Tanjiro sighed and turned, to the the now calm Tomioka.

"Don't do that again." Tanjiro stared Tomioka dead in the eye.

"You know, for a demon, you're caring." Tomioka smiled sligthly, catching Tanjiro off gaurd. Tomioka used this and started running inside.

"Oh. OH. TOMIOKA GIYUU GET BACK HERE RIGHT NOW!" Tanjiro yelled, chasing after him. Tomioka raced into the dining hall, earning shocked stares from Zenitsu, Inosuke & Nezuko. Tomioka smirked and stopped, making Tanjiro bump into him and fall down on the floor.

"Ow! You motherfuck-" Tomioka knelt to Tanjiro's level and kissed him on the chin, stunning him and making Nezuko squeal.

"You two dating or what?" Inosuke said, for once calm.

"I- TOMIOKA!" Tanjiro yelled, getting up and slapping him. Tomioka groaned sligthly. Suddenly, a window showing the outside shattered. In came Douma.

"...Douma?" Tanjiro whispered, hiding behind Tomioka who had moved so he was shielding Tanjiro.

"Sorry-" Douma attacked Tanjiro as soon as he came in. Tomioka blocked the attack and fought back, Tanjiro at his side. They were powerful, and Tanjiro wasn't even in his full demon form. It was like they could read eachother's minds. Perfectly in sync with attacks and almost unable to make mistakes. They drove Douma back in a bloody fight, before Douma fled.

"What the hell?" Nezuko asked.

"War's coming, Nezuko." Tanjiro said, shocking the people behind them.

"That was Douma, upper moon 2, right?" Tomioka asked.

"Yup."

-------

"Fucking hell! This is bad, this is bad!" Tanjiro was panicking, sitting in Tomioka's lap.

"Love.. we fought earlier, but you've never shown your real demon form. It would be easier if we could train, human and full demon." Tanjiro sighed in defeat.

"Fine, I'll show you." Tanjiro stood up and walked to the center of the room. His skin became white, and I mean really white, his hair became a darker shade of red-pinkish and his eyes just became full black. His nails grew longer, almost as long and sharp as a knife. His tongue grew and split in two and his ears became pointy. His fangs grew longer and his hair became longer too. He hissed slightly before crouching down, two small and black tails emerging from his back. Then he stood up again and smiled at the shocked Tomika.

"I haven't done this in ages." Tanjiro said, stretching as he had grown taller. His voice sounded more demonic, it had become deeper.

"Okay. What exactly can you do?"

"My tails are immune to sunlight. I can create new tails, so I can create a cover with them so we can train during the day. That's the basics." Tanjiro explained.

"Okay, Let's go train. Make an arena thing." And then they were off to outside. Some people were spying on them and decided to follow them.

-----

"Okay, fight me then. I'm the bad guy." Tanjiro stared Tomioka dead in the eyed. Tomioka attacked him, of course, and Tanjiro blocked him. Tanjiro smirked and attacked. After a while there were a whole crowd watching the two. Tanjiro decided to see what Tomioka would do if he used a tentacle attack, because he hadn't talked to Tomioka about it. They would just hit him, not actually injure him. Tanjiro jumped high into the air and sent tentacles flowing from his back and two aiming to hit Tomioka underneath. Tomioka smirked and launched himself into the air, reaching Tanjiro's level.

"Huh. Smarter than I thought." Tanjiro chuckled, falling to the ground just as Tomioka swung his sword.

"That's enough, I'm tired." Tanjiro whined.

"You get tired?"

"I might recover a bit by sleeping." Tanjiro sighed and walked to the crowd.

"Who are you, though?" Zenitsu asked, sounding scared.

"Zenitsu you're actually stupid." Tanjiro sighed and laughed.

"We're coming, Tanjiro~ Tommorow's the big day~"

"Fucking hell!" Tanjiro exclaimed.

"Oh hell no. Not yet. We haven't trained enough!" Nezuko pushed through the crowd, as Tomioka walked up to Tanjiro.

"I know, It's tommorow everyone! Demons can read minds, sometimes." Nezuko yelled, shielding the panicking Tanjiro who was being calmed down by Tomioka from Kanao.

"Kanao, move. He doesn't like you and you know it. He's not even your friend - look at them. That's friendship." Nezuko hissed to the girl who ran off crying, agian.
