Third Person:
What's going on? Are those two fighting, maybe? What should I do? It's bad manners to eavesdrop! But if they're fighting, I should try to mediate.
Nezuko gasps as she sees Managi slap the young boy. He falls to the ground and Managi picks him up by the collar.
Nezuko: Cut it out!
Nezuko ran up to them.
Nezuko: What do you think you're doing? Take your hands off him!
Managi: Your voice is very annoying. Who are you?
Nezuko: How could you do that to a little kid? Take your hands off of him!
Managi: You take your hands off me.
Managi slams his elbow into Nezuko's stomach. She falls to the ground coughing.
Managi: You're quite weak. I don't have time to deal with weak beings that bring me no benefit. ..Huh. I'm getting a strange vibe from that box. A demon's presence, perhaps? What's inside? That box there?
Nezuko smacks his hand.
Nezuko: Don't you dare touch it!
Managi looks at his hand then back at the piece of cloth in his hand.
She took him.
Nezuko: Are you all right?
Boy: L-Let go of me!
Nezuko: You must be dizzy. That's dangerous!
Boy: Get out of here! I'm not... I'm not giving that key to anyone! Not even if you torture me! No way! One more time and it's going to break down!
Managi: Have you been through torture training?
Nezuko and the boy gasp. Managi had walked over to them.
Managi: Even most grown-ups can't take it. You'd never last. I see that you're stupid beyond belief. So what if it breaks down? Just make another one. How many people do you think will perish while you drone on and on about trivial matters? That's what it means to obstruct a Hashira in his duty. A Hashira's time is worth far more than time spent by you people. If you just think a little, you'll eventually that, won't you? Swordsmith can't fight. You can't save lives. Because making weapons is all you're good for. Come on. The key. Remember your place whenever you take action. Since you're not a baby anymore.
(Don't listen to this yapper)
Nezuko slaps his hand, again.
Managi: It didn't hurt the first time.
Nezuko: I just... I don't why but... I can't stand you! What is it? Tact, maybe? You have no tact, and you're cruel!
Managi: This isn't cruel. You...
Nezuko: You're not wrong! I admit that what you're saying is mostly true, and is probably not wrong! But being a swordsmith, is an important vital job!
Hanganezuka was listening from behind a tree.
Nezuko: Swordsmiths have amazing skills that are totally different than ours! Because the fact is, if we didn't have them to forge our swords. We couldn't do anything, could we? Swordsmen and swordsmiths need each other! We're all fighting the same battle! Day in and day out, each in our own way, we're fighting—
Managi: I don't have the time to listen to you.
Managi smacks her in the side of her neck.
To be continued...
