Chapter one

Sabito panted and a demon's scent entered his nose, Makomo also smelt it and unsheathed her blade. Suddenly, a vast hulking monster with olive-green skin, yellow eyes with cross-hatch-shaped pupils and blood-red fingernails came out and laughed. 

"Oh, you two must be Sakonji Urokodaki's disciples, the mask is how I figured it out; you know I've eaten 48 people at the count, and 11 of them were his disciples." Makomo's eyes turned red and she charged towards the demon, swinging her katana angrily. 

Her blows were unplanned, and the hand demon grasped her hand, Makomo was now scared. Suddenly, out of nowhere a blast of water came out and sprayed the demon everywhere.

The hand demon didn't care and stretched his hand to rip Makomo's hands, but suddenly his whole body flammed up, and the hand demon yelped in pain as spikes suddenly came out of his body. Sabito gave Makomo a stare and they both used this chance to cut off the head of the hand demon.

Makomo was happily cheering while Sabito was questioning where the water came from. "Was it another demon who wanted us dead?" He questioned himself, refusing to ask Makomo and spoil her enthusiasm. Sabito heard a sound and turned this way.

The girl was so peculiar that he was in a daze when she waved a water portal and jumped in. Seconds after, Tanjiro rushed after and caught both of them and grinned at the sight that both of them were still alive. 

Sabito was still in confusion but put the strange appearance behind him and checked Tanjiro as he was bleeding very badly, suddenly he smelled something even more revolting than the hand monster, whipped around and saw a black wing.

He immediately recognised it was the same demon who saved Makomo and him. He dashed to the forest, ignoring the calls of confusion, Makomo followed, leaving Tanjiro sitting on the rock resting. 

Sabito couldn't find the mysterious demon, and couldn't hide his disappointment, Makomo followed and asked him what he was doing, and Sabito said nothing so she wouldn't start worrying that he was having illusions.

They heard a sudden splash of water and abruptly remembered that they left severely wounded Tanjiro behind, They raced back and saw that Tanjiro had fallen asleep, When they sprinted closer they noticed that Tanjiro had no more scars except a big one on his head. 

Makomo stood there shocked, while Sabito assumed it was the demon who saved them had healed Tanjiro. They woke up Tanjiro after the sun started to rise, and Sabito asked Tanjiro if he saw anything suspicious.

Tanjiro considered for a second and said that he heard his mother's lullaby song she used to sing to him and some water sounds and he fell asleep with the feeling of relaxation. After he woke up his wounds were all healed. Sabito considered this for a second and also concluded that it must've been the demon who helped him and Makomo, again.

Tanjiro stared at the sun, and shaded his eyes with one hand from the beaming sun, climbing its way slowly from the mountains up, up and up. Slowly, and gently, "At least it means that there will be no more demons about for now . . ." Sabito thought silently. The tired threesome slowly went back to Sakonji Urokodaki's house.

Sakonji Urokodaki san was overjoyed that they survived, and offered them udon, and kimchi. None of them had the appetite after they discussed how many of Sakonji Urokodaki's students were killed by the hand demon. A week flew by like a blink of an eye and in the morning Sakonji Urokodaki woke the three students up and led them to the front of the house.

"Welcome back!" The black-haired twin announced happy, with a slight smile. "Congratulations, being safe and sound is better than anything else!" The white-haired twin finished. Tanjiro looked around and counted the number of people left. 1 . . . 2 . . . 3 . . . 4 . . . 5 . . . 6! "Only six?" Tanjiro was shocked "There used to be like 20 or so people before!"

Sabito hears wings flapping. He wondered if the demon had come back and curiously left the presentation in search of what the noise was. "Am I the only one who hears this?" He curiously asked himself, hoping that he could figure it out. 

"I'm not mad neither am I creating illusions, right?" He hoped that was true, he saw the demon again, but this time she was in the shade ready to take flight.

"Wait!" He screams, hoping she will come back, but she doesn't look back, she flies towards the shade and twirls around, and a hurricane of feathers engulfs her, and when the storm stops, she disappears. 

Meanwhile, Makomo was witnessing a battle between Genya and Tanjiro, and she wanted to go to Sabito to ask him something but realised he was not there, she sighed and went back to the fight.

After the fight finished Makomo and Tanjiro went back to Sakonji Urokodaki's house, Makomo offered to run ahead and give Tanjiro more treatment for his head and ran ahead. Tanjiro slowly walks, his only supporter is the long stick he holds, when he isn't far away from Sakonji Urokodaki's house, he stops and rests. 

Suddenly the door flies open and Nezuko walks by with her head high, and a bamboo as her muzzle. Tanjiro stands still in shock for a few seconds, and when he finally processes what happened
