9 AM in Master's House
"Hello there Tomioka-san.", said Shinobu in annoyance. "Greetings.", he replied back. As he walked up to Shinobu, Shinobu turned around and put her sword back into her belt. It seemed like Shinobu has been here early, Tomioka thought as he walked up. Turns out that he was right. Shinobu has been here early. Like really really early. The sweat coming from her forehead, her breathing was rough, and her sword grip was filled with lots of sweat. As he kept walking, he looked around at the practice mannequins. Each of the mannequins had scratches mostly seen at the neck. The neck was still attached to the torso. Aren't those just delivered just last night? Giyuu thought to himself. Yes of course it is. Probably all the scratches are from her sword. ( As most of you guys know, to kill a demon is to behead them. In this case, Shinobu tried to decapitate it without her poison but was unable to.)As Giyuu was right in front of Shinobu, she said in a hasty voice, "Were you looking at Tomioka-san? Wish that you were like them eh?", Tomioka looked at her with his blue stormy eyes and replied, "Let's just go. Master already gave us our instructions. We have to be in a village near Tokyo where demons have been spotted." He calmly turned around and started walking. Shinobu snapped back from reality when she realized that Tomioka was walking away from her. This man -UGHHH she said in her mind. "HEYYY you punk, wait up!", she yelled and started running to him. Tomioka turned around and walked at a faster pace. Shinobu realized and thought to herself, I will kill this man when I am right behind him.

11 AM In the Middle of Nowhere
They walked at a slow but steady pace. With their swords by their side and each other, they are friendly, observant, and smart duo. Probably...right? "TOMIOKA YOU FOOL ARE WE LOST?!", Shinobu yelled at him. "I am not sure.", he replied back. He looked at his map and studied it for a while. He kept glancing at the map and their environment many times. "Give me that you klutz!", Shinobu said angrily and stole it from his hands. "You Idiot! Are you that blind? WE ARE SUPPOSED TO GO NORTHWEST NOT SOUTHWEST! DID THAT DEMON MAKE YOU MORE DUMBER?!", Shinobu gave back his map and walked in the right direction. "HEY TOMIOKA! Can you see where I am pointing? THIS IS NORTHWEST!", Shinobu yelled at him with a tick mark. Giyuu just replied with an OoO face and walked in her direction. As Shinobu observed the distance, Giyuu patted her head and said "Thank you Kocho-san.", Giyuu strolled in front of her right away. As soon as his hand left her head, she blushed furiously. She was so red like a tomato.'This damn guy, what is he doing to me? Shinobu said in her mind. She looked back at Tomioka, who was now a few yards away from her walking in the right direction. Shinobu then ran to him and together walked to the village.
During their walk~~~
"You are very lucky to be alive right now Tomioka.", Shinobu said. "Or else you'd be dead.", Tomioka looked back at her and said, "Yes I am." He then said, "Why are you so mean now?" Shinobu then shot him a death stare. "Do you have a death wish Tomioka- san? As I said, you are very lucky to be alive right now. If my sister wasn't with me during your recovery, I would seriously KILL YOU.", she replied, emphasizing "kill you". Tomioka just looked at her and shrugged it off. Why is she like that? Small and loud, like an insect. Not a butterfly but a mosquito. Just thinking about it, he chuckled slightly. Shinobu saw it and said "Hey! What are you laughing about! Is it about me? I swear if it's about me, I will slip- OW! WHAT THE HECK?", Shinobu bumped into Giyuu but Giyuu stayed in place. They were in a village. A lively one. Both of the slayers looked around for a bit. They were amazed but the liveliness and wonders of the village. Both creativity and kindness were both showed by the village and the people. As they continued to walk, Giyuu stopped and looked in a restaurant. He said "I am hungry. Do you want to eat?", She replied "Okay fine but you're paying." Smiling, Giyuu replied "Then let's go. Ladies first." Shinobu then stared at him and walked in. This baka. she said quietly and blushed quickly which was not seen by Giyuu.

The two slayers entered the restaurant. As soon as they walked, a waiter came up to them. The waiter then leads them to their table. They looked around and it seemed that only a few people were eating there. Giyuu seemed confused. The food looked like good quality served with many delicious and desirable sides. So why are there a few people? But, there was a small number of people eating around and it probably just happened. "Welcome to The Dragon's Den! Thank you for being here with us. This is our opening day so please rate us before you leave. Here are your menus and I will be right back," the female waiter said and left.

Shinobu POV:
"I must say Tomioka, you have great taste in restaurants.", I said. Tomioka then glanced his eyes to my eyes and said, thanks. Is this idiot really going to just say that? Before, I even said a damn word to him the female waiter came by and said in a cheery voice,"Hi, my name is Aiko and I will be your waiter for today. Like I said, thank you for being with us. What would you like?" I then replied, "I would like-. Screams were then heard from outside the restaurant. Giyuu and I then rushed outside to what happened. We rushed into the crowd and got to the front. The view was so horrific m, we halted. Right before our eyes, we saw a person's body dismembered on top of a pool of blood. The villagers had wide-opened eyes with tears coming out. "EIKO! NO!", a person screamed amid in the crowd. Giyuu and I glanced at who had screamed. The person who was presumably the one who yelled popped out. "Aiko-san?". I said. Aiko rushed towards the body, ignoring me. "That is Aiko-san alright," Giyuu responded. "It is the same girl who "served us" at Dragon's Den. She's not wearing her uniform rig-." Giyuu was then cut off by Aiko's wailing. Everyone was still frozen from that terrifying sight. Murmurs were heard among the crowd, "Who would do such a thing? Why him? This is heart-breaking!". The murmurs got louder until Aiko cried out, "Eiko-chan..." It was a very emotional scene. The villagers then decided to leave the scene, to give her privacy and to forget that dreadful view. As the crowd decreased by numbers, I walked by her and said, "I am very sorry for your lost. He must have been a great kid." Aiko-san then looked up to me and said, "He is a great kid and brother. Very obedient and nIcE and -" her words then mumbled into random words that I can't interpret. This must be a work of a demon, I hypothesis. Giyuu then said behind me, "Aiko-san, let's take you home. My partner and I will escort you. " Aiko-san then said, "Let's go then." We then followed her to somewhere familiar. We were back at the restaurant. When I was about to ask why we were here, Aiko-san said, "This is my home. Welcome." Giyuu and I then entered her "house" and walked up to the second floor. "Please take a seat and I will make tea for you." We did as we were told and a few minutes after, Aiko-san settled down and served tea. With her eyes still puffy and her lips trembling, I said, "Take your time, and say what you need." She then said-
