Your head pounds, you squint your eyes and blink them to clear your vision. The first thing you see is Fushiguro attacking Sukuna but Sukuna's dodging his attacks easily. Your eyes widened in horror when you saw the wound on Yuji's chest. There's no way he would be able to survive after switching back.

You summon a special grade curse . It looked like a dragon with a tail.  You sent the curse towards Sukuna, hoping to catch him off guard. The curse lunged at Sukuna, holding him between it's mouth. But Sukuna broke through it's grip, the curse exploded just like the ten shadows user's snake shikigami.

Fushiguro made his towards you. "Geto leave now. You have passed out for once already. I'll handle it here" You narrowed your eyes at his proposal. "I'm not leaving. There's no way a person alone can take him down." You said , wiping your bloodied forehead. 

"Both of you are such a waste of potential" Sukuna scoffed , reaching both of you. You and fushiguro tried everything together to attack him but he dodges them so effortlessly.  In one blow,  Fushiguro was sent flying away. Sukuna threw a punch at your face , you duck down to avoid the attack. As your head dips , he knees you in your face.

He grabs your hair and yanks your head upwards. His other hand started choking you, slowly lifting you up in the air. Your both hands try to pry off his hands from your throat but he won't budge. "I really want to see what happens when your curse energy is out of control. It would be a great idea to remove those strings" He said with a dark expression on his face ,his hand which was holding your hair lets go. But his other hand was still choking you. Fushiguro grabbed his shoulder and try to pull him back but no avail instead he was attack once again.

In a split second Sukuna cut the red strings from both of your wrists, with his sharp nail and dropped you down. 
You clutched your neck, gasping for air. In a few seconds, you felt your skin burning where your hand was, you immediately retracted to see the curse energy surrounding you. Without your summon, the curses you absorbed so far released themselves. 

The veil wasn't there too , the curses can escape and attack civilians. The lower grades were still, not making any moves. But you saw special grades rushing towards the place where fushiguro and Sukuna are fighting.

Image of corpses crossed your mind. After all curses only  feed on one's negative emotions and kill humanity . You ran in that direction , one of the few curses which is in your control followed you. The other curses which were in your control you made them stop the special grades curses coming this way.

"FUSHIGURO!"

"Fushiguro, Gojo-sensei ,Kugisaki, Geto live a long life will ya?" Itadori switched back already and was coughing blood. Fushiguro stood there seeing his classmate die on his knees. Your heart ached. But this wasn't the time to mourn ,they should be out of here.

You walked towards the ravenette, catching a sight of Itadori's corpse who still had that damn smile of his.
"Fushiguro. You have to leave now . My curses they are...they are. JUST LEAVE PLEASE" You grabbed his shoulder and pushed him. The curse which was in your control ,grab fushiguro with it's one hand ,it's other hand holding onto Itadori's corpse.

Fushiguro was stupefied. He stared at you with wide eyes. "GETO RETURN BACK! THERE'S STILL SOME TIME"
He yelled wiggling in curse's grip. The curse was leaving this place ,taking them away from you. "I'm not dragging you to hell with me. I alone  will deal with the consequences" You said turning your back to face the curses that are part of you.

All the curses were here in front of you, starving for blood. Your cursed energy is enough high to defend yourself against a special grade but they are in a huge quantity. You can't let them escape this place and cause a massacre.

"Emerge from darkness. Blacker than darkness . Purify which is impure"You formed a veil. Now it's only you
And them . There's no way they can break the veil. The curtain lifts up when curses are exorcised. But in this case you don't think it's gonna lift up till someone breaks in.

The curses lunged at you , all of them attacking at once. You have no time to recover. They're not gonna kill you that's for sure because last time this happened they didn't kill you. But the attacks you are enduring are giving you a near death experience.

"Live a long life . Will ya?" His words echoed in your mind.  his cheeky grin, his genuine smile and the smile you saw on his face when he was dying was vivid in your memories. You fall to the ground.  Curses still attacking you. Your uniform was ripped and there wasn't any part of your body aside your face which wasn't bleeding or bruised.

"Why? Why me?" You coughed up blood. Your whole body aches, your vision blurry.  You are feeling light headed. You huddled up ,letting out whimpers  .

You raised your one of your hand up and covered your eyes.  The red bracelet he brought you, it's still there at least. You want to smile that there's something you can hold onto in the memory of deceased unlike your parents who were brutally murdered by your own brother suguru. "Why can't I just be normal? I can't keep  up anymore. I wish I could smile and laugh but with a fate like this, it's impossible" you screamed. No one's here to listen you can scream in agony all you want. Complain all you want. 

Your energy was draining out. This is gonna stop now. Your eyes roll back and you slip into unconsciousness. Unsure that you'll be ever saved or not.
