"Why would mere humans be accompanying a demon?" Demon 1 sneered.

Nezuko is standing protectly in front of you while growling at demon 3. You stared at her in awe that she came out of the box for you. That's weird. Nezuko only came out of the box because Tanjiro was the one in trouble...That means I'm so weak that I'm slowly changing the plot. I'm the one who needs protection. You narrow your eyes in disappointment at your performance. You've done nothing so far. The two demons retreat for now and Nezuko calms herself down. She turns around and tilts her head cutely at you. You pick yourself up and twirl your sword around.

"Don't worry about me, Nezzie. I'm fine." You assured her.

She nodded her head before making her way over to Kazumi and the unconscious girl. She placed her hands on their cheeks and thought about her deceased siblings.

"Nezuko..." Tanjiro gasped. All three of the demon clones have returned. Nezuko's veins popped out in anger that these demons would hurt humans. She will show no mercy for those who hurt innocents. Especially on those who hurt you! She dashed forward to aim a kick. "Nezuko!" Tanjiro worriedly exclaimed.

She missed and tried to kick the one in the middle, but the rest of them retreated. She growls in frustration since she can't see them anymore.

"Don't worry, sweetie. You'll get them next time." You assured her.

"Don't encourage her." Tanjiro scolds you. "Nezuko, come back to me." Nezuko begins to run in his direction. As she's running, one of the demons attempts to grab her underground. "Nezuko!" Tanjiro shouted. But she flipped over him and kept on running.

"Tanjiro, Nezuko isn't a fragile flower. She's a demon now and is more physically stronger than us. She doesn't need our protection." You gently remind him.

This make's Tanjiro's eyes widen. Is it all right for her to handle this? If I have her watching over those two, we can focus on our attacks, he thought. He only took a single step forward and the swamp appeared under them. "Nezuko! I'm going underground. I want you to protect those two. You can do that, right?" Tanjiro asked while smiling. She nodded her head.

"Hold on!" You called out. You ran towards Tanjiro and the swamp is. Demon 2 tried to stop you, but you easily cut off his arms and flipped over him. "I'm coming with you. We promised Grandpa we would watch each other's backs and not get separated." You said. And to redeem myself for being useless so far.

The two of you held hands and jumped inside the swamp. You held your breath as the two of you slowly sank beneath. It's almost pitch black save for the moon's light that is up above. Even though you have seen this scene before, it's heart wrenching to see the many clothing of young girls floating around. Many lives have been taken too soon by this beast. You and Tanjiro have the same angry expression on your faces.

"Getting hard to breathe, brats?" Demon 1 chuckles. "There's hardly any air around here. On top of that, the darkness coiling around your bodies must feel pretty heavy."

You rolled your eyes at them since the two of you can breathe perfectly fine. The air in the mountain where you trained was a lot thinner than here. The only problem is you can't see them as well due to how dark it is. But luckily those dumbassess are constantly grinding their teeths, so you can hear them perfectly well!

The two demons begging to swing around you like their mermaids. You let go of Tanjiro's hand, much to his slight sadness, and swim to the nearest one. You know Tanjiro takes them out with ease, so only killing one should be a no big deal. This is it! My chance to redeem myself in Tanjiro's eyes! Even though you can't see demon 3, you can hear him coming to your left. Like Tanjiro's form, this one also doesn't require a proper footing.

Dance Breathing, Fifth Form: Improve Breakdance!

Water Breathing, Sixth Form: Whirlpool!

You spin your entire body around like your breakdancing while also spinning around your chain to extend the length of your sword. Demon 3 cries out as his entire body, including his neck, gets chopped into pieces. Tanjiro created a whirlpool to also chop demon 1 into pieces. Before you swim back up to the surface, you spotted a piece of the demon's clothing where all the hairpins are tucked in. You grabbed it just as your lungs were screaming for oxygen.

I can't breathe! You quickly got light headed and were about to pass out when Tanjiro warped his arms around you and carried you back to the surface. You took a deep breath in time to see the last demon clawed at Nezuko.

The two of you quickly cut off his arms to save best girl. "Don't touch my sister." Tanjiro glares at him. As the demon falls, you kick him over to the wall and point your blade at him. "You give off a scent like rotten oil. It's a horrible smell! How many people have you killed?!" Tanjiro yells

"Listen!" The demon shouts. "If women live any longer, they turn ugly and start tasting like crap! So we killed them for their own good! You should be thankful for us demons-"

You cut him off by slicing off his jaw. "You disgust me. How dare you judge a woman's worth based on their age." You sneered. The demon's jaw quickly regenerated which made you want to slice it off again, but you needed him to talk for Tanjiro to interrogate him. You took a step back to allow Tanjiro to be the one to kill him.

"You're going to tell me what you know about Kibutsuji Muzan." Tanjiro said. The demon gasped and began to tremble in fear. You look at the demon with pity knowing about Muzan's curse. "Talk to me! Start talking!" He demands.

"I-I can't tell you. I can't tell you!" The demon whimpers.

You walked over to where Nezuko is and checked out her wound. The claw marks didn't seem that deep and you'll know she'll sleep it off. You took out a handkerchief and gently wiped off the blood. "You'll be okay." You smiled.

"Hmm mmm." She cooed. She then begins to shrink while falling asleep. You scoop her in your arms before turning around to see the demon still trembling with fear.

"I can't tell you! I can't tell you! I can't tell you!" He repeated. His arms suddenly grew back and he lunged at Tanjiro. "I can't tell you, all right!?"

Tanjiro quickly dodge his attack and slices off his head. He looked upset that he couldn't get any information from him. That's when he sees Nezuko unconscious in your arms. "Nezuko!" Tanjiro panics.

"It's okay. She's just sleeping to recover her strength." You assured him.

He runs over and places his hand on her wounded forehead. "I see she stopped bleeding. I guess she really does need to sleep to regenerate. Nezuko, I'm so sorry. Wait a little longer. I promise to turn you back into a human again!" Tanjiro set the box down and you gently put her inside. Then you both walked over to Kazumi who is still devastated by the loss of his fiance.

"Kazumi kun? Are you okay?" You asked. Kazumi looks at you and begins to cry.

"I've lost my fiance. How can I be all right?" Kazumi sobs.

"Kazumi san...No matter how many people you may lose, you have no choice but to go on living. No matter how devastating the blows may be." Tanjiro said.

This response angers Kazumi and he grabs Tanjiro by his haori. "What do you know about it!? A kid like you?!" He screams. Tanjiro gently grips his wrist with both his hands and gives him a sympathetic smile.

"We'll be on our way." Tanjrio said.

"But before we go, here..." You took out the piece of the demon's vest from your sleeve and handed it to him. "Here. I hope you find something that belongs to Satoko's." Kazumi opens up the clothing and sobs at the sight of Satoko's ribbon. "We're so sorry for your loss." You said. You and Tanjiro bow at him before leaving.

"I-I'm sorry! That was an awful thing to say! I'm so sorry!" Kazumi wails. You and Tanjiro turned around and waved at him.

"We're leaving that young woman in your hands!" Tanjiro called out.

"Alright!" Kazumi promised.

The sun had already come up when the two of you left the town. Despite witnessing death all around you, this mission has traumatized you knowing there are a lot more people like you who lost someone important to a demon. And speaking of demons, Tanjiro's about to meet Muzan tonight. Are you ready for this?

"Is something wrong, (Y/N) chan?" Tanjiro asked.

"Huh? Oh um," Can't let him know. Think of a good excuse. "I was wondering, was I strong tonight?" You asked.

Tanjiro looked taken aback."What? Of course you're strong! What made you think you weren't?"

"When we started fighting the demon clones, I got taken out rather easily. Nezuko had to come out of her box to protect me. You did most of the work today."

"But you helped tremendously, (Y/N) chan! You saved the girl and protected her. You killed one of the clones as well. Not to mention you saved my life when you warned me that there were three of them. You are a great slayer, (L/N) (Y/N)."

Your (e/c) orbs begin to watered at his sweet complement. "Arigato, Tanjiro."

Pedro and Matsuemon came flying through and landed on their respective owners' shoulders. "Next up, Asakura, Tokyo!" Matsuemon exclaimed.

"Rumors of demons lurking around! Go investigate!" Pedro chimes in.

"We're heading to the next mission already?!" Tanjiro exclaims in disbelief.

"Oh yes you are!" Matsuemon replied.

You giggle to yourself before dragging Tanjiro. "Come on, Tanji. There's no rest for us Demon Slayers." You said.

Your (e/c) eyes become starstruck when you gaze around the modern city. The tall buildings illuminating the night sky, trolleys and cars are passing by (where was this when your family got slaughtered?), and the crowded people. You know Muzan is around here somewhere, but right now you're mesmerized by all this.

"It's just like back home!" You awed.

"Are the cities really this advanced? I know it's night, but this place is so bright! I feel so dizzy!" Tanjiro exclaimed. He makes his scarf into a hat to help cover the blinding lights. The two of you dragged a sleeping Nezuko across the tracks.

"If you think this is advanced, just see my home in America. We're really big and diverse." You added.

"No wonder you're so adaptable." Tanjiro mutters. He spotted an alleyway and pulled you both in that direction. "Let's head this way, guys. Away from that noise." Unfortunately for him, the two of you witnessed a couple making out in the alleyway. "Ahh! I beg your pardon!" Tanjiro bows while blushing furiously. He pulls you both out of the alleyway in a hurry.

You began to laugh hysterically at him. "Oh my God, Tanjiro. You're such a virgin." You laughed. If he thinks making out is bad, then he'll definitely faint if he sees homeless people fucking each other underneath the subway stairs.

"Don't laugh at me! We shouldn't be seeing that stuff!" He yells.

If only you knew I'm not as innocent as I look. Tanjro tried to lead them out of the city, but he was getting overwhelmed by the crowd. You shook your head and grabbed onto his hand and took the lead. "Leave this to me, mountain boy." You said. You gracefully led them out of the crowded city and into a quiet area where the noodle cart is there. "See? Not a problem." You bragged.

"That's because you're from the city." Tanjiro groans. Then he spots the noodle cart and makes his way over there. "Excuse me. A bowl of udon with grated yam on top please." He orders

"I'll have what he's having." You said.

"Uh, sure thing!"

The three of you sat on the bench while waiting for your food. Nezuko laid her head on your shoulder as she continued to doze off. This makes you smile and begin to play with her hair.

"I have another reason why you're so strong, (Y/N) chan."

"Huh?"

"You can handle the city with ease. I can't."

"Oh, Tanji."

"Here's your udons with grated yam on top!"

"Thank you very much!"

You immediately munch down on your food. You haven't eaten since yesterday. While you're eating, you hear a crash and you see Tanjiro's bowl smashed on the ground. Your heart skipped a beat knowing the time has come. Poor Tanjiro is breathing heavily as beads of sweat begin to appear on his forehead. You grabbed his hand and gently squeezed it. "Tanjiro, what's wrong?" You asked, already knowing what it is.

"It's him! The demon who killed my family! Kibutsuji Muzan!" He yells. He grabs his sword and makes a run for it. You really didn't want to leave Nezuko behind, but you don't want Tanjiro to go through this alone. I'm sorry, Nezuko. You also grabbed your chain sword and followed after Tanjiro.

The two of you begin to push through the crowd of people to see Michael Jackson. With each passing step, your heart bangs against your chest. You finally spot the hee-hee man's fedora and his fancy suit. Oh God, this is it. Tanjiro reaches up to him and grabs his shoulder. Michael Jackson turns around to reveal his menacing magenta eyes at him. Tanjiro was about to unsheathe his sword, but you grabbed his wrist to stop him.

"Daddy?" Muzan turns around to reveal he has a little girl with him. The innocent girl stares at you both with wide eyes. "Who are they?" She asked.

"It's alright. Don't worry." Muzan assured her.

Tanjiro is left speechless after seeing the little girl. Despite fearing Muzan, you couldn't stop your body from trembling in anger. He's the reason why demons exist and why people like Douma think they can do whatever they want. He's responsible for Leo turning into a demon by those bastards. "I want...I-I..." You struggle to speak.

"Is there something I can do for you both?" Muzan smiles. "You two seem quite flustered."

"M-My...brother...D-D..." What is wrong with me?! Why can't I complete my sentence? Is his aura really that intimating that it prevents me from speaking?

The mother soon joins them. "Oh my. What's going on?" She asked.

"Mother!" The little girl beams.

The mother looks at the two of you. "Do you know them, dear?" She asked.

"No. Much to my consternation, I've never seen these children before. The (h/c) haired girl looks to be foreign, so I know I've never seen her." Muzan answers. His fingernails grow sharper and you know what's about to happen next. "They must have mistaken me for someone else." He said.

"DON'T!" You pleaded.

But it was too late. Muzan has already scratched the man in the neck. You and Tanjiro are horrified by this. The man touches his neck and soon begins to stumble forward. His wife notices this and grabs onto him. "Dear, what's the matter?" She asked. Veins began to pop up throughout his body as his fangs grew sharper. "Dear?"

"Stop!" Tanjiro yells.

The man bit his wife on her shoulder hard enough to draw blood. The wife cries out in agony. This caught the attention of the entire crowd.

"Stop it!" You yelled out. The two of you took off running with Tanjiro removing his scarf from his head. That is when Muzan saw the hanafuda earrings. You tackle the man off his wife and hold his body in place. "Hurry, Tanjiro! Put your scarf in his mouth!" You yelled. Tanjiro did exactly as you said and helped you restrain him.

"Dear!" His wife cried out.

"Ma'am! You need to worry about yourself! Please take a cloth and press down hard on the wound!" Tanjiro instructed. The man tried to bite Tanjiro when he was distracted, but you shoved his face to the side and kept his arm above his head to prevent him from clawing anyone else.

"We need help!" You called out. You're hoping she's nearby and comes to the rescue quickly.

The little girl begins to whimper and cries on Muzan's shoulder. "Are you alright? You mustn't look." He told her. "It's dangerous, Rei. Let's move over there."

"He's leaving!" You shouted.

Tanjiro looked conflicted between restraining the man and confronting Muzan. "Kibutsuji Muzan! I'm not letting you get away! No matter where you go!" Tanjiro screams.

Fuck it! I can't hold it in anymore. "MUZAN! YOU TELL DOUMA I'M AFTER HIS RAINBOW COLOR ASS! HE'S THE REASON WHY I'M A SLAYER AND WHY I'M COMING AFTER YOU NEXT! YOU TELL IT TO HIS FACE!" You raged.

Muzan kept on walking with his "family".

"What's the matter with those children?" The mother asked.

"NO MATTER WHERE YOU GO, YOU'RE NOT GETTING AWAY! I'LL FOLLOW YOU TO THE ENDS OF HELL, AND I SWEAR I'LL SLICE OFF YOUR HEAD WITH MY BLADE! I'LL NEVER FORGIVE YOU NO MATTER WHAT!" Tanjiro promised.

Muzan gritted his teeth and kept on walking away. You doubt he's afraid of you, but you're hoping he punishes Douma for causing an interference.

"What the hell are you doing? Is it a drunk?"

"Kids, step away from that man!"

Uh oh. The local authorities are here.

"We can't! Please bring some restraints!" Tanjiro pleaded.

"Shut up and step away!"

You yelped when one of the cops forcefully grabbed your arm and tried to pull you away. "Don't touch her!" Tanjiro screams. "We can't let go of this man or else he'll kill people!"

"Please, believe us when we say we don't want this person to end up a killer!" You begged.

"If you're going to keep resisting..." One of the cops was about to swing his batton at you.
