the master of the demon slayers, seemed pretty young too, maybe 20 or so..
"so today, I asked for all the tsugokus of the hashiras to come because..., I wanted to see the strength of the tsugoku and the hashira together, so we will be doing, tsugoku and hashiras vs their tsugoku and the hashira, so let's get started. I'll pick two paper chits, the hashira and their tsugoku come forward. the last ones surviving with battle together.., Isamu, Kanae"
after a few battles, me and Kanae got into the finals with Akihiko. in those few days, I learned flower breathing, but didn't like the feeling of using it, so I made my own breathing technique, insect breathing, or more specifically, butterfly breathing.
"alright then, the finalists come forward!"
I follow behind Kanae coming upfront, she leans down and whispers the plan into the ear, and I nod. as Akihiko comes forward alone, I stay behind Kanae.
as the battle starts Akihiko stands a fast blow on kanae's arm, giving her a few minor injuries, after a few blows, kanae jumps into the sky, making Akihiko jump too, but when he reaches to find his sword he finds nothing there...
when kanae was jumping into the sky I grabbed his sword sneakingly and threw it onto his place to make sure he forgets that I'm also there. he sees the sword on his place and rolls his eyes kicking her across the yard and landing at the trunk of a tree, she had a few minor injuries but this one was not a minor injury, as he went to get his sword back, I hid on a tree ready to blow my attack whenever he let his guard down.
"master, let's stop this match before any major injuries occur.."
the master laughs and says "I think you're forgetting someone Akihiko."
as he says that i blow my attack, butterfly breathing, second form, flying cuts.., I fly towards his neck he turns around too late and reaches his sword, he ducks down just in time to avoid the attack, he almost fell back. i land on the fence behind him and rush to kanae sitting there.
I reached her and she looked at me, proud that I was able to pull that off, I helped her up and onto her place.
i get back into place, ready for a fight.
"You're a tsugoku, and ur fighting without ur sister?.." he asks confused,
just then i dash forward with my sword, but he is able to block it and attack back, i block it and attack back faster. this pace goes on for a while, so much time that we are not even fighting in the yard anymore. Martha's powers start acting up in the process, but i ignore it and continue attacking. I had some advantages from him, like stamina, i could fight with more energy than him for longer periods of time, agility, but he had some things over me too, like strength, speed, defence, I had offence over him, but could barely give him any minor injuries. this went on until the master declared it as a tie.
"it's been 2 hours, let's declare this year's finalists are equal?, a tie!"
i put my sword back into the sheath and walk towards kanae ignoring Akihiko basically trying to catch a breath...
