Screen 1 – Papyrus Saves Inosuke at the Last Second (Dark Version)
The district burns.
Blood seeps between the broken tiles.
Lanterns flicker and fall like dying fireflies.
Crushed bodies of demons and civilians lie half-buried in rubble.
Zenitsu moves in his sleep-mode rage—
eyes closed, but instincts sharper than steel.
Daki fires Obi after Obi—
SHOOM—SHOOM—SHOOM!
Each strike tears deep grooves through the rooftops, slicing stone like rotten fruit.
But Zenitsu's body cuts them apart before they even fully form, his lightning trailing like a ghost.
Daki screams, veins bulging, madness in her voice:
"STOP MOVING—STOP MOVING—STOP MOVING!!"
But Zenitsu doesn't hear her.
He breathes.
He moves.
He kills.
---
Inosuke's Brutal Kill
Inosuke is a monster unleashed.
He tears through walls—
CRASH!!
Rips through floors—
SMASH!!
Shreds beams—
WHAM! WHAM! WHAM!!
Blood stains his blades.
His breathing is ragged, feral.
He explodes from a collapsing building, twisting mid-air like a rabid wolf.
His pupils shrink.
"You're DEAD!!!"
Both Nichirin blades descend—
SHING—!!!
Daki's head separates cleanly.
Her upper body peels apart exactly as in the anime, flesh tearing open like fragile paper.
Zenitsu lands beside him, trembling with the last of his electricity.
"…Inosuke… we did it."
But Daki's head only laughs from the floor.
A whisper coated in venom:
"You idiots…
I won't die unless my brother dies."
Inosuke freezes.
"Brother…?"
---
Gyutaro Appears – Darker
A sickening, wet laugh echoes behind them.
"Hehehe…
Right here."
Inosuke turns—
but even he isn't fast enough.
Gyutaro is mid-swing.
Poison drips from his sickle in thick streams.
His grin is stretched like a corpse's cracked jaw.
Zenitsu's scream shreds through the air.
"INOSUKE!!!"
But another voice cuts in—
"NOT ON MY WATCH!"
---
Papyrus Blocks the Kill
KRRAAASH!!!
A massive bone barrier erupts from the rooftop—
white, jagged, and steaming from the force of the impact.
Gyutaro's sickle SLAMS into it with a murderous clang.
He snarls, fury twisting his already deformed face.
"What—!?
A damn bone wall!?"
Papyrus stands on the ruined ledge, shaking violently, both hands pushing out more bone structures to reinforce the shield.
"I—
WILL NOT LET YOU—
KILL HIM!!!"
The bone wall fractures.
Poison burns cracks through it like rotting flesh.
Gyutaro presses harder, eyes narrowing into animal slits.
"You skeleton pests…
always in the way…"
The shield SPLITS—
Papyrus screams as pressure crushes his arms—
"INOSUKE—GO!
RUN!"
Inosuke doesn't argue.
He sprints away with Zenitsu, both nearly tripping over dead bodies and falling rubble.
---
The Barrier Shatters
CRAAAACK—SHATTER!!!
The bone shield explodes into dust and shards.
Papyrus flies backward, rolling across the rooftop—
but he forces himself up again, spear shaking in his hands.
Gyutaro flicks bone dust off his sickle.
"Tch…
One second more and pig-boy was meat."
He licks his blade slowly.
"But YOU ruined the kill."
Papyrus steadies his stance, trembling but unbroken.
"I WILL RUIN…
EVERY KILL YOU TRY!!"
Gyutaro grins—
a predator grinning at prey that refuses to run.
"Ohhh?
Then entertain me, bone-boy."
The night deepens.
The blood shines darker.
Their fight begins.
---
Screen 2 – The Synchronized Finish (Dark Version)
The entire district shakes.
Roofs collapse.
Broken lanterns burn red.
Every breath tastes like smoke and iron.
Tanjiro can barely see.
Poison floods his veins like molten metal.
His vision pulses with black spots.
Uzui locks Gyutaro's arms in a desperate clash.
"Tanjiro!!
NOW!!"
Gyutaro tries one last explosion—
but something cracks the air like a gunshot.
Sans teleports beside Tanjiro, snapping his fingers.
A glowing orange platform forms under Tanjiro's feet—
steadying him, anchoring him.
Sans whispers through ragged breaths:
"Kid…
push.
Just… push."
On the other side—
Papyrus leaps in behind Daki, bones erupting from the ground.
Jagged spikes pin all her obi in place—
trapping her like a pinned insect.
"NO ESCAPING!
ZENITSU! INOSUKE!
STRIKE NOW!!"
Zenitsu's last lightning tears the ground.
Inosuke's muscles bulge, ribs cracking under the strain.
Gyutaro fires another explosion—
—but Sans slams up a bone barrier behind Tanjiro and Uzui.
The barrier glows blue—cracks—
but holds.
"No more…
cheap shots."
Tanjiro roars.
Zenitsu roars.
Inosuke roars.
Papyrus screams:
"EVERYONE—TOGETHER!!"
In one catastrophic second—
Both demons' heads fly.
A blinding white light erupts—
so bright it dissolves every shadow on the rooftops.
The shockwave hits like a hurricane.
Windows burst.
Blood mist scatters into the night.
Sans lowers his hand.
Papyrus collapses to his knees, laughing breathlessly.
"We…
WE DID IT!"
The battlefield goes silent.
---
Screen 20 – The Aftermath (Dark Version)
Smoke curls over the district like a shroud.
Flames crackle quietly.
Bodies—human and demon—lie motionless.
Daki and Gyutaro's broken bodies twitch on the rubble.
Their hatred melts.
Their voices soften.
Their hands reach—
trembling—
touching one last time.
A moment of peace
in a lifetime of misery.
They crumble into ash—
together.
---
Uzui Falls
Uzui collapses backward, blood pouring from his wounds.
Tanjiro grabs him desperately.
"Uzui!! Please—don't move!"
Uzui coughs violently.
"No more…
flashy fights…
I'm done."
He laughs once—
a tired, broken laugh.
"If another demon shows up…
deal with it yourselves…"
He falls limp.
Tanjiro cries out:
"Uzui!!"
---
Tanjiro Collapses
The poison wins.
His body gives out.
He collapses beside Uzui, barely conscious.
"It's… finally over…"
His voice is nothing but a whisper.
---
Zenitsu & Inosuke Melt Down (Dark-Tone Humor)
Zenitsu lies face-down in the rubble.
"I'm dead.
Totally dead.
Please… bury me with a nice stone…"
Inosuke, even with broken ribs and blood in his lungs, shouts:
"I WON!
I BEAT BOTH DEMONS MYSELF!"
Zenitsu lifts his head.
"YOU WERE DYING FIVE MINUTES AGO!!"
Inosuke snarls:
"SHUT UP! THAT WAS MY ULTRA-HIDDEN TECHNIQUE!"
---
Sans & Papyrus – Bleeding but Alive
Sans sits on a burned beam, hoodie ripped, bones cracked, eye flickering.
"welp…
that sucked."
He looks at the slayers—
all unconscious or barely breathing.
"…but hey.
they're alive.
I'll take that."
Papyrus limps over, armor shattered, cape shredded, covered in dust and dried blood.
"SANS!!
WE SURVIVED!
WE ACTUALLY SURVIVED!!!
AND I ONLY ALMOST DIED EIGHT TIMES!!"
Sans huffs a weak laugh.
"yeah…
sounds about right for you."
Papyrus looks at the injured slayers—
and his expression softens.
"They…
fought with everything they had."
Sans nods.
"That's why we fought too."
Papyrus places a hand on Sans' shoulder.
"Because we are…
heroes."
Sans smirks.
"heh.
guess so."
Sunlight breaks over the ruined rooftops.
Blood.
Ash.
Smoke.
Silence.
The Entertainment District Arc ends—
in fire, pain, and victory.
