Rengokus Demise (Rengoku demon au)

Last resort! (7)

Rengoku dragged himself through the town-square, carrying his body heavily as all the citizens glared at him. He could feel himself salivating at the sight of so many different meals...

Which one should I choose?

He rubbed the drool from his mouth, approching a healthy- looking female...

"Uhm... can I help you?"

She backed away from him, noting his werid clothing and strange look on his face.

"Food."
"What?"

Rengoku let out a loud growl, leaping foward and reaching his claws out for her. She squealed loudly- her blood curtling scream catching the attention of every passer by. The loud sound of the woman's terror echoed until it reached the outside of the village. Catching the searching slayers attention... Zenitsu raised his head up before all them, his acceptionally good hearing picking up on the frequent scream.

"You all heard that, right?" Zenitsu asked.

Tanjiro nodded, his mind darting at the different possibilities of what could've happened. Shinobu raised her head... watching as civilians began to flood the streets in a desperate rush to escape. She gripped her katana harshly, trying to calm her beating heart.

"Me, tanjiro, and zenitsu will go look at what happened... you four help the civilians!" Shinobu spat out.

She quickly rushed straight through the middle of the crowd, creating a pathway for zenitsu and Tanjiro to follow.

(Meanwhile... back with rengoku.)

Rengoku growled fustratedly as he squirmed his body around, something... or someone, was holding him back. The terrified woman sat on the ground, shaking as she stared at his monster-like state.

Who dare interrupt my feed?

He thought. Instinctively rengoku lunged foward, clawing at the air as his hunger grew stronger. The woman had grazed her palms, and the scent of her blood lingered in the air.

"Come to your senses!"

A female voice called out worriedly. Rengoku froze, his anger boiling at the force that had been restricting him. He turned around quickly, his eyes darting around the area for the hidden person, or strange entity that had held him back. But his gaze softened as he watched a veil of a flower wall spiral around him, and a smell that was sweet... and floral emerged from it.

What is... this?

He was so distracted he didn't even notice the woman sneak away. Slowly but surely, he felt the soft touch of hands glide up his shoulder. He snapped his head around instantly, his gaze meeting a woman with tied black hair, and a purple kimono. Behind her stood another boy, with green hair.

Their both demons, I can smell it..

He reaches foward- but before he can do anything... his consciousness slips away from the sweet, sweet smell. It overwhelmed his thoughts, and made him grow light headed.
