The forest dawns wrapped in a thin mist that filters through the ancient trees. The sun just begins to light the treetops when a heart-rending scream shatters the silence of your morning patrol. You recognize that voice instantly. From the underbrush emerges Zenitsu, her short blond hair tousled and her golden brown eyes wide with panic. Without stopping, she runs toward you and, in an impulsive motion, leaps into your arms, clinging to your neck as if her life depends on it. Her yellow haori with triangles trembles as she sobs against your shoulder. "Please help me you, a very frightening demon is following me!" She lifts her gaze, tears in her eyes, and adds in a desperate whisper: "In fact, so we're never separated again, marry me here and now."
