I have been walking for hours now, all I was given was to head to a village, IT DID NOT SAY HOW FAR.

I left my house since my parents never really cared about me, everything was about my older brother, him this and him that. To be honest, I don't even think they care that I left.

Finding a young boy named Tanjiro Kamado is a strange mission, normally its always demons.

But the Corp wants me to be part of a group.

Anyhow, here I am, Walking... and walking...

"Wait.. that's the village!" I jump up and down. My legs are not sore, but I am starving, I have not eaten in days.

I walk into the village, the place seems lively, tons of people, chatting and doing there normal things. I stop by a little shop and buy some bread, I don't have a lot of money, so I just have enough to by some bread.

While eating, I look around the village, and suddenly I hear "AHHHH, INOSUKE LEAVE ME ALONE". "GET BACK HERE MONICHI". I hear 2 people yelling like total maniacs.

"Um" I said while finishing the bread. Shortly after I see 2 people run by, one with orange/yellow hair, and one with a.... boar head?... yeah I have no idea either.

"Demon Slayers?" I mumble. "EEK" I jumped when I felt someone cling into me for dear life. "PLEASEE SAVE MEEE" It was the same boy with yellow hair.

"ALSO MARRY ME" he yelled.

I stood there, frozen.

Wait... where did the boar head boy go?, as if on cue, a boy with redish hair and green haori walked up to us, pulling the boar head with ease.

"I-". "Zenitsu get off her!" The boy yelled, yanking the boy off of me, holding both of em by their collars.

"I am so so sorry" he bowed. "No no, its alright, don't worry" I bowed back, "Also um... are you Tanjiro Kamado?".

He stoop up right and nodded, "That's me, I was told someone would be looking for me, It is you?".

"Yep!, Y/n l/n!" I smile. "Nice to meet you" he smiled back.

"Oh and this is Zenitsu and Inosuke" he said. I nodded.

"TANJIRO LEMME GOOO" Zenistu yelled.

"Okay okay! as long as you do not cling onto Y/n again?" Tanjiro replied. Zenitsu frowned "FINE", with that Tanjiro dropped Zenistu.

Zenistu stood up.

"TONTARO, LET ME GO" I jumped when Inosuke screamed out of nowhere. "MY NAME IS TANJIRO".

"I ALREADY TOLD YOU, I CANNOT SAY NAMES RIGHT!" Inosuke said and Tanjiro dropped Inosuke.

"I NEED FOOD,". "Inosuke, we are gonna go into the Butterfly In, or did you forget?" Zenitsu glared at the boar head,

The boar head groaned before walking off, Zenitsu following.

"You coming?, Y/n?" Tanjiro said. I nodded before following the 3.

I gotta admit, they seems nice... ehem except Inosuke, who thought he would be like baku- I mean.... NEVER MIND.

Anyhow, Tanjiro seems the kindest out of all. Zenitsu.... the most scared of everything, Inosuke, um... no idea how to describe him.

Night time was falling, and I hear sounds from inside the box, Now Zenitsu and Inosuke were far in front of us, leaving me and Tanjiro behind them.

"Umm Tanjiro?, I keep hearing sounds inside the box..". Tanjiro turns to look at me "I will show you when we are at the in, is that okay?". I nodded "Sure!".

..

We arrived at the In, the old lady there was nice. After we ate, Zenitsu and Inosuke fell asleep, Tanjiro took the box in another room, I followed, Since we did not want to wake them.

"My Little sister Nezuko is inside the box, she is a demon, but, she has never hurt somebody, and she never will" Tanjiro explained.

I had no idea what to say, I have never heard of a demon like that before. The Corp said I must meet them so... Maybe I can trust what he says.

Slowly nodding, he opened the door of the box "Hey Nezuko, there is someone I want you to meet".

I saw a small girl climb out, but she grew as soon as she got out. "W-wow, did she just..".

"Yeah.. um... it can be shocking" Tanjiro laughed.

Nezuko started at me before walking towards me, and she was adorable "Hi Nezuko" I smile.

"I-", she hugged me out of the blue, "Umm...".

I think my brain broke when that happened, thankfully, I came to be and I hugged her back, "Mmm!" she mumbled under the muzzle.

"She's very kind... I can see that..." I said.

Tanjiro nodded and smiled.

~~~~~~~~~

Days went by, we were still at the In, Tanjiro explained why they were here, and how they met, and when Zenistu saw Nezuko, yeah... um... I have no idea what to say. We got to know each other better.

All 3 of the boys were asleep, I was still awake, I sat outside looking at the stars.

"Mm!" Turning around I see Nezuko, "Hey Nezuko!, Can't rest either?". She nodded and sat down next to me.

"Do you want me to sing a song for you?" I asked. She nodded with excitement.

(This song is called Fourth of July- by Sufjan)

"The evil it spread like a fever ahead. It was night when you died, my firefly. What could I have said to raise you from the dead?

Oh could I be the sky on the Fourth of July?

Well you do enough talk. My little hawk, why do you cry?. Tell me what did you learn from the Tillamook Burn?. Or the fourth of July, We're all gonna die.

Sitting at the bed with the halo on your head. Was it all a disguise, like Junior High. Where everything is a fiction, future , and prediction.

Now where am I?, My fading supply.

Did you get enough love?, my little dove. Why do you cry?"

I slowly rock side to side, and Nezuko laying her head in my lap, she is adorable. I stroking her hair as she falls asleep.

Since she is small, I was able to pick her up and walk back inside, all 3 of the boys asleep. I place Nezuko inside her box. I go to bed soon after.
