SaneGiyuu: Wind and Water don't get along

PART 39: START OF THE MISSION

The three Hashiras walked as Sanemi's Kasugai Crow leaded.

"I-I'm feeling tired, shall we rest somewhere before we continue walking again?"
Asked Mitsuri.

"NO! If we continue walking, we will reach our destination sooner. Actually, you are walking at a very slow pace. Come on! Walk faster!"
Sanemi said, looking irritated. He suddenly started walking even faster.

Giyuu hesitatingly opened his mouth as if to say something.

"I'm feeling tired too, if we rest somewhere, will it really be a problem?"
Asked Giyuu.

"Sigh... Fine! we can rest."

Mitsuri gasped. She was just about to say something but Sanemi interrupted.

"Only because you both are asking me too!"
He said.

"I'm hungry... Shall we go have something?"
Mitsuri asked and Sanemi nodded.

"Yeah, whatever. I'm hungry too."
He said.

Back in the Demon Slayer Headquarters:-

"Tomioka-San went on a mission?"
Shinobu asked in disbelief.

"YES!"
Kyojuro replied in courageous way.

But... This is not good! Tomioka-San and I were supposed to go to the fair together which is 6 days away! This shouldn't be happening. What if he takes a lot of time to return?

Shinobu's thoughts made her worry.

"Rengoku-San? Has he gone on the mission alone?"
She asked curiously.

"NO, I HAVE HEARD THAT KANROJI AND SHINAZUGAWA WENT WITH HIM!"
Kyojuro replied.

"Oh, I see. Thank you very much for the information!"
Shinobu said as she smiled at him.

"NO PROBLEM!"
Kyojuro smiled back and walked away.

Shinobu didn't have much problem when she heard that 'Kanroji' had gone with him. She knew Mitsuri was a very reliable person and trusted her very much. But the name which scared her was,

Shinazugawa.

Shinobu was aware that if Sanemi went with him, things won't go good. She knew her 'love' would be taken away from her if Sanemi went with him. She started worrying about Giyuu more.

She went to the Butterfly Mansion and sat on the bed.

She was lost in her thoughts but soon gained conciousness as she heard loud voices coming from the Mansion.

"Stay away, Zenitsu!"
Tanjiro exclaimed hiding his demon sister behind him.

"Tan...Ji...Ro...! Let's be friends! Please, let me look at Nezuko-Chan!"
Zenitsu held Tanjiro's hands.

"There's no way!"
Tanjiro shouted.

Nezuko peeked from behind and saw Zenitsu's red face.

"NEZUKO-CHAAAAAN!!!!!! NEZUKO-CHAN LOOKED AT ME, SHE LOOKED AT ME! TANJIRO!"

Both the boys and the demon sister suddenly heard a familiar voice coming from above.

"HAHAHA! MONITSU, GONPACHIRO!
FIGHT ME, MUAHAHAHA!"

It was Inosuke.

He had climbed on the ceiling.

"I-Inosuke!? Get down!"
Tanjiro exclaimed.

"Ara Ara~ What's that noise?"

They heard Shinobu's voice coming from a distance and the sound of footsteps approaching them.

Inosuke jumped down and fell on top of Zenitsu, who fell face first. Tanjiro stared at the two and Nezuko stood behind him, silently peeking.

Shinobu came inside.

"Ara Ara~ what was going on here?"
She asked, surprised as she processed the scene she was looking at in her head.

"We're sorry for this. On behalf of them, I apologise!"

Tanjiro said as he bowed before her.

Inosuke, still on top of Zenitsu, stared at the red head.

"It's fine, don't apologise."
Shinobu walked away.

"Get off of me!"
Zenitsu shouted.

"Yeah whatever!"
Inosuke replied.

"GUYS STOP IT!"

The three stopped nearby and ate some food before continuing.

"Mmm! The food was delicious wasn't it?"
Asked Mitsuri.

"Yeah, it was!"
Replied Sanemi.

The three continued their mission.

"WE HAVE REACHED! WE HAVE REACHED!"

The crow cawed.

"Finally!"
Sanemi sighed out of relief.

"We've finally arrived!"
Mitsuri said.

"I'm glad we reached early."
Replied Giyuu.

And I'm glad that you're glad, Giyuu!
Sanemi's thoughts made him blush.

"Let's go."
Giyuu said, following the flying crow.

The other two followed him from behind.

They kept walking, starting their mission.
