A Duty And A Wish

Chapter 1 - Returns Back Home

Sango returns to her village after being called to defeat a demon. She was dress in her Demon Slayer outfit and was holding Hiraikotsu.

Sango then stopped in front of the gate that would open to the village. She called out that she was back, but instead of the gate making noises while opening; nothing happened, not even a voice called out to her.

"Everyone! I'm back!" She yelled out again, hoping someone would answer her. But no one did.

She really didn't want to ruin the gateway, but she had no other choose if she wanted to get in. She got Hiraikotsu in position and then swung it towards the gate while yelling out "Hiraikotsu!"

Hiraikotsu flew and smash the gate open, breaking the wooden doors as Hiraikotsu flew back to Sango. She caught Hiraikotsu and hold it behind her.

After breaking the gates open, there was a smokescreen, but it faded afterwards. Sango began to walk in, but stopped in terror. Her face was full of shock and horror.

"Wh... What happened... here?" Sango questioned aloud as she dropped Hiraikotsu.

She walked forward, pretty much inside the village by now. She stared and stared as tears covered the bottom of her eyes.

The village... Was destroyed. The village ground was covered in blood and thousands of dead bodies. Bodies of both human and demons. Everywhere you look, there would be blood from the dead.

This treachery is be on the worst thing that anyone could feel or see. Death was everywhere. On the ground, in the air, not a single being moved.

Sango couldn't move, her legs won't listen, not any part of her body would. All she felt was a limb body, a body that made her fall to the ground with tears springing down her face. Hands covered her sobbing face. No tears stopped, not one. They all rush down her face without a stop.

Before anything else could happen, there was a crashing sound of wooden houses falling.

Sango looked up to see what it could be, but she didn't see anything. She was positive that there was a noise, yet nothing moved when she looked up. Her tears seem to have dry once she heard something.

Sango stumbling stood and went to grab Hiraikotsu from the ground. She held it as she putted on a serious face. Hiraikotsu was held behind her back, like usual. Sango took slow and quiet steps as she headed forward.

She watched and listened to the place carefully. Wondering if something really is alive somewhere in this death place.

Then, all of a sudden she heard a noise. Sango turn directly to where she believe the noise was at. But nothing moved. All that moved was the fall of a wooden stick on top of a rooftop of an house.

She walked closer to the house that had moved. Slowly and quietly she stepped. She stopped once she thought that the distance between her and the broken house was good enough.

Sango didn't know what to do, all she did now was watch the house carefully or maybe something might just attack while she was off guard.

A loud crash sound rang the place. Sango was about to stand in front of the broken door when another loud crash came at the door like an explosion, making Sango fly back as she falls to the ground. Hitting her bottom and back.

Sango sat up, holding a hand to her head like she had a headache or something. When she opened her eyes, the creature standing in front of her was wrestling a demon's body part with its jaw.

Sango then lit up a happy face as she stand to run toward the creature. She wrapped her arms around its furry neck.

"Kirara! I'm so glad to see that you're alright!" Sango said, excitement filling her. Kirara just purr as she rubbed her furry head onto Sango. They could of continued, but now is not the time to.

"What happened here?" Sango said out loud, while eyeing the whole place. Kirara then gripped Sango's arm and tries tugging her somewhere.

Sango looked surprised of not knowing what Kirara wanted, but she followed anyway.

Once they both reached the place Kirara pointed out, it was a small house which now looks as if torn down, which probably has been by demons.

Kirara let go of Sango's arm and ran inside. "Wait! Kirara!" Sango yelled, while running to catch up to her. Luckily, the inside doesn't seem like it was going to drop any sooner now.

Sango just stare as she continues forward to where Kirara was. She heard the sound Kirara was making, so she ran to see what was up. And when she did, she wished she had never seen what she just saw.
