Monster? (Demon Tanjiro)

ᴄʜᴀᴘᴛᴇʀ 7: ʙᴀᴄᴋ ʜᴏᴍᴇ

Tanjiro happily walked with Giyuu, he could see everyone again! Giyuu sensed something different about Tanjiro, but couldn't figure out what, exactly. They headed to the butterfly mansion, and Nezuko, Kanao, Zenitsu and Inosuke were training

"Nezuko! Inosuke! Zenitsu! Kanao!"

That voice, could it really be? They looked towards where the voice came from, and there they saw Tanjiro running towards them

"Tanjiro?!" 

They all shouted

Tanjiro ran to them and gave them a hug

"Onii-chan...you're okay..!"

"Of course I am Nezuko! I can never leave you alone..."

"T-Tanjiro..."

"Kentarooooo!"

"Tanjiro!"

They reunited, and they all cried, they missed each other very much. The news that Tanjiro had returned was spread throughout the corps. Tanjiro had been back for 2 days now, but the group found so,ething weird, and a meeting was called to discuss this.

"Hello, my children"

"Greetings Oyakata-sama"

"As you have heard, Tanjiro has returned, although some of you had your suspicions, that something is off. There is a feeling to suspect, that he is a demon."

"That brat betrayed us now?"

"Do not assume that yet, we do not have full proof, Tanjiro currently is at the butterfly mansion, i want you to bring him over to make sure"

"You heard the master, bring him here now, tie him up, he might be dangerous"

With Tanjiro

Tanjiro was chilling in the garden, when Shinobu came over

"Ah, hello Shinobu-san, what do you ne—"

Shinobu knocked him out

"I'm sorry Tanjiro, but some confirmation is needed"

Shinobu brought Tanjiro to the meeting area, and he was tied up. He woke up a few minutes later

"E-eh?! Why am I tied up? Did I do anyt—"

"Shut up traitor!"

"I-what?"

"Sanemi, we are not sure yet, dont be so mean"

"Tanjiro, my child, we have a suspicion that you are a demon..."

Tanjiro flinched, and it was noticed by everyone

"I-I...y-yes I am..."

Tanjiro said, regret in his voice

"Hah?! How are you in the sun?"

"I'm special.."

"And Shinobu informed me that she could sense you've eaten a human, or multiple..."

This caught the Hashiras' attention, and they looked at Tanjiro, waiting for the truth snd confirmation

"So?"

"Y-yes, I have, It wasn't willingly! I-I was forced!"

Tanjiro said

Gasps were heard
