The demon's eyes widen in surprise as it's head falls to the ground 'Dammit, Dammit! This mere human defeated me!? This is really my end! Damn humans!' the demon thinks in utter annoyance, gritting it's teeth as the last of it's head disappears into nothingness.

You turn to Nezuko who holds the same blank look you do, "Are you alright, Nezuko?" you ask and the cute demon 'Hmm's and hugs you, leaving you slightly shocked before hugging back slightly.

3RD POV

Not long after, Tanjiro bursts through the same puddle he went in through. He looks over to you both, "Are you both okay?" he asks worriedly and you just nod "Hmm.." Nezuko hums sleepily making you internally smile.

You glance over to Kazumi where he has placed the woman down and is now on his knees, a distraught look on his face. You look down at Tanjiro and see him placing Nezuko inside the box, before also glancing over to Kazumi and the woman.

Tanjiro puts the box on his back, staring at Kazumi for a short while before turning and walking towards him, you following closely behind.

"Kazumi-san" He says and crouches in front of Kazumi, you staying standing, a blank yet cold look on your face. "Are you alright?" He asks in worry, and Kazumi looks at him with an unreadable emotion "I've just lost my fiancé" he says as tears brim at the edge of his eyes, he looks down, the tears streaming like endless waterfalls down his face "How can I be alright?" he questions.

Tanjiro looks at him with worry and your expression softens ever so slightly, "Kazumi-san.." Kazumi looks back up at him "You may lose people again and again, but you just have to go on living" his words make you scrunch up your eyebrows and look down, a memory of a certain someone playing in your mind.

'Shoto may not remember you, but I do.. and I always will'

FLASHBACK

"Touya nii-san!" You yell as your little feet paddle towards your elder brother, a sheet of paper in your small and frail fingers.

Said male turns to look at you "What is it, Y/N?" you smile up at him "Look I made a drawing of the whole family!" you say and hand him up a drawing made by you.

He looks down at the photo, on it having you and him holding hands, and Fuyumi, Natsuo, and Shoto playing happily together, with your mum on a bench watching you all. Touya stifles a laugh noticing how a certain flame hero isn't included in the photo.

Everyone in the family knew, ever since Enji had started training you and Shoto, not once have you called him your father, or referred to him as family.

"It's a lovely photo, Y/N" he smiles down at you, and you look at him with happiness gleaming in your eyes, something that is long lost now. "When I grow up, I want to be as cool as you, Touya nii-san" you mumble and hug your elder brother.

"I'm sure you do" he smiles at your now asleep figure and brings you to your room, glancing at you sadly.

'I'm so sorry, Y/N. I want to bring you, I really do... but, I can't take you with me right now... wait for me, okay?'

FLASHBACK OVER

Unknowingly, a tear slid down your cheek, luckily going unnoticed by the two males, 'I really do miss you, Touya nii-san' you think and quickly wipe your cheek and fan your cheeks, trying to ease any redness.

After Kazumi had done yelling at Tanjiro, you both had walked away, with Kazumi shouting 'sorry's and 'I didn't know's to you.

The sun had now risen, and you both were walking on a street towards the exit of the village, Tanjiro deep in thought, and you just looking blankly ahead.

'It's not just me' Tanjiro thinks in anger 'How many people have you killed, tortured, and tormented..' Tanjiro clutches the bottom of his haori tightly. 'Muzan Kibutsuji, I'll never forgive you!' he clutches his fist in anger and pauses, making you follow suit.

"Are you alright, Tanjiro?" You ask, breaking him out of his thoughts. Just as he goes to answer your crows come and land on their respective shoulders, "Next up, Asakusa Tokyo!" Tanjiro's crow yells in pride, basically radiating light making you sweat-drop.

'What a weird bird..' you think and make a face ' :| '. "Rumors of a demon lurking there!" you deadpan 'I mean, duh.. we're demon slayers, obviously there'll be a demon there...' you sigh.

Tanjiro starts sweating and a weird expression comes on his face "I'm heading to my next mission already?" he asks.

You zone out as the pair argue for a bit longer, before Tanjiro finally gives in and you make your way to the next destination, a city, you actually remember being to before (idk if it exists in the MHA universe, but whateva).

You vaguely remember going here after stealing Enji's card, dragging your friends along with you, spending as much money as you possibly could. You smile slightly at the memory as you gaze at the tall buildings 'It's weird seeing it like this, so traditional..' you put on your cold glare as you enter the city.

As you stand in front of a building you peer over at Tanjiro, having to stifle a laugh at his expression. His face looking traumatized, like he's never seen the outside world before.

'Are the cities this advanced now? It's nighttime, but it's so bright out! And Y/N mentioned she was from the future, if its this advanced now, I could only imagine how it looks in the future!' Your mouth starts to wiggle slightly at his expression and you turn your gaze to Nezuko, who seems to be falling asleep on the spot.

'If he's getting this worked up about this kind of city, just imagine if he saw Musutafu city' you place a hand over your mouth to suppress you giggles, taking a few deep breaths before turning on your cold glare.

You walk through the street with Nezuko falling asleep, Tanjiro looking overwhelmed, and you with a cold façade. 'The buildings are so tall!' he looks over at all the buildings 'The cities... The cities..' he repeats.

Tanjiro stops and gasps slightly as a tram makes it's way past you on the rails, before putting his scarf over his head 'I feel dizzy'. Nezuko whines slightly as you quickly walk over the track, stopping in front of an alley "Let's go that way" he points to the alley ahead.

You widen your eyes, clearly seeing what's going on in there "Uh, Tanjiro let's go som-" before you can finish you're dragged into the alley, Tanjiro gasps and turns bright red, and you sigh in discomfort "I-I beg your pardon!" he stutters before you all run off.

As you run through the crowd, Tanjiro breathes heavily, obviously uncomfortable. Luckily, you soon come a cross a small Udon shop with a small bench out the front, you breath a sigh of relief, feeling your stomach grumble.

"Excuse me.." Tanjiro calls out, with a very odd face and you a cold glare. "A bowl of yamakake udon please" he asks and you nod "same here" you say in a monotone voice, making the shop owner slightly shiver under your stare.

"Uh, sure thing!"
