The morning sun shined brightly through the thin paper of the door way, the light shining in Tokitos face. His eyes slowly fluttered open as he pushed himself up. He stretched out his arms and stared down at his lap for a moment before standing up.

He grabbed his blanket and folded it, setting it next to his pillow. After he had made his small bed he stared at his lap and sighed..

My friends name is Tanjiro Kamado.. He is 14- no no.. 15 years old

Tokito stood up and walked to his porch.. Maybe he should go on a walk.. maybe that will at least get his mind off the many.. horrible scenarios running through his head..

He walked down the path and into the forest. The forest always seemed to calm him down.

He wondered along, not really following any pathways. There weren't many pathways to begin with, but Tokito never seemed to mind. Creating new pathways was entertaining, even if he forgot those paths by the time he went on another walk.

The mist pillar wondered, and wondered, honestly he could very easily get lost with him memory lose. He guessed it was just too recent in his memory to forget right away.

Tokito soon came upon a bamboo forest. He couldn't recall this place, but honestly that was the case with him most of the time.

Before he could even enjoy the scenery around him, his crow flew down to him, cawing for his attention. Tokito held his arm out as the crowd landed on his forearm. "Do you have a mission for me?" He asked, putting two fingers on the top of its head and stroking down its feathers.

"Kyojuro Rengoku, the Flame Pillar has been killed by Upper Moon 3 Akaza!" The crow kawed

The blood is Tokitos body ran cold and his eyes grew wide. Rengoku? But Tanjiro was with...
Tanjiro!!
The boy started to run back up the trail be had made. It was still fresh in his memory so he didn't have as much trouble as he normal would.

He stumbled back onto the main pathway, his crow following as he frantically ran down the road to Okayatas garden.

When he arrived at the garden he ran around looking for a pathway to another home, what was it that Tanjiro called it? It was... it.. it was.. Ugh what was it! Tokito hit his head with his palm "Remember damn it!!" He yelled at himself

Bu.. Butter.. Butterfly..! Butterfly!! That's what it was!!

The boy looked around and ran down the path, he had seen butterflies before... somewhere.. Where was it?

As he stood there trying a remember, a butterfly crossed his path. When Tokito noticed the butterfly, he couldn't help but take the chance to see where it was going. He followed the butterfly to a road, just out of sight was the roof of a manor. He might as well try it.

He ran done the road and to the manors gates. The yard was full of butterflies and flowers along the house.. Then he noticed a little girl, his hair was black and in pigtails with butterfly pings holding them together.

He walked to the girl, "Excuse me?" He asked, reaching out to the girl to get her attention.

The girl turned and looked at the taller boy, "Eh? What is it that you want?" The black haired girl asked.

"I-Im looking for someone.. my friend Tanjiro Kamado, he's 15." He said restating the information he still managed to remember.

The girl nodded "Follow me please," she said before walking up onto the wrap around porch of the home. She slid open the doors and walked inside and Tokito followed close behind.

This house reminded him of his own home.. But it was much more decorated and light than his. It was.. strange honestly..

The girl lead him through the halls and onto a infirmary. Sitting on the bed in a light blue uniform.. no.. No that wasn't a uniform.. Tokito didn't know what exactly he was wearing.. Was Tanjiro.

Tanjiro turned his head and looked at the two "Oh! Aoi! Tokito-" before he could finish, Tokito rushed past the black haired girl and wrapped his arms around the older boy.

"Tanjiro!! I was so worried about you!! When I heard the Flame pillar had died I got so worried that you were hurt too!!!" Tokito exclaimed

Tanjiro had never seen him so distressed, so relieved yet panicked.. But.. He put his hand to pet it softly "You sure have gotten yourself worked up haven't you? I'm alright.. Tokito.." he said

Tokito closed his eyes and let his body relax.. He had never felt such a rush of panic.. or had he.. he couldn't remember.. all he knew is that Tanjiro was back.. And he could finally not have to worry about forgetting Tanjiro..
