Year 1452
" Tsugikuni-kun?"
Yoriichi paused in his steps, looking over his shoulders to look at his old comrade of the corps. Rengoku offered a smile as he handed the man a bento.
" My wife made it for you after hearing what happened." His smile looked more sympathetic rather than his usual cheery one." Look, I don't care what the others said...the corps is suffering a great loss the moment they kicked you away."
" My brother turned into a demon and I failed to slay Kibutsuji Muzan," Yoriichi said, no emotions in his voice nor face, " Ubuyashiki-sama showed me a big mercy for not stating an order of me to be killed...."
Rengoku sighed." I am sorry for what happened. What are you going to do now?"
" I am planning on visiting a friend of mine." Yoriichi simply answered.
Rengoku nodded, not wanting to bother him longer. He gave the bento to Yoriichi, saying thank you for his work in the Demon Slayer corps (sksk sorry a typo before ) before turning around to leave.
"...Rengoku-kun." Yoriichi called.
" Hmm?"
" Walk to your right more, you were about to trample on someone's memorial."
The blond-haired man looked down and saw an old looking doll resting on a piece of rock with wilted flowers surrounding it. He felt cold shivers running down his spine and looked away, suddenly felt uncomfortable with the temperature dropping.
" Ah, I apologize. Thank you, Tsugikuni-kun." Rengoku nodded at his friend. This time, his pace quickening, feelin the urge to leave quickly.
Yoriichi watched his friend leaving before turning to the entities standing beside the memorial. One was a girl with torn arms, hugging a woman with fox ears and tail. A kitsune.
" My friend didn't mean to disrespect you," Yoriichi bowed slightly at the girl," I hope you can rest well now." He took a glance at the kitsune, wondering why the yokai was with a spirit. Though, he knew very well not to mess with the yokai so he decided not to let curiousity win over him.
The kitsune nodded and took the girl's hand in hers, leading her away. The dead girl looked over her shoulders at Yoriichi.
A sudden idea struck the swordman.
" Wait." Yoriichi said." If... it's not troubling too much, can you..." He faltered, rethinking about what he was going to do.
The kitsune and the dead girl stared at him, waiting.
