Tanjiro's pov:

So all I had to do is survive for 7 days in here.
Shouldn't be that hard right?.. I had ran into a couple of demons asking how to turn a demon back human, but they where just focused on eating me so I needed to kill them all...none of them where answering my question, as I thought to myself, I saw someone running away. He was running away from a demon! I quickly stood in front of him to see that this demon has a bunch of arms! He looked kind of mutated too-
I tried to attack it and avoid all his attacks, i got hit by one attack and blacked out because i hit a tree making my forehead bleed- i got up again as he was about to kill me! but, while we fighting, he mentioned that he killed 13 of Urokodaki's students. He said that there where 2 that impressed him the most, a boy with a weird shade of pink hair.. He apparantly crushed his skull.. and a girl with a flower patterned kimono who he tore ever limb off of.. I could feel the anger inside of me, i try to calm down tho. Calm down Tanjiro! Get your breathing under controle...!

As the demon was about to attack me, and i was dodging or cutting his arms off, eventually I cut off his head! I looked back at him in sympathy and I could smell that he was sad for some reason so I held his hand. I prayed and hoped that he wouldn't be a demon in his next life as he crumbled away.









Final Selection was over and I made it back too the wisteria place, there where only 4 people that survived? I guess that guy didn't make it... But luckily Nezuko didnt get killed so I was relieved. I quickly ran to hug her and maybe shed a few tears of joy too. She hugged me back, but thats when i realize As the black haired girl started talking about the ranks and uniform, one of the people here who had a mowhawk began to be annoyed, and grabbed the girl by her hair! I holded his arm saying to let go. He wouldn't so I threatened him by breaking his arm a bit. Luckily the girl was fine and we where asighned kasugai crows. We also had to chose between ores, which I didnt get but I still picked one out.

Nezuko and i helped eachother out as we where both too exhausted too walk. When we FINALLY get to the cabinet, we both where super exhausted ofcourse- when we almost where there I saw someone kicking the door open...I saw Zenitsu awake! I quickly ran but tripped out of exhaustion, he ran towards me and Nezuko and we both where crying tears of happiness and hugged him crying in relieve. He hugged me back and Nezuko was hugging him too. When Urokodaki saw me and Nezuko alive, he began tearing up and hugging us. Saying he was relieved too see us back alive again.

Don't worry Sabito, Makomo and all the rest of the children that died because of that demon.. You all can rest now.

A few days have past after Final Selection, I see someone with a mask and a hat walking towards the cabinet. He said that he was here to Deliver Mine and Nezuko's katana! I welcomed him inside but he just kept on talking about the katana's he forged- after a while, he finally got in the cabinet while Zenitsu hid under the bed blankets.

Zenitsu's pov:

It looked like a man was giving Tanjiro and Nezuko katana's, they held the katana's and they changed color! I stared at the katana's as they changed colors, Nezuko's katana turned blue while Tanjiro's katana became black. The man then started attacking Tanjiro because he didnt have a red katana.
I found it hilarious tho-

After the man was gone, 2 crows appeared and it looked like Tanjiro and Nezuko where asighned two different mission, it took a while before they could say bye too each other. They did rock paper scissors before Nezuko needed to head out too mission too see who would carry me on their journeys and Tanjiro won! So- Nezuko was a bit disappointed about that. When Nezuko has left for her mission, Urokodaki pulled out a box.
He said that I could get in the box so that Tanjiro could carry me around in the day.

Tanjiro's pov:

Urokodaki said that I could bring Zenitsu with me anywhere with this box. Zenitsu gave it a try and went in the box, of course he became tiny an went in. He then closed the door from inside the box and I was ready to go to the mission as I had gotten dressed in my uniform. I said bye Urokodaki and went off to the mission.
Apparently there was a town that had many disappearances of young girls, so when I arrived at the village, I saw a man that looked like he got beaten up badly-

I heard all around the town that the fiance of Kazumi had gone missing last night so I asked if he was okay, he said he was fine, but it didnt look like that- i could tell that he was very sad about her disappearance. I promised that we would find her! I then smelled a faint scent somewhere...I started too sniff around the village to find where that faint smell was its strongest- it had already turned night when I wasn't done yet. I smell the smell of a demon very clear, I quickly rushed off to somewhere and the guy named kazumi Started following since he's been following me all the time that I've been sniffing around. I then see a black swamp- I saw a girls hand! I quickly grab her out of the swamp. And backed up.

'Hey! I was about to eat her!' A demon came out of the pond-
Another demon also came out of a swamp behind me. 'Calm down me, I have eaten many young girls-' 'SHUT UP OTHER ME I DIDNT GET TO EAT HER WHILE SHE IS STILL FRESH!' I heard the demon scream. It looked like the demon split into 2 or had two clones something. 'Let my fiance go!' I heard kazumi yell at the demon. The demon hesitated for a bit before pulling out an collection.'Well... If her hairpin is in this collection, I'm afraid I already ate her.' The demon then showed his collection. I saw that Kazumi was staring at the ground in sorrow and defeat. When all of the sudden a demon charged at me. I slash his arm off with a
water breathing techniek while protecting the girl and Kazumi.

(I forgot to add the part where Tanjiro gave the girl to Kazumi)

And then another demon tried to attack me. Apparently this demon has split into 3- The demons charged at me from the ground so I attacked them again and sliced they're arms off. Kazumi backed up as I protected them. I could then smell fear from inside the box... Poor Zenitsu. Suddenly a demon charged at me from behind! I DIDNT have enough time too move
Free!-
Zenitsu kicked the door from the box open and kicked the demon, causing the swamp demon's head to spin and he fell as he coughed a little blood. It looked like Zenitsu was asleep tho-

'Why would a human...'
