Butterfly Estate

"Father, are you going to get Mizu?" Sabito asked.

"Yes" Tanjiro replied and put on his haori.

"I'm coming with you" Sabito held Tanjiro's hand, stopping him from leaving.

"Sabito listen, now that we know Muzan is not dead and we have not known his existence for 17 years, he might have devoured many humans now and has gotten strong again. It's dangerous for you to come with me. Please stay here with your mother and make sure the whole village is safe. Don't worry about me, I have defeated so many Upper moons. I'll be fine" Tanjiro tapped Sabito's shoulders.

"Father, make sure to bring back Mizu safe"

"Tanjiro, be careful" Kanao said with a very soft voice.

Tanjiro smiled and ran as fast as he could to the beast estate.

Beast Estate

Inosuke lend his comfortable bed to the guy and Mizu was taking care of him, then a few moments later the guy finally regained his consciousness.

"Where.. where am i?"

"Oh you're awake now. Have this" Mizu offered the guy a tea made by her. The guy doubted whether to accept it or not. "don't worry, it's just a tea"

"Just drink it. It is very rare for this young beautiful Kamado to make a tea for someone. You must now consider yourself special" Inosuke interevened

The guy took the cup with respect and drank the tea. "It has a very unique taste and I can feel that it gives me energy. Thank you. And thank you too for saving me. It's such a shame to be a guy saved by a girl"

"Yeah you should be ashamed you weakling" Inosuke said

"Stop it Inosuke-san!"

"It's okay. It's true though, I admit I'm weak. By the way my name is Takeuchi Yoru. I'm just a son of a woodcutter and a village doctor. Nothing special"

"No one cares about your family background you wealking" Inosuke said and went to open the door for Tanjiro. He sensed Tanjiro's arrival.

"I'm honored to meet you Yoru-kun. By the way I'm Kamado Mizu. You don't need to be ashamed, I'm a skilled swordsman so it's just normal that I'm stronger than you"

"oh really? that's cool"

"Mizu, time to go home now" Tanjiro said.

He made an eyecontact with Yoru and suddenly quivers for having creepy thoughts for a second.

"who is this Mizu?" Tanjiro asked out of curiosity.

"He was the one who was attacked by a demon, Father. He is Takeuchi Yoru" Mizu replied.

"Oh, okay. It's good that you're safe, Yoru"

Yoru smiled. Tanjiro and Mizu went home then Inosuke put Yoru back to sleep. He explained that it's still dangerous for Yoru to go home so he let him stayed in the beast estate for 1 night.

Yoru's dream

It's dark. Very dark, and the wind is blowing so hard. Where is this place?

I look around the place and realized it is the Natagumo mountain. The wind suddenly stops and the place is now in complete silence. Then I heard rustles of leaves. It's like someone is getting near me.

"Douma.... Douma come home to me"

It was a strange voice I heard. I looked towards the direction of it then saw a very skinny kid, about half of my height. He was wrapped in a white blanket and he's very skinny. I could see his bones, his ribs, his very sharp jawline. I could tell he is a human who suffered from severe hunger and thirst. I pity him. But at the same I feel something is wrong about this.

"Are you okay?"

"Doma, come back to me. Come back to your father"

I wonder.... Is he talking to me? I looked around and I was the only one here so probably he's talking to me

"You're not my father and my name is Yoru"

"You ungrateful son!" The skinny weak kid went bigger and taller then it cut down my head using his barehands.

I woke up and grasped for air.

I realized it was just a dream. The most strange dream I had so far

"You okay boy?" The beast hashira Inosuke asked and offered Yoru a cup of water.

"Yes I am. Thank you Inosuke sama" Yoru immediately took the cup and drank the water in one go.

"Wow I love that. Say that again"

"pardon?"

"Call me. Call my name"

"Inosuke sama?"

"Yes yes I love that so much. I now accept you as my apprentice" Inosuke said with excitement and punched Yoru out of uncontrolled emotions. He was very happy being called Inosuke sama

"Oh, sorry sorry" Inosuke said and checked Yoru if there is any bone broken. Thankfully, there is none. "By the way you were sweating. Having a bad dream?"

"Yeah I did. It was very bad"

"Oh, the sun is now starting to rise. You should go home now your parents must be worried"

"Thank you so much for everything Inosuke san."

"yeah yeah, come back here later. Our first training starts today"

"uhmm. I still have to help my father..."

"Come back here later or I'll cut your throat"

"Yes sir!"

Yoru went home and explained everything to his parents. He also explained why he won't be present in the afternoon because Inosuke wanted to start the training that day. His parents is a huge fan of Demon slayers specifically Tomioka Giyuu. Most humans may not recognized demon slayers as something like heroes but the Takeuchi family has been saved by the previous hashiras countless times. They thought it would be better for Yoru to train and become a demon slayer so they let Yoru go for it.

After Yoru finished all his tasks, he headed to the beast estate but since Inosuke is not around yet, he killed his time by playing with the stones. Suddenly, he heard a huge bang at the back of the Beast estate so he went to see what happened then saw 2 demon slayers on training. One girl with a long black hair and small portion of gray hair both sides (like anna from frozen, but in this demon slayer, the gray portion are visible in both sides). She is Mizu. And a boy with medium-lengthed hair colored black and purple gradient from top to bottom, He is Sabito but Yoru still don't know who Sabito is. He observed their training silently.

"Breath of the serpent 2nd form, swirling serpentine!"

"Breath of the insect 4th form, dragonfly dance!"

Yoru's pupils widened. He was very amazed by the siblings great technique combination. Finally Inosuke arrived and he went near to Yoru without a notice.

"Amazing right? They're the strongest duo in the new generation demon slayers. The Kamado twins"

 The Kamado twins"
