Ch. 9 Alternate Timeline Shinobu's Forceful Merger

We passed the exams and officially became Keyblade wielders. We did jobs that require us to kill Heartless to help locals around the area. I'm still wondering what should be my goal or dream, I don't have anything right now but every night I have a weird dream of a woman enraged that she couldn't d kill someone as she called herself weak. one month later, I have grown in strength as well My Familiars.

I'm Level 35 now, Zero and Malinda are{Lv29) and {Lv32) giving me the abilities of Magic Armor and Dragonskin. 'We got a mission tomorrow so it is best to go to bed now,' I thought as I went to sleep.

"Where am I?" I asked myself because right now I'm in a black void with glowing blue water under my feet.

"I think we are in your Mindscape," A voice said as I turn around to see a woman (Lv68) with a black to purple bun fasten by a butterfly ornament hair, a dark purple uniform very similar to Tanjiro's clothes,  With butterfly wings pattern haori.

"Wait a minute you're that weird butterfly lady that stabs my teammates in our exam, Why are you in my mind!?" I asked confused about what the hell is going on.

"My name is Shinobu I follow your heart here if that makes sense, I am not that woman you fought a while ago, I'm from a different timeline where I was killed by an Upper Moon Demon named Doma," She said with Anger.

"I know what a Demon is but what is an Upper Moon Demon?" I asked.

Shinobu explained what the Demon Moons are.

"So you are saying The Demon King is a coward that He needs 12 Elite Demons to protect him," I said to her.

"Yes, that's about it. My biggest regret was not killing Doma Upper Moon 2 with My own hands, So I came here to ask you something," Shinobu said with a cold expression.

"What do you a dead person wants to ask me?" I asked.

"I desire to kill Doma personally but as you know I'm already dead, so I am asking you if I can merge with you and kill Doma in that timeline you were In a month ago," Shinobu said with veins appearing on her raging face.

'Her killing Intent is too strong' I thought sweating from the pressure.

"Why do you want to kill Doma that badly!"I yelled.

"That Bastard Kill My Sister!!!" Shinobu Shouted as my Mindscape shakes.

"Ahhhhh!" I screamed I feel my entire being breaking.

I turn into a ball of light while Shinobu turned into a ball of darkness, they move towards each other merging into one. In a grey ball out came a being with one goal in mind "I will kill you Doma," The person said.

The next morning,

"Hey, Power it's time to get up... Wait where is Power at," Sakura said as she sees only Zero and Malinda sleeping in the room.

Demon Slayer World

'Why do I go to a different place every time I wake up,' I thought as I woke up in a different room than my own.

"Oh good you are awake," Shinobu said.

I immediately try to attack her but I am chained to the bed

"The Fuck you do to me you bitch!" I yelled Struggling to get out of the bed.

"So it is true, a different version of me failed in killing that Demon," Shinobu said sadly.

"The Fuck are you talking about lady... wait you're the one I fought back then, Why am I here, and How the hell do you know about the other you?" I asked confused right now since I just woke up.

"We found you in the backyard on the ground, I was surprised to find out the boy that was almost got close to my speed was in the backyard in a near-death state. For some reason, your body was changing slowly looking very similar to me," She said as she pick up a small mirror directing it to my face.

I see a girl that looks like Shinobu but has Red hair with Light blue highlights, Ruby eyes, and without lipstick 'wait a second, that's me!'

"Ahhhhh, What the Fuck happened to me!" I yelled.

"You Likely fuse with the other me but you are still a boy," Shinobu said giving a thumb up.

"Wait How do you know-"

"I will not answer that question," Shinobu replied.

"Okay then answer this, How do you know about the other you," I said

"Your conversation with her was on repeat when you were sleeping, I also heard her voice from your mouth," She said.

"Well whatever I still hate you, ya know," I said with an angry face.

"Understandable, I will hate someone too if they force me to merge with them," Shinobu replied with a smile.

"I hate to say this but can you train me in Total Concentration breathing," I asked in annoyance.

"Yes I can, I believe it also best you go to Rehabilitation Training With Tanjiro(Lv26 and Inosuke(Lv25)," Shinobu said.

"Is Tanjiro and Nezuko okay?" I asked worriedly.

"They are Fine, the Master approves of her being here," Shinobu replied as she break the chains and we go to 'Rehabilitation training'

We make it there, Shinobu opens the door and I see Tanjiro and the boar mask guy named Inosuke saying "Help me" as their muscles are getting flexed hard by the 3 main nurses of the mansion.

"Let's do this," I said walking in to meet the challenges ahead.

In week one, I met Inosuke and Zenitsu they are weird but they are good people.

Under Aoi Kanzaki and Kanao Tsuyuri(Lv52), Tanjiro and Inosuke do their best to regain their strength as I trained my Reflex and Speed(For Insect breathing) by trying to Dodge attacks from Kanao without using abilities and magic, only using Cure magic to heal my injuries to keep training more also learned Total concentration breathing by the end of the week. (+Lv4)

In week two, Zenitsu(Lv25) join us in training and quickly caught up to Tanjiro and Inosuke, I am learning Dance of the Dragonfly: Compound Eye Hexagon and Dance of the Centipede: Hundred-Legged Zigzag from Shinobu while Kanao increases the difficulty on my reflexes and speed, one thing I notice is that she very focus when she training me, Kanao doesn't even use her coin to see she want to train me or not. (+Lv4)

In week three, we found out about Total Concentration: Constant from Shinobu would allow us to have greater Strength, Stamina, and Speed in a fight, maintaining a total concentration state In the morning, noon, evening, and night is the key to mastering this thing, I also try this while Dodging Kanao's attacks but seeing I'm going faster than I should, she put 50 pounds of weights on my body to weigh me down and I continue trying to outspeed her attack while trying to use Total Concentration: Constant, lastly I had learned the two forms of insect breathing Shinobu taught me and I'm trying to get my fire to work in the forms. (+Lv4)

Week four, all 4 of us finally did total concentration: Constant by blowing up big durable gourds with just our breathing, Mastering this technique and my danger sense getting sharper I can dodge Kanao(Lv54) attacks with ease even while weighed, I learn to combine my fire learning Dance of the Flaming Dragonfly: Compound Eye Hexagon and Dance of the Sun Centipede: Hundred-Legged Zigzag. (+Lv3) End of the week I got a Dark-Red Demon Slayer uniform and a black butterfly wings pattern haori with flames on the end. I asked for a Scarlet Ore Keychain a week back and they made it with a Butterfly at the end of it. Shinobu(Lv60) gave it to me and asked why I wanted something like this and I said watch this as I summon my keyblade taking out the keychain and putting on the butterfly one. My keyblade changed into looking like Shinobu's Nichirin Sword but the Stinger is flipped and it is thicker.

"This should work like a Nichirin Sword now," I said.

"You can change its form but changing the keychain at the end is pretty cool," Shinobu said with a smile.

"Power, 40 people went missing on the Mugen train, You are tasked with 3 other Demon Slayers to find the demon behind this," The crow said passing by us.

My blood boils hearing the word demon due to the other Shinobu being within me.

"Then take me in the direction you dumbass bird!" I yelled as I follow the crow.

'Please stay safe' Shinobu thought as she sees her older sister somewhat in Power.
