Taisho Era
(IN THE PAST)
'Hey, Tanjiro!'
A yellow-haired guy in a triangle pattern Haori ran towards him with a book in his hands.
'Yo, Zenitsu!' greeted Tanjiro who was wearing a green and black checkered Haori with a demon slayer mark on his head.
'Well, do you believe in reincarnation ?' asked Zenitsu.
'Uhm, I don't know '
Tanjiro smiled, 'Are you doing research about it ?'
'Yes, but for fun.' said Zenitsu as he showed his journal to Tanjiro.
'Interesting.' said Tanjiro while he was flipping the journal.
'Hopefully is real, the ones who died can reincarnate and enjoy the new world without demons.'
Tanjiro looked at the sky as he finished his sentence.
'Yo! Kentaro, Monitsu! Whatchu doing there?'
A man with a boar mask walks towards them.
'I have started to write a journal so that my kids, grandchildren, great-grandchildren can read our stories.' said Zenitsu proudly.
'What's a journal, can we ask Aoi to cook it?' questioned the boar mask man, reaching to the journal to have a closer look.
'No, it's not food, Inosuke, it's a book. Zenitsu wrote this book to let his new generations to read.' explained Tanjiro, giving Inosuke the journal.
'Cool....'Inosuke complimented as he flipped the book.' I miss the old days, I missed the people left this world' Inosuke started crying when he flipped to a page which stuck with photos of the Hashiras, his friends and people who joined the demon corps.
His two friends pat his back.
'Don't be sad, they may reincarnate and enjoy their lives.' said Zenitsu, comforting his boar masked friend.

Back to the modern era
'Zenitsu....Inosuke.....is reincarnation real???
Sumihiko gripped his katana tightly. He collapsed on to his knees, looking up at the night sky.
Yoshiteru approached his cousin.
'Hey, let's go home first.....' He pat his back and giving him a hand to get up.
Sumihiko grabbed his hand and stood back up.
He agreed and follow Kanata and Yoshiteru back to his home.
He put back the stuff he took again as they arrived home.
The three boys sat down on the floor in the Kamado siblings' room, making a circle, looking at each other face to face.
'So you're not Sumihiko....Right?' asked Kanata, looking at his brother with his blank purple eyes.
' Reincarnation may be true, but why am I only the one who has memories of the past.' Sumihiko mumbled, putting his hand on his chin.
'That's not I am asking for,'Kanata snapped.
'Chill, Kanata. He, himself is also confused. ' Yoshiteru calmed Kanata down.
'Reincarnation..., my great-grandad did write that down in his journal.' Yoshiteru replied as he was cooling his cousin down.
Yoshiteru took out the journal from his bag and past it to Sumihiko. Sumihiko broke down into tears as he flipped the old book.
'Zenitsu....Inosuke...' he cried out, gripping the book tightly.
