"Tanjiro.. if you want to save your big sister Nezuko, become one of us." The man in front of him mused as he lifted his chin up with the tip of his finger.
The only thing he could do in that moment was nod as his body began to shake in fear at the...
I didn't run away.. I came to see my sister. Is she my sister? Why.. don't I.. remember her. Her name... Nezuko.. was she kind? Was.. she a good sister.. to me?
Why.. don't I remember anything!
"Tanjiro! What the hell are you doing?" The demon girl with the ball asked. "You're disobaying Muzan!"
The boy pouted. And waved his arms, and hugged the demon girl. "Please don't tell him! Don't get Muzan mad! I don't want him dissipointed in me!" Tanjiro mumbled.. hugging the demons legs while looking up.
Susamaru couldn't hide her blush. This.. child.. she thought.
"Fine.. but you're going to have to go to Muzan... You know.. Muzan told us to kill the woman with the bun.." Susamaru said, patting the boys head.
Tanjiro's eyes lit up. "Can I do it? Will Muzan forgive me.. this could be an excuse!"
Nezuko couldn't be more suprised, she protectively stood in front of Tamayo, Yushiro close behind.
"Brother Wait! You're not a demon! Don't do this!" Nezuko cried. "They want to cure demons!"
The other demon spoke, his weird eyes shining. "Ahh.. that's where you're wrong.. Tanjiro.."
There was a sudden red flash, and Tanjiro kicked Tamayo's head off.
"Lady Tamayo! You monster..!" Yushiro yelled. "She'll regenerate and kill you!"
Tanjiro smirked. The little boy was not to be underestimated.. you could see the blood lust in his eyes. "She's dead.. I killed her... Big Muzan... will be happy now-"
Nezuko knocked Tanjiro out. "You still need to work on you're reflexes Tanjiro.. for a demon.. I'm not impressed."
The two demons smirked. They knew what was going on.
Like he said earlier, he'd do anything to make Muzan proud. But killing... that was something unexpected and miscalculated. Maybe.. this boy.. was going to finally become a feared demon like them!
They couldn't stop smiling at the thought. "Yushiro, do you have an extra basket-"
"Nezuko.. why did you do that?" A child's voice said.
Nezuko immediatly turned around to face Tanjiro's face looking at her. "Tanjiro! Explain now! Why did you kill her!"
Tanjiro's face whited.. "I.. I'm sorry.. I-"
Yushiro cut in. "He's probably acting-"
"Nope! Tanjiro sometimes loses control of his powers and bloodlust.. all thanks to Muzan, he hasn't killed anyone until now.." Susamaru explained smiling and laughing at the end. "I'm proud of him!"
Tanjiro's face sadened. "But.. I didn't want.. to.. get.. my hands.. dirty..."
A black flash shone behind Tanjiro and a hand was put on his tiny shoulder, then the figure picked him up, and put him against his chest.
"It's alright Tanjiro... you're papa's here to help you.. but after, you're going to serve some harsh punishments for running away.. but I'll loosen it a bit because you got you're first kill!"
Nezuko's face widened and lost all colour. After, it turned to hatred. Pure hatred. "No way.."
It was none other then, Muzan Kibutsuji. And this man.. carrying Tanjiro in his arms smirking.. called himself.. Tanjiro's father!
