Turtle emerged form the wisteria and saw a long set of stairs which he climbed up. When he arrived at the top he saw six other dragons he saw the red scaled Skywing he noticed -his haori dity- his eyes distant as he muttered "I going to die I'm going to die I'm going to die." Turtle looked around and saw the others, the Hivewing with the glasses -that were now broken- he also saw the blue scaled Silkwing whose talons seemed to be shaking abit. The Rainwing was staring at a butterfly and was changing her scales to match the color of the butterfly's wings. The icewing had an annoyed impatient look on his face same with the dark scaled leafwing.'Only seven of us survived. The nightwing's I saved he didn't make it. Because I blacked out'Just then the two dragonets walked out saying "Congratulations on surviving and welcome to the slayer core." The icewing took a step forward saying "I survived wheres my sword." He room a step forward abs the white scaled dragonet said "You will chose the ores for your swords but first you will receive your Kasugai Crow." She clapped her talons and several cows flew down each landing on their shoulders. "Umm mines a sparrow." Said the Skywing, the sparrow jumped off his shoulder as the icewing yelled "I DON'T WANT A CRAPPY CROW I WANT THE COLOR CHANGING SWORD!" The icewing stormed forward and grabbed the white scaled dragonet by the horn and stared into her eyes saying "GIVE ME THE SWORD NOW!" Turtle grabbed the arm of the icewing saying "Let her go or I'll break your arm." The icewing let out a laugh saying "try it!" The silkwing took a step forward saying "Why don't we all calm down." The icewing gave him a cold stare saying "Stay out of this!" Turtle tightened his grip and there was a crack the icewing took a step back and held his arm dropping the dragonet. The black scaled dragonet said "If your done talking please step forward to select the steel that will be used in your sword which will be made in 10 to 15 days and will be delivered to you after that. Form there you will be measured and will receive your demon slayer uniforms." The cloth was pulled off the alter to reveal several ores and Turtle had no idea which one to take he had never seen ore like this ever. Turtle decided to try something it was unlikely this would work but- he dies died to try it. He took a sniff and walked over and picked up a pice of ore that seemed to be the best.

Turtle collapsed he was tired but he had to get back. He needed to get back for Auklet he needed to turn her back. Turtle staggered up and continued to limp home.

Night had fallen when he had finally seen Webs house. Turtle collapsed he struggled to get back up when he saw auklet awake! He struggled to walk over to her crying and saying "auklet your alive!" He hugged her, he heard wood droop and heard someone run over. Webs hugged the two saying "You survived thank the great ice dragon you did."

Turtle wouod spend the next few days healing from the final Selection. One day a Skywing with awears a sunflower-patterned haori and has his head wrapped in a spotted head scarf, his face is concealed by Hyottoko to conceal his identity. When traveling he wears a large, woven hat with hanging floral wind chimes on top of the head scarf. Turtle couldn't see the Skywing's scales. The Skywing looked at turtle and said "I have a delivery for Turtle." " I'm Turtle would you like to-" he is cut of by the Skywing.
"This is a nichirin sword I crafted my self. It's made form scarlet Iorn sand and scarlet Iorn or they absorb sunlight and it is perfect for slaying demons. The red of your eyes means that your family worked close with fire and it means there's a chanse it will turn red right webs." Asked the Skywing and firm inside the hous webs said "yes."

Turtle stared at the sword as the Skywing who was named Tailwind was saying "I just know this one will turn red for you draw it I need to see it change." Turtle drew the sword and it was a colorless steel but the color soon changed into a deep dark black. "Black?" Turtle stared at the blade confused while webs said "Very intresting." Turtle looked at webs nervous and asked "is black bad?" Webs shook his head saying "No no it isn't it's just very unusual." Tailwind let out an angry growl and tackled turtle and started pulling on his cheeks and horn yelling "I WANTED TO SEE IT TURN RED WHY IS IT BLACK!" Turtles Kasugai Crow flew into the house and loked at Tuetle saying "Head to Tokyo now! Rumor has it there is a demon there!" Turtle stared at the crow dumbfounded and said "It can talk." The crow pecked at Turtle's head yelling "OF COURSE I CAN TALK"

Tailwind after calming down had left and the Crow sat outside waiting for turtle. " Turtle that uniform is water resistant and light weight the fangs and talons of lesser demons will not harm you. As for the black sword some see it as bad luck and that slayers with it won't go far." Turtle smiled and said " I don't care if I'm descend for greatness I just want to turn Auklet back." Webs smiled behind his mask saying " I have no doubt you will turn her back. But to be safe I used some hypnosis so she would see all dragons and friends and all demons as the enemy. I also crafted this box to carry your sister during the day. It is crafted from Kitikumo Cedar and I costed it with rock lacquer to toughen the exterior and make it even more durable." Turtle picked up the box and said "Whoa it is light." He set it next to Auklet and she crawled into the box and turtle closed the door. Turtle and webs stood outside and Turtle turned to leave Webs said "Turtle I must tell you this we do not know the know the name of the leader of the demons but we do know that they call him Rekaltskrad"
