The Wizard Demon Slayer

Chapter 2

THE NEXT MORNING

'Sunshine you ready?' Miko asked tanjiro as he was waiting for him outside, tanjiro nodded 'yes miko.' Miko hummed 'alright let's go, bye saburo-san! thank you for letting us stay' he said as he and tanjiro bowed in gratitude, saburo waved the two off 'no problem just be careful you two!'

The siblings both smiled and nodded before climbing the mountain. It was a silent yet peaceful walk for the two, the path was covered in snow yet it wasn't as cold for them, 'so tanjiro, you think we're going to be tackled by a bunch of little cuties' miko asked, tanjiro chuckled softly 'you will be getting most of the tackling otōto, the others just love your hugs which i can't say the same, your always warm during winter and even in the summer or spring you tone down to a cool temperature.'

Harry faked pouted 'so you onlu hug me for my heat or cool', tanjiro laughed 'yes of course we do, that's why we give you plenty of affection' he responds sarcastically. Harry was going to say something when he saw tanjiro froze, his expression changing from playful seriousness to a fearful look, without a word he rushed up the mountain, leaving harry in a short state of shock before he ran after him.

'TANJIRO?! what's going on?!' miko yelled as he ran till he was beside tanjiro's, 'I SMELL BLOOD!' he responded in panic. Miko gasps before he to sniff the air and nearly tripped over himself, he too could smell it and it was so strong. Miko ran with so much speed he passed by tanjiro 'HARRY WAIT!' tanjiro yelled out but harry didn't listen.

He heard tanjiro mention his real name, but he didn't care, usually when his real name was said he knew it was only in a deep situation, yet he couldn't bring himself to even stop and wait. He had to see if everyone was ok and hope the blood was just from a small injury, he ran for what felt like hours, yet he knew it was barely five minutes.

As he reached the top of the trail, he saw their home in the distance and ran quicker towards it, immediately he skirted to a stop, freezing in terror and shock as he saw the sight Infront of him. He barely registered tanjiro's scream as he and tanjiro rushed forward, him to nezuko's bloody body holding a equally bloody rouka, the snow under them dyed the dark liquid, blood was everywhere, the walls, floors, doors, and even the damn ceiling.

His sibling's empty eyes stared back at him, their bloodied bodies limp and not moving a muscle. Mom was against the wall with hanako behind her, he could see she tried to protect her. he whimpered as he thought of their screams, his mind was a mess and he was so out of it, Miko didn't notice he fell onto his knees, the blood dirtying his clothing.

'HARRY! NEZUKO'S ALIVE! I FEEL A PULSE' harry snapped out of his empty and daze state to snap his head towards tanjiro, he saw him lifting nezuko onto her back. Harry couldn't help but sigh in relief, his heart still feeling grief, but it was lighter and if they can get help for nezuko immediately then she could live.

Him and tanjiro quickly ran down the mountain, 'h-hang on nezuko, your big brother and Miko will save you, I promise' tanjiro whimpered in desperation. Miko was running beside nezuko, his eyes staring into nezuko's limp body.

Suddenly as the two were running there was growls that became louder each second, Miko immediately noticed and looked to nezuko. she was twitching and she seemed to be waking up, it would have been a good thing if he had sensed that she wasn't the same, suddenly he heard growling from her, and she snapped her eyes open.
