PoV: Zenitsu
Yukko, Haruto, and Zenitsu stood outside the Master's room, waiting patiently to speak with him.
A small, white haired child appeared almost silently beside them. "The master will see you now." She said quietly, opening the door.
"Good evening Master," Zenitsu muttered quietly, "Are you in good health?" He asked the young boy infront of then. The boy gave a sad smile, his blind gaze falling upon the three Hashiras infront of him.
"Yes I am Zenitsu, thank you for asking." The blonde nodded as the three sat down in front of the Master.
"We were unable to slay the demon, but I will have you know we encountered Uppermoon One and belive that she was the one that massacred the villagers." Haruto explained, with Yukko leaning against him, presumably asleep.
"I see..." the Master mumbled thoughtfully, "Well, this is quite useful information..." He smiled again at the three slayers. "Even if you were incapable of slaying the demon you three encountered, I count this as a successful mission."
Zenitsu grimaced slightly. In his eyes, he'd failed that mission, and failed as a Hashira. He wasn't proud of what had happened. Not one bit, not at all.
"Master, may Yukko and I speak with you... Alone?" Haruto said quickly, side eyeing Zenitsu. Zenitsu blinked in confusion, but shrugged and stood up.
"I'll be taking my leave then." He said, leaving through the already open sliding door, and closing it behind him.
Zenitsu considered staying outside to listen, but decided agasint it, and quickly made his way back to his estate.
A/N: Sorry for such a short chapter! Next one will be out very soon.
