                           ~Third person POV.~
Hoshi was so distracted he failed to notice a tall male with long black hair in uneven lengths, tied back into a low ponytail running at a fast speed towards the girl and the boy laying on the cold snow. The new male was wearing a mis-matched haori, half being a light maroon colour and the other half being a hexagon pattern with yellow and two different shades of green. Hoshi finally acknowledged the man when he sent of a strong wave of snow as he slashed his sword down. Hoshi was stunned. 'Such strength, who is this person?' Hoshi wondered.

When the mini snow blizzard cleared up the demon girl was being protectively held by the burgundy haired boy that had the hatchet. Hoshi could only stare. Had this man tried to kill the girl? Is this man.. a demon slayer. Hoshi's shock turned into fear. It wasn't the fact that the girl was probably a demon that scared him, it was the male who weald the sword. He had this expression on his face that terrified Hoshi. Hoshi thought this male would try to kill him after he was done with the girl.  "Why are you protecting it?" The black haired male asked monotonously. He stood with his sword out facing the two that had hit a tree when they were hit. Hoshi didn't even know how to react, so he hid behind a tree.

He could only see the black haired males back but he could tell he had that scary expression on his face. It's not that Hoshi was scared easily, it's just he didn't know much about other people. Some emotions didn't really make sense to him. For example he was oblivious to things such as love, but that's that's besides the point. "She's my sister!" The burgundy haired boy answered back holding his sister tightly. 'SISTER!?' Hoshi screamed in his head. 'But she's a demon!' He held a shocked and confused expression and widened his eyes from behind the tree. He peeked over to see the back of the black haired man and a bit of the siblings behind him. "I was taking her to get help!!" The burgundy haired boy continued while his sister started to growl  from in his grasp. Hoshi just continued to peek from behind the big tree he was hiding behind, listening until pain hit him like a brick wall. His foot was radiating pain. It felt like it was being squeezed into a flat object. Hoshi then fell down and hid back behind the tree as he held his foot close by. He knew his foot wasn't broken, since he could still move it, but he wasn't an expert so he couldn't be sure. He then zoned out on what was happening around him only focusing on trying not to cry from his foot. The pain was pulsating and awful. When it died down a bit he looked back to the siblings and the man with the sword only to see both siblings unconscious
and laying beside each other on the snow. The black haired male went over to the demon girl and put what looked like a bamboo muzzle in her mouth. Hoshi's breath hitched. Was this man dangerous? 'Is he going to knock me out too?! Is he going to kill those two then finish me off?! Is he-' Hoshi's train of thought was cut off by the black haired male speaking. "You there." The black haired male turned to face the tree Hoshi was hiding behind. "Come out, I'm not going to hurt you." Hoshi was confused. Did he know he was there the whole time? Hoshi hesitantly came out from behind the tree, limping visibly. "Come closer." The black haired male said. Hoshi slowly limped over keeping his head down clutching the end of his haori. Once he was standing in front of the male, he looked a lot taller and it kind of intimidated Hoshi. "Sit." The black haired male said as he gestured to a sliced log. Hoshi was confused as to why he wanted him to sit but complied anyway.

As soon as Hoshi sat down the black haired male knelt down and slowly slipped off his left zori sandal. "Giyu Tomioka." The black haired male said as he continued to roll up Hoshi's left gyaru sock and hakama pant leg. "E-eh?" Hoshi stuttered. He wasn't sure how to answer. "My name. What's yours kid?" Giyu said. "U-uh Hoshi Kyodojo sir!!" Hoshi squeaked. It was silent for a while as Giyu gently slipped off his tabi sock and started to move each of Hoshi's toes up and down. Hoshi winced at the pain that shot through this foot when he did. "Sorry if it hurts." Giyu muttered as he felt around the foot. "It looks like a severe sprain.. try not to do much activity on it for a few days." Giyu concluded as he put back on Hoshi's tabi and rolled down his hakama and gyaru sock. Giyu slipped back on Hoshi's zori as he got up and went to lean back on a tree facing the siblings.
