This is my second ever fanfic, so be nice XD
R&R, please! Motivation is hard to come by these days and seeing your thoughts really helps
Both the demon and Zenitsu were equally stunned. The demon quickly pulled back, taking the spear with it and disappeared.
As the spear ripped out from Zenitsu, he fell to his knees, blood spraying everywhere. Tanjiro turned around right as Zenitsu let out a pained grunt.
"ZENITSU!" He yelled, holding his friend up by his shoulders. Inosuke, enraged, finally managed to take down the demon that had lowered its guard, but that hardly mattered to Tanjiro. His best friend had gotten hurt to protect Nezuko. That wasn't supposed to happen.
Blood covered Zenitsu's torso and slid down his chin. Thankfully, the spear hadn't pierced his back as well, but it still went in deep. Too deep.
"Zenitsu, stay with me!" Tanjro cried, holding a limp Zenitsu in his arms. He used his coat to cover the wound and pushed down in an attempt to stop the bleeding. So much blood…
Zenitsu felt like he was on fire. He hurt all over, more then he'd ever hurt before, and darkness lingered in his peripheral vision. He heard Tanjiro and Inosuke calling him, but he couldn't tell what they were saying. Their voices distorted as if he was underwater. He heard them saying something about keeping his eyes open, but that was becoming increasingly difficult. The darkness threatened to completely cover his sight.
"Zenitsu, please, stay awake!" Tanjiro was in tears. His coat was soaked by now, and Zenitsu was no longer reacting to the pressure on the wound. That couldn't be a good sign.
Inosuke stood to the side, having no idea what to do. He'd seen demons kill before, but never his friends. He almost didn't hear his name being called.
"...suke! INOSUKE!" Tanjiro yelled through his sobs. Insouke fell to his knees beside his felled friend, unable to tear his gaze away from the blood. "Inosuke, we need to keep pressure on the wound so we can get him to the butterfly mansion!" Tanjiro said, hoping to tear Inosuke's vision away from Zenitsu. Inosuke nodded mutely, and quickly set about unwrapping the cloth around his swords.
Throughout the whole process, Zenitsu didn't react. His eyes stayed eerily half-open, mouth slightly agape with a small trail of blood escaping out the side. But his heart was still beating, which kept Tanjiro and Inosuke working with lightning speed.
Finally, Zenistu's torso was wrapped as tightly as possible. Inosuke carefully picked him up bride style, while Tanjiro quickly donned Nezuko's box. Then, they set off for the mansion.
"Hold on Zen. We're gonna get you help."
Next chapters will be longer (hopefully) XD
Hope y'all are still enjoying!
