||The Start||

"Five times!?"

You awoke as the kakashi set you down in your bed... You woke up once again. You really, really didn't want to be awake right now. You want to sleep and frankly you wished someone would knock you out and into a coma for a month.

"I gotta take this five times a day!? And I gotta keep taking it for three months?! It has such a horribly bitter taste too! I'm not gonna want to eat a single thing after that!"

Now that you think about it, the screaming probably woke you up, not the kakashi.

You roll over, forcing yourself to move and that's when you noticed that you were no longer in a separate room. You were in a hospital-like room again, but with Zenitsu, Inosuke and Tanjiro.

Zenitsu kept crying, complaining about the taste of the medicine while a small girl next to him tired her best to calm him down and make him feel better and quiet down. Aoi which you hadn't realized had come in the room, started yelling at him too, threatening him with restraints.

"Oh for goodness sake." Aoi finally sighed, walking over to the other side of the room and giving up on him.

"Zenitsu, what happened? Are you alright? So you came up the mountain after all?" Tanjiro asked him, bombarding him with questions while smiling at the smaller figure who looked like he had shrunk.

"Tanjiro..." And with that, he proceeded to cry again, now clinging onto the kakashi that was carrying him on his back. "It was terrible Tanjiro! Just awful! Me and Y/N got bit by these icky spiders! And it really hurt! That other girl's been yelling at me ever since I arrived at this place also! I HATE MY LIFE!"

"Hey, stop crying on me, I've got nothing to do with this." The kakashi mumbled.

"I'm glad you're okay." You told Zenitsu, rolling back around and deciding to try to sleep again. That was until you noticed Inosuke, he hadn't made one remark or said anything this whole time and that seemed unusual for the loud boar.

So, gently you placed your hand right above his chest, barely touching him and waiting to feel something. You sighed in relief when you felt breathing and you moved your hand away.

It seemed like both Zenitsu and Inosuke were well, even though Inosuke was sleeping, or just being quiet he was at least breathing. And since Tanjiro and Nezuko were well too, you could let yourself sleep.

Or maybe not, they were all too loud anyway.

"Where are Inosuke and Murata?"

Who was Murata? How come Tanjiro knew so many more people than you?

"I don't know anyone named Murata..." Zenitsu mumbled in thought.

"Inosuke's right here." You state, pointing the the the crazy boar masked guy who may or may not have been sleeping next to you.

"... He's been here all this time? And I didn't notice!?"

"Ugh." The kakashi groans, apparently focusing more on Zenitsu's boogers being wiped on his uniform than Tanjiro. He was distracted enough to drop him but it seemed like he was alright.

"Inosuke... I'm glad you're safe... I'm so relieved, sorry I couldn't rescue you." Tanjiro cried.

You forced yourself to sit up, scooting to the edge of your bed. Unfortunately you weren't able to work up enough willpower to stand up yet but you planned on doing so.

"It's okay, don't worry about it." Inosuke hoarsely replied, surprising you at how raspy his voice was. No wonder he wasn't saying anything!

"Your voice... is that really you?" Tanjiro asked.
