"Can you tell me what happened?" Nezuko asked gently. 

Kiyoshi gulped nervously and fumbled with his fingers. "I was taken by a monster... and... it wanted to eat me... then another one came and they started to fight on who gets to eat me...  and then the monster with the drums dropped one... I discovered that beating it changes the room and I've been using it ever since..."

"Did the demon ever say 'rare blood'?" Nezuko continued her inquires.

"Yes! he did say that!"

"Caww! The blood of organisms is a class system. even in rare bloods, there are people with precious blood.A person with precious blood can equal 50, even 100 people!! It's a demon delicacy!!" the crow screamed.

"Listen to me" Nezuko placed a hand on Kiyoshi's shoulder. "I will leave this room-"

"Eh?!" Teruko exclaimed. 

"It will be okay. I'm here to defeat the demons. Your brother is very tired right now, so you must take care of him. The moment I leave, beat the drum. If someone opens the door, beat the drum and run. Do not hesitate. I will follow your footsteps. I will call out your names as I open the door. Okay?" Nezuko said gently. The kids nodded in understanding. "Impressive! You're both very strong" she darted towards the door. "Beat the drum now!" she ordered and the kids did as they were told.

Zenitsu slowly opened his eyes from when he fell on the ground. He slowly sat up. "Why are you crying..?" he trailed off when he noticed Shoichi's tears. The blondie pulled his hand from behind his head. when he observed his fingers he saw that they were coloured with blood. "Did I fall on my head?!" he shrieked. 

"Pig assault! Pig assault!" a boy shrieked and leapt through the door. he skidded to a stop in front of Y/n and Tanjiro's box. "I sense a demon!" he unsheathed his katana. "Found it!" he growled menacingly. Zenitsu's eyes widened. 

"Stop! That's Nezuko's box! I won't let you touch it!" the blondie threw himself over the box protectively. 

"Hey hey hey! What're you doing?! there's demons in there!"

"Of course there are! I knew from the start!" Zenitsu yelled. Demons and humans have completely different sounds... But Nezuko makes a different sound... such a sorrowful sound. I have never heard a sound so kind... There must be a reason that Nezuko is carrying demons! I will ask her, but until then, back off!!" he ordered firmly. 

Y/n scratched at the wood of the box when he heard the kind words of the stranger. 

"Fool! You talk tough, but you dont draw your blade! Show me how you fight!" the boar head hollered and kicked Zenitsu in the face. The boy didn't budge, instead held the box tighter. 

A gasp of shock escaped Nezuko's lips as she watched the scene unfold. 

"I'll skewer the box along with you!" the boar head threatened and brought the blade closer to Zenitsu's chest. 

A frown deepened on Nezuko's face as she charged at the stranger. "Stop it!!" she screamed and punched him in the ribs as hard as possible. "Don't you understand why Zenitsu won't draw his sword?! do you find joy in this?! Are you that much of a coward?!" she demanded. 

"Thats your problem?! Lets fight bare handed then!" the boy cackled and charged at her. The two fought, Nezuko desperately trying to reason with him. After a few minutes of a couple of back and forth punches, the boy smashed Nezuko's face into the ground.  

"I'm awesome, aren't I? I'm awesome, aren't I?!" he cackled and bent backwards to show off his flexibility. 

"Dont do that! You'll hurt yourself!" Nezuko ordered. The stranger shot back up. The girl jumped up and brought her leg back up into the air. "Will you calm down?!" she screamed and slammed her heel into Inosuke's skull. A loud crack resonated through the forest. Y/n worriedly scratched at the box when he heard the loud noises. 

"Wah! That sound--! She broke his skull!!" Zenitsu wailed in shock.

The male in the mask stumbled backwards. His mask slipped off of his head, exposing his black and blue locks. His face was delicate and petite. His eyes were green and big. Everyone stared at him in utter shock. 

"What?! You got a problem with my face?!" the boy demanded in his hoarse voice. 

"I don't have a problem with your face!" Nezuko declared. "It's fair and delicate and attractive!!"

"What?! I'll kill you!"

"No chance! I'm not hitting you again!"

"Come on! Kick me!"

"No! Are you alright?"

"Listen, lady" the boy retorted quite rudely. "I'm Inosuke Hashibira! Remember that!"

"How is that spelled?" Nezuko asked politely. 

Inosuke stared ahead, completely stumped. "...I dunno! I can't read or write! But it's written on my waist band-" he suddenly stopped.Everyone stared at him, puzzled. His eyes rolled to the back of his head and he flopped forward.

"He collapsed!" Zenitsu shrieked in fear and pressed the box closer to himself. Y/n's lightened sense of smell allowed him to notice that Zenitsu smelled sweet like flowers.He nuzzled up to his older brother, who was already asleep, and allowed himself to drift off. 

--

Y/n was woken up again when Zenitsu started screaming. A lot. He slowly slid from between his older brothers protective embrace and out of the box. He rubbed his eyes as the harsh light burned his corneas. He stood up and used his abilities to grow back to his full-sized self. His messy h/c and red hair fell over his stormy e/c eyes. He had slight eyebags under his eyes which made him more attractive somehow. His yukata hung loosely over his shoulders and covered his hands.

Zenitsu, who was about halfway into a closet with Nezuko grabbing him from behind. "Huh?" he asked sheepishly. 

"Y/n! I saved some shrimp for you" Nezuko smiled at her dear brother. "This is Y/n, he's my-"

"Nezuko" Zenitsu interrupted. "You have it so good!"

"Eh?"

"I can't believe I stood up for you! I- I suffered for you so you could spend time going 'teehee!' and 'ahaha!' with a boy?! I did not get attacked by a boar for this!!" the blonde screamed.

"Calm down, Zenitsu, please! It's the middle of the night!" Nezuko tried her best to calm him down, despite him being in the middle of a tantrum.

"I didn't join the Demon Slayer corps for fun! Don't treat us so lightly! I will purge you!" he shrieked. "You shall face justice!!"

Zenitsu's wailing continued until the morning. Inosuke even woke up to fight him. Tanjiro also crawled out of his box to defend his younger brother, getting into a squabble with Zenitsu.

"why is this guy obsessed with me?" Y/n wrote on a spare piece of paper and handed it to Nezuko.

"He's just... passionate" Nezuko.

"Am I that pretty?" Y/n asked on the paper.

"Yes, very much" Nezuko chuckled and pet his hair. "If you really don't like him, let him down he'll easy. If you're harsh he might kill himself"

"I have to spend more time with that simp? I'll kill myself! :(" Y/n wrote on the paper. "Kidding, he seems very sweet" he scribbled right after that.
