Chapter Thirty - The End

Tanjiro's pov

"So this is the place..?" I asked and Sanemi nodded "yes.. we just have to get in somehow.. or.. maybe contact someone i-" before he could finish the sentence, a bunch of people surrounded us with guns.

We raised our hands up, me almost accidentally dropping Yuichiro in the process. "What do you want here?! Who are you?!" One of the guys yelled and the other joined "are you infected?! Huh?! Are you?!"

"No we're not! We are looking for a shelter! The military shelter that should be around here!" Sanemi yelled out and one of the guys put his gun down, looking at us more closely before stopping to look at Muichiro "his shoulder, what's wrong with it"

Muichiro backed away slightly, clearly scared and not knowing what to say. "It's nothing! He's just hurt! It's not an infection!" Mitsuri yelled out but before she could get any closer to Muichiro, two guys grabbed him and looked at his shoulder more closely.

"Take him with you, I'll go with others and lead them to the shelter '' one of the guys said and Mitsuri's eyes widened with joy "wa-wait so are we at the right place?! Are we safe now?!"

"We'll see if you little friend is infected, if not, you are, if yes, it means that you tried to put us and everyone else in there in danger.. which means that you will get kicked out, if you refuse, we'll kill you"

My eyes widened as I looked at Muichiro who was just standing there, frozen in fear. "No no, don't panic Tanjiro, he'll be fine, he's not infected" I thought to myself and gave Muichiro a reassuring smile in hopes of calming him down a bit.

"Now take them" they all nodded and led us away from Muichiro towards the entrance to the shelter. Once the door opened, my eyes widened. People were happily walking around, eating their food and playing with their kids.

I looked over at others, the same facial expression of shock and joy planted on their faces. "We'll show you your room, it's a bit overcrowded here so you might have to be with someone else too later on, but for now you'll be alone, just in case"

We all nodded and followed behind him. Both Mitsuri, Nezuko and Kotetsu were sobbing out of joy and.. I couldn't blame them, I was so happy too, so happy that we are finally safe, struggling to hold my tears back as well.

He opened the door to one of the rooms and showed us a small but cozy room with two beds and one smaller matrace on the floor together with a small table and four chairs.

"We'll give you clean clothes soon, showers and restrooms are at the end of the hallway on the right" he said before closing the door. I sat Yuichiro down on the matrace and he asked "Muichiro is going to be fine.. right?"

I nodded "of course he'll be fine, don't worry" I gave him a reassuring smile and he smiled at me as well.

…

After a while, all of us were all in clean clothes, nicely washed and comfortable in our beds. Yuichiro, Mitsuri and Nezuko were peacefully asleep, Sanemi was helping around others around the shelter and I was brushing Kotetsu's hair, who was slowly falling asleep in my arms as well.

I was still thinking about Muichiro, it has been a while since they took him and I haven't heard of him. Suddenly, Kotetsu looked at me and asked "Tanjiro..?"
