Tanjirou's POV:

I watched as the blood dripped on the floor. For some reason, it was more tempting than the blood from other people, and there was barely any blood! I was glad I put on my muzzle, cause I could feel myself gnawing at it.

" What's the matter, demon? Come on! You know you want it." No Tanjirou! Don't do it! Even if he is a big jerk! But heck! He looks creepy. Just don't focus on the blood Tanjirou! Get it together! I huffed and dug my nails into my hands to stop myself. I could hear the other people talking, but all I could smell was blood. Why! He laughed while looking at me. That's when I suddenly heard Nezuko cry out it pain. Wait, what? I looked over to see her being squished by a guy with a snake. Suddenly she broke out of her restraints and ran forward, that Sabito guy stopping to one with a Snake.

" Tanjirou!" I looked back at the blood. All humans are my family. Remember that Tanjioru. No matter how mean they are. Protect humans. Humans are to be protected and saved. Never hurt them! I turned my attention out of my thoughts and looked back at the blood. Suddenly I herd Nezuko cough and I snapped out of my demon form. I turned away from him, shocking everyone there, and ran to the direction of Nezuko, only to stop at the edge of the shade. I took off the muzzle and whipped my mouth. Nezuko looked at me in confusion.

" Nezuko-nii." What I said next shocked everyone. " Can I have a hug? This guy hurt himself and it's scaring me. Is he okay?" Nezuko sighed and came up and gave me a hug, which I shrinked to welcome. We turned our attention to the guy with a half purple face.

" What just happened?"

" The demon boy ignored the blood and focused on his hurt sister being alright instead. He instead worried that Wind pillar was not mentally okay. Although he has been stabbed by him three times, and despite his flaunting of his bloody arm in his face, he restrained himself and did not bite."

" So now it's been proven that Tanjirou will not attack humans, right?"

" Nezuko, i'm sure that even after this, there are some who can't accept Tanjirou. You must prove it to them starting now. That you and Tanjiro can fight as Demon Slayers. That you can be useful." Nezuko suddenly flinched and bowed her head the best she can while hugging me.

" Go out and defeat a twelve kizuki. Do that, and you will be accepted by all."

" Yes, Master. I will do my best! Me and Tanjirou! Isn't that right?" I smiled and nodded at her.

" Well, that concludes out business with Nezuko. You may step back." Then the purple lady raised her hand.

" Then, allow me to take the Kamado into my house."

" Eh?"

" Alright! Take them away!" I stepped out of Nezuko's grasp and went back into my box, shrinking to fit. Just then, a girl who was only showing of her eyes came to get me. I turned towards her and she back away a little." I heard running and turned towards it.

" Please excuse me for cutting threw!" He guy then bowed at the two groups, before grabbing Nezuko on his back and running off. I sighed and closed the door to my box, letting myself fall asleep while I was being carried away.


Nezuko's POV:

Right before we turned the corner, the master said something to me.

" Nezuko. Give Lady Tamayo my regards." H-huh.

" Y-Yes!" Does he know know about her?! Oh god...They kept running on a path surrounded by grass.

" Hold up a second! I heard him say Lady Tamayo!" Suddenly the girl punched my face. Ow!
