The ball ringed as the female demon caught it. "I wonder how we should kill them?" She laughed, "I can feel the power. I can feel the blood he gave me coursing through my veins."

"And of course, we're going to be ruthless when we kill them." The male demon laughed.

A sudden rip was felt by Yushiro as the paper talisman placed above the front porch broke. The red piece of paper floated down to the ground before vanishing in red smoke.

"Get down!" He ordered, rushing to cover Tamayo. Tanjiro did the same to Nezuko as two tamari balls flew through the walls, destroying anything that got in their way.

As the tamari flew back to their owner, two demons laughed.

"Did you decide how we'll kill them?" The male demon asked.

"Ruthlessly!" The female demon shouted as she threw her tamari toward the broken house, "Hah! Hah!"

The temari flew, and the demons laughed.

"Turns out you were right Yahaba. This building just materialized out of nowhere!" The female demon laughed as the temari balls came back.

"Huh." The male demon muttered, "The handiwork of someone using a blood demon art to hide objects... What is this?" Yahaba asked, "We're tracking down a demon slayer. Is he with demons?"

Susamaru laughed, "Isn't this fun?" The two temari ringed on the ground as they bounced.

Yahaba sighed, "I have to say, Susamaru, your way of doing things is just so immature. Utterly careless. You splattered me. My kimono is covered with dust!"

"Oh, stop whining. Who cares about dust? My temari just uncovered their hiding place. And now the real fun begins!" The temaris flew, punching holes in the already broken walls of the house. They rang as they flew back to their owner.

Yahaba growled, "Stop splattering me!"

"Stop being so uptight. Your kimono looks just fine to me. And look." The smoke cleared as she laughed, "Come out. come out, wherever you are."

'A temari?' Tanjiro thought, 'Throwing a temari caused all this damage?'

'That woman, did Kibutsuji send here?' Yushiro thought.

Susamaru threw here two temari balls, as they flew through the air, they curved and changed directions, zig-zagging in the air. Tanjiro grunted as the temari flew through the house.

A temari changed direction and flew. "Lady Tamayo!" Yushiro shouted, getting ready to break the temari ball, but it changed course again, Yushiro stared as it crashed into his head.

"Yushiro!" Tanjiro screamed.

"Damn it." He turned to Nezuko, "Nezuko, the lady sleeping in the backroom, take her outside, and get her to safety!"

Nezuko grunted and nodded her head.

"It's too dangerous!" Tamayo shouted, "We have a basement! Take her there!"

"Good idea," Tanjiro said. "Nezuko."

"Nezuko grunted, and ran off. Tanjiro pointed his blade at the demon.

The temari demon laughed again, "One down, three to go."

'Her scent is different than any other demon I've ever met.' Tanjiro thought, 'It's stronger or thicker. It feels heavy inside my lungs.'

The temari flew back to the demon, ringing as they bounced on the ground. "Hmm. There's a demon slayer who wears hanafuda earrings. That would be you, right?"
