!PLEASE READ AND REVIEW!

It's time again to answer your comments!

Guest: Nice to see Tanjiro and Nezuko feel like part of the Mochizuki family. Hahaha! Take that, Grandpa Grump! The story of how Meiyo Mochizuki met the Kamados was good; no wonder Tanjiro's such a nice guy, it's genetic! Seriously, if kindness was hereditary, Sumiyoshi certainly passed it down! Zenitsu's reaction to learning Tanjiro and Yua are a couple was hilarious! Keep up the good work and stay safe from the coronavirus!

-The Mochizuki's: We only had Tanjiro and Nezuko for a day but if anything happens to them we will kill anybody and then us! Glad you liked the little flashback with Meiyo and Sumiyoshi. I think this too, that Sumiyoshi passed his kindness (and his looks) down till Tanjiro. :D Zenitsu is forever alone XD

Thank you and you stay safe too and anybody else!

Also, I want to make clear, that we may be talking about sex, but I will never write smut for Tanjiro and Yua.

Both are minors.

Just no.

But we also know how horny and hormonal teenagers are and that most people, not all of course, have their first time as teenagers.

So if both one day will do the deed, I will only hit on it.

No smut.

Hope everybody is comfortable with this ^^

Now on with the story.

Season 1 ends and in the next we are in season 2!

Yuhu!

Chapter 13: The first steps in a new journey

There was tension in the air.

Yua felt how sweat dripped down her temple.

The honourable Hashira, Shinobu, just stood before her with a calm smile.

On the side were Aoi and Kanao, the four little girls, her boyfriend (still amazed her that Tanjiro felt for her so much) Inosuke and Zenitsu.

All were looking at the showdown and what was about to happen.

The day had started like normal, with rehabilitation training against Kanao.

Tanjiro had made incredible progress and out of 20 times, he could win 10 against Kanao. After he wanted to go on a run, trying to motivate Zenitsu and Inosuke to come with them (Yua didn't need an invitation, she was always ready), Shinobu came into the training room.

At first, all thought she just wanted to check on the four Demon Slayers and their progress, but playful she had turned to Yua saying: "I heard from Aoi-Chan and Kanao-Chen how fast and strong you got, Yua-Chan. I would like to see for myself."

So here she was about to be playing Tag with a Hashira. Yua had a feeling this was a test.

Maybe...maybe they were scouting her out to see if she was ready to be a Hashira?

The midnight blue-haired girl had worked all her life for this goal. How much sweat, tears and blood did she shed? It seemed nearly unbelievable that this could happen. She wouldn't lie, after what had happened at home with her grandfather, a part of her wanted to pull a Noritaka and just leave the corps, another part wanted to show the old bastard who called himself her Grandfather she could become a Hashira.

Also, she didn't want to leave, Tanjiro, Nezuko, Inosuke and also Zenitsu hanging. They were a team now. She would feel like a traitor if she left the Corps.

If this was a test to see if she was ready to be a Hashira, she would give her all against Shinobu.

Yua took a deep breath and focused on the task at hand. She couldn't let her thoughts wander, not when she was about to play Tag with a Hashira. Shinobu's calm smile didn't reassure her, it only made her more nervous.

As they started running, Yua felt the tension in the air increase. She had to catch Shinobu as fast as she could. The boys and the four little girls were cheering her on from the side, while Aoi and Kanao were watching intently.

The Kinoto couldn't help but feel grateful for their support. They were more than just teammates, they were family now. And she couldn't let them down.

Shinobu was fast, but Yua was determined. She ran left and right, trying to anticipate Shinobu's next move. The sweat dripped down Yua's temple again, but she ignored it. This was her chance to prove herself.

Finally, after what seemed like an eternity of running and dodging, Yua managed to tag Shinobu.

The Hashira smiled even wider and patted Yua on the back.

"Well done," she said. "You have great potential."

The 17-year-old felt relief wash over her as Shinobu walked away with Aoi and Kanao following behind her. She looked at Tanjiro, Inosuke, and Zenitsu before she was suddenly stormed by Ema and her friends. The little girls all hugging her.

"That was amazing Yua-Nee!", shouted Ema.

She laughed and hugged each girl. Then she felt how someone picked her up and twirled her around.

It was Tanjiro.

"You were incredible!", told her boyfriend. This made her laugh even more, hugging his neck tight, leaving kisses on his head.

The girls cooed, while Zenitsu mumbled to Inosuke: "Lucky Bastard. He has her amazing breasts in his face."

"What's so special about this?"

Zenitsu made a facepalm.

"I'm surrendered by stupid virgins."

For that Inosuke hit him over the head.

"I have no idea what ya talking about Monjirou, but I have a feeling I must hit you!"

The blond faceplanted on the ground and only pathetic sounds came out of him.

Since they weren't any more patients of the Butterfly Mansion, but guest the four Demon Slayers were moved into one of the guest rooms.

Tanjiro and Yua liked to share their futons, the girl often spooning her younger lover. For both, it was the best sleep they had in ages in each other arms.

Still...Yua was 17 years old and she had...erm...some urges..hust.

So it was a blessing and a curse that they shared the room with Zenitsu and Inosuke. You couldn't do more...mature things couples do with an audition. Yua bet Zenitsu, the pervert, would enjoy watching them. Only kissing and cuddly and okay she may have given Tanjiro one or two hickeys, however, they didn't do more.

In her head, Yua cursed Sayako out. Her cousin was right...she already wanted to go the next big step with Tanjiro...why was she such a horny individual?

Love did weird things to you, she decided. Also, she remembered that her parents were affectionate to each other, maybe she got it there?

Just...it was hard in words to express what she felt for Tanjiro...she was better with physical affection.

Maybe that's why she wanted to do it.

However this was all just thinking, they were a fresh couple, and they had still months before this subject should come up.

So sleeping was just sleeping.

But today their peaceful sleep was interrupted by Kaguya, Yua crow.

"Morning children, morning Yua-Chan.", cawed Kaguya.

Sleepy Yua raised her head from where it was buried in Tanjiro's hair, as her boyfriend sat up.

"What the heck?", shouted Inosuke pissed.

"Huh? What's going on?", wonders Zenitsu also sitting up.

Yua turned on her stomach and held out a hand for Kaguya to sit on.

"Morning my princess.", she kissed her crow on the head, which made the bird caw happy. "I assume you have a mission for us?"

"That's right. The casualties of the Infinite Train are increasing. More than 40 are now missing. You are to join Rengoku Kyoujurou on-site. Head west at once!"

Yua looked at her boys and smirked.

"Looks like we are back in the game boys!"

Meanwhile, one Kocho Shinobu talked with Oyakata-Sama about how she had recommended Tanjiro for this mission and then about the Fire/Sun Breathing they had talked about and how maybe Rengoku Kyoujurou could help him.

"Now my child about the the favour I asked you about.", said Oyakata-Sama in his calm voice. "What do you think about Mochizuki Yua."

"Her strength and abilities are on Hashira Level no question.", answers Shinobu. "Like you asked me Oyakata-Sama I tested her and she could bet me. I also sensed a change in her behaviour thanks to entering a relationship with Kamado Tanjiro. Both complement each other nicely, caring for each other but never forgetting their other important people."

"This sounds all very good. She may be ready."

"You mean master?"

The man nodded.

"I will wait how Kyoujurou is going to evaluate young Yua in this mission, but we may have finally found a new Hashira and the first of the moon."

In the Butterfly Mansion of course no one knew what was going on in the Masters Mansion. The four Demon Slayers were more occupied to prepare for their mission.

Yua had already said her goodbyes, so she had taken Nezuko with her. They took a bath and then in Nezuko's room they got ready.

It felt good wearing again her Demon Slayer Uniform. It was such a part of her...maybe she was forced into this life, but...leaving it?

Maybe when Tanjiro and her would start one day a family...long in the future, hopeful there weren't any more demons.

Under no conditions wanted Yua to birth a child into a world full of demons. Her and Tanjiro's children should grow up in a world without fear of them. Also, she was too young to be the mom of someone.

A big blush formed on her cheeks, which made Nezuko poke them in curiosity.

Did...did she really think she wanted to start a family with Tanjiro one day? Was she already that gone for him?

Again, love was so weird.

But beautiful.

To distract herself she braided two thin braids on each side of Nezuko's head and then together fixed them with a cherry blossom hair clip.

The demon girl cooed and touched her new hairstyle in wonder.

She was so cute, that Yua couldn't help it and kissed Nezuko on the head. Nezuko started to purr and Yua now needed to cuddle her.

That's how Tanjiro found them.

The two most important girls in his life are on Nezuko's bed cuddling each other.

"Hello love.", greeted Yua with his pet name. She only used it when they were alone or with Nezuko. "Said goodbye to the others?"

"I did, dearest.", he answered with his pet name for her. "Did you know that Kanao needed a coin to decide what to do? I hope I could help her make now-alone decisions."

This made Yua sit up, while Nezuko still embraced her. She stroked the younger girl's hair.

"Yeah, I know it. We all just rolled with it. From what Aoi-San told me Kanao-San did not have the best childhood. You are amazing you know that. Always so helpful, I'm a disaster at these things."

"Don't say this.", tutted Tanjiro, stepping towards them.

He petted his sister's hair, while he kissed his girlfriend on the forehead.

"You have your way of helping, you are kind and gentle and don't try to deny it, I can smell it."

Huffing Yua patted his cheek.

"Won't say a thing. Now get dressed. We need to go."

Tanjiro nodded and gave each of them a kiss on the cheek.

"Dearest, I like this new hairstyle, didn't know your hair was so long."

Grinning with a blush Yua stroked her hair. She had decided to keep the buns but left most of her hair free. Now one could see that it passed her curvy hips.

Soon the four Demon Slayer and one Demon in a Box were outside the Butterfly Mansion with Ema and her three friends.

Yua stood beside the little girls and watched how Tanjiro, Zenitsu and Inosuke blew into the big guards.

They all cheered them on, till the boys managed to make them explode!

This made the girls cheer louder.

"Amazing boys, you did it, I'm proud of you!", congratulated them on their Senpai with a lovely smile.

The boys blushed under her praise. Some more than others.

It's then Kiyo holds out a basket of rice balls to the four.

"Here you go."

Tanjiro thanks her and Inosuke reaches for a rice ball, but Zenitsu stops him.

"Don't eat it now!"

The four little girls chorus: "Please go out and defeat tons of demons."

"We'll do our best.", promises Tanjiro, then he sees the Water Pillar Tomioka Giyuu and runs up to him, while Zenitsu and Yua try to stop Inosuke from eating the Rice Balls.

"Boarhead, stop it!", shouts Yua.

"I told you not to eat it now!", reminds him Zenitsu.

Inosuke only tells them to shut up.

An angry mark forms on Yua's head and faster than lighting she hits Inosuke on the head and catches in the some moment the basket with the rice balls. Inosuke is just a whimpering flat form on the ground. A little crater formed around him.

Zenitsu's mouth meets the floor and the little girls are in aww.

"Yua-Nee/Lady Yua is amazing!"

What strength!, thinks Zenitsu scarred to the bones. Yua-Senpai was strong when we met, but now she is a force of nature! I hope you never forget any anniversary Tanjiro or she will kill you!

Soon Tanjiro joins them, wondering where Inosuke got a new bump from, Yua innocent standing there with the basket and Zenitsu is terrified.

The red-haired boy can just smile.

Yeah, these are his precious people.

And he would do anything to protect them and Nezuko.

The Demon Slayers say goodbye to the little girls and make their way to their mission.

At sundown, they reach the train station.

It's a while since Yua has been in the more modern parts of Japan, but she is excited to drive on a train for the first time.

Her excitement gets a bummer as she sees how Inosuke is freaking out about the train.

"Hey… Hey! Hey! Wha… Wh-Wha… What the hell is this creature?! I bet this is that thing! The master of this land! The ruler of this land! See how long it is? So intimidating! No mistake! It looks like it's asleep right now, but don't let your guard down!"

"Uh, no, it's a train.", deadpans Zenitsu at him and Yua the queen of Deadpanning is a tiny bit proud. "Haven't you ever seen one before?"

"Shush! Calm down! I'll lead the charge!"

Inosuke prepares to fight the train.

"Hold up, Inosuke!", stops him Tanjiro.

At least her boyfriend isn't some country bumpkin.

"Huh?"

"You never know, it might be the guardian spirit of this land. Also, you shouldn't attack all of a sudden."

Yua takes it back...and are these sparkles around Tanjiro?

"Tanjiro, babe...", she says exasperated, rubbing her forehead. "A train is a vehicle for transporting people. It's not gonna eat us." (A sentence she would regret later)

"Both of them are country bumpkins, Yua-Senpai.", huffs Zenitsu with crossed arms.

Well, she can't say something against it.

It makes her feel dirty.

"Huh? A train?", repeats Tanjiro surprised. "So is that what Kaguya was talking about?"

Suddenly Inosuke walks toward the station building, while his friends stare at him in confusion.

What is he planning now?

He charged the train and headbutted it!

"Stop it! Talk about embarrassing!", scold Zenitsu and Yua together.

Of course, two station attendants saw all this and ran up to them. They start to shout for the police when they see all of the group's Katanas.

"MOVE IT GUYS!", shouts Yua.

Fast she throws Tanjiro over her shoulder, while Zenitsu drags Inosuke by the arm away. They managed to hide from the station attendants and police.

The moon is raised as Zenitsu gives it to Inosuke: "Thanks to you, we went through hell, Inosuke! Say you're sorry!"

"Huh?! In the first place, why did we have to run from the police?!", he asked.

It's Yua who answers him, hand on her hips. "The Demon Slayer Corps isn't an officially recognized organization by the government. Walking in broad daylight with our Katanas out is dumb, it only gets us in trouble. We can't tell the normal mass about demons, they would think us mad and probably look us up somewhere."

"Even though we're working so hard?", ask Tanjiro a bit sad.

His girlfriend pats his shoulder.

"It can't be helped, Tanjiro. It's how it is. People don't wanna know the truth about what lurks in the dark. Being ignorant is a blessing."

"For now, let's hide our Katana's on our backs.", adds Zenitsu.

The three hear how Inosuke giggles, then the wild boy stands up and shows them his back... where you can see his Katana's clear as daylight.

All three are deadpanning. Yua feels again proud.

"You can see them. Put on some clothes, idiot.", advises Zenitsu, still deadpanning.

However, they don't have time to look for clothes since the train starts to drive away.

"Oh crap, they are driving away without us!", shouts Yua.

"Are the police still around?", asks Zenitsu.

"We'll have to go even if they are.", tell Tanjiro.

Like the maniac wild boy he is, Inosuke jumps out from their hidey hole and challenges the train to a race.

"Oh kami, that guy!", shouts Yua, but races after him and the train. "Guys let's go!"

She can hear how Tanjiro and Zenitsu follow them.

Inosuke, Yua and Tanjiro jump on the train while Zenitsu trails behind. He calls for his friends and the three manage to pull him onto the back of the train.

"Haha! Man, it's fast!", laughs Inosuke excitedly.

"I know what you mean.", agreed Yua, her long midnight blue hair dancing in the wind. "That's my first time on a train too."

Zenitsu turned to Tanjiro asking him if it was right to bring Nezuko with them if she would be safer at the Demon Slayer Corps Headquarters. Tanjiro told him that it was fine and that no one would separate him and his sister.

The red-haired boy feels how someone takes his hand and squeezes it.

He doesn't need to look to know it's his girlfriend.

And what she is telling him with this.

I will be on your side too. Always.

He squeezes with the same feeling back.

And so the Mugen Train rolls into the night, the four Demon Slayers and a Demon Girl none wiser what nightmares they would encounter on it.
