Michikatsu's smile slowly flatered, "If only we have a little more time, maybe then I'd be able to act like a child. It's been too long. If only I didn't remember so soon."
"What was that?" asked Yoriichi.
"No...it's nothing." Michikatsu flashed Yoriichi a closed eyed smile.
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
When Yoriichi and Michikatsu arrived back at the butterfly estate, they heard Tanjiro's screams as well as another person's.
"What the hell were you thinking looking that sword you bastard! You deserve death you deserve death!"
"I'm sorry I'm sorry I'm truly sorry ahhh!!!" Tanjiro cried climbing a tree.
'What the f*ck am I witnessing.' Michikatsu deadpanned.
"I'll go talk to them." said Yoriichi.
"No don't," Michikatsu put a hand on Yoriichi's shoulder, "Tanjiro can deal with it himself."
"Yoriichi-niissan! Michikatsu-niichan help me please!" shouted Tanjiro.
"Oh hell nah I'm not dealing with that. I didn't see sh!t." Michikatsu proceeded to walk away.
Time breathing; first form: time skip* (shut up CTHEMIST or I'll evil laugh again like last chapter)
Four months had passed, the four slayers killed demons during their training breaks in the day, while Michikatsu wondered around every night, alone.
"Let us go! I....this girl...." a girl shouted as the sound hashira carried her like a sack of potatoes over his shoulder.
"My god just shut up." said Uzui annoyed, carrying two girls from the butterfly estate.
"Let them go!!!"
"Please stop it!!"
"..."
"K-Kanao!" Aoi reached her hand out towards her friend, still on Uzui's shoulder but Kanao was overwhelmed, unable to make a choice herself.
"Kanao! Kanao-sama!" Aoi who was now further away, continued to call out for help.
Kanao ran towards them and grabbed onto Aoi and the little girl that Uzui was holding, stopping said hashira in his tracks.
"Kanao." cried Aoi.
"Kanao-sama."
"Don't just pull on me as you like. You have your orders." said Uzui.
"..." Kanao stayed silent.
"JUST SAY SOMETHING YOU BORING PERSON!" shouted Uzui annoyed.
"ch-charge!" the girls working at the butterfly estate charged at Uzui, attempting to make him drop their friends.
"Hey cut the crap out dammit!"
"What are you doing to the girls! Get your hands off them." shouted Tanjiro who approached them with Yoriichi and Michikatsu.
"It's a kidnapping! Save them!" shouted a little girl.
"You dumb little brat!"
Tanjiro ran at Uzui and tried to headbutt the hashira but Uzui was too fast and dodged it.
"Are you ok?" asked Michikatsu helping a girl up.
"Thank you."
"You fool. I am the former shinobi Uzui Tengen-sama. The man who is known as the most flamboyant around these areas. Did you think a brat like you could headbutt me?" glared Uzui.
"Give Aoi-san and the others back." said Yorrichi.
"Yeah yeah!"
"What're you even planning?!"
"Pervert! Pervert!"
"You damn brats who do you think you're talking to?! I'm a superior, a hashira you jackasses!" yelled Uzui.
"I don't accept you as a hashira! Hmp." exclaimed Tanjiro, pouting.
"Pft-" Michikatsu tried to cover his laugh, while Yoriichi looked at him with a 'really?' face.
"Don't 'hmp' me! What do you mean you don't accept me as a hashira?! That's not for yo to decide you dead brained brat! I need a girl member on a mission so I'm bringing them along! I don't need Kocho's permission if they around successors!" explained Uzui.
"Naho-chan isn't even a slayer! She's not wearing a uniform!" said one of the girls.
"Don't need her then." Uzui tossed her off the roof but luckily Michikatsu caught her.
"What are you doing you inhumane bastard!" shoute Tanjiro.
"Anyways I'm taking her on the mission with me. She may not be useful, but she's still a slayer regardless." said Uzui.
"Even if it's a mission you can't just take a girl without their permission!" said Michikatsu.
"Even if you could bring her with you she most likely wouldn't cooperate." said Yoriichi.
"Tch. Demon slayers are getting weaker and weaker." Uzui sounded annoyed.
"W-we'll go in Aoi-san's stead!" shouted Tanjiro.
'Wtf now?' Michikatsu blinked.
Zenitsu and Inosuke were each on one side of the fence's roof, surrounding Uzui.
"I was on my way back but I still got some strength left!" said Inosuke.
"L-l-l-let go of A-A-Aoi-chan. Even if y-y-you're some kind of m-monster you're not taking a s-single step." stuttered Zenitsu, shaking.
"Alright, then I'll have you guys go with me, but those two with the long hair," Uzui pointed at Yoriichi and Michikatsu, "have to come along. They look the most like girls amongst you guys(he hasn't seen Inosuke's face)."
"Huh? I'm feeling a little tired so you guy go without me...." Michikatsu tried to leave but was stopped by Yoriichi.
'I'm not suffering alone.' glared Yoriichi.
'Well shit...' Michikatsu sweatdropped.
"It doesn't matter, you don't need to much energy on this mission. We're just going to spy on some places. All I need from you is to stay awake and alerted. I'm not asking you to fight the demon yourself if you like your kind that much." explained Uzui.
"I'm not saying that because I side with demons(apart from Nezuko)! Yoriichi and Tanjiro already said that Nezuko and I will help kill demons with our siblings so we will!" said Michikatsu annoyed.
"Uzui-san please don't talk bad about nii-chan. There's still the four of us so he doesn't have to go along if he doesn't want to." said Tanjiro referring to him, Zenitsu, Inosuke, Yoriichi and Nezuko.
"Fine then." said Uzui.
"Where are we going anyways?" asked Tanjiro.
"The place with lots of music and lights. The red light district!" answered Uzui.
Michikatsu's eyes widened. "Meet me at the red light district, I want to have a brotherly talk" - Yuta. 'I need to go there. I need to go to the red light district and see Yuta.' Michikatsu clenched his fists and gritted his teeth.
Yoriichi furrowed his eyebrows at his twin's expression.
"Wait....I changed my mind I'm going too."
'He's hiding something.' thought Yoriichi.
