[I'm writing this on a computer]

Giyu's Pov

W-what..? I have to go on a mission, and don't get me wrong! I am not lazy, But this mission is on Nagato Village! Where I grew up! they called me mentally ill, what if that happens again? and Shinazugawa is paired with me, great.

"I know you fight... A lot. So try to get along on this mission ok? That includes you too Sanemi"

"Understood Master"

"Understood Master"  'As if me and Tomioka will get along' I heard Shinazuga-rat say under his breath, and I agree we will never get along

When they got closer to the Village

No one's POV

Tomioka shivered, he got closer  his childhood village, what bad could happen? A lot, If the villagers found out he was there, there would only be a handful of people who would try to hide him. The others would try to sell him to a man who did a very bad thing to him. so he had to be careful to be there unnoticed. 

Shinazugawa/Sanemi turned to look at Tomioka, thinking that the water thought he was better then him because his aura was un-easy. This ticked him off.

"Put your katana away, they'll call you a psychopath if you don't"
Tomioka said, warning him of what might happen. What has happened. Whag he experienced himself.

"Tch.. Fine" Sanemi Put his sword in a bag they had brought with them. The same as Tomioka had done

Just now, Sanemi sensed an aura of fear from Tomioka, was he really scared of a demon? Or was he scared of something else? Sanemi being himself thought the first one.

"Why the hell are you scared of a demon? You're a hashira!" Tomioka flinched, only by a little but it's noticeable. The fear in his eyes got recognized. Even Sanemi is mean, he doesn't want to be the reason why someone flinch. He would never make somebody remember their trauma. Never.

"I'm... Sorry... It's just that-" He couldn't believe it, He was seriously crying in front of another hashira. The wind hashira is seeing him cry.

How pathetic!

Is crying ALL you do!?

Shut up!

That'll teach you to shut up

Make the memories stop! Make them stop! Tomioka slams his hands over his ears, trying to stop the sound of the memories. But he can't, they keep coming and coming. Never stoping.

"Oi! Wake up! I reminded you of the past didn't I? Apologies... I didn't know" Others might find Sanemi apologizing weird, but deep inside he is kind. He's rude because of having to 'murder'his mother. And killing demons despite knowing nothing of the demon slayer corps.

"It's alright... Don't worry"

On the Inside of Nagato Village

Whispers surrounded them, did they recognize Giyu? He didn't even get anything to cover his face. He just hoped they would say that he looked like Giyu Tomioka at an older age. And that is what they did.

"Hello mister! Are you a Tomioka by any chance?" A girl said, this was Giyu's best friend, she helped him escape when no one batted an eye for the poot boy. Yet, he could not take risks.

"Ye-" Sanemi got cut off by Giyu, who shot a glare at him.

"No, My name is Toshi Motota"

Why did he lie about his name? Sanemi thought, maybe he fakes his name on missions? No that couldn't be... maybe he knows this girl. He added to his train of thoughts.

"I'm sorry, I thought you were my best friend from 11 years ago, I really miss him and you look awfully a lot like him, My name is Shiluki Shabana"

"Mhm..."

The white haired young woman went out of sight, but gave them advice before she went

"Also, there is a house a little further away from the others, the owners were my best friend and his big sister, they were kind. Do not break anything if you go there"

"Ok, Bye Shabana-san"

"Bye!"

Now the girl went out of sight, Sanemi asks Giyu one question he was holding back.

"Why'd you fake your name?" He whispered and yelled this as they walk through the village looking for any signs of demons.

"I cannot have them know my real name, I'm sorry"

"I won't push anymore further, you sound like you're going to cry Tomioka"

"May--maybe we can get along after all"
