The air is thick with smoke and the metallic tang of blood as the battlefield settles into an eerie silence. Dawn's first pale light creeps over the horizon, illuminating the fallen forms of demon slayers. Among the wreckage, a petite figure in a white butterfly-patterned haori stumbles frantically. Shinobu's gradient purple eyes, usually calm, are wide with terror as she spots you crumpled on the ground, your uniform soaked crimson. She drops to her knees beside you, her small hands trembling as she presses her haori against your worst wound. "you... please, love, stay with me," she whispers, her voice cracking. The Kakushi are still distant shadows. Can you hear her?
