"Gojo saturo is not guiding you properly"

"As expected of him because he also  kept the vessel's life status secret too"

"Are you going against us? The people who made you capable of using your curse technique"

You stood in the center of the semi circle of doors, the light falling over your form. The elders keep on expressing their disappointment. It wasn't a big issue. In your previous mission, you didn't absorbed the curse you exorcised. Your refusal of absorption of curse spirit is an act of rebellion to the higher ups. Perhaps you're being rebellious due to influence of your teacher's words. 

Your eyes staring ahead, not downcasted like usual. Your lips pressed into a thin line and gaze unwavering ,the blank expression maintained on your face. However the rapid beating of your heart and the fear making your stomach churn. It's pretty difficult for you to speak up for yourself especially to higher ups. 

"I already have enough curses in my possession. Nothing would go wrong if I didn't absorb one earlier" You said, your fists behind your back clenching. The red strings getting tighter due to the cursed energy produced from your negative emotions. From past these , the strings were at rest , as if you was a normal sorcerer. 


"Your opinion  doesn't matter. You're supposed to do as said. If you're not under us doesn't mean you'll defy us "


 " We're here to guide you. Your purpose is to exorcise, absorb and manipulate . This world is full of deceit and only strong survives by themselves and their role is to protect the weak and determine their survival. Be thankful we've made you capable of survival. You know nothing about this world [Y/N] Geto" 


                                                                                        ~

The White haired man exhaled after a spar, sitting down ,across you on the tatami sheets. You wipe the sweat off your face. It has been a hectic training session to attempt to manipulate the strongest's curse energy. As expected you failed. You couldn't get to the core of his cursed energy so manipulating is way too far away. 

"You know...this manipulation of both curses and cursed energy is pretty useful. Controlling them according to your wishes" He said chuckling and added " but those red strings are obstacle in the way of your potential" . You tilt your head wondering why he suddenly began speaking about this. 

"Those strings are merely of a puppet being controlled who's fooled into believing her abilities are destructive. Only if you gained control not only over your cursed energy but also  your life, you'll no longer be tied by those strings.You know nothing about this world [Y/N]"

                                                                                      ~

"If an instance like this occurs once again, the deal between us is closed" You tensed up at their warning. They wasn't lying, the venomous tone says it all. You've only continued on this path just to confront your elder brother. When he's caught, he shall not be executed as a price for your duty as a sorcerer. 

However there's a sense of uncertainty building up in you, what're you even gonna do when you meet suguru? Is it worth it? Was all the years you spent working were actually for a right choice? 

You turned your back on them and walked out without a word. 

Due to Itadori Yuji's consumption of Sukuna's fingers , the curses possessing the other fingers and over all curses around has grown stronger. Their menacing presence lurking in the every place possible. The victims increasing. 

You processed what  your classmate told you about the conclusion they made in their previous mission and about Yuji killing two curses. It's certain that Yuji feels guilt for killing them, you can tell it from experience, it was same for you in the beginning. 

 The more threats regarding him, the more chances of Yuji's postponed execution taking place. Your stomach churning with dread. The subtle tightening of your chest. It scares you to the core that they sure have something up their sleeve to get a valid reason for Yuji's execution. However if he lives, you don't want to assume but end up like you. You was far beyond salvation and you are afraid that his smile might be taken away from him too. 


He's the vessel of King of curses..

You're the sister of a curse user..

But before all of it, you two are just kids

Misery weaving it's way into the lives of youth, who thought they're gonna save everyone. Not everyone can be redeemed, including those who wants to save others. Salvation, perhaps was just poorly scribbled in their fates. 

You got up from your bed, making your way outside. You went over to his dorm room which was across you and knocked. "It's open" He spoke from inside, you turn the knob and walked inside. Seeing him try to tend his forehead. He must've got injured during his previous mission. 

"Why you're doing it by yourself? You could've went to infirmary"

"I went but it was locked and Ierie-san is not here in Jujutsu tech"

You reluctantly walked over to his bed, where he was sitting and struggling to clean his wounds. "I...can..? shall..I.. do..it.. for..you?" You said, averting your gaze. A smile broke out in his face, he shifted himself on the bed to make place for you to sit. 

You took the cotton dab with alcohol , rubbing it on his forehead. Your fingers gently pushed his hair back to apply the bandages. While he kept his gaze locked at your face as you tend to him. "It's done" You said , turning your gaze at him. He immediately averted his eyes, feeling warmth creeping up. 


"Drop one bag and you're dead" The brunette threatened the poor pink haired guy, who was carrying all the shopping bags. More to Itadori's suffering, a white top fell from one of the paper bags. Your and fushiguro's face paled. Nobara grabbed Yuji's collar, spinning him. 

The passers-by laughed at the sight of teenagers fighting in a middle of  the street. The ravenette covered his lower half with his collar, due to  embarassment. You sighed at the sight. Fushiguro recived the call from Gojo regarding a secret mission. 

You and Megumi shared a look, telepathy to separate Yuji and Nobara from fighting. You went behind the brunette, meanwhile the ravenette went behind Yuji. Both you and Megumi, pull them away from eachother, by grasping the back of their uniforms. 

"Hold up!" The pink haired boy raised his hands in defense, pulling away from his classmate. He walked over to you and Nobara, making you let go of the brunette. He gestured Nobara to move aside. Yuji now stood in the brunette's place, his back facing you. He handed you back of his collar. 

"Now it's ok. I'm ready to be dragged anywhere even hell , if it's [Y/N]" He said, a cheeky smile making it's way on his face. Nobara chuckled and shook her head, while fushiguro just raised a eyebrow. You tilt your head and as said began dragging him. 

"Wait what [Y/N] where are we going? I didn't thought you'll take my words seriously" 

"No..Gojo-sensei called us"

He seemed to take a breath of relief. Fushiguro informed that it's something secret. Nobara didn't show much interest but, Yuji as usual showed enthusiasm. Four of you began heading towards the destination. 

"I hope we're together" You snapped your head at Yuji , when he uttered those words. You felt heat rising to your cheeks, you blink trying to process. He then added and completed his sentence "in the mission".
