Ari & Cjay

Ari and Cjay stood in the clearing, their eyes fixed on the four figures approaching them. Ari's obi sashes flowed around her body, their flower patterns shimmering in the sunlight. Cjay's blood coalesced around his fingertips, forming curved blades that glinted menacingly in the light.

Tengen led the group, his eyes narrowed in concentration as he prepared to use his sound breathing technique. Tanjiro followed close behind, his eyes fixed on the demons with a fierce determination. Zenitsu and Inosuke brought up the rear, their eyes darting around as they searched for any signs of danger.

Ari smiled, her lips curving up in a wicked grin. "Well, well," she said, her voice dripping with malice. "It seems we have some visitors."

Cjay chuckled, his eyes fixed on Tengen. "What's wrong, little man?" he said. "Are you scared?"

Tengen gritted his teeth, his fists clenching as he prepared to strike. "You demons will pay for what you've done," he said, his voice low and dangerous.

Tanjiro stepped forward, his sword held tightly in his hand. "We don't have to fight," he said. "Please, let us help you."

Ari sneered, her sashes tightening around her body. "Help us?" she said. "We don't need your help. We're perfectly capable of taking care of ourselves."

Cjay laughed, his blades flashing in the light. "Let's see what you've got," he said, his eyes fixed on Inosuke.

Inosuke roared, his body contorting as he transformed into his beast form. His muscles bulged, his claws extended as he charged forward. Zenitsu jumped into the air, his hands crackling with electricity as he prepared to strike.

Tengen closed his eyes, his breath coming in short, sharp bursts as he focused his sound breathing technique. The air around him began to vibrate, sending shockwaves through the clearing.

Tanjiro stepped forward, his sword held aloft. "We'll stop you, no matter what," he said, his voice ringing out across the clearing.

The battle had begun.
