"Talk"

'Thought'
_____________
"U-Ugh…"

In some kind of hospital, specifically in one of the patient's rooms, a certain someone could be seen slowly waking up from the bed, though the sound of her discomfort groans indicates that she was still beyond tired. This was none other than Maki Zenin. Despite her exhaustion and soreness, she still had the strength to sit up from her medical bed.

"W-What happened?..."

Maki rubbed her head, trying to ignore the headache she was having and focused, trying to remember specifically what had just happened. As she attempted to recall what had happened, she noticed the noticeable scars on her hand and arm, both of them in fact.

"Huh?"

Once Maki noticed this, she quickly looked around to see if she could find something reflective. She found a silver tray near her bed, picked it up, and finally had a way to look at her face.

"... What happened?..."

All Maki could say once having a good look at herself was that her once beautiful pale skin was now covered in scars and burnt marks, her once long green hair was gone and replaced with short, dark green hair, and her eyes, which were slightly hazed, resulted in her having slightly blurry vision. She wasn't blind, but it was clear she needed to wear glasses now.

'Damn it, to think I actually need to wear glasses to see at all, and not just curses…'

Maki sighs deeply in annoyance, placing the silver tray down and trying looking for her glasses.

"If you're looking for your glasses, don't bother."

A new voice brought Zenin out of her thoughts, looking and seeing her younger twin sister, Mai, standing at the door entrance of the room.

"They got destroyed when that meteorite hit you."

Mai quickly explains what happened to her glasses, and more importantly, to her older sister. She reached in her pocket and pulled out a new pair of glasses.

"Luckily, I was nice enough to bring you a new pair."

Mai tosses them to Zenin, who she catches and looks at them for a bit, again having a moment to look at her reflection again.

"... I was hit by a meteor?"

Maki, after putting on her glasses, looked at her younger sibling in confusion.

"Or a satellite capsule thing, I don't know really, both Gojo and Utahime are currently looking into it."

Mai just shrugged before tossing a backpack to her older sibling.

"The doctors said you're good to go, so get dressed and let's get out of here already."

Mai closed the door so no one could come in the room. She then sat on the chair and waited for her big sister to get dressed.

"Alright… So you do care for me?"

Though as Maki was getting out of her medical bed, and getting her fresh clothes out of the backpack, she decided to tease and smirk at her young sister.

"W-What?"

Which of course catches Mai off guard.

"Don't pretend you didn't scream out my name in worry."

"S-Shut Up And Go Die In A Hole!"

Maki continues to tease Mai, who just blushes brightly in embarrassment and glares harshly and angrily at her.

"Heh."

Maki chuckled softly as she then finally removed her hospital gown and was about to put on her new sets of clothes.

"Huh, when did you get a new belt?"

But before the older Zenin could get dressed, Mai couldn't help but point out and noticed a strange belt item around her stomach hip area.

"What the?"

Maki also looked down and got confused, now also noticing the mysterious belt she was wearing, she attempted to grab and remove it.

"I-It won't come off?"

Yet no matter how much effort and force Maki used, the belt wouldn't come off.

"Jesus, first you can't use Curse Energy, and now you forget how to get your belt off, how pathetic can you be?

Mai rolled her eyes at seeing her older sibling struggle against removing the belt, deciding to get up and show how it's done.

"Uh…"

Yet when Mai did it, it wasn't any better, as she grabbed and pulled at it, but wouldn't even budge.

"Who's pathetic now?"

Maki couldn't help but mock the younger Zenin for talking big yet couldn't even remove the belt like she claimed.

"GET OFF OF MY STUPID SISTER YOU STUPID THING!"

Mai used all of her strength to try to remove the belt, pulling harder and harder, until she slipped and fell, still attached to her older sister.

"Yeah, I don't think this belt is coming off…"

Maki crossed her arms and poked at her belt, realizing it was becoming very unlikely it would ever come off.

"Ugh… Is it some kind of curse item or something?"

Mai stood back up and glared at the belt, clearly mad at the item for not getting off her twin.

"I honestly don't know?"

Maki hums and thinks about what kind of belt she was wearing.

"Well is it hurting you or something?"

Mai raised an eyebrow as she also tried to figure out what was happening.

"I mean, not really? Besides it being stuck to me, nothing feels different?"

Maki looked at herself and moved around a bit, noting that everything about herself was still the same and relatively unharmed, besides the obvious scars and burn marks.

"Not much we can do then, we'll ask Gojo and Utahime when they come back."

With nothing more they could do, Mai just decided to worry about it later. The older sibling had no reason to argue against it. So, after changing clothes and getting what was needed, both of Zenin left the hospital building and started walking. As they walked together, they began talking to each other.

"Shouldn't we wait for our teachers at the hospital, Mai?"

"They could just call us and ask where we're at, Maki."

"But I just think it would be more logical to wait."

"Well I don't know how long they'll take and I'd rather not just stand around waiting and doing nothing."

"I just think it's-"

"CAN YOU SHUT UP ALREADY!"

Though such conversations didn't last long, the more Maki questioned and pointed out what they were doing, the more annoyed and frustrated Mai became, until she finally snapped.

"I AM SO SICK AND TIRED OF YOU THINKING YOU KNOW WHAT'S BEST FOR US!"

Mai started yelling at the older sister, much to her surprise.

"Hey, Mai, remember our truce-"

"SHUT UP! JUST SHUT UP!"

Maki tried to calm the younger sibling, but Mai wasn't having any of that.

"GAAHHH! WHY DO YOU ALWAYS HAVE TO DO THIS TO ME!?"

As Mai just, well, it seems like she was releasing everything that she was just holding back and in herself, no filter and no intention of stopping.

"FORCING ME TO BECOME A JUJUTSU SORCERER!"

Mai grips her Fists so tightly that her nails dig into her skin, bleeding somewhat.

"FORCING ME TO FIGHT ALL THESE NASTY SPIRITS!"

Mai clenches her jaws that it threatens to break.

"AND NOW I AM FORCED TO BE ON THIS GOD DAMN FUCKING ROADTRIP BECAUSE OF YOU!"

Mai then grabs her head and grips a handful of her hair, wanting to so badly pull it off all of it.

"ALL BECAUSE OF YOU AND WANTING TO SPITE THE ZENIN CLAN JUST BECAUSE THEY TOLD US WE HAD NO TALENT!"

Mai's body was also starting to shake, both from her intense emotions and how she was releasing it all at once.

"You couldn't just suck it up and do chores, instead you just keep dragging me and forcing me to deal with more and more of your mess…"

And soon, once all was said and done, Mai was left panting, trying to catch her breath, as well as coughing a bit from yelling so much. She quickly wiped her eyes, trying to hide the tears that threatened to fall.

"... Do you feel better now?"

Maki just sighs, not wanting to add anything that might make the young Zenin even more upset than she already is, just allowing her to let it out until there is nothing left.

"... Fuck off…"

As Mai had finally calmed down and planned to just keep walking with her older sibling, the sound of an explosion and people screaming could be heard.

"OH WHAT NOW!?"

Both Mai and the older Zenin turned to look at what had just caused such a loud sound of destruction. It was none other than a large, monstrous-looking ghostly demon, referred to as a Cursed Spirit.

"The Cursed Spirit must of sense your intense negativity."

Maki looked down at herself and searched herself, though unfortunately didn't find what she was looking for.

"Where's my weapon?"

Maki looked at her twin with a confused expression, who was in the middle of reloading her revolver.

"They're back at the RV."

Mai sighs, also upset to have forgotten to bring her older sister her weapons, since it just means she had to deal with the Cursed Spirit herself.

"Look, I'll handle this, just stay out of the way, I don't want to be forced to protect you."

So once Mai had finished reloading, she wasted no time charging in to face the Cursed Spirit and hopefully be able to kill it.

"Mai Wait!"

Which Maki tried to stop her, but without really having anything to fight with the Cursed Spirit, there wasn't much she could do at the moment.

"1."

The Cursed Spirit was about to grab and kill some humans, though it was stopped when a bullet pierced the back of its head, causing it to roar out in pain.

"2."

The Cursed Spirit turned around to see who was responsible for attacking it, though it was only met with another bullet, this time aimed at one of its many eyes.

"3."

The Cursed Spirit growls and roars as it sees that Mai is responsible for shooting at it, trying to reach and grab her, who just responded by shooting its hand instead, forcing it to pull back in pain.

"4."

"5."

Mai took the chance of causing the Cursed Spirit such pain and just made it feel even more pain, quickly shooting two more bullets this time and taking out two more of its eyes.

"6."

The Cursed Spirit became increasingly angry and vengeful, grabbing a random car and undoubtedly planning to throw it at Mai. However, she merely smirked, seemingly having a plan. The first step involved her shooting a bullet into the car's gas tank, causing gasoline to spill all over the enemy.

"And 7."

And the next step, Mai had to charge up and create one last bullet with her Curse Energy, which for someone who didn't have much of such power, was very straining and difficult for herself. Once she managed to do what she needed to do, she fired her last bullet, made entirely of her own power, and said bullet shot to the gasoline, igniting it and causing a very large explosion. After doing this, the gunslinger fell on her hands and knees, panting and sweating greatly. No doubt using her ability took a lot out of her, but she couldn't help but chuckle and smirk triumphantly at what she accomplished.

"E-Even if I hate this… I-I'm still amazing at it~..."

Though Mai's victory was very short-lived, as the Cursed Spirit burst out of the flames, roaring loudly as it then charged towards her with so much hate, rage, and killing intent.

"... My life fucking sucks…"

Once the Cursed Spirit got close enough to Mai, it raised its claw and was about to use it to crush her body entirely, which made her flinch and look away. However, instead of expecting a crushing death, she heard a sound and saw a bright flash, catching her attention. She looked to see what had happened.

"M-Maki?..."

Much to Mai's surprise and shock, instead of expecting her older sibling to save her, she was replaced by a large, tiger-like woman, whose scars resembled the stripes of a tiger. The tiger woman used her brute strength to grab and hold back the Cursed Spirit.

"LET ME TELL YOU SOMETHING! MAI ZENIN OF THE ZENIN CLAN!"

And as the tiger lady was holding back the Cursed Spirit, she took the chance to speak, well, more like yell at Zenin.

"I'M SORRY FOR ALL THE TROUBLE I CAUSED YOU BECAUSE OF MY STUBBORNNESS!"

Which at first started off as an apology for all the trouble she caused Zenin, proving that she was Maki.

"BUT AT THE SAME TIME, FUCK YOU FOR BEING SUCH A WHINNING BITCH THAT DOES NOTHING BUT COMPLAIN!"

Before Maki also expressed her own angry thoughts towards her younger sibling, which were short and blunt in comparison to earlier, but were enough of a reason to make her roar loudly like a tiger. She then used one of her clawed fists to punch the face of the Cursed Spirit with enough power and strength to literally knock its head off. Thanks to the sharp claws on her arm, it caused a large gash, resulting in a lot of horrible bleeding, splashing blood all over the tiger girl's body.

"Grrr… Let's just move on already, because I don't want to spend our whole time resenting each other."

Maki turned her head and glared at Zenin, who flinched when seeing such a scary tiger looking at her in that way.

"So Let's Be Sisters Again, Alright!?"

Maki roars out a truce, a real one this time, as despite her angry tone, she meant what she said about wanting to be sisters again.

"... Whatever…"

Mai just pouts and grumbles in response, however, she didn't reject the idea, which was enough for the tiger lady and a good step in the right direction.

"Woah! Is that you Maki?~"

Both Zenin and Gotou were startled when they heard a familiar voice call out to them, both turning and looking to see that it was none other than Satoru Gojo himself, with a very shocked Utahime Iori standing next to him.

"Because if it is, you're looking GRRRRREAT!~"

Though such a moment was absolutely ruined by Gojo's horrible joke, causing everyone to groan, especially Utahime, who acted as if the joke was physically hurting her.

"Oh my God Gojo, why?..."

BTW, how should I name the aliens? Usually I would have a theme, like for Kobeni, it was a horror monster theme, but what about Maki? Should I just keep it simple like maybe "Tiger Spirit" or "Domain Tiger" or should it be something different?

(I'm thinking of Mai Zenin weapons, it will be her revolver thats mixed with Anodite/Magic, so like, whenever she tried to say spell, she would need to shoot her gun, so if she want someone to fly or teleport, she would shoot them lol)
