Unfun Fact: Yuichiro has a somewhat soft spot for Tanjiro, that's going to be shown in future chapters.
𝖭𝗈 𝗈𝗇𝖾'𝗌 𝖯𝗈𝗏:
Muichiro watched Yuichiro tie the rope tightly around tanjiro's wrists that were behind his back.
"Nii-san, don't you think that's a bit too much? I mean he came here without complaints." Muichiro spoke while walking further in the HQ with both Yuichiro and Tanjiro.
"Oh it's fine, I don't really mind!" The boy gave a reassuring smile. Muichiro just sighed. "Alright then."
The rest of walk was silent, until they arrived at an area that people were standing at....who were they...? Muichiro, and Tanjiro looked confused for a moment until they spotted that familiar person.
'Tomioka-san!' Their eyes lit up at the sight of the hashira!
But, while they were smiling, Yuichiro only felt dread...These were the hashira...the hashira that would put Tanjiro, and Nezuko on trial. Probably Muichiro as well...!!
Yuichiro let out a sigh, and just grabbed Tanjiro by the arm. He started to walk towards the hashiras with a stern face. As usual.
Muichiro watched surprised. Tanjiro spoke up, as he was also surprised by Yuichiro's actions. "H-huh? what are you doi-?" He couldn't finish the sentence, as he was soon thrown down onto the ground, and now in front of the hashira.
(Finally, they're at the place where the original meeting took place-)
"The boy that carries a demon in tow, has now arrived." Yuichiro said in an annoyed tone.
Yuichiro Tokito: Haze Pillar
"Ara~! Ara~! I thought you'd never make it Tokito-san!"
Shinobu Kocho: Insect Pillar
"So this is the boy? Man, I thought he'd have a flashier appearance since he's traveling with a demon in all. He's just a normal drab kid."
Tengen Uzui: Sound Pillar
"That wasn't really nice of you to say, Uzui-san." 'After all, I think he's very adorable.'
Mitsuri Kanroji: Love Pillar
"IT DOESN'T MATTER, KANROJI! THIS BOY HAS A COMMITTED A CRIME, AND FOR THAT HIS PUNISHMENT IS DEATH!"
Kyojuro Rengoku: Flame Pillar
"Poor soul...it fills my heart with sorrow... we'll kill him immediately to release the evil in him... maybe it would've been better if he wasn't born at all..."
Gyomei Himejima: Stone Pillar
Muichiro who was listening to all this, his eyes widened. "Why would death be such of a punishment?!" He accidently spoke out loud. All attention turned to him.
"Tokito-kun-?! Wait whaa??!! You have a TWIN?!" Mitsuri said surprised.
"Oh my~ Tokito-san's brother is also here, I didn't even see you there~!" Shinobu laughed lightly.
A new voice decided to join.
"Why is he here? Tokito, don't tell me the reason your brother has also been called here is because he carries demons around as well."
Obanai Iguro: Snake Pillar.
"Of course not. He isn't that brain dead to carry a demon around. Well at least to my knowledge." Yuichiro spoke up in annoyance. Though, Muichiro clearly looked offended by his brother's words.
'Brain dead...So rude...!'
Muichiro looked away, and rolled his eyes.
"Young man, Tokito's brother! This boy has clearly violated the rules of the Corps! Carrying a demon around is strictly forbidden. Death is only fitting!" Kyojuro spoke up loudly as usual.
Muichiro's eyes widened... "Alright, I see, but-"
The Love Hashira, Mitsuri interrupted him. "...I see where you're coming from Rengoku-san...but shouldn't we wait for Oyakata-sama to arrive...this is a matter he should handle." She spoke, slightly blushing from her own comment.
"No need! We can handle this ourselves!" Kyojuro retaliated.
Tengen smirked.
"If so, then I'll show the flashiest blood spray you've ever seen." He slightly grabbed the large swords that were resting on his back.
Tanjiro only watched in surprise on how casually they were talking about killing him, and Nezuko. Muichiro's sight was on Tomioka who was looking away from the scene.
Yuichiro sighed out loud. "That doesn't matter. Oyakata-sama called us all here, even going as far as telling me and Kocho's tsuguko to not kill the duo when we had the chance. Clearly he has a reasonable explanation to that. That means until futher notice, you're authorized to not harm them."
"Hm~? Tokito-san, it's not like you to defend people who break corp rules, let alone a demon. You'd usually be on the same page as Tengen, and Rengoku~." Shinobu spoke, her smile unintentionally showing a hint of dark intentions.
"The orders were to bring them back. Not kill them." Yuichiro spoke up, his eyes narrowed at the insect hashira. He doesn't dislike Kocho, he just finds her particularly annoying at times.
Shinobu laughed lightly.
"Forget that. What are we going to do with, Tomioka?" Obanai said. His snake, Kaburamaru hissed. The attention of the hashiras, including Tanjiro, and Muichiro turned to Obanai.
He pointed towards Giyuu who was standing under the tree he was sitting on.
"He protected them, and still hasn't given an answer on why. What should we do with him. What kind of punishment should he receive." His tone was cold, and it didn't seem like he was asking. It was like he was demanding Giyuu receives a punishment for breaking the rules.
"Iguro-san, don't get so worked up, we'll decide that later. After all, he came here without resistance while knowing what he did was surely wrong~." Shinobu said looking at the two male's direction.
"Tch." Was all she got as a response.
Mitsuri blushed, and looked up at the tree Obanai was on.
'... Iguro-san's always so serious...KYAHH!...'
She gasped, and looked away. "B-but, about the demon! We're waiting for Oyakata-sama, righ-"
She was interrupted.
A new voice joined in.
"Ah. Demon you say...?" They spoke in a sinister tone.
"The thing wouldn't be inside this box I'm holding, now would it."
Sanemi Shinazugawa: Wind Pillar
Sanemi walked over to the other hashiras, but kept a distance while holding up the box the demon was inside.
The female Kakushi from earlier came running behind him. "Shinazugawa-sama! You mustn't touch that-!" She tried to reason with him, but got scared away when he glared at her.
'...A rare case, an idiot slayer who doesn't know the rules.' Sanemi smirked.
Yuichiro's eyes widened. If anything, he knew how bad this could play out. Being trained by the Wind Hashira, of course he'd know how gentle Sanemi is with demons.
The hashiras and two boys watched as Sanemi took out his blade, then proceeded to stab the box Nezuko was inside.
Muichiro's eyes widened. Tanjiro's did the same, but his eyes were more angry.
Yuichiro sighed, 'Why do I get the feeling something is about to happen.'
Sanemi chuckled, and stabbed the box again.
That was enough for Tanjiro to speak up about it.
"Hey! What do you think you're doing!" He yelled at the hashira as he stood up from his crouched position. His arms were still tied, but that didn't matter to him.
(I'm the box that's getting stabbed by sanemi's sword. His other sword.)
"I don't give a damn, if you're a Hashira! Anyone who hurts my family answers to me!" Tanjiro ran towards the Hashira. Sanemi was about to strike Tanjiro with his sword but was thrown off by Giyuu shouting. "Stop this nonsense, the master is arriving!". Sanemi watched as Tanjiro jumped and headbutted him from above. They both fell to ground with a thud as everyone else at the meeting watched, this was quite shocking to them.
Mitsuri even seemed to laugh a little, Tengen and Kyojuro gave her a judging stare.
Yuichiro looked surprised.
Muichiro was equally shocked. He looked worried when he saw Sanemi's nose was bleeding.
'Tanjiro made a hashira bleed? ...was it just luck...maybe? no, that doesn't matter, I barely know him, and he intrigues me to the core...'
(Anyway, timeskip to the trail being over, my motivation is gone.)
Muichiro let out a relieved sigh as he watched Tanjiro be taken away to the butterfly mansion by two Kakushi. Giyuu, Tanjiro, Nezuko, and himself were let off the hook. He was quite happy Tanjiro was alright, though he couldn't say the same from the wind hashira. He seriously reminded Muichiro of Yuichiro. Speaking of Yuichiro.
Muichiro could feel his brother's eyes staring literal holes into him.
No tanmui this chapter sadly😫
