Zenitsu's POV

I was looking outside the window when Nezuko-chan removed her muzzle and told me "Zenitsu" I was shocked because it was rare for her to remove her muzzle and speak in school.

"Oh hey Nezuko-chan~"

"Zenitsu, please don't tell onii-chan that I took off my muzzle."

"Okay"

"Can I tell you something?"

"What is it?"

"U-umm... I-I l-like y-y-you" she said then she blushed. "I-It's okay if you don't like me, I understand." She said

"Um.... No-no a-actually I-I like you too" "W-will you be my girlfriend?"

"Of course, Zenitsu-kun!"

And then she hugged me. 'I think I'm gonna faint' I thought to myself when suddenly Tanjirou and Kanao entered the room, luckily Nezuko had already put her muzzle on. 'Oh crap, I'm dead'

3rd Person POV

Tanjirou and Kanao walked into the room when he saw Nezuko hugging Zenitsu. Then his instincts told him to pull them apart.

"Zenitsu" Tanjirou called him while smiling

Nezuko pulled away from the hug.

"Y-yes T-Tanjirou?"

"Come with me" He said still smiling

'Oh crap, now I'm really dead' Zenitsu thought to himself

Outside of the classroom

"Zenitsu, do you promise to take care and protect my sister not only as a demon slayer, but also as her boyfriend?"

"H-hai!!"

"Now, don't ever hurt her or else..."

"Hai!"

"Let's go!"

Back in the classroom

"Where have you been?" Kanao asked

"Oh we just had a little talk, right Zenitsu?" Tajirou said

"Right, yeah" Zenitsu said

"Good morning everyone!" A voice cheerfully said. "You must be wondering who I am. I am Shinobu Kocho. I came here to relay the message for you from Tomioka-sensei since he will not be teaching today. From this period till lunch, you have no classes he said."

"Yay!" Everyone cheered

"Well, I should be going now." She said as she left.

Soon enough everyone was talking with each other. They were still talking when a freshman (a/n they are sophomores) knocked on the door.

*Knock,knock,knock*

A moment later Tanjirou opened the door.

"Hello, what do you need?" He asked while smiling.

"Rengoku-sensei calls for Kanao-senpai, Tanjirou-senpai, Inosuke-senpai, Zenitsu-senpai, and Nezuko-senpai regarding the news or something. Anyways please just go there." He said

"Okay" They said

Kanao's POV

In Rengoku's office

"Good morning sensei." We said

"Oh good you're here" Rengoku said "Anyways, I called you here because the demon attacks are increasing." 'Wait what? Demon? Then why are they here?' I thought. "Since you four are some of the strongest slayers in our school, I think you should teach the other students so they can protect themselves and others." 'Slayers? T-Tanjirou is a-a slayer?' "Don't worry I asked Oyakata-sama about this and he agreed but, you are to train only those who are willing" He said

"Hai, Rengoku-sensei" We all said.

Outside of Rengoku's office

"Tanjirou, why didn't you tell me you were a demon slayer?" I asked

"I-It's just I don't want you to get worried about me getting hurt." He said

"S-still... Then that means you are that man."

"Who?"

"The man who saved me last night, he's you isn't he?"

"Y-yes"

"Thank you" I said smiling

"It's what I should do."

"Students, please proceed to the gymnasium. We have announcements to make." A voice from the speaker said.

"So should we go?" Tanjirou asked

"Yes, we should." I replied

3rd Person POV

In the gymnasium

"Welcome, students" Oyakata-sama started. "We called you here today because of an important announcement. Our school is a some kind of a demon slayer academy. And since demons are now more active than these past years, we have decided that whoever wants to be a demon slayer will be trained by some of our strongest demon slayers and hashiras."

Everyone gasped as Oyakata-sama said that.

"We will give you a day to think about that and anyone who wants to be a demon slayer will come here the day after tomorrow. Of course if you didn't decide to join, then the next day or week or month or year you want to become a demon slayer you are welcome to join."

"Let me introduce to you the Nine Hashiras/Pillars:
Himejima Gyomei, the Stone Pillar
Tomioka Giyuu, the Water Pillar
Rengoku Kyojuro, the Flame Pillar
Obanai Iguro, the Serpent Pillar
Tengen Uzui, the Sound Pillar
Tokito Muichiro, the Mist Pillar
Shinazugawa Sanemi, the Wind Pillar
Mitsuri Kanroji, the Love Pillar; and
Kocho Shinobu, the Insect Pillar."

"If no one has anymore questions, you may now leave."
