The 2 weeks continued normally, except tanjiro found a way to possibly bring back zenitsu, inosuke, giyu-san and even makomo-san and sabito-san's memories, since urokodaki-san own a dojo he asked them to spar with him,
In 4 days later he got inosuke to practice his breathing first since he was the only one who knew a move, but in the first week he managed to get inosuke to use breath of the beast spatial awareness again by having him continuously spar with him, it may not be much but considering it was just a week he saw it as progress, he was also teaching giyu-san, makomo-san, and sabito-san water breathing again by showing them, when he first showed them the breath of the water first form they were all surprised and amazed, their scent also showed a faint scent of fondness, he asked them to try it but instinctively sabito used it once when they were sparring and he was left breathless after that, so he made them practice the breathing for the week, now is monday but they are showing incredible results.

He, zenitsu, and inosuke was walking home late, so he also asked nezuko to go without him, while they were chatting and walking, when they came across an alley way and heard a scream, tanjiro looks and holds tightly on his bokken, he was the only one who had one since inosuke would immediately collapse after using a move since his body couldn't handle the backlash of the move yet so they were working on it, while he doesnt know how to train zenitsu yet, but maybe... Yeah it might work so he gives zenitsu a back up bokken, "w-why are you giving me this tanjiro, we-were not in danger right?!" he says trembling "don't worry, but I want you to protect inosuke, he's very tired since he used a move today so I want you to take care of him" tanjiro whispers as he takes a stance, a demon walks out and sees them "oh what cute kids, you know kids are the tastiest ones hehehe~" he says laughing gleefully suddenly behind him  3 kids look at tanjiro 1 boys and 2 girls, the boy was the oldest but he looked around 12 or 13 years old and he had blood on him while holding his younger siblings close, they lock eyes and she cries, desperately begging tanjiro to help him and his siblings, tanjiro starts to run at the demon, the demon had killed 29 people, mostly children, he also has 4 hands on the sides of his body, he also has palish skin, grey hair and one eye, he looks tough, he needs to use sun breathing because only nichirin blades and the sun can kill demons, so he needs to act fast, he runs at him and says "Breath of the sun: fourth form Parhelion rainbow! "  tanjiro shouts as the demon starts to run at the kids seeing that the blonde kid fainted and the kid with blue hair was unconscious, so he extended his arms at them, but he immediately felt something went through him and was shocked when he sees blonde kid behind him and whispered something "breath of thunder: first form thunder clap and flash" then suddenly it feels like he was paralyzed he looks beside him he hears the kid with the earrings say "Breath of the sun: Seventh form Sunflower lance!" he screams as his head was peirced off his body "GODDAMIT THIS WAS SUPPOSED TO BE AN EASY MEAL AKIHIBA LIED!" the demon curses, as tanjiro hears that name he immediately asked the demon "where is akihiba!" tanjiro yells, the demon looks at him before smilling sadistically before saying "I rather die than tell you" he says with outmost hatred, but tanjiro just looks at him in a blank stare before the demon finally disappears, he didn't have time to celebrate that zenitsu remembered his only form as well as his strongest one, suddenly he hears inosuke shout "OI GOMPANCHIRO WHERE ARE WE AND WHY IS ZENITSU ASLEEP?!" his scream caused zenitsu to wake up and scream "AHHHHHH! TANJIRO WHAT HAPPENED?! WHAT WAS THAT MONSTER?!" zenitsu screams but tanjiro payed no mind at that and went to the kids first and asked, "are you guys okay?" all of them were still terrified so he smiled and patted their heads while saying in a soothing tone "its okay the bad guy is gone" the oldest one was the first one too recover and he immediately looked at the two younger siblings, seeing as they didn't have any wounds he was glad but he had a scratch on his leg, so when he tried to stand tanjiro helped him up after seeing that he was struggling "hey whats your name Im tanjiro kamado, the blonde one is zenitsu, and the other one is inosuke" tanjiro says "I-Im koto shinazugawa, my siblings name is teiko and sumi shinazugawa, n-nice to meet you" koto says in a shaken up voice "dont worry koto-san Ill bring you and you're siblings to the police station kay, their near here so come on its just a short walk kay?" tanjiro says as they walk to the police station when he hears four voices inside "shuya, hiroshi I told you not to come with me and genya! Your too young and we need to find koto, teiko and sumi faster, we can't have you holding us back! Come on genya we have to look now!" tanjiro knows that voice and scent so he walks a bit faster while holding koto close to him and he beckons sumi and teiko to follow him
"nemi they're just worried as much as us kay? Dont get too mad at them we'll find the-" "KOTO!!!" shuya and hiroshi shouts as they run to the door, so when genya and sanemi looked behind them they saw tanjiro holding up koto while both teiko and sumi were next to him, they were both glad they were safe as sumi and teiko runs at them while koto started to cry while sanemi took him from tanjiro's arms, koto was saying things about how scared he was and he was glad tanjiro saved him, tanjiro was just grinning awkwardly at the background knowing sanemi, he might shout at him but he was also shocked that koto was a sanemi-san's and genya's sibling, on second thought he mentally facepalmed at the fact that he forgot they both had the same family name shinazugawa, so he just stood there for while letting sanemi-san scold the three for staying outside for too long without anyone with them, until finally he notices tanjiro, he walks to tanjiro while genya also notices him and starts walking to him too, he looks nervously at the look sanemi-san was giving him was unnerving to say, he gulps as finally sanemi-san says something "you're a kid from my class right, tanjiro kamado?" sanemi-san says as he narrows his eyes "show me, how did you defeat that so called monster, now!" he says, so tanjiro nervously gulps as he, and all the shinazugawa siblings followed him to an empty lot, tanjiro takes a breath before performing breath of the sun: fourth and seventh form, parhelion rainbow and sunflower lance, sanemi looks at him, intrigued by the moves with a small glint of amazement while genya and the shinazugawa siblings looked at him amazed, tanjiro knows that he'll have to explain to zenitsu and inosuke what really happened tomorrow since he asked them to go home already with inosuke dragging a zenitsu who was so sore too move and complain, "oi brat" he hears sanemi say "I want you to teach me how the fuck you did that" sanemi-san says while looking him in the eye " I feel like I should know something like that, I dont know why but my mind keeps on telling me to do something like that so I want you to show me how you did that, got it brat" he says while looking at him "o-okay?" tanjiro stutters still confused and shocked sanemi-san would actually ask for his help "fine, we'll meet again tomorrow after your class got it, meet me at the gates" sanemi-san says as he leaves with his siblings in tow, 'YES!!!' tanjiro shouts in his mind, 'two hashiras down eight more to go!' he thinks as he happily went home, did his routine  and finally went back to sleep.
