Third Person:

Crow: SOUTH-SOUTHEAST! SOUTH-SOUTHEAST! SOUTH-SOUTHEAST! YOUR NEXT MISSION IS SOUTHEAST!

Nezuko's crow was yelling in her ear about where her next mission is.

Nezuko: Okay- okay, I know. But please, just stop yelling at me!

???: PLEEEEEEEEEEEEEEASEEEE!!!

Nezuko's crow jumps on her shoulder. In front of her was a girl with blonde and orange hair. It was tied into a ponytail with a black bow. She had a matching jacket with white triangles. Her uniform was a golden brown color. She was kneeling in front of a man in a blue kimono who looked terrified and upset.

?: Please! Please! Please! Please marry me! You know I could die any day now! Marry me so I don't die alone! Marry me! I'm begging you please!

Nezuko: What- what is she doing? What on earth?

A sparrow chirps and flies into Nezuko's hand.

Nezuko: Huh?

The sparrow chirps repeatedly in Nezuko's hands while the blonde girl continues to beg to the man.

Nezuko: Okay so that's it then. Okay I'll try to help!

The bird looks at Nezuko in delight.

?: Please! Please marry me! I beg you-!

Nezuko grabs the girl's haori pulling her away from the man.

Nezuko: Why are you making such a scene in the middle of the road? He's clearly not interested in you! Also, your stressing your sparrow out!

?: Wait, that uniform! Are you that girl from Final Selection?

Nezuko: Don't go pretending like we know each other cause we don't okay?!

?: Aaaah! But we have met! Don't you remember? Don't get angry at me when you're the one with the terrible memory!

The two stare at each other for a bit. Nezuko let's her haori go and bows to the harassed man.

Nezuko: Alright, you're all set to go home again. Do you need anything else?

Man: No, thank you very much!

?: HANG ON! Don't you interfere! That guy is madly in love with me! The two of us are gonna get married- AAAAAHHHH!

The man continuously slaps the girl and continues to. Nezuko stares in shock.

Nezuko: Hey! Calm down!

Nezuko holds the man back while the slapped girl cries.

Man: When did I say anything when I doubted that I loved you?! All I did was come talk to you while you looked I'll on the side of the road!

?: HUHHHH?! No! So the only reason you did that was because you weren't falling in love with me?!

Man: Considering that I already have a fiancé that's exactly what I've been trying to tell you! Well you seem to be perfectly fine now! So goodbye!

?: W-wait! Come back! Please...

Nezuko: Will you give it a rest already?

?: Why did you have to get in my way? This had nothing to do with you!

?: What's with that look on your face?! Stop it! You're staring at me like I'm some sort of creature or something! No, listen here you! The reason I missed out on getting married is your fault!

Nezuko gives him the most disgusted look she possibly could.

?: Say something would ya! Look! During my next stop, I'll likely die! The reason is, I'm just a weakling! Do you understand? You have to help protect me until I manage to get married, Miss!

Nezuko: My name's Nezuko and you are?

Kanao: Nezuko? That's good to know! I'm Kanao Tsuyuri! Please, you gotta do what you can to save me!

Nezuko: Aren't you being a bit dramatic? Why did you even become a swordswoman? You're acting a bit pathetic right now.

Kanao: That's a harsh way to put it! I got swindled by a woman who got caught up in a lot of debt! The old lady who took me in happened to be this tough as nails instructor! She made me train until the bone of me, dead! It was so hellish I just wanted to die! I was hoping that would happen at Final Selection! But since I survived this nightmare continues to haunt me! I'm so scared! Terrified! Frightened! I just know I'm gonna get eaten by a demon soon! My brains are gonna get sucked through my ears while I'm still alive! No! No! Please save me!

Nezuko: Hey are you- okay?

Kanao whimpers while Nezuko holds her back, giving her the dot eyes. Meanwhile the Sparrow and the Crow talk to each other.
