"Spoilers don't affect me at all. I have been through the manga a lot doing my own stories. I already knew that [...] I like knew that after I binge watched the anime twice in December 2019 and caught up to the were the was manga at in January 2020."

Okay... it's been two times already that you're saying that spoilers doesn't affect you. But there are other people who may read this fanfiction and who doesn't want to be spoiled :(

Please, don't write everything I told in the spoilers section right down in the reviews. I don't remember if you already did that the first time, but please, don't do that again.

I'm not mad at you, but I'm disappointed to see that even if I'm trying my best to avoid spoilers, you do that.

"I really liked your story. And even though your writing style was kinda "annoying" for me at the start, it grew on me and I like it. I can't wait to read the rest."

Ahh, I'm really glad then !! x'33

I hope the future chapters will be up to your expectations !

"Ali: I don't know why I just watched demon slayer (I should have watch it sooner !) and now I'm reading a lot of fan fictions. But there's only few fan fictions I enjoy. THIS is DEFINITELY my favorite ! I don't know why but I love role swaps ! Please write more !"

OH MY GOOOD YOU'RE SO KIND !!! QAAQ

It's okay ! As the saying goes, better late than never ! :DD

Everytime I finish a show that I liked, I ALWAYS get myself into a phase of "fanfiction reading" in which I read TONS of fanfics from the fandom of the show I just watched. So now I know I'm not the only one and I'M GLAD TO KNOW THIS !! X'DD

If by "write more", you mean fanfictions, errrf I don't really know if I will... but if you mean chapters, then of course and with pleasure !!

Anyway-- THIS IS TOO SWEET OF YOU ! THANK YOU SO MUCH QAAQ

That really means a lot to me X'3

Asakusa, Tokyo


Finally, here they were.

It was now two days since the two Kamados had set out for Tokyo.

The road hadn't been easy. Barely after nightfall, the young demon slayer had already collapsed from fatigue, having had no rest for nearly two days.

But fortunately, they had continued to move forward despite this because Tanjiro took care to place his sister on his back so that he could continue a little on her way until the sun rose.

Whereupon the girl resumed her walk the next morning; once having regained strength after a good night's sleep, and continued until the morning of the next day, that is, a few hours before sunrise.

Yes, it was close.

Now, here they were. Both of them in the Asakusa district, in Tokyo. Right in the middle of a gigantic alley crowded with people, surrounded by many buildings with bright lights.

Quite unsettled by the sudden change of scenery, the two siblings went to a somewhat secluded corner of the alley, scarves around their necks, never letting go of the other's hand as they observed the landscape with big eyes.

While they had been rather disappointed with the overall appearance of the previous town where they had fought the kidnapper demons, Asakusa was really completely different from the quiet little mountain village they were originally from.

'I-incredible !!' Nezuko thought, as she watched with twinkling eyes the various passers-by walking in front of her. 'There are so many people... A-and these buildings... they are so high !! So bright !!! So that is what cities look like...'

Although she particularly liked the peace and quiet of the mountains, Nezuko was completely in awe of the new cityscape she was discovering. All these lights, these colors, this "living" side of the city that there wasn't really in her mountain village... all this fascinated her.

Wanting to check her older brother's reaction, she slowly turned her head towards him, curious to know how he was feeling :

But where Nezuko was in full awe of the city, Tanjiro seemed to feel the complete opposite.

The boy was quite disoriented, not knowing what to look at with everything that made up the alley.

The strong, dazzling lights were hurting his eyes and the crowds around him made him feel very uncomfortable.

'H-he doesn't look very good...' She said to herself, saddened at the sight of her older brother.

However, she still gave him a small smile a few seconds later before speaking.

《Hey, Big Brother...》She began, capturing the attention of the redhead next to her.《Would you like to move a little ?》

With that, the red-eyed boy slowly turned his head towards her.

He looked at her first for a moment before lowering his gaze to the ground and giving her a small nod, allowing his younger sister to resume their path.

Nezuko therefore led him on her walk with precaution; not wanting to rush him too much, while Tanjiro followed her a bit limply, pulling his scarf up around his head as if to make a sort of hood.

The two Kamados therefore set out to cross the street, staying on the side and avoiding the center as much as possible so as not to mingle too much with the crowd.

This small walk had allowed Nezuko to admire a little more in detail the city which fascinated her more and more. Whenever something peculiar caught her attention - and there were a lot of them - she told her brother about it, hoping to clear his mind at the same time.

But except when the latter showed him what surprised her, Tanjiro was rather passive, doing nothing more than following her and never letting go of her hand.

Well, there was indeed this moment, when they passed by a certain alley with quite "special" noises, the teenager immediately rushed towards his little sister to cover up her eyes and encourage her to walk faster to go away...

Strange... very strange.

Aside from that, he remained for the most part completely silent and inactive, his walk becoming slower and slower and being less and less responsive to what his sister was showing him.

As they continued on their way, the younger one suddenly stopped in front of a few people standing there, seeming to be waiting for something in front of two parallel metal lines lying on the ground.

But hardly had she time to wonder what was happening when a sort of big machine moved at full speed just in front of her between the two crossing lines.

《Whoaaa !!! W-what is that ?!》She said, letting out a small shout of amazement in front of the machine.《I had never seen one before... It's crazy !!》

But she suddenly stopped in her wonder when she felt something pull slightly her arm.

The young girl turned back, only to see her older brother weakly holding the sleeve of her haori, looking exhausted.

《Big Brother ?》She started, softly, before worrying.《Oh- W-what's wrong...? Do you need something ?》

Tanjiro just hummed in response, before bringing one of his hands to his stomach.

Nezuko looked at him for a moment, losing herself in her thoughts.

It's true that he hadn't eaten anything other than a few onigiri during these two days of travel... It was therefore quite normal for him to be hungry; and the same goes for her too, since she had not eaten anything more than him.

But as she watched him more closely, it was clear that Tanjiro was less and less bearing the city. Moreover, the scent of so many humans around him must have been bothering him too...

With that, the young girl smiled tenderly at him.

《Come with me, Big Brother...》She told him, before leading him back on her walk.《Let's find a more quiet place to eat.》

03:57 AM

Tokyo


A few minutes later, the two Kamados had finally managed to get out of the big district.

It took longer than expected; they didn't think the city was so big to cross and hard to find your way around.

But luckily, with the help of a few nice people who kindly showed them the way out as well as the rental of a small noodle stand near town, they were finally able to reach their destination.

As they continued on their way, the younger let out a sigh of relief.

《Ah... I thought we would be stuck in forever...》She said.《I love the city, but it gets scary very quickly when you can't find a way to get out...》

Following this, the brunette looked up towards her older brother, worried.

《...Hey Big Brother, are you feeling better ?》

Tanjiro slightly blenched at his sister's call, then slowly turned his head towards her, letting her see his condition with her own eyes.

He was still not in great shape; still being a little affected by the city and hunger, but he already looked a little better than moments earlier.

Nezuko smiled softly at him, happy to see him in better shape before looking in front of her again.

《Do you think the stand is still far away ?She asked him.《We've been walking for a while now, and yet, no udon seller in sight...》

The redhead simply lowered his eyes to the ground in response. It had been a long time since they had left the city, it was to wonder if the inhabitants would have lie to them...

But when they had only taken a few more steps, the boy suddenly sniffed a scent in the distance, causing him to temporarily stop in his walk.

《Oh- What's happening ?》Nezuko asked, surprised, turning towards her older brother.

But Tanjiro didn't answer her directly. Instead, he simply looked up to where he thought the source of the scent was.

The young girl took a moment to think, but still found an answer that she shared with him exclaiming.

《Ah !! You smelled the udons, right ??》

The boy could only respond by nodding his head to her, to which her face lit up.

《Oh~ Awesome !!》She exclaimed, smiling fully before continuing.《That means we mustn't be very far from the stand !!》

The two siblings therefore continued their journey straight ahead, trusting the nose of the redhead as they moved closer and closer to their meal at each step they made.

Shortly after, both of them found themselves in a rather quiet street, completely deserted apart from the small stall which was indeed placed in a corner not far from them.

As they walked a little closer to it, they saw that it was run by a bald man, probably in his forties or fifties.

He was of average height, just a little taller than Tanjiro in comparison, and wore a yellowish black striped haori that was closed over a white top as well as wide pants of the same color. He also seemed to be a smoker, considering the pipe he was carrying in his mouth right next to his stand before the slayer spoke to him.

《Excuse me...》Nezuko asked, capturing the old man's attention as she smiled sweetly at him.《Can I order two bowls of udon, please ?》

The old man looked at them for a few seconds, surprised. This could be explained by the fact that he had never seen a boy with a piece of bamboo on his mouth, or also because two children were up so early with no adults to watch them.

Either way, he ended up answering her anyway, a hint of confusion still present in his voice.

《Hum... y-yes, of course. Wait a minute, I'll prepare you this.》He told her, before pointing to the bench in front of his stand.《You can sit here while waiting, if you want.》

The two teenagers therefore sat down on the bench that the storekeeper had indicated to them, while the latter went up to his stand behind them to prepare his noodles.

For her part, Nezuko was in heaven. She had been standing since she had woken up the day before in the early hours of the morning. So finally having the feeling that her legs were at rest after hours and hours of endless walking was extremely pleasant.

Then, a few minutes later, both bowls of noodles were served to them so that they could finally eat in peace.

《Ahh... it's been a while since I had eaten something hot...》Said the brunette, a small smile on her lips as she savored the taste of her dish.

She then turned her head towards her brother, who seemed to enjoy the meal just as much as she did, if not a little more.

He was regaining strength... that reassured her.

The young girl smiled more at his sight, then returned her gaze to her own bowl of udons to continue eating.

However, after a few more bites enough to make her bowl half full, Nezuko took a pause for a little while, bringing her hands holding the bowl closer to her knees.

Noticing his little sister's demeanor, Tanjiro temporarily stopped eating too, then slowly turned his head towards her with a questioning air.

With that, the girl looked at him again, before reassuring him.

《Ah- it's okay Big Brother, don't worry...!She told him, smiling, before lowering her eyes to the ground, narrowing them slightly in the process.《I just feel a little sleepy, that's all...》

The teenager looked at her for a little while, quite worried, but still ended up continuing his meal while keeping an eye on her.

It wasn't until a minute or two later that the boy suddenly felt something move closer to his shoulder, before leaning completely on it.

Indeed, the young slayer had finally fallen asleep after a while, her body leaning slightly on her brother's as she still held her bowl of udons in her hands.

Tanjiro smiled tenderly at her. It's true that she must be tired after all...

However, she really hadn't eaten much before falling asleep. He knew very well that she was always satisfied with the minimum, that she was younger and shorter than him which meant that she needed a little less food than him, but still... After two days without eating anything other than some onigiris, she was supposed to have a bigger appetite than that.

Discreetly, he removed the bowl from her hands and set it beside her on the bench so that she didn't have to worry about it while sleeping and to avoid her from accidentally dropping it. If necessary, he would wake her up before the noodles got cold.

He then continued to eat his bowl quietly, his sister still sleeping deeply against his shoulder.

Once having put his bamboo back on his mouth, the redhead looked down to the ground, not really knowing what else to look at.

He felt much better now, the udons had done their effect. Even though he would rather suffer from hunger than stealing the life of an innocent being, he didn't particularly like the feeling of emptiness in his stomach and the weakening it gave to his body, which was quite understandable.

Ah... if only all the nights could be like this one. A calm evening, without fights, without fear of losing his little sister to whom he cared so much.

Even though she had proven to him that she could fight, he really didn't like the idea of leaving her to fend for herself while he twiddled his thumbs and did nothing. It was so... frustrating to be the one to protect. He who used to manage everything, to be the eldest, he had more the impression of being her little brother rather than the big one.

Of course, it wasn't Nezuko that he blamed; he could never blame her for doing all of these efforts for him.

On the contrary, the one he resented was above all himself.

He was angry with himself for leaving all the responsibilities on her shoulders. To let her fight, risk her life when there was nothing he could do but get her into trouble. Even if he helped her during fights, it was still her who defeated the demons and who helped him in the end, since she was the only one of the two who could kill them.He blamed himself...

It was quite common for him. Even when nothing was his fault, he couldn't help but feel guilty.

However, there was one other person to whom he was particularly mad at.

Well, "person". If only you could qualify this being as a "person" after all the miserable things he has done in his life.

This being, it was...

.

.

.

.

.

.

.

.

.

.

.

Suddenly his eyes widened.

Another scent had caught his attention. A very peculiar scent.

Slowly, he turned his head towards its source, which happened to be the city.This scent...It wasn't unknown to him...

A mixed look of dread, stupor and rage formed on his face as he kept his eyes on the city.That same scent he had smelled during that famous night...

Could it be...

No...

It was impossible...

.

.

.

.

.

The demon they were looking for all this time... would be here, right under their noses...?

.

.

.

.

.

.

It seemed so unreal, and yet...

The more he inhaled the scent of the demon, the more all the rage he contained kept growing.

He was right there...

The murderer of their family... the one who shattered their lives forever...

.

.

...was there, somewhere in the city at their feet.

.

.

.

As he slowly stood up, the boy dropped the empty bowl of udons he held in his hands to the floor, breaking as soon as it touched the ground.

He just couldn't stand there idly by while knowing what was going on.

Even if he didn't know what he was going to do after that, he had to meet this demon at all costs.

He had to see him again.

《Big Brother...?》Nezuko called him, in a small voice.

Surprised, he turned slowly to her.

Even though she just woke up, she already seemed to worry greatly about his condition. It had to be said that he wasn't really acting normally.

But it seemed that his own face betrayed him even more as the girl looked at him even more worried.

《W-what's wrong...?? Did you smell something ?》She insisted, turning to him a little more.

But of course he couldn't answer her.

He couldn't tell her what he smelled. Nor explain the situation to her.

Tanjiro looked at her for a moment, before lowering his gaze to the ground, hesitating.

He had to go see this demon... he couldn't have a clear conscience if he didn't.

But he still couldn't leave his little sister here alone, especially after she woke up. It would surely hurt her.

In addition, it was the chance for his sister to kill the demon that had murdered their family, which in itself was one of their goals.

But he didn't want to risk taking her with him either. This demon was far too dangerous for her...

What if he hurt her ?

What if he turns her into a demon too ?

.

.

Nezuko could see he was hesitating.

She could tell her brother was scared, and it was surely once again related to herself and to a demon seeing the expression that was on his face.

He still doubted her...

She understood it, in some way. It was normal after all in their case.

But before she could even intervene again, Tanjiro suddenly rushed towards the path they had taken to come here before scampering off at full speed, not glancing behind him once during the action.

Panicked, the younger one immediately stood up.

《B-BIG BROTHER !!》She exclaimed.《WAIT !》

And so, she set off in pursuit.

It wasn't that hard for her to follow her older brother. They both had regained their strength moments earlier, and after one had transformed into a demon and that the other had been trained, they were pretty much at equal speed. The only point that could possibly disadvantage the brunette was that she started late and in a hurry unlike him.

Only a minute or two later, the two siblings met again at the entrance to Asakusa. (A simple bowl of noodles and some sleep can make a big difference...)

It's at this moment; after yet another call from his younger sister, that Tanjiro decided to stop temporarily in his run, turning back to her again with the same expression on his face, although a little more worried that she had followed him so far and that she surely wanted to continue accompanying him.

She joined him a few seconds later, then immediately took a piece of his jacket as if to hold him back and prevent him from escaping once more.

《Big Brother !!》She began, before softening her voice and the expression on her face.《I don't know what you smelled exactly... But that's not a reason for you to go alone... I... I want to stay with you, Big Brother... I promised to protect you and to not be separated from you anymore... S-so- let me come with you... I don't want something else to happen to you without me being here once again...》

This time, the redhead thought a little more about his choice.

The scent of the demon now even more present than before didn't help him to be really objective at all. It took him a lot of courage and will to overcome this and finally meet his sister's expectations.

In an instant, the brunette felt her brother's hand firmly take hers before dragging her along on his run into the middle of the crowd.

Nezuko looked at him, a little surprised.

She didn't expect his gesture to be so sudden. But she was still glad that he had finally agreed to let her accompany him.

With a little more attention, she noticed that he always seemed to keep her far enough away from him, reaching his arm back as best he could, as if to pull her away from what was ahead.

On his side, as soon as they were in the middle of the alley, Tanjiro felt that the scent was gradually coming to its peak.

They were almost there...

After sinking deeper into the crowd, he could finally see the silhouette giving off the scent.

He was only a few steps away...

A man from the back, looking quite tall, wearing dark colored clothes.

He then rushed towards him, not caring about anything else except the safety of his sister, whom he always kept behind him.

.

.

.

.

.

.

.

Tanjiro blamed himself. He blamed himself for letting his little sister putting everything on her shoulders when there was nothing he could do to help her.

However, there was another person in this world who he resented.

.

.

.

.

.

.

.

.

.

.

.

.

.

.

.

.

.

.

.

.

.

.

.

Once behind him, the boy extended his hand to his shoulder, wanting to see the face he had met two years ago again.

.

.

.

.

.

.

.

.

.

.

.

.

.

.

.

.

.

.

.

.

.

.

.

.

And finally, the man turned around.

His skin was pale, as pale as he remembered it.

He still had those bright red eyes, those eyes that now looked like his as if he had made a copy of them.

And his long, curly hair that was as black as jet...

Nothing had changed...

He hadn't changed from an inch since the day he first saw him...

Faced with this, the boy's anger increased even more. Seeing his enemy again after two years of flight put him in a state of overwhelming rage.

Nezuko looked at her brother intently.

He looked so furious...

This man was surely the one he was looking for, and noticeably, he didn't seem to like him a lot.

However, when she observed the young man in front of her, she saw nothing very bad about him.

He was a run-of-the-mill man who didn't seem to be an overly bad person...

The man was just looking at them questioningly, staring first at Tanjiro and then at herself as he waited for them to explain.

《B-big Brother...?》She asked in a small voice.

But the redhead didn't even bother to glance at her. He just tightened his hand around hers as he didn't take his eyes off the man.

With that, the stranger spoke.

.

.

《Yes ? Can I help you ?》He asked them politely.

Again, the teenaged-girl was a little puzzled.

He really didn't seem like a bad person… he spoke so kindly to them even though they had approached him so rudely in the middle of the street.

.

.

.

《Daddy...? What's happening ?》

.

.

.

As the man turned fully towards them, they could see a little girl in his arms, as well as a young woman beside them.

Strangely, her brother seemed in shock before relapsing into a deep anger.

《It's okay honey, don't worry.》He reassured her gently, before being interrupted by the woman.

《Do you know them ?》

The stranger looked back at the two children before finally answering.

.

.

.

.

.

.

.

.

.

.

.

.

.

.

.

《No. I never saw them in my entire life.》

.

.

.

.

.

.

.

With that, the girl turned to her older brother again.

《Maybe you got the wrong person...?》She said, softly.《He really doesn't look mean...》

For once, the redhead turned his head towards her, but he wasn't really giving her the same look she was thinking.

He seemed angry at first of course, although he tried to soften it up in front of his sister. But then looked at her in a desperate way, as if he was begging her to believe him.

《Young lady ? Could you please explain to me what is going on ?》The man resumed, looking the brunette in the eyes again.

The young girl then raised her free hand in the air to wave it slightly, before answering him.

《Oh-- W-we're sorry, sir...!! I-I... I think we mistook you for someone else.》

《Hm, I see.》He answered her, before resuming.《In that case, if I am not the one you are looking for, could you please tell him to let go of me ? I got important things to do.》

But ironically, the young demon tightened his shoulder even more, categorically refusing to let him escape.

Seeing this, Nezuko decided to intervene.

《B-big Brother...!!》She whispered, nervous.《You'll hurt him if you continue...》

But the boy wasn't listening to her. No matter how hard she tried to dissuade him, he refused to budge.

She still had doubts at first that maybe this man was a demon, and wanted to give her brother a chance. But now, it was clear to her that this man was indeed innocent.

He was married, father of a family, loving, caring, polite... nothing about him was related directly or indirectly to the cruel and pitiless demons she had encountered.

Even though she knew Tanjiro had a very good sense of smell, he could very well have made a mistake... Maybe this man has a scent very similar to the demons and that it was easy to confuse them ?

Faced with this, the man sighed lightly before dropping one of his arms at his side.

The red-eyed boy immediately withdrew his hand from his sister's and instead placed an arm in front of her, pulling her further away from the man.

But before she could say anything, the girl could have sworn to have seen the arm of the dark haired man move very quickly towards the neck of a passer-by in the street, before returning to its original position.

.

.

.

《AHHH !!!》

.

.

.

It wasn't until a few seconds later that a sudden scream came out from behind the stranger.

The passer-by he had moved his arm over suddenly threw himself at the girl next to him, biting her shoulder until it bleed as the poor woman screamed in pain.

Nezuko stared at the scene, speechless..

.'No... it's not...'

As the red-eyed man's wife brought her hands to her lips in dread, the little girl in her arms began to sob, frightened.

《D-daddy-- I'm scared...》She said, burying her face a little deeper into his shoulder.

《It's okay, honey... Don't be afraid, I am here.》He consoled her.

This time, Nezuko didn't mind the scene at her side, and immediately took her older brother's hand before rushing towards the two individuals and removing the scarf from her neck.《Quick, Big Brother !!》

The teenager therefore finally let go of the stranger's shoulder, who watched them run away towards the two passers-by with scorn.

Once the two young people reached, Nezuko spoke again.

《Take care of her, I'll help the demon...!She told him.

Tanjiro nodded quickly, before removing his scarf as well.

The girl with pink eyes then pushed the demon away from his victim before sitting him down in front of her and rolling her scarf over his mouth as a muzzle. She then held him back by his wrists which she had put behind his back, then glanced at her brother :

He got directly behind the young woman and pressed on her wound with his scarf. In this way, the flow of blood would be reduced more quickly.

The slayer stood there for a moment longer, watching her brother intently before slowly lowering her gaze to the ground, still in shock at what had just happened.

'... The only demon able to transform humans is the original demon...' She thought, as she observed the demon she was holding more attentively. 'This man... he was still a human just a few seconds ago, that's for sure... it wasn't until this man raised his arm to him that he...'

With that, the young girl's hands tightened slightly on those of the young man.

'No... I can't believe it... I didn't notice a thing...' She said to herself, frowning. 'He's able to pretend to be a human so well that I fell for it myself...'

.

'Damn it... I should have listened to Big Brother... why didn't I trust him...?! He had tried so hard to warn me and I just...'

Gradually, rage rose in her in turn.

.

.

.

.

.

'Idiot... idiot, idiot...!! Idiot !!!'

.

.

.

How could she had been fooled at this point...?

She had preferred to believe this stranger, this scum, rather than her own brother...

Meanwhile, Muzan continued to observe the two teenagers.

Luckily for him, the plan he had made to get rid of them had been successful. Now all that remained to do was fleeing.

《Come on, dear… we mustn't stay here, it's dangerous.》He said to his wife, who quickly nodded.

Therefore, the three of them walked away. It was only after a few steps where he thought he was done that another scream was heard behind him :

At the call of his name, the demon didn't turn around and instead continued to walk straight ahead. However, it was easy to identify who owned the voice.

Nezuko had half turned to him, still holding the new-born demon in her hands.

She was furious. The feeling that her older brother had of finding this despicable being who had made them suffer so much, them and many other people after two years, mixed with the feeling of helplessness and guilt at not having recognized him earlier and not being able to do anything except letting him flee once more filled her with rage.

《YOU MAY HAVE DECEIVED ME TODAY, BUT I WILL FIND YOU BACK SOON I SWEAR !》She continued, as he keep walking away, pretending to ignore her.

.

.

.

.

.

.

.

.

.

《I WILL NEVER FORGIVE YOU FOR WHAT YOU DID ! NEITHER TO ME, NOR TO ALL THE OTHERS THAT YOU MADE SUFFER, HUMANS OR DEMONS ! I WILL MAKE YOU PAY FOR YOUR ACTS, NO MATTER HOW MANY TIMES YOU WILL TRY TO RUN AWAY !!》

.

.

《AND WHEN THIS DAY WILL COME...》

.

.

.

.

.

.

.

.

.

.

.

The young girl paused in her sentence, taking time to regain the air necessary to pursue it while screaming even louder.

And so, she let him go once more.

Not having done anything when the being she hated the most in the world had been right there in front of her still left her extremely furious and upset, but at least, she gave him the message that she wasn't planning on leaving him wander eternally in this world.

She wasn't sure if he recognized her brother or not. After all, two years had passed and other things might have occupied his mind. But maybe seeing him again made him remember him, especially since her brother wasn't a demon like the others.

On his side, Tanjiro had been staring at his sister since she had started her speech.

Seeing her unconsciously defending Muzan hurt him a lot. It was really frustrating to be the only one who knew who this man really was, and for a moment, he was really afraid she would never understand him.

Therefore, the fact that she had finally realized who he was and immediately went against him gave him a lot of relief.

But that moment of respite didn't last long before men from the crowd intervened.

.

.

.

《Who do you think you are, young girl ?!》

《Release this man immediately !》

.

.

.

.

.

.

Nezuko then turned towards those calling her, that were actually police officers.

.

.

《Why the hell did you muzzle him ??!》

《Plus, you mustn't threat someone to death !!》

.

.

The girl looked at them a little confused, before finally answering them.

《W-wait !!! It's a misunderstanding, I promise !!》She tried to explain.

.

.

《Yes, of course ! Free this poor man, instead !》A policeman ordered.

《He's looking quite weird... Is he drunk...?Another whispered.

.

.

《I-I'm really sorry, misters- but I can't !》

.

.

《Huh ?! What do you mean "you can't" ?! It's an order, kid ! Obey !》

.

.

Nezuko frowned slightly before answering them again.

《I can't let him go ! He could hurt or kill other people, and I can't let this happen !!》

.

.

《Enough, young girl !! You will release him immediately !》

.

.

《I can't !!!》

.

.

《Make her let go !》

With that, the officers threw themselves on her, trying to get her away from the young man she was holding back as best she could.

As they continued to try to pull her back, the teenager hold on to the demon as much as possible, desperately trying not to let him go.

《When will you finally let him go ?!!!》

《P-please sir !!! Try to understand ! Let me take care of it, please !》

《RELEASE HIM, DAMN IT !》

《N-no !!》

Suddenly, one of them stood up, holding a long stick in his hand as all the other policemen went away.

《I see, you're a little delinquent !!》He said.

Even though she couldn't see the man behind her back, she could suspect he was planning to do something to her as she heard her brother crying from afar.

They were probably going to hit her.

But that didn't matter. She wasn't going to release this man, no matter what.

《Since you are so resilient...》He continued, as he raised his arm holding the object.

Nezuko gritted her teeth, preparing for the impact.

Just before the policeman could hit her, a wave of colorful flower patterns began to surround the young girl, protecting her from their bad intentions.

《W-what is that--?!》One of them stammered, as he stepped back.

《Where do these patterns come from...?!!》

Slowly, Nezuko opened her eyes again to contemplate the new landscape that surrounded her.

'What is...' She thought to herself, as she stared at the hovering patterns around her. 'I-it looks like...'

'A blood demon art...'

As she turned her head to her left, she could see that her brother and the lady he was caring for were also inside this flowery bubble.

The boy seemed disoriented as well, looking around him while frowning a little. He also seemed to sniff something in the air, surely a demon's scent from the expression on his face, which somehow confirmed her theory.

But before she could ask him anything, a soft voice in front of her called her out.

.

.

.

.

.

.

.

《From what I could hear, you treat demons like human beings ?》

.

.

.

.

.

.

.

The pink-eyed girl then turned her head towards the source of the voice, to finally see who it belonged to :

In front of her was standing a young woman in a dark purple kimono with colorful flowers patterns on it, similar to the landscape. She had dark hair tied in a bun at the back of her head, as well as large, lavender eyes that seemed to grow darker on the top of her irises.

The strokes of her face were thin and soft, which strangely encouraged her to trust her even though she was certainly a demon. The way she spoke to her was also quite benevolent, without wickedness or aggressiveness that demons other than her brother were usually endowed with. Truth be told, it was possible that she felt so safe around the young woman because of her very similar appearance to her mother.

She was also accompanied by a young man shorter than her, who had green hair with black tips and almond eyes of a pale and light purple.

His skin was quite pale too, and unlike the woman next to him, he seemed to have a permanently pissed off expression.

He was dressed in a pale blue shirt, as well as a white haori and midnight blue hakama pants.

《Even being aware of this man's new nature and the injury he inflicted on this young woman, you still persist in helping him regardless of whether he has lost his humanity or not...》The young woman continued, before gently rolling up one of the sleeves of her kimono to show her her bloodied arm.《That is why I decided to lend you a hand...》

Almost instantly, the scratch marks disappeared from her skin, leaving it intact again, leaving no doubt as to her nature.

Nezuko bowed her eyebrows, looking confused.

《W-what...?》She stammered.《B-but I... Aren't you...?》

《Yes, you are right.》She cut her off, making her eyes widen slightly.《I am...》

The young Kamado looked at her, stunned.

A demon... a kind demon...?

So far, the only demon she knew who had good intentions and who had kept his humanity was her brother, Tanjiro. Could it be that he's not the only one in this case...? Are there other demons still capable of showing humanity ?

But again, a question arose...

.

.

.

.

.

.

.

.

.

.

.

.

.

.

.

.

.

.

.

Was she falling into a trap again ?

.

.

.

.

.

.

.

.

.

.

.

.

.

.

.

.

.

.

.

.

.

After all, Muzan too seemed devoid of all kinds of bad intentions towards her at first. This demon could very well be doing the same thing right now.

.

.

.

.

.

.

.

.

.

.

However, her next words reassured her in her thoughts :

《I am also a doctor; as much for demons as for humans. However, you have nothing to fear from me; I am on your side.》

The demon then looked at her seriously, letting her arm fall to her body before speaking calmly.

《I also... wish the death of Muzan Kibutsuji.》


[...]


As he walked his wife and daughter back to a car, the young child who was now in her mother's arms looked at him sadly.

《Aren't you coming with us, Daddy...?》She asked, pouting.

《No, my dear... I have some important things to do.》Muzan replied, kindly.《I also have to go take a look in the street we were before to see what happened, that intrigues me.》

《Be careful, okay...?》The young woman spoke up.《It is pretty dangerous over there, I wouldn't want anything to happen to you...》

《Don't worry, it will be fine...! I am just going to talk to the police officers, that's all.》He said, smiling.《Go ahead, I will join you later.》

The two humans got in the car, before the little girl approached the window.

《Hey, you'll be home soon, right...?》

《Yes, don't worry. Meanwhile, be a good daughter to your mom, okay ?》He said, before addressing the driver.《Bring them back to our residence, please.》

So the car started up, leaving the demon alone in the street with a few other people here and there.

But he didn't seem to care since he preferred to head for the dark alley behind his back, thus putting himself out of sight.

《Come on bro~ we go to another bar ?》

《Haha ! Are you sure you're okay ?》A girl replied.

.

.

As the drunk man was walking backwards without looking behind him, he decided to answer her.

《Of coouuurse~ It's alright, it's alright ! See, I'm not even yet-》

Suddenly he bumped into something, interrupting him in his sentence.

The young man turned to see what he had hit, and finally saw Muzan standing still, his head lowered to the ground as he remained silent.

《Huh ? You've got somethin' against me, asshole ?!》He got mad.《Watch out when you're walkin', you shithead !》

The demon stayed silent a moment longer, but ended up answering him anyway.

《My apologies, sir.》

Simple. Polite. Quite the opposite of the language used by the young alcoholic.

However, just when he thought he was done with him, the younger didn't let him go.

《Hey, wait a sec !》He told him, as he held him back by the shoulder.

《Please excuse me, I'm in a hurry.》

《Huuuh ?? What are those shitty formulas ?》The young man insisted, before turning around to observe him more closely.《Hey, you're pretty well dressed, you nob ! Ahah, and I see that you're pretty pale, too... Did you look at yourself ?》

.

.

.

.

.

.

.

.

.

.

.

《It looks like you're about to die-》

.

.

.

.

.

.

.

.

.

.

.

.

.

.

.

.

.

.

.

.

.

.

.

.

BAM !

At the last word of his sentence, the drunk man was suddenly struck by the demon, sending him to the other side of the alley.

His body hit the wall before his blood began to flow to the floor.

《YAYA !》The young girl exclaimed, running towards the unconscious young man.

As he resumed walking towards the other two individuals, the tall man who was surely the older brother of the one he had hit called out to him.

《HEY ! WHAT DID YOU DO TO MY BROTHER ?!》

《O-oh my...》The girl whispered, before turning to them.《H-he... H-HE'S DEAD !! HE KILLED HIM !!! HE DOESN'T BREATHE ANYMORE !!!

With that, the tall man glared at Muzan, before preparing to punch him.

.

.

《YOU BASTARD !!!!》

.

.

.

.

.

.

.

.

.

.

.

.

.

.

.

.

.

.

.

.

.

.

.

.

.

.

.

.

.

.

.

.

.

.

.

.

.

BAM !

But immediately, the red-eyed man sent him waltzing through the air with a kick.

The man then landed on the roof of a house next door, also leaving forever this world.

Therefore, only the girl was left, who was looking at the demon in dread as he slowly walked towards her.

《Tell me...》He began, bringing one of his hands to her cheek.《Does my face look pale to you ? Am I looking sick to you ?》

.

.

.

.

.

.

.

.

.

.

.

.

《Do you think I don't have much time left ? That I am at the gates of death ?》

.

.

.

.

.

.

.

.

.

.

.

.

.

The woman dared not answer, too frightened by the man standing in front of her.

《No, no, no...》He whispered to her, before placing a finger in front of his lips.《I am an immortal being, almost reaching the peak of perfection.》

As he said these words, the nail on his index finger took on a dull blue color before stretching out to take the shape of a claw, a common trait to demons.

He then brought it to the forehead of the young woman, who was staring at his finger slowly advancing towards her with fear, until he suddenly buried it in her skin.

Her eyes widened as a sharp pain spread throughout her entire body.

《What do you think happens to humans when they receive too much of my blood ?He asked her calmly, knowing full well that the woman was in no state to answer him.

Red and blue veins formed on her skin as uncontrollable spasms presented themselves on her body.

《Your human bodies cannot stand this sudden change.》He explained, removing his finger.《It will cause the destruction of your cells. Therefore, death.

However, this didn't stop the condition of the young woman, who now had blue skin and the white part of her eyes having turned into a bloody-red.

Her orbs twitched all over the place as she desperately tried to breathe unsuccessfully.

As a result, her body twisted, seeming as if it was about to explode before ending up in simple mush, gradually spreading out onto the floor. Her clothes which had fallen to the ground were the only remaining traces of her existence.

The demon slowly stood up, simply staring at the wall in front of him before snapping his fingers.

Immediately, two more demons appeared behind his back. One being a brunette girl with orange tips, wearing a kimono of this same color and a black haori, and the other a dark-haired boy too, dressed in a green kimono topped by a black haori with large green stripes on his sleeves.

The two were kneeling behind him, standing ready to receive his orders.

《Bring me back the head of the demon slayer wearing cards as earrings.》He began.《I also want the demon muzzled with a piece of bamboo to disappear from this world.》

《Yes.》Replied one.

《At your service.》Replied the other.

The two demons then disappeared as quickly as they had appeared, leaving Muzan alone in the middle of the alley.

Gradually, he lost himself in his thoughts, thinking of the two Kamados he had just ordered his demons to kill.

'This boy...' He said to himself, thinking back to the demon with the checkered haori. 'It is the one I transformed two years ago... the previous wearer of the earrings...'

He then remembered the night he had attacked their family.

He remembered every member, from the mother to the youngest child. They were six in all, including five children, and the oldest wearing the earrings.

'I thought he died on that night...' He thought. 'After seeing my attempts to turn his family members in vain, he threw himself in front of his siblings, trying to protect them unsuccessfully, and got hit. It wasn't until he fell to the ground and that I thought he was dead that I could see his earrings... but in the end, he is alive... and turned into a demon that escaped my control...'

'And this girl...'

He thought back to the demon slayer with the pink haori he had met some moments ago.

'She was absent, that night... yet, she called him "Big Brother"... he surely gave her his earrings when he awoke, and after that...'

Thinking about this, a similar image crossed his mind.

A demon slayer, also possessing the same earrings as Nezuko as well as long black hair with red tips tied in a ponytail.

He was pointing him with his red saber, while he was on the ground, completely helpless in front of him.

This had the gift of enraging him even more.

Author's Notes

- At first glance, I wasn't very satisfied with this chapter ;-;

I sometimes have the impression of not knowing how to write, or at least that I can't write as "good" as usual--

(I'm not a professional writer, I only do that for fun and I don't really know what is "good" writing and "bad" writing, but I DON'T KNOW HOW TO EXPLAIN MYSELF TAT

It makes sense to me in French, but I can't translate it in English X'0)

--and in this chapter, I had this impression x"0

But after some time and after having modified it a bit, my opinion somehow softened a little :

- I imagined that Nezuko wouldn't have the same problems as Tanjiro facing the city !

I don't think I have any strong arguments for that, I just wanted to point it out here X'D

When I make changes between Tanjiro and Nezuko, it's sometimes very thoughtful or sometimes instinctive, I put myself in the place of Nezuko's character and imagine how she would react or what she would say in the different situations in relation to the little that we have seen of her human personality in the anime and in the manga :)

- "Well, there was indeed this moment, when they passed by a certain alley with quite "special" noises, the teenager immediately rushed towards his little sister to cover up her eyes and encourage her to walk faster to go away... Strange... very strange."

I know, you know, he knows, we know, they know, I was talking about the scene where they accidentally walk past the alley where a woman and a man were doing... the "thing".

Strange, strange indeed...

- Yes, IT IS TANJIRO AND NEZUKO WHO MEET MUZAN IN THE STREET UvU

I needed Tanjiro's flair to lead Nezuko to Muzan, otherwise... well, I'm not sure how she could have done it ;-;

Also, I like the misunderstanding that this resulted in afterwards :)

- By the way, let's talk about this misunderstanding...

Nezuko had no way of recognizing Muzan's demon status during this scene, since firstly, he acts in a very "human" way, and secondly, none of his demonic characteristics are apparent (slit pupils, fangs, claws...)

So it made sense to me that she couldn't see that he was a demon, like all the other human beings on the street :

Also, I had the idea of this misunderstanding a long time ago now, so I'm happy to be able to show it to you !! X'3

- When Nezuko captures the new demon, she doesn't pin him to the ground like Tanjiro in the original version but simply sit him on his knees and forces him to put his hands behind his back to immobilize him. In addition, she wraps her scarf around the lower part of his face in order to make a muzzle similar to her brother, and doesn't put it in his mouth unlike him lmaoo X'D

I don't know why, but I could see her doing that, not doing everything like her brother in the cannon :)

Also, it is Tanjiro who takes care of helping the injured woman, and not some passers-by. In particular because he wasn't going to stand there without doing anything, and also because otherwise, he could very well have joined Muzan to hunt him, or else took care of the demon so that Nezuko could kill Muzan :")

- So, unlike the cannon, Muzan orders Susumaru and Yahaba (the two demons he summons in the alley) to attack not only Nezuko, but also Tanjiro ! OoO

Since he didn't know that Nezuko had become a demon at this point of the story in the cannon, here on the contrary, he knows very well that Tanjiro has become one and that he has escaped his control since he shows explicitly that he's against him, protects his human sister, and takes care of a subsequently injured human. So I think it makes sense that he wants him to be killed too, just like he wants Nezuko's death later in the manga for the same reasons :)

(I don't really think this is a big spoiler so yeah óvò")

- Also, I imagined how the tragic night of this story had unfolded in my fanfic for a while now UvU

(Okay since chapter 1 but it's only now that you see it lol)

Obviously Muzan shouldn't see Tanjiro's earrings at that moment, otherwise he would have immediately killed him and not tried to turn him into a demon.

So I imagined that Tanjiro had arrived in the room in the heat of the moment, and his entry was so fast that Muzan couldn't see the earrings he was wearing at first.

(Plus his hair hid it even more :0

Damn, poor Muzan isn't really helped there ;-;)

It was only when our redhead fell to the ground due to the implantation of Muzan's blood which caused his subsequent transformation into a demon, that the original demon could see his earrings.

And there, you probably ask yourself "Then, why didn't he kill him ?"

Well yes but actually no ōvō

Muzan thought Tanjiro was already dead, just like in the original version : when Nezuko becomes human again, she remembers the words Muzan said when he had just injected his blood in : "Ah, I'm really not able to create a demon able to withstand sunlight."

He thought he couldn't create one because for him Nezuko was already dead. So I find it logical that he has the same reasoning with Tanjiro :)

- Oh yes, I made a Muzan info sheet ;D

And as you can see... well there isn't much TvT

Instead of giving him a date of birth as well as a precise age, I preferred to remain vague to amplify the mysterious side of the character u-u

I would have liked not to give him height or weight, but I think it's better that I give him some to contrast later when he changes his appearance ! ùvú
