"Should we tie up their arms?" The girl with her down asked,
"Yes. And don't forget the warning to be careful" replied the girl with two braids.

After the kids tied there wrists with the slayers, they sat opposite or close to there chosen slayer.
'Count as you breathe deeply and slowly. Then you'll fall asleep. One... Two... Three... Four... Five... Six... Seven...'.

"Then Nezuko suddenly started crying, so I was surprised" Hanako explained,
"That's weird. Ha ha ha!" Takeo laughed,
"Oh... Nezuko, you must be tired. Don't push yourself too hard. Please, rest today" Kie looked at her oldest daughter in concern.

Kie kneeled in front of her and placed her on Nezukos cheek,
"You're just exaggerating. I'm fine!" Nezuko's cheeks turned slightly red from embarrassment,
"Are you sure?"
"Yeah. It felt like I was having some sorta bad dream" Nezuko smiled.

"HWAAAAAH!"
"GAH!" Shigeru had sneaked up from behind Nezuko and covered her with a blanket,
"WHAT'RE YOU DOING!" Shigeru laughed,
"STOP IT! I JUST WASHED THAT!!" Hanako called out. Kie and Takeo just smiled as the watched the situation.

"Have a nice sleep~ forget how to breathe~ so the demons will reap~ it's fun isn't it? They began having happy dreams. They're sleeping deeply and can't wake up anymore" Enmu was still standing at the front of the train.

"Huh? Where's Tanjiro?" Nezuko suddenly asked,
"Brother went out to get some wood" Takeo replied,
"HUH? IN THE AFTERNOON!?" Everyone looked at Nezuko,
"Is that bad?"
"Ah, no... huh?" Nezuko slightly panicked.

"Nezuko, could you prepare the bath? This might take some time" Kie called from the kitchen,
"Ah, sure. I got it, I'll do it right now." Nezuko stood up and walked out of the house.
'I keep saying weird things. Maybe I'm tired...' Nezuko thought but then got distracted by a box which was leaning against a tree,
"Whoa." Nezuko walked into the buckets due to being distracted by the box, but when she looked back at to where the box was... it had disappeared.

Nezuko just stared at the place where the box once was,
'Huh, it disappeared... what the heck was that? Was there a toolbox... a moment ago? Did my eyes deceive me?'.

Nezuko walked up to the edge of the dock, buckets in hand and kneeled down. She looked into the water and shocked to see herself but in am oufit that looked like a uniform, it also looked like it was trying to say something to her. Nezuko suddenly fell or was pulled into the water,
"GET UP! THEY'RE ATTACKING! A DREAM! THIS IS A DREAM!! WAKE UP!! GET UP AND FIGHT!!" The Nezuko dressed in uniform shouted.

Nezuko then suddenly remembered everything,
'Oh yeah, I see, I... I'm on the train!!' Nezuko squeezed her eyes close.

✧*。—-—-—-—-—-—-—-—-—-—-—-—-–-✧*。

"Nezuko, gimme your pickled radish" Takeo had his chopsticks raised,
"YOU CAN'T! STOP IT!" Hanako put her hand in front of Takeo,
"Why're you taking Nezukos food like that!"
"What!"
"You had your seconds awhile ago!" The two bickered.

Nezuko started to panic as she looked around the room,
'Oh no, I'm in a dream I can't wake up from. What can I do to get out?! Now I know that it's a dream... What can I do!'.

✧*。—-—-—-—-—-—-—-—-—-—-—-—-–-✧*。

Back on the train Tanjiros box door swung open and Tanjiro rolled out and fell to the floor. He glanced around his surroundings and saw Rengoku choking a young girl which confused him. He then turned to Nezuko and saw her sweating and muttering in her sleep.

Tanjiro walked over to her, still in his child form. And started to shake her. She wouldn't wake up and Tanjiro started to get worried. He then had a brilliant idea and proceeded to headbut Nezuko, which made her head bleed. Tanjiro started to panic and Nezuko was then covered in pink flames.

I kno technically it hasn't been THAT long since I last updated, but it feels like forever to me. Any ways, the reason haven't updated in awhile is because I've been dealing with burnout. But to deal with that burnout I've started writing about some other fic ideas
