You sat in the spot between Mitsuri and Tengen. "Dumbass Kamado." You heard Sanemi say. "Shut it." Sanemi looked at you confused. It had been months since you said that. "I feel bad for this child." Gyomei said crying. "I feel bad for your doctor. Always crying it must me a health concern." Sanemi said. Gyomei ignored him. "Tanjiro is a sweet child." Giyuu said. "How would you know?!" You yelled at him. "Kyyyyaaaaah it's so sweet that you care about Tanjiro!" Mitsuri said smiling. "Is a bit strange. Something you want to tell us Y/n?" Obani questioned. "His father took me in and helped me after my parents died." You admitted. "That was very flashy of them!" Tengen commented. "Yes it was very nice!" Rengoku agreed. Kanae didn't say anything. Then Shinobu appeared. "Sorry I'm late everyone!" She said smiling. "Huh? Why are you here?" You questioned. "Well while you were loving my sister I became a Hashira." She said brightly. "Oh? So you two are together?" Tengen asked. You smacked the back of his head. "Shut it old man!" Mitsuri laughed at this. "He deserves that." Obani said. Suddenly Sanemi appeared with the box Nezuko was in. "Well we'll look at this..." he said smiling. "NEZUKO!" Tanjiro screamed. Sanemi then stabbed his sword into the box coming out the other end, blood dripping down the sword. "NEZUKO! YOU BASTARD!" Tanjiro yelled and ran to Sanemi. Tanjiro jumped in the air and headbutted Sanemi. Both landed on the ground. Tanjiro was the first to get up and stand in front of Nezukos box. Mitsuri was holding In a laugh as best she could. "Pfft...." You heard her snicker. "My children let us begin." You heard  Ubuyashikis voice say. Everyone immediately bowed except you. You needed to get your point across that you were serious about this. Ubuyashiks daughter told him this and he nodded understanding. "Tanjiro Kamado you are on trial for hiding a demon. How do you plead." One of the twins questioned. "Nezuko is innocent! She hasn't eaten or harmed anyone yet! She turned into a demon two years ago!" Tanjiro protested. "Really? Let's see what this demon does!" Sanemi smirked. He sliced his arm blood dripping down onto the box. "Come on demon! Dinner time!" The box didn't move. "It's a demon it won't come out in the day dumbass." Obani said crossing his arms. Sanemi jumped onto the house porch in the shade. Then Nezuko came out. She had piercing blue eyes and was foaming from the mouth, and growling. "Nezuko!" Tanjiro tried moving; but Obani came down and elbowed him. "Your being to rough with him." Giyuu said. "Soften up." He told Obani. "No he's trying to interfere!" You stood up and walked over to him which caused him to immediately back away letting Tanjiro go. Tanjiro broke the rope and ran to the porch. "Nezuko!" He yelled on the ground. "Come on you damn demon! It's a whole meal right in front of you! So eat up!" Nezuko was growling. She looked at him then snapped her neck away. "H-huh?!" Sanemi questioned. "What just happened?" Ubuyashiki asked. "The girl was shown blood but she turned away turning it down." One of his daughters explained. "Come on you damn demon! Eat me already!" You jumped onto the porch and kicked Sanemis legs out from under him then grabbing his shirt color and throwing him off the porch o to the ground. "What the fuck was that for?!" Sanemi yelled. You ignored him and turned to Nezuko. You unsheathed your sword mist coming from the cracks. "WAIT Y/N-SAN!" Tanjiro yelled. You ignored him and put the sword into Nezukos face. She looked at it eyes piercing. She tilted her head at it and her eyes softened. "Hmm? Hmm...hmmm?" She looked from the sword to you and back to the sword. She looked intrigued. "Nezy can you go back into the box for me and Tanjiro?" You asked using her nickname. You held a comforting smile. She pouted a little then quite literally shrunk and into the box. You sheathed your sword and looked to her then to Ubuyashiki . "Well? Is the trial done. She seems easily distracted and controlled." Ubuyashiki nodded. "Yes this proves Nezuko will not eat any humans." Ubuyashiki smiled. You hopped down from the porch and walked over to Kanae. "Come on. Aoi wants to give you a checkup." Kanae nodded and you helped her up. You weren't about to listen to Sanemi rant for 20 minutes. You helped Kanae back to the Butterfly Mansion and Aoi was at the door. "WHERE DID YOU TWO GO?!?" She demanded. "Don't worry your pretty little head about that." She blushed a bit at that. "Just get Kanae back into bed." She said face palming. "YOU IDIOT WE COULD BE PUNISHED BECAUSE OF YOU!" A voice yelled from down the road. "I'm sorry!" You heard Tanjiro's voice say. "Ugh another one?" Aoi pinched the bridge of her nose. "How many you got?" You asked her. "Ugh 3 now. One is a such a crybaby the other is a boar boy I'm not sure." She sighed. "Sounds like you got your hand full. Don't worry Tanjiro is a good kid." You reassured her. She crossed her arms. "Get your girlfriend into bed." You nodded and took Kanae to her bed. You set her down and turned to walk out but a rug came from your sleeve. "Y/n-Kun...please stay." She pleaded. You sighed and sat down and started to sing to her.

Kanae, a vision so rare,
Beauty beyond compare.
Graceful as a gentle dove,
Radiant like the stars above.

Oh Kanae, you shine so bright,
A breathtaking, wondrous sight.
In your presence, hearts take flight,
Your beauty's a guiding light.

"Ara~ when did you come up with that?" She smiled blushing. "I have time enough time on my hands." You smiled. Then a knock on the door. "Moshi~ Moshi?~"Shinobu's voice said from behind the door. "What?" You asked opening it. "Um....there's someone here for you. At the door." Shinobu said nervously. You nodded and headed to the door. Standing there was a man in a mask. He looked to be a swordsmith. "Mr Y/n. Coro...has passed. We want you to come to the swordsmith village to see him one last time." You nodded as he finished. "Ok I'll get the earplugs!" Aoi called from the hall. "No need Aoi! I don't need them." You heard her scurry down the hall. "Huh!?" She poked her head out from the hall. "Oh? Nobody told you?" You questioned. "Told me what?" She asked. "I used to do a bit of swordsmithing. So I don't need any earplugs or blindfold." You explained. "WAIT WHAT?! IF YOU WERE A SWORDSMITH WHY DO T YOU FORGE TOUR OWN BLADE?!" She cried. You shrugged. "I don't have the patience." You said walking out the door leaving Aoi shocked. You walked down the path when suddenly Tanjiro came out. "Y/n-San! Where are you going?" He asked smiling. "Hey Tanji I'm going to the swordsmith village to see an old friend off." Tanjiro looked at you for a moment before looking a bit sad. "I'm sorry for your loss Y/n-San." You smiled. "I see your nose has gotten better." You ruffled his hair and he laughed.  "T-Tanjiro..." you said looking In his eyes. Tanjiro looked at you and looked a bit nervous. "Yes?" He asked. "Here." You handed him a dragon notebook. "Your father gave this to me. When we first met. I went through and erased my writings. It was all random stuff in it. I'm giving it to you. I-I'm sorry about your family." Tanjiro looked like he was going to cry. "T-thank you." He hugged you. You hugged him back. "Also is there something you can do for me?" You asked. He nodded. "Of course!" You smiled. "Can you get Kanao out of her shell?" You asked. He nodded. "I'll try!" He said smiling. "Thank you." With that you and the swordsmith headed to the swordsmith village. When the mansion was out of sight you heard someone in the woods. You whirled around and unsheathed your sword. The mist seemed to dance around the cracks. Then a man in a white hat a black shirt and white pants came out. "You...your Muzan!" You said clutching your sword harder.

"Yes...and I'm here to turn you into a demon."

A/n: should have done "heehere" instead of "here."
