"😄hello, can I have some pork ramen with extra grated yam"
"Ah sure thing kid"
"Arigato"

Outside sitting on a bench is tanjiro happily and peacefully eating his pork ramen while practically beaming. He's been waiting for a new mission for quite a while now so he'd thought why not take a break and eat?

TANJIRO POV

'Man this is good! Might even order another bowl of ramen.I am on an empty stomach so why not?' All of a sudden I catch a sweet smell of a human. It smells of medicine and wisteria but also anger and sadness. What's up with that? I sniff again and notice that the smell is right next to me. Wait what

"Ara ara seems like our slayer of brightness is enjoying his ramen hehehe" I look to my left and I see a pretty woman with large purple eyes with no pupil, with purple tipped hair tied into a bun with a butterfly pin, and a butterfly haori. Also

WHY IS SHE SO CLOSE TO ME?! I COULD FEEL HER BREATHING! A blush appeared on my face due to how close she is. Also what does she mean by 'our slayer of brightness'?

A couple of hours ago

SHINOBU POV

I was in the haru village shopping for herbs to use in my medicines and poisons until I sensed a demon nearby. I dropped everything, unsheathed my sword, and ran to the demon(in a blur). When I got closer I sensed another demon slayer near, a powerful one at that, where the demon was. 'The demon seems to be powerful. Is it a lower moon?'

When I got there I saw a demon slayer fighting another demon with bony like swords coming out of her arms and vines surrounding her, trying to hit the demon slayer. 'Hmm there are no kanji's on the demons eyes so it's not a lower moon.'

'Wait a minute. Red eyes, red long hair tied into a pony tail, a red flame mark on his forehead, wearing a kitsune mask. That's the new slayer of brightness! Kanao and the other survivors of the final selection spoke highly of him. They still don't know his breath style though-'

Her thoughts were interrupted though when she heard the slayer of brightness, who she remembered is named tanjiro kamado, shout something

"*** ********* 3rd form scorching crimson mirror"

She saw him perform a form so beautiful it looked as if it was a dance. She couldn't hear what it was since she was a bit too far away but wow was it beautiful. Looks like the other survivors weren't exaggerating when they said it was beautiful. It wasn't flame breathing though, it looked too different, and this breathing technique the boy is using seems more powerful as well.

3RD PERSON VIEW

Shinobu, awestruck, just sat there watching the fight. Seeing that the slayer of brightness was overpowering the demon girl she relaxed a bit and watched. She just sat there and watched in aww as the slayer of brightness would perform his mystery breathing forms, wondering how the other hashiras would react this mystery breath style. She could already imagine what they would do and say.

She saw as tanjiro somehow disappeared, struck at the demon, miss but actually hit and cut her neck off. 'woah'

But then she saw something unexpected. She saw the slayer of brightness.....comfort the demon. What the? Why would he do that to a demon? Is he just like kanea? Does he feel pity for demons? Why? Demons are nothing but lying, murdering monsters! She went closer to investigate.

He said something about how, on her scent, he could tell that she didn't deserve what she went through. Wait scent? Then she saw something that absolutely shocked her
