Tanjiro's POV

There's a Twelve Kizuki in this forest, I have to be careful and not get too careless, I must get its blood.

'Ah! I have to find Inosuke.' I thought and sniffed the air, when I got his scent I went towards it.

When I found him, he was just standing there, leaning beside a tree.

I let out a sigh of relief.

He points at me, "Did you defeat the demon?!"

"Yes... I did..." I said. "But are you okay? You're bleeding."

"I'm fine! I'm the king of the mountains!"

"Come on, let's get that hand bandaged," I told him as I grabbed his hand and started to badge it.

'That demon I just killed gave off a scent of suffering and pain. enough for her to hope for death... What's with this mountain anyway? A demon family? I thought demons never banded together...' I thought as Inosuke struggled to get out of his bandage.


At a random part of the forest...

Zenitsu's POV

"Ouch! I was bitten by something! What the hell bit me?! This really getting on my nerves!" I shouted in pain and frustration.

This really sucks! Where did they go off to?! Why are they all like this! I sometimes really can't stand those three! This place smells so terrible that I want to vomit, Tanjiro must hate it right now. There are also a lot of tiny spiders crawling all over the place! It's making my skin crawl! The spiders keep making annoying noises.

"Seriously, why are you all so loud! Be quiet!" I shouted while pointing at a thing that I noticed in the corner of my eyes.

I froze for a bit and slowly put down my finger.

The thing is a giant spider with a human head on it!

It stared at me with its eyes filled with emptiness.

As I registered all the information in my head I yelled in disgust and fear.

"What the hell am I even looking at?! What is this?! Why does that spider have a human face?! It's so weird and creepy! Please be a dream! Please be a dream! Please let me wake up from this nightmare!" I shouted as I ran away from the human face spider in a random direction.

I stopped and cover my eyes, trying to convince myself that everything was a dream. "Nothing is real!" I muttered as I slowly uncovered my eyes and looked up.

I just stood in one place from shock and terror. "What are those!? Are the demons turning humans into spiders?! A house is floating in midair?! I think I saw something catching the light... Are they threads?' I thought as I franticly tried to get my legs to move.

Suddenly a figure came out of the house.

I shouted in extreme fear when I saw that the figure was a massive spider with a human face! It stared right at me grinning while hanging upside down from the house.

'It's huge! Look at the size of that thing! It's absolutely gigantic!' I thought as the spider slowly descended.

"You better not start talking to me! I don't wanna hear it from you!" I shouted as I ran away as fast as I could.

"Hahahahahahahaha! Running is useless you know... You have already lost." It said.

"I told you to not talk to me! I don't wanna hear it so stop talking! Things like you give me the creeps alright!?" I shouted as I ran as fast as I could.
