The next night
Little (Y/N) had kept herself awake while laying on her futon, after her papa tucked her in but said he had to go for just a few hours. But only leave mini Hantengu to watch over her until they return.
Since then, she hasn't been able to sleep, not after having seen that horrible nightmare. Little (Y/N) wishes none of them have to go or at least have Miss Belle come and sleep in the room. Unfortunately it was no from Sekido, having that cow was big no no, so she couldn't sleep without any company.
Heard crying from outside of her room, quickly got out of bed and rushes to see if Hantengu was okay.
The frightened demon tried to cry silently while sitting on the couch, having to babysit scared him if something goes wrong with no protection.
She approached behind him, "grandpa?" She said it made him scream. Watch him running behind the couch, peek out seeing the child demon wide awake.
"Child, don't do that again, please." He said but still sobbing from her surprise approached. While she looked at him being frightened as she was, decided to sit down on the couch.
"I'm sorry.... I couldn't sleep and I want to know if you were okay." She said softly, didn't move because of how much her father's main body, also grandpa, was sensitive and frightened as a bunny. But she wasn't stupid to notice their tongues were engraved symbols of their role as anger, sorrow, pleasure and joy.
His tongue was a symbol of fear. Just like her dad and uncles but not her? That kinda bothers her unless she awakens her blood demon art once she completes her flight training.
Hearing the fear demon whimpering as he moves closer to the little demon, "I'm fine." He replied then climbed into her soft hair. It was way comfortable as a feather plus she didn't have any horns like himself or his counterparts. She was too special.
"Can you tell me a bedtime story?" the curious demon asked for mini Hantengu as he shivered but still sobbing but nodded at her request. Soon enough both of them headed to her bedroom.

Zohakuten approached the house, after difficult missions. He was forced to be fused. Hatred all mortals for the reasons that his main creator was meant for, slaughtering the enemies. As a debit for being given a chance to fight back.
But now, his purpose is to protect not only Hantengu but the little demon he grew fond of.
Beside witnessing how the rest of the counterparts treat her with actual love, care, supportive, and acceptance of what she is. He first didn't like her because of how she consumed mortal food groups, being too kind, having the others gone soft, and for....being much of the opposite demon. Plus he dislikes how she sucker Sekido and Urogi on keeping the barn creature.
After being kind over his main creator and seeing how she gave him comfort while traveling to find a new home.
But still weakling in his eyes.
As he opened the door, heard soft snores coming from the demon child's room. Headed towards there, softly open it as he peek but see both her and Hantengu sleeping on her pillow.
Everything seemed fine as he closed the door then headed somewhere else.
His point of view; the kid was too innocent for anything and people.

Dawn approached the mountains, shining the lives of the forest creatures, flowers awakened with pebbles opening its beauty.
Then the little demon eagle woke up, but tired still. Felt the heat from the curtains shielding her bedroom.
Noticed her grandpa was gone, meaning somewhere a darker room, got up from her bed and started doing her chores.
As she carefully walked towards the corner of the wall, with rope attached to it. Pull as it opens a hidden door and quickly jump into it.
Outside, with the bushes were shaking revealed the clever demon eagle as she hurried to the barn, her cow friend was barely waking up until she moos loudly while little (Y/N) was running towards the hay sacks.
She quickly picks up two of them and hurries to Miss Belle's stable she dumped while the friendly cow walks towards it then begins to eat it.
Little (Y/N) smiled then looked out through the barn entrances of the forest and how bright this day is. After moving, she misses going to the village for adventure, but still does it.
What she craved was; finding her very own friend. Someone that didn't think she mattered what species she is, from what her dad and uncles explained to humans.
They fear them, then the other enemies called Demon Slayer have the tools to kill any demons at sight, no matter what.
That made her curious on why the world is cruel if both different species are meant to be the enemy.
There weren't any demon children like herself, just adults.
It's what sadden her, no children to play with. Or even go out and meet other demons except Akaza-san.
Little (Y/N) pet Miss Belle affectionately, then headed back to the hidden bush in case one of her uncles or Zohakuten might find her missing from her bedroom.

Zohakuten was sleeping on the couch with Hantengu, it was still daylight out there. But a blanket covered him and mini Hantengu, it was little (Y/N).
Smile how her uncle was sleeping peacefully. But also innocent too, she thought of something.
Maybe she could ask him if he would play with her.....maybe once he wakes up within 11 hours until night.

Night has been set, Zohakuten was waking up but grumpy. Noticed their was blanket on the floor with cups and plate set too?
But that what got him confused, that sneaky cow had be laying on the ground with an flower hat on it head.
He snarls on what did this barn animal doing in the house, again.
"Evening, uncle Zohakuten!" Little (Y/N) said with smile on her face but had an wooden basket with her as she sit down almost next to him, "wanna some tea with me and Miss Belle?" Asked with happiness while Belle was looking at the little hatred demon with dead eye glanced.
Zohakuten scoffs, just as he was about to say no. But see her happy expression along her shining (e/c) eyes glow of innocent, like too much innocence.
He grunting but sit down meaning he is joining in this childish play.
Plus he spotted mini Hantengu was wearing mini flower hat like that cow.
That made the little demon all happy, soon she began to talk about what they are doing while Zohakuten just stared at her.
'... Now I can see why the others were soft on you, kid...already an rare demon. Just be lucky that the Lord doesn't find bout you...then I wouldn't like it seeing you gone.'
Zohakuten pick up the tea cup, playing along the tea party. Just hope no one will find out about this.




Taisho Era Secret
-Little (Y/N) tried to eat the hay, she spit it out immediately after the taste wasn't in the food group.

-Hantegu favorite her absolute, but doesn't like if someday she'll be fighting the villians that hurt him. He loved her too much to see his granddaughter be clouded by evilness.

-None of the clones ever find anything suspicious about finding out their eagle demon been feeding the cow every morning. Just thought one of them had left hay into the Belle's stable pen.

-Akaza tried to eat human food, he throw up. Still doesn't get how the child was able to eat anything human foods almost everyday. Admired her strong stomach for it.
