As the bright moon rose from its slumber, the hashira and his tsugoko's all got ready for their mission. Apparently the demon in the forest has been kidnapping and eating children, to the point where they're bodies arent even recognizable. 

"Zenitsu! Inosuke! Can one of you carry Nezuko's box for me please?" Tanjiro said, Zenitsu immediately picked up Nezukos box, with her inside. Inosuke didnt really care.

"Alright. We must ask the village people first about this demon so we can get clues, ok?" Rengoku gave a nod at Tanjiro, and they all walked to the village.

It was a short 10 minute walk from the cave to the village. The village was a rather developing one. It had some modern stuff like the entertainment district, but, it was still a normal village none the less. 

"Everytime a young child went out to go with their older sibling or some sort, both of them would never return! The demon would normally leave a trail of blood, as if it wanted us to follow it. Thats how we find the bodies, normally." A village person told Tanjiro. Kyojuro thought for a second before he walked away, Tanjiro quickly caught up with him.

"Boar-Head, can you and yellow haired boy go and look around the village for some blood?" Kyojuro asked, Inosuke did a quick nod before grabbing Zenitsu and running into the darkness that was cloaked in the village. 

"Rengoku...What about me?" Tanjiro asked, Kamado felt like he was useless for a second before Kyojuro stopped walking, and turned to him.

"You will help me defeat the demon. Upper or lower, no matter what." Kyojuro patted the young tsugoko's head before running ontop of the village houses, searching the neighborhood.

----------------

"Inosuke-- C-Can I sit this out? Its to dark and terrifying! AH!" Zenitsu was startled by a small critter popping out of a box. It was a rat.

"Hold on for a minute Kenatsu! Hold you shit talk." Inosuke snorted, before walking to the box the rat came out of.

When Inosuke looked inside, he was merely disturbed.

It was the rotting corpse of a baby.

"What the fuck...Zenitsu! Run back to Tanpachiro and bug eyes!" Inosuke yelled, Zenitsu's body shook with fear.

"Well-- By myself?... I mean I have Nezuko but--" Inosuke slapped Zenitsu's head before shoving the thunder user.

"GO GET THEM NOW!"

----------------------

"Now, I wonder when they will return." Kyojuro said. He jinxed himself as soon as he said that, Zenitsu came running towards them.

"WE FOUND A BABY! A DEAD BABY IN A BOX! COME!" Zenitsu urged them to come with him, and they did. Quickly shuffling to the spot where the baby was. But, since Inosuke was alone, trouble stirred up quick.

-------------

"Damn. This demon killed a fucking baby? They're is so much bite and claw marks on the thing.." Inosuke said, before hearing a voice chuckle.

"Your right. I did.. Kehehe!~" The voice did a hoarse laugh before crawling out of the dark.

( Custom lower moon demon lol )
It was a lower moon one demon. They were tall, and wore a red and white blood stained kimono. They're eyes were blind, but were engraved with numbers. How could they see? Most likely they could feel the slayers motions and movement. They had white, spiky hair.

"Your uglier than your voice!" Inosuke laughed, before the lower moon demon rushed at Inosuke, making him get knocked back.

----------------

"I heard him!" Zenitsu said with fear. 

'I feel tired of running...Maybe I should take a quick nap.' Zenitsu thought, immediatley stopping his running, and simply fell asleep. Making Tanjiro stop running, and Kyojuro just continued.

"Zenitsu! Wake up! This isn't the time to--" 

"Hold on, Tanjiro. Lets just go find Inosuke first."

------------------

"Your weaker than you seem, brat. Im blind yet you cant even see where my movements are coming from." The demon said, before jumping on top of Inosuke, who was lying on the dirt ground, his two swords on the ground.

"SHING!"

Rengoku came in to save Inosuke at the last minute. His blade cutting the demons tongue in half. The demon tried eating Inosuke.

"You damn bug!" The lower moon roared, before rushing at Kyojuro, only to be stopped by Tanjiro's katana stabbing through the demons chest.

The demon felt the stab, and activated their blood demon arts, in a panic.

"Blood demon art: Burn!" It was a move that came out of the demons body, spewing burning black ink. Similar to Kurihara's blood demon arts. 

It made tanjiro's hands get wounded, he let go of his katana on accident, it still stuck in the demons chest.

Inosuke woke up from his accidental slumber, and immediately tried going for the demons neck, only to be stopped by a blinding ink sac.

"GRAHH!" Inosuke roared, the ink went through his boar-head mask, and into his eyes. It felt like he was getting stabbed multiple times.

Kyojuro was angry at this, and charged at the Demon.

"Flame Breathing, third form, BLAZING UNIVERSE!" The move damaged the Demons body badly. Kyojuro then went for the demons neck, it was tough and stiff.

"RAAHH!!"  Kyojuro yelled, and was halfway cutting the demons neck. Zenitsu, at the last minute, unleashed his move.

"Thunder breathing...First form; Thunderclap and Flash!" The boy moved like a lightning bolt, and stabbed through the demons neck, with Kyojuro's help too.

They cut the demons head off successfully, but that wasnt all.

"Hehe...You all thought it was that easy?...No... Its not." The demon growled, before 2 others came out of the shadows, looking exactly like the same demon.

"WHAT THE--" Inosuke said before taking off his boar mask, his eyes red and teary. He still couldnt see, but could feel the movements of the demons. He picked up his swords, and went to one of the demons.

"Beast breathing, third fang; Crazy CUTTING!" Inosuke laughed, before stabbing and cutting the demons body into multiple pieces, but it was just a scratch to the demon.

"INOSUKE! ITS NOT THAT SIMPLE-- GAHH!" Tanjiro yelled, before getting stabbed through the abdomen by the second demon.

"KAMADO!" Kyojuro yelled, "DO THE BREATHING TECHNIQUE! STOP THE HEALING!" Kyojuro yelled before charging at the demon.

"Flame breathing, FIFTH FORM! FLAME TIGER!" Kyojuro stabbed through the demon, struggling to cut the neck.

'Its only a lower moon! Why am I struggling!?" Kyojuro thought.

The demon's neck had some sort of ink tentacles coming out of its neck, and it grabbed ahold of Rengoku's blade, making him take it out.

Tanjiro did total concentration breathing, making his bleeding stop, but he was still in some pain.

Meanwhile, Zenitsu helped Inosuke try and defeat the demon he was dealing with.

"Inosuke! Go infront while I go behind!" Zenitsu ordered, the boar-man followed.

"Thunder breathing...First form; Thunderclap and flash!" Zenitsu's blade was right against the demons neck, but the demon did their blood demon arts quicker.

"Blood demon art; Splitting Ink!"
