"Hey, Tanjiro-San? What do you think Master-Kocho needs to talk to Master-Udokodaki about?" Kanao asks, Tanjiro looks over at her, "I'm not sure. Maybe something about Tomioka-San, or Sabito-San and Makomo-San." Tanjiro replies, turning his head and looking forward, while Kanao continues to look at him, a confused look on her face.
"Who is Sabito-San and Makomo-San?" She questions, Tanjiro looks back over at her. "Oh, Sabito-San and Makomo-San are two people who helped train me. Well, during final selection I found out they were dead the entire time and they were just ghosts, but they still trained me. I think you'll be able to see them at the boulder, I'll show you it." The red head explains.
"Okay?" She responds, but it sounded more of a question than a response. "Hey! Inosuke-San, don't do that!" Tanjiro yelled, as Inosuke started chopping down trees, while Zenitsu covers his ears.
Back with Kocho and Udokodaki ———>
"So, what do you want to ask?" Udokodaki asks, "Well.. I wanted to start off with who Emma was?" Kocho questions, Udokodaki lowers his head slightly, "Emma was a girl Giyuu knew as a child. They grew up together and treated each other like family." He explains, as Kocho starts to write stuff in her notebook, that she brung with her.
"Okay. Do you know of a boy who has white hair, blue eyes and a full on white outfit?" She asks, Udokodaki brings his head up again, "That sounds like Norman. He also grew up with Giyuu and Emma." The masked man explains, "How did the three know each other?" Kocho questions.
"They grew up in the same orphanage. Every child at that orphanage wore a full white outfit, brown shoes, and occasionally a grey sweater. There was a mother that took care of all the children in the house, some occasions there would be a sister, who helped the mother of the house take care of the children." Udokodaki explains, Kocho writing everything in her notebook, nodding as she wrote and listened.
"Anything else?" He asked, the butterfly girl lifted her head, "A girl, a girl that looks identical to Tomioka-San, just a different outfit?" She asks, "Sounds like Tsutako. Poor thing.." Udokodaki comments, "Who is she?" Kocho asks, curiosity overcoming her.
"She was Giyuu's older sister, she took care of him his entire life. Their parents died by illness before Giyuu could know them, she was left alone to take care of him, with help from the townspeople, of course." The masked man explains, "What happened to her?" The butterfly girl questioned.
"She was killed when Giyuu was six. A demon attacked their home, Giyuu only survived, because Tsutako hid him before the demon could get him. She was killed right in front of him, that's scared him for life." Udokodaki explains, while guilt overcomes the girl. *I feel bad for bullying him now..* Kocho thinks to herself.
"I've heard your quite mean to him. May I ask why?" He questions, Kocho who had lowered her head, lifted her head again. "I reminded him he didn't have friends, so that he would feel he could prove me wrong and make friends." She explains, "So, you were just trying to get him to talk to others?" He asks, "Mhm." She mumbles as response.
"Alright. Do you have any other questions?" Udokodaki asks, changing the subject, "Who is Sabito?" She asks, "He was one of my students, he was quite amazing, he and Giyuu were best friends, along with Makomo." He says, a visible smile on his face. "What happened?" The curious girl asks.
"They were both killed during final selection, by the biggest and strongest demon in that mountain. Sabito died protecting Giyuu, Sabito gave him to another kid on the mountain, since Giyuu was seconds from passing out," Udokodaki starts, "When Giyuu woke up, final selection was over and Sabito and Makomo were dead. I couldn't get him to eat, drink or sleep for a long time after that." He finishes.
A huge form of guilt comes over Kocho, "One more question." Kocho says and Udokodaki nods. "How did Tomioka-San lose his memories?" She asks, as the man in front of her becomes visibly shocked. Udokodaki sighs, lowering his head, "After final selection, a few months after actually. He went on a mission, he got injured badly, I pretty sure the demon was a lower moon. He was only 13 at the time, so I'm not sure why they sent him, but a Hashira came, killed the demon and saved him." He starts explaining.
"They brought him back to me, so I took care of him, when he woke up he remembered a few things, like who I was, his name and where he was, but he forgot everything else." He finishes, lifting his head up mid sentence, "Who was the Hashira who saved him?" Kocho asks, "The stone Hashira, Himejima Gyomei."He says, while Kocho becomes visibly shocked.
"Alright, that was all I had to ask. Thank you very much for your time." Kocho says, while a visible smile comes onto Udokodaki's face and almost like on cue, the Kamaboko Squad comes back, "Sorry, did we interrupt?" Tanjiro asks, Udokodaki and Kocho look over at him and Udokodaki shakes his head.
"We just got finished, go set up, I'll go make your beds for the night." He says, Tanjiro nods and the kids come in and set up to make food, while Udokodaki stands up, heading towards a room with a bunch of bedding. Kocho sighs, standing up and looking out the window, *Why didn't you tell me about this, Tomioka-San..*
