Rengoku spoke, “Plus, it would be rude not to help.”
Y/n looked down at the basket. “Okay..then could you help by watching your white haired friend to me. He seems aggravated. I don’t want him popping his stitches open.”Â
“Gladly.”Â
