Chapter 19

One of the hands reached up to Susamarus head and crushed it. The katana dropped from Nezukos mouth, due to being to shocked by the scene in front of her, Yushiro and Tanjiro reacted in the same way while Tamayo closed her eyes and looked away.

Tamayo walked up to the destroyed remains and knealed down in front of one of the eyes and inspected it,
'...'
"Is she dead?" Nezuko looked at Tamayo,
"She will be soon, it's the curse. Kibutsuji's cells remain in the body to destroy the flesh. Basically... fighting between demons is meaningless. It is impossible to strike a fatal blow... unless it's done by sunlight or the katana of a demon slayer." Tamayo looked down again at the eye."However Kibutsuji can destroy a demons cells."

Yushiro ran up to where Nezuko was and shoved a piece of cloth by her mouth,
"Don't fall prey to Lady Tamayos power... or you'll die too!" He glared down at the girl,
"Nezuko... she is not one of the twelve kizuki" Nezuko made a surprised sound while Yushiro just looked in Tamayos direction. Tamayo continued,
"The numbers of the twelve kizuki are engraved on their eyeballs, her eyes are not marked."

Tamayo pointed at the eyeball laying in front of her,
"The other one is not in the twelve kizuki either, he was too weak",
'TOO WEAK?! SERIOUSLY?' Tamayo pulled out a syringe and injected it into a lump of flesh,
"I have the blood." She put the syringe with the blood sample into a small thin wooden box.

"I will tend to Tanjiro. Unfortunately, on top of treating his wounds... I also allowed him to inhale some of my spell. I'm sorry." Yushiro sneered,
"What dumb demons, serves them right for threatening Lady Tamay. Enough already! You hold your own cloth! I don't want to be away from Lady Tamayo! Not even for a moment!" Yushiro got up and stormed off.

Nezuko just held the cloth over her mouth with dotted eyes,
"..."
"Te... Ma... Ri... ...Te... Ma... Ri..." Nezuko looked over at the now deceased demon with sympathy and army crawled over to the temari ball which was by what was left of the demon. She sat herself up onto her knees and placed her hand on the ball.

She slightly rolled the ball forward,
"Here a temari."
"Lets... play. Pl..." Nezuko moved the cloth away from her mouth,
"..."
'She's like a small child. But she's killed so many people'.

The sun started to rise above the brick wall and the demons body started to burn only leaving behind the temari ball and her kimono.

Nezuko walked up to the whole in the house,
"Tamayo..."
"This was. Underground" a muffled voice replied. Nezuko walked into the house and spotted some stairs leading down into a basement. She reached the bottom and Tanjiro ran up to her,
"Tanjiro!" The two siblings embraced each other.

Tanjiro let go of Nezuko and turned around,
"Tanjiro...?" Tanjiro hugged Tamayo and Yushiro just looked at Tanjiro annoyed. Tanjiro turned to look at Yushiro and started to pat his head,
"Tanjiro has been this way for a little while... is it normal?" Tamayo moved her head to look at Nezuko.

"It's alright. He probably... thinks of you two as part of our family."
"? But doesn't the hypnosis placed on Tanjiro... only make humans look like family? And we're demons!" Yushiro tried pushing Tanjiros hand away from him,
"Stop that!".

Nezuko smiled,
"But Tanjiro sees you as humans, that's why he tried to protect you." Tanjiro was properly hugging Tamayo now,
"I didn't like putting him under hypnosis... so I'm glad he seems to still have his own–"
Tears started to form in Tamayos eyes Nezuko started to panic,
"OH! I'M SORRY! TANJIRO! TANJIRO! STOP! LET GO OF HER! IT'S RUDE!" Nezuko rushed towards the duo.

Tamayo hugged Tanjiro back,
"Thank you, Tanjiro. Thank you...".

"We are leaving this city. We came too close to Kibutsuji. If we don't hide ourselves soon, it will become dangerous for us. Besides... although we were well hidden, as a doctor I dealt with humans and... sooner or later someone would notice we are demons. Children and the elderly are particularly sharp."

"Nezuko"
"Yes?"
"May we take care of Tanjiro?"
"Huh?"
"I can't say he will definitely be safe, but the danger will be less than if he went into battle with you." Yushiro looked distraught as he stared at Tamayo.

Nezuko thought about Tamayos offer for a moment and turned to look at Tanjiro when he grabbed her hand. Nezuko smiled and looked down for a moment,
"Thank you for the offer... but... we'll continue to travel together, we aren't going to split up." Tamayo smiled,
"I understand. Then I pray for good fortune in your war. Goodbye then, we will erase all traces of our presence, you should go too."

"Oh okay!" Nezuko then gestured to Tanjiro,
"Well... the sun is up, so I need... his box" Yushiro had his back to the three and decided to speak up,
"Nezuko. You are quite pretty." Nezuko just smiled at that in return.

"SOUTH, SOUTHEAST! SOUTH, SOUTHEAST! SOUTH, SOUTHEAST! YOUR NEXT GOAL IS TO THE SOUTH, SOUTHEAST!" Nezuko was currently on her way to her next mission she currently had a hand covering one of her ears,
"I got it! I got it! Could you quiet down a bit?"

"PLEASE? PLEASE PLEASE PLEASE! MARRY ME!" A blonde guy was clinging onto a girl who looked distressed, while a person with (h/c) was trying to pull the blonde off the woman,
"I DON'T KNOW WHEN I'LL DIE! SO I WANT  YOU TO MARRY ME! PLEASE?" The blonde wailed,
"Zenitsu get off of her!"

"What the-?" Nezuko just stood there stunned by the odd scene in front of her.

Currently I'm not home, and yesterday I got bored and saw that Titanic was on and I started watching it.
By watching the like 20/30 minutes of Titanic has inspired me to write a titanic fic.
Also why can't Jack and Rose say a single sentence without saying each others name because it gets annoying after awhile.
