(Tanjiro's POV)

I yell, 'Inosuke, lets go now! Lead the way!'

He replies, 'Alright, Monjiro! Time to hunt some demons'

Tick marks appear on my head, 'It's Tanjiro!' I quickly follow his lead and he suddenly stop. I look infront of him and widen my eyes. I saw a girl killing demon hunters. She had the same uniform as us.

She warns us in tears, 'You can't... Don't come near me... Hurry up and get a higher ranking person to come here! If you don't, I'm going to end up killing everybody! Please... I beg you!'

At a random part of the forest near Tanjiro...

The spider mother demon says, 'Ufufufu. The closer you get to me, the larger the threads will become and the stronger they will be. My dolls will also become stronger.'

Suddenly a demon appear behind her, 'Mother, can we win? Will this take too long and take up too much time? If you don't hurry, I will tell father...'

She started to sweat and yells in fear, 'Rui, everything is fine! Mother can do it! I will definitely protect you! Don't tell father! Don't tell father...'

He starts to walk away from he while saying, 'Hurry and finish the demon hunters...' When he is gone, she calm down for a bit and veins starting to pop out from her face.

She yells, 'Uuuurgh! Die! Die! All of you or else I'm going to end up as...!' while increase her webs strength.

Back to Tanjiro...

The girl yells, 'Run! Don't come near me!' She swings her sword toward me very fast. I jumped back to avoid her attack.

He yell while in pain and tiredness, 'I'm being controlled so my movements are completely different! We are not that strong!' Suddenly her arms are twisted into a very painful position. Her arms was twist broken.

She yells in pain while saying, 'Please make this stop! It's so painful! I don't want to die!'

I started getting worry about her well being, 'The demon's threads are forcing drastic actions upon the body... It doesn't matter to the demon even if the bones break... This is too cruel.' while dodging all her swings. Suddenly I notice two demon hunters behind me. I widen my eyes in shock when I see them in a very injured state.

They say with tiredness, 'Ki... Kill us... The bones within our arms and legs are all broken... Our internal organs... are broken... and damaged... We are being forced to move... This pain... We'd rather die... no matter what option we take... the result... is death. Save... is... Stop this... finish us!' I look at them with hesitation.

Suddenly Inosuke yells, 'Okay, I got it!'

I yell at him, 'Wait! Don't kill them! We have to save them! If they die, their family will be sad and devastated!'

He replies, 'Shut your mouth! They said themselves, they want to die. I'm just doing a favour for them.' while invading their attacks.

I yell at Inosuke, 'Every lives are precious Inosuke! I know how precious life is. You had no right to take it nor take your own! These people are innocent. They are force to do these actions! Please just let them live!'

He looks at me and sigh, 'Alright Tanjiro! You said it yourself, I won't take lives so easily but if any of these demon hunters intentionally hurt us I will end them. Got it!' while dodging their attack.

I nodded and jump backward to avoid a slash. I turn around and saw the same girl that warned us. He is in pain. I see tears coming out from her eyes.

She says, 'Please... help me...' I clench my fists in anger. How dare the demon make her suffer in torturous pain! I take in a deep breath and hold her hands. I disarm her and throw her up to a tree. She widens her eyes when her withness my strength. She fall through the tree and the wires are tangled on the tree's branch. Alright, the threads are tangled! Now I have to... I take in another deep breath and leap up toward her. I draw my blade and cut the threads. She fall down and I carry her in a bridal style.

I landed onto the ground and I say, 'Are you alright? Does your whole body hurt?'

She looks at me and starts to cry in relieve, 'Thank you... very much...' I smile at her and reassure her everything is gonna be alright.

I shout at Inosuke, 'Inosuke! Throw the two demon hunters up to the trees! They will tangled their threads!'

He replies, 'Alright! Lemme try it! Okay, up you go!' He throw the demons hunter up toward the trees and they tangled their threads.

He turns toward me and boasted, 'See! I can throw two of them at the same time! I am better than you!'

I look at him and say, 'Hai hai you are the best. Lets just get them to a safe place.'

I look at the girl on my arms and say, 'Don't worry, we will get you out of this place. Just hang in there.' with a gentle and warm smile on my face. She widens her eyes at my expression and smile with a thin blush on her face. She feels very safe around me and able to rely on me. She nodded and slowly drifted to sleep. She is very tired.

I turn to Inosuke and say, 'Be quiet a bit. She's asleep. Can you help me to get those two down from the trees and put them at a safe place.' while making a slient gesture.

He looked at me and nodded. He lept up to the tree and cut the threads. They fall onto the ground and went unconcious. He carry them on his back and followed me.

(Spider Demon Mother'sPOV)

She says in anger, 'In that case, I'll have to kill that doll...! They won't escape alive from me that easily. I don't want to get torture by my "family" again!' I clench my hand into a fist and the threads suddenly straighten.
