Nezuko continues to stare at the slipping blood of Sanemi's forearm. There is something holding Nezuko back from lunging at the forearm and give it a good bite out of it. Doing so will completely debunk everything Oyakata, Tanjiro, and BoBoiBoy had said.

"What's the matter, demon? Come on! You know you want it." Sanemi urged her on. Nezuko growled even louder.

With every Hashira present, the eager ones are still planting their sights to the two people behind Oyakata and the twins so that they'll know if Nezuko is truly what the letter and their statements says she is. The stoic ones already knew the outcome of this or probably expected a fortuitous result.

Iguro tightens his strength to dig the two boys deeper to the ground, much to their pained expressions and grunts.

"Iguro, you're digging into them too hard. Ease up a bit please." Shinobu asked Iguro to lighten his restraints.

"I'm only holding them down because they're trying to move." Iguro replied casually. Both Tanjiro and BoBoiBoy were giving their best to get out of his iron grips. Bloodshot eyes and popping veins were present.

"Kamado, BoBoiBoy, if you use any Breathing Techniques while your lungs are being squeezed, your veins will burst." Shinobu explained.

"Their veins will burst!" Tengen liked the sound of that. "I like it! Sounds flamboyant! Come on! Start bursting!"

Mitsuri tilts her head at hearing Tengen saying that and worried what would happen to the boys. She is even more worried at the white-streaked haired boy since he looked like he's about to explode in rage.

"Poor souls... Such weak, pathetic children. Namu Amida Butsu." Gyomei said, still clasping his hands in a prayer.

Nezuko heavily breathes and veins bulges on the sides of her head and on her forehead. Blood seeped to the floor mat. She is having trouble keeping up with her resistance to hold back the urge to devour Sanemi. The latter cackled, almost having Nezuko right where he wants her to be.

Tanjiro and BoBoiBoy gave every ounce of their strength to get themselves free from the rope as well as from Iguro. With their yelling increasing in volume, they forcefully broke the rope that bound their hands.

Iguro acted out of surprise and lets them go. Giyu grabbed his arm and sweeped his leg away, giving the boys room to get a move on. They ran to the porch.

"Nezuko!" They said simultaneously to make sure their voice reached her.

Speaking of the Kamado demon, in her vision, the first thing she sees is the encounter between them and Giyu two years ago.

"She's my sister! She's my younger sister! Nezuko is different! Though I don't know how it happened!" A 13-year-old Tanjiro defended her against Giyu.

"Please listen to him! Don't kill his only family left!" She heard BoBoiBoy, 14 years of age, making a stand and stood beside Tanjiro.

The next scene in her perspective brings her in the kitchen with Tanjuro Kamado and Kie Kamado, Tanjiro and Nezuko's father and mother. They all looked at Nezuko while saying unheard words.

She found herself outside of their household. The breezing wind flew and cherry blossom trees blooming in this season. Shigeru ran around with Nezuko's haori holding in his hands. Rokuta clinging on to Nezuko asking if she wants to play with him. Takeo chased Shigeru playfully. Hanako tip-toing playfully then joins along with her siblings having fun.

"All humans are your family. Protect humans." Urokodaki's voice rang in her head.

Tanjiro lastly appears, waving over someone who is visiting them, BoBoiBoy. His face filled with genuine happiness while he is holding a basket filled with fruits. He puts them away and the two looked at the female Kamado with looks of positivity.

"Humans are to be protected and saved. Never hurt them."

She then finally sees herself. Without the muzzle covering her mouth as she looks at the boys in front of them.

"I will never hurt them."

The Nezuko right now still has her sights on the blood. Heavily breathing, she mustered up the strength to turn her head away and shut her eyes to prevent seeing more of his blood.

Sanemi gasped when he sees this. The fact that this demon resisted to get his blood was completely baffling to him.

The boys let out a relieved sigh, knowing that Nezuko isn't going to be killing anyone. Though BoBoiBoy slightly smiles because he still believes Nezuko is still human from the inside.

"What just happened?" Oyakata asked due to his blindness.

"The demon girl turned her back in disgust." One of his daughters answered and described. "Although she'd been stabbed three times by Shinazugawa, and despite his flaunting of his bloody arm in her face, she restrained herself and did not bite."

Oyakata smiled. "So now, it's been proved that Nezuko won't attack humans, right?"

Iguro roughly removes his wrist being grabbed by Giyu. "What do you think you're doing, Tomioka?"

"Boys..." Oyakata called. "I'm sure that even after this, there are some who can't accept Nezuko. You must prove it to them starting now. That both of you and Nezuko can fight as Demon Slayers. That you can be useful."

As they realized what they are sitting there for, they knelt and bowed their heads as a sign of respect.

'His voice... His voice hits me like a cloud fell on my head. I feel so at ease just by listening to him.' BoBoiBoy thought.

"Go out and defeat a Twelve Kizuki. Do that, and you'll both be accepted by all. And it will give more weight to your words."

The white-streaked haired boy wants to speak up that they have already defeated Rui, who is a Twelve Kizuki. However, in doing so would bring a ridiculous argument among Hashiras as they'll find it unbelievable again.

'I guess we have to do it again, even if it means getting ourselves into more serious situations that requires life or death.'

"I... Nezuko, BoBoiBoy, and I will defeat Muzan Kibutsuji! We will do it for sure! Strike with the sword that will stop the chain of grief!" Tanjiro fails to realize what the Master had stated and that brings a giggle from BoBoiBoy.

"T-Tanjiro..." BoBoiBoy tries to not burst out in laughter. "The Master meant that we have to defeat a Twelve Kizuki. Not Muzan yet."

"He's right. As you're both ill-equipped to do so right now, let's start by defeating a Twelve Kizuki, all right?" Oyakata clarified.

At that moment, Tanjiro's face had popped tomato red from the embarrassing comment he said earlier. His hair spiked.

"Yes, sir."

"Pfft!" Mitsuri almost laughed her head off. 'You mustn't laugh! You mustn't, you mustn't, you mustn't!'

Shinobu, Gyomei, and Tengen are also the victims of wanting to laugh at Tanjiro's dramatic sentence.

"It goes without saying that the Hashiras of the Demon Slayer Corps have phenomenal skills. After training themselves to death, they have defied death, and they've also defeated Twelve Kizukis." Oyakata said.

"Hm! A good attitude to have!" Kyojuro exclaimed.

"That is why Hashiras receive respect and preferential treatment. So, boys, mind your manners when you speak."

They sat up. "Y-Yes, sir!"

"One more thing, Sanemi... Obanai..."

Iguro hung his head down. "Don't torment the younger ones too much."

"As you wish." Iguro said, almost guilty of what he did to both of the boys.

Sanemi also bowed in respect to the Master's wish, while Nezuko is in her box letting out steam like an angry child.

"As you wish."

"Boys, we have concluded our business with you. You may step back." Oyakata now dismissed their trial.

'Okay, now what? Now that we're done with the trial, where can we go?' BoBoiBoy thought as he didn't think of what to do after this.

Fortunately, Shinobu raised her hand. "In that case, allow me to take Kamado and BoBoiBoy into my house."

Tanjiro just spaced out after hearing it. Shinobu clapped her hands to summon her fellow Kakushis.

"All right, then! Take them away please!"

The female Kakushi ran all the way to pick up Nezuko's box. Once Nezuko spotted her, she slowly stepped back with a sweat drop.

"Pardon me for cutting in front of you!" The male Kakushi hastily bowed to the Master and to the Hashiras before picking up Tanjiro. He grabbed Tanjiro by the collar of his uniform and took off in great speed.

"Hey kid, can you walk?" The female Kakushi asked as she carried the box on her back.

"Yeah. I can still walk." He replied.

"Good. Now please hurry up because we don't want to interrupt their meeting!" She grabbed his hand quickly and dragged him away from the rest of the high-ranking Demon Slyers and the Master.

"Now then, let us begin the Hashira Meet—"

"HOLD ON A MINUTE!"

The sound of Tanjiro's voice boomed around the corner as he ran back.

"COME BACK HERE!" The male and female Kakushi chased him until they pinned him down to the ground.

"Please allow me to head-butt that man covered in scars!" Tanjiro requested. "I gotta—"

"SHUT UP! KEEP YOUR MOUTH SHUT!" The male Kakushi exclaimed while he and the female Kakushi repeatedly hit Tanjiro although barely their hits.

BoBoiBoy stood a feet away, watching the stunt being played out with a blank face.

"Don't make this harder on any of us, Tanjiro. Like, c'mon man!" BoBoiBoy sweatdrops.

"I gotta head-butt him as many times as he stabbed Nezuko! Head-butting isn't a violation of the Corps rules, right?" Tanjiro continued on his facade.

"Shut up! Settle down now!" The female Kakushi tried silencing the wild redhead. Meanwhile, Muichiro grabs a pebble.

"LET GO OF ME!" Tanjiro squirmed as they both locked his arms.

"CUT IT OUT!"

Muichiro flings three pebbles towards Tanjiro's face thrice, making him interrupt his struggles and toppled forward.

"You're not allowed to interrupt the Master." Muichiro said while playing with a small pebble.

"It's about time you rest up, Tanjiro." BoBoiBoy said sarcastically.

"We beg your pardon!"

"We beg your pardon, Master!"

"Master Tokito!"

"We beg your pardon!"

"We assure you that this boy will be severely reprimanded, so—"

"So please! Please!"

Were the Kakushis' apologies.

'Muichiro! What a fine boy! So cool!' Mitsuri had hearts floating around her head as she stared at Muichiro.

"Just get out of our sight."

"Yes, sir!"

And with that, they dragged the boys away from the meeting.

"Tanjiro, BoBoiBoy..."

They turned back their heads.

"Give Miss Tamayo my regards."

They widen their eyes as he knew Tamayo as well. The Kakushis ran to bring them to Shinobu's household where they will be treated accordingly.

"Hold on a second! I just heard him mention Miss Tamayo's name!" Tanjiro said while being carried on the male Kakushi's back.

"We all heard him, Tanjiro!" BoBoiBoy responds while running beside the female Kakushi. "To think he actually knows Lady Tamayo means..."

Whilst running, the female Kakushi gave Tanjiro a one-two on his face to show her frustration.

"Don't you say another word! We got yelled at because of you!"

"I thought I'd pee my pants!" The male Kakushi exclaims.

She looked over to BoBoiBoy. "Good thing you weren't like this kid! Otherwise, I'd also beaten you up as well!"

He gulps. "Well, I know my limits when it comes to attack the ones who hurt my loved ones!"

She then pinches Tanjiro's cheeks wider. "You don't know how terrifying the Hashiras are!"

"Try to read the room! Read it!"

"I'll never forgive you as long as I live!"

"I'll never forgive you!"

"Apologize!"

"Apologize! Apologize!"

"I... I'm sorry." Tanjiro said tiredly.


They had arrived at the place Shinobu has been meaning to take them after the trial. The entirety of her home is surrounded with a wide fence that circles around the mansion. A Japanese styled architecture, most suitable to those living here with average lives. Not to mention a whole load of greenery around to aesthetically please the soar eyes.

"Hello! Is anyone home?" The female Kakushi called out for anyone.

"Hello! Is anyone home? Hello..." She panted after they ran a good distance away from the Master's mansion to here.

"Jeez, no one's coming to the door." The male Kakushi complained.

"Let's go check out the yard." She suggested.

They walk around to find an entrance inside the mansion after knowing the front is deserted.

"Hey, walk on your own." The male Kakushi said to Tanjiro.

"I'm sorry. It's just that my whole body is aching like crazy." Tanjiro said while wincing in slight pain.

"What about you?" The female Kakushi asked to the other boy. "Are you still fine after all that running?"

BoBoiBoy shrugged. "It could've been worse. My body feels like it's going to shut down at any moment and I want to sleep."

He yawned before asking the Kakushis their names. "By the way, I never got your names. I'm BoBoiBoy. And the boy that guy's carrying is Tanjiro Kamado."

"I'm Akira." She introduced herself. "It's a pleasure to meet your acquaintance."

"The name's Goto." He said in a plain tone. "And thanks for asking who we are. Most Demon Slayers never even bothered to greet us nor ask our names. We just do our jobs to service our Masters."

BoBoiBoy nodded. "Wow. You guys must have had it rough to be carrying out so many tasks."

Akira waved him. "We are fine on our own. We Kakushi are capable of managing our lifestyle to a level of normal. It's because Oyakata-sama wants everyone to be treated fairly so here we are."

"Oh, I see. That's great to hear actually." BoBoiBoy grinned. "It's nice to know that happens to everyone."

"I'm starting to like you kid." She smiled underneath her mask. "Maybe you aren't so dim-witted as Kamado right there."

"I heard that." Tanjiro mumbled.

"Oh, Tanjiro is just tired and got a lot of things in his mind. Please don't berate him any longer." BoBoiBoy tried to dismiss it.

Their walk went a bit long to get to the other yard since they just conversed with the other boy. BoBoiBoy takes a good look at his surroundings. Shrubs, bushes, plants of any varieties, and other houses as well. It's quite a good place to live here.

"I knew that the headquarters were huge, but this mansion's something else, huh?" Tanjiro said and takes in the whole scene.

As they got closer, butterflies almost swarmed the four. They dispersed immediately once they were in direct contact with each of them.

"Butterflies..." BoBoiBoy held out his hand and one butterfly landed on his hand. "Wasn't this place called the Butterfly Mansion?"

They made it to the yard where Akira mentioned to go to. It was the same as any other yards. Too open and provided much room for training purposes.

"Hey, there's someone." Goto said. "Someone's here."

"That would be, um..."

BoBoiBoy stared at the person he's looking at and was surprised to see it was the same girl again that he encountered in Final Selection and at Mt. Natagumo.

"Oh, right! The Tsuguko... Her name is..."

"Tsuguko?" The boys said.

"It's Master Kanao Tsuyuri." Goto said. Kanao is seen with butterflies around her while she held out her finger with one butterfly sitting on top.

"It's the girl from Final Selection." Tanjiro muttered.

"Hey, somebody's forgotten how they got stomped on by Master Kanao last night." Goto reminded him of last night's events.

"By the way, what does a Tsuguko mean?" BoBoiBoy asked since it's his first time hearing it.

"A Tsuguko is a swordsman trained by a Hashira. Only the ones with mind-blowing skills and talent get chosen. She's a girl, but she's awesome!"

"A Tsuguko, huh..." BoBoiBoy mused. However, there's one thought that he didn't quite get yet.

'Hold on, wasn't there another Demon Slayer by her side? I didn't get a closer look since they surprised attack me and got knocked out. But that sound... The sound they made... It's strangely familiar to what it was back home!'

Before he can continue with his line of thoughts, Akira marched forward and bowed in front of Kanao.

"Please forgive us, Master Tsuyuri. We were ordered to come here by Master Kocho." She ended her bow and straighten herself up.

"Permission to enter the mansion?"

Kanao didn't answer as she only continued to smile at Akira.

"Uh, do you mind?" Akira blinked twice.

Kanao still gave her the same treatment.

"Weird. Why isn't she answering her?" BoBoiBoy whispered to Goto. Who in turn, shrugged.

"You don't mind, do you?" Akira wanted to get an answer out from Kanao as politely as possible.

BoBoiBoy's ears perked up when he heard footsteps from behind.

'Who is—'

"AND WHO ARE YOU?!" A familiar girl appeared behind them and shouted, giving them startled expressions.

"Uh..." Goto tried to answer.

"We were ordered by Master Kocho!" Akira quickly answered.

"Are you a Kakushi?" She asked before looking at the injured people. "You've brought an injured per—"

When her eyes landed on BoBoiBoy, she gasped at his presence. It took only a minute for BoBoiBoy to process who she is and where he had met her. Until it finally clicked in his head, he cheerfully yelled.

"Aoi!" BoBoiBoy smiled. "So you are safe! I'm glad!"

Aoi's eyes shook. She is standing in front of the person who had once saved her life back in Final Selection.

"B-BoBoiBoy?" She can hardly believe she can see him again. "Is that you?"

"Yeah." He placed his hands on his hips. "I'm really glad you're here! Makes me feel happy knowing you passed Final Selection like me!"

Aoi lightly blushed. "Y-Yeah. You too."

The Kakushis and Tanjiro were silently observing the pair and wondered what had happened at Final Selection. Even Kanao is interested to what they were talking about.

"A-Anyways, please come this way." Her hard exterior came back, but it only came out forcefully as she was surprised to see her saviour to be here again.

"All right! Let's go!" BoBoiBoy followed Aoi to wherever she'll lead them. The Kakushis followed after her, leaving Kanao by herself with the butterflies.

Tanjiro casted one last look at Kanao from behind. Something about her had intrigued Tanjiro and wanted to know more about her.


"FIVE TIMES?! I GOTTA TAKE THIS FIVE TIMES?! A DAY?! AND I HAVE TO KEEP TAKING THIS MEDICINE FOR THREE MONTHS?! IF I TAKE THIS, I CAN'T EAT ANYTHING, YOU KNOW! I MEAN IT'S REALLY BITTER! IT'S SUCH AN ORDEAL!

"SO, YOU MEAN MY ARMS AND LEGS WILL HEAL JUST BY TAKING MEDICINE?! FOR REAL?! LISTEN, ARE THEY REALLY GONNA HEAL?! TELL ME HOW THEY'RE GONNA GET HEALED!"

"Please stop shouting, will you?" A young nurse, Kiyo Terauchi, politely beckons for him to call down.

"SOMEBODY EXPLAIN THIS TO ME BETTER! WHAT'S GONNA HAPPEN IF I FORGOT TO TAKE IT EVEN ONCE?! HEY!"

"So, that guy is still making a commotion." Aoi said with her usual face.

"I never thought I'd say this but, I think I missed his screaming." BoBoiBoy joked.

"You know this guy?" Aoi asked.

"Yeah, he's my friend."

"LISTEN! MY ARMS AND LEGS! WHAT'S GONNA HAPPEN TO MY ARMS AND LEGS?! HEY! WHAT'S GONNA HAPPEN IF I FORGOT TO TAKE IT?! HEY! HEY! HEY!"

"Zenitsu!" Tanjiro almost cried upon seeing him.

"Please try to be quiet!" Aoi yelled.

Zenitsu continued screaming until he gargles like a platypus.

"Didn't we already explain it to you numerous times?! If you don't stop this nonsense now, we'll tie you up!" Aoi warned. Unfortunately, it was drowned out with him making noises like a platypus, literally.

"Really now!" Aoi is really done with him then she walked away.

"Zenitsu!" Tanjiro called out to him, earning him another scream.

"Are you okay? Did you hurt yourself?" Tanjiro concerning-ly asked.

"Don't worry. I was there with Zenitsu so he is perfectly fine. Good thing he wasn't encased in ice or something." BoBoiBoy laughed it off awkwardly while scratching the back of his head.

"Hold up, it was YOU that made the ice?!" Goto almost did a spit-take and almost blew a fuse at BoBoiBoy. He had put two-and-two together and realized who had made it possible in the first place.

"Uhh... yeah. About that... I made that ice last night."

"I ALMOST DIED FROM HYPOTHERMIA BECAUSE OF YOU!" He poked BoBoiBoy's cheek rapidly.

"I'm sorry!" BoBoiBoy comically yelled out and apologized.

"Huh...? T-Tanjiro... B-BoBoiBoy..." Zenitsu removed his head from his pillow and leapt on to Tanjiro but only leapt onto Goto instead.

"AAAAAAHHHH! TANJIROOOOOOO! LISTEN TO ME, WILL YOU?! I GOT STUNG BY THIS STINKY SPIDER, AND THE POISON HURT LIKE CRAZY, OKAY?! AND THAT GIRL'S BEEN YELLING AT ME ALL THIS TIME! I HATE MY LIFE!" Zenitsu sobbed onto Goto.

"Hey, get away from me. I've got nothing to do with this." He felt disgusted as his uniform is getting slightly damp from Zenitsu's tears.

"Zenitsu, did you get smaller or something?" Tanjiro noticed his body shape to be unusual and asked.

"I almost got turned into a spider." When he lets his head go from Goto, his snot traveled all its way to his uniform from his nose.

"G-Gross..." BoBoiBoy had goosebumps and backed off slowly.

"My arms and legs are really short right now." Zenitsu explained.

"Is that right?" He calmed down.

"So Zenitsu, how are you holding up? Everything okay?" BoBoiBoy asks as usual for his friend.

"I'm okay. My limbs are short but more than happy to be alive." Zenitsu said.

"Well, you did a great job, Zenitsu! We're all alive and that's what matters most!" He said cheerfully.

BoBoiBoy then lets them have their talk and looked around the room. It's a little infirmary for patients with lots of beds for them to rest. When he looked to his right, he is astounded to see Inosuke laying down on his bed.

"Inosuke..." BoBoiBoy then remembered what happened to him when he was in their fight against the Father Spider Demon. How the monster almost scrunched his head made him angry. He didn't notice that his hands balled into fists.

'At least now you can take many breaks from now on, Inosuke. You don't have to worry about that demon anymore because I took care of it for us.'

The sound of Tanjiro falling off from Goto's back snapped him out of his thoughts.

"Inosuke, I'm so glad you're all right!" Tanjiro begins to tear up. "I'm so glad you're all right! I'm so sorry! I couldn't rescue you!"

"Tanjiro, you know I was also there with Inosuke as well." BoBoiBoy said sadly.

When Inosuke talked, they didn't expect him to not shout or anything.

"It's okay... Don't worry about it..." Inosuke answered in a raspy voice.

"Your voice... Is that you, Inosuke?" Tanjiro asked after he hears Inosuke not constantly shouting all the time.

"I heard he lost his voice or something." Zenitsu said. "I don't have all the details, but I heard he, like, got hit in the neck, and when he yelled at the top of his lungs at the end, that finished it off. And it did a number on his throat."

"..." BoBoiBoy stared at the broken boar.

"He's depressed now, so it's made him gentle, and it really cracks me up!" Zenitsu then cackles while having snot still connected to Goto.

"Why are you cackling in that creepy way all of a sudden?" Tanjiro asked innocently. "What's going on?"

Zenitsu stopped and gave Tanjiro a creeped out stare.

"I'm sorry for being so weak..." Inosuke said.

That made them all feel empathy for Inosuke. They never hear him so depressed before, even pushing aside his pride to say that he is weak.

"Guys... Inosuke almost died." BoBoiBoy finally told them. They gasped at what he just said.

"H-How did that happen to Inosuke?" Tanjiro wanted to know the details."

"We got in a really tough spot but I was able to save him and killed the demon before Mr. Tomioka showed up." He said. He didn't want to elaborate it any further, much less it wants to bring up the horrible images of Inosuke almost having his head crushed and blood seeped out from his mask.

"How'd you kill the demon? Last time we fought it, we couldn't lay a dent on him!"

BoBoiBoy sighed. "I'll tell you later, Tanjiro. But for now, I just wanna lay down and get comfy as soon as possible. I'm beat."

He chose a bed that is on the opposite end of them and chose the middle one. "Also, guys, cut him some slack okay? He had gone through a lot last night so it's best to keep it down."

The boys nodded, knowing what he was saying. To be fair, he was there when it happened so they understood what goes on inside Inosuke's head right now.

"AAHH! DID I TAKE MY MORNING MEDS?! DO YOU SEE ME TAKE THEM?! SOMEBODY?! DID YOU SEE?! SOMEBODY?! DID YOU SEEEEE?!"


The young Demon Slayers have now fully deserved their long awaited break inside the infirmary. BoBoiBoy and Zenitsu slept soundly despite it still morning. Inosuke still laid there, presumably to be sleeping. Tanjiro stretched his arms behind his head as he looked at his two companions and his brother figure across him.

"Zenitsu... Inosuke... Thank goodness. You're alive." Tanjiro, now formerly dressed in his patient clothing like Zenitsu and Inosuke, relaxed and smile at his friends' fortunate survival on the nightmarish mountain that once housed the spider demons.

"BoBoiBoy..." But the most gratitude he can ever give to, is of course, the one who stood alongside him the most. "You get lots of rest. You deserve it."

BoBoiBoy mumbled something in his sleep, most likely dreaming at this point.

BoBoiBoy was training in a planet that had strange weather occurrings, the landmarks that he memorized to be where he practiced his horse stance, the training where he can snipe the apple from a moving tree, training to outrun Kang Kongs and King Kang Kong in the dark.

This is Hang Kasa's home planet.

"BoBoiBoy!"

He stopped what he's practicing on and ran to Hang Kasa's hut for a break.

"You called, Tok Kasa?" He said while wiping away some of his sweat.

"You've been training for hours, BoBoiBoy. Give your body a moment to rest." He offered him tea.

"Thanks, Tok." BoBoiBoy smiled and drank some of it. It vaguely tasted like Tok Aba's cocoa.

"Huh?"

He then found himself in his grandfather's cocoa shop. He no longer wears his TAPOPS Uniform as he is wearing his old outfit when he was 11-years-old.

"BoBoiBoy?" Ochobot shook him gently. "You spaced out for a minute. Are you okay?"

"Yeah." Tok Aba appeared behind BoBoiBoy. "Ever since I made you the cocoa, you've been acting weird lately."

He can't find his voice to talk. The transition from Hang Kasa's planet to his home Earth gave him a slight headache.

"I'm sorry... I... I need to..."

BoBoiBoy dropped his mug and ran away from the shop. Tok Aba and Ochobot both yelled after him but he didn't bother to look back. In amidst of his running, he found himself no longer in a park.

"Where am I now?" He looked at a place that reminded him of where he had his final fight against Retak'ka.

He looked at himself and was surprised to see Thunderstorm and Solar's fusion form: Supra. The thought confused him as to why he was in this form.

When he tried to move, he wouldn't budge.

'I can't...! I can't control my body!'

His mind was still in control but only his body is. He charged up his strongest attack. The same attack he used against Retak'ka. He didn't aim for the sky. He aimed at below.

Below is where the dam is.

He is standing on top of the dam.

He aimed towards the end of it.

He recognized that location.

That's where his friends were at.

They all looked at him with terrified expressions.

"No... Please! Don't make me do this!"

He tried everything to get his body under control.

But he couldn't.

He cried.

He yelled for his friends.

Then he fired his attack beam.

An explosion.

Everything went dark.


BoBoiBoy woke up. Sweat filled his face accompanied with a look of dread.

"A bad dream..." He wiped the sweat off of his forehead. He looked at the window and see that it is already mid-day. There's no clock here but he can guess it must be around 4 o'clock in the afternoon.

The door to the infirmary opened, revealing to be Aoi behind it.

"Good afternoon, BoBoiBoy." She flashed him a smile, completely reversing her face whenever she's with other patients.

"Hello Aoi." He returned the same gesture.

"Did you take your medicine already?" Aoi asked.

Since he was sleeping, he didn't want to forget his schedule of taking his meds. He took one immediately while doing his best not to make a disgusted face.

"The taste is awful but it does get the job done. But I guess this is what medicine does to your taste buds."

Aoi frowned. "That's the problem with that guy. He always complains with the medicine's taste and always comes crawling to me. He should at least be lucky that the medicine is going to be resetting his body back to normal."

"He just needs to get used to taste, is what I'll say." BoBoiBoy looked over to Inosuke. "What about Inosuke? Any kind of violent reactions from him?"

Aoi shook her head. "So far, none. He's been like this ever since we put him in bed the first time. You don't think this has anything to do with the events last night?"

BoBoiBoy flinched but kept his composure. "Yes it does. But I don't wanna talk about."

It intrigued her but respected his choice of not telling about it. They've been through hell together so it must be pretty traumatic to say the least.

"Where's Tanjiro?" BoBoiBoy asked once more.

"Oh, that boy? Well, he's going to put that demon inside the box into another room." Aoi told him. "If it's not much to ask, why are you accompanying him with a demon in tow? I heard about it from the Kakushis."

BoBoiBoy breathed in and out. "It's a long story."

"You can make it shorter if you want to." Aoi said.

"I'm sure I can trust you enough, right?"

She smiled. "You saved my life before. So it's all the more reason for me to trust you, BoBoiBoy."

BoBoiBoy took in a breath and racked up in his mind for a summarized story of what's been happening to Tanjiro, Nezuko, and himself. After a few hours of talking and telling her the story of why he's accompanying with them, BoBoiBoy sunk back in his bed.

It turned out that he basically told her everything he knew thus far.

"I see..." Aoi processed all it in slowly. "I'm really sorry to hear that, BoBoiBoy. I couldn't imagine a life to live in a world you don't belong in."

He sighed. "It's not like I have much of a choice. What I want to know are answers as to how I got here. But so far, I have nothing."

She pats his hand. "I'm sure you'll figure it out eventually. I'm sorry that I can't be much help for you but all I can say is that... Good luck."

To express how happy he is, he gave her one of his sincerest smiles. That alone made Aoi blushed a light pink and turns her head away.

"Thank you, Aoi."

Too flustered and blushing like a little cherry, she excused herself out of the room saying that she'll have more patients to tend to. She then reminded him to take his medicine once in a while after every meal.

"Now that she's gone, I guess I'll stroll around the mansion before finding Tanjiro." BoBoiBoy sat up and gave some good stretches. He hit some very sore spots and that made him winced a bit.

He puts on his slippers and leaves the still-sleeping duo in their little world of dreams or nightmares. He takes a moment to stretch his legs first before taking another step forward.

He strolls for a bit while looking at some paintings and the indoor plants along the way.

"Nice place they have here. Makes it feel like home than a mansion itself."

He reached through a porch that leads to a yard outside. It was quite atmospheric.

'It's quite nice over here. Maybe I'll just stay here for a bit.' He thought and takes a sit on the porch and let himself get immersed in the nature outside. He had forgotten about the horrors of Mt. Natagumo and let peace and tranquility enter his mind.

'Now that that's over, I'm beginning to wonder if this was all meant to be.' BoBoiBoy then drowns himself in his thoughts.

'Let's start from the beginning. First, I was lying in a pile of snow. I met Tanjiro who saved me from that said snow. We saw his family, murdered by Muzan Kibutsuji, who is the very first human to have ever become a demon. We met Giyu Tomioka, the very first Demon Slayer we see. We were trained by Sakonji Urokodaki, a former Hashira. We slayed many demons until we get to this point of finding Nezuko a cure to reverse her condition.'

He sighed.

'Y'know, I'm starting miss what a normal life feels like. Nowadays, it's just me and my friends trying to rescue a bunch of Power Spheras from every nook and cranny. But given to my situation, I'm now rescuing and saving people from man-eaters who called themselves demons. I'm starting to think that Fate is messing with me.'

He glanced at the sky.

'For what it's worth, maybe in exchange for saving the whole galaxy from being conquered by Retak'ka, I'd be sent to another world to try and save it as well?'

He crossed his arms while looking at the sky. He leaned onto a wooden support beam. He then uncrossed his arms and looked at his right wrist. His power watch attached to it.

'I don't know. It couldn't be it right? If it's not that, then what was it? How was I transferred from one world to another? Unless... it had something to do with Ochobot? But that doesn't sound right. He only has power to teleport to certain distances. It's impossible that he transports me to another planet...'

'Or maybe... It's time traveling... or dimension traveling... Or neither?'

BoBoiBoy blinked. He stayed in his spot for more than 5 minutes until he decided to stand up and begins his search of finding Tanjiro. But before he can turn to a corner, his ears caught footsteps.

"Aoi? Is that you?"

BoBoiBoy's heart skipped. His eyes widen like plates.

'That voice...!'

"Aoi? Or is that you, Kanao?"

It's a voice BoBoiBoy knew by heart. He stood frozen solid at his spot.

"Is everything all ri—"

Now when they finally showed themself, tears automatically fell on BoBoiBoy's eyes.

There's no denying about it.

They gasp.

"B-B-BoBoiBoy...?"

"Y-Yaya...?"


Nighttime had surfaced. Inside of the Demon Slayer Corps Headquarters, the Master and every Hashira are all having their annual Hashira Meeting in regards to pinpointing Muzan Kibutsuji's location.

"Just as you've all reported, the demons' carnage has increased more than ever. Meaning that the threat to human life is greater than it's ever been. We'll have to bolster the ranks of the Demon Slayers. What do you all think?" Oyakata said.

"The incident on Mt. Natagumo made it crystal clear." Sanemi spoke. "The caliber of Demon Slayers has nose-dived to unbelievable levels. Most of them are useless. The trainers must be blind. You'd think they could at least tell if someone's competent or not."

Tengen brought his finger to his chin. "Well, those kids today sure seemed competent. They did land those flamboyant blows on you, Shinazugawa. They got potential."

Sanemi clicked his tongue.

"The more the human population increases, the harder it becomes to control and unify them." Shinobu states "Not to mention that the times have changed considerably in this era."

"Other than those who've had their loved ones brutally massacred, and joined the Corps, or those of distinguished pedigree who have hunted demons for generations, to ask anyone to harness as much, or even greater resolve and drive to produce results would be cruel." Gyomei said.

"Still, considering those boys ran into a Twelve Kizuki so soon after joining the Corps... They may have the power to draw them!" Kyojuro exclaimed as-a-matter-of-factly. "Even we rarely get the chance to confront one! It makes me envious!"

"Agreed." Oyakata said. "But the fact that Lower Five made such a drastic move probably means that Muzan is nowhere near Mt. Natagumo. After all, as in the case of Asukasa, whenever Muzan wishes to hide something, he creates a clear diversion to throw us off."

"It's really quite frustrating. But those demons are still freely devouring humans, gaining strength and surviving. For the sake of those who have died, there is only one thing for us to do."

"I believe that among you Hashiras who are present today, I've assembled the finest unit since the First Breathing swordsmen of the feudal era."

"Tengen Uzui."

"Kyojuro Rengoku."

"Shinobu Kocho."

"Mitsuri Kanroji."

"Muichiro Tokito."

"Gyomei Himejima."

"Sanemi Shinazugawa."

"Obanai Iguro."

"Giyu Tomioka."

"My children, I look forward to your success."

And that concludes the Hashira Meeting. Everyone said their farewells and called it for the night as they went on home. Oyakata's twin daughters are walking back to their rooms as Oyakata still sat in his place where the meeting had ended.

"Muzan Kibutsuji, I swear I'll defeat you if it's the last thing that I do. We will bring you down without fail."


Finished it as quickly as possible. And here we have the secret character revealed in the spotlight.

That's right!

It's our lovable hijab girl!

Next chapter will be their official encounter.

I know the reveal is a bit underwhelming. The build-up could've been better as well as the timing.

But, it's better to have it like that, right?

Thanks for reading and I'll see you all in the next one.
