✓Day Of The Dead (MuiTan - TanMui)✓

Chapter Fourteen - Trust Issues

I saw couple people pointing out the ShinoMitsu stuff, don't worry, it's not how it looks, it's just for some- later purposes, very angsty purposes >:)

TW - little smutty smut

Tanjiro's pov - couple days later

"Guys? Have you seen Sanemi?" Mitsuri asked worriedly. "Sanemi? I haven't seen him since yesterday" I responded, eating my dinner.

"I can't find him anywhere, I searched through the whole shelter and nothing.." she said and sat down at the table next to me.

"Do you think.. he may have left?" Muichiro said quietly. Mitsuri's eyes widened "no no, he wouldn't do that, right?!" she said and stood up once again and ran to his room.

She soon came back, yelling "his katana is gone! H-He left! H-" "Mitsuri calm down, it'll be fine" I said and sat her back down, trying to calm her.

She took a deep breath and nodded. "He'll be fine, he already went out twice and got back just right, it'll be okay" I said, rubbing his back.

"You're right… he'll be fine" Mitsuri said and took one more deep breath. I looked over at Muichiro who was sitting at his seat, looking down at the floor, clearly something bothering him.

"Something wrong, Mui?"

He nodded "Yui.. he.." he sighed and looked up at me "I checked on him today, he… he looks terrible.. I-I don't know what's wrong with him but.. I am scared"

I nodded and went over to the room where he was chained. I liked inside to see him lying on the floor. He looked up and started crawling towards me, groaning.

"We have to do something!" Muichiro yelled out in panic. "It'll be okay Mui, it's probably because he didn't eat anything for the past days, let's find something, okay? Just don't panic, it'll be fine"

Muichiro nodded and looked at his arm "don't even think about it, Muichiro, we'll find another way" I said, knowing what he was thinking about.

"So-sorry.." he apologized quietly "but how do you want to get a dead person here! He can't he eat anything else other than human flesh"

I grabbed Muichiro's hands and looked into his eyes ''don't worry, I'll think of something, okay? Trust me" I said, trying to calm him down a bit.

He nodded and looked over at Yuichiro "okay.." he said quietly.

Shinobu's pov

I was in my room, comparing the fleshes to each other and testing them on other things and chemicals.

"What are you doin'?" I heard behind me, having me spill the chemicals. "Mitsuri! What the heck!"  I yelled out.

She laughed and said "sorry~ I didn't mean to scare you, I just came to check on you, how is it going?"

"From what I tried nothing seems to work, it makes no sense" I replied, sighing. "I am sure you'll figure something out sooner or later" she said, smiling "keep up the good work"

Mitsuri then left, leaving me alone in the room. I sighed and placed my hand on my cheek, closing my eyes "she's so beautiful.." I thought to myself.
