Chapter 48

"I punched their tickets and put them to sleep just like you said. Please put me to sleep soon too. Please let me see my dead wife and daughter" the conductor begged as he went into a bowing position,
"Please... I beg you..." he continued,
"As you wish. You did well" in front of the man was a hand with a mouth and an eye next to it, the words dream was written on the fingers of the hand.
"Sleep now... and meet your family in your dreams".

As soon as the hand finished talking the conductor collapsed to the floor.
"Um... we..." a young girl called out, behind her was 4 other children kneeling down,
"In a little while, the sleep will deepen, so wait here until then. Malevolence and signs of demons will sometimes awaken demon slayers with good instincts. When you close in to tie them up, be careful not to touch them. I have to stay in the front car for a little while. Do your best until my preparations are complete. And you may have sweet dreams too!"
"All right..." all the children acknowledged.

Rengokus dream:
Rengoku sat on the floor facing his fathers back, who was lying on the floor,
'Hmm? What did I come here to do? Oh, right. To tell my dad I became a hashira'
Rengoku then told his father the good news about him becoming a hashira,
"You became a hashira. So what? A worthless title. Who cares. Neither you nor I will ever amount to anything great." He didn't turn around to face his son.

Rengoku had left his fathers room and was walking through the hallways. He stopped when he saw a small yellow and red haired head and slightly taller h/c haired head pop out from the side off a corner,
"Oh... Senjuro and Y/n?" The two walked over to the older male.

Senjuro smiled up at him,
"Was father happy for you?" Y/n nodded next to him,
"When I become a hashira, will father praise me too?" Rengoku just looked at the duo with pity. He then kneeled down and placed both of his hands on one of Y/ns' and Senjuros' shoulder,
"To be honest... father wasn't happy for me".

Rengoku then smiled at the two,
"He said no one cares. But... That won't dampen my enthusiasm! The flame in my heart won't go out! I won't be discouraged! And, you two are different from me! You have me! And he believes in you both! Whatever path you both take you'll become great people!"
Senjuro started to tear up,
"You have a burning passion in your heart!".

Rengoku then pulled the two into a hug,
"So let's do our best! Let's work hard in life even if we're lonely!".

Y/ns dream:
'Hm? I thought I was on the train?' Y/n looked around there bedroom,
'Why am I home?'
"Y/n are you ready to leave!" A voice from somewhere else in the house called out,
'Oh! Right, Rengoku and Kanroji are taking me to a festival today' Y/n smiled, stood up and ran towards the door,
"I'm coming!" They shouted back.

They ran to the front of the house, where Mitsuri and Rengoku where waiting for them. The two heard the sound of small feet running towards them, they turned to face the younger
Y/n who was smiling ear to ear dressed in festival attire,
"Y/N!" Mitsuri squealed,
"MISS KANROJI!!" Mitsuri opened her arms for a hug and Y/n ran straight into them.

Mitsuri hugged Y/ns small frame and spun them around. When she put Y/n down Rengoku patted Y/n on the head,
"Hello to you too, Mr Rengoku!" Y/n grinned,
"Hello Y/n" Rengoku returned the smile. Y/ns father watched the trio interact with a smile. He then spoke up,
"Alright, n/n be good for Kanroji and Rengoku. All right" Y/n smiled up at there father and nodded.

Mitsuri took a hold of one of Y/ns hands while Rengoku took a hold of there other hand,
"We shall be going now. Goodbye Mr
L/n" Rengoku smiled while Mitsuri waved,
"Thank you for taking Y/n to there first festival, I appreciate it. See you all later" he smiled.

Nezukos dream:
Nezuko was standing in a forest covered in snow, holding a basket filled with vegetables and was in her usual kimono and haori with her hair tied up. Nezuko began to walk forward when a house with two people in front of it revealed itself,
"OH!" The two people turned to look at Nezuko,
"Welcome back, Nezuko!"
"Did you collect enough vegetables?".

Tears started to form in Nezukos' eyes and she ran towards two of her siblings and embraced them,
"SORRY! I'M SO SORRY! I'M SORRY!" She cried.

A/n:
Hi everyone! I just wanted to say I'm in Greece now on holiday.
So hopefully I can write a lot more chapters than I usually do (and I actually edit some of my older chapters ;-;).
