After some running, you guys came across another demon slayer.

"Hey!" You yelled out to him, and he turned around frightened and sighed.

"Are you the hashira?" He asked you 3.

"I'm Y/n Rengoku, Mizunoto rank demon slayer." I introduced myself. "This is Tanjiro Kamado and Inosuke Hashibira."

"Damn it, why cant they send in a hashira?! If they keep sending in Mizunotos we will eventually all be wiped out."

"OI, DONT UNDERESTIMATE US YOU WEAKLING!" Inosuke said grabbing the boy by his hair. You grabbed him by his bicep and pulled him back, allowing the demon slayer boy to explain the situation.

He came here with 9 different demon slayers, and suddenly they all started attacking each other, while he was the only one to survive.

After a while, a strange sound came from behind you.

A demon slayers corpse emerged from the fog, and was about to stab you. Before you could react Inosuke kicked it away from you sending it back.

Soon, more and more kept appearing, and the 4 of you managed to dodge their attacks. 

"Will this ever stop, damn it!" You said as you kicked one of them in the face.

"Y/n, be more gentle with the corpses!" Tanjiro said.

"Screw them!" Inosuke said, as he threw one across the area, but it just came back.

Suddenly, something clicked in Tanjiros head. He came to a realization that something was controlling the corpses. Like puppets.

He slashed the threads that controlled their bodies, and you did the same with the ones who attacked you.

You looked over at Inosuke and noticed tiny spiders crawling up his arm, and suddenly a thread pulling him. Before he could get pulled away, you slashed the threads letting him free.

"I don't need your saving!" He yelled.

"Oh yeah?" You looked behind him, and there was a demon slayer about to attack him, but you saved him by jumping  over him and throwing the demon slayer on a branch, leaving him to hang on there. 

There was practically stars flying around the boars head.

Afterwards, you looked up to see a demon standing on threads. It looked like a child.

"Stay away from my family." He said. "Mother will kill you all anyway. Like she did with the rest."

You were angry at them. You dissapeared mid thin air, jumping over to slice the demons head off.

"Fire breathing, total concentration: First form." You said as you threw an attack at his neck. "Unknowing fire!"

Did I do it?

When the flames dissapeared, you noticed the demon wasn't there anymore. He dissapeared mid air.

Damn it

You started falling back down, closing your eyes, and opening them when you realised someone  cought you. It was Inosuke. He jumped over to you to catch you and got back down eventually.

"You saved me again!" You smiled at him. He started at you for a moment before dropping you on the floor to fall on your butt. "Owie."

"DONT THINK YOU CAN BE BETTER BY SAVING ME TWICE!" HE LAUGHED 

You got back up "Where did he come from anyway?"

"He probably isn't the one doing the puppet thing!" Tanjiro said.

"I'll find the demon!" Inosuke said. Soon he pinned his swords to the ground.

"Beast breathing.. 7th form. Spatial Awareness!!" he said.

"Did you find it?" You said as you cut the threads of the demon slayers attacking you and Inosuke.

...

"Found it!"

"Good job Inosuke!" You said patting his pig head, making him fall back, and quickly stand back up. 

"You found it?" Tanjiro asked.

"Yeah! I'm picking up a demon from over there!" He said pointing his sword in the direction.

"What do we do about the demon slayers, this wont stop till tommorow!" You groaned.

"I'll take them on! You guys run!" Murata said.

"What kind of talk is this Mr. Piss-My-Pants?" Inosuke mocked him.

"I NEVER PISSED MY PANTS, NO ONES TALKING TO YOU STUPID BOAR!"

"Thank you Murata! Let's go guys!." Tanjiro said as we started running off, while he dragged Inosuke by his mask.

"LET GO OF ME!"

"JUST GO AWAY YOU PIG!"

"ILL PUNCH YOU AS SOON AS IM BACK!"

Some time passed, and you continued running to the direction.

"Damn it, I'm gonna punch that guy if its the last thing I do!" Inosuke said.

"Don't talk like that." Tanjiro said

"HE CALLED ME A STUPID BOAR MONJIRO!"

"ITS TANJIRO!"

"SILENCE!" You yelled at the two, fianlly earning some quietness.

"So, were going the right way?" Tanjiro asked.

"My senses never lie." Inosuke answered. "BUT WHATS UP WITH THESE ANNOYING THREADS?!"

"Im guessing we're getting closer to the demon."

Soon a girl emerged from the fog. She was frightened. A sword in her left hand, and a dead demon slayer in her right.

"N-No! Don't come any closer!" She cried out "Summon someone of higher rank! Or else.. everyone will get killed!"
