Kimetsu no Yaiba: The Modern Era

Chapter 3: Sleepover

'Honey, someone's at the door, can you please check who is it?' asked Mrs. Kamado who is busy doing the washing in the kitchen.

'Alright' Kanata walks to the door and saw Yoshiteru and Touko at the entrance of their house.

'Yo, guys' greeted Kanata blankly.

'Hi! Kanata Kun, you are handsome as usual. 😘💓' Touko rush towards Kanata and hugs him tightly.

'Touko, I can not breathe....' murmured Kanata, trying to cool down Touko who was overexcited.

'Let's go in ' said Yoshiteru giving Kanata a glare with his envious eyes.

As they walked into the Kamado sibling's bedroom, Sumihiko was doing his homework, he turns to the door and greeted both of his cousins.

He stopped what he was doing, and noticed his cousin's, Yoshiteru, his bag is enormous.

'Hey... Yoshi, what'd in the bag? You're just staying here for one night, not a month.' Sumihiko puzzled as he pointed Yoshiteru's bag.

'Hahaha' this bag is not an ordinary bag!' Yoshiteru laughed proudly.

'The bag is full of grandpa's diaries, journals, and katana, this shit again??' Touko rolled her eyes as she picked up a magazine with Tenma Uzui in the cover.

' Shut up, sis. This bag is full of the precious stuff that may help Sumihiko!' screamed Yoshiteru dramatically.

Kanata put his index finger on his lips, asking them to lower their voice down.

It was 10.00 p.m and they started putting their sleeping beds on the floor. Yoshiteru took out one of his grandad's journal to show Sumihiko.

'Hey, Sumihiko, is this the one you see in your horrific dreams?' Yoshiteru questioned, pointing at the picture that was posted on this journal for centuries ago.

'Wait, wasn't this the picture that hung on my living room???' Sumihiko yelled. 'You got that too? '

'Yeah obviously, that guy that looks like me in the picture is my great gramps. ' Yoshiteru pointed a guy in a triangle pattern haori. And he was standing beside my great granny. '

'What the hell, the boar man that appeared in my dreams was standing beside my great grandfather???!!!!' yelled Sumihiko again.

'Honey, keep the voice down please?' warned Mrs. Kamado who was downstairs.

'Okay!' replied Sumihiko.

'Why is this boar man here???' whispered Sumihiko curiously.
' According to my grandad, he said that this boar man's name is Hashibira Inosuke, he is a demon slayer like our ancestors. He is a stubborn and funny man who always can't get his friends' names right.' chuckled Yoshiteru.

'Really? He was scary when I met him in my dreams ' murmured Sumihiko. ' he yelled at me but I can't get what he said....'

'Try thinking it back, it may help us to find some answers.' Yoshiteru pats his cousin's head.

'Kama...boko..Gonpachiro? I guess.' said Sumihiko. 'What does that mean??'

'Hmm, maybe it's your gramps's nickname that he made up ?'Yoshiteru scratches his head as he was unsure what he had said.

'No way, that nickname is too long! 'Sumihiko all most burst his voice out but he manages to cover his mouth up.
' I rather keep nicknames short like Yoshi, who in the world would like a long nickname?'

'Your gramps, I guess' Yoshiteru smirked as he turns to his sister who was asleep with the magazines scattered all the place.

'Have you done talking, Yoshi? '

'Gah, what the hell, Kanata, I thought you were asleep ?' Yoshiteru got frightened, facing the boy on the upper bunk bed.

'You better sleep, if not you will be late for tomorrow ' yawned Kanata as he is tucked into bed.

'Especially you, Sumihiko.'

Somewhere else

'Have you found his blood?' The man in black stood up, walking toward his assistant that failed his mission.

He hits the assistant without hesitation. 'You know, I want his blood, is it that hard, Tomura?

Tomura stood up from the bloody floor, showing him the blue spider lily liquid, I have killed all the others so that they can't find the cure to stop you, Lord Kibutsuji.' Tomura bowed, giving respect to him.

'Well played, Tomura. Unfortunately, I am not like my father. I can't create demons like him. That's why I really need his blood, the ability so I can make my father's dream come true, DESTROY ALL HUMANS.' laughed the lord.

'Wow, wonderful my lord, ' cheered Tomura.

Back to the Kamado house

Everyone was asleep, suddenly a THUMP made Yoshiteru woke up.

'What was that ?' he asked as he was rubbing his eyes to see clearly.

"Sumihiko.....?" he gasped his eyes widen as he saw Sumihiko who was the one who made that sound.
