Tanjiro's Pov

"You're.. Being serious?"

Nezuko is looking into the glowing pond under the moonlight while me and Akaza face eachother. "An entertainment district?"
"Uh.. Yeah." He shrugged. "Well.. I guess- another demon knows about you.. And well- she wants to meet you.."

"From the.. Entertainment district?"
He sighed. "I don't need to worry about a disguise, and I doubt you'd see anyone you know there, it's not like you're friends with a bunch of grown men. There's that boar freak and lightning boy, they're kids right? Who else.."

"What about the flower?" I ask, still concerned. "And what about Nezuko?"

"..The box! You have a weird box right?"
"Yes- but it's back at the butterfly mansion, and I don't think it's a good idea going back this early."

"I'll come with you!"
"NO."

"How come Nezuko is allowed? I'm a demon too!" He crossed his arms.
"Well.. Because she's a friendly demon. You're an uppermoon." 

He sighed. "Well.. Nezuko is just going to have to do that growing thing then. Unless you can figure out how to get that box." He shrugged. "And we won't stay for long, it'd give us enough time to get the flower when it's dawn."

I hesitate, tensing up. "..I don't know.. Taking Nezuko doesn't seem right, especially since I'm not on a mission. And.. I don't know- she's still just a child."

"Leave her here. I don't mind." Akaza replied with a bored tone. I guess I'll have to take her. I'm not leaving her here incase she gets put in danger, and  I don't like it when we're apart.

Akaza's Pov

It didn't take long to get to the Entertainment district. Tanjiro kept his sister with him, aswell as his sword. It's not like Daki would try to hurt him.. I don't think. Nezuko grew to a normal teeagers size, almost as tall as Tanjiro,  and stayed near him. I've never been here before, at least I haven't been here in a long time, so I'm not exactly sure where she is. 

"Uhm.. We need directions." I mumble, looking around.
"I can ask where your friend is.. Give me a name!" He smiled to me.
"I don't know her name, I can't remember.. Warabihime, I think." I shrug, he nods and walks away, leaving the brat with me.

I cross my arms, ignoring the fact that Nezuko is staring at me. But soon, my patience left me. "What are you looking at?!" I speak harshly. She then turns her head. Good, that should teach her. I turn to walk somewhere, anywhere to feel less.. In the way. But Nezuko tapped my arm. I sigh. "What!?"
She turned her head again, this time pointing. I roll my eyes, looking where her hand was pointing to. I then freeze. A Hashira. . .

We stared at eachother for a few moments, me and him- aswell as three other younger and slightly ugly looking girls- sharing the same expression of shock. "Kyogoku house!"
I flinch, turning around quickly to see Tanjiro. "Warabihime is in Kyogoku house. Is something wrong?"

"No. Nothing's wrong.." I pause, taking a silent breath. "Kyogoku house is this way." I grab his and Nezuko's arm, taking them towards the Kyogoku house. As we stood infront of the entrance, I took a deep breath.
"Let's go meet Daki.. Ignore her rude personality.. She's very self absorbed." I speak in a calmer tone. "Daki? What happened to Warabihime?" Tanjiro asked in a quiet mumble. "That's just her fake name. She's an Oiran."

"Oiran.. Okay." He had a tone of uncertainty. We walk in, and I somehow manage to find the door to her room. Looking both ways, I make sure nobody but us is here right now. "Daki." I knock on the door, and it flies open. "Akaza!! In-- IN!"
We're all pulled in as the door slammed shut, the moonlight lighting up the dark room. "uhm.. This is Tanjiro and his demon sister, Nezuko." I speak with an awkward tone. Daki looks excited.. How troublesome is this..?

"Hey!" She has a bright smile. She then holds one of Tanjiro's earrings in her hands. "Hanafuda earrings!"
He laughed awkwardly. "..Yes..!"

"I'm Daki! I love your eyes, they're pretty." Daki smiled an even brighter smile.. That's my line..

"Thankyou! Your eyes are also very pretty!"
"Thanks! And this is your sister? How adorable!!"

We're now sitting on the floor while Daki plays with Nezuko's hair, me and Tanjiro sitting opposite her. "Okay.. You've met him. We can leave now." I go to stand up. "No! Stay." Daki ordered. "I want to get to know Jiro and Nezuko!"

"..Jiro?" I mumble.
"Mhm! A cute little nickname-- you don't mind do you?" Daki asked Tanjiro, who smiled back. "Not at all! I quite like it."

Jiro? I should have been the one to think of a nickname.

"So, Jiro- how come you're still alive? I'd expect your sister to try to devour you, poor thing has a muzzle.." She frowned as she removed Nezuko's muzzle. "Oh- actually the muzzle is just a precaution. She's allowed to take it off if she doesn't like it.. Uhm, she's never really devoured anyone yet though.. So-"
"EH? Nobody?! You mean.. No human?"

He nods. "She sleeps instead, and protects humans..!"

"So.. Then, Akaza--"
"I lost an arm first time I met her." I sigh. "Your lucky you were labelled a friend before you met her. She's strong.."

"Ooo, so you lost just an arm? Doesn't seem--"
"And a few legs.. And a few more arms.. Almost my entire head.. But that's besides the point. I've learned my lesson."

"I see, you're such a precious angel hm? Let's be best friends." She giggled to Nezuko, who smiled back. "..I also heard that you know the location of the blue Spider lilly hm?"

Tanjiro glances to me. "I didn't tell anyone." I quickly mumble.
"..Uhm, yes.. I do."

Daki stayed silent for a moment. "You two are so sweet together! Akaza's risking his life to be able to spend time with you in the sun- and you're risking your life by being with an uppermoon!" Daki began clapping. "True love."

Shocked, I shake my head. "No.. He's just a good friend is all." I don't know why I said it.. I guess to save me from embarrassment. "Mhm su--" Daki froze. "I sense a Hashira.."

"Hashira? Well, last time I checked, it was only Uzui who went on a mission."
"Perhaps he had white hair, along with two obviously not girls-girls and an actual girl?" I ask, he turned to me. "Blonde, blue and black?"

I nod. "Yes, that's them." Jiro sighed. "I hope they didn't see me.."

About that.. They may have seen all three of us.. "Something feels off. I'll have to finish them quickly." She sighs, standing up.
"B-but they're my friends!" Tanjiro stood up quickly.

Tanjiro's Pov

Ofcourse, a demon wouldn't listen.. "I'll help. I need a little excercise anyway." Akaza stretched. "We won't kill them. I'll make sure of it.. Just go back to the pond, I'll meet you there."

"Take your sister too." Akaza gently pushed Nezuko towards me. "But-"
"We won't kill them. Go."

"Ah, I wanted to spend more time with you two.. But I'll get my chance next time.!"  Daki smiled to me and my sister.
