The two kids were shivering, holding onto each other as if they'll be separated forever.

Zenitsu was shaking, his teeth chattering as he stares at the house. Tanjiro goes back to looking at the unconscious male, frowning. 'If only we'd gotten here a little sooner, he wouldn't be in so much pain.' His frown dampens. But he realizes what Zenitsu was trying to say earlier, so he takes it in his hands to ask, but to the kids instead.

"Hey, is this man your..." Tanjiro paused, looking at the two that were holding each other.

"I-It's not brother." The older brother answers.

"My brother is wearing an orange kimono." He described, not letting go of his younger sister, nor opening his eyes.

'I see.' Tanjiro mouth went agape, figuring out the situation here. 'So it's captured more than one person.' A bullet of sweat rolls down his cheek.

"All right." Tanjiro mumbles, standing up from his crouching position. "Zenitsu! Let's go!" Tanjiro turning his head towards the latter direction. Zenitsu just stands there, whimpering before shaking his head. "But no one else can help them now but you, me and (Y/n)." Tanjiro fully turns his body to Zenitsu, who only shakes with tears swelling up in his eyes. Tanjiro tilts his head down, a shadow covering his upper half of his face and his eyes. "Really?" Tanjiro whispered. "All right, then." Tanjiro cold tone made Zenitsu flinch dramatically, since he was the only one seeing the look on Tanjiro face. Right when Tanjiro starts to walk away, Zenitsu immediately clings onto him by grabbing the box. "Hey, come on! Why are you making that ogre face at me?" Zenitsu cries out, his lower body dragging on the ground from Tanjiro still walking. "Okay, I'll go!!" Zenitsu finally agrees to go.

"I have no intentions of forcing you to." Tanjiro grumbles, still being kind but a tad bit disappointed mixed with it.

"I said I'll go!" Zenitsu tells Tanjiro, his whole body now dragging on the ground and getting dirt on his clothes. You stayed focusing on helping the unconscious male recover, not wanting to mess up from just looking at the small commotion.

Tanjiro places the box in front of the duo, his so called 'ogre face' already gone.

"In case of an emergency, I'm leaving this box behind." Tanjiro notified, placing a hand on the box.

"Even if something happens, you two will be protected." Tanjiro looks behind him, staring at you for a few seconds before looking away. "Okay, we're going now." Tanjiro stands up, walking towards the front door of the house. Zenitsu on his tail as he sobs.

Once they walk in, the hallways are pretty dark, the lights being dim.

Objects like vases, baskets and other stuff were in the corners. All dusty from how old it was.

Tanjiro leads the way, still having his guard up. Zenitsu was heavily breathing, tears streaming down his face. "Tanjiro!" Zenitsu whimpers out the males name. "Hey, Tanjiro!" He whimpers his name out again, trying to make sure he has his attention. "You'll protect me, right? You'll protect me, right?" He repeats the sentence, shivering.
