Tanjiro kept sobbing his eyes out with Nezuko and the birds by his side. He nor Nezuko and the birds didn't realized, that there was an old women sitting behind them, on the stone bench from behind.

"Excuse me?" The mysteries old women said.

"Oh!" Tanjiro gasped in surprised.

Nezuko and the birds also jumped in surprised.

"Can you help me?" asked the old mysteries begger women "Just a little crust of bread or drink?"

"Yes, I think I can find something for you." Tanjiro replied as he went somewhere to locate anything for the old women.

Tanjiro poured a cup of water from a near by water pump.

"Why you crying?" She asked.

"It's nothing." Tanjiro responded. He headed the cup of water to the old women as the old woman drank up the water.

"Nothing? Hm nothing, what is a bowl of water? nothing. But kindness make's it every thing." the old woman said as finished up and let out a small burb causing Tanjiro to let out a small giggle.

"Now I don't mean to hurry you but, you haven't got long, Tanjiro."

"...How do you know me?" Tanjiro asked. "Who are you?"

"Who am I?" The old woman said. "I thought you would figure that out. I'm your Demon godmother."

"You can't be." Tanjiro said.

"Why not?"

"They don't exist, there just made up."

"Didn't your own father believe in them? Cause I heard him." the old woman replied.

"you heard him?" Tanjiro asked, confused.

"Oh fiddle fuddle." The old woman said getting up with her cane walking towards the green garden field. "Right first thing's first, let me slip into something more comfortable." She said.

She activated her cane as it began relishing a flower pattern mist in the air as the old woman transformed into a more younger women, Lady Tamayo.

Tanjiro and Nezuko gasped in shock, as to the rest of the animals.

"That's better." Tamayo said, cracking a bit her neck. "Now were was I?"

"How did you?" Tanjiro asked walking up to her.

"Oh yes, let see what we need is something sorta that say's coach." Tamayo said.

"How about, that turnip." Tanjiro pointed to the turnip in the garden.

"Doesn't really say coach. No, I'm really liking, fruit and vegetables. Do you grow watermelons?" Tamayo asked.

"No."

"Caddish?"

"I don't even know what that is."

"Beef tomato?"

"We do have pumpkins." Tanjiro said.

"Oh, that will do." She said.

The two made their way to the pumpkin shed, just around the corner of the garden.

"This will be a first for me, this should be interesting."

Tamayo looked around for the perfect pumpkin. "Ah! this one will do." She cut the pumpkin's stem and carried it. "Oof heavy pumpkin!"

Tanjiro helped her out as the two tried to kept their balance, due to the heaviness of the pumpkin.

They placed the pumpkin in the middle of the shed.
