The group is standing quiet in the room. Since the day Shinobu has told the news, they've been empty.

Nezuko holds her brother's hand in order to start a conversation.

"It's been one week since she told us. I don't know what to do.." Kaigaku finally speaks.

"Me neither." Says the boar head.

"I mean there isn't any cure?! We need to find something else." Kaigaku questions.

Nezuko nods and writes down something.

"We could search in the books Shinobu has."

"That's true!" Yells Kaigaku.

"Shinobu has already searched." Sighs Inosuke.

The room is silent once again.

"I just wish..I wish he could say his last goodbye." Kaigaku whispers, tearing up.

"Shut up! He is not going to-" Inosuke gets interrupted.

Tanjiro, who has been silent the whole time, stands up. His eyes glowing. He runs out the room.

The three look at each other and go after him.

They arrive to where Zenitsu's room is.

"What are you doing?!" Kaigaku shouts confused.

"Don't question it." Inosuke says.

Tanjiro goes to the blonde's bedside table. He opens the drawer and finds what he was looking for. He looks around the papers.

He then grabs all of them and quickly leaves.

"Tanjiro!"

His friends leave the room and run after him, Nezuko first.



Meanwhile, the Hashiras are having a meeting.

"As you might know, the whole demon situation has been going up." Giyuu informs.

The door burst opens to see Tanjiro.

"Kamado?" Rengoku asks confused.

The rest of the Hashiras are also confused. It was the first time Tanjiro left the Butterfly Estate. Was he better?

The three arrive a few seconds later.

"You are out of control Tanjiro!" Shouts Kaigaku.

"LOOK AT THIS!" Tanjiro finally yells.

He drops all the papers in front of them.

"Letters?" Questions Muichiro.

"ZENITSU'S LETTERS. I always saw him write these and hide them in his bedside table but I just ignored it. These are his goodbye letters!" He says, tearing up. "But look!"

He grabs them again one by one.

"Mitsuri! Shinobu! Tomioka! Gyomei! Muichiro! Rengoku! Iguro! Sanemi! Tengen!-" he shouts names written in the letters.

"What are you doing Kamado?!" Yells Sanemi annoyed.

"-Genya! Kanao! Aoi! Senjuro! Sumi, Kiyo, Naho!-"

"Stop this nonsense!" Kaigaku yells "Stop it."

"Inosuke! Nezuko! Kaigaku! Gramps!" He stops, no letters left.

"What are you trying to say?!"

"WHERE IS MINE?! Where is MY letter?!" Tanjiro yells "And don't you DARE tell me he didn't have one. Because he did. WHERE IS IT?!"

Everyone is silent.

He looks over to Mitsuri.

"Mitsuri! I'm sure you know!" He steps closer to her when Iguro stops him, grabbing him to the ground.

Nezuko yells for her brother.

"That's enough from you Tanjiro. We don't know where the letter is!"

"ENOUGH!" shouts Shinobu. She looks right into burgundy's eyes.

Tanjiro is crying.

Shinobu sighs and picks something from her pocket. She drops it on the floor.

"You had it?" Tanjiro asks

"It was in his pocket before the accident.." Shinobu replies

"Read it in your own risk." She says finally.

Iguro lets the boy go.

Tanjiro runs and picks up the letter, his name in front of it. He looks at Shinobu.

"Thank you.." he finally says before leaving.
