Rise Of A King

Fellow Demon

Third Person POV:

After a month of staying in the house the friend group was finally comfortable. Although Tanjiro slept quite a lot now.

Giyuu wouldn't leave his side when he slept. Which reassured Nezuko that nothing bad would happen to Tanjiro.

Zenitsu and Nezuko have been getting rather close. Like Zenitsu will let her mess with his hair or they would go buy food from town, just the two of them.

Inosuke has been hunting down the stray demon in the forest. He always gloats about how many he kills when he comes back.

Although one night a man approached the house, his face was covered. Nezuko noticed him first she stood up and watched making sure this man was no threat.

Inosuke sensed the man.. he was a demon.

Inosuke charged but after fighting the demon for awhile the demon hood fell revealing a very beaten up Yushiro.

Nezuko's POV:

I recognized the face from my demon memories! It was the boy that helped Tamayo. "Inosuke stop!" I screamed getting between him and the boy.

"Neboko! That is a demon!" Inosuke protested, "what if he hurts Tanjiro?!"

The boys face looked shocked, I'm guessing he didn't know Tanjiro was alive- sort of.

"Yushiro-San?" I asked placing a hand on his cheek as he nodded. I smiled at him, "come inside!"

I lead Yushiro inside and placed some bedding out for him. We both look at Tanjiro sleeping peacefully.

"I thought they would have killed him.." Yushiro admitted. (When he says "they" he means demon Slayers)

"They we're going to.." I say placing a piece of Tanjiro's misplaced hair in place, "but Onii-Chan came back to his senses.."

"How long does he usually sleep?" Yushiro asked.

"This is only the third day of him in this slumber," I say.

"How have you been?" he asked me.

"Alright- Well as alright as I can be with our current situation," I respond.

"I'm so sorry this happened Nezuko-" Yushiro began.

"Don't apologize! If this Didn't happen Nii-Chan would be dead!" I slightly shout. Zenitsu came over to me and hugged me tightly. I calm down I bit, "I'm sorry for shouting Yushiro-San."

"It's alright Nezuko-San I understand that it has been hard on you," Yushiro said with a understanding tone.

I look back at Zenitsu before saying, "while you wait for Onii-Chan to wake you may stay in the house."

Tanjiro slept for around 2 more days before waking. Tomioka-San came to get me once Onii-Chan woke.

I hugged him before telling him, "oh! By the way Nii-Chan you have a visitor."

I signal for Yushiro to come greet Nii-Chan.

Tanjiro's POV:

Nezuko signaled for someone to come to me. I look at the person, I see such a familiar face. "Hi Tanjiro-"

"Yushiro-San!" I say getting up. "Nice to see you again,"

"Same to you Tanjiro." He says smiling.

(I'm sorry this is late)
