Chapter 6 -Infused-
-Infinity Train: Part 3-

The ropes are created by the demon who started it all... Enmu, the sleep demon. They have a special power which allows people to penetrate the dreams of those connected to them.

Tanjiro was about to get some water when another version of himself pulled him in, "Get up! They're attacking! This is a dream! A dream-"

"Nii-chan gimme the pickled radish" His brother smiled.

Nezuko crawled to him and headbutted him making herself bleed and tear up as she lit him on fire,

'It smells like Nezuko, it's her blood'

"My sister, what brings you here," Kylee said standing Lakira gripped onto her blade and so did Kylee, "Why must you put your hand on your blade? Do you not love me, your older sister?"

"I...I"

"Did a demon cut off your tongue?" the sister smirked

"I can't trust any demon who has eaten a living being even my own family!!" Lakira yelled sliding her blade out colliding swords with Kylee.

Their blades let them meet faces, "How dare you become a lowly demon, a demon of all things!"

"I was blessed with this lovely life. Immortality is what I dreamed of."

"You are not happy your eyes say the truth, and they say you are miserable!" Kylee snarled at Lakira and shoved Lakira as she cut her cheek,

"You are one to talk, I know you are suffering as well. More than me!" Lakira's eyes turned soft,

"Your right... I regret the life of a Demon Hunter" Kylee smiled and relaxed her eyes and her head fell off and rolled away. Lakira looked at the blade in her hand and frowned. She had done it, the hardest thing of a Hunter.

Lakira bowed down, "May god allow you into heaven even with the sins that you've committed. And may he be the one to guide you into the light," Lakira sighed and wiped her face and cleaned her blade then held it to her neck. Shivers ran up as she hesitated, "It's the only way. Killing family, even if they are a demon it's shameful. It's shameful!!" she yelled and took her final breath. She opened her eyes and saw her body, 'Is this what it's like to die... I thought death would be more peaceful, '

"Ahhaa" Lakira woke up in a cold sweat and looked towards Tanjiro and Rengoku, she stood up and Tanjiro looked at her with wide eyes, "What's going on!" Lakira asked,

"We were put to after they checked our tickets!" Lakira sniffed her ticket,

"I do smell a bit of demon" She looked around and looked at her rope that was torn,

"How about we cut the ropes..."

"I feel like cutting is like killing them..." As soon as Lakira said that Tanjiro told Nezuko to burn the ropes and he ran to Zenitsu and started shaking him and Nezuko from behind him huffed making him give her a pat.

"Tanjiro their not waking up, but they are," The girl swiped at Lakira but she dogged and hit her gut, making the girl fall.

"You guys showed up and now we can't have our sweet dreams. Hey if you're up I'll tell that man!!"

Lakira and Tanjiro's were full of kindness, they were true. Lakira's dream was terrifying but her 'unconsciousness area' was warm and the wind, it was protecting the woman there was invited into a safe haven just like Tanjiro's did.

Lakira knocked the others out and the sickly boy and the woman thanked them, "Tanjiro, let's go the others will wake up soon" Lakira opened the window and was hit with a toxic smell, "It reeks..." and Tanjiro stuck his head out,

"The demon's upwind... He's on the lead car" Lakira climbed out the window and got on top of the car, 'How could it have been sleeping when things were like this' Tanjiro thought as he followed Lakira's lead, "Nezuko, don't come up here!! It's dangerous, go wake up everyone!" the two started running along the top of the train and saw the demon who did everything,

"Ohh, you're awake? Good morning. I showed you" the demon pointed at Tanjiro, "A really nice dream. I could've shown you the demon who slaughtered your family you know? Next time, I should show you a dream of your father coming back to life," the demon frowned, "Poor, Lakira... having to kill your sister, but I had no control over you... your more intact then I thought"

"I won't forgive you!" Tanjiro yelled unsheathing his blade as the demon snickered,

"Go to sleep" Tanjiro and Lakira flinched but broke free. Tanjiro started running and yelled,

"Breath of water Tenth Style: The Dragon of change" tanjiro leaped up and swung his blade, "Don't Insult my family!!" Tanjiro and Lakira's eyes widen when the moon demons head came off and rolled away,

"Somehow... I feel like your very existence makes me twitch in anger. Fufufu. Those faces so entertaining!" Lakira's eye twitched,

"You seem to understand, don't you!! Fufuf!!"

"The bastard fused with the train everyone in there is food!" Lakira hissed,

"Can you "Delay" me. I wonder" the moon demon sneered dissolving into the train.

Tanjiro's teeth crashed together as he shouted, "Inouskee!!! This train is no longer safe! Protect those who are sleeping! The whole train is a demon!!" The two saw Inouske jump up and slice the train. They dived in and started to slice the muscles attached to the people hearing lighting and yelling in the cart behind them. Then the carts jumped making Tanjiro fall.

"Noir, Kamado!!"

"Ren-sama!" Lakira gasped

"There's no time so I'll explain this quickly! The train is made up of 8 cars, I'll protect the back five! Yellow boy and your sister will protect the other three. you, Noir, and boar head boy will go for the demon's neck while watching the three front cars."

"Tanjiro gave him a look, " Neck!? But now th-"

"It doesn't matter every demon has a neck!!" Lakira huffed and Rengoku smiled,

"I'm also looking for his weak spot while fighting him time to get fired up, boy!!" The pillar vanished leaving a trail of fire.

"Let's go Tanjiro the demons getting stronger every second! It's in the front I can feel it!"

"I was gonna say that!!!" Inouske yelled from the top of the train,

"Inouske!!?"
