Metamorphasis

by ButterflyMiko

Tanjiro's sister Reiko was spirited away to the mountains and transformed into a sleeper demon for Muzan. She was returned to her home, planned to transform and kill them all—but she was taken by Inosuke to a priestess. Will she be healed; or is she doomed to destroy the Kamado family?

Reiko! Come on!" Inosuke called from the trees.

Reiko followed after him. "Hey Inosuke!"

Wanna have a climbing contest?!"

"Sure! Let's go!" Reiko scampered up the tree.

"LOOK!" Inosuke raced up the tree where they could see a beautiful waterfall.

"Wow." Reiko said in awe.

"It is! And yea it's a very good water source." Inosuke said, hopping down and drinking.

Reiko scooped some out and drank. "Mm…"

"Delicious!" Inosuke grinned water dripping down his chin.

Reiko giggled.

"Hey your family doesn't know do they?" Inosuke asked, suddenly serious.

"Know what?" Reiko asked cautiously.

"That your a demon…"

"I'm almost human again!" Reiko said defensively. "The priestess is purifying me! I only got turned halfway in the first place! But no they don't know!"

"Well in that case; guess you won't haveta tell 'em…"

"I guess not!"

Inosuke shuddered, looking up at the sky, then back at the Kamado mountain. "Best get home, it's dark…"

"I'll see you tomorrow!" Reiko headed back home.
