We've reached some woods, through the woods, we see a large mansion of sorts.

'What fascinating architecture people use here's

I think in my head as I stare up at the large building.

"There's a smell of blood.."

Is all I catch of what tanjiro said, which throws me off guard. This place seems a whole lot more creepy now.

"I can't smell anything- but can you hear a sound coming from over there?"

"Sound?"

It seems tanjiro can understand some English but not really speak it, surprising how many people hear can understand and speak English.

I hear some ruffling and worried trembling and turn around to see two kids hugging each other looking petrified. I frown at their little faces.

"Kids.."

"What's going on with them?"

Tanjiro tried walking forward to ask, but they just flinch back afraid. I decide to try to slowly walk up to the kids with a soft, sincere smile.

"Kids.. are you alright dears?"

They hear my voice, though they can't understand my words they understand my intentions aren't to hurt them.

"You're alright now sweet dolls, just tell me what's wrong."

They look at me, then tanjiro, tanjiro looks down at me and follows my movements and crouched next to me as well.

"Look! A sparrow!"

He shows them zenitsu bird thing and they calm down a bit more.

"What happened? Is that over there your house?"

They tremble

"No.. it's not.. it the home.. of the monster!"

"Of the monster?"

Tanjiro says something in a puzzled tone, repeating what they said.

"Our older brother was captured by the monster. We were traveling during the night and the monster came, but it ignored us and took our only brother away."

"The monster entered the house over there?"

"Yeah."

"Don't worry, I'll defeat the monster and get your brother.."

Zenitsu raises his hand over his ear, looking at the house

"Do you.. guys hear that? What's that sound.. it sounds like.. a drum?"

"I can't hear anything."

I reply, my soft mid-transatlantic accent rings as I stand up, looking around

"Me neither.."

Suddenly, a window door of the second floor to the mansion opens, and a guy falls out.

I gasp, as quick as my reactions can, my telekinesis stops the guy from hitting the ground just barely and inch above it.

I drop him softer than he would've hit the ground and tanjiro covers the kids eyes, then quickly runs to the man.

"Are you alright?!"

He talks to the guy as I affirm the kids are firm and to stay calm, a loud groan comes from the house. I grimace, brows knitting together in concern.

Tanjiro looks up, the guy in his arms is dead.

"Is this.. your brother?"

The kid nods no

"No.. our brother wears yellowish brown clothes.."

I think I understand that the man isn't their brother, I sigh.

'That's a relief..'

"Zenitsu! Let's go inside!"

Tanjiro says of Zenitsu, Zenitsu just whimpers in fear

"I see. I understand."

Tanjiro walks away all angry, zenitsu then clings onto him

"Don't act so scary!!"

He puts the box he carried on his back down, which carried Nezuko, and gave it to the kids.

"Protect this box okay? If anything happens what's inside will protect you. Don't let anything happen to the box."

Tanjiro then stands and looks to me.

"Y/N... are you coming?"

Zenitsu looks to me, and gesture to the house and I get it

"I- I suppose I.. should.."

Tanjiro nods and I begin following him inside and zenitsu cowers behind us.
