"That was less than astounding." a female voice is heard. "Yes well, it would be more impressive back -----" a male one is heard as well. "Well ------- I think here in --------, I think even a lieutenant could do a better job." the man put his hand to his chest "hurtful -------." the female voice snickered "I believe you're meant to use my last name where you are from -------, we only met two days ago after all."
the man laughs, holding his hand out "right, miss Degurechaff"

Tanya jumped up in the air, "...blazing universe!" her slash-cut down at the short demon, Udar, who just barely got out of the way. "Tss, what an annoying runt!" Tanya just smirked at Udar "you're one to talk." the demon snarled back yelling "shut the hell up!" it lunged at Tanya, who felt her arm being grabbed right before Udar's hand seeming grabbed it "what?" she muttered before her momentary distraction caused her to be thrown into a wall, "damn, what's this demons deal?" she muttered as Udar came back over at her.
"Tanya?" Kyujuro looked back, hearing Tanya slam against the wall. Due to this Zettour nearly scratched his cheek, but the flame hashira was able to move away, and then cut off Zettour's arm with a flamed slash, but it grew back not long after. "It is cheap to attack your enemy when he is distracted!" Kyujuro shouted as he grasped his sword harder. Zettour just chuckled "then I suggest you stop looking at your girl and pay attention, being distracted has killed more soldiers than bullets." the former general spoke as he suddenly extended his tongue out at Kyujuro, which surprised him, unlike the others he had not been told about Zettour's copying abilities, nor did he even know about the tongue demon.
"First form; unknowing flame" Kyujuro cut away the tongue only for Zettour to nearly scratch him again 'he is even faster than last time.' the smiling man thought to himself as he backed away from Zettour. Meanwhile, Tanya avoided the short demon more, but she still felt something touch her whenever his hand was mere inches away from her. 'How could he possibly be, touching without his hand actually touching me.' she thought to herself as she then used the fourth form of Flame breathing to cut away at his eyes, only he kept going and nearly kicked her in the face. "That can't be!" the demon just smirked as its eyes came back, and yet the short demon seemed to be able to even before his eyes returned.
'Something keeps nearly grabbing me every time he gets close, every time I use a form my breathing is spread out, and that allows Zettour's blood to further spread up my body.' Tanya tries to think of a plan. She looks over at Kyujuro, whos been forced on the defensive since Zettour's limbs regrow almost instantly every time one arm gets cut off. If he gets one cut on Kyujuro both were on a time limit, and Tanya was far too along with herself. She elements the fact that they were being done in by a lower-ranked demon and an unranked one, though the unranked short demon seemingly had invisible-
Tanya blinked 'son of- that is it!' her devil-like grin returned, as she stared at the short demon Udar just backed up. "T-the hell is with that look?" he said in a stuttering tone, 'that smile and that flame hashira with the smile, both are off-putting in different ways.' Tanya then ran at Udar. "water breathing, second form, and flame breathing, first form; flame wheel!" Suddenly Tanya jumped a little and spun in the air, a circular red flame went around. "Ahhh!" Udar yelled as he backed away. It was only for a moment, but from the seemingly blank space above the short demon, black and purple blood drank from nothing.
Tanya's grin widened, finally a chance to get rid of the other demon and focus on Zettour. Still, she had no idea if she hit the actual head or if his actual body was even taller. She looked over at Kyujuro, and a plan to take down Udar formed. "Kyujuro, do you remember that demon that could fly?" Kyujuro slashed away Zettour again before answering "I sure do, why?" Tanya rushed at Udar, who was aware Tanya knew the secret of his power in that it hid his actual body, now it was him retreating away. But Tanya was not going to let him. "Could you get yourself away from that old man? We are going to need to do what we did back then, this time, you from above." Zettour huffed at being called an old man, but after his arm was cut away, Kyujuro kicked him into a wall and ran at Udar from behind.
Udar back away, having no idea what the two slayers were going to do. His "face" sneered, 'I'm done for if they hit my real neck, but if they miss, I can use my actual hand to punch the girl in the lungs, that outta allow Zettour's blood to spread quicker. He jumped up in the air when Tanya got close, but he heard a large jump behind him and noticed both Tanya and Kyujuro jumped as well. "Flame breathing, third form; blazing universe!" Kyujuro's blade involved in flames, as did Tanya's after she yelled "second form; rising scorching sun!" the demon only came to see the terrible situation he put himself in before it was too late. The two swords slashed above his "head" through hard invisible skin, till they clashed with one another, causing an explosion of flames around the room.
By the time the dust settled, Zettour could see Udar, his full actual tall body disappearing. The room was somewhat covered in flames. 'These two are strong' he thought to the obvious to himself, but the fire would impede breathing. He was certain that Kyujuro and Tanya together could beat him easily, or rather they could if one of them was not on a time limit, and he could already see a little bit of the white vein outline on Tanya's neck. 'And soon she will have even less time.' he said as he suddenly cut a length up his arm, some odd smoky cloud coming out of it.
'Thanks to Tamayo I can force them to hold their breaths. Once Tanya is under my control the flame hashira is next, given how easily he was distracted when Tanya was facing my men alone, I get the feeling he won't be able to bring himself to attack his girlfriend.'
Zettour walked forward, as did the two slayers. "Ready to give it up old man?" Tanya said mockingly, both her and Kyujuro raising their swords up. For a moment Zettour seemed to flinch, but not because of what Tanya said. He huffed up 'I did not come this far to give up, Kibutsuji needs to fall but I need strong demons on my side to do it!' he clenched his fist, the illusionary cloud would take time to fill the room, and he had not mastered Tamaya's blood art like he had other puppets of his. He slowly raised his hand as a light shined from it, 'so instead, I will stall for time.'
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Kyogai, the drum demon, slammed his hand down on a drum twice, Tanjiro did not sniff the barely visible claw coming out at him twice till the last second, he jumped and spun in the air a little. "That was close." he breathed a sigh of relief before he heard the shaky voice of Kanao say "T-Tanjiro you're bleeding." the boy looked down at the back of his left leg, he had been hit. "It moved so fast. I-Kanao watch out!" this time both he and Kanao had to move out of the way, neither getting hit nor cut, but a tiny scratch did appear across their clothes, the claws moved fast. To fast.
"Pests, the lot of you, get out of my home," Kyogai shouted, as started banging on his tsuzumi drums, and the room started spinning, both the slayers in the room trying to keep balance. "Ah" Tanjiro grunted when his back hit the wall, which was now the floor. "Tanjiro are you okay?" Kanao asked worryingly. Tanjiro winced still but gave a small nod. His wounds from the fight at Tamayo's home still inflicted him a bit, but he could keep fighting.
"Kanao!" Tanjiro then jumped and pulled Kanao away from the incoming claw, the girl's cheek flushed pink for a moment, but she was able to keep the focus on the fight as Kyogai hit his left leg drum and the right arm drum, causing the room to rotate right and backward. During this spin, a few shelves of paper opened up a bit but not too much. They twisted in the air and fell down a little bit.
Kanao was prepared, as from Tanjiro's minor wincing just from her against his stomach and chest, she could tell he should not take the fall. So to soften their descent she pulled her sword aside from them. "Flower breathing, sixth form; whirling peach." her movement with the sword allowed her body, along with Tanjiro who was still holding her to turn once more, and also slowed the fall a bit so that when Kanao his the flow below them it dampened the pain. Though Tanjiro was now on top of her as a result. "K-kanao, I am so sorry!" he instantly backed away but offered her a hand to help her up. Kanao's regular smile brightened up a bit 'if I was like Kanae or Shinobu, I would tease him for this.' she knew though she lacked the confidence and would feel too embarrassed afterward.
Kyogai growled a bit 'these two slayers should be dead by now. I will prove Muzan wrong!' the drum demon thought back to when the king of demons revoked his lower rank title, and when Zettour came to him not long after, a couple of months ago, and not only made him stronger, but is now giving him an opportunity to get his ranking back from the pesky demon who stole it from him! he stepped forward a bit, "you two, that damn blonde brat, the fugitive Tamayo, what other damn pests will feel my wrath." he put brought his hands out, and both Tanjiro and Kanao raised their swords.
"And I will reclaim my place amongst the Twelve Kizuki!" while Kyogai spoke, his left eye turned around, revealing his pupil with an X-out cross, covering kanji for 'lower 6' which caused Tanjiro's eyes to widen. 'That must mean he is close to Kibutsuji! But what did he mean by 'reclaim'?' Tanjiro had not the time to think, as the demon was making its move now.
Holding his hands and arms out Kyogai would say in a low snarling voice "Rapid drumming." his arms started moving around at incredible speeds, as his hands constantly hit and smacked the drums, creating a rhythm of drums that filled the form. Suddenly the room started spinning at a rapid pace, Kanao and Tanjiro unable to even touch what would become the floor or walls and the spinning kept going and going, it was enough to make one hurl. Tanjiro ducked, but a few hit cheeks got cut. "There are five? No, six?!" Tanjiro shouted out as Kanao was cut by the longer length of the six claws as well, some bits of blood dripping from her arm.
Though this is less than an idea, a spinning room meant they had to keep themselves moving. "Water breathing, sixth form; whirlpool," Tanjiro said as he did that form along with a few other forms to keep himself focused on the fight as well as avoid the six claws that continuously came at him and Kanao. While Kanao did the same "flower breathing, third form; Camellia Ascension." Kanao did this to raise herself from more claws, much like Tanjiro followed up by more forms afterward.
Paper had filled the room due to the shelves falling over along with the books. They floated around the room with the two slayers, miraculously avoiding being up by the swords. Which Kyogai was thankful for. At that point, he stopped his barrage of drum music as the room came to a halt, all the paper as well as Tanjiro and Kanao fell to the floor. A group of paper scattered on the floor is now properly below them. Tanjiro widened his eyes and looked at Kanao "avoid the pages!" Kanao did not know the reason Tanjiro wanted this, but she complied.
Both Tanjiro and Kanao landed between two empty spaces and made careful movements not to step on the paper, along with the writing on them. The two had minor injuries, but their clothes were what were damaged more. Bits of their sleeves, or pants, or skirt in Kanao's case. But not enough that much was revealed.
Kyogai's mouth open agape "w-what" he whispered out. He looked over at Tanjiro who was still looking around in case he was stepping on any paper, which he was not. 'This slayer, he purposefully avoids the paper, the paper and books with my writing in them no less.' his head then turned over to Kanao, who was not looking around like her male counterpart, but she did not need to since no paper was around her. 'And he got the girl to do so as well…'
Kyogai thought back, back to when he had even become a demon. How he killed that man for berating his work both with his writings and drums. And when Muzan took away his lower rank, told him "just having my blood is not enough, you have to kill and eat more blood. You do not deserve to be a part of the Twelve Kizuki."
When Zettour found him he was trying to find more humans with Marechi blood. How the lower 2 demons offered him a chance to rejoin him, rejoin the twelve Kizuki. He had said "your blood demon art is useful" but he doubted Zettour actually meant that, he was just another pawn in the former general's scheme, whatever it was. Since he was never even entrusted with that information. He then heard the humans speaking.
"Kanao, do you think you can pull it off?" Tanjiro asked, having made a plan with Kanao while Kyogai had stood there. "You, boy and girl, what are your names?" the demon asked as he raised his hands up, ready for another intense beat of his drum. Tanjiro readied his sword "Tanjiro Kamado" Kanao hold up her own sword, and in a more blank tone says "Kanao Tsuyuri." Kyogai huffed a little "I am Kyogai."
With belated introductions out of the way, Kyogai once more started his rapid drumming techniques. The rapid and constant beating of the drums matched the spinning and movement of the room. But they were prepared for this, as Kanao had held on to Tanjiro and was carried on his back. "Ninth form; splashing water flow, turbulent!" Tanjiro shouted out as he made a long and fast movement across the moving walls, floor, and ceiling, with water splashing beneath his feet along with his movement. He took extra care to avoid the six claws, more importantly, keep Kanao safe. 'Kanao is trusting me, if Kyogai is focused on us as one target then the claws will not be spread out as much!' is a strategy they learned together in their training in Sagiri mountain, or rather the opposite of what Tanya taught them, instead of spreading themselves across they kept him focused on one space, even if they both were in it.
Tanjiro jumped then and spun around so Kanao could use him to jump off from. She flew through the moving room right at their demon opponent. During this Tanjiro yelled out "I want you to know Kyogai, your blood demon art was amazing and powerful!" Kyogai froze one more due to the compliment, not something either slayer planned, but it certainly helped. "First form; orchid blossoming" Kanao's sword cut right through the drum demon's neck, his head falling down.
The room stopped spinning. After they got back on their feet Tanjiro and Kanao smiled at each other, happy that they had done it. "Kamado…" Tanjiro heard his voice and turned to face the now disappearing demon, Kyogai. Kanao turned away, and she finally was able to blush as she thought about how Tanjiro had basically just given her a piggyback ride, a dangerous one yes, but it was a ride nonetheless.
"Did you really mean what you said? When you said my technique was amazing? And powerful?" Kyogai spoke, some tears running down his head, seeing the papers in the room. Tanjiro did not make direct eye contact when he responded "yes, it was one of the most powerful ones I have faced so far….but it does not take away what you've done either. You were strong Kyogai, but I can't forgive you for killing humans." the conviction in his voice told Kyogai the boy meant every word. Kyogai's head disappeared not long after. Tanjiro took out a needle "before I forget or it disappears." he threw it at Kyogai's body which was almost gone. Blood filled it without the need of someone holding the needle.
Kanao looked at Tanjiro since she did not know what the needle was for. "Oh, this is for Tamayo, that lady we told you about." Kanao still gave a look at Tanjiro, he chuckled nervously "I will explain later, promise." Kanao went for her sword when a cat, Chachamaru, appeared by Tanjiro's feet. "Oh hey, you're the little fella that helped up find this place." he started petting the cat, which calmed Kanao down when she realized the cat, despite the odd demon-like feeling it was giving her, was not an enemy. "You probably are meant to deliver this to Tamayo, Yushiro, and Gunner when I collect a Twelve Kizuki demon's blood right? But how about you help us find her here?"
The cat meowed, and after Tanjiro pet it a few more times it would go to the door of the room they fought in. "come on, let us go find those kids and lady Tamayo, then we can go find Tanya if mister Rengoku has not already." Kanao nodded, and they went off to continue their mission.

"Huh, hhhh" slightly chilled breaths are taken, and the man who makes them sits up in bed. "What is wrong my dear?" the woman sleeping beside him said, sitting up as well. "Oh, I did not mean to wake you --------" the woman sighed "still calling me that? Even after years together ----- my dear?" the man chuckled "habits die hard, you're the one that forced me into it --------"
The man's face went stern "I had an odd dream, where I was back in --------, yet different. Odd weapons, flying people, you know, something crazy like that. Next, I'll be going around thinking demons are real like ---------- always says." the woman giggled "you've had similar dreams before, maybe you miss it, which is odd since I was born there and I have been less homesick." the man chuckled, "maybe we should visit after they are born."
The woman showed off her only slightly bulged out stomach "thinking about that now are we? I am only a couple of months along." the man hugged her close "just excited degure-...sorry, --------." the woman hugged him back. The man, however, since she could not see his worried face, thought back to the part he left out for her, where he saw a girl with similar eyes to her, but a child, and one in a military uniform no less. He could only worry about the implications.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
"Blight blast!" Zettour fired Gunners demon art, now his, from his own hand. It only slightly scorched the wall behind Kyujuro after the man dodged it. Much like with Tamayo's he had not fully gotten down Gunner's demon techniques. He looked to his side where he saw the girl come at him from his left side "flame breathing, eighth form, flower breathing, the second form; underworld blossoming!" Tanya jumped up as red inflamed petals surrounded her sword and she slashed at Zettour's head. She just nipped the side of his cheeks.
Tanya tried to move away, but Zettour was still quite agile and she was forced to block a claw slash at her. Zettour aimed a blight blast at point-blank range "give in Tanya, you only have to move time left." he noticed as after another few minutes had gone by during the continuation of their fight, the veins had made it to her chin. She just smirked up at him "you know you should follow your own advice, the one you gave Kyujuro."
Zettour looked behind himself and saw Kyujuro about to cut him. His quick feet were to his boon, but he lost the prepared blight blast due to his arm getting cut off. The two slayers rushed at the lower 2 demons, "third form; blazing universe!" Kyujuro shouted out loudly as he always does. Though his vocal cords were not left alone on this one as Tanya shouted out as well "third form blazing universe!" the two of them slashed downwards, Zettour tried dodging but the two of them had managed to get an arm, and part of his head in the process.
Zettour huffed, his limps and face regrew, but the two got far too close to getting his neck. 'I can't beat them, they seem to work to well off each other. I can't get one without getting the other.' he sheathed his teeth, the smirk Tanya was giving him felt as if he was being mocked due to his previous confidence faltering. 'If only that idiot Kyogai had not banged his drum, where is he anyways?! Or the others for that matter?!" Zettour did not need to think about the others, soon drums appeared around his body, at least he still had their demon arts.
Zettour beat his hands on the tsuzumi drums a few times and the room spun in a complete circle, surprising Tanya and Kyujuro. "WOAH! Was not expecting this, this demon has more techniques than a usual demon!" Tanya could not hear Kyujuro speaking, as her eyes widened, only now could she see the multi-colored clouds filling the room, now at a more rapid pace. She remembered her talk with Tamayo before Zettour had shown up at her home. She knew the clouds were poisonous to humans due to that conversation.
Both Tanya and Kyujuro landed on their feet. "Nice trick! But it won't last long! Eh…what is this?" Kyujuro shouted at the demon, who just smirked now that both have noticed the cloud filling the room. Tanya tugged on the Flame Hashira's sleeves. "Kyujuro! Don't breathe it in, it is poisonous to humans!" Kyujuro blinked "but if we cannot breathe it in, what about the blood?" Tanya's eyes widened, if she could not breathe properly she could not delay Zettour's blood from fully flowing through her veins.
"LOOK OUT TANYA!" Kyujuro cut off Zettour's arm just as the demon came for Tanya. But that was what Zettour wanted, as he used his extended tongue to grab the sword. Kyujuro would cut the tongue quickly, but not quick enough. As Zettour managed a scratch on his left side. "Get the hell away!" Tanya shouted, using first form flame breathing to slash at Zettour, wounding the demon who did indeed, 'get the hell away' managing to get close to the door of the room.
Zettour laughed, the confidence he had lost during the fight regained. "That is two for two." he lifted his hand up, showing Kyujuro blood on it. "Without proper breathing, how will you resist me now? And once Tanya is under my control it will be even easier. Heh," the lower 2 demons held a hand out "I welcome you, to my army. Not that you will have much of a choice shortly." he was so sure he had won now, it was over.
Tanya felt hazy, she could not breathe that well. The veins were now above her mouth, and going up further and slightly faster now. 'Damn him, Zettour, such a pain in my ass. Curse you being X, damn you for putting him on the opposite side, this is almost as bad as the rhine!' Tanya's eyes widened, and her wide devil grin appeared on her face. "Kyujuro, stay back, if I fail, you'll have to promise me you'll kill this old bastard, for now, focus on keeping the blood away from your brain, get out of the room if you can after we do." all of what Tanya was saying confused Kyujuro. "A-alright, but maybe I can help." Tanya looked back at her partner, "trust me Kyujuro." the boy's smile grew, and he nodded, preparing to run out of the room whenever he was ready. Zettour's blood was making its way through his boy, and he could feel it.
"Eh? What exactly are you planning?" Zettour asked as Tanya slowly approached, and held her sword slightly out to her side. Zettour smirked and banged on the drum, three claws flew toward Tanya who ducked her head, in the moment, she took a small breath 'flower...', a few pink petals surrounded her sword, and she simply lifted her right leg to avoid the claws 'If I am almost done for anyways, might as well risk it all? So for now, I'll be a gambler, and I'll use all three little chips I have left.' Tanya thought to herself, turning her walk into a sprint.
Zettour backed away and fired a blight blast at Tanya, who slide under the blast as it only got a few hairs off her head. She took another breath 'water...' a small bit of flowing water combined with the pedals. "What are doing?" Zettour grumbled out as he fired more and more. Tanya's sprint turned into a full run, as she gripped her sword tighter, as much as she could. Zettour's blood was now just below her eyes, and she did not care. 'Flame...' the moment she got close to Zettour, flames erupted from the blade. Only instead of red, it combined with the former three. Tanya combines all three of her known forms, and the color of the flames now fits the color of her sword, dark purple.
"First form…" Tanya muttered out as she slashed upwards. The arm came off. Zettour in his shock moved back, all the way out of the room. "You aren't getting away from me!" the purple flames still surrounded the sword. Zettour banged on the drums, causing the hallway to spin instead with the two inside it. Tanya however did not care. While Zettour used the shifting hallway to quickly move all the way down, Tanya jumped from wall to wall. "Second form…" she muttered as the large flame turn into a small one. But Tanya seemed to move much quicker.
Zettour could not believe it. "You're only making my blood spread faster!" he then held both hands up and fired a blight blast, multiple of them. But Tanya moved somehow both intensity and gracefully as she moved out of the way of the blasts that were fired at her. "Tch" Zettour banged the back drum and both of them were in a different room. "Ironic isn't it?" Tanya said, as she immediately recognized the room since she saw it before she was blindfolded, the room she was kept, prisoner. Only now she was by the door, staring him down, with him seemingly forced into a bad situation against the wall. "Maybe, but you have second now because of your little gambit," Zettour said as he could see the white outlined veins now near her forehead, only a few seconds for sure.
Zettour held his hand out and prepared to fire the strongest blight blast he could muster. 'Sure, it will harm her if she gets hit. But it won't matter after I turn her into a demon.' Tanya jumped at Zettour, her own large grin on her face and a beautiful line of hot purple behind her. This would decide the outcome, and Zettour had all the advantages. Zettour fired the blight blast at near point-blank, Tanya. "First form…" she muttered, as the small purple flame became a large one.
The two attacks collided, but Tanya's sword seemingly overpower the blast. With the white veins not right at her forehead, Tanya got one more slash in. and one more was all she need. The purple flames slashed through the blast, through Zettour's arms and hands. As the sword approached his neck and started cutting through it, Zettour stared directly into Tanya's eyes, and he saw her full smirk. Two images appeared in his mind, and he grinned. The sword cut through Zettour's neck and caused an explosion of flames behind him.
Tanya was blown backward, skitting against the floor. She felt blank-minded, 'did I fail?' she wondered to herself, as she closed her eyes. She opened them a couple of seconds later, and she saw her hands no longer had the veins outlined in white. Whether all the blood was gone, she had done it. "Congratulations soldier, you did it. I suppose my plans will be put on hold for now." Zettour said as his body and head disappeared, with the eye that had 'lower two' in it being nothing but dust now.
The slayer, Tanya, rolled her eyes. "I am not a soldier, I am a demon slayer old man. I suppose your glory days were that of a general, so I can't blame you." she was right both in terms of this life, and the last one. "I am not going to bother sending a crow to general Ruderkodia, best he does not know you somehow came back, don't need him grieving a second time." Tanya said as she turned, and held where her rib cage was 'that will hurt in the morning.' Zettour smirked, he might as well while he can "if I came back before, I can come back again." Tanya rolled her eyes and began slowly walking away to leave the room, and the demon to his death.
"So cold, not even responding to me, you are so alike," Zettour said, as he soon could no longer see Tanya with both his eyes gone. "If only I had gotten you sooner, we would have overtaken Kibutsuji and taken over the demons easily, our strategies together would have been unstoppable as they always are."
Tanya was confused by what Zettour was saying but tried to pay it no mind, he was probably saying random things to get her attention before he dies. "But we will meet again…" Zettour spoke solemnly "and when we do, we should plan something, maybe with all your friends. Would that not be great, Ta…" she kept going, she would not look at him, she did not need to see someone else die while speaking, even though getting his blood for Tamayo would probably be a good idea. Just when she was in the door frame, Zettour's words hit her one last time "...nya Degurechaff?"
Tanya's eyes widen, "what?!" she turned around, staring back only to see Zettour's head gone, along with his body. She stood there, shaking in place. 'Did..did I hear him right?' she stared right at where Zettour was, but all that was left was his clothes. She was only snapped out of it when she heard "TANYA KOCHO!"
"Ahh!" Tanya jumped and stared up at Kyujuro. She blushed a little, mainly because she had blanked out due to hearing Zettour say her previous last name. "You okay? You seemed a little out of it," he asked, slightly worried of course. Tanya nodded, "yeah, just tired. After all of that." Kyujuro grinned wider "but you took down that lower moon demon, with an amazing and intense new style!" Tanya nodded, she had no name for it, but it did allow her to overpower Zettour. "yeah, but we should talk about that later. I assume others came with you?"
Kyujuro nodded three times, "YEAH! Kamado, Tsuyuri, Ama-" Tanya tapped on Kyujuro's stomach "I don't need to know everyone, we should find them first." Kyujuro nodded, Tanya walked past him "hold on!" Kyujuro suddenly lifted her in his arms, and once again, Tanya blushed. "W-what are you doing?" Kyujuro smiled more "you said you were tired, right?" he was not wrong, and she was actually tired. 'This gives me Deja vu though' she sighed. "Fine, I suppose I will not stop you from carrying me. But only because I am tired." her blush became pinker. Kyujuro nodded, carrying Tanya downstairs.
