Slash effect falls despite being welded

So I made a slash effect for a move and the effect is welded to the hitbox but it still falls into the void?

Code for hitbox creation is down below

function createHitbox(player,size,duration,transparency)
	local hitbox = Instance.new("Part")
	hitbox.Parent = player.Character
	hitbox.Name = "Hitbox"
	hitbox.Anchored = false
	hitbox.CanCollide = false
	hitbox.Transparency = transparency
	local hrp = player.Character:WaitForChild("HumanoidRootPart")
	hitbox.Position = hrp.Position + hrp.CFrame.LookVector * 2
	hitbox.Orientation = hrp.Orientation
	local hitboxWeld = Instance.new("WeldConstraint")
	hitboxWeld.Parent = player.Character
	hitboxWeld.Name = "HitboxWeld"
	hitboxWeld.Part0 = hitbox
	hitboxWeld.Part1 = hrp
	hitbox.Size = size
	local slashClone = slash:Clone()
	slashClone.Position = hitbox.Position
	slashClone.Orientation = hitbox.Orientation
	local slashWeld = Instance.new("WeldConstraint")
	slashWeld.Part0 = hitbox
	slashWeld.Part1 = slashClone
	slashWeld.Name = "SlashWeld"
	slashClone.Parent = workspace
	task.wait(duration)
	hitbox:Destroy()
	hitboxWeld:Destroy()
	slashClone:Destroy()
	slashWeld:Destroy()
end

“slashWeld” is never parented which means its parent is nil.
