Hinami and I made it to the village that evening, and Tanjiro was nowhere to be found.
Hinami: He must not be here yet?
Kane: Looks like it.
I looked a wall in the distance, and I could smell... something, on the other side. It was a familiar scent. I thought about it and my eyes widened. I walked towards the wall as Hinami looked confused.
Hinami: What are you-
I put my hand against the wall as it passed right through. Hinami walked over, surprised.
Kane: Come on.
I walked through the wall, staring at a house that was not there before. Hinami tensed, her Ukaku forming behind her. I put my hand up.
Kane: It's fine, the people here are friends. I spent a year here after that first Final Selection...
I walked up to the door, but before I could reach for the handle, it opened.
Yushiro: Who are you, and what is your business here?
I smirked, crossing my arms.
Kane: Come on, Yushi. It's only been a year, surely you remember me.
He sighed, glaring at me.
Kane: I told you not to call me that. And who's she?
He pointed towards Hinami.
Kane: A close friend.
Yushiro: Is she human?
I shook my head.
Yushiro: Then why is she out in the sun?
Hinami groaned in frustration as her eyes turned pitch black with red pupils.
Kane: She's a Ghoul, just like me.
Yushiro: I see... please, come inside. I'm sure Lady Tamayo will be happy to see you again.
We followed him inside as he led us into a room, where there was a lady with her back turned to us. There was also an operating table and a variety of other medical tools.
Kane: Nice to see you again, Tamayo-Sama.
Tamayo turned around, smiling at me.
Tamayo: Ah, it's been a long time Kane Kabuki. How is Isa?
Kane: Well, she's a Hashira now, so I guess that speaks for itself.
Tamayo smiled, turning back to her work.
Tamayo: Well I'm glad that you're both-
She froze midsentence, dropping her pencil.
Tamayo: He's... here? In the city?
My eyes widened, there was only one person who Tamayo was afraid of. I walked towards the door.
Tamayo: Kane, where are you going?
Kane: If he's here, then I'm killing him tonight. I'll see to it that he pays for what he did to my mother, and every other life he's destroyed.
With that I dropped into the shadows, appearing in the city. The sun was gone and the moon was starting to come up. And that meant that Muzan was probably out. I heard screaming, and looked down the street where I saw Tanjiro, pinning a demon on the ground. I appeared next to him, emerging from his shadow and swiftly cutting off the demon's head. A woman nearby fell to her knees, sobbing.
Woman: My... my boyfriend...
I knelt next to her, putting my hand on her shoulder.
Kane: I'm sorry for your loss, miss, but I couldn't let him kill anyone. I assure you... he felt no pain.
