Kimetsu no Yaiba: The Stars and Cosmos Arc

Introducing the Hashira

Once everything settled, Ubuyashiki turns to the twins once more. His warm smile still on his face.

"Since you two have arrived, I will have you stay in the quarters that the Corps have cared for since your mother was here last. You will stay at my home until the battle ends." Ubuyashiki says and the twins nod.

They bow to him.

"Thank you for your hospitality." They say in unison.

Waving his left hand, two female servants are quick to appear from the inside of the house and bow to Ubuyashiki.

"Please, follow us." They say and begin to walk on to the engawa, guiding the twins to the right of the house. Stepping onto the engawa, the twins follow behind the women, as they were leaving the obvious feel of multiple eyes continued following them until they turned a corner and the feeling disappeared.

After a short time, the servants guided them to a ryokan telling them to remove their shoes at the door and asking if they would like something to eat.

"Tempura should be fine for me." Aicha tells them as she removes her bag and sits on the cushion in the tatami room.

"Just a big bowl of ramen." Amara includes to their order and sits across the table from her sister.

The servants nod then bow, closing the door behind them. Once their footsteps were gone, the twins looked around the new area.

"Very nice place. I'm surprised mother hadn't told us that we would receive our own quarters." Aicha mentioned and Amara nods in agreement.

"Maybe she wanted us to figure it out on our own? This is our journey we have to embark on." The older twin comments.

"True."

There was suddenly knocks coming from the shoji doors behind Aicha. Raising a brow to who that could be, Amara stands to her feet and walks over to the shoji door, slightly opening it to find pink and green hair.

"Eh?" Amara utters then her eyes follow up until she finds the beaming features of a young woman. Her green eyes were literally pulsing with heart eyes and her excitement could be seen from a mile away.

"Hello! I'm Mitsuri Kanroji the Love Hashira! May we come in?" She says excitedly.

Amara's eyes looked to the left to see the butterfly woman from earlier and a tall man with scars making a ring on his forehead. He was blind Amara noticed, along with his prayer beads clanking on his left hand as he put his hands together.

"Namu-Amidabutsu." He utters quietly making Amara hum in thought.

"Ummmm, I guess you can come in?" Amara questioned and the pink haired woman squealed in excitement.

Amara allows the shoji door to open up more and all three came into their quarters. Aicha watches in interest as the three people came inside and made themselves comfortable at the chabudai.

Closing the shoji door, Amara walks over to her sister's side and sits next to her watching the three new guests bow before them.

"Hello, my name is Shinobu Kocho, the Insect Hashira. Pleased to meet you both." The butterfly woman introduced.

"Gyomei Himejima, the Stone Hashira. Blessings to you and your family." The large man bowed.

"I am Amara and this is my sister, Aicha." Amara introduced them and Aicha bowed to them.

"Well, the reason that we are here is that we became fascinated with your presence." Mitsuri explains and that makes the twins raise an eyebrow.

"Fascinated?" Aicha parrots.
