When Floodgates Burst

Omegas were well known for their patient, caring nature. They were sensitive souls— but that’s not to say they were weak. No, omegas were terrifying, especially when their pups were in danger. Shinazugawa’s blade dug through the box, stabbing into the demon, and the high-pitched wail that rang through the garden was unbearable. A pup was crying. Two pups were crying: Tanjiro and whatever was in that box. When a pup cried like this, usually their parents came running, no matter how far away they were. It was a cry for help, only used when in severe distress or danger. And for a second, nothing happened. Then all hell broke loose. Shinazugawa was sent flying, everyone else had fallen over in the process of whoever-it-was that’d rushed over. The box that contained the demon was placed down in front of that Kamado kid. The boy wrapped himself around it, protecting it with his own body as he sobbed. As their daze cleared, they all realized that it had been Tomioka to rush to the kid’s aid, reeking of distressed, enraged omega. But that didn’t make sense. Tomioka was a beta. Right? To say that they were confused was an understatement.
