-AUTHOR's POV-

With Toji now back from the dead basically and free to do what he wants to do. Yuji and Megumi doesn't know about him at all as the two were worried for Ino...

Yuji: So, how is he??

Megumi: Not doing well, but isn't dead.

Yuji: Nrgh! I'm gonna knock them out!

Megumi: Itadori! I understand how you feel, alright? But what's our highest priority right now?

Yuji: ...Rescuing Gojo.

Megumi: Besides, the people on top might of left already anyways. I'll take Ino with me and head outside the veil.

Yuji: *sighs* ...Okay, I can agree with that. You take Ino, I'll head over to the station.

Megumi: Okay good, just be careful.

Yuji: Yea, don't worry. Besides, I have Mechamaru with me. *Although, haven't heard from him in a while.*

Megumi: Okay then, see you later.

Yuji: Yeah.

Meanwhile, in Maki's group, They were told from Akari Nitta about what happen to Ichiji...

Maki: What?! Ichijis been hit?!

Nobara: It sounded like he got attacked while on phone with Nitta. So it probably happen when he left Megumi, he might be in danger now.

Maki: Shit....okay, Nobara, go with Akari to Ichiji. *We can't use our cellphones in here, so we won't get anywhere near the supervisors. And to think that idiot Satoru wouldn't loose, and now the situation is getting more fishier.* I'll take care things here. Besides, that old man is completely useless.

Naobito: Saké!

Maki: Ignore him. Now go.

Akari/Nobara: Right!

Maki Mind: Worst case scenario, once they're outside the veil, they can run.

.
.

Outside of Shibuya, Shoto Bunkamura Street, outside the veil, Nobara and Akari were making a run for to go after Ichiji...but then...

Nobara: Nitta, wait!

Akari: Huh?

Nobara spots someone coming towards their direction, it was Haruta...

Haruta: Oooh it's a woman in a suit! Haha, I'm so happy, I was getting sick of all of them being men.

Nobara: Nitta go hide, I'll finish this quickly.

Akari: But Nobara...

Nobara: *whispers* Don't hide, that's me saying it to make him think. So pretend to hide, and make a run for towards to the Bunkamura mall inside. Besides, from what I hear from this prick, he's the one that attack Ichiji.

Akari: Okay...Kugisaki, don't push yourself too hard.

Haruta: Whispering to each other? No you got me curious!

Haruta tosses his hand sword to Nobara as she deflects it away with her hammer and charges at him and Akari making a run for it...

Haruta: Awww, she's going to hide.

Nobara pulls out her nails and to hit them directly to Haruta as he dived the nails and Nobara taking the chance to hit him with her hammer, but misses...

Haruta: Woah!

Nobara: Heh, you must have guts if you're coming at me unarmed.

Nobara began swinging her hammer to Haruta as Haruta was dodging her hammer and to run away and she goes after him. Also, she spots his hand sword making a run for it too as the handle was nothing but a hand and running away as well...

Nobara: *Most who rely on curse tools are made for long range fighters. So Lee up the attack!* Remind me again who you are!

With Nobara being focus on fighting Haruta, she didn't have attention to his sword the fact it's running away and going after Akari inside the building. As she makes. Run for it still, Haruta's sword goes after her inside and catches her up and to cut both her knees to drop her and Haruta spots her inside the building on the ground...

Haruta: Oh hey! She wasn't hiding after all!

Haruta makes a run for it inside after Akira...

Nobara: No!

Nobara goes after Haruta to stop going after Akira, but Haruta was already fast enough to beat Nobara...

Haruta: He shoots...

Haruta then lands a kick towards Akira's gut from avoiding her to get up....

Haruta: He scores!

Nobara: Motherfucker!!

Nobara rushes to Haruta to hit him with her hammer, but to also see his sword appear from his hand...

Nobara: Shit!

Nobara was lucky to dodge that swing and to back up and to hit four of his nails towards Haruta, but Haruta deflects her nails with his sword and ricocheted up to the roof...

Nobara: Hairpin.

Nobara's nails exploded using Hairpin, as the roof collapsed above Haruta and smoke covering around....

Nobara: Akira-

To think she finished him off, but almost forgot about Haruta's sword, as Haruta's hand sword lands a direct hit towards Nobara's jaw, causing her whole body to be paralyze and drop down on the ground on her knees...

Nobara: N-Ngh...!

Haruta: Man, you really are dangerous aren't you?

Haruta comes out from the smoke and walks up to Nobara...

Haruta: Aww, did it hit your chin? Hey, can't you stand? Helloooo? You there? Heh, gotta say, you got stronger since the last time we met back at your school. I barely didn't recognize you. Buuuut, being strong isn't enough to win, especially when my technique is involved. Although, believe it or not, I don't even understand my technique all that well. Now then...

Haruta grabs his sword, and to aim it towards Akira and Nobara...

Haruta: Which should I kill first?

Nobara: Wh..Whaaa...*Work mouth! Work!* What...are you after...?! *Buy as much time as possible!*

Haruta: Oh? Well, they said something about me wanting to join to seal Satoru Gojo. Which is cool, but most importantly, I just want to bully the weak, like this blonde girl here, I mean it's fun to do so!

Haruta stand Akira straight to her leg behind...

Akira: AAAH!

Nobara: C-Cut it out..!!!

Haruta: Haha! Nah, it's just so fun. I can't help myself.

Nobara manage to move her body, as she reaches for her hammer and to charge at Haruta...

Nobara: Damn you!!

Haruta: Yeah! You're next to die!

.
.
.
Suddenly, they heard loud glass breaking...Haruta and Nobara look over to where the glass broke...and to See Nanami arriving in the scene...Haruta kicks Nobara away as she again drops down to her knees...

Haruta: Hehe, look at this. I get to kill people that aren't in black suits as well.

Nanami hasn't said a word at all, he untied his tie and to wrap it around his hand...

Nobara Mind: Nanami..! He's the one that went to Africa with (YN), and must've came to Shibuya with Megumi.

Nanami tights his tie around his hand, and to walk over to Haruta...

Haruta: Come on now man, look around you. You really want to approach me? I mean can't you see I'm holding a woman hostage here!

Haruta then notices Akira wasn't there anymore and can see she must've drag herself away from the scene...

Haruta: Awww, she ran away from me-

Nanami: How many are there?

Haruta notices Nanami behind him...

Nanami: Allie's, and their locations.

Haruta: Heh, I don't know.

Haruta cuts Nanami straight to his face and to land a kick to his gut....but...that kick felt so strong, it's like if Haruta kicked a hard wall.

Haruta Mind: Huh? A wall? And...I didn't cut him? No scratch on him at all???

Nanami: Number and locations! Your Allie's! Now!

Haruta: Hehehe. I don't know-

Nanami wasted no time and lands a straight jab towards Haruta's face, sending him crashing through glass and shelf's and crashing towards a wall....

Haruta Mind: H-Huh?! Did...Did I died?! N-No, I would've know of my technique...! I...I have to run!

Haruta was trying to get up and make a run for it...but Nanami drops him and to grab him by the hair, and not letting him go...

Nanami: The number of your Allie's, and their locations! Now!

Haruta: I-I told you I don't know-

Nanami again lands a brutal punch towards Haruta's gut with his curse energy, and causing a impact with that punch, causing the lights to go out and Haruta's body to drop down...Haruta grins as his sword was sneaking up behind Nanami for a sneak attack, but Nobara uses her nails and hits Haruta's hammer to get out of Nanmi's way...

Nobara: Nope, not this time buddy, haha.

Haruta: Hey-Ack!!

Nanami grabs Haruta by the neck and picks him up and looking dead into his eyes...

Nanami: I walk pass six assistant supervisor of lines, dead! So, it was you, right?

Haruta then began to cry all of the sudden of how Nanami is scary him, tears running down from his eyes...

Haruta: I-I'm..I'm sorry.?

Nanami let's go of Haruta, charges up his curse energy, clenching his hand...and to throw a powerful punch to Haruta's face again, sending him crashing through several walls through, and crashing outside and knocked out cold. Nobara was even surprise of how strong Nanami was to even send Haruta outside the building...

Nobara Mind: He's on another level! So, this is what it means to be a grade 1 sorcerer. He might be almost at the same level as (YN)!

Nanami: You're Nobara, right?

Nobara: Yea.

Nobara: Good, come on, let's go to Nitta.

.
.
.
A while later, Nanami and Nobara treated Akiras wounds and told them about Ichiji...

Akira: So, Ichiji is okay??

Nanami: I did all I could to save him in the time being. Don't forget, he too trained himself to become a sorcerer. Anyway, it seems none of your group has heard about Gojo's situation.

Akira: We entered the building as soon as we arrived. It's probably why.

Nobara: The fact he's holding out while being sealed too. That's not like him.

Nanami: Anyways, I want you two to wait out till the rescue team shows up. I'll join Maki and Zenin to B5.

Nobara: I'm going too-

Nanami: No you're not.

Nobara: Aww.

Nanami: Besides, Grade 1 is the minimum level required for the fights ahead. You'll only get in the way. So please, wait here. But also, try to contact (YN) if you can, I'm sure he's arriving any minute by now.

Nobara: O-Oh yeah! Sounds good!

Nanami: Good.

As Nanami makes his way over to join Maki and Naobito, Nobara tried calling (YN) now that she's out of the veil barrier...and his phone picks up.

(YN): Hello. Nobara?

Nobara: (YN). Thank god I have signal to call you now. I couldn't before cause we were surrounded by a veil barrier and were cutting our signals out.

(YN): I see. That makes sense why you haven't picked up your phone when I tried calling you. But other than that, I'm glad you're okay.

Nobara: Yea, same. Anyways, where are you?

(YN): ...I'm here.

Nobara: Seriously?! That's great! Where are you so we can meet up?

(YN): Sorry Nobara, but not right now...I'm in a situation. Lots of transfigured curse spirits here, so wherever you are, or whoever you're with, stay there and keep yourself safe. Don't worry, I'll find you.

Nobara: ...You better. Be careful.

(YN): I will. Love you.

Nobara: Love you too.

They both hanged up their phones. And now, we take a look at (YN), as he was now finally here in Shibuya and has made it in time. But as he arrived. He's got himself in deep trouble as the transfigured curse spirits I from the tower before, ambushes (YN).

(YN): Thats a lot of them...which is good. Since Yuta and I split to different areas, I get to have the fun part.

Both his hands were charged up with his curse energy and stood in a fighting pose and too look at all the transfigured curse spirits coming after him...

(YN): This won't take long.
