Tanjiro: How can we keep Nezuko away from the sun?
Tanjiro and Edward are currently trying to find some way to conceal Nezuko from sunlight so she won't burn to a crisp.
Edward: I dunno, maybe if we find some box or a-
Out of the corner of his eye, Edward spots a basket sitting out of use on the ground by a small house.
Edward: -basket..... how did I do that?
Tanjiro: Wait here, I'll go see if they'll let us have it.
Tanjiro walks up to a few farmers and sees if he can take the basket off their hands. While that's happening, Edward takes in the scenery.
Edward: *Sigh* How could anyone want to destroy this world. Such a shame.
Tanjiro comes up behind Edward, "I got the basket!"
Edward jumps in surprise, "AH!.... Don't do that!
Tanjiro chuckles, "Heh, I'm sorry. Didn't mean to scare you."
Edward: Yeah, yeah, whatever. Come on, Nezuko's waiting on us.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Tanjiro: Nezuko! We're back!
Tanjiro sets down the now fixed basket and looks to where Nezuko is supposed to be hiding. Though, Tanjiro didn't see her.
Tanjiro: She's gone....
Nezuko: .... hmmm....
Nezuko pops her head up, revealing she had dug a hole to hide even more from the sunlight.
Edward: Nope, she's right there.
Tanjiro: I noticed.....
Edward kneels down and looks towards Nezuko, "We're gonna come in, alright?"
Nezuko:.... hmm....
Tanjiro and Edward crawl towards Nezuko and set the basket down in front of her.
Tanjiro: Nezuko, can you fit in here?
Nezuko crawls out of the hole and goes head first into the basket.... she doesn't fit.
Tanjiro: Hmmm, maybe she can get smaller instead of bigger.
Tanjiro: Try getting smaller Nezuko. Smaller, Nezuko, smaller.
Edward: How can she get sma-
Nezuko flips the basket up and shrinks to the perfect size to fit into the basket.
Tanjiro: There you go, good job, Nezuko.
Tanjiro pats Nezuko's head and looks towards Edward, "Alright, I think we're ready to.... go.
Edward is looking at Nezuko like she is a lost kitten that needs protection.
Edward: You are so adorable! I must protect you with my life.
Tanjiro: Uh, Edward? Are you okay?
Edward: Huh....oh...OH, yeah, yeah, I'm fine. Let's go!
~Timeskip~
???: Mount Sagiri? Well, you'd have to cross those mountains there but it is getting late, are you sure you want to head there with all that luggage?
Edward: We're fine, thank you for your worry, but we will be alright.
Edward and Tanjiro continue on their way.
???: People have been going missing lately! Try not to lose your way!
