Day One:
I'm cold. Today is a cold day. Everything is covered with snow.
No turning back.
The forest that I burst out of is creepy. I can't go back. Everything is dark there. Everything is scary. On the outside, everything is cold.
But it beats the dark and bloody forest.
You see, I am a demonslayer. A new one. A just turned demonslayer. I just came one because I...I just escaped death. Tell you more later. I'm too tired.
Day Two:
I was born into a wealthy family. The eldest of ten siblings, I was usually well off on my own.
That saved me.
I was wandering the castle like usual when it moved. Startled, I realized something.
Oh No....
Every day, the little tremors I have been feeling were from the castle moving.
There was something terribly wrong.
I had read about the first demon, Muzan. He slaughtered humans and turned them into demons. And he had a place called the infinity castle. It could move everywhere without being undetected.
And I was LIVING in it.
The floor moved and down I fell....
Then I saw him.
The Demon Lord.
My family was unknowingly moved in this place! To be killed!
HOLY-
I was too late. My brothers and sisters were dead, having their arms and heads exploded. My parents, eaten with only bones left. Muzan was grinning sickly.
WAIT!
Something is moving!!
Hono!!
Honoooooo!
Hono is alive! He's alive! He's...
A demon.
I ran. Ran before they saw me. Ran before I was killed. Ran for my life. I burst out of the door, tears flooding my eyes. I ran out of the forest the infinity castle was hiding in. Ran all the way to here, a snowy mountain.
Collapsing, I woke up, tired and alone. Then I remembered that I could become a demonslayer. Maybe I could heal my brother Hono. Maybe I could defeat the demon that ripped my family away.
Maybe.
Day Three:
I FOUND IT!!!!! I FOUND THE BLADE!!! YESSSSSSSSSSS!!!
The buried nirchin blade! I unsheathed it and.....!
WHAT.
IT TURNED PURPLE.
WHAT.
HOW?
I can't be a- a- a magic bender....
It's too dangerous to use the Magic Bending... I know it but I could kill myself and-
No... I buried this blade in an emergency...but when I unsheathed it, it turn purple!
So... am I a demon slayer now?
How do I becomeโฆ. Right! I know! The final selection! I just need to survive seven days!
Gotta get to the final selection. I need to train!
Wait.
Why am I doing this? Just because a dumb blade turned purple? Or because my family-
*gasps and wipes tears*
Let's do this.
Day Four:
"AAAAAAAAAAAAaaaAAAAAH!!!"
So, I apparently have to defeat demons and survive for seven days. Wow. This is day six, as I started yesterday immediately. They let me in quickly, as they saw my blade. I have met a coward named Zenitsu, who met me and then begged me to marry him. Quiet Kanao, who uses Flower Breathing and Is the adoptive sister of Shinobu. We were friends right away, with me talkingย a lot. There was also a cute boy named Tanjiro. He was kind and smiled sweetly. His blade was black.
"At least it's not purple..."
Magic Benders use deep thrust's multiple times on an enemy to paralyze, poison, stun, freeze, burn, or just make them disappear. They are the only benders who can heal themselves. The bending is derived from insect breathing, and one of my idols, Shinobu, uses it. I know her because I got attacked by a demon and had gotten bitten multiple times before Shinobu destroyed it. Since then I have trained my breathing. Who knew that it would end like this...
I fingered my star-shaped handguard nervously. Brushed my very long hair away from itโs draped position over my eye. Yep. My hair grew long during the demon attack, and so did my nails. I don't need human flesh, but I like blood. I hate demons.
Rustle.
Day Five.
Iโm so tired. Demons everywhere. Must kill themโฆ!
โA fffffffresh girrrrrrrlโฆ.. Yummmmmmyโฆ.โ
I deflected one of the demonโs spikes and cut off itโs head using Magic Breathing, first form: Shade Star Slice.
โGasp...Gasp...Gasp.โ
Clink!
โTanjiro!โ
Another demon appeared and reached for me, andโฆ Tanjiro saved me.ย
โYou alright?โ
โYes..โ
He grins and speeds off.
I donโt want to fight anymore. I hate demons. I hate them. Hate their laugh. Hate their faces. Hate demons.
Swish.
โArgh!โ
I slice another demonโs head and legs, for good measure.
I hate them for slaughtering my family.
I slump towards the ground. Then I hear a voice.
โMajikku!โ
โKanao!โ
โCome on! Tanjiro needs help!โ
I better go with Kanao now.
Day Six:
Magic Breathing Forms:
First form: Shade Star Slice
Second: Shadow Swing
Third: Dark Destroyer
Forth: Enchanting Mist
Fifth: Healing Aurora.
Sixth: Sword Spell Of A Thousand Hells
Seventh: Made by me. Seresute. Enhances mind power and speed. The user achieves superspeed and cuts the enemy with sharp slashes and uses their boosted brain power to land precise hits.
Day Seven:
โS-six?!โ
Only six of us demonslayers made it. There were twenty sevenย of us. I feel sick.
Tanjiro is here, with Kanao and Zenitsu. A gun welding demonslayer, Genya, stands sour faced. There was a boar head guy, but he is not here. We get our next missions and I head off with Kanao. I did it. I am a demon slayer nowโฆย
Mom. Dad. Sister. Brother. H-Hono.
I will avenge you.
Day eight.
โOof-โ
I fall again. This next mission is so far away. At least Kanao is here. I donโt now if I can- IS THAT THE PILLARโS HEADQUARTERS?
I fall again.
โMajikku?โ
I- I canโt breath.
Everything is black..
Noโฆ Kanaoโฆ. Noโฆ
Wake up, Majjiku.
Mother?
Yes.
I canโt. Iโm too tired. Too hurt. Too-
Stop. Get up. You have to do this. Go to the pillars.
Momโฆ
Go...You can do itโฆ.
I gasp and wake up. Then I see Kanaoโs concerned faceโฆ
โWhat?โ
I then see all the pillars.
Day Nine:
โYOU SHOULD BE A PILLAR!!!โ
โWhy- please- no-โ
โCome on!โ
One of the girls that are taking care of me wants me to become a pillar. Iโm not sure.
When I explained my situation to the pillars, they accepted me as a trainee. I trained very hard these past two mouths, and could be a pillar. Butโฆ
โI dunno if I couldโฆ I could dieโฆ I could get capturedโฆโ
"COME on!!"
Night:
After a lot of thinking, I went to go tell the pillars my decision and ran into an excited Shinobu.
โMajikku.... I found out that we are related! It was in your father's will!โ
I gasp.
My idol. I am related to my idol.
Mom....
Dad...
Honoo.....
Kanao.
I can protect you.
All of you. AND Shinobu.
I WON'T LET YOU DOWN.
Day Ten:
Iโm a pillar now.ย
I can fight demons.ย
Kill Muzan.
I'll take revenge for my parents.
I have pillar friends and all the pillars are so nice.
Mom. Dad. Hono. Iโm finally here. At home.
SHOULD I CONTINUE THIS SERIES? I'LL ADD A FEW REEDSY FRIENDS IN HERE IF I CONTINUE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

I barely understood anything since I haven't watched Demon Slayer as yet lol but it's in my watch list ๐ I like your writing style, but I'll be able to judge you better after I read more of your stories. I'd suggest cutting down on the excessive exclamation marks and drawn-out words when you write. A little clarity is required there. Otherwise, it's all good!

SIS YES so can you tell me your forms and their names?

Ok Mothsplosion: Moths surround the enemy and the attacker is invisible for a second, then the pray is cut and shattered. Moth flutter: The moths pick the prey up and lets the attacker attack however they want to. Silver sliver: Letโs the attacker cut many slivers of the prey. Howโs that? Is that good?
Reply
Three forms! Great! Can moth breathing be derived from incest breathing?
Reply
We need a backstory,......
Reply
For the first question: I think so! Second one; you mean a backstory for the moth breathing or the Majikku story?
Reply
Backstory for your character!
Reply
Hi Celeste! You are the last one on my list haha.. I have a few thoughts on this particular story. This was a very interesting story..and its obviously fan fiction, and since I haven't fully watched Demon Slayer I didn't get most of the parts. I found the story a little jumpy..like your on one scene then you jump to the next- then the next. So I was sorta confused on most parts. I also found the plot extremely quick! I feel like if it was slowed down just a little it would have been more flowy..? thats not a word aha. But yeah..I found it ...
Reply
:D TAnks! Iโll try to improve! (I am a short commenter. I am sorry >.<)

Of course! Its okay๐
