"GO AWAY!" The kid yells. "I'M NOT HANDING MY KEY OVER, NO MATTER WHAT! AND I DEFINITELY AIN'T TEACHING YOU HOW TO USE IT!!"

'What's happening? Are they arguing? What mow? Eavesdropping is bad. But if they're fighting I have ti intervene.'

Tanjiro watched the arguing until the Mist Hashira hit the child. Then the Hashira grabbed the kid by the collar.

"HEEEY! WHAT ARE YOU DOING!" Tanjiro yelled running over dragging Akari since she was gripping onto his hand.

"LET GO OF HIM!" Tanjiro yelled grabbing the wrist of the Hashira.

"Your voice is so annoying. Who are you?" The Hashira asked emotionless.

"What're you doing to a kid?! Get your..gh!" 

'He's not flinching..! He has thinner arms, and he's smaller than me...!'

"You let go." Muichiro said firmly.

Then he elbowed Tanjiro in the stomach resulting in him falling to the ground.

"You're really weak. I have no idea how you got into the demon slayers." Muichiro then looked at Akari. "Hmm. I sense something strange. It feels like a demon. Is that..." He said reaching his hand out to grab Akari but was slapped away.

"Don't touch her."

Tanjiro turned to the little kid.

"Are you okay?"

"G-get off me!" The kid whined.

"You don't look so good. Take care of yourself!" Tanjiro said.

"GO AWAY!! I'm not handing this key over to anyone! Not even under torture! 'It's' gonna break very soon!"

"Have you ever been under torture? Not even adults can endure it so it's impossible for you. It seems like you're just a dumb kid who doesn't know his place. And so what if it breaks? Just make another. You know, in all this time that you've been grumbling and mumbling. This is what happens when you get in the way of a Hashira. Unlike you, a Hashira's time is extremely important. You'd  understand if you thought a little. Swordsmiths can'y fight. They can't save lives. Weapons are all they're good for. C'mon. Key. Understand your place when you act. You're not a baby anymore you know?" Muichiro said reaching his hand out.

Tanjiro raised his hand trying to hit it away but instead only have him a light highfive as the Hashira was much stronger.
