Stars and Rainbows ~ Demon Slayer fanfic

Chapter 8

Uh so most of the stuff said in this chapter were taken directly from the manga ...

-.-.-<3-.-.-

It was the day Tanjiro was finally coming back from his mission, and Sora was very excited to see him.

Although shes never met him before, her uncle was close with his father. She didn't know until recently, but their ancestors were actually closely related.

"You seem to be excited for him to arrive." Obanai said, watching Sora barely contain herself as she and him sat in the tree. Currently all the Hashira were waiting for him to arrive for the meeting today. This was going to be the first time any of them, besides Giyu and Shinobu, get to see Tanjiro.

"I am! His and my ancestors are pretty closely related, so its basically like seeing my cousin!" Sora smiled, tapping her fingers against her leg impatiently.

On top of all the excitement, there was also nervousness. She didn't know if he was going to be nice, or if he was going to be the biggest dickhead in the world. Like, worst than Sanemi, dickhead. Although Sanemi isn't the worst when you show patience with him.

"Do you think he's almost here?" Sora asked, and Obanai shrugged.

"I could care less." He hissed out. He hadn't even met him yet and he hated him. Sora sighed.

"Oh come on, Iguro. You haven't even met the poor kid. Cut him some slack, would ya?" Sora rolled her eyes, bumping him with her shoulder playfully.

Her and Obanai were pretty close. Although he may not acknowledge or admit it, Sora was the closest with him out of all the Hashira. Besides Mitsuri and Sanemi of course. It did take a while for her to befriend him though, as he wasn't very fond of women. She kept insisting she, Obanai, and Mitsuri went out for lunch or trained together all the time when she first arrived.

Sora just had to befriend all of the quieter or "unique" ones first. Thats always how shes been. Though, all of the Hashira could be considered "unique", but thats why she loves all of them so much. They truly are, her second family.

"Oh he's here! And he's unconscious on the floor.." Sora sighed, taking a good look at the boy laying on the gravel.

'His earrings! Ive seen those in pictures of my uncle with some guy. I never knew who he was, but those are the same exact earrings!'

"Sun breathing. Those earrings were worn by the first person to use breaths." Ryo whispered, forgetting Sora could hear him.

'Sun breathing! I knew they looked familiar! Rainbow breaths is basically the same thing as sun breaths, just less forms and the "fire" is actually rainbow light. Is that correct, Ryo?'

"Right. You should pay attention, he's waking up."

Ryo was right, and no longer than 5 seconds passed and his eyes were open and staring at the Hashira in front of him.

"This is the demon slayer headquarters, and you Tanjiro Kamado, are to be put on trial." Shinobu said with a smile, and Tanjiros eyes widened.

"There is no need for a trial! Protecting a demon clearly goes against the corps rules! Lets just cut off him and his sisters head!" Rengoku said with a proud smile, and Sora sighed. She knew that Tanjiro was going to be kept alive due to masters order, but she was still upset.

"Ill cut his head off with style! Even the blood splashes will have panache! Really flashy-flash!" Tengen said, and Mitsuri squeaked. Sora could tell she didn't like the idea of killing him.

"What pitiful children. How sad. Its a tragedy they were even born!" Gyomei cried, holding his prayer beads to his face. Muichiro didn't say anything, just stared up at the clouds, probably thinking about lunch or something.

The Hashira all agreed on killing him, but Tanjiro ignored them. He looked around frantically, looking in every direction for something. Sora eyed him with wonder, wanting to know what he was looking for.

"Forget about him. What are we going to do about Tomioka?" Obanai said, bringing the attention of Tanjiro and the rest of the Hashira to the two of them in the tree. Sora glared at Obanai, before he continued. "Kocho said he broke corps rules too. What shall we do about this? How shall he take responsibility? What price shall he pay? Right now he's just wandering around freely, and that gives me a headache."

'Oh lord. I was up here so i wasn't going to get noticed or looked at. My hair looks bad today!' Sora thought, shaking her head.

Giyu was just standing off to the side, not bothering anyone.

"We needn't worry about him. He came along without a fight. I'm more interested in questioning the boy. We can consider a suitable punishment later." Shinobu said, still looking at Tanjiro.

'This is actually a lot less interesting than i thought. Lets see, what is Tokito looking at?' Sora thought, now looking through the branches and at the clouds as well.

Sora was pulled out of her thoughts when she smelt blood of a demon. She looked over to see Sanemi pulling his blade out of a box that had a strong smell of a demon. The box had blood dripping from the corner of it, and sora sighed.

"I DON'T CARE IF YOU'RE A HASHIRA OR WHATEVER! I WONT LET ANYONE HURT MY SISTER!" Tanjiro screamed, and Sanemi chuckled.

"HAHAH OH NO? GOOD!" Sanemi shouted, and Tanjiro ran up to Sanemi. Giyu tried telling them to stop, but Tanjiro kept running. Sanemi swung his sword, but Tanjiro jumped up, head butting Sanemi on the forehead.

Both Sora and Mitsuri laughed, but Sora quickly covered her laughs after getting a look from Obanai. Everyone looked at Mitsuri with a dumb found look, and Mitsuri apologized.

Tanjiro got in front of the box, guarding it from Sanemi.

"IF YOU CANT TELL THE DIFFERENCE BETWEEN A GOOD DEMON AND A BAD DEMON, THEN YOU DON'T DESERVE TO BE A HASHIRA!" Tanjiro shouted, and a vein popped out on Sanemis forehead.

"Why you.. YOU'RE DEAD!" Sanemi started, before getting cut off.

"The master of the mansion has arrived."
