FOR A MOMENT, (M/n) saw something red zipping towards him in the air at the corner of his eye. Luckily, he was quick enough to react and left Tamayo's and Yushiro's side and ran off from the red arrows that were coming towards him. He's not stupid, he knows clearly that these two are after him. But Susamaru forgot that he should be taken to him, alive.

He N̶a̶r̶u̶t̶o̶ ran away from the arrows and dodged them everytime they get too close to him. He jumped off a tree, but he felt something around his body. Whatever it was, wrapped around him and then pulled him in a certain direction. The piercing voices of the others yelling after him in worry.

Suddenly, it stopped and he blinked. That red arrow... He merely thought as he furrowed his eyebrows, he looked to his side and saw the face of Yahaba grinning at him mischievously. "We will take you with us to him."

"If only you were lucky," (M/n) sweetly quietly said to him, smiling as if he were mocking him. The arrow man's closed right eye slightly twitched in anger.

"Let him go!", Tanjiro yelled, angered. Sprinting forward as he prepared for an attack, Yahaba had other plans.

"Tsk. What grimy little imp you are... Stay away from me!", Yahaba fumed, he moved his arms with eyes in his palms to make an arrows appear beneath Tanjiro, which caused the boy to miss his attack on Yahaba. Afterwards, the eldest Kamado was thrown back by the arrow and soon after, even more arrows of the arrow demon appeared, which send Tanjiro flying around the area like a tornado was happening.

While Yahaba was focused on Tanjiro, (M/n) quickly turned himself around with all his strength. The twirl in the direction of the arrow made it unfold from his figure. Afterwards, he used this chance to pull out his sword from the scabbard, in attempt to attack the distracted Yahaba.

However, he had not been as inattentive as he had thought. Now, more red arrows wrapped around his body and limbs, stopping his attack. All of the were turning in different directions, which prevented him from escaping. It was impossible.

"Hm, smart move. But i'm smarter than you, little monkey." Yahaba chuckled at (M/n)'s attempt and the boy's expression only hardened with seriousness.

He continued to watch as Tanjiro get thrown through the air by Yahaba's red arrows, the burgundy male getting hit by the trees and ground. It looked awfully painful... and it was indeed painful.
