'Hashira?! What is the 'hashira'? What does that mean?' Nezuko looked up and saw 6 people staring at her,
'Who are these people? Where am I?" The lady with a butterfly hair accessories spoke up,
"This is the demon slayer corps headquarters. And you Nezuko Kamado, are about to be put on trial."

A man with firey hair then spoke up,
"There's no need for a trial here! Protecting demons is clearly a violation of conduct! We can deal with it by ourselves! Let's just chop her head off along with the demon's!"
The Flame Hashira: Kyojuro Rengoku.

"Then let me cut his head off flamboyantly. I'll show I can spray the blood more flamboyantly than anyone else. I'll be a flamboyant flamboyance"
The Sound Hashira: Tengen Uzui.

'Eeehh... we're gonna kill such a cute kid? My chest hurts, oh so much'
The Love Hashira: Mitsuri Kanroji.

"Aw... what pitiful children, how sad. It's a tragedy they were even born!"
The Stone Hashira: Gyomei Himejima.

'What were those clouds again? What were they called?'
The Mist Hashira: Muichiro Tokito.

"Let's kill him"
"Uh-huh!"
"Yeah. Flamboyantly" Nezuko just stared up at them shocked until she realised something,
'TANJIRO!! WHERE'S TANJIRO! Y/N! ZENITSU! INOSUKE! MURATA-SAN!' Nezuko eyes darted around the area.

"More importantly. What are we we gonna do about Tomioka?" Nezuko looked in the direction of the voice, where there was a man laying in a tree.

"I have a headache seeing him not bound there. According to Kocho, Tomioka violated demon slayer conduct as well. How will we deal with him? How will we make him take responsibility? How are we gonna make him suffer?"
The Serpent Hashira: Iguro Obanai.

'As usal Iguro-San is as cool menacing as a snake. He's reliable which is nice' Mitsuri gushed, she then looked over to Giyuu,
'Tomioka-San's all alone so far away there. So cute'. She continued gushing.

The lady with the butterfly hair accessories changed the subject,
"Well, its fine, right? He followed me without causing a ruckus. Let's think of a punishment later. More importantly, I want to hear this girl's story"
The Insect Hashira: Shinobu Kocho.

Nezuko felt kind of guilty for Giyuu,
'Because of me Tomioka-San is... ...!' Nezuko started violently coughing. Shinobu kneeled in front of the girl,
"Here drink some water. Your jaw is hurt so drink slowly. ...Then you can talk" Shinobu brought the small bottle towards Nezuko's lips,
"There is a painkiller in there, so you will ease up a bit. Your wounds hasn't healed so don't over do it" She then put the cap back onto the bottle.

"My brother was turned into a demon. But he has never eaten any human flesh! He hasn't... and he won't! Tanjiro will never hurt anyone!"
Iguro pointed at Nezuko,
"Don't spit out stupid rash remarks so recklessly. For starters of he'd protect his family. I can't trust anything you're saying, and I won't true them".

Gyomei started to cry,
"Ahhhh... she's possessed by a demon. Let's kill this pitiful child quickly and release her from suffering" Nezuko spoke up,
"PLEASE LISTEN!! I BECAME A SWORDSMAN TO CURE TANJIRO! IT'S BEEN TWO YEARS SINCE TANJIRO BECAME A DEMON AND IN THAT TIME NEZUKO HASN'T EATEN A PERSON!"

"Your story is simply going around in circles. He hasn't eaten people and he won't eat people from now on. Don't just give lip service, give us a more flamboyant explanation." Tengen stated,
'What is that bird...? ehh...' Muichiro just looked up at the sky not paying attention to the fiasco which was happening around him.

"Ummm. But I have a question... it doesn't seem like Oyakata-Sama has grasped this situation yet. Can we just deal with it on our own like this? We should wait until he arrives..." After Mitsuri spoke everyone started at her, while Mitsuri looked around awkwardly.

"MY BROTHER HAS FOUGHT ALONGSIDE ME! HE CAN FIGHT FOR THE DEMON SLAYER CORPS AND PROTECT PEOPLE! SO!-" Nezuko was caught off by someone new walking up to the group,
"Whoa whoa, this got somewhat interesting" Everyone looked at the person, and Nezuko stared at them in shock.

"Please don't Shinazugawa-Sama! Let go of the box please!" Two panicked kakushis stood next to the person,
"So you're the idiotic member who brought the demon. What the hell were you planning to do?"
The Wind Hashira: Sanemi Shinazugawa.
Sanemi had a creepy smile on his face and was holding up Tanjiro's box slightly above his head with one of his hands.

Mitsuri started fangirling,
'He has even more scars than before how rugged!'
"Kocho-Sama, please forgive us..." the kakushi apologised,
"Please don't act so rashly, Shinazugawa-San"
'Shinobu-San sounds angry. That's rare. How cool!'.

Sanemi grabbed a hold of the handle of his katana,
"What's a demon to you, kiddo? You say he can protect people and fight for the corps? You see, about that..." he raised his katana,
"THAT'S IMPOSSIBLE YOU MORON!" He then stabbed the box. Nezuko just stared shocked at the wind hashira. The blade of the katana went completely through the box impaling Tanjiro who was inside of the box.

Nezuko saw some of Tanjiro's blood leak out of the box, which made her snap and ran straight towards Sanemi,
"Ah..."
"I DON'T CARE IF YOU'RE A HASHIRA OR WHATEVER! I WON'T LET ANYONE HURT MY BROTHER!!" The hashira started to laugh,
"HAHAHAHA!! THAT SO? GOOD FOR YOU!"
"STOP IT!! OYAKATA-SAMAIS ARRIVING SOON!" Giyuu called out which slightly distracted Sanemi.

Sanemi tried to slice at Nezuko who leaped over his attack and kicked him the nose. The kick knocked over Sanemi due to him being distracted and not expecting it, Nezuko also fell to the ground due to having her hand tied behind her back,
"Pffft-! I'm so sorry" Mitsuri covered her face trying to stop herself from laughing.

Obanai observed the whole situation from up on the tree,
'Although Tomioka interjected on the side there, she landed a blow on Shinazugawa' he looked towards Nezuko and saw her gripping onto the straps of Tanjiro's box.

Nezuko kneeled in front of Tanjiro's box shielding it,
"IF YOU CAN'T TELL THE DIFFERENCE BETWEEN A GOOD DEMON AND A BAD DEMON... THEN YOU DON'T DESERVE TO BE A HASHIRA!!" Sanemi's nose was bleeding and he glared at Nezuko,
"DAMN YOU... I'LL RIP YOU TO SHREDS!!".

"The Master of the mansion has arrived" one of the white haired twins called out,
"Welcome... my dear demon slayers".
