5- Tragedy Arc

When I woke up, I saw 300 messages on my phone from Gojo, Yuji, Megumi, and Nobara. 

I put my phone away, got up, and prepared for the day. 

I went out of my room and FaceTimed Gojo. 

After a few seconds, he answered, sitting in a chair with the three others around him. 

Yuji, with excited eyes, exclaimed, "Sensei!" 

I smiled into the camera and said, "How are you all?"

 They all smiled.

 However, Gojo brought the camera close to his face and said, "Why didn't you respond last night?" 

I looked away, whistled, and pretended not to know what he was talking about. 

He made a annoyed grimace, "Well, someone's being cheeky. But you'll be back soon." 

I stuck my tongue out, saying, "Bring it on." 

Megumi coughed deliberately, and Gojo and I burst out laughing. 

My grandpa came down the hallway, greeted me, and I told them, "I'll call you later."

 Gojo looked puzzled, but before he could ask, I hung up.

 I told him seriously, "It was a mistake to think that you would ever consider others, so don't bother me and just assign me the mission." 

He looked at me grimly and walked away. 

The rest of the day passed as I completed missions and occasionally contacted Gojo.



-Timeskip-

The next two months also passed in a similar manner.

 On a mission to exorcise a first-grade cursed spirit, it repeatedly chanted, "kill, kill, kill, kill."

 I yawned, snapped my fingers, and turned it into an ice block.

 A breaking news message from a building's news screen caught my attention: "Urgent Shibuya attacked, group of people held captive chanting 'Gojo! Come here.'"

 My eyes widened, and my heart raced. 

Forgetting the cursed spirit in front of me, I teleported directly to the Osaka Academy. 

I ran to my grandpa, who looked unfazed, and said, breathless, "You must teleport me to Shibuya immediately." 

He looked at me seriously and said, "N-O."

 I became so furious that I forgot myself, leaned over the desk, grabbed his turtleneck, and pulled him towards me. 

Activating my eyes, I said angrily and quietly, "The only reason I haven't done anything to you so far is because you're my grandpa. So either teleport me there now, or I'll personally take care of you and the rest of my clan." 

His eyes widened, and I saw a flicker of fear. 

He said quietly, "Alright, fine, I'll do it."

 I let go of him and took a step back.

 He stood up, bit his finger, drew a circle with his blood, muttered something, offered me his hand, and I took it. 

In an instant, I was in Shibuya, in the subway station surrounded by monsters and people. 

Shocked, I froze one of the monsters with a kick when it attempted to attack a person.

 Gojo's voice from behind exclaimed in shock, "YN, WHAT ARE YOU DOING HERE?"

 I turned and said, "I teleported here after seeing the breaking news about Shibuya!"

 He rushed over to me, and I saw three opponents against us.

I assumed my fighting stance when I saw Choso shooting his blood manipulation at me. 

Activating an ice wall from the ground, I didn't expect his technique to be so powerful that it would break through my ice wall.

 Just before his blood spear reached me, Gojo teleported in front of me, and his infinity blocked it. 

Gojo grinned widely at me and said, "Our Ice Princess needs to be more careful."

 I grinsend at him and said "be careful or your Ice Princess might kick you in the ass ."

 Leaning against his back, we stood back to back, both assuming combat positions. 

He shouted to me in the midst of the chaos, "Like the old times?"

 I smiled and shouted back, "Just like the old times," and we both attacked the cursed spirits, killing them.

 With my ice, I severed their heads from their bodies as people screamed in fear. 

Hanami attacked me from behind with his plant power, and roots emerged from the ground. 

Gojo turned to me in shock.

 Taking advantage of the situation, Jogo attacked Gojo from the front, but his infinity blocked the attack.

I froze the roots of Hanami from the ground.

 Using my ice like a sorcerer, I twirled it, controlling the ice army. 

Hanami retreated backward, and from behind, Gojo said dangerously, pointing his fingers at Hanami, "How dare you touch her? You'll be the first to die."

 I watched as Gojo approached him, and his infinity pressed Hanami against the wall. 

Shortly after, his infinity crushed him.

 Jogo shouted angrily, "HANAMI !!!"

Shortly after, an entire horde of cursed spirits descended from the ceiling, massacring the people. 

Gojo scoffed and ran towards me.

 Gojo lifted me with one arm and said very seriously, "You stay with me." 

He turned more serious and said „Domain Expansion Infinity void".

 I looked at him in shock. 

The three opponents and the people all froze. 

The sphere lasted for only 0.2 seconds.

With me in his arms, he ran so fast that I felt like I was just a light shopping bag. 

With his other hand, he decapitated the cursed spirits, all within 299 seconds. 

After killing them all, he breathed heavily. I looked at him with concern, "Gojo?"

 He replied, out of breath, "Everything's fine, don't worry," and set me down on the ground. 

A familiar voice from behind said, "Long time no see, friends," and threw something on the ground. 

We both turned around, and at the sight, our breaths caught in our throats so much that we didn't even notice it something falling to the ground. 

Gojo was the most affected; he was frozen.

 It was Geto. 

And then he said, "Cell open." 

Gojo snapped back into action and quickly threw me to the other side. 

The slimy thing enveloped Gojo. 

I screamed, "GOJO!" I wanted to intervene, but Choso attacked me with his blood manipulation.

 Gojo shouted to him, "Everything I see tells me you're Geto, but my soul and my Six Eyes tell me otherwise!"

 I couldn't follow the conversation further because Jogo now attacked from behind.

Gojo looked then at me in concern and shouted " YN!"

 I activated my ice, freezing the entire area, and they became half-frozen ice blocks. 

I quickly ran back to Gojo.

 My heart was pounding with worry. 

But when I arrived, it was already too late; he was sealed. 

I shouted to Geto and ran to him, extending my arm, "GETO, GIVE GOJO BACK."

 Mahito came from the front, yelling, "Here's where the action is!"

 Geto shrugged and said nonchalantly with a devilish smile, "I'm no longer Geto, and now that I've sealed the strongest, I must kill you because the second strongest could also become a problem." 

My eyes widened, and I kicked Mahito away. 

I ran faster towards Geto, but he activated his monsters, and the last thing I saw was his devilish smile and how he held the prison in his hand. 

I screamed, "GOJOOOO." 

He disappeared, and beneath me, a black spot appeared, and I was thrown into another corner of Shibuya. 

Before hitting the ground, I slid to the side, and six powerful monsters came towards me.

 I cursed, "Damn!"

 All attacked me simultaneously, and their speed was abnormally fast, perhaps even faster than the current Sukuna.

 One monster grabbed me by the face and threw me against three buildings. 

I spat out blood and stood upright, wiping the blood away. 

It was time to activate my eyes. 

I activated them, and at the same time, the environment also became colder. 

My speed increased, and I flew into the sky, with one of the monsters following me.

 I changed direction and confronted the monster, giving it a kick with my foot that impaled it with my ice and squashed it against the ground. 

The force was so strong that the ground broke.

 Two others approached me since I saw the attacks 0.2 seconds earlier, it was an advantage for me. 

One monster wanted to punch me from the right; I dodged downwards, and the other monster took me in its fist and squeezed me.

 I gritted my teeth and said, "You think I'm that easy to kill."

 I activated a curse technique and said, "Death Circle."

 The monster's hand fell off, allowing me to free myself, and an ice circle formed around it, and thousands of pieces of sharp ice pierced it. 

It fell to the ground.

 The other monster activated its curse technique. 

The ground turned into mud, but not normal mud, and pulled me strongly downwards.

 Suddenly, I heard such a devilish laughter through Shibuya that I got goosebumps, and the monsters froze. 

From the sky, I saw a huge fireball. 

And whoosh, the surroundings exploded completely. 

I quickly made an ice wall.

Everything exploded, and I shielded myself behind the wall. 

I saw three of the monsters killed by the force of the heat. 

When everything calmed down, my ice collapsed. 

I looked around, and half of Shibuya was gone, with only one monster remaining. 

It seemed to take advantage of the opportunity and attacked me with its spikes, piercing my abdominal area. 

I spat out blood, but before I could retaliate, I saw Yuji behind the monster, his hands in his pockets. 

I was happy because he looked unharmed, and I called out to him, "Yuji—" My smile quickly disappeared. 

Yuji smiled, pointed his finger at the monster, and said, "Dismantle," and the monster was hacked into a thousand pieces in front of me. 

Its blood splattered on me. 

I then whispered, "Sukuna..."

 He grinned at me like a devil.
