Chapter 9

" You where right Yahaba! A building just appeared out of no-where!"

" The handiwork of a Blood demon arts wielder adept to hiding objects. And is the demon hunter accompanied by a demon? What's going on here?"

" Isn't this fun?"

" Still, I have to say, Susamaru, your way of doing things is so immature. So careless. You splattered me! You splattered my kimono with dust!"

" Oh stop whining! We found them anyway thanks to my temari, so who cares? And now we can have tons of fun!" She threw her temari and it damaged more of the building.

" You've splattered me again!"

" You're so uptight! Your kimono isn't the least bit soiled. And besides...Found 'em! Found 'em!"

A temari! So, she caused all this damage, by throwing that temari?! She laughed and threw the ball again, it flying in random directions. Tanjirou clutched into me harder, covering me from the falling pieces of the house. The ball went to Yushiro's head, before suddenly changing directions, leaving, and then blasting his head off.

" Yushiro!" Lady Tamayo caught him just before he hit the ground. Tanjirou still didn't let go of me though. " Dammit! Tanjirou! Take the lady sleeping in the back room somewhere safe outside!"

" It's too dangerous outside!" Interrupted Tamayo. " We have a basement, so take her there!"

" Understood! Tanjirou! Please let go of me and take her!"

" But you could get your head blasted off!" I sighed and turned to look at him.

" I will be fine Tanjirou. Trust me. Just get the lady to safety and come right back, okay?" He looked at me before sighing, and running off. I took out my sword and faced the demon.

" That's one down!" She is giving off a totally different presence than any of the other demons! Is it stronger? It's an extremely heavy presence. It feels so heavy in my head!

" The demon hunter with vine markings on her forehead, and the demon with hanafuda-earrings...It's you, isn't it?" So me and Tanjirou are the ones they are targeting.

" Miss Tamayo! Please find a place to hide! Me and Tanjirou are the ones those demons are afrer!"

" Nezuko I want you to fight without worrying about us. We'll be fine without your protection. Since we're demons."

" All right. It's all over for you now!" She threw the ball at me with full speed. That temari will only swerve if I dodge it. Of the tenth forms...the fastest thrusting technique...Total concentration...water breathing! Seventh form, Drop Ripple Thrust-curve! I pierced the ball in the center and pushing threw it. Suddenly it started moving again. Huh? How can that temari move like that? It swerved unnaturally. When it struck Yushiro as well! It's not like it is spinning in any special way, and yet...What is this? I looked back to see Yushiro's head growing back. Ew! That's creepy! I didn't need to see that!

" Lady Tamayo! Didn't I tell you? That we shouldn't get involved with a demon hunter! From the start! My blindfold technique is still a work in progress! I know you are well aware of that yourself! I may be able to conceal the presence of buildings and people, and their scents, but it's not like I can mask their very existence! The greater the numbers, the more traces we leave, and greater the odds that Kibutsuji will discover us!"

Those demons got so close to us, yet their was no presence until they attacked us! That was Yushiro's blood demon art?

" Anyone who ruins the time I spend alone with you..I despise such people! I despise them with a passion! It's unforgivable!" Suddenly the demon took off her black haori, throwing it in the air.
