As time passed, you attempted to rebuild your life. Returning to your sorcerer duties, you were assigned to work closely with Shoko for the next few months. It was a healing process, both physically and emotionally.
Every day, a small glimmer of a smile graced your lips as you witnessed Satoru and Megumi more frequently. Being able to contribute at the school provided a sense of normalcy. It was a gradual journey of recovery, slowly mending the wounds left by the past.
Satoru grinned as he held his phone to his ear. "No coming home until you've recovered the curse object, okay?" he told Megumi, his voice full of amusement. Megumi's response was less than pleased as he quickly hung up.
You watched this exchange and couldn't help but tease. "You sent him to look for a curse object, and it didn't end up being there, so now he's looking for what appears to be a needle in a haystack, am I correct, my love?" you questioned, a playful glint in your eyes as he returned to cuddle with you on the couch.
With a soft chuckle, Satoru gently pulled you into his embrace. "Correct, my darling," he replied, his arms encircling you. He pressed a tender kiss to your forehead before continuing, "But it's all part of the job. Megumi needs to learn the ropes, and sometimes that means a bit of a wild goose chase." He grinned, his eyes filled with love and mischief. "Besides, it gives us some alone time."
You playfully rolled your eyes and then swiftly stole a kiss from his lips, a sweet, affectionate peck that spoke volumes of your feelings for him. You relaxed further into his warm embrace. "He's a bright kid; he'll be fine," you whispered, your voice carrying an undercurrent of love and trust.
As you rested your head against his chest, you could feel the steady rhythm of his heartbeat. The comforting sound, like a lullaby, eased your worries and lulled you toward peaceful sleep. In Satoru's arms, you felt safe and loved, a sense of tranquility washing over you.
Your husband's voice gently pulled you from your slumber, and as you opened your eyes, his beaming smile met you. He was clearly excited to share something. He began explaining why he had woken up so suddenly, and his enthusiasm was unmistakable.
"The higher-ups are being hard asses because a special-grade curse object is missing, and they want me to go look. But, I managed to get us enough time to see the sights while we're there," he happily informed you. Even in the midst of his busy schedule and responsibilities, his affection for you shone through brightly.
You groggily smiled at him, appreciating the love and thoughtfulness that remained unwavering. In this moment, you felt like the luckiest woman in the world to have a husband who cherished and cared for you so deeply.
And that's how you found yourselves at Sugisawa High School.
With a playful grin, Gojo couldn't help but poke fun at Megumi. "Well, well, Megumi, it looks like someone had a rough day, huh?" he quipped as he transported the two of you to the school. His tone was teasing and filled with friendly banter.
The moment you both landed at Sugisawa High School, your concern was solely for Megumi. You rushed to his side, the sight of the wound on his head making your stomach churn as blood trickled down.
You used your healing technique, and in no time, his injuries were mended. While Gojo and Megumi conversed, you couldn't help but notice the presence of the pink-haired boy.
"Uhhh, Gumi, who's this? And did you findβ€”" you began to ask, but the pink-haired boy calmly interrupted.
"I ate it," he said.
The mystery of the missing special grade object and the peculiar pink haired boy had taken an unexpected turn, and you couldn't contain your laughter when your husband confirmed that he had in fact merged with Sukuna.
"So, can you switch?" Satoru inquired with genuine curiosity, his eyes keenly observing the boy through his blindfold. It was a peculiar situation, and you both were eager to hear the answer.
Clearly perplexed by the question, you gently clarified, "Can you switch between Sukuna? He's the cursed object you ate." You took a seat beside Megumi, trying to provide some reassurance.
The pink-haired boy seemed to grasp the concept. "Oh, yeah," he answered.
Satoru's eyes sparkled as he grinned. "Ten seconds. Take control back after ten seconds, got it?"
The kid hesitated, but you were quick to soothe his doubts. "Don't worry about it. He's the strongest there is," you joyfully reassured, blowing a kiss towards your husband. β€œThat's right, darling," he said with confidence as he playfully threw the treats bag toward Megumi, who skillfully caught it.
"Those treats are for your mom and me on the bullet train home," Satoru instructed Megumi just before Sukuna's chilling presence materialized right behind him.
Giggling at the spirited fight, you watched as Satrou skillfully dodged each of Sukuna's attempts. While you indulged in a mochi, you offered one to Megumi, who was fully absorbed in the spectacle.
A soft smile graced your lips as the pink-haired kid regained control over Sukuna. "What a surprise, I guess you really can control it," your husband happily noted as he approached him, effortlessly knocking him out with just two fingers. He then gently slung him over his shoulder.
With a warm and supportive smile, you asked, "So what's the plan, babe?" You stood up, gracefully dusting off your dress, and walked over to your husband's side. With a gentle touch, you healed any injuries the kid had sustained.
As the silence hung in the air, it was Megumi who broke it, his voice tinged with concern. "What's going to happen to him?" he asked, his curiosity mixed with empathy.
"Well, if he wakes up and isn't possessed, he might have a chance at becoming a vessel," Satoru explained, turning toward Megumi. Then, he posed a question, "Question for you, though. What should I do with him?"
You pulled your hair into a loose bun, with a few stray strands framing your face perfectly. You sent a supportive smile to Megumi, not only encouraging him to do the right thing but to follow his heart in this difficult decision.
Finally, he spoke, his voice reflecting his inner struggle, and you remained by his side, a symbol of unwavering support. "Even if he ends up becoming a vessel... Under Jujutsu regulations, he should be executed. But, I don’t want him to die."
"Hmm, is that a personal request?" Satoru's voice held a playful note as a smile began to pull at his lips.
Megumi's eyes were filled with earnest emotion as he responded, "Yes, I’m asking you to do something about it."
A tender warmth enveloped Satoru's features, as he softly cupped his face. "My precious student and son asking for assistance?" he mused, his smile growing. "Of course, I'll do it!" He ruffled Megumi's dark locks, his heart filled with love and pride.
In that poignant moment, your heart swelled with overwhelming pride at your son's actions. His unwavering determination to save a friend spoke to the core of your beliefs about his character and his potential.
Tears of admiration welled up in your eyes, and you couldn't help but be deeply moved by Megumi's display of empathy and kindness. You knew, in the depths of your being, that your son was not just destined for greatness as a sorcerer, but also for greatness as a compassionate and caring human being.
β€”β€”β€”β€”β€”β€”β€”β€”β€”β€”β€”β€”β€”β€”β€”β€”-
Walking hand in hand towards the crematorium, your steps were filled with a sense of both hope and apprehension. "He told us to meet him here?" you questioned, the building before you seeming like a place of important decisions.
Satoru's response carried a bit of optimism. "Yeah, so, do you think he's going to say yes? I'll bet you 700,000Β₯ he does.."
His playful bet lightened the mood, and you couldn't help but smile. "You're no better than Mei-Mei," you playfully chided, while inside, you couldn't deny the concern that Megumi's request held. As you safely crossed the street together, it was clear that the outcome of this meeting would weigh heavily on all of you.
Sitting on a bench outside the crematorium, Yuji Itadori, the boy whose fate had now become intertwined with yours and your husband's, sat between you two. The looming smoke clouds added to the heavy atmosphere, and you knew this wasn't just about a funeral, but the beginning of something much bigger.
Satoru couldn't contain his curiosity and asked the question that was on his mind, "Who died?" With a hint of sorrow in his eyes, Yuji replied, "My grandpa, but he was more like my dad."
The weight of those words settled upon you like a heavy shroud. You knew all too well the depth of that loss, having experienced it yourself when your parents had been taken from you. In that shared moment of sorrow, you couldn't help but empathize with Yuji's pain.
Maternally, your fingers traced soothing patterns on Yuji's back, knowing that words often weren't enough to ease the pain. Your husband, ever sensitive to the emotions of those around him, gently continued the conversation.
"I'm sorry we're bothering you at a time like this," he began, crossing his long legs as he sat beside him. "So, have you made your decision?" Satoru inquired, his voice filled with empathy, understanding the depth of Yuji's sorrow.
Yuji paused, his eyes reflecting a mix of uncertainty and curiosity as he considered the question. "Are there a lot of deaths with curses like this?" he softly inquired.
Satoru leaned forward, his voice steady as he began to explain, "Well, this is a truly unusual circumstance, but if you're talking about potential damage, then yes. To be honest, you're lucky if you can die a normal death after running into a curse. Even if they find you torn up limb from limb, it still might be considered alright."
He let his words linger, allowing Yuji a moment to absorb the weight of what he was saying. "If you're going to start investigating Sukuna's remains, you're going to bear witness to the horrors of the Jujutsu world. Grotesque scenes will become an increasing occurrence... I also can't promise you that you won't become a victim one day," Satoru finished, underlining the grim reality of their work.
You knew that Satoru's words were a necessary warning, a glimpse into the potential dangers that lay ahead. "But," you added, your voice gentle and reassuring, "Satoru and I will be there to help you along the way." Your words were infused with a sense of maternal warmth, letting Yuji know that he wouldn't be alone in this perilous journey.
As Yuji beamed with gratitude and posed his next question, the gleam of determination in his eyes was unmistakable. It was apparent that he was approaching this with a level of maturity and consideration that belied his age. "If Sukuna is eliminated, will there be fewer people killed by curses?" he inquired, his gaze unwavering.
Satoru responded to his question, confirming that eliminating Sukuna would indeed reduce the number of casualties inflicted by curses. Yuji's next query, though, caught you off guard. He asked if you still had the cursed finger, and before anyone could react, Satoru handed it to him.
β€œThis thing so disgusting now that I really look at it”
You were just about to agree with Yuji, finding the finger quite disgusting, when he suddenly took you all by surprise by devouring it in a single, swift motion. Horror etched across your face as you watched this seemingly irrational act. It was a powerful reminder of the dangerous path that Yuji had chosen, one where he would face the grotesque and the unimaginable horrors of the Jujutsu world, all for the sake of saving others.
A chill ran up your spine, and every fiber in your being alerted you to the danger that sat between you and your husband. But as quickly as it came, it left, replaced by something astonishing.
"Gross, it tastes so bad it's making me laugh," Yuji chuckled, his laughter echoing with a unique blend of bravery and innocence. You joined in, your laughter filled with relief. Your husband's blindfold-covered eyes met yours, and in that exchange, you both recognized the extraordinary spirit this boy possessed. There was something undeniably remarkable about him, a rare combination of courage and purity that warmed your hearts.
As Yuji stood in front of you and your husband, the gravity of his decision weighed on the atmosphere. Satoru shifted closer to you, and the two of you occupied the bench, creating a united front. His arm extended around your shoulders in a comforting gesture.
"Well, Yuji, are you genuinely prepared for the road ahead?" Satoru's voice held a blend of curiosity and encouragement.
In a moment of contemplation, Yuji paused, his hands slipping into his pockets. He peered into the unknown, pondering the path he was about to tread. "Not really," he confessed, his voice carrying the raw honesty of someone who felt the weight of destiny on their shoulders. "I don't understand why it had to be me, but I can't simply stand by and let this curse continue."
His resolve strengthened with each word. "I've made up my mind. I'm going to consume the rest of Sukuna. I'm already certain that this is how I'll meet my end."
A soft, understanding smile graced your lips as you regarded Yuji. The unwavering determination in his eyes made Megumi's insistence on saving him all the more evident. In that moment, you silently pledged to make the most out of Yuji's life, adding him to the ever-growing list of children you vowed to protect and support.
Your husband chuckled, a genuine warmth in his voice. "You're already growing on me, kid," he said with an approving grin. He glanced your way, knowing you shared his sentiment. "And I'm pretty sure I can say the same for my wife," he added, his hand extended to help you to your feet. With his assistance, you rose, offering a reassuring smile to Yuji.
"Alright kiddo, grab your belongings and have everything ready by the end of the day," your husband instructed, his fingers entwined with yours.
"Uh, are we going somewhere?" Yuji questioned, curiosity in his eyes. You were about to answer, but your son Megumi had finally arrived.
"To Tokyo," Megumi replied as he walked up to Yuji, the anticipation of the new journey evident in his tone.
"Wow, Fushiguro, you look so much better," Yuji exclaimed as he noticed Megumi behind him. Megumi nodded, saying, "Yeah, our teacher over there patched me up," gesturing towards you.
A warm smile graced your lips as you walked over to the two boys, extending a hand to Yuji. "I help out when I'm not on missions. You can call me [Surname] if it makes things easier," you warmly offered as you shook his hand, welcoming him into your expanding circle of care.
"Wow, there must be a bunch of students if there's two of you," Yuji marveled, clearly impressed. Your laughter bubbled out in response, and Satoru chimed in, "Actually, there are only three students in our first-year class," offering a bit of clarification.
"Only three?" Yuji exclaimed in genuine surprise, his eyes widening. Satoru couldn't help but tease a bit, a mischievous glint in his eyes. "Yep, it's like a personal training session," he remarked, adding to the humor.
β€”β€”β€”β€”β€”β€”β€”β€”β€”β€”β€”β€”β€”β€”β€”-
Yuji's excitement was palpable as he took in the beauty of the prestigious school, the two of you escorting him through the campus. As the three of you passed by the gardens, he suddenly inquired, "Where's Fushiguro?"
"Oh, he's sleeping. If he wants my technique to fully help him, he needs to sleep it off," you explained. You eventually reached an impasse. "Well, I've got to get back to Shoko. I'll see you for lunch, right, baby?" you asked.
"Of course, my darling," Satoru affirmed before swiftly planting a kiss on your lips. Your cheeks flushed red as you turned away and said, "Do your best at your interview, Yuji!" before rushing off towards the medical sector.
β€œInterview?” Yuji began as he glanced over at Satrou,
β€œyeah about that..”
β€”β€”β€”β€”β€”β€”β€”β€”β€”β€”β€”β€”β€”β€”β€”β€”
"Yo, kids!" Satoru's voice boomed, drawing the attention of both Megumi and Yuji. "Hey!" Yuji greeted with a grin as he stood up, his new uniform fitting him nicely.
"You look fresh. I like the hoodie, nice touch," you complimented, nodding approvingly at his attire.
"I didn't add it," Yuji admitted sheepishly, playing with the material."Gojo did that; he's quirky that way," Megumi explained with a small smile as the four of you continued your walk down the vibrant streets of Harajuku.
As the four of you rounded the corner, the sound of a teenage girl loudly talking with a talent agent caught your attention. You couldn't stop laughing, even with Megumi's comment.
"Are we gonna talk to her?" he questioned with a mix of embarrassment and curiosity. "How embarrassing," Yuji added, looking like a true tourist with his New Year's glasses, a crepe in one hand, and popcorn in the other.
"Look who's talking," Megumi playfully chided, as your laughter continued.
"I like her spirit. I think she'd go pretty far in New York," you commented, still amused by the whole situation. Satoru called her over, waving to draw her attention.
"Hey! Over here!" he exclaimed, effectively drawing her towards your bandage-wearing husband.
After a quick exchange of greetings, Nobara couldn't help but comment, "Wow, you're so beautiful," as she approached you. Your curls and golden hoops shined brightly under the sun. She then turned her attention to Satoru and asked, "How the hell did you end up marrying this bandage-wearing weirdo?"
Your laughter filled the air as you found her feisty and straightforward nature quite refreshing. It was clear that she wouldn't let anything stand in her way. Once your laughter subsided, you pulled her into a warm hug, expressing, "I'm thrilled to have a girl in the group, and a straightforward one at that." With a smile, you released her from the embrace.
"Alright, baby, want to tell the kids where we're going today?" you posed, excitement in your voice as the group eagerly turned their attention to Satoru. "We're going on a tour of... TOKYO!" he exclaimed with infectious enthusiasm. The enthusiasm was contagious, and Yuji and Nobara immediately tackled the two of you with hugs, their excitement bubbling over into joyful squeals.
Their once palpable excitement had dissipated by the time the five of you arrived at an abandoned building in Roppongi. The bright enthusiasm from the prospect of a tour had given way to a sense of foreboding as Satoru explained the grim situation.
"You said we were going on a tour," Nobara and Yuji both whined, a mix of disappointment and anxiety coloring their voices. Satoru's face grew serious as he revealed the presence of curses and the strange disappearances in the area. He instructed the two young Jujutsu sorcerers to enter the building and eliminate any curses they found.
Megumi, on the other hand, stood up to join them, but Gojo swiftly intervened, instructing him to stay behind. The sense of unease deepened, and the reality of their duties as sorcerers hung heavily in the air.
Once the two were out of sight, Satoru plopped right down next to Megumi. He flashed a playful grin as he began, "I can feel you staring." He continued, "Your mom and I have noticed something too. Yuji probably isn't completely sane, considering he used to be a regular high schooler who hadn't had any interactions with curses whatsoever."
Satoru shifted his gaze, his expression growing more thoughtful. "And Nobara, well, despite her experience, the curses she's dealt with in the countryside are nothing compared to the ones here in the city." He leaned back, the weight of their duty and the unpredictability of the curses heavy on his mind.
You turned toward your husband, a sweet smile on your lips. "Could you give me two hair ties, baby?" His eyes softened as he reached into his pocket, retrieving two hair ties. It was a habit he had developed once you two started training together on a daily basis, always prepared to help you.
You took one from him, your fingers gently brushing against his, a silent connection that spoke of your shared journey. With his support, you pulled your hair into low space buns, two stray strands framing your face. It was a small gesture, but it held the depth of your bond and your shared experiences.
As Nobara and Yuji emerged from the building with a small boy in tow, your eyes lit up with pride. You couldn't help but shower them with praise for a job well done. Your warm smiles and heartfelt congratulations showed how proud you were of their achievement.
The joy in Nobara and Yuji's eyes was unmistakable as they basked in your praise. Your words of encouragement and pride had a profound impact on them, and their smiles widened in response. Their success and your support had made this experience even more rewarding, creating a sense of camaraderie and fulfillment among the five of you.
Meanwhile, Satoru took on the responsibility of looking after the child they had rescued, showing his caring and responsible side as well. It was a moment of success and compassion that warmed your heart.
As the day's events began to wind down, and the five of you strolled through the city, Satrou's voice held a note of pride. "Alright, kids, good job today," he praised. "Dinner's on me tonight." His hand intertwined with yours, and you chuckled at Yuji and Nobara's immediate excitement as they asked Megumi about the best places to eat in the city, considering his urban upbringing.
Your husband leaned in, his breath brushing your ear as he whispered, "Things are getting exciting, don't you think?" You gazed at the three young sorcerers conversing, witnessing the bonds forming and the adventures awaiting them. Your heart warmed, and you found yourself in agreement with Satrou, embracing the joy and challenges of this new chapter, your son making friends and your family growing closer.
Dinner was a lively affair. The five of you gathered at a cozy izakaya in Tokyo, each of you with your own distinct tastes in food. Yuji and Nobara excitedly ordered a variety of dishes they'd never tried before, while you and Megumi appreciated the familiar flavors of the city you had grown up in. Satoru, as always, had his unique preferences, which never ceased to amuse and entertain everyone.
Amidst shared laughter and stories, you all began to bond. The young sorcerers learned more about their teachers and vice versa. Satoru was an endless source of entertaining anecdotes, and his dynamic personality filled the room with a palpable energy.
As the evening progressed, your heart swelled with a sense of happiness and fulfillment. These moments, where the five of you felt like a true family, were what made the trials of the Jujutsu world worth it.
Your phone rang, and you excused yourself from the table, stepping outside to take the call in private. The voice on the other end was stern and unyielding, sending shivers down your spine.
"[Name], in the next 72 hours, you will be sent on a mission to Mexico. Before you depart, you must become fluent in Spanish," the official stated firmly. The impossible demand seemed to hang in the air like a storm cloud, casting a shadow on the night.
You felt a bead of sweat form on your forehead as your mind raced with the enormity of the task. Fluent in three days? It was an almost insurmountable challenge, and you couldn't help but express your disbelief and frustration.
"Fluent in three days?" you questioned, your voice tinged with disbelief and a hint of frustration. The weight of this demand threatened to crush your spirits, especially given the limited time frame.
"Mrs. Gojo, when you first came to Japan, you were quite adept in learning Japanese before your arrival. We have complete faith you'll be able to do it again," the official responded, their words cold and unforgiving. The urgency in their tone only added to the mounting tension.
As the call ended, you couldn't help but feel the pressure building around you. The demands from the special counsel were relentless, and you couldn't ignore the toll it was taking on your body and mind. The burden of your unique abilities and the constant expectations weighed heavily on your shoulders, and it didn't go unnoticed by Satoru, who observed your struggle with growing concern. The weight of the world rested on your shoulders, and the countdown to your next mission had begun.
While your students and husband tried to hide their disappointment, you couldn't help but feel the weight of the special counsel's constant control over your every movement, dictating your life as a jujutsu sorcerer.
Satoru, ever the master of creating memorable moments, suggested karaoke after dinner as a send-off before you'd have to plunge back into the murky waters of your next mission. The idea was met with enthusiasm from the students, particularly Yuji and Nobara, who were eager to showcase their singing skills. The karaoke room became a brief refuge from the constant control of the counsel, where you could be yourself.
As the karaoke room filled with music, laughter, and the joy of the moment, it was a profound experience. Gojo's choice to play your favorite song, "Baby One More Time" by Britney Spears, wasn't lost on anyone. You had an infectious enthusiasm that made the otherwise stern environment of Jujutsu High feel like home.
Megumi, who had spent most of his formative years under your loving care, shared a knowing look with his mentor, Gojo. He knew the significance of that song. You had a knack for playing it during your daily household routines – cooking, cleaning, or even just goofing around. It was a symbol of your free spirit and your ability to find joy in the ordinary.
Megumi nodded his approval, acknowledging your lively spirit with a hint of pride in his eyes. He watched as you took the microphone, and the room filled with applause and encouragement. This was a rare moment of carefree enjoyment, a glimpse of your vibrant personality that the Special Counsel often suppressed.
After your heartfelt performance, you and Nobara took the stage one more time, further amplifying the joy and camaraderie in the room.
As the final song faded away, Yuji, with his kind heart and curious nature, couldn't help but notice the difference in appearance between you and Megumi. His question was genuine, as he asked Megumi if you were his mother. Megumi, deeply moved by the question and the significance of family, recalled your teachings.
With a gentle smile, he turned to Yuji and shared a profound truth, "Yes, she is." He continued, "Family isn't just about blood; it's about love, care, and the bonds we create." This sentiment resonated with everyone in the room, transcending the confines of blood relations. It was a powerful testament to the love, acceptance, and wisdom that had bound you and Megumi as family. Your students admired you not just as a mentor but as a person whose love had forged an unbreakable and unique bond.
β€”β€”β€”β€”β€”β€”β€”β€”β€”β€”β€”β€”β€”β€”β€”β€”-
In the span of 48 hours, a remarkable transformation occurred as you devoted yourself to mastering the Spanish language. It was an astonishing display of your intelligence and determination. But for Satoru, this incredible feat brought not only amazement but also deep concern.
As he observed your relentless pursuit of fluency, he couldn't shake the unsettling feeling that had settled in his heart. He was well aware of your extraordinary talents, particularly your remarkable Reverse Cursed Technique. You had the power to mend your body and mind, a gift that appeared almost effortless, but like all things there was toll it took on your body.
You were pushing yourself to the limit, the exhaustion etched in the lines on your face and the weariness that clung to your every movement. While your Reverse Cursed Technique could mend your body when needed, he knew that it couldn't erase the effects of the relentless effort you were putting in. You weren't invulnerable, and this rapid learning process was testing your physical and mental limits.
Deep down, he wanted to see you step away from this life, away from the control of the higher-ups. But the harsh reality was that the shackles ran deep, and no amount of healing could mend the unseen wounds you carried. Your battle was not only with curses but also with the forces that sought to dominate your very existence.
A bittersweet smile tugged at the corners of his lips as he noticed your eyelids growing heavy during the drive to the private airfield. It was a stark reminder of how relentless your efforts had been. As he pulled you gently into his arms, it was impossible not to notice the utter exhaustion etched on your face. The lines of weariness were more pronounced, and the weight of your responsibilities had taken its toll.
Although your abilities were undoubtedly remarkable, but they concealed a deeply troubled history.
You weren't born into the world of sorcerers; rather, you were thrust into it by the cruel hand of fate. Your powers were not a gift but a means of survival, a response to Toji's unanticipated, twisted, and merciless attack on your family. From that tragic night, your life spiraled into a relentless chain of dangers, unforeseen horrors, and the heavy burden of protecting those around you. It was a life marked by countless untold horrors, a journey you never asked for but were forced to endure.
Satoru understood that your story, woven with suffering and resilience, had an indelible influence on his perception of the world. He realized that the cruelty of the world extended beyond the boundaries of being just a Jujutsu sorcerer. Sorcerer or not, the world could be an incredibly harsh place, and your experiences had left a lasting mark on his heart.
Yet, the higher-ups held true control not only over you but over him as well, a realization that weighed heavily on his shoulders.
In his heart, he wished, more fervently than he could express, for your freedom from this life. But the intricacies of your situation, the dark forces pulling the strings from the shadows, made it a challenge unlike any other.
The hum of the engine provided a soothing backdrop as the two of you neared the airfield. Satoru couldn't bear to wake you from your much-needed rest. He cherished these moments when he could hold you close and shield you from the unforgiving world you both navigated.
With a soft, affectionate smile, he whispered, "Darling, it's time to wake up." You let out a gentle groan as you reluctantly opened your eyes. The early morning light filtered into the car, making you squint as you slowly stirred, seeking comfort in the warmth of his embrace before facing another challenging mission.
With your groggy yawns and sleepy eyes, you managed to muster enough energy to step out of the car, and Satoru quickly followed suit. He took your hand, his fingers intertwining with yours, as he led you towards the staircase that would take you to the private jet.
As you made your way towards the stairs, his grip on your hand was firm but gentle, a silent reassurance that he would always be there for you. The love he felt for you was evident in his eyes, and even though he didn't say it, the lingering embrace before you stepped onto the plane spoke volumes. He would miss you more than he could express, and he couldn't wait for the moment when you'd be back in his arms.
"Be safe, my love," Satoru whispered, his warm breath caressing your ear before passionately capturing your lips. Despite being married for nearly a decade, your cheeks still grew warm at his unparalleled affection. You held onto him for a lingering moment, savoring the love and connection you shared.
"I will, I love you," you softly stated as you hugged him tight, your heart heavy with the weight of your unspoken worries. "I love you more," he replied with a playful grin, but you could see the deep affection in his eyes, a mixture of love and concern.
Then, you hesitantly continued, "Toru... this feels wrong, it’s just like last time." Your voice carried the weight of your concern, and the heavy sigh that followed revealed your unease, exposing the vulnerabilities that had been haunting your heart.
Satoru's touch was gentle as he cupped your face, his eyes locked onto yours, radiating sincerity. "My love, I promise you, everything will be fine," he reassured you, his voice filled with tenderness. "Today, is the only day I'll be away because of my meeting with the higher-ups, but I have Ijichi working with them. You know how dependable he is."
His words were like a soothing balm, easing your anxiety, and you nodded, feeling the weight of your concerns gradually lifting. "I trust you," you whispered, a small, genuine smile forming on your lips. In Satoru's embrace, you found the strength to face any uncertainty, and a sense of security enveloped you.
With a deep breath, you reluctantly released yourself from Satoru's embrace. "I'll be careful," you promised, your eyes still locked onto his, not wanting to part but knowing your duty called.
Satoru nodded, a mixture of pride and worry in his eyes. "I know you will, my love. You're strong and capable. Just come back to me safely."
Tears welled up in your eyes, but you blinked them back. You leaned in for one last lingering kiss, pouring all your love and longing into that moment. Then, you turned and headed off towards your next mission, carrying Satoru's love and encouragement with you, knowing that he was always by your side in spirit.
Touching down in Oaxaca, you eagerly disembarked the plane, relishing the sensation of solid ground beneath your feet. Stretching, you discreetly employed a minuscule amount of your reverse curse technique, restoring your body to its optimal state.
Awaiting you was an older, single-cab pickup truck, its worn exterior hinting at the challenges it had weathered. Armed with the rough coordinates of one of Sukana’s fingers, you set out on a winding journey through the beautifully lush Sierra JuΓ‘rez forest.
As the dense foliage enveloped the road, a sense of unease crept over you. The mission seemed oddly intricate – the special counsel sending you to confront a cartel attempting to enter the Jujutsu black market with one of Sukana’s fingers. The intricate web of motives and alliances left you pondering the true depths of the occult underworld you navigated.
Exiting the pickup, you found yourself in the very last village on the outskirts, surrounded by the perpetual Sierra JuΓ‘rez forest. The mountain ranges stretched majestically, adorned with a tapestry of lush trees and flourishing forestry. The air carried the distinct fragrance of nature's symphony, a harmonious blend that spoke of centuries-old stories etched into the landscape.
As you strolled through the village, a tangible quiet descended. Each residence responded to your presence with a subtle retreat – blinds closed, windows sealed shut. It was a community guarding its secrets, the stillness revealing a shared apprehension.
However, amidst this guarded atmosphere, a resilient spirit emerged. In the front yard of an elderly woman's home, a subtle defiance of the prevailing silence was evident. Her warm smile and welcoming demeanor cut through the tension. "Come in, Mija," she beckoned, her words laced with a mixture of hospitality and understanding. "You've come a long way." Crossing her threshold, you sensed that her home held not only shelter but also the untold tales of a village intricately connected to the vast expanse of the Sierra JuΓ‘rez forest.
Once inside, the older woman wasted no time cutting right to the chase, her eyes piercing through the air of secrecy that surrounded the village. "Why have you sought out our humble village?" she inquired, her gaze a mix of curiosity and caution.
Seated at her kitchen table, you explained the mission assigned by the special counsel – the cartel's sinister designs on the Jujutsu black market involving one of Sukana’s fingers. Her eyes widened with a mix of disbelief and understanding, as if the ancient spirits dwelling in the forest had whispered secrets that resonated with her.
As you detailed the potential consequences of the cartel's actions, a shared sense of purpose began to unfold. The older woman nodded knowingly, her expression shifting from skepticism to a subtle determination. "We may be a small village, but we have guarded our traditions for generations. I will help you, Mija, for the sake of the forest and the legacy it holds." And with those words, a tentative alliance was forged, linking the fate of the village to the enigmatic tapestry of the Sierra JuΓ‘rez forest.
Although her pure heart couldn’t help but worry for your life.
Mija," she began, her weathered hands gently cradling your left, "do not tread into a world from which you can never escape," she warned, her eyes reflecting both concern and a deep understanding of the shadows that lurked within the mission you had undertaken. She spoke not out of skepticism but as a guardian, trying to impart the weight of the dangers that awaited.
Touched by her genuine care, you couldn't help but feel a swell of gratitude toward this stranger who had opened her home and heart. Her cautionary words lingered in the air, a solemn reminder of the perils you were about to face. Yet, you had long resigned yourself to this life, the sacrifices and risks embedded in your duty.
With a tearful smile, you reassured her, "Don't worry, abuelita. I'll be okay. I have my husband and kids to go home to." Confidently, you wrapped your right hand atop hers, allowing the comforting flow of reverse curse energy to ease the pain in her shaking, arthritic hands.
In that moment, a silent exchange occurred – a connection between generations, bridged by a shared understanding of duty, sacrifice, and the profound strength that family provided. As you prepared to face the shadows that awaited in the world beyond, the echo of the Sierra JuΓ‘rez forest seemed to resonate within the warmth of that kitchen, a sanctuary in the midst of a tangled web of mystique.
Navigating the dense foliage, you stumbled upon an inconspicuous path leading to an unexpected concrete safe house. The verdant surroundings masked its existence like a well-guarded secret. Approaching cautiously, a sense of foreboding intensified, amplified by securely locked windows and doors that seemed to hold secrets within.
The creaking of the entrance echoed through the silent forest as you stepped inside, greeted by a chilling tableau – two lifeless bodies sprawled on the floor, a gruesome aftermath of a recent, violent struggle. The metallic scent of blood hung heavy in the air, weaving a tapestry of dread that clung to the walls.
As you treaded carefully through the building, the oppressive stillness heightened your senses. The safe house unveiled its haunting secrets with each step, the floor bearing the weight of unspeakable horrors. It was then that you stumbled upon a dimly lit room, where an innocuous bouquet of flowers stood as a macabre centerpiece.
A shiver ran down your spine as the sinister curse energy around the flowers manifested, casting an otherworldly glow that painted the room in eerie hues. Fear gripped your body, and your heart raced as you absorbed the malevolence that lingered, an unseen force weaving through the air.
The room seemed to pulsate with a malevolent energy, urging you to uncover the mysteries that lurked within the shadows of the Sierra JuΓ‘rez forest. The thrill of the unknown gripped you, as the line between the natural and supernatural blurred, leaving you standing at the precipice of a chilling revelation.
Cautiously taking the bouquet into your hands, an unexpected surge of energy coursed through you. In that fleeting moment, the flowers became a conduit to visions – a chilling glimpse of the curse you had faced in Minnesota and another, a sinister figure with a head eerily resembling Mount Fuji. The images unfolded like haunting scenes from a dark tapestry, etching themselves into your consciousness.
The weight of realization struck you as the visions played out – the cursed energy, the ruthless brutality, and the theft of Sukuna's finger. Shocked and enraged, you dropped the bouquet as if it burned your very soul. The once-innocent flowers now held a malevolence that transcended the physical, leaving you grappling with the horrors that had unfolded in this seemingly clandestine safe house.
The room echoed with the consequences of a nefarious plan set into motion. The alliance of malevolent forces, each more insidious than the last, had left behind a trail of destruction. As you stood amidst the aftermath, the air seemed to crackle with an impending storm, a convergence of curses and sinister intentions that threatened to unleash chaos upon the Sierra JuΓ‘rez forest.
Determined to unravel the depth of this ominous conspiracy, you steeled yourself for the challenges that lay ahead. The stolen finger of Sukuna had unleashed a chain of events that would test your strength, skill, and resilience against an enigmatic darkness that now enveloped the very heart of the forest.
After burying the two men, a solemn task that weighed heavy on your heart, you rushed back to the village. With practiced precision, you invoked a protective barrier, weaving your Jujutsu skills to shield the community from the impending malevolence that lurked in the shadows.
Swiftly getting into your truck, you drove away from the village, the engine's roar echoing the urgency in your heart.
As you sped through the winding roads, you fumbled with your phone, desperately trying to call Satoru. Each unanswered ring heightened the knot of anxiety tightening in your chest. The Sierra JuΓ‘rez forest blurred by, a green tapestry of urgency and apprehension. The need to warn Satoru, to alert him to the looming threat, fueled your determination.
Finally, a connection established, and Satoru's voice echoed through the phone. However, his usually confident tone sounded slightly broken as he greeted you, sending a chilling shiver down your spine. Your heart plummeted into your stomach, a knot of worry tightening with each strained word he spoke. The weight of concern hung in the air, transforming the urgency of your mission into an unspoken understanding that something was profoundly wrong.
The air in the truck suddenly felt thick, suffocating, as you tenderly questioned, "What's wrong, baby?" A dejected sigh escaped past Satoru's lips, his struggle evident as he tried to find the right words to break the news to you.
Yuji's dead," he confessed, and in that moment, everything seemed to fade away. Numbness gripped you as you pulled over to the side of the road, the weight of the revelation sinking in. "How?" you whispered in utter disbelief, tears welling up in your eyes as reality threatened to crumble around you.
"Sukuna had taken over his body and killed him," Satoru solemnly explained, his voice carrying the weight of a truth too painful to bear. "I know that the higher-ups are behind this. There's no way I would've sent first years on a mission dealing with a special grade."
The revelation sent shockwaves through your soul. Anguish and anger intermingled as you muttered, "They planned this..." Tears streamed down your face, a silent testament to the depth of your grief and the searing pain of loss.
Desperation tinged your voice as you softly questioned, "How's Megumi and Nobara holding up?" The fate of the remaining members of your students now rested heavily on you and Satoru’s shoulders, their well-being becoming a lifeline in the face of this unimaginable tragedy.
β€œThey're handling it as well as they can," Satoru said, his voice carrying the weight of shared sorrow. As he ran his fingers through his white locks, you responded with a muted acknowledgment, "I see," allowing the heavy silence to linger between the lines.
"I didn't find Sukuna's finger," you confessed, the truth hanging in the air like an unspoken failure. Water droplets began to pelt your windshield, mirroring the storm of emotions brewing within.
"It's okay, baby," Satoru began, his attempt at reassurance cut off by your resolute voice. "No... that curse I faced in Minnesota is the one who took it." The words hung in the air, each syllable etched with a sense of responsibility and a haunting realization of the malevolent forces at play.
A shared understanding passed between you, transcending the distance of the phone call. The Sierra JuΓ‘rez forest and its secrets, the stolen finger, and the loss of a dear comrade were now threads in a tapestry of darkness that demanded resolution.
As the rain intensified outside, a storm both literal and metaphorical, you found solace in the connection with Satoru, a lifeline anchoring you in the midst of the tempest that had become your reality.
β€œYou don't think the special counsel is behind this, do you?" you softly questioned, the weight of suspicion casting a somber tone over your words. As raindrops continued their rhythmic dance on the roof of your truck, you rested your head against the steering wheel, feeling the cold metal against your skin.
Satoru's exhale resonated through the phone, a heavy acknowledgment of the gravity of your inquiry. "I can't be certain, but it wouldn't surprise me," he admitted, his voice a low murmur, mirroring the unsettled atmosphere that surrounded both of you.
The rain outside seemed to intensify, a reflection of the storm within. Satoru's words lingered, leaving you with a chilling realization that the intricate web of deceit extended even to those who were meant to uphold justice. As you sat in the dimly lit car, the Sierra JuΓ‘rez forest whispered secrets, and the shadows deepened, obscuring the path forward into a darkness that held the keys to unraveling the mysteries that now gripped your world.
β€”β€”β€”β€”β€”β€”β€”β€”β€”β€”β€”β€”β€”β€”β€”β€”-
A weary and trusted sigh escaped Satoru's lips once he hung up the phone, the heaviness of the situation etched into the lines of his face. Glancing at Ijichi before beginning, he confessed, "You know... I have a real lousy personality, and despite that, [Name] still decided to marry me." He leaned back, crossing his arms and legs, a vulnerability coloring his words that belied the bravado.
"I still donοΏ½οΏ½οΏ½t understand why she chose you of all people," Ijichi muttered, his words carrying a tinge of genuine curiosity. Satoru, however, met the comment with a quick retort, injecting a hint of playful defensiveness into the conversation. "You're in for a serious slap to the face later, Ijichi," he quipped, a glint of humor surfacing as they navigated the complexities of personal dynamics amidst the weight of the unfolding events.
"I have a dream," Satoru began, his voice carrying not just frustration but a profound sense of determination and pain. "What happened with Yuji, and what they've been putting [Name] through since she got here, the higher-ups are nothing but scum. Stubborn, selfish, bloodline-proud idiots who refuse to change with the times." His words held the weight of experiences witnessed and scars endured, each syllable etched with the searing injustice he sought to challenge.
Pausing, he could feel his blood begin to boil, a mixture of anger and sorrow swirling within. "I want to reset the Jujutsu world," he declared, the dream in his heart eclipsed by the harsh reality he faced. The echoes of Yuji's fate and [Name]'s struggles hung heavy in the air, the dream not just a vision of change but a desperate plea for a world where justice and compassion triumph over the entrenched flaws of the current system.
"It'd be easy for me to just kill all of them, but new people would just take their place, and nothing would change. People also don’t take too kindly to massacres, and I know [Name] wouldn’t approve of it either, so… that’s why I'm here teaching," Satoru confessed, his voice carrying the weight of a profound struggle against the injustices he faced. He rested his elbows on his thighs, exhaustion etched into the lines of his face.
"If I’m going to have strong, intelligent, and honest allies, who better to foster them than [Name] and I," he mused, the words holding a poignant truth that transcended the turmoil of the present. The depth of his commitment to shaping a better world resonated through the quiet sincerity of his tone.
As he reflected on this purpose, a memory transported him back to a night that felt like a distant echo in time. Two years had passed since the arrival of Tsumiki and Megumi. On this particular night, Satoru, burdened by the weight of numerous missions, trudged through the front door, completely burnt out.
Lying his head against the couch's armrest, you softly spoke, "I know." The tenderness in your voice and actions spoke volumes as you slid off the bandages that covered his brilliant blue eyes. "But they're the next generation; they will stand on our shoulders and create a better world, jujutsu or not. Our hard work, love, nurture, and dedication to them will be worth it. Just watch."
With those words, a profound sense of hope and purpose infused the air. The intimate moment became more than a declaration; it became a shared commitment to forge a legacy that transcended the struggles of the present, anchoring both of you in the unwavering belief that your sacrifices and love would pave the way for a brighter future.
β€œIn the end, I'll be able to hand off some of my missions to them, and with enough of us, I'll make sure that [Name] never steps foot in the field again," Satoru states, his voice carrying a mix of determination and a profound sense of protective commitment that extends beyond the realm of sorcery.
"I thought she loved being a sorcerer?" Ijichi questions, his curiosity met with a reflective gaze from Satoru. "She does, but she's witnessed enoughβ€”" Satoru stops mid-sentence, the weight of unspoken memories and the toll of the battles etched in the lines of his face. The depth of his concern for [Name] becomes palpable in that moment.
As Yuji sudden sits up, his once-bleeding wound now completely healed, Satoru's eyes widen with a mix of relief and genuine joy. The weight of the moment is palpable, and Gojo's typically composed demeanor gives way to an unguarded expression, revealing the depth of his care for the young sorcerer.
Satoru walks over and extends a hand towards Yuji, his brilliant blue eyes reflecting a mixture of emotions β€” relief, pride, and a shared triumph over the shadows that threatened to claim another life. In that moment, the mentor-student relationship transforms into a bond that transcends the supernatural battles they face.
"Welcome back, Yuji," Satoru says, his voice holding a warmth that defies the dangers they navigate. There's an unspoken understanding in the grip of the handshake, a silent acknowledgment of the challenges faced and the strength it took to rise again. It's a welcome back not just to the world of the living but to a community forged in the crucible of shared struggles, where each victory, no matter how small, resonates with the echoes of resilience and camaraderie.
As Satoru strolled down the hallways with Shoko, a palpable sense of urgency colored the conversation. Abruptly, he turned to her, his request infused with both concern and a determined resolve. "Could you leave Yuji as deceased in your report for the higher-ups? I need to train him so he can at least defend himself before he's targeted again."
Shoko, ever pragmatic, sighed as she pulled out a cigarette. The tendrils of smoke curled around her like a contemplative shroud as she considered the weight of the decision. "Fine, but the kid will probably have to go into hiding forever," she conceded, her voice carrying the burden of the choices they were making.
"Have you told [Name] what happened?" she questioned, the exhale of her cigarette punctuating the gravity of the situation.
"Yes and no. She doesn't know that he's alive, so I'll keep it a secret until she gets home and helps him with training," Satoru casually explained, his words revealing a strategic foresight tempered with an underlying concern for [Name]'s emotional well-being.
Shoko, her gaze penetrating through the wisps of smoke, continued to express her reservations. "Your wife thinks one of her students is dead, and you think that's a good surprise?" Her sigh echoed with a mixture of exasperation and concern, emphasizing the emotional toll of the decisions being made.
"I know it's not ideal, but keeping [Name] in the dark for a little while is necessary. It's for her safety and Yuji's," Satoru responded, a flicker of conflict in his eyes. The weight of leadership and the burdensome nature of safeguarding those they cared for hung in the air.
Shoko extinguished her cigarette, her gaze steady on Satoru. "Just be careful, Satrou. Secrets have a way of unraveling, and [Name] won't take kindly to being kept in the dark about something like this." Her words carried a weight of wisdom born from experience, underlining the potential consequences of their chosen path.
As they continued down the hallway, the echoes of their conversation lingered, mingling with the shadows that clung to the corridors. The delicate dance of secrecy and protection unfolded, leaving both Shoko and Satoru to navigate the intricate web of relationships and responsibilities that defined their world.
β€”β€”β€”β€”β€”β€”β€”β€”β€”β€”β€”β€”β€”β€”β€”β€”-
Restlessness gripped you as you anxiously bounced your leg upon landing back in Japan. The fatigue of nearly twenty-four hours spent in transit hung on your shoulders, but the weight of the unresolved issues and the looming influence of the higher-ups eclipsed any possibility of finding solace in sleep. Satrou had provided the location of a Gojo family safe house, a temporary respite in the ever-expanding storm.
As you watched the world rush by outside the window, the question lingered, refusing to be ignored: "What now?" The higher-ups' control over your life, intertwined with their tightening grip on the Jujutsu world, painted an uncertain tableau for the road ahead. The complexities and challenges that unfolded demanded a resilience beyond the physical fatigue you felt, delving into the emotional and intellectual realms.
As you arrived and opened the door, the scene unfolding before you felt like a dream, almost too good to be true. "Welcome back, teacher!" Yuji beamed with an innocence that mirrored the qualities you cherished in Haibara and your little brother. The echoes of their essence danced in his gesturesβ€”maturity, kindness, and an unwavering determination.
Tears of joy welled up in your eyes as you walked over, and with a mix of motherly affection and sheer relief, you enveloped Yuji in a warm hug. "I'm glad you're okay, kiddo," you tearfully stated, the weight of worry and uncertainty lifting in that moment.
As you tenderly wiped away the traces of your emotional reunion, the atmosphere shifted when you spotted your husband cheekily doing jazz hands from behind Yuji. Reacting swiftly, a mix of surprise and mild irritation fueled your instinct to elbow Satrou squarely in the side of his ribs.
"What the hell is wrong with you? You couldn't tell me he was okay?" you fumed, standing over his crumpled form, a cocktail of concern and playful reproach etched on your face.
"Sorry, my darling. Won't happen again," he mumbled, the mischievous glint in his eyes giving way to genuine contrition in his voice. Satrou's intentional decision to turn off his infinity, allowing the blow to land, revealed that although his actions were driven by a protective instinct, the trust between the two of you held a paramount importance.
The room, for a fleeting moment, delicately balanced between the joyous reunion and the light tension of this unexpected, playful exchange, revealing the intricate dance of understanding and humor that defined your marriage.
As Yuji observed you scolding your husband, two realizations dawned on him. Firstly, the profound strength that both you and Satoru embodied struck him, and a deep sense of gratitude welled up within him for the opportunity to learn from such formidable mentors. Secondly, a valuable lesson etched itself into his awarenessβ€”to never find himself on your bad side, an insight he vowed to carry with him as he navigated the intricate world of sorcery and life.
As Satrou regained his composure, he was quick to articulate the purpose behind bringing both of you to this particular place. "My lovely wife will be assisting you in mastering the control of your curse energy," he happily declared, a sense of pride underlying his words.
Yuji's face lit up with excitement as you readjusted your bun, a silent cue for him to join Satrou and you at the table. Eagerly, he followed, curious about the impending demonstration of curse energy versus curse technique.
"Alright, Yuji," you began, your voice a gentle blend of encouragement and guidance. "Controlling your curse energy is not just about raw power; it's an art that requires finesse and precision." Your hands gracefully gestured towards a carefully arranged set of objects on the table, each item poised for the unfolding lesson.
As Gojo demonstrated the intricate dance of curse technique versus the sheer force of curse energy, a spark of amazement flickered across Yuji's face. The room held a hushed anticipation, a collective breath drawn in as the supernatural forces were revealed.
"So you guys are gonna teach me how to use a super cool curse technique?" Yuji beamed, his enthusiasm tangible. However, the brightness in his expression dimmed as Satrou gently corrected him, "Curse technique is an innate ability," a thoughtful pause accompanying his glance towards you. "Though there are special circumstances, like my wife."
Yuji's face portrayed a mix of curiosity and confusion, prompting Satrou to delve deeper into the lesson. "You're already crazy strong," he addressed Yuji directly, a hint of admiration in his voice. "So, she's going to help you control it, allowing you to channel that strength into your close combat abilities."
Grasping the bear-like doll, adorned with boxing gloves on each hand, from its position leaning against the side of the couch, you hugged it to your chest. The soft material yielded under your touch, triggering a wave of nostalgic warmth evident in your expression. "I haven't seen this one in a long time," you giggled, savoring the familiarity of the plush companion. The doll continued to peacefully sleep in your arms as you settled on one end of the couch, creating a cocoon of memories around yourself, eagerly awaiting Satrou and Yuji.
"Alright, pick out a movie," Satrou suggested to Yuji as the two of them approached the couch. Confusion and a tinge of disappointment colored Yuji's voice as he responded, "Huh? Movie? I thought we were training."
"We are. Come and have a seat on the other end, and Satrou will explain the rest," you happily instructed, passing the bear-like doll over to Satrou with a gentle exchange. The plush companion seamlessly transformed into a symbolic prop, marking the commencement of the upcoming training session. Satrou, now holding the doll, embarked on an explanation for Yuji, the transition of the plush companion from your arms to his creating a tangible link in the lesson about to unfold.
"Now, Yuji, you're going to focus your curse energy into this doll while the two of you watch movies. Curse energy can also spike due to one's emotions," Satrou explained, his voice a steady guide in the magical tutorial. With a deliberate motion, he handed the doll off to Yuji, who received it with a mix of curiosity and determination.
Yuji's gaze shifted between Satrou and the bear-like doll in his hands, prompting him to ask, "So, I'm putting my curse energy into this thing while watching movies? How's that gonna help me?"
Satrou chuckled, recognizing the skepticism in Yuji's expression. "It's about control, Yuji. Sorcery isn't just about raw power. By channeling your curse energy into the doll, you'll learn to regulate and focus it. Think of it like refining a skill while enjoying a good movieβ€”killing two birds with one stone."
As Yuji nodded in understanding, he took hold of the bear-like doll. In a surprising twist, the plush companion suddenly jerked and delivered a full-force punch to Yuji. The room echoed with a combination of startled gasps and laughter as Yuji grappled with the unexpected impact, the bear-like doll now proving to be an animated partner in this magical lesson. Satrou's eyes twinkled with amusement as he added, "And that, Yuji, is the importance of focus and control." The training had begun, infused with the unexpected charm of a sorcerer's unconventional teaching methods.
Over the course of a couple of hours, surrounded by the glow of the screen and the aroma of snacks, you had the chance to get to know Yuji a little better. As the night unfolded, you couldn't help but be amazed by his ability to learn and adapt so quickly.
"Hey, teacher," he suddenly began, setting his soda down. The movie you had been watching faded into background noise, creating a comfortable atmosphere for conversation. "How were you able to develop a curse technique without having any innate ability?" he innocently questioned.
The weight of your past settled in the room as you confessed, "My parents and I were attacked at home one night. They died from their injuries, but in a desperate attempt at survival, my body manifested my reverse curse technique, and I was able to live." In the blink of an eye, Yuji lost control, the doll swiftly delivering an uppercut as a laugh escaped past your lips.
The tension in the room dissolved with your laughter, lightening the mood. Yuji returned to the couch, and you softly placed your hand atop his head, activating your technique. The healing energy flowed, mending the bruise that had already begun to form. As the warmth of your touch enveloped him, a shared understanding lingered in the airβ€”a connection forged through the tales of survival and the gentle touch of sorcery.
"I went through the foster care system for a while in the United States, and things weren't always the best. But it led me to being adopted by Yaga," you tenderly shared, the memories of your past etched in the undertones of your voice. With care, your hand, which had been healing the bruise on Yuji's cheek, gently withdrew.
"Huh? The principal was the one who adopted you?" Yuji's eyes widened with curiosity, prompting a soft smile from you as you nodded in agreement. "Yeah, and because of him, I was able to meet Satrou. He always looked out for me since the minute I got here. If it weren't for him, I wouldn't be as strong as I am now," you softly confessed, a testament to the profound impact these figures had on shaping your life. Your love and admiration for your husband lingered in the air, a quiet melody beneath your words.
"Be patient, Yuji," you began, turning towards him, your eyes reflecting a mixture of understanding and encouragement. "I know that you'll be strong like Satrou too one day," you reassured him, the weight of your experiences adding depth to your words.
Surprisingly enough, the door swung open, and Satoru returned, his eyes alight with excitement. "Why watch from the sidelines when we can learn up close?" he declared, his grip on Yuji reflecting the infectious energy that radiated from him. The scene echoed the echoes of your first mission togetherβ€”the rush of anticipation and the thrill of learning in the field.
Wishing them luck, you couldn't help but smile as Satoru swiftly kissed you, his touch a reassuring blend of familiarity. "Go home and rest," he advised, his voice carrying a mix of affection and concern. "Before the higher-ups decide to send you back."
Your eyes met his, and a soft chuckle escaped him. "I'll make sure this one doesn't get too carried away," he added, a playful glint in his eye. Yuji grinned in agreement, ready for the adventure ahead.
As they ventured into the night, the door closed behind them, leaving you with a mix of emotions. The quiet promise of their return lingered in the air, accompanied by the echoes of shared memories and the unspoken understanding that every mission brought its own unique challenges and lessons
β€”β€”β€”β€”β€”β€”β€”β€”β€”β€”β€”β€”β€”β€”β€”β€”
You luxuriated in the soothing embrace of a familiar shower, the warm water a comforting cascade in the sanctuary of your own home. Having relished the flavors of the takeout acquired on your way back, the essence of Satoru's natural scent lingered in the fabric of the bedding, creating a cocoon of familiarity as you sank into the plush mattress. Finally home, a subtle yearning lingeredβ€”one that only your husband could fulfill.
As you nestled into the soft comfort of the bed, the day's exhaustion momentarily forgotten, your senses heightened at the familiar creak of the front door opening. The subtle symphony of daily life hushed as Satoru stepped through the bedroom door, a palpable shift in the atmosphere. The room seemed to exhale, your weariness dissipating in the presence of the person who transformed any space into a haven.
"Why aren't you sleeping?" Satoru softly inquired, his eyes filled with genuine concern, his lips brushing against your forehead in a tender kiss.
"You know I can't sleep without you," you responded with a sleepy coo, a faint smile playing on your lips. The room held a quiet intimacy, punctuated by the reassuring melody of his chuckle.
Satoru's brows furrowed with genuine concern as he observed your weary countenance. "You look exhausted," he remarked, his voice laced with worry, his six eyes reflecting the weight of his unease.
In response, you offered a tired smile and a dismissive wave, attempting to downplay the evident fatigue. "Just need a good night's rest before the New York mission in two days," you reassured him, unveiling your plans for a two-month break with a conviction that you could endure a bit more.
Satoru, however, couldn't shake off his worry. "You shouldn't have to bear such burdens," he argued passionately, his role as the head of the Gojo clan giving weight to his words. Yet, in a gesture that spoke volumes, you gently seized his hand, the warmth of your touch carrying a reassurance that transcended titles.
"Titles don't mean much to them," you sleepily conveyed, acknowledging the challenges your foreign status presented in the jujutsu world. Despite this recognition, your assurance cut through the fatigue, affirming that the love you shared surpassed any and all hardships.
As sleep beckoned you, Satoru watched your peaceful form, his six eyes picking up on the subtle signs of strain. "If the special counsel keeps pushing you like this," he confessed, his voice filled with a quiet resolve, "you might crumble through my fingers."
The room held the weight of shared concern and an unspoken promiseβ€”a promise to weather the storm together, regardless of the challenges ahead.

Word count: 1,400
As Gojo held your body tightly to himself, his tears of despair soaked the crown of your head. He was bent over in grief, his hands clutching at your upper body as your back rested against his chest. He had dreamed for so long of holding you between his arms, breaking through the walls of your Infinity, which for you was more of a curse than a blessing. But not like thisβ€”never like this, with the fight leaving your body as you slowly succumbed to the wounds provoked by a Special Grade Cursed Tool.
β€œBaby,” he croaked, squeezing his eyes shut as more tears fell over your hair, β€œOkkotsu Yuta is going to be here soon, okay?”
A faint smile appeared on your lips as tiredness weighed your frame, now barely feeling the pain of your injuries as you focused on the warmth of his embrace. β€œSatoru…” you whimpered as your breathing was growing shallow and your head hazy, β€œmy Infinity can be breached only when I’m dying. You know that.”
He immediately shook his head at your words. β€œDon’t—” he choked out as his body trembled, inwardly berating himself for not being able to use the Reverse Cursed Technique, β€œjust don’t. You know that Yuta is gonna save you.”
You weakly squeezed his hands as his fingers intertwined with yours. β€œAt least I can finally feel you, Satoru.”
He gently pressed a kiss on the top of your head. β€œAnd you will feel me again,” he said firmly, trying to keep his voice from cracking, β€œonce you’re healed, I’m going to find a way for you to control Infinity like my family and I do.”
You slowly close your eyes, allowing yourself to imagine the blissful possibility for a few moments. Then, you took a shaky breath as you tried to push down what you knew would remain just a dream you could never realize in this life. Still, you wanted to indulge him.
β€œThat sounds amazing, Satoru,” you whispered as his lips found your temple, planting a kiss on it, β€œI’m sure that if there’s one person who can find a solution to my everlasting Infinity, it is you.”
A shaky smile appeared on his lips at your words. β€œThat’s right, baby,” he said, swallowing hard, β€œanything for you.”
Despite the exhaustion of your body and the sorrow in your mind, you smiled to yourself. You had spent a long time thinking that the affection you felt towards Gojo was unrequited, but then he had confessed his feelings to you just a few days before the mission that doomed your fate. What terrible timing, and yet, subdued bubbles of joy made your now feeble heart flutter as you thought about it.
β€œI love you,” Gojo said while your vision was blurred with bittersweet tears and a small gasp left your lips, β€œI love you and I’ll keep loving you.”
You slightly tilted your head, placing your ear over his pounding heart. β€œI love you too, Satoru,” you breathed, β€œI always did.”
Gojo grasped your chin, tilting it up. His turquoise eyes were bloodshot, and his hair disheveled as tears doused his cheeks. He leaned forward and kissed you, pouring fondness and despair into it as your lips parted and you slowly reciprocated, locking your lips with him.
His eyes welled up with tears once again as your breathing slowed down, and he cupped your cheeks, whimpering into your mouth as you went unresponsive and your kisses stopped. Anguish chewed at his gut while a dull ache filled his heart, and he clung to your body as he wailed, placing his dampened cheek against your cold one.
A hot rage swelled within himself as he thought about who dared lay a hand on you, and he was able to do something he had never done beforeβ€”unleashing the most destructive of his Extension Techniques, the Hollow Purple, without even moving a finger.Β 
Purple waves of cosmic power were released outside the warehouse you were in, destroying anything in their path, both devilish curses and innocent bystanders.
Unbeknownst to his Six Eyes, there was someone who had witnessed everything but had chosen not to intervene.
Not yet.
And as Gojo’s destructive force of grief and wrath was devastating the land around your location, the shadow of a Cursed Spirit began to walk among the ruins with the intent of revealing himself to the anguished white-haired sorcerer.
Consumed by the overwhelming emotions, Satoru initially didn’t notice a silhouette coming towards him as he held your body between his arms.
β€œHuman emotions are genuinely horrifying, aren’t they?”
Gojo anchored his tearful, enraged gaze on the source of the voice, and his eyes narrowed. β€œSukuna!” he growled, activating his Infinity to shield the both of you, β€œdon’t take another step.”
The King of Curses tilted his head, his inquisitive stare studying your inanimate frame. οΏ½οΏ½οΏ½Her soul is not gone yet,” he told the white-haired sorcerer, β€œshe’s still with you, floating between life and death.”
Gojo ground his teeth. β€œDon’t you dare speak about her!” he hissed, β€œand give the control of that body back to Yuji.”
Sukuna clicked his tongue. β€œOr what?” he challenged, β€œwill you blast me away like you did with this town, or...” he leaned forward as Satoru tensed, pulling your body even closer to his chest, β€œ...will you listen to me and let me do something to bring her back to you?”
Gojo scowled, clenching his fists. β€œDon’t you fucking dare!” he snarled.
Sukuna let out an exasperated sigh. β€œUsually, I would try and annihilate you without a second thought...but today I’m here to help you.”
Gojo clenched his jaw and then shook his head. β€œSomeone like you would never do that without a price.”
The King of Curses hummed in approval. β€œThat’s correct,” he conceded, β€œbut this time, luck would have it that I’m feeling generous. And your sweet sorcerer is too valuable to perish.”
Satoru gave Sukuna an unreadable stare before focusing his attention on your face for a minute.Β 
β€œI’m going to bring you back, baby,” he mumbled, his fingers delicately tracing your cheeks, β€œvery soon.”
Gojo stood up with you in his arms and then anchored his cool gaze on the Cursed Spirit inhabiting Yuji’s body.Β 
β€œTell me what to do in order to bring her back to me.”
Sukuna grinned like a Cheshire Cat. β€œI just need to touch her soul and transfer some of my cursed energy into it,” he explained to Gojo, β€œso that she can come out of the limbo she’s currently in and rejoin the land of the living once more.”
Satoru gave him a slight nod. β€œIf you hurt her or try using a Binding Vow,” he began, his voice as glacial as the deepest winter, β€œthere won’t be anything left of you, Sukuna.”
Sukuna raised his eyebrows. β€œIf I wanted to hurt your sweet sorcerer, I would have done it by now,” he stated flatly. β€œBesides, I already have one Binding Vow with the brat, and that’s enough for me.”
The Cursed Spirit then took a step forward and closed the distance between your bodies. β€œI must warn you thoughβ€”when she comes back, she could be different.”
Gojo frowned. β€œWhat do you mean by that?”
Sukuna clicked his tongue. β€œThe last time I did this, that person came back without their Cursed Energy.”
Gojo clenched his teeth. He could work with that, as long as you were okay and in his arms. β€œAs long as no harm comes to her, do what you have to do.”
Sukuna quickly grasped your arm, inhaling sharply as he closed his eyes. His Cursed Energy began to flow from his body to yours, and your figure shed a glow of purple with red and black hues.
Gojo’s nerves hummed with anticipation as apprehension clouded his features. Then, he heard your breathing and heartbeat picking up, and his heart palpitated with euphoria.
The Strongest Sorcerer held his breath, forgetting about Sukuna being nearby, and he tenderly called out your name as your eyes slowly fluttered open.
You blinked as you heard a voice uttering your name with fondness. You angled your head towards one side as you realized you were in someone’s arms, and your gaze landed on an angelic face.
β€œBaby,” he gulped and then took a deep breath, β€œhow do you feel?”
You brought your hand to his cheek, and the tip of your fingers traced his features. β€œI feel good,” you murmured as his eyes lit up, β€œyour face looks familiar to me,β€œ you trailed off as his eyes widened, β€œwhat is your name?β€œ

Fractured
Fate (Gojo x Fem! Reader)
(TW: blood, death, depression)
Tumblr media
β€”β€”β€”β€”β€”β€”β€”β€”β€”β€”β€”β€”β€”β€”β€”β€”
The bustling routine of caring for Tsumiki and Megumi had brought a profound sense of fulfillment you hadn't realized was missing in your life. From escorting them to school in the mornings to late-night homework sessions and cooking their favorite meals, your days were filled with the sounds of their laughter and the warmth of their presence.
As the higher-ups demanded most of Satoru's time, you had naturally become the main caretaker, ensuring their days were filled with love, nurturing, and the simple joys of childhood. The joy of being a family filled your home, even during those moments when Satoru's responsibilities kept him away.
Over the years, your unwavering commitment ensured that Satoru was present for every significant milestone in Tsumiki and Megumi's lives. Whether it was a birthday party, a school performance, or a holiday celebration, you orchestrated these moments with meticulous care, ensuring that they were filled with happiness and joy.
As Christmas approached, you took it upon yourself to create a festive atmosphere in your home. Decorating the tree, wrapping presents, and transforming your living space into a winter wonderland became cherished traditions.
One particularly delightful tradition involved Satoru dressing up as Santa, much to the children's amusement. Though they were well aware of his true identity, their laughter and smiles when they saw "Santa" brought an undeniable magic to the holiday season. Your efforts were dedicated to ensuring that Tsumiki and Megumi had as many fond memories as possible, no matter the circumstances
The passage of time was evident in the changing seasons, and now, eight years had slipped through your fingers. The once-bitterly cold snow had given way to the gentle warmth of spring. May flowers bloomed in abundance, casting a colorful tapestry across the landscape.
Around your dining table, the atmosphere was festive, and you joined together in singing "Happy 15th Birthday" to Tsumiki. The years had transformed the little girl into a young woman, and as you celebrated this significant milestone, you couldn't help but reflect on the beautiful journey your family had been on together.
Amidst the cheerful ambiance of Tsumiki's 15th birthday celebration, you gently posed the question as you cut the cake, a soft smile on your lips. Your husband, Satoru, leaned in eagerly, as always, ready for a slice, or maybe more.
Tsumiki's thoughtful eyes met yours as she replied, "I wished that things could stay like this forever." Her words struck a chord deep within your heart. In that moment, everything else faded away, and the world felt like it had come to a halt.
With Tsumiki and Megumi by your side, you and Satoru had woven a warm, loving home, despite the trials and tribulations. And that was the greatest wish you could've asked for – a future filled with unconditional love and happiness.
As you gently kissed Tsumiki's cheek and placed a piece of cake in front of her, you reassured her with love in your eyes. "It will, I promise."
Watching your family enjoy the cake, you couldn't help but feel a profound sense of hope wash over you. As the birthday celebration continued, you couldn't help but notice the subtle unease in Megumi's eyes. It was clear that something had been weighing on his mind, and with the family gathered around to enjoy the cake and festivities, he finally mustered the courage to voice his concern.
With a hint of nervousness, he leaned over the table, fiddling with his cake fork, and finally asked the question that had been bothering him. "You're going back to work in a month, right?"
Meeting Megumi's gaze, you could feel the depth of his worry. You understood his concerns well. It had been a while since you had been actively involved in sorcerer duties, and he didn't want you to get hurt when you returned to the field. Beneath his apprehension, there was a strong desire to become a capable sorcerer like Satoru, not only to protect himself but to ensure that you and Tsumiki could have a peaceful life, free from the dangers of the jujutsu world.
With a warm smile, you reached over and placed your hand on his, a gesture of understanding and reassurance. "I know you're concerned," you responded. "But remember, I'll only be working with Shoko at the school, and it'll be for only four hours a day. Most of the time, I'll be home, taking care of you and Tsumiki.”
Your words carried not just reassurance but a deep understanding of his feelings, making him feel acknowledged and supported in his concerns.
As Satoru reveled in the festivities and savored the delectable cake, he couldn't resist the temptation for a third helping. With a mischievous glint in his eyes, he reached for yet another slice while playfully teasing Megumi. β€œWorried about Mom, huh?"
Not one to let such remarks slide, Megumi swiftly snatched the cake away. "You should be worried about getting diabetes, old man," he replied with a sly grin.
Satoru began to put on a dramatic performance, exclaiming, "[Name], my darling, do you see how heβ€”" However, you cut him off before he could continue.
With an affectionate chuckle, you addressed your husband, "My love, I'm not the food police, but Gumi's right. You had an entire sundae, three pastries, and two chocolate bars. No more for you tonight." Your gentle laughter filled the room as Satoru pouted playfully, while Tsumiki, seeing the playful interaction, pat his head before bringing her own plate into the kitchen.
As you and Satoru exchanged amused glances, the sound of Tsumiki rinsing her plate in the kitchen and Megumi clearing the table drifted through the room. It was these simple, everyday moments that had become an integral part of your lives.
β€”β€”β€”β€”β€”β€”β€”β€”β€”β€”β€”β€”β€”β€”β€”β€”-
Your footsteps felt heavy as you walked down the cold, sterile hospital hallway, each step echoing the dread building within you. The attending physician, a solemn expression on her face, led you towards a single room at the very end of the hallway. The white walls, the scent of antiseptic, and the distant hum of medical equipment added to the overwhelming feeling of unease.
As soon as the door to Tsumiki's room closed, leaving the two of you alone in the sterile, unnerving environment, you couldn't contain the wave of emotions that washed over you. You collapsed into a chair by her side, your trembling hands reaching out to hold hers. There she lay, comatose because of a sinister curse that had taken her away from you.
The knowledge that there was nothing you could have done to prevent this tragedy weighed heavily on your heart. A deep sense of guilt gnawed at your very core. You had made a solemn vow eight years ago to protect both Tsumiki and Megumi, and now, seeing her comatose form, you felt like you had failed her.
Tears streamed down your cheeks as you reached out to gently hold Tsumiki's hand. Her frail, motionless presence seemed to magnify your own helplessness, and you couldn't help but speak softly through your sobs. "I'm so sorry, Tsumiki. We promised to keep you safeβ€œ pausing as a soft sob escaped past your lips,β€œplease wake up my baby, we need you.”
Your apology and plea carried the weight of your love, your pain, and your overwhelming sense of responsibility. Each word trembled with the sadness and despair you felt at that moment. Your tears fell like a torrential rain, and you clung to Tsumiki's hand as if your grip could somehow transfer your love and strength to her dormant form.
In the still, sterile hospital room, your voice echoed, a haunting symphony of sorrow and hope. You yearned for the day when Tsumiki would open her eyes, and everything would be okay once more.
A soft, hesitant knock echoed through the room, granting you a brief moment to regain your composure. With a trembling breath, you opened the door and came face to face with a six-foot-tall man. He was dressed impeccably in a sharp black suit that exuded an air of authority and formality. As you closed the door gently behind you, your heart raced in your chest, and a sense of trepidation loomed over the encounter.
"The Special Counsel has determined that Megumi Fushiguro is now of an age to attend Jujutsu High full-time. They send their regards and condolences for Miss Tsumiki’s current state but since she is comatose, you are now required to start working full time. I'm here to escort you to the aircraft. All the mission details will be provided on the plane," the man gruffly informed, his words heavy with an air of formality and cold detachment.
Your voice quivered with desperation as you argued with the man. "I understand he's old enough for the school, but his sister just fell into a coma, and I'm their guardian. They both need me," you pleaded. As the tension in the argument escalated, you cast a frantic glance down the hall, spotting Megumi and Satoru approaching. Your desperation deepened as the gravity of the situation weighed heavily on your shoulders.
You locked eyes with Megumi, your maternal instincts screaming at you to rush toward him, to make things better for both him and his comatose sister. Before you could act on that impulse, a vice-like grip on your wrist stopped you dead in your tracks.
The man's face remained as stern as a stone fortress, his grip unyielding, as he spoke, his voice cold and unemotional. "I comprehend your concerns, but this is not a matter of choice. You will come with me." His words bore down on you like an unmovable mountain, leaving no room for argument or negotiation.
The tension in the air grew thicker, your desperation increasing as the seconds ticked away. You couldn't stand the unyielding grip on your wrist or the man's cold demeanor. Your frustration reached a boiling point as you hissed, "Fuck off, my kids come first," and with a quick, assertive motion, you managed to slip out of his hold.
As you passed by Satoru to reach Megumi, you locked eyes with him. In that fleeting moment, you saw a fire burning in his gaze, a smoldering rage that simmered just beneath the surface. Satoru, usually so composed and charismatic, was livid. The fact that some unknown figure had dared to lay hands on his wife had ignited a fury within him that threatened to consume everything in its path.
His clenched jaw and the intensity of his stare spoke volumes, a silent promise that he wouldn't let this indignity go unpunished. The air crackled with the unspoken message that the man who had touched you would soon face the consequences of provoking the wrath of a protective and furious Satoru Gojo.
Adrenaline coursing through your veins and a flicker of fear danced in your [e/c] eyes, but you steadied yourself with a deep breath, shifting your focus to Megumi as he approached.
Your concerned gaze swept over him, making sure he was alright before taking his hand in yours. "Ready?" you asked, your voice gentle and reassuring. He silently nodded, and together, you stepped into the room.
As the door clicked shut behind you, you could feel Megumi's tension instantly. Holding his hand, you gently squeezed it, guiding him to the chair right by his sister's side. The sterile hospital room felt heavy with uncertainty and tension, your hearts racing.
Then, a hurried knock at the door sent another jolt of anxiety through you. With a determined yet tearful gaze, you locked eyes with Megumi, your voice trembling as a whirlwind of emotions threatened to engulf you.
"Megumi, I promised you two would be happy with us, and I promise we'll find a way to break the curse," your voice quivered, a torrent of sorrow and hope intermingling.
Your tears flowed freely as you continued, "I... I'm so sorry, but I have to go now." Your lips pressed against his forehead in a final, loving kiss, and you held him in your arms one last time. "Satoru will be here for you. Lean on him, please. I love you both, Gumi," you whispered, your voice heavy with the immense weight of the moment.
As you pulled away, your eyes remained locked with his, a deep well of sorrow and affection in that parting gaze. Reluctantly, you let him go and stepped out of the room, leaving the two siblings alone, the pain of separation echoing in your heart.
With the door closing behind you, you were met by the burning intensity of your husband's fury, a fire you had never seen in him before. His eyes blazed with anger, and the air around him crackled with tension.
Satoru's seething rage threatened to boil over, and you knew you needed to intervene to prevent a dangerous confrontation. Stepping between him and the stranger, you asserted your authority with unwavering determination.
"I am [Name] Gojo," you declared in a voice that held both power and resolve, "and I demand five minutes with my husband before I leave on this mission."
Your words hung in the air like a challenge, and with a firm yet gentle grip, you took Satoru by the wrist and led him to a nearby empty sitting area. The tension in the room was suffocating, and you knew it was time to address the anger and turmoil that threatened to consume you both.
In the dimly lit corridor of the hospital, you reached out, your hands trembling as you grasped both of Satoru's. Tears streamed down your face as you looked into his eyes, your voice quivering with fear and desperation.
"I know, I know," you began, your voice shaking with the weight of the moment. "I know I don't need to tell you this, but please, please watch over them," you pleaded, your voice breaking as he pulled you into a tight embrace. His strong arms wrapped around you, providing a brief moment of solace in the midst of turmoil.
"I will, you know I will," Satoru reassured you, his voice a comforting anchor in your storm of emotions.
You pulled away slightly, trembling from the anxiety coursing through you. "I can't fight this; they've made their decision," you admitted, desperation evident in your voice. "Something's not right about this, Satoru, I can feel it. I justβ€”" You glanced at your watch, the seconds ticking away relentlessly.
Time was running out.
"I love you, Satoru," you whispered, your voice trembling, tears freely flowing down your cheeks. As you spoke, he gently cradled your tear-stained face in his hands, pulling you into a passionate, desperate kiss. β€œI love you too," Satoru whispered, his voice filled with raw emotion, his eyes locked onto your [e/c] eyes, which glistened with unshed tears. "You are my everything, so please, come home," he pleaded, his love and anguish vividly displayed in his expression.
"I will, I promise. I love you, my darling," you reassured him, your voice filled with determination and affection. You placed a chaste, lingering kiss on his lips before turning away, the weight of your duties pressing down on you, despite the tumultuous emotions that threatened to overwhelm your resolve.
β€”β€”β€”β€”β€”β€”β€”β€”β€”β€”β€”β€”β€”β€”β€”β€”
You sat in the car, your mind numb, as it transported you to the airfield. Upon arrival, you were swiftly ushered onto a private jet. The plane was nearly empty, save for a pilot and a stewardess. In this solitude, you found a strange sense of solace amidst the maelstrom of emotions that churned within you.
The aircraft's engines roared to life, but the journey remained quiet, which was somewhat of a relief. The absence of conversation allowed you a moment of respite, even though the heaviness of your thoughts weighed you down throughout the flight. The silence mirrored the emptiness you felt without your husband and the children you had grown to love so dearly
As you peeled off the sweat-soaked clothes, your racing heart and trembling hands revealed the gravity of the situation. The realization that you'd have to leave your husband and two beloved children behind in the midst of this crisis gnawed at your every thought.
The hot water in the shower was a deluge of both cleansing warmth and the cruel reminder of the world you were being forced back into. The jets of water pounded against your body, a stark contrast to the tenderness of your last moments with Satoru and the kids.
Once you were clean and dressed, a hot meal and a thick dossier were placed in front of you, but they might as well have been bricks. You pushed the food around your plate, eating mechanically, knowing that you needed sustenance for the ordeal ahead.
β€”β€”β€”β€”β€”β€”β€”β€”β€”β€”β€”β€”β€”β€”β€”β€”
"Rural Minnesota?" you mumbled, your voice laden with dread as you skimmed the dossier. The details only reinforced your anxiety. The mission was not only challenging but also deeply unsettling.
As the vehicle ascended through winding mountain roads, lush green trees and towering peaks surrounded you, creating a serene and breathtaking landscape. The breathtaking scenery was a stark contrast to the storm of emotions swirling inside you.
Deeper into the mountains you ventured, your stomach coiled with anxiety. You held an unshakable confidence in your abilities, but you couldn't suppress the dreadful feeling that began to creep in when the entrance of the mission site finally appeared on the horizon.
Exiting the vehicle, an overwhelming sense of dΓ©jΓ  vu washed over you as you surveyed the desolation of the town. It felt like a haunting mirror of what you had read in the report detailing Suguru's heinous acts. A shiver ran down your spine, and a deep-seated dread began to gnaw at your insides, but you forcefully pushed those haunting thoughts aside.
The town seemed like a ghostly remnant of the past, frozen in time. It was a place where no more than a thousand people could have lived, yet as you cautiously moved through the abandoned buildings, there wasn't a single soul to be found. The heavy silence was punctuated by the ominous echoes of past horrors, intensifying the growing drama and unease that clung to the air.
As you made your way through the desolate neighborhoods, you froze in place, fear paralyzing you. There, right before your eyes, was an SUV that looked exactly like the one your younger siblings had been driven away in. It was as if a ghost from your past had materialized, sending a chilling shiver down your spine. Your breath quickened, and your pulse raced with an overwhelming sense of fear, your mind racing with the horrifying possibilities that lay ahead.
Your legs moved involuntarily, propelled by sheer terror, as you sprinted toward the home. The moment you pushed past the broken front door, the pungent, metallic smell of blood hit you like a tidal wave, assaulting your senses. The very air was saturated with a thick, ominous dread that squeezed your heart in a vise.
The sight that met your eyes was a nightmare. Your younger siblings and their parents lay slaughtered before you. Their lifeless bodies, bathed in crimson, bore the cruel marks of violence. Instinctively, you rushed to their sides, heart pounding with a desperate need to save them, but you knew deep down that it was too late. Your healing abilities were powerless to reverse the horrors that had been inflicted upon them
Tears flowed like an unending river down your cheeks, blurring your vision as your anguished cries reverberated throughout the house. Each sob felt like a searing, relentless ache in your chest, threatening to tear you apart. As you wept uncontrollably, the bitter taste of betrayal stung your tongue. "This was never supposed to happen," you thought, your silent lament echoing in the shattered, blood-stained room.
The weight of broken promises from the higher-ups bore down on you, intensifying your torment. The world around you seemed to blur and distort as you grappled with the overwhelming sense of despair, your hope shattered like the lives that lay before you.
A chilling realization crept over you, sending a shiver down your spine. As you surveyed the scene, a subtle sense of dread washed over you. It became clear that the remnants of malevolent curse energy lingered in the air, like ominous fingerprints left behind in the aftermath of a calculated and sinister plan.
Examining the wounds on the lifeless bodies, it was evident that they were purposeful, precise strikes that had taken place with meticulous intent. It was as though they had been waiting for you to draw near, lurking in the shadows, and then, as soon as you had gotten closer, their fatal strike had been executed with ruthless efficiency. The revelation that they had murdered your family the moment you approached the scene filled you with a chilling sense of vulnerability and dread.
An overwhelming numbness enveloped you as you painstakingly checked through each home. It was as if the world around you had turned into a bleak, nightmarish tableau. Every single living being, without exception, had met their demise within the confines of their homes. The calculated brutality of the acts weighed heavily on your soul, and you found yourself unable to fathom how this unspeakable horror had come to pass.
With mechanical movements, you trudged through the desolation, your senses dulled by the sheer magnitude of the tragedy that unfolded before your eyes.
The town, once teeming with life, now lay in utter desolation. The perpetrators had orchestrated this gruesome massacre with eerie precision, knowing that you would eventually arrive on this grim scene.
As you ventured toward the outskirts of the town, the gnawing numbness persisted, rendering you incapable of fully processing the magnitude of the catastrophe that had unfolded. The unrelenting shock and disbelief left you suspended in a world where the unfathomable had become reality.
As you meticulously scoured the nearby forestry, your movements deliberate and cautious, you suddenly encountered an unfamiliar adversary. Two grotesque branches jutted out from its eye sockets, like twisted, malevolent antlers. The sight was a macabre fusion of horror and surrealism, a manifestation of power that transcended the bounds of nature.
Fear coiled tightly in your chest as you gazed upon this grotesque visage. It was a moment that defied explanation, an embodiment of the unknown. In that instant, you knew that you were confronting a formidable and enigmatic force that had the power to unleash your deepest fears and disrupt your resolve.
Intrigued yet wary, you initiated a conversation, your voice laced with tension. "Who are you? What are you doing here?"
They met your gaze with an eerie calmness and then, without a word, unleashed their abilities. An overwhelming sense of dΓ©jΓ  vu surged through you, the delicate blooms twisted into a malevolent force, exuding a mesmerizing aura that left you dazed and disoriented.
The very air seemed to blur, and your senses were overwhelmed by the suffocating aroma. As the insidious power of these petals took hold, you struggled to maintain your focus and direction. Everything became a distorted and disorienting whirl, your senses swimming through a fog of confusion. Your movements faltered, and your mind felt as if it was slipping away. In that bewildering moment, it seized the opportunity to escape, leaving you with a lingering sense of dread.
The dense forest seemed to close in around you as you continued your search for your assailant. With every rustle of leaves and every whisper of the wind, your heart raced faster. The sensation of being hunted was unsettling, and you couldn't shake the fear that this creature was toying with you.
No matter how hard you tried, they remained elusive, an almost ghostly presence in the woods. With a sinking feeling, you realized that returning to the vehicle was your safest option. Engaging in a confrontation with an enemy you couldn't even locate would only lead to further danger. As you retraced your steps, a nagging unease weighed heavily on your mind. You knew Hanami was cunning and intelligent, and underestimating them would be a grave mistake.
You retraced your steps back to the sleek, dark sedan that had brought you here, a heavy heart weighing down every step. Despite your best efforts to glean any hints or leads, the malevolent forces behind this gruesome scene had left no trace except for the harrowing tableau they'd wanted you to witness.
As the luxury black sedan began to glide away from the scene, you settled into the plush leather seats with an eerie detachment. The lavish interior, once a symbol of comfort and prestige, now felt incongruous with the haunting images etched in your mind.
Your own appearance had been neglected in the relentless quest for answers, and as you finally spared a glance at yourself, a mixture of blood and dirt clung to your garments. The sight brought an unsettling realization of how deeply you'd been affected by the horrors you'd just witnessed.
With a numbed sense of detachment, you stared at the stains on your clothes and the blood-drenched shoes, each mark a testament to the unspeakable tragedy you had encountered. Despite the relative comfort of the vehicle, the overwhelming sense of numbness and despair lingered, like an indelible scar on your soul, leaving you feeling adrift in a world irrevocably altered.
Despite the soothing embrace of a hot shower and the comfort of fresh clothing, it felt as though the vivid memories were inescapable. No matter how fervently you scrubbed, their bloodstains persisted, a haunting reminder of the horrors you'd witnessed.
Your stomach churned with a relentless sense of nausea as you gazed down at the gourmet meal elegantly presented by the stewardess. However, you couldn't bring yourself to take a bite, pushing the tray aside. Your gaze drifted to the window, where the serene clouds sailed by, but your vision blurred as tears welled up in your eyes.
The last moments with them played on a loop in your mind, and a sense of unbearable sadness overcame you. You had made promises, you had given your all, you had followed their every instruction, and yet it seemed that fate had cruelly betrayed you.
The weight of that perceived failure bore down on your heart, and you couldn't hold back the silent sobs that wracked your body as you curled up into a ball in the plush, lush seat, the tears tracing the contours of your profound, heartbreaking sorrow.
Dark circles had found a permanent home under your eyes, constant companions in the wake of relentless insomnia. The haunting images of the lifeless bodies and the resurgence of past traumas left you tossing and turning throughout the flight, despite the lush queen sized bed they had prepared for you. Every restless moment served as a cruel reminder, etching deeper lines of anguish on your face.
With a mechanical, almost numb demeanor, you disembarked from the jet as it touched down in Kyoto. The somber weight of your mission loomed heavily upon you, and you were quickly ushered away to face the enigmatic higher-ups. They sought answers, but they couldn't possibly fathom the turmoil within you.
As you were whisked away to provide your statement, your every movement seemed robotic, a mere echo of your once-vibrant self. Anguish simmered just beneath the surface, your eyes reflecting the torment that had become your constant companion.
They ushered you into the meeting room, where a large, imposing table stretched out in front of you. The seats surrounding it were occupied by members of the special counsel, expressions veiled and inscrutable, their unspoken disapproval was palpable.
Your eyes darted around, searching for Satoru, but the clock on the wall showed a time that was far from convenient. It was evident that they had purposefully arranged your early arrival, depriving you of his support.
As the questioning began, the council's interrogation was relentless. They demanded details of the mission and the horrors you had encountered, their skepticism hanging heavy in the air.
"I assure you, the account I've given is the truth," you responded firmly, your voice unwavering in the face of their doubt. Still, deep down, you longed for Satoru's reassuring presence, his unwavering support, and the strength he had always provided you in moments like this.
The council members peered at you, their eyes carrying a weight of skepticism. One of them spoke with a stern tone, "You said that the curse you encountered had intelligence. Is that correct, Mrs. Gojo?"
You nodded, your voice unwavering as you responded, "Yes, it had killed the townsfolk and purposely killed my siblings and their parents last in anticipation of my arrival."
As you spoke, you couldn't help but feel the weight of the memories and the trauma resurface, but you took a deep breath to steady yourself, determined to convey the truth to this disapproving council.
The council members exchanged glances as they processed your testimony. One of them inquired further, "You stated it possessed a technique similar to your own?"
You felt anger simmering within you, but you kept your composure as you answered, "Yes, it fled by subduing me with an effect similar to my flower field."
Your voice remained steady, but a spark of frustration danced in your eyes as you recounted the unnerving encounter.
As one of the council members tried to wrap up the questioning, you couldn't contain your own inquiries any longer, a simmering intensity laced your voice as you interrupted him.
"How did you people let this happen?" You darkly questioned, your gaze piercing each of their faces in turn.
Your accusation hung in the air, leaving an uncomfortable silence in its wake as they struggled to find a response. The council members started with a cold acknowledgment, "We give you our condolences for your loss and understand how you feel."
Emotions surged within you, and you couldn't contain your frustration. "There's absolutely no way in hell you could ever understand how I feel!" you seethed, your voice trembling with a mixture of grief and anger. "I left my home country and everything I knew behind for the safety of my siblings! You promised me they would be safe."
Suddenly, without your notice, Satoru quietly entered the room. His presence, though unnoticed by you, represented a reassuring figure in the face of the dispassionate council.
"We ensured they went to a safe and happy home. There was no way for us to predict that a curse spirit with high intelligence could target that exact town," one council member explained.
"You were one of the only ones who knew their whereabouts. I left them to come here so they could be better off," you cried, your voice quivering with anguish, a small trail of blood trickling down your nose.
"Mrs. Gojo, you need to calm down," one council member attempted to soothe you.
"Don't tell me to calm down!" you screamed, the weight of their deaths, Tsumiki's condition, and all the accumulated stress finally settling in. Your legs gave way, and you stumbled, but Satoru rushed to your side, catching you in his arms. The emotional turmoil and the physical strain had taken their toll on you.
Your body, unable to contain the emotional and physical toll, began to betray you. Blood steadily trickled out of your nose, dribbling past your lips and chin. Your cheeks flushed with a feverish warmth, and your eyes were glazed with distress. Satoru looked down at you with deep concern, understanding the gravity of the situation.
As your condition rapidly worsened, your husband Satoru was beside himself. His deep concern for your health mixed with the anger he felt toward the special counsel. The realization that they had deliberately made him late for this inquisition, preventing him from being with you when you needed him most, infuriated him. His usually calm and collected demeanor gave way to an uncharacteristic storm of emotions.
The council, though concerned about your well-being, was met with Satoru's wrath. "You manipulated this situation. Your petty games and power plays have consequences. If anything happens to her because of this, there will be no place for you to hide," he seethed.
With that, Satoru, maintaining his composure, gently cradled you in his arms, determined to get you the medical attention you needed.
The journey to the medical facility was torturous for both you and Satoru. Clutched in his arms, your fever raged on, and in your delirium, you repeated the same words like a heart-wrenching mantra: "They're dead... They're dead..." Each utterance felt like a stab in Satoru's chest, a reminder of the pain you were enduring.
As he held you close, Satoru couldn't do anything to alleviate the torment you were experiencing. All he could offer was his unwavering presence and the hope that the doctors could provide some relief.
However, as the miles passed, your voice grew weaker and more strained until finally, you went limp in his arms. Your exhausted body surrendered to unconsciousness, and all Satoru could do was press a tender kiss to your forehead and hold you as tightly as he could, vowing silently that he would help you through this unimaginable ordeal.
It took three agonizing days before you regained consciousness. When you finally awoke, it was not in the comfort of your home but in a sterile, unfamiliar hospital room. The dim, artificial lighting seemed to mirror the heaviness that had settled upon your heart.
The memories of the tragic events in that town had taken a toll on your spirit. The loss of your siblings and the cruel manipulation of the special counsel had left you profoundly depressed. Satoru, who had been tirelessly at your side throughout your ordeal, now watched over you with deep concern.
The vibrant, lively person you once were seemed to have faded, replaced by a heavy-hearted version of yourself. The days moved sluggishly, punctuated by silent tears and a crushing sense of despair.
Tears cascaded down your cheeks as you aimlessly wandered through your once-beloved apartment, its empty rooms now serving as a constant reminder of what had been lost. With a heavy heart, you found yourself sitting beside the closed bedroom doors, one labeled 'Tsumiki' and the other 'Megumi,' each a portal to your pain.
You couldn't bring yourself to enter either room. The special counsel's decision had become an unshakeable weight on your soul. Tsumiki lay motionless in the hospital, trapped in a seemingly endless coma, while Megumi was consumed by his demanding studies and training.
Frustration, sadness, and a sense of profound helplessness filled your thoughts. Your anguished dialogue, whispered to no one in particular, echoed down the empty corridor outside their rooms, a testament to your anguish. "I can't believe this... I thought things would be different," you choked out, the grief heavy in every syllable. Tears streamed down your cheeks as you continued, "I miss them so much."
The house was eerily dark and quiet when Satoru returned home, an unusual hush that sent a chill down his spine. His heart sank as he ventured further inside, and the sense of foreboding only deepened when he discovered you curled up in front of the kids' bedroom doors. Tears had left their indelible mark on your cheeks, evidence of your heart-wrenching anguish.
Satoru's footsteps grew heavy as he approached you, the very air weighed down by the unspoken grief in the room. He gently knelt beside you, his hand tenderly brushing a strand of hair from your tear-streaked face. Your body had finally succumbed to exhaustion, allowing you to rest even in the midst of this tragedy.
The silence was broken only by the soft sound of your breathing, and the atmosphere was laden with tension, sadness, and an overwhelming sense of despair. As Satoru gazed upon your form, he couldn't help but feel the weight of the world pressing on his shoulders, the thought of the happiness you all once shared seemed like a distant memory.

New Beginnings
Fate (Gojo x Fem! Reader)
Tumblr media
β€”β€”β€”β€”β€”β€”β€”β€”β€”β€”β€”β€”β€”β€”β€”β€”
Your heart raced as you put the final touches on your makeup, a mixture of excitement and confidence flooding your senses. You couldn't help but smirk as you glanced at your reflection in the mirror. Feeling undeniably sexy in your attire, you were ready for the night.
Ever since you made that heartfelt promise to Satoru, the two of you had grown closer than ever. It felt like you were practically attached at the hip, spending nearly every moment you could together. However, there was a subtle change in the air. Satoru was taking on more dangerous missions, his determination to keep you and those he cared about safe evident in his actions, adding an extra layer of tension to your already complex relationship.
In recent times, the hours you and Satoru could spend together had become increasingly rare. His growing involvement in more special grade missions seemed to leave little room for the moments that once filled your daily life.
Surprisingly, he showed up at your dorm one early morning. As you opened the door, your eyes half-closed from sleep, you were met with the sight of Satoru Gojo standing there, radiating his usual energy. You yawned, your disheveled hair a testament to your exhaustion. This was your first full weekend off in a long time, and you had been looking forward to catching up on much-needed rest.
"Mornin', [Name]," he greeted, his voice full of enthusiasm. With a half-smile, you nodded sleepily in response, silently wondering what brought him here. Satoru breezed into your room as if he owned the place, taking in the surroundings as he began to speak.
"What are your plans for this weekend?" Satoru's cheerful question filled the room. His gaze settled on one of his favorite pictures in your room, capturing a moment from a past summer festival. It was a picture of you wearing a traditional yukata alongside Shoko. You looked absolutely radiant in that photo, and it was on days like that you had a way of unknowingly stealing his heart. The intensity of his feelings welled up, although he didn't let it show on his charismatic smile.
Plopping back down on your bed with a long yawn, sleepy tears streamed down your cheeks. You tried to dry your eyes with the backs of your hands before grabbing the large teddy bear he'd won for you at said festival. You snuggled into its softness, momentarily forgetting about his question as your body relaxed into it. Satoru watched you with a mixture of affection and concern, realizing just how tired you were and wanting to make your weekend special.
As the weariness of your recent schedule finally took its toll, you couldn't fight off the lure of sleep any longer. Your eyelids drooped, and before you knew it, you had fallen asleep, your teddy bear cradled in your arms.
Satoru watched you for a moment, a fond and affectionate smile gracing his lips as he gazed at you. He took a mental snapshot of this moment, knowing that your well-deserved rest was essential. Just before leaving past the school gates he quickly sent you a reminder text for later that night, knowing that your hunger would wake you long before then.
Your lips puckered as you expertly applied the final coat of lip gloss, the subtle shimmer enhancing your natural beauty. Your golden hoops dangled, glistening in the light as you brushed a stray piece of hair behind your ear. You couldn't help but smile when you noticed the soft, familiar knocking at your door.
As you opened the door, your eyes immediately locked onto Satoru, who stood there in his casual yet undeniably attractive attire. Adorning a plain white tee, snug jeans, and a sleek leather jacket, he exuded a magnetic charm. Your gaze couldn't help but linger on his well-defined chest and shoulders, heart racing as you took in his appearance.
As you gazed at him, Satoru couldn't help but feel a rush of emotions. "Hey, [Name], tonight, it's not just about dinner. It's about... us. What do you say?" He winked playfully.
Your cheeks warmed, and you chuckled softly at Satoru's flirtatious nature. You knew him well, understanding that his playful side was part of his charm. As much as your feelings for him ran deep, you also treasured the friendship that had grown between you over the years. It was too precious to risk.
With a teasing smile, you replied, "Satoru, don't make it more than it is. We're just having dinner, right?" You hoped to keep things light, but your heart couldn't help but race a little at the thought of where this might lead.
Satoru flashed you a mischievous grin. "Dinner, dessert, AND a surprise," he emphasized, causing your curiosity to pique as you both headed toward the exit. You playfully nudged his side, teasing him, "Ohhh, you got it like that tonight, huh?" Your eyes held a glint of amusement as you watched him closely. His actions were definitely intriguing.
As the two of you approached a dark red Lexus coupe parked nearby, you couldn't help but make a playful comment, "Whose car did you steal?" Your surprise grew as he opened the car door for you. With a hint of pride, he responded, "No one's, it's mine." Your brows shot up in disbelief. "You're kidding, we're eighteen, how can you afford it?"
Satoru chuckled and slid into the driver's seat, then turned to you with a smug grin. "I am the head of the Gojo clan, remember." His tone held a mix of confidence and amusement, as if to say that being the head of such a prestigious clan had its perks.
You chuckled and continued, "I always forget, Satoru. It's because you don't act like some pompous jerk." Your eyes danced with amusement as you watched the world go by outside the car window. Satoru grinned, his signature playful glint in his eyes.
"Well, what's the fun in that? Life's too short to be serious all the time." He revved the car's engine, and you could feel the power beneath you as you sped down the highway. The anticipation of the evening ahead was mixed with the exhilaration of the fast ride, and it was shaping up to be a memorable night.
You couldn't resist the soothing rhythm of the car ride, and soon, the gentle sway of the vehicle lulled you into a peaceful nap. It was a testament to your trust in Satoru that you could sleep so soundly in his presence.
"Wake up, [Name]," Satoru's voice gently pulled you from your dreams. As you blinked awake, you were met with the most astonishing sight. The car had stopped at a secluded beach, softly illuminated by candles that danced with the sea breeze. A picnic dinner, arranged with professional elegance, was waiting for both of you.
The selection was a testament to his thoughtfulness, featuring your favorite dishes from around the world, including some from the United States. It was a tangible expression of how well he knew you, and your heart overflowed with gratitude and appreciation for the effort he had put into making this evening special.
The ocean waves whispered in the background, the sound soothing and serene as you both sat on the beach. Satoru's eyes danced with a warm, familiar affection as he watched you enjoy the meal he had arranged. Your healthy appetite only endeared you to him further.
As the sun dipped below the horizon, casting a golden glow over the sands, Satoru's expression shifted to one of earnestness. He set aside his plate, turning to you with a soft smile. "You know, [Name], there are some things I've been meaning to tell you."
Your heart quickened, curiosity mingled with a touch of anxiety. "What is it, Satoru?" you asked, your voice barely more than a whisper.
He leaned in closer, his voice a gentle caress. "I've cherished our friendship for a long time. You mean a lot to me, more than I can express. I love you [Name] [Surname].” His eyes held yours, filled with sincerity and a depth of emotion that left your heart racing, the ocean's gentle lullaby echoing your feelings.
Your heart raced as Satoru's heartfelt confession hung in the air, the waves crashing in the background now harmonizing with the rhythm of your pulse. The connection you shared was precious, and his words had just revealed the depth of his emotions, igniting your own feelings.
"I... Satoru, I- I," you stammered, at a loss for words, your heart pounding against your chest, craving to reveal what was in your heart.
Satoru, ever understanding, reached out to take your hand, his touch warm and reassuring. "You don't have to say anything right now. I just needed you to know how I feel."
You continued your meal in a somewhat dazed state, the atmosphere between you subtly changed, charged with unspoken emotions. As the sun dipped lower in the sky, you couldn't resist your curiosity any longer.
"Satoru," you began, your voice soft and tentative, "you mentioned there was something else you wanted to talk about. What is it?"
The ocean seemed to hold its breath, as if it, too, awaited Satoru's answer to this unspoken question.
He hesitated for a moment, his expression more serious now. "It's about Toji's child."
As the sun dipped beneath the horizon, painting the sky in hues of orange and pink, Satoru's words hung heavily in the dimming twilight, casting a weighty shadow over both of you.
"He had a child?" you inquired, your voice laced with surprise as the gravity of the situation settled upon you. Satoru nodded solemnly, his eyes reflecting a complex blend of sorrow, resolve, and responsibility. "Yes, a son. Toji confided in me that the child might be sold within the next two to three years. I can't stand by and let that happen. I feel a deep sense of responsibility for his well-being."
The revelation struck a chord within you, and the image of an innocent child being consigned to such a grim fate tugged at your heart, prompting tears to well up in your eyes.
His unwavering determination and resolute mission resonated deeply with you. It was more than a sense of duty; it was a calling born of empathy and compassion.
With your voice quivering yet resolute, you made a heartfelt offer. "Let's get married." The words carried the weight of your affection and your unyielding commitment to both Satoru and the cause he held so dear.
Satoru turned to you, his wide-eyed gaze reflecting a mix of astonishment, gratitude, and a hint of disbelief. "What?"
In the soft, fading light of the evening, your gaze bore into Satoru's, your eyes shimmering with an earnestness that mirrored the depth of your emotions. Your voice quivered with the sincerity of your feelings, and the words you spoke resonated with a profound truth.
"I love you, Satoru," you whispered, your voice a testament to the depth of your emotions. "More than anything in this world. Our lives as Jujutsu Sorcerers are unpredictable and fraught with danger, but I want to face that uncertainty with you, to live a life with no regrets, a life alongside you."
Tears welled up in your eyes, glistening with the unspoken weight of your affection. "I've always been ready to stand by your side," you continued, your voice unwavering, "to share in your burdens, and now, this. I can only imagine what that child has been through so far."
Your heartfelt confession hung in the air, creating a profound silence that enveloped the two of you. In that suspended moment, it was as if the rest of the world had faded into insignificance, leaving behind only the two of you and the profound connection that bound your hearts together.
Satoru's eyes locked onto yours, the weight of your love and determination reflected in that intense gaze. In this silent exchange of emotions, it was as if the world held its breath.
With a soft, sincere smile, he finally gave a nod. "Alright, then. Let's do this. Let's give that child a chance at a brighter future. And let's face whatever comes our way, together, with no regrets."
In that profound moment, the unspoken bond between you solidified, and you both knew that your lives were about to venture into uncharted territories. Challenges would come, but with the love and unwavering commitment you shared, you were ready to meet them head-on, hand in hand.
As the night deepened, you found yourselves wrapped in each other's arms, the world around you fading into obscurity. The tranquility of the beach, the gentle whisper of the ocean, and the warmth of Satoru's embrace created a cocoon of solace.
With each whispered promise, each tender touch, you felt the love between you grow stronger. The weight of Satoru's confession, the burden of caring for Toji's child, seemed less daunting in the glow of your love.
The world held its breath, as if honoring the connection you two shared on that serene beach. You whispered sweet nothings into the night, a symphony of love notes that would carry you into an uncertain but promising future.
Under the enchanting moonlit sky, with the gentle sound of the waves as your backdrop, Satoru leaned in, capturing your lips in a lingering kiss. It was a kiss filled with tenderness and deep affection, a promise of all the love that had grown between you. As your lips met, it felt as if the entire world had fallen away, leaving just the two of you in this serene, perfect moment.
The soft, warm touch of his lips sent shivers down your spine, igniting a passionate fire within your heart. You responded with equal fervor, savoring the exquisite taste of his kiss. It was a kiss that held all the unspoken words, all the emotions you'd ever felt for each other.
When you finally pulled away, your eyes locked in a loving gaze. In the depths of those eyes, you found the reassurance of a love that was as boundless as the sea and as eternal as the stars.
"I love you," Satoru whispered, his voice a gentle, cherished melody in the night.
Tears of joy welled up in your eyes as you replied, "I love you too." In that moment, under the vast canvas of the universe, you realized that your love was a force of nature, enduring and infinite, stronger than any challenge life could throw your way.
β€”β€”β€”β€”β€”β€”β€”β€”β€”β€”β€”β€”β€”β€”β€”β€”
Your eyes fluttered open to find Satoru's bare chest, his warmth and the memories of the passionate night before surrounding you like a cozy cocoon. As you stirred from your sleep, a contented sigh escaped your lips. The weight of last night's emotions and desires hung in the air, creating an electrifying tension between you.
The night had been filled with confessions of love, passion, and an overwhelming desire for each other. After Satoru had driven you to a luxurious hotel in Ginza, the room had become a sanctuary where your love for each other had bloomed in the most intimate of ways.
You couldn't help but trace your fingers gently across his skin, reliving the sensations of the night, when your love had reached new heights. In the soft morning light, you found yourself smiling, feeling grateful for the depth of connection you shared with the man whose arms held you so lovingly. It was a night that would forever bind you two together in a profound and passionate bond
The soft morning light filtered through the curtains, casting a gentle glow on your soon-to-be husband's bright white locks. Satoru Gojo lay there, peacefully asleep, looking more serene than anyone could imagine, especially with his infinity turned off. In that quiet moment, a profound sense of gratitude welled up within you.
Before you was not just the legendary sorcerer, the strongest of them all, but the man you had fallen in love with, the one who had swept you off your feet with his cocky and playful demeanor. He was the reason you had found a new home in Japan, and the man you couldn't imagine living without.
His features softened in slumber, and you couldn't resist reaching out to trace your finger along his jawline, just to savor the intimacy of the moment. With a loving smile, you whispered, "I love you, Satoru," knowing that this was just the beginning of your journey together, as partners in life and love.
β€”β€”β€”β€”β€”β€”β€”β€”β€”β€”β€”β€”β€”β€”β€”β€”
Satoru's refined tastes were on full display as the two of you strolled through the upscale streets of Ginza, known for its high-end retailers. Eventually, you arrived at the first jewelry shop that had caught his discerning eye, and you were cordially ushered into a private showroom.
A gracious sales assistant handed you a glass of champagne, and as you hesitated, you whispered to Satoru, "I'm only eighteen, I can't drink this." He chuckled in amusement, his voice a warm caress. "Live a little and relax. Remember, life is too short." His fingers gently nudged you, reassuringly pulling you closer to his side.
With the glass in hand, you took a cautious sip of the champagne. Its taste was a delightful blend of fruity and tart flavors, and you savored it. As the sales associate began showcasing a dazzling array of diamonds, each more exquisite than the last, you couldn't help but feel overwhelmed. The exquisite jewelry seemed a world away from your life as a Jujutsu sorcerer. "Satoru," you chuckled sheepishly, "this isn't necessary."
He responded with that irresistible smile of his, a hint of mischief in his eyes. His fingers danced gracefully over the polished glass that held a particularly rare cut diamond. He brought it closer for your examination, the jewel catching the soft lighting of the showroom. "I know it might seem extravagant," he began, his voice low and soothing, "but I want you to have the best. I may not be able to change your past, but I can change your future, and you deserve it."
Your heart swelled at his words, and the diamonds before you seemed to pale in comparison to the sparkle in his eyes. It was a reminder of the profound love and care he held for you, beyond the grand gestures and lavish gifts.
Amidst the dazzling array of diamonds, your gaze was drawn to a simple 1.5-carat princess-cut gem. Its timeless elegance called out to you, and you couldn't resist trying on a similar ring. As it slid onto your finger, a wave of emotions washed over you.
You looked at your hand, marveling at the contrast between the cool, smooth gold band and the fiery brilliance of the diamond. It was more than just a piece of jewelry; it felt like a promise, a symbol of love, commitment, and the future you were eager to embrace with Satoru.
Satoru, too, admired the ring on your finger. "You've got great taste, [Name]," he said, his voice laced with affection. Then, he turned to the sales assistant. "She'll wear this one out of the store, and please show us some matching wedding bands."
The sales assistant nodded, a knowing smile on her face. As she fetched the matching wedding bands, you and Satoru looked at each other, and the significance of that simple piece of jewelry sunk in, bonding you together in a way that transcended the material itself.
The sales assistant nodded and brought forth a splendid selection of wedding bands, each a work of art in its own right. You tried on various options, each more exquisite than the last, and it felt surreal. Raised in a life marked by financial struggles, this level of luxury was a striking departure from your past.
As you held up each ring, Satoru's fingers gently brushed against yours, creating a subtle yet profound connection between you both. It filled you with a complex mix of emotions, from sheer amazement to profound gratitude.
After a thoughtful selection process, you both settled on the perfect wedding bands. The private showroom felt like a cocoon of love and joy, where you not only chose rings but also painted the canvas of your future as a married couple. This moment symbolized the journey from your challenging past to the opulent and joyful present, a path you'd walked together, and the path you were now forging toward a promising future.
As you walked out of the showroom with those rings in a luxurious bag, you couldn't help but glance at Satoru with a heart full of gratitude, love, and excitement for the adventures that awaited you both.
β€”β€”β€”β€”β€”β€”β€”β€”β€”β€”β€”β€”β€”β€”β€”β€”
As you and Satoru celebrated your intimate wedding ceremony in a beautifully decorated garden, surrounded by the vibrant colors of blooming flowers and the warm smiles of your closest friends, Shoko couldn't help but add her own vibrant presence to the occasion.
She walked over, her face lighting up with a teasing grin as she approached the newlyweds. "Holy shit, Satoru, you really got [Name] to marry you?" Her words were filled with playful awe as she wrapped both of you in her embrace.
The atmosphere was one of joy and celebration. A gentle breeze played with your hair, the sun painted everything in a golden hue, and the sweet scent of flowers filled the air. The camaraderie between you, Shoko, and the other guests created a warm, welcoming ambiance. Your wedding day was turning out to be a beautiful and memorable celebration of love, friendship, and new beginnings.
With a good-natured laugh, Satoru replied, "Can you believe it, Shoko? I finally convinced her." His arm was wrapped around your waist as he held you close, and you leaned into his comforting presence.
Shoko playfully rolled her eyes. "Oh, I can believe it. [Name], you must have seen something special in this guy to tie the knot."
You nodded, your gaze filled with affection as you looked at Satoru. "I definitely did, Shoko. He's the only one who could've won over my heart."
Shoko's expression softened, and she gave a genuine smile. "Well, I'm happy for both of you. May your journey together be as incredible as the adventures you've faced as Jujutsu Sorcerers."
The three of you shared a warm, congratulatory embrace, surrounded by the love and support of your friends on this special day.
"[Name]," you turned around at the soft call of your name, and your eyes lit up with joy at the sight of Yaga. He stood there with tears in his eyes, gazing at you in your stunning wedding dress. Without hesitation, you swiftly hugged him, feeling the warmth of his embrace.
"Papa, none of this would've been possible if it weren't for you looking for me. I've never told you, but I'm so grateful that you adopted me," you softly confessed as happy tears trickled down your cheeks.
"[Name], I know I may not be your real father, but you will always be my daughter," Yaga proclaimed, his voice filled with love and pride, and he hugged you tightly.
Satoru watched this heartfelt exchange, a deep appreciation in his eyes. If it weren't for Yaga's kindness and the twist of fate that brought you into his life, he would've missed out on knowing the beautiful soul that you are.
As you left to speak amongst the other attendees, Satoru headed towards his old-time principal. The two men stood side by side, their attention fixed on you as you mingled with the other guests.
With a sense of heartfelt gratitude, Satoru broke the silence. "I want to thank you. If it weren't for your guidance, I might never have found the love of my life." His words carried a profound weight, reflecting the depths of his appreciation.
Yaga watched you with fondness, a paternal smile gracing his lips as he spoke to Satoru. "Treat her well, Satoru. She's seen the horrors of life, both in the normal world and the Jujutsu world. Protect her."
Satoru let out a soft chuckle, exuding a confidence that matched his words. "Old man, you don't need to worry. I'll protect her with my life. After all, I am the strongest." His tone held both playfulness and sincerity, expressing his unwavering commitment to you.
Yaga affectionately smacked the back of his long-time student's head, the love and concern evident in his actions. He followed the gentle smack by ruffling Satoru's signature white locks. "You know, the higher-ups aren't too happy about this, especially since she's a foreigner."
Satoru's response was laced with his typical nonchalant attitude, a hint of defiance in his words. "When have I ever cared about their opinions? She's a Gojo now."
Yaga's gaze turned serious as he imparted a word of caution. "I know, but keep your guard up. Old traditions die hard." With those words, he left to rejoin the festivities, leaving Satoru to reflect on the challenges that might lie ahead as a married Jujutsu Sorcerer.

β€œSatoru, why are all the apartments you've found so expensive? A million yen a month? Are you serious?" you questioned, your brows furrowed as you peered at the listings he had provided.
Satoru chuckled softly, looking over your shoulder at the screen. "Well, I do have expensive tastes. And my lovely wife deserves nothing but the best,” he concluded with a wink and a playful smile, swiftly planting a sweet kiss on your cheek before making his way around the couch to sit beside you.
"Would you rather us buy a home instead? I can have that arranged," Satoru explained, his arm gently pulling you closer as he spoke. You turned to look at him, his eyes filled with warmth and affection. "I appreciate your generosity, Satoru, but buying a home is a big step. Let's find a balance, somewhere comfortable but not too extravagant, where we can create our own little world together."
His smile grew even wider as he embraced you. "You're absolutely right, my love. We'll find the perfect place, a home that's just right for us, where we can build our life together."
As you continued your search, your eyes widened in surprise as you stumbled upon a perfect three-bedroom apartment. Its charm lay in the blend of modern elegance with a cozy, homey feel. The location was ideal, with easy access to shopping, restaurants, and public transit, making it a promising place to start your life together.
"Want to check it out?" Satoru inquired, leaning in closer, his warm breath tickling your ear.
You took a moment to consider it, peering at the listings on your laptop screen. "Well, it's getting quite late, they've probably left for the day," you replied, continuing to scroll through the listing gallery on your laptop.
Satoru shifted closer, wrapping an arm around your waist, making you feel both protected and loved. "My love, I can make anything happen. Just you watch. While I call my agent, why don't you find a good dessert shop nearby?" he suggested, planting a soft kiss on your neck.
A soft, involuntary moan escaped your lips, your cheeks blushing with warmth. As you prepared to get dressed and ready, you teased Satoru playfully. "If we're going out this late, you're taking me to dinner too, rich boy.”

You soon found yourselves seated in a cozy ramen shop, savoring your favorite type of ramen. The neon lights from the street outside illuminated your new house keys, now resting on the table, a silent promise of your shared future together.
With your new shared home secured, your mind began to gravitate toward the child you'd be searching for in the coming days.
As you and Satoru prepared to embark on this new journey, you couldn't help but reflect on the child's future. The busy lives you led as Jujutsu Sorcerers loomed before you, and you pondered how to provide the care and support this child would need.
Your heart ached at the thought. Your own experiences growing up in the foster care system had instilled in you a profound understanding of loneliness, and you couldn't bear the idea of this child feeling the same way.
Turning to Satoru, you softly posed a question that had been weighing on your mind, "Satoru, what do you think about me staying at home with the kid?"
A tender smile graced Satoru's lips as he gently took your hand into his own, his eyes filled with warmth. "Whatever you want to do, you know money isn't a problem," he softly assured.
You sighed, your brow furrowing with concern. "I know, it's just..." You hesitated, struggling to put your thoughts into words. "I don't think the higher-ups will allow me to take leave. They were wary of Yaga adopting me, but they only allowed me to come here on the condition that I get properly trained and work for them."
Satoru locked his gaze with yours, his eyes filled with unwavering resolve. "Don't worry so much," he declared, "I will arrange a meeting with them, and I'll go to great lengths if necessary. Remember, you're not just any sorcerer; you're my wife now, and they'll have to answer to me."
Your laughter filled the room as you playfully teased him. "Well, you are the almighty Satoru Gojo, aren't you? Nothing's ever been able to stand in your way," you said, your tone filled with affection and admiration, a tender smile gracing your lips.
Deep within your heart, you had unwavering faith in Satoru's determination to fulfill any request you made, but despite that, an uneasy feeling settled in the pit of your stomach.
β€”β€”β€”β€”β€”β€”β€”β€”β€”β€”β€”β€”β€”β€”β€”β€”
As you and Gojo walked hand in hand through the dimly lit, run-down alleyway, he led the way with purpose, determined to find the child. Arriving at the address provided by his informants, Gojo immediately spotted a young boy, no older than six, standing there, looking lost and forlorn.
"Who are you? And why are you looking at me like that?" Megumi began, his small face contorted with a mixture of curiosity and caution as he gazed up at Gojo's rather disgusted expression.
Gojo hesitated for a moment, then attempted to explain, "Well, it's just that you look exactly like..."
You swiftly elbowed him in the ribs, interrupting him. "Satoru, what's wrong with you?" you said, a bit exasperated. You knelt down to Megumi's eye level, offering a more compassionate and friendly presence.
You decided to take the lead, starting with polite introductions. "Let me reintroduce ourselves. I'm [Name] Gojo, and this here is my husband, Satoru Gojo. He's kind, just a bit... unusual at times," you said with a gentle smile. A small giggle escaped from Megumi as Satoru knelt next to you.
Satoru continued the conversation, addressing the crucial matter. "Your dad is from the Zen'in clan, a family of powerful sorcerers. I assume you have powers and can see them too, right? At your age, it's a ripe time to sell especially based on your abilities. Your dad kept you a secret from the clan as his trump card."
He began to mention something about Megumi's father, but Megumi swiftly cut him off with a response that showed surprising maturity for his age. "Who cares? I haven't seen him in years, and I don't remember what he looks like."
The boy's gaze shifted to a girl who waved at him from above. "Tsumiki's mom hasn't come back either, so that means they're done taking care of us and living happily now," Megumi finished, his voice tinged with an innocence that left you and Satoru lost for words.
You softened your gaze as you continued the conversation with Megumi. "Is Tsumiki your older sister?" You directed your gentle question to Megumi, your eyes locked onto his emerald gaze. He gave a slight nod before responding, "She takes care of the both of us, but we're not related."
Your warm response held the wisdom of your own experiences. "You don't have to be related to be siblings. If she's the one who's been taking care of you, then you're siblings." You looked up at Tsumiki, her long brown hair softly blowing in the wind as she observed the situation from above.
Tsumiki appeared to be around Megumi's age, perhaps a year older or so, and her maturity tugged at your heart. You understood the difficulties of taking on a parental role for your siblings, but she was far too young to be in such a situation. In that moment, you made up your mind; you wouldn't dare separate the two.
With a sense of empathy and responsibility, Gojo stood up, stretching his legs. "Alrighty then, let's get down to business. What do you want to do? Do you want to go to the Zen'in family?" he posed, while you remained crouched down beside Megumi
Megumi's serious gaze lingered on you, his emerald eyes sharp and discerning. He seemed to sense your momentary fear, your [e/c] eyes reflecting a flicker of concern. "What'll happen to Tsumiki? Will she be happy if we go there? My answer depends on that," he explained, his voice reflecting a sense of responsibility and protectiveness that reminded you of your own experiences.
"No," you and Satoru responded simultaneously.
"There's absolutely no way she'll be happy if she goes there. I can guarantee that," Satoru declared, his tone filled with gravity.
Megumi's face transformed from serious consideration to a familiar anger, an emotion driven by the desire to protect his sibling. It resonated with your own determination to shield those you cared about from harm.
Gojo chuckled, a lightness returning to the situation. "Heh heh, that settles it. You two are coming with us," he declared, playfully ruffling Megumi's obsidian locks.
With your heart brimming with resolve and love, you gently held his shoulder. "Megumi, I promise to give you and Tsumiki all the love and joy I possibly can," you softly professed. You extended your pinky finger, a symbol of your unbreakable vow, wrapping it around his smaller one as your eyes shined with unwavering determination.
Megumi's small smile mirrored your own as he wrapped his pinky finger around yours. The soft, gentle contact felt like a promise of security and affection, rekindling a sense of maternal warmth in his heart. In this heartfelt gesture, it was as if a new chapter was beginning, filled with the hope and reassurance that you would provide for both him and Tsumiki. It was a small yet profound moment of connection, signifying the start of a new family.
β€”β€”β€”β€”β€”β€”β€”β€”β€”β€”β€”β€”β€”β€”β€”β€”
In the near-empty apartment, you gently addressed Tsumiki and Megumi, your concern for them evident in your soft-spoken words. "Is this everything?" you asked, casting a caring gaze around the room.
The siblings nodded in agreement, their young faces reflecting the stark simplicity of their surroundings. Your heart ached, seeing their lives echoing your own challenging childhood.
"Are you two hungry?" you continued, and they exchanged glances before responding with a quiet "yes." You couldn't help but smile, your heart brimming with warmth at the thought of caring for these children. "Alrighty then," you said, standing up. "We can go out for dinner on our way home. Would you like to hold my hand?" Your gentle inquiry conveyed your sincerity and your readiness to provide them with the support they deserved.
As you reached out, both Tsumiki and Megumi took your hands with an earnest nod. The bond forming between you felt stronger with every passing moment, and you couldn't help but feel that, even with the challenges ahead, you were on the right path.
Satoru watched the three of you with pride and affection, knowing that this journey you were embarking on was filled with uncertainty, but it was also marked by love, commitment, and the promise of a brighter future for these two young souls who had endured so much.
With Tsumiki and Megumi in tow, you left the apartment behind, the doors closing on a chapter of your life and opening to the next, where love, family, and the responsibilities that came with them awaited you.
β€œAren’t you two a little young to be married and let alone adopting children?” Megumi blankly stated before slurping up his udon, gazing at both of you with an unblinking stare, his inquisitive eyes betraying the maturity beyond his years. Tsumiki, sitting beside him, was caught off guard and her cheeks turned a shade of pink as she elbowed her brother playfully, a silent signal to remind him of their manners.
Your soft laughter filled the air, a warm sound that dissolved any tension his question might have caused. "Well, yes, we're young, but sometimes life takes unexpected turns," you replied with a knowing smile. "We want to make sure you two have a safe and happy home."
Megumi didn't say much more but gave a small nod, and both of them continued to eat their udon, occasionally glancing at each other and sharing unspoken thoughts. In this moment, you realized the challenges that lay ahead, not only in raising them but also in helping them adapt to their new lives. Yet, you were determined to face it all with love and understanding.
As the dinner continued, you found yourself engaging in more casual conversation with the two children. You learned about their likes, dislikes, and interests, all while sharing stories from your own childhood. Despite their initial apprehension, it was clear that they were beginning to feel more at ease in your presence.
Tsumiki talked about her love for drawing, especially the beautiful sunsets she had seen from their apartment window. You encouraged her to keep drawing and promised to help her get art supplies. Megumi, on the other hand, was a bit more reserved, but he opened up about his fascination with animals, particularly dogs. You and Satoru exchanged knowing glances; it was a conversation that hinted at possible future discussions about getting a pet.
The meal ended with smiles, and as you walked back home, the children held your hands tightly, their trust in you growing with every step.
Once home, they settled into their new rooms, a bit apprehensive but also curious. You tucked them into bed, and as you kissed their foreheads goodnight, Tsumiki smiled sleepily, "I think we'll be happy here."
You whispered back, "We'll do our best to make sure of it."
The bonds of your new family were beginning to form, and the challenges ahead seemed less daunting as you faced them together.
β€”β€”β€”β€”β€”β€”β€”β€”β€”β€”β€”β€”β€”β€”β€”β€”
Two weeks had passed quicker than you anticipated. The clock on the wall read well past midnight as you and Satoru sat at the small dinner table. The air around you felt tense and heavy with the implications of the contract spread out before you. The kids were sound asleep, unaware of the decisions being made on their behalf.
Your finger traced the sentences of the contract, and Satoru's furrowed brows mirrored your concern. Every word felt like a heavy weight, but what worried you most was the glaring omission in the document concerning Tsumiki.
You anxiously noted the missing information, concern etched across your face. "[Name] Gojo will relinquish her sorcerer duties to raise Megumi Fushiguro. Once he’s deemed fit to begin training and studying full time, [Name] Gojo will be required to take any mission the special counsel gives her. But why isn't there anything in here about Tsumiki?"
Satoru shared your unease. "They probably overlooked it. I'll sort this out with them. We're taking responsibility for both of them, and they need to know that."
You let out a sigh, comforted by his resolve. Despite the tension in the air, you knew that Satoru was unwavering in his commitment to the children's well-being.
β€”β€”β€”β€”β€”β€”β€”β€”β€”β€”β€”β€”β€”β€”β€”β€”
In a dimly lit, austere room, Satoru sat across from the special counsel. The atmosphere was thick with tension as they explained why they had omitted Tsumiki from the contract.
"Miss Tsumiki has no value to us as she's not a curse user," one of the council members stated, their tone unyielding.
Satoru leaned forward, his voice cold with determination. "That's irrelevant. Both Megumi and Tsumiki are under the care of myself and my wife. As the head of the Gojo clan, I refuse to come to an agreement until their status is clear."
The special counsel members exchanged glances but eventually gave in to his demand. "Fine, both children will be recognized under the care of [Name] Gojo. However, there is one condition. Once Tsumiki is older, [Name] Gojo must return to her duties part-time."
Satoru began to object, but the special counsel silenced him with a stern look. "Remember, Satoru, the only reason your wife was granted status in Japan and Yaga was funded to find good homes for her younger siblings was due to our sponsorship. She has a duty to fulfill."
Satoru gritted his teeth, his frustration evident. They had him cornered, and he knew he couldn't argue further. "Very well, but once she's old enough, and only part-time," he agreed, albeit reluctantly.
The special counsel nodded in approval, and the matter seemed settled, but he couldn't help but feel uneasy about the consequences this condition might have on you.
Satoru's body tensed as he contemplated the implications of the special counsel's conditions. In the dimly lit room, beads of sweat formed on his forehead, and his jaw clenched so hard it hurt. The anxiety in the air was palpable, thick and suffocating.
With clenched fists and gritted teeth, he imagined the counsel's sinister influence seeping into every corner of your lives. The thought of you working under their watchful eyes filled him with dread. He had witnessed firsthand how they manipulated situations, and he couldn't bear the idea of you becoming another pawn in their dangerous game.
The city's lights outside the window seemed to taunt him, each one representing a different threat, a different move by this shadowy adversary. He knew this battle was far from over, and the tense atmosphere in the room mirrored the battle raging in his mind.
As Satoru entered the cozy living room, the weight of the meeting still pressing on his shoulders, he was met with your warm embrace. Your arms wrapped around him, and the softness of your hug offered a moment of respite.
"Everything will be okay," you whispered reassuringly, your voice a soothing balm to his tired soul. It was as if your words carried the power to dispel the darkness that clung to him. The laundry you had been folding lay forgotten, replaced by the comfort of this embrace.
Laying in bed, you both found solace in the soft, silvery embrace of moonlight filtering through the blinds. The gentle glow bathed Satoru's pure white locks, giving him an almost ethereal appearance.
"They agreed to let us care for both of them," Satoru began, his voice a calming presence in the stillness of the night, "but there's a condition. When Tsumiki gets older, you'll have to go back to working part-time."
As he spoke, his fingers traced soothing circles on your hips, their warmth and tenderness filling the room with a sense of shared vulnerability and understanding. "That's all?" You chuckled nervously, but the tension in the room couldn't be ignored.
"[Name], you have to understand," Satoru's voice was heavy with gravity, "the higher-ups, they're just as ruthless as those who sent Toji after your family."
As the words hung in the air, the weight of the dangerous world you both inhabited pressed upon you, a reminder that even in your quest to provide a loving home for the children, you couldn't escape the shadows of your past.
You nestled into the warmth of your husband's body, his embrace a comforting shield against the uncertainties that loomed. A heavy sigh escaped your lips, and you planted a tender kiss on his chest.
"I know," you murmured, your voice filled with the weight of your past. "It's not every day that someone contacts the head of a gang to find a sixteen-year-old with healing powers."
Your ring barring hand moved to caress his flawless cheek as you continued, your words brimming with the depth of your emotions. "Back then, all I wanted was for my siblings to live safe, happy lives. I had to let them go for that to happen. And then I met you. I fell in love, and now we're married, with two kids under our care. The dream I'd long forgotten had come true before I even realized it."
You paused, gazing into his eyes with sincerity. "There will always be a give and take, but if it's for you and the kids, I'm more than happy to oblige. We've come this far together, and we'll face whatever comes our way together too."
In the quiet of your shared bedroom, where only the soft moonlight bore witness to your conversation, Satoru felt a renewed sense of admiration for your strength and devotion. Your willingness to make sacrifices for the family you had come to cherish moved him deeply. He pressed a gentle kiss to your forehead, and as he held you close, his heart swelled with love for the incredible woman who had become his partner in life.
It was in moments like this, in the stillness of the night, that he realized how fortunate he was to have you by his side, facing both the challenges and joys of the future together.

Violet eyes shrinking in horror once more as Suguru pushed past the heavy double doors of the church. His gaze immediately locked on his best friend. Satoru was sorrowfully carrying Riko's lifeless body towards him, a white sheet draped over her, while white-gown-clad church members smiled and clapped in an unsettling celebration.
"Satoru? Is that you?" Suguru shakily questioned as his longtime friend neared him. "Looks like you saw Shoko," Satoru noted as his gaze lingered behind Suguru in search of you.
"Yeah... I'm fine. (Name) isβ€”" Suguru paused, his voice faltering as his violet eyes clouded over in dismay. His mind flashed back to the moment he was dragging the two of you towards the medical sector in search of Shoko.
"Suguru... we have to help Satoru," you wearily murmured as blood rushed past your lips, and coughs wracked your fragile frame.
"Shoko's doing everything she can to help her," Suguru replied, his voice heavy with sadness as his eyes caught Riko's lifeless hand falling out from underneath the covering.
"I'm the one who messed up," Satoru regretfully remarked, a pitiful sigh escaping his lips. The atmosphere in the room was heavy with grief and despair. Satoru's voice quivered as he made a grim suggestion, his eyes reflecting the pain that weighed down his heart. "Should we kill them all? The way I am right now, I wouldn't feel a thing."
Suguru, ever the voice of reason, shook his head slowly, his expression a mix of sadness and understanding. "No," he began, his voice low and filled with sorrow, "it would be pointless. We, as Jujutsu Sorcerers, must always have a reason."
With a heavy heart, Suguru reached for Riko's lifeless form in Satoru's arms. The two of them were caught in a painful moment of loss and helplessness, the significance of the situation weighing heavily on their souls.
Suguru tried to offer Satoru some consolation. "Go see Shoko," he advised, his voice gentle but laden with sorrow. "She'll help you once she's done with (Name)." The room held a sense of profound grief and despair as they grappled with their losses and the harsh reality of their world.
β€”β€”β€”β€”β€”β€”β€”β€”β€”β€”β€”β€”β€”β€”β€”β€”-
Satoru returned to school with a heavy heart. Guilt gnawed at him as he entered the med sector. His gaze fell upon you, and a deep sense of remorse washed over him. You lay in the bed, looking incredibly frail, your face pallid, and red splotches of pain marring your cheeks. Each slow and labored breath you took felt like a dagger in his chest.
His fingers hesitated above your limp hand, the guilt making it hard to bring himself to touch you. Just then, the door to the room creaked open, and Satoru turned to see Shoko entering.
"The blade that pierced through her chest had been tipped with poison," Shoko explained as she walked out of the storage closet, a pack of cigarettes in hand. Her words struck Satoru like a blow to the chest. "I've done all I can for her," she continued, her voice grave. "She's strong, though. I'll patch you up when I come back."
With those words, Shoko turned and exited the room, leaving Satoru alone with you. The weight of his guilt and the uncertainty of your condition hung in the air as he stood by your side.
Satoru was surprised when he arrived at the medical ward as usual, only to find your bed empty. Suguru had been sent on a mission, so he was alone. Shoko approached him, seeming to anticipate his concern.
"Yaga moved her back to her room this morning," Shoko informed him, her tone calm and professional. "Her wounds have completely healed. We're just waiting for her fever to break."
Satoru watched her walk off to the storage room. The news was somewhat of a relief, yet anxiety still gnawed at him, wondering how you were faring in your room. Quickly finding himself in an unexpected position, holding a tray of medical supplies in his arms, as Shoko suggested he go check on you.
"Why me?" He quirked an eyebrow at her, not exactly known for his caregiving skills.
"Because you care about her," Shoko replied matter-of-factly. "She's comfortable with you around. Now go."
Satoru sighed and made his way towards your room. This was not a situation he was accustomed to. But he couldn't deny that he cared about you, perhaps more than he'd care to admit.
Opening your door with a hesitancy he didn't usually experience. Inside, Satoru found you, lying still in your bed. As he got closer, he couldn't help but notice the returning color to your cheeks. The slow, steady rise and fall of your chest was a reassuring sight, and he took a deep breath, feeling a hint of relief.
Moving a chair next to your bed, he took a seat and set the tray of supplies aside, before watching over you. It was an unfamiliar situation for him. He wasn't used to caring for someone in this way. Satoru's usual self-confidence wavered as he sat there, silently willing your fever to break and for you to awaken.
He continued to remain in your room as the minutes stretching into hours. His usually composed exterior concealed the swirl of emotions he felt as he kept a vigilant eye on your peacefully resting form.
In a moment of somber realization, Satoru sat alone in your room, his gaze methodically moving across the minimalistic decor. It was a room void of the usual family photos and mementos, and that absence spoke volumes about the painful truth. His knowledge of the tragic night when Toji Fushiguro had brutally taken your parents' lives and nearly claimed your own had added a heavy layer of understanding to the room's emptiness.
As his piercing aquamarine eyes roamed your room, he couldn't help but marvel at your tenacity. You had faced the man who'd slaughtered your family and tried to take your life a second time. It was a story that gave new meaning to the word "strong."
Satoru found himself contemplating the meaning of strength. Until now, he had often defined it by raw power and cursed techniques, but your story had offered a different perspective. He couldn't help but have newfound respect for those he had once deemed weak. In your courage and resilience, he discovered the true essence of strength – the ability to confront the darkest aspects of life and emerge stronger.
The minimalistic decor of your room, the stark emptiness, seemed to resonate with the profound void that your heart might have felt after losing your family. The room felt almost too quiet, a stillness that mirrored the absence of those you loved. Yet, amidst this emptiness, a childishly decorated picture frame on your nightstand drew Satoru's attention.
As he picked up the frame and gazed at the photo within, a subtle, melancholic smile graced his lips. The picture showed you, your face lit up with pure joy, alongside two other children who were clearly not related by blood. Yet, the bond you shared in the photo was unmistakable. He assumed these must be your siblings despite the lack of any family resemblance.
It was an image of carefree happiness, the three of you captured at a lake, enjoying a beautiful day together. The laughter and pure joy on your faces were infectious. In that single photo, Satoru saw the essence of what you had been fighting for – a world where such moments of happiness and innocence could be preserved.
As Satoru sat by your side, a sudden, painful moan escaped your lips, immediately snapping his full attention back to you. He carefully set the picture frame aside and brought the back of his hand to your forehead, checking your temperature.
His brow furrowed with concern as he noted your fever was still elevated. He reached for the cooling towel that lay nearby and gently placed it on your forehead. He planned to change it shortly when a sharp gasp from you made him pause.
In an instant, his silent prayers were answered. Your eyes sprang open, still dark and hazy with sleep, but it was a sight that filled Satoru with immense relief.
"[Name], you're awake," he whispered, his voice laced with both surprise and happiness.
Concern filled his bright blue eyes as he noticed the panic in yours, and soon it was replaced by pure fear. He was about to ask if you were okay when you suddenly threw your arms around him.
"You're alive, Satoru..." you sobbed as you tightly held onto him, your cries quickly reminding him of the horrifying events that unfolded three days ago.
Satoru's heart skipped a beat at the mix of relief and fear in your actions. His arms slowly encircled you, holding you close. He knew that he had survived Toji's brutal attack, but the pain and trauma from that experience still lingered. In this moment, you were his lifeline, grounding him in the present.
"I'm here," he whispered, his voice trembling with raw emotion, as he gently stroked your back. "I'm alive, and so are you."
Your [e/c] eyes filled with fear, and your heart raced as you anxiously questioned, "Where's Suguru? Did Toji get away?" Your breaths came out in frantic, panicked pants.
Satoru, with a protective instinct, pulled you even closer while you were already sitting in his lap. He held you tightly, his voice a reassuring anchor amidst the chaos. "Suguru's fine," he said with a calm yet comforting tone. "I took care of Toji."
You felt a mix of emotions flooding through you, and your voice trembled as you questioned, "Toji, is he...?" The words trailed off, the unspoken fear still lingering.
Satoru nodded reassuringly, confirming your unspoken fears. "He's gone."
Relief washed over you, and you felt tears of gratitude welling up in your [e/c] eyes. "Thank you," you whispered, your voice filled with a mix of emotions, grateful that your friends were safe. In that moment, you clung to Satoru, thankful for his presence and protection, and the world began to regain its balance.
The atmosphere in the room shifted as you became more aware of your position. Flustered and embarrassed, you couldn't help but take note of the way his arms held you securely. Cheeks burning as you glanced down at the situation, realizing you were nestled in the crook of his neck, perched atop his lap.
Lifting your head slowly, you met Satoru's gaze, his aquamarine eyes filled with a mix of emotions. Your cheeks flushed, and you stammered, "I'm so sorry, Satoru, I didn't mean to... I mean, I didn't realize..."
He interrupted with a soft chuckle, "No need to apologize, [Name]. You just woke up, and you were scared. It's completely understandable.” A mix of embarrassment and gratitude washed over you as he continued to hold you in his strong, reassuring arms.
Satoru's thoughts were in turmoil as he held you close, your presence stirring something deep within him. He couldn't quite explain why he felt such a strong connection to you, drawn by an inexplicable warmth that seemed to radiate from your very being. But for now, he kept those feelings to himself, silently relishing the simple pleasure of having you safe in his arms.
β€”β€”β€”β€”β€”β€”β€”β€”β€”β€”β€”β€”β€”β€”β€”β€”
A whole year of intense training had passed, during which you, Satoru, Shoko, and Suguru had dedicated yourselves to honing your jujutsu skills. Under the guidance of the skilled Satoru Gojo, you had not only become proficient but had also developed a deeper understanding of your abilities. Days filled with relentless practice and nights of studying had gone by in a flash, and your progress was evident.
During this year, you had not only grown more powerful but also closer to Satoru. His expert guidance had become a beacon of inspiration for your development. You admired him not only for his incredible powers but also for the warmth he carried around him, a stark contrast to his often cheeky and carefree exterior. Your training sessions often felt more like bonding moments, and you had shared stories, laughter, and even moments of vulnerability.
Satoru's eyes twinkled with a mischievous glint as he stood before you, instructing the three of you to throw the stationary items you held at him, you and Shoko exchanged glances, a mix of excitement and curiosity in your eyes.
With a synchronized motion, you, Shoko, and Suguru hurled your items toward Satoru. What followed was nothing short of spectacular. Each item you threw hit an invisible barrier, stopped in its tracks. Your amazement was undeniable, and an enthusiastic "Wow!" escaped both you and Shoko as you witnessed this incredible display of power.
Satoru couldn't hide his cheeky grin as he revealed his ability to use Limitless nearly constantly. It was an awe-inspiring feat, but Shoko couldn't help but voice her concern. "You're gonna fry your brain like that," she skeptically noted.
Satoru, however, remained carefree and confident as ever. "I can also use my reverse curse technique around the clock, so I’ll always have a fresh brain," he cheekily informed you all.
"Now, [Name], show them what you've been working on," Satoru encouraged as he gestured for you to come forward. With a deep breath, you knelt down, placing your hands on the dry, dusty ground. A tingling sensation surged through your fingers as you channeled your curse energy.
In an instant, the earth beneath you transformed, blooming with fresh and vibrant flowers. Their sweet scent filled the air, intoxicatingly delightful, and Shoko and Suguru couldn't resist the allure of the blossoms. They happily walked among the vibrant petals, brushing them with their hands. Laughter bubbled from their lips as they fell to the ground, rolling in the flower-filled field, their giggles of joy filling the air. It was as if they'd been transported to a dreamlike meadow.
With a gentle smile, you ceased using your technique. The intoxicating haze of the flowers lifted, and Shoko and Suguru gradually returned to their senses. Their dreamy expressions transformed into confusion, and they jointly asked, "What just happened?"
"It's my ability! I can create a field of intoxicating flowers that will distract and, hopefully one day, subdue my opponent," you cheerfully explained, your newfound abilities a testament to your dedication and growth over the past year
Giggling as Shoko hugged you tight, she praised you, "Great job, my little [Name." Her laughter filling the warm summers air as she added, "Apparently, that idiot can actually teach, who would've thought?"
Satoru, annoyed by her playful jab, retorted quickly. The two of you shared a giggle, relishing the camaraderie. After slipping out of Shoko's hold, you made your way toward Suguru.
"Great job, [Name]," Suguru tenderly praised as he gently placed his hand atop your head. You flashed him a warm smile, feeling deeply grateful for the support from your friends.
"I couldn't have done any of this without you guys," you confessed, recognizing the integral role your friends played in your growth as a Jujutsu Sorcerer.
For a split second, you saw longing in Suguru's eyes. Concerned, you asked, "Are you okay, Suguru?" His blank gaze made you worry even more.
"Do you enjoy being a Jujutsu Sorcerer?" Suguru's quiet question hung in the air. His hand moved down, gently caressing your cheek before falling to his side. "Of course I do," you replied, concern evident in your tone as you met his gaze with your [e/c] eyes. "I'm able to learn and grow with all of you while helping those who are within my reach." You wanted to reassure him.
"You've lost weight. I know something's up. Talk to me," you tenderly offered, urging him to share his burdens.
"It's been extra hot out lately. I guess I'm just tired from the heat," Suguru softly answered. A wistful smile pulled at his lips before he turned to make his way back toward the dorms.
Your stomach twisted with knots as you watched him walk away, sensing that something was bothering your friend. Satoru couldn't help but notice the exchange between the two of you. His sharp eyes missed very little, and he had observed the conversation with a knowing look in his aquamarine irises.
As Suguru walked away, Satoru sauntered over to you with his usual swagger. "Something on Suguru's mind?" he inquired, leaning in closer, his breath warm against your ear, tone low and suggestive.
You sighed, your shoulders drooping as you glanced back in Suguru's direction. "I'm not sure. He's been acting strange lately, and I can't help but feel like he's hiding something. He said it's just the heat, but I don't think that's the real issue. Could you talk to him?”
Satoru, with a wry grin, responded, "Oh, don't you worry. I'll have a little chat with him. Suguru's a stubborn guy, but he can't resist the charm of yours truly."
His confidence was almost infectious, and you chuckled at his casual cockiness. "Thanks, Satoru. I appreciate it."
With that, he strolled away, headed in the direction Suguru had gone. You watched him for a moment before heading back towards the dorms, your mind filled with a mix of curiosity and concern.
β€”β€”β€”β€”β€”β€”β€”β€”β€”β€”β€”β€”β€”β€”β€”β€”
It was your first day alone in the medical sector, Shoko being away on a mission. The weight of responsibility pressed heavily on your shoulders as you tried to maintain your composure.
As you prepared the metal table with a heavy heart, the room felt stifling. Shoko had taught you well, but today was a grim test of your abilities. The pale, lifeless figure of Haibara lay before you, a cruel reminder of the unforgiving world of curses.
Nanami, known for his calm and collected demeanor, had slumped into a chair, the loss of his best friend clearly shattering his composure. "Damn it, it was supposed to be a simple grade 2 curse..." his voice trembled with regret and anger. The weight of what had happened hung heavily on him, and you couldn't help but feel a deep sorrow for the man who had always been there to help you.
Suguru, too, bore a heavy heart.This loss had struck at the very core of your group, a stark reminder of the dangerous world you lived in. It was a somber moment, and as you prepared to do everything you could for your fallen comrade, a profound sadness settled over you all.
Your hands moved with a practiced precision as you began your work. As you operated, the memory of your younger brother, his kindness and innocence flashing before your eyes, creating a lump in your throat. You pushed your emotions aside, concentrating on piecing together what remained.
The room felt heavy with grief as you and Suguru worked together, covering Haibara with a white sheet. Suguru taking the initiative to gently suggest to Nanami, "Go get some rest, Nanami. Gojo is taking care of it."
Nanami, still overwhelmed by the loss of his friend, sighed heavily. "Why doesn't Gojo just take care of everything on his own? He's the strongest, after all."
As you washed your hands, you couldn't help but wonder to yourself, "Must he shoulder everything?" You knew Nanami’s words held no malice, but it left you wondering what being the strongest truly entailed in the world of Jujutsu Sorcerers.

β€œAfter Geto's curse exorcism mission, there was no one left alive in the village. Evidence of Suguru's curse technique and its residuals were found at the scene. These disturbing events have led to him being labeled as a curse user, now facing execution.”
Yaga's grim revelation sent a shiver down your spine. You and Satoru exchanged incredulous glances. "What?" Satoru questioned, his voice filled with disbelief.
Yaga continued, "From the looks of it, his parents' home is also empty, and with the leftover remains we found, it appears he had done the same to them as the villagers." He concluded with a heavy sigh.
Your stomach coiled with dread, as you hurried down the hall and out of the doors, yearning for the solace of fresh air. It was hard to comprehend the shocking revelation about one of your most trusted friends. The information swirled chaotically in your mind, leaving you feeling uneasy, was it really the Suguru you knew who had committed such a heinous act?
The weight of everything that had transpired since your move to Japan suddenly bore down on you as you rushed back to your dorm room; found your running shoes, quickly changed, and headed to one of the parks Suguru had shown you on one of your off days. His words from that day echoing in your mind as you rushed there.
"The next time I come here, I'll have made my decision."
You were nearly out of breath as you raced around the expansive park, tall green trees surrounded you as their leaves blew peacefully in the wind.
"Hey [Name]," Suguru softly greeted as he approached you from behind. Tears welled up in your eyes; your friend looked so different from who you had come to know and love. His usual warm violet eyes were now dark and distant. Tears welled up in your eyes as you questioned him, "Did you really do it?"
The silence hung in the air for a moment before Suguru let out a heavy sigh, "It was me”
His confirmation sent fear coursing through your veins. Suguru had always been the voice of reason, the one who showed kindness even to those who didn't deserve it. You had looked up to him as a pillar of strength and morality, and now, that image was shattered.
β€œYour own parents? How could you, Suguru?" Your voice quivered, laced with a mix of disbelief and sorrow.
Suguru's eyes, once warm and kind, now seemed cold and distant. "I want to create a world of only Jujutsu Sorcerers. Those who can evolve and awaken their curse energy should survive, and those who can't... they don't belong. My parents couldn't be exceptions if I was going to make this a reality."
Your voice cracked as the painful memories rushed back. "You've seen how cruel and painful it is. I had to witness both my parents get murdered and endure near-fatal injuries to awaken my curse energy. How can you be so heartless, especially to your own parents?"
The park's serene surroundings felt like a surreal backdrop for this heart-wrenching conversation. Suguru's indifference contrasted sharply with the peaceful nature that surrounded you.
"To live in a world without curses... a world of true peace," Suguru began, attempting to rationalize his actions.
But you couldn't accept this justification. "I understand that our lives as Jujutsu Sorcerers are filled with pain and far from fair," you said, your voice steady, "but I've also seen human lives that endure their own forms of cruelty. It's not for us to pass judgment on the innocent. Our existence is simply the luck of the draw."
As your words hung in the air, it was clear that Suguru's path and your beliefs had irrevocably diverged.
"Please don't go," you tearfully pleaded, your voice barely above a whisper. But Suguru had already turned his back to you, and he walked away, disappearing into the bustling city streets.
β€”β€”β€”β€”β€”β€”β€”β€”β€”β€”β€”β€”β€”β€”β€”β€”
Returning to campus as the sun began to set, you were greeted by Satoru as he waited for you by the gate. The two of you walked back toward your dorm in heavy silence, the weight of Suguru's defection pressing on your shoulders like an unbearable load.
Standing by your dorm room door, you turned to face Satoru, your eyes reflecting a storm of emotions. Tears welled up in your [e/c] eyes, and your voice quivered as you made a heartfelt promise. "Satoru, I promise... I'll bear the burdens that I can for you," you confessed, your voice heavy with the weight of the situation and your determination to support him. Tears streamed down your [s/t] cheeks, revealing the depth of your commitment.
Satoru's tender, teasing voice reached your ears. "You're such a crybaby, [Name]," he remarked as he gently wiped the tears from your face, his touch reassuring and affectionate. Then, he enveloped you in his arms, and your body instinctively relaxed into his embrace. In that moment, he buried his face in the crook of your neck, and you reciprocated by hugging him back, finding comfort in his closeness.
The warmth of your connection, the tears, and the shared pain all formed a powerful bond between you two. It was as though your hearts were intertwined, providing solace and understanding in the face of the overwhelming future that lay ahead.

"Thank you so much for watching them on my day off, Mrs. Johnson," you graciously expressed your gratitude as you dropped your siblings off at the daycare. They left you with quick kisses on your cheeks before eagerly running off towards their friends, excitement filling their faces.
Mrs. Johnson, the daycare owner, smiled warmly and pulled you in for a quick hug. "It's no problem, my dear. We're all rooting for you to get that scholarship!" Her motherly warmth and support provided you with that extra strength and determination to move forward with your decision.
You couldn't shake off a slight feeling of guilt as you made your way towards the bus stop, knowing you had lied to Mrs. Johnson. But you kept reminding yourself that you didn't have much of a choice. If things worked out as you hoped, you'd be earning money that could provide a brighter future for you and your siblings, even if it meant venturing into the unknown world of sorcerers and black markets.
Fear coursed through your veins like ice as you arrived at the seemingly dingy warehouse. Every instinct in your body screamed at you to turn around and run as far away as possible. Doubts and anxieties gnawed at your resolve, but then the images of your beloved siblings flashed through your mind, giving you the strength and determination to push forward, no matter how daunting this situation appeared.
At exactly the stroke of three, you knocked on the door. A tall, bald man who looked to be in his thirties greeted you in a fine pressed black suit, but his initial reaction was far from welcoming. He muttered a few expletives as he peered down at you. "Surname," you shakily introduced yourself, extending your hand.
He rolled his eyes, barely acknowledging your introduction, and pulled you inside with a firm grip on your wrist. In a hurry, he led you down a sterile hallway, and two automatic doors opened as you approached a single bed.
With some hesitation, you approached the bed where a man with a severe wound lay. You focused your energy, hands glowing faintly as you placed them over the injury. Slowly, you channeled your power into the wound, and as you did, the flesh started to regenerate.
Exhaustion began to take its toll as you pushed your healing abilities to the limit. You had managed to close around 80% of the man’s wounds, but the strain on your own body became too much. Your legs gave out from under you, and you crumpled to the ground, breathing heavily.
Gaku's grip was unyielding as he yanked you up by your arm, his tone harsh. "Do a half-ass job, and you won't get paid, kid," he snapped, his impatience evident as he tried to get you back on your feet.
Suddenly, the man on the bed, Hiroki, spoke up, his voice a bit groggy but assertive. "Gaku, let go of the girl, you hardass."
Gaku grumbled and reluctantly released his hold on your arm, allowing you to regain your footing, albeit unsteadily.
"I've got business to attend to," Gaku grumbled, then turned and left the room.
Hiroki extended a hand. "Sorry about him. You've got some serious skills, kid. Thanks for patching me up."
Your fingers tremble slightly as you moved to shake his hand. "You're welcome. Just give me a minute, and I promise I'll finish. By the way, I'm [Name]." You panted as you tried to catch your breath.
"Hiroki. Call me Hiroki." He offered you a warm smile, taking your hand, his grasp reassuring but gentle. Nodding in agreement, understanding the strain you must be under.
"Take your time, [Name]. I'm grateful for your help."
After a few moments to catch your breath, you returned to your task, focusing intently on healing Hiroki's wounds. Despite the fatigue, your sense of responsibility drove you forward. Hiroki watched with gratitude in his eyes as you worked.
Gaku had returned shortly after, standing nearby, his initial irritation fading as he observed your determination. "Impressive," he muttered under his breath.
Drenched in sweat, you collapsed to your knees, desperately trying to catch your breath. Hiroki, now mostly healed, noticed your struggle and quickly helped you to your feet.
He chuckled heartily as he lifted you onto a nearby leather couch. "You're pretty strong, kid. With some training, you could become our organization's after hours healer," he suggested with a friendly grin. Beside you, Gaku handed Hiroki a sports drink and a water bottle, then placed them on the side table next to you.
Sitting there, recharged from the drinks, you made your decision. "I'll take the position, but only if you ensure my siblings' safety while I'm working," you asserted, your resolve evident as you looked from one man to the other.
Hiroki seemed amused by your determination. "What makes you so sure we're capable of doing that?" he challenged, his voice carrying a hint of amusement.
You met his gaze confidently. "Your people found me without much effort, leaving no trace except for what you wanted them to leave behind," you explained, your analytical mind at work
Impressed by both your strength and intellect, Hiroki chuckled, "Sharp as a tack, too. You'll go far, kid." He readily agreed to your terms, recognizing your worth.
Gratitude painted a smile across your lips as you shook his hand in agreement. But the thought of being late for the bus suddenly made you flustered.
Hiroki reassured you, "Relax, kid. Now that you work for us, we'll pick you up and drop you off to and from work." Proceeding to fetch your payment.
After everything, Gaku made sure to drop you off near the daycare. Quickly making your way inside. Mrs. Johnson was there to greet you with her warm smile.
"Ah, there you are, [Name]," she said. "How did everything go?"
With enthusiasm, you took a seat on a nearby bench and shared your exciting news, "You'll never guess, they were so impressed by my grades and story that they actually want to sponsor me for extracurricular classes outside of school on top of giving me the scholarship!”
"That's incredible news, my dear," Mrs. Johnson joyfully responded, taking a seat next to you. Her voice was soft and gentle, reminiscent of your mother's. She sensed there was something more and added, "I assume you're going to have to quit, huh?"
You let out a sigh and gazed down at your feet, tears welling up in your eyes. The daycare and everyone there had been like a second home for you, and you'd grown attached to the sense of tranquility and safety it provided.
You nodded, your voice heavy with emotion, "Yeah." The decision weighed on you, knowing you'd be leaving behind the comfort of your current job for something more dangerous and unpredictable. Yet, the financial stability and power it offered were too good to pass up if it meant you’d stay with your siblings.
β€œYou’re more than welcome to drop the kids off anytime you need to study, free of charge” Mrs. Johnson softly offered as you pulled you in for one final hug.
The relief of having the three of you safely home was immeasurable. Taking care of your siblings, ensuring they were well-fed and comfortably tucked into bed. When you finally had a moment to yourself, you counted the money in sheer disbelief – a grand total of five thousand dollars.
Your heart swelled with the realization that your dream of adopting your siblings and creating a loving, stable family was closer to becoming a reality. Tears of joy welled up in your eyes as you imagined the bright future ahead.
β€”β€”β€”β€”β€”β€”β€”β€”β€”β€”β€”β€”β€”β€”β€”β€”
The weight of the past was taking its toll on you as the anniversary of the invasion neared, causing restless nights filled with nightmares that left you exhausted. Gaku noticed the change in your demeanor and handed you an iced coffee, his gruff voice softening.
"What's wrong, kid?" he asked as you leaned back against the plush leather couch, exhaustion evident in the dark circles under your eyes.
Taking a deep breath, you inquired, "You helped Hiroki with my file, right?"
"Yeah, what of it?" Gaku responded in his usual straightforward manner, his tone no longer intimidating you, having grown accustomed to it.
"Then you two must know why I'm an orphan and in the position I'm in now," you said, your tired [e/c] eyes staring at the ceiling.
"Get to the point, kid”
You hesitated briefly before confessing, "I want to know why my family was targeted that night." Your eyes briefly drifted shut as you said it, the question that had haunted you for years finally finding a voice.
Gaku regarded you as you lay there on the couch, visibly tired and weighed down by the haunting memories of the past. He leaned against the doorframe, his dark eyes assessing your request. A moment of silence hung in the air, only the distant hum of the city breaking it.
Finally, he broke the silence, his voice more thoughtful. "If there's anyone who can find out why your family was targeted that night, it's Hiroki." Gaku's gaze softened slightly, perhaps in a rare moment of empathy. "He's got connections and resources we can use to dig into the past."
You looked at him with a mixture of gratitude and uncertainty. "You really think he'll help?"
Gaku pushed away from the doorframe, straightening his tie. "He's a pragmatic guy, but he's got a soft spot for a sob story like yours. He'll be here tonight, so you can ask him about it."
As Gaku left, disappearing into the night to attend to his own mysterious business, you couldn't help but feel a glimmer of hope. Maybe, just maybe, you'd uncover the truth behind that fateful night.
β€”β€”β€”β€”β€”β€”β€”β€”β€”β€”β€”β€”β€”β€”β€”β€”
The room was dimly lit, and the air was heavy with the scent of cigars. You took a deep breath and finally knocked on the imposing oak door. "Hi, Hiroki, it's me," you softly announced, the trepidation evident in your voice.
"Come in, kiddo," Hiroki replied from inside, his tone surprisingly welcoming.
As you entered, he was seated behind his large mahogany desk, his sharp gaze focused on you. You settled into the chair across from him, trying to steady your racing heart. "Do you think you could look into something for me?" you inquired, your voice low but earnest.
Hiroki's expression softened as he regarded you. He leaned back in his chair and laced his fingers together, listening intently. "Go on," he encouraged.
You hesitated for a moment, then continued, your voice quivering with emotion, "You know I'm an orphan. I need to know why my family was targeted that night. I can't understand why he chose us of all people."
Silence hung in the room as Hiroki considered your request. The pale glow of his desk lamp cast shadows on his weathered face. Finally, he spoke, his tone grave, "It's a dangerous path, digging into the past. But, I can look into it for you. You need to understand, though, that sometimes answers bring more pain than closure. Are you sure you want to proceed?"
With a deep breath, you met his gaze. "I need to know the truth, no matter how painful it is. It's the only way I can move forward."
Hiroki nodded, his expression one of understanding. "Alright, kiddo, I'll do what I can. It might take some time, but I'll get back to you when I find anything."
You felt a mixture of relief and anxiety, knowing that you were now one step closer to uncovering the secrets of that tragic night.

You were quick to drop off your younger siblings with Mrs. Johnson at the daycare the following weekend, making sure they were safe and sound. You watched them for a moment, a bittersweet mix of pride and protectiveness welling up in your chest before you made your way towards the luxury black sedan.
The morning sun cast a golden hue over the city as you rode silently with Gaku to the office. Anxiety coiled tightly in your stomach, and your mind was a whirlwind of thoughts. You couldn't shake the uneasiness you felt about the conversation you were about to have with Hiroki.
As you entered the office building, your footsteps echoing in the hallway, Hiroki greeted you with a warm smile. His presence was both comforting and intimidating, creating a tumultuous mix of emotions within you. "Hey, [Name]," he said, and the knot in your stomach tightened.
With a deep breath, you followed him into his office, sitting across from Hiroki, you found yourself in a room filled with an air of somber authority. His luxurious solid mahogany desk was a formidable barrier that separated you two, and he appeared deep in thought as he scratched the back of his neck, an action that betrayed his own discomfort.
His voice broke the silence, and you listened intently as he began to unravel the unsettling truths. "Your father was a prominent congressman," he started, and you felt the weight of the revelation in those words. "At the time, he was one of the few who voted against an international tax law that would majorly favor the elites of the world."
Your heart clenched as the pieces of this dark puzzle began to fall into place. Hiroki's voice was steady, and he seemed to understand the gravity of his words. "The man who killed your parents worked on behalf of his benefactors. They instructed him to kill, not just your father, but anyone whose blood ran through their veins."
Tears welled up in your eyes as the reality of the situation bore down on you. Hiroki's empathy shone through as he handed you his pure white handkerchief, a small yet significant gesture of compassion. Then, he poured himself a stiff drink, a tacit acknowledgment of the gravity of the information shared.
The clinking of the ice in Hiroki's drink punctuated the weight of the revelation, serving as a stark reminder of the gravity of the situation. You continued to dry your eyes with the handkerchief he'd offered, doing your best to maintain composure.
Hiroki's words resonated with a chilling truth. "You weren't alone," he began, and you listened with rapt attention, "the two other congressmen who voted against the law were also killed, along with their families."
It was a horrifying revelation, a grim reminder of the ruthless lengths those in power would go to protect their interests. As Hiroki took a long swig of his drink, you could sense the deep, somber knowledge he carried.
"With you being the sole survivor of all these attacks and in foster care," he continued, "they were able to swiftly cover things up. Placing their pawns in and winning the following election."
The realization of the intricate web of deceit, power, and violence was overwhelming. You appreciated Hiroki's fatherly hand on your trembling shoulder, providing you with some semblance of comfort amid this terrible truth.

Your sixteenth birthday approached faster than you’d expected. "Happy birthday, big sister!" Your siblings cheered as they excitedly jumped onto your groggy form. You chuckled tiredly as they snuggled close, and you replied, "Thank you, my loves. Let's try and sleep a bit longer." Sharing a warm, cozy moment before sluggishly slipping out of bed, their small hands pulling you towards the kitchen.
"Surprise!" they announced as their gift for you was revealed. It was a picture frame, lovingly decorated with glitter glue, popsicle sticks, and various fake flowers. Inside the frame was your favorite photo of the three of you, taken on a sunny day during a picnic near the lake one summer evening. Tears welled up in your eyes as you thought about the hardships you had overcome together.
Just another two years, and you could ensure your siblings' safety, giving them a life filled with tranquility.
Your voice quivered with emotion as you said, "This is the most beautiful gift I've ever received. I love you both so much." Your siblings smiled, and you shared a tight, tearful hug, grateful for the strength and love that had brought you this far.
Spending your day leisurely around the house. Your little sister insisting on painting your nails, carefully selecting vibrant colors from her modest collection. As she diligently worked on your nails, your little brother took your other hand and began to give you a massage. It was a makeshift spa day, filled with giggles and shared moments that filled your heart with joy. The three of you watched your favorite TV shows, snuggled up on the couch.
"Big sister, we're going to take good care of you, just like you take care of us," your little sister said with a proud smile, finishing painting your nails.
You smiled warmly, touched by their love and thoughtfulness. "I'm the luckiest big sister in the world to have you both by my side."
Your little brother chimed in, "Happy birthday, [Name]. We love you!"
Tears of happiness welled up in your eyes as you hugged them tightly. These simple, heartfelt moments were the most precious gifts you could ever ask for, oh how you wished things could stay like this forever.
β€”β€”β€”β€”β€”β€”β€”β€”β€”β€”β€”β€”β€”β€”β€”β€”
With your siblings fast asleep, you made your way downstairs, and there, waiting for you by the front door, was Shouma. He was a tall and robust man in his early thirties, and his muscular arms were adorned with tattoos. As you gathered your belongings for your upcoming shift, you greet him β€œHey Sho.”
Shouma had become your family's protector, ensuring your parents stayed away and knew their place. He was not to be underestimated, and his presence had turned your home into a sanctuary of peace and security.
As you prepared to leave for work, Shouma placed his large, tattooed hand atop your head, offering a sense of reassurance. "Alright, I'm off," you told him, ready for your night's work.
"Happy birthday, [Name]. I'm proud of you, kid," Shouma said with a reassuring pat to your head. His words filled you with warmth and determination as you ventured out into the night.
The moment you stepped into the building, the atmosphere felt entirely different. Gaku's stoic demeanor, as always, was somewhat reassuring as the two of you proceeded down the hall toward your 'office.'
But what you encountered next was beyond your expectations. As you walked through the door, a chorus of cheers and laughter erupted.
"SURPRISE, [NAME]!" a group of grown men exclaimed in unison. Hiroki, their leader, was seated behind your desk, and a delicious birthday cake occupied the center of the room.
A mix of emotions washed over youβ€”surprise, gratitude, and the realization that you had indeed found good people in this unlikeliest of places. Tears welled up in your eyes, but a joyous smile graced your lips as you approached the desk.
Hiroki, with a warm smile, gestured for you to come forward. "Happy birthday, [Name]. We couldn't let your special day go unnoticed." The camaraderie in the room was palpable as the men celebrated your birthday, making you feel like you truly belonged.
The atmosphere in the room was filled with warmth and camaraderie as you blew out the candles on your birthday cake and wiped away the joyful tears that streamed down your cheeks. Shortly after, Hiroki called for Gaku.
"Gaku, her gift," Hiroki said, a hint of amusement in his voice. He handed you a small, solid black gift bag, and your heart fluttered with curiosity. As you reached into the bag and pulled out the gift box inside, you couldn't believe your eyes.
Inside the box were a pair of beautiful 24k solid gold hoop earrings. They glistened under the room's warm lighting, and their elegance took your breath away. Tears of gratitude welled up in your eyes as you realized how much this unexpected family meant to you.
"Thank you," you managed to whisper through the tears, unable to put into words just how deeply moved you were by their kindness. These earrings weren't just a piece of jewelry; they symbolized the bond you had found with these individuals.
After enjoying the cake and the wonderful company, Hiroki informed you that you weren't on shift that day but still assured you that you'd be paid. You politely tried to decline, but Gaku had different plans. He gently grabbed the back of your shirt and firmly stated, "Nope, you're going home for the night, kid. No use in fighting it."
With a sigh of defeat, you gathered your things. After bidding everyone goodnight, you climbed into the luxury black SUV. You were pleasantly surprised when Hiroki joined you in the second captain's chair. Gaku slowly pulled out, and the drive home through the city was filled with a sense of peace.
As the city's lights twinkled outside the window, Hiroki's deep voice broke the silence, "Is your goal still the same, [Name]?" He took a swig from his flask, and you gazed at the passing cityscape as you replied, "All I want is to give my siblings a good and stable life, one filled with love, safety, and certainty."
Hiroki chuckled, and a warm smile appeared on his face. "I have someone I need you to meet, then," he informed, piquing your curiosity and leaving you wondering about what new possibilities lay ahead.
β€”β€”β€”β€”β€”β€”β€”β€”β€”β€”β€”β€”β€”β€”β€”β€”
A few weeks passed, and you received a call from Hiroki to meet in his main office. There, you found yourself seated in front of a man with short black hair, sporting two buzzed parts that wrapped around his head.
He introduced himself as Masamichi Yaga, the principal of Jujutsu High in Tokyo, Japan. His words left you both surprised and intrigued. "I would like to adopt you and bring you to Tokyo, where you'd be able to harness your powers and become a proper Jujutsu Sorcerer," he explained, his tone firm yet inviting.
Your eyes widened at the proposition, and you felt a mix of emotions swirling inside you. The idea of harnessing your powers and becoming a sorcerer was enticing, but if it meant leaving your siblings behind, you had to refuse.
"I truly appreciate your offer," you began, your voice firm, "but I'm sure Hiroki has informed you that I have two younger siblings. I won't leave them behind. It's all three of us or none."
Yaga sighed empathetically. He admired your determination to keep your family together, but he also understood the danger you were in, considering your current line of work to provide for your siblings.
"I have no problem adopting your siblings as well, but the life of a Jujutsu sorcerer is incredibly dangerous, especially for those without powers," Yaga explained, noting the defeat in your eyes. "Even with the right contacts, your association with this line of work is putting your siblings at risk. We need to consider their safety."
Tears of frustration welled in your eyes as you grappled with a truth you had tried desperately to avoid. Despite the financial support and the sense of protection that Hiroki and Gaku's organization had provided for you and your siblings, you knew deep down that nothing in this life was permanent. Yaga's sober assessment hit home, and you realized he was ultimately right.
Without your current source of income, there was no way you could take care of your younger siblings on your own, let alone provide them with the loving, stable life you had dreamed of. The weight of this realization felt crushing, leaving you with an impossible choice to make.
As the tears streamed down your cheeks, the weight of the painful reality began to settle in. Your heart ached with the knowledge that you had to make an incredibly difficult decision – to let your younger siblings go in order to protect them. The dream of providing them with a loving, stable life felt further from reach than ever before.
Yaga, with his calm yet empathetic demeanor, understood the weight of your decision. "I know this is a lot to ask," he began, "but it's not about giving them up. It's about keeping them safe and giving them the best chance at a good life."
You nodded, struggling to regain your composure as you considered what was truly best for your siblings. Despite the tears and the turmoil inside, a glimmer of hope sparked in your eyes. While it would be incredibly painful to let them go, you understood that this might be the path to ensure their future.
Yaga's comforting hand on your trembling shoulder provided a sliver of solace in the midst of your inner turmoil. His voice was laced with sincerity as he continued, "I promise to find them a good home, one filled with love and kindness."
You swallowed hard, understanding the gravity of the situation. But as he delivered the most difficult part of the news, it felt like a dagger through your heart. "The only way I can ensure their safety is by letting them start fresh," he said somberly. "They'll get new identities, but any trace of your lives together must be wiped clean."
Tears welled up in your eyes as you nodded in acceptance. You had known from the start that this was the only way to keep them safe, but it didn't make it any less painful. The separation and the erasure of their shared past weighed heavily on you, but it was the price for their security.
With a heavy heart, you whispered, "I understand. Please, promise me you'll find them a good home, one where they can be happy."
Yaga's eyes held a solemn promise as he replied, "I will, [Name]. They will be well taken care of, and I'll do my best to make sure they have a bright future."
You took a shuddering breath, realizing that this was the painful but necessary path you had to take for your siblings' sake.
β€”β€”β€”β€”β€”β€”β€”β€”β€”β€”β€”β€”β€”β€”β€”-
The warm aroma of dinner filled the air as you put the finishing touches on the meal. It was surreal, knowing that this would be one of the last dinners you'd share together. Soft giggles and laughter from your siblings drifted through the house, and you couldn't help but smile, your [e/c] eyes wistful as you listened to their joyful voices.
Bath time and storytime passed in a blur, as if time itself had conspired to make this evening pass too quickly. Their eyes sparkled with excitement as you read them their favorite stories, and you felt your throat tighten with emotion. It was impossible not to be swept away by the profound love you had for them.
Finally, they fell asleep in your arms, their small bodies trusting and content in your embrace. The sight of their serenely sleeping faces should have brought you peace, but instead, it intensified the pain in your heart. Tears silently cascaded down your cheeks as you gazed at them, your love for them a bittersweet ache that lingered in the depths of your soul.
β€”β€”β€”β€”β€”β€”β€”β€”β€”β€”β€”β€”β€”β€”β€”β€”
Sitting them down with a heavy heart, you tried your best to explain that you had found them a loving family, one that could provide for them and take care of them better than you ever could. It was a painful conversation, and their little faces filled with confusion and fear only made it harder.
Their cries were like a dagger through your heart as they clung to you, their tiny arms wrapped around you tightly. "We don't want to leave you, you can't leave us," they sobbed, and their words shattered what was left of your composure. The tears flowed freely, and you held them close, your own heart aching with the same sentiment.
You reassured them that this was for their safety, that you would always be their big sister no matter where they were. But in that moment, nothing could comfort the pain.
Amidst the tears and the heartache, you made a promise that you intended to keep. As the three of you cried until you could no longer produce tears, you assured them that even though you wouldn't be together anymore, your love and presence would always be with them.
"I will always be right here," you whispered, gently tapping their tiny hearts as they cried themselves to sleep. Those words were etched in their memories, and though they couldn't understand the full extent of what was happening, they knew that their big sister loved them with all her heart.
In the following weeks, you found yourself meticulously packing up your siblings' belongings, a bittersweet task that brought back countless memories. Each item you placed in a box felt like a piece of your heart being placed in someone else's care.
As you carefully selected their clothes, toys, and cherished keepsakes, you couldn't help but feel a sense of nostalgia. You knew that these items, imbued with love and shared moments, would soon become a part of their new lives.
With each item carefully packed and labeled, you made a list of notes for their new family, detailing the little quirks, likes, and dislikes of your beloved siblings. You wanted to make sure their transition was as smooth and comforting as possible.
β€”β€”β€”β€”β€”β€”β€”β€”β€”β€”β€”β€”β€”β€”β€”β€”-
The day you'd long dreaded had arrived. It was time to say goodbye to your younger siblings, who had been your lifeline in this often cruel world. You'd grown accustomed to saying goodbye over the years, but parting ways with your brother and sister was an entirely different kind of heartbreak.
Your little brother, his eyes wide with fear and uncertainty, sought refuge behind your legs, gripping onto your pants as though they were a lifeline. He muttered in a trembling voice, "Sister, what if they're..."
You knelt down to his level, crouching close as you held him gently. "I promise you," you whispered with tears welling up in your [e/c] eyes, "that your new parents are nothing like our old mom and dad. They will love and care for you just as you deserve." Your words were filled with tenderness and unwavering commitment.
In the distance, you spotted their new family, a couple who had chosen to open their hearts and home to your beloved brother and sister. Your little sister held onto your free hand, her grip just as tight as her brother's, as the three of you approached their new family.
The pain of separation was almost unbearable, but you knew it was the right thing to do. These caring people would provide your siblings with the love, safety, and certainty they deserved.
The lump in your throat felt constant, a heavy weight as you hugged your little sister and brother goodbye for what you knew was the last time. Tears streamed down all your faces, mingling in a heart-wrenching moment of farewell.
"We'll love you forever and ever, big sister," they both cried, their tiny arms wrapped tightly around you.
"I will love you forever and ever, my little sister and brother," you cooed, your voice filled with affection and heartache. Your fingers tenderly stroked their backs as you held onto them, never wanting to let go.
Reluctantly, you released your grip, tears shimmering in your [e/c] eyes. Their new parents, their faces filled with compassion and understanding, gently took one of each child's hands. Together, they led your beloved brother and sister toward their car, which waited to take them to their new life.
A painful sob escaped past your lips once they had driven out of sight, the only family you had left was gone. The one thing tying you down to the states had now been severed as tears continuously streamed down your cheeks. If it weren’t for Yaga’s warm fatherly hand on your shoulder, you would’ve probably remained in that spot indefinitely, two pieces of your heart now spectated from you forever.
Sobbing uncontrollably, you felt as though the world was slipping away, and your heart was being torn asunder. Your vision blurred, and the air around you became an impenetrable fog of grief.
A sharp, painful gasp escaped your lips as your [e/c] eyes snapped open, and reality crashed back into focus. You found yourself lying on your bed in your room at Jujutsu High. Satoru by your side, attempting to change the warm rag that rested on your forehead.
Your heart pounded in your chest as the memories of the recent events rushed back into your consciousness. Toji, Satoru, Riko, and the chaos that had unfolded. Your eyes searching his body for any signs of injuries, and as you found none, a wave of relief washed over you.
Tears streamed down your face, and without hesitation, you threw your arms around him, hugging him tightly. "You're alive, Satoru," you sobbed with a mixture of joy, relief, and grief in your voice. Satoru's cheeks flushed with warmth as he felt your arms wrap around him, reciprocating the embrace. The joy of seeing you awake after all that had transpired was almost overwhelming. He held you tightly, savoring the moment.
"I'm here," he whispered, his voice laced with relief, as you clung to each other in the midst of the turmoil that surrounded you.

Time Gone By
Part One | Fate (Gojo x Fem! Reader)
(TW: blood, gore, violence, abuse)
Tumblr media
β€”β€”β€”β€”β€”β€”β€”β€”β€”β€”β€”β€”β€”β€”β€”β€”
The night of the invasion, your family was in the middle of a peaceful dinner, happily enjoying each other's company. The sliding glass door leading to the backyard had been left open to let in the evening breeze, the faint scent of flowers and freshly cut grass drifting in.
However, that tranquility was abruptly shattered when Toji appeared, kicking in the sliding glass door with a deafening crash. His sudden intrusion sent shockwaves through the room, causing your heart to race.
Before you could react, Toji swiftly subdued your father with a single powerful blow. The room filled with the sound of chaos, the clatter of overturned chairs, and your family's terrified cries.
Toji's ruthlessness knew no bounds that night. As your mother tried desperately to protect you from the menacing intruder, he showed no mercy. In a horrifying act, he impaled the two of you together, a cruel and gruesome display of violence that left you both fatally injured and in unimaginable pain.
Both fear and pain paralyzed you as you hazily looked up at your mother. Her normally bright and lively eyes, which had always brought you comfort, were now dark and lifeless.
Swiftly removing the sword from the two of you, you collapsed on your side. Bloodied coughs wracked your small six-year-old frame as you weakly called out for your parents. Their condition had not fully registered in your young mind, and you were overwhelmed by a sense of helplessness and confusion.
β€œMama… Papa..” Tears flowing down your cheeks as you cried out for your parents, gasping for air in your dire situation. Pain coursed through your small body, and the overwhelming grief made it almost too much to bear. Your vision blurred as your body grew hot, and the pain becoming nearly unbearable
A cooling sensation slowly spread through your chest, and you felt a glimmer of hope amidst the pain and despair. Your head turned toward the sound of hurried footsteps, and to your relief, two police officers arrived at the scene. You could barely keep your eyes open as the officers frantically worked to save you.
The realization of your parents' deaths began to settle in as you lay there, the world around you becoming a blur. Their voices were muffled, and you could hear the distant wails of sirens approaching. As the darkness threatened to take you, one of the officers, a kind woman with warm eyes, softly whispered, "Stay with us, kid. Help is on the way." You clung to her words, fighting to hold on as the world faded into black.
β€”β€”β€”β€”β€”β€”β€”β€”β€”β€”β€”β€”β€”β€”β€”β€”
Your eyes slowly fluttered open, and the sterile, white surroundings of the hospital room came into focus. Greeted by the faint beeping of machines and the soft murmurs of nurses moving about. The events leading up to your hospitalization flooded back into your memory.
You couldn't quite comprehend the reality of it all. Your parents were gone, and you were now left orphaned. Tears welled up in your eyes, and the grief was nearly suffocating. A social worker gently explained that they would be looking for a suitable foster home for you.
Alone in that hospital room, you felt the profound sense of loss and emptiness. Clinging to the memory of your parents, the warmth of their love, and the happier times you had together. The pain felt nearly unbearable, but somewhere deep within you, you found a flicker of determination. You would carry their love with you and find a way to move forward, even in the darkest of times.
The doctors' confusion regarding your rapid recovery was a mystery that they couldn't explain. But even as your physical wounds mended, the emotional scars ran deep. Memories of your parents' final moments haunted your thoughts, and their screams and cries seemed to echo in your mind, refusing to fade.
You felt like a hollow shell, moving through each day with a heavy heart and a sense of profound loss. The world had become a darker and colder place, and you couldn't shake the feeling that you were alone in a vast, indifferent universe. In a matter of no time, your social worker had found a family to take you in.
Soon after you were discharged, the Wilson's took you in. The first three weeks were comfortable, they had one other foster child, Lily, and for the first time in a while things seemed normal. But things took a dark turn for the worse when their "father" showed his true colors after coming home from his post-work bar bender.
As he stumbled through the door, reeking of alcohol, he slurred out cruel words and insults. His anger was like a storm that descended upon the household, and the peace and comfort you had felt vanished instantly.
The Wilsons, who had initially appeared to be a caring and loving family, were now revealed to be far from that. His wife and child cowered in fear, and you quickly realized that you had entered a new nightmare, one that was eerily reminiscent of your past.
In the midst of this nightmare, your older foster sister, Lily, shone as a beacon of hope through the darkness. She was your pillar of strength and support. Lily, seven years older than you, became your protector in those difficult times.
Whenever "father" would erupt in one of his violent outbursts, Lily was always there to shield you. Her courage and care provided a comforting presence in the midst of chaos. With her guidance and protection, you found solace and strength to endure the hardships that life had thrown at you.
As you grew older, your home life became increasingly hostile. β€œFather's" outbursts grew more frequent and severe. Lily continued to shield you as best as she could, trying to shoulder the brunt of his anger. The burden of her protection weighed heavily on your heart, as you watched your older foster sister bear the physical and emotional toll of the abusive household.
It was a seemingly ordinary day when you and Lily decided to enjoy a rare moment of happiness at the park and have lunch together, away from the looming shadow of your abusive "father."
However, that day took a terrible turn when he returned home unexpectedly early. You had planned to be back before he arrived, but his early return caught you both by surprise. The consequences were far worse than anything you had experienced before.
As your "father" mercilessly beat Lily, trying to get to you, anger coursed through your veins. He pulled her hair, and a swift kick to her side left her coughing up blood. But you couldn't just stand there any longer. Anger, fear, and a desperate need to protect your sister fueled your actions. You slipped out of her weakening grip and launched a punch at the bastard's face. He lost balance, falling backward, unconscious. Yet, the fury within you wouldn't subside, and you rained down an onslaught of punches, venting your frustration and pain.
Tears welled up in your eyes as you lifted Lily's shirt to reveal a large purple bruise forming around her ribcage. Her weak coughs pierced through your heart. Desperately, you tried to find a way to call for help.
"I'll fix this," you cried as you searched for help, your mind racing for a solution in the dire moment.
With the familiar cooling sensation at your fingertips, you knew you had the power to heal her. You took a deep breath to focus, then gently laid your hands on her injured side. The soft, light-blue glow began to emit from your palms, and you could feel her pain subsiding.
Lily's eyes fluttered open, her breathing slowly stabilizing. "What... what did you do, [Name]?" She was filled with both awe and confusion.
You managed a weak smile. "I... I have a gift, Lily. It's healing. But it's a secret, okay?"
She nodded weakly. "Okay, [Name]. I won't tell anyone. Thank you for saving me, my little sister"
Weak and battered, you and Lily slowly eased to your feet, clinging to each other for support. The two of you knew you had to get to safety. Stumbling toward the neighbor's house, desperate for refuge from the nightmare that had become your life.
β€”β€”β€”β€”β€”β€”β€”β€”β€”β€”β€”β€”β€”β€”β€”β€”
After the authorities had intervened, and once they uncovered the extent of "Father's" abuse, you and Lily were separated shortly after. The two of you had to go your separate ways, leaving behind a traumatic chapter of your lives.
Between the ages of eight and nine, you moved through three different foster homes. They were not nightmarish like the Wilsons, and you found some sense of security during that time. However, as you reached your tenth birthday, you were taken in by a new foster family; the Smiths.
During the first few weeks, everything seemed normal. The Smiths presented a facade of an average family. But you couldn't ignore the strange noises that came from the basement, or the feeling that something was off.
Your new siblings were terrified of your foster parents, and they made sure you understood the rulesw: don't make Mom and Dad mad, and absolutely never go near the basement. The fear in their eyes was a constant reminder of the darkness that lurked in our home.
Knowing that you couldn't allow your younger foster siblings to endure the same horrors you had experienced, you took on the responsibility of protecting them. Whenever they were subjected to beatings for the slightest mistakes, you stood up for them, just as Lily had done for you. Forming a tight-knit bond, seeking solace in each other's presence.
β€”β€”β€”β€”β€”β€”β€”β€”β€”β€”β€”β€”β€”β€”β€”β€”-
In some twisted way, you'd become grateful for your parents' nightly wrath, the daily use of your technique steadily helped you harness your power. As you contemplated your abilities, the thought struck you on your way to gym, "If I can heal myself so effectively, maybe I can use it to amplify my strength, stamina, and agility."
The sun was shining brightly in the clear blue sky as your gym teacher, Mr. Anderson, addressed the class. It was the day of the annual 3K run, and excitement and nervous energy filled the air. Students began their warm-up routines, stretching and jogging in preparation for the upcoming race. The track was surrounded by trees, their leaves rustling in the gentle breeze. As you and your classmates completed your warm-up, anticipation for the race grew. Finally, you all gathered at the starting line, ready for the challenge ahead.
Mr. Anderson shouted "START!," pushing off the starting line, heart pounding with determination, you focused your healing technique on your legs, feeling a surge of energy that made you feel lighter than air. The wind rushed past you, and for a moment, it felt like you were flying.
You slowed down as you neared the finish line, not wanting to draw any more attention than necessary. Despite that, you came in fifth overall, a remarkable achievement considering you were only using a fraction of your abilities. After the race, you rested by the water fountain when Mr. Anderson approached you.
"[Surname], you've got a real knack for running. Ever think of joining track or cross country?" he suggested, clearly impressed with your performance.
"Nope, I've got stuff to do after school anyway." Politely declining his offer as you shook head and left to shower and change, you had to finally found a way to get stronger.
β€”β€”β€”β€”β€”β€”β€”β€”β€”β€”β€”β€”β€”β€”β€”β€”
Five years had passed, and during that time, your strength and resilience had paid off. You had taken over as your siblings' caregiver, protecting them from the horrors your parents inflicted. The beatings had stopped, as they had realized they had no effect on you.
Despite their physical abuse ceasing, they found other means of control. "You think you're so clever, huh?" your foster father sneered one evening before dinner, his eyes cold and calculating. "You may not feel our beatings, but your precious siblings sure do. Don't think we can't hurt you through them."
Your heart sank as you looked at your terrified siblings, their faces filled with fear. "Please," you whispered, "leave them alone."
Foster mother chimed in with a wicked grin. "We control your world, and your siblings are our pawns. We could make their lives a living hell if we want."
The next day, you found your worst fears realized. The kitchen, which usually held a meager supply of food, was now stripped bare. Hunger gnawed at your stomach as your younger siblings looked to you with worry in their eyes.
A letter sat on the kitchen table, addressed to you. It read:
"[Name], we'll be gone for the next few weeks. Have fun.
Love, Mom and Dad"
It was a chilling message, making it clear that they could control your world and the lives of your siblings with ease.
Crouching down to their eye level, your younger siblings looked at you with a mix of curiosity and worry. "We're all staying home from school today, okay? I need the two of you to stay here and be good while I'm gone. Don't open the door for anyone, promise?"
The seriousness of your tone made it clear that this was an important request. Your siblings nodded in agreement, understanding that this was a situation that required their cooperation. Knowing you had to act quickly, you scrounged up whatever change you could find in the house, giving them each a reassuring smile before heading out the door, rushing to the nearest store
After buying a small amount of groceries, you returned home and made a simple but filling meal for your siblings. The relief in their eyes as they ate was all the motivation you needed to keep pushing through. As you ran your fingers through your little sister's hair sitting together, watching cartoons for the first time in a while. An idea suddenly popped into your head, and you smiled at your siblings.
"How about we go to the library today? You both can pick out two storybooks for bedtime," you suggested, and their faces lit up with excitement. The thought of a trip to the library and choosing new stories to read before bed filled them with joy.
Your siblings cheered in excitement at the idea of a library trip. Your little brother's eyes sparkled, and your sister's face lit up with a big smile. It had been a while since you had a chance to do something so simple, and their enthusiasm warmed your heart.
After finishing the cartoons, you quickly got ready, making sure your siblings were bundled up for the trip to the library. It was a cold day outside, and you wanted them to be warm and comfortable. As you walked to the library, their chatter filled the air, and it was a refreshing change from the usual tension at home. It felt like a small adventure, and your siblings seemed grateful for this rare moment of normalcy in their lives.
When you arrived at the library, they eagerly ran to the children's section, their eyes scanning the shelves filled with colorful books. They each carefully selected two storybooks, taking their time to pick the ones they found the most interesting.
You watched with a sense of fulfillment as they clutched their chosen books, the excitement in their eyes making your heart swell with happiness.
With your siblings' hands securely in yours and the tote bag filled with their chosen books slung over your shoulder, you were headed toward the library exit. However, something on the job listing board caught your eye, making you pause in your tracks.
The sign read:
β€œHelp needed, daycare in need of attendant. Babysitting or childcare experience preferred. Free childcare while working."
Your eyes widened with hope as you jotted down the phone number listed on the sign. This opportunity could be a game-changer for your family, providing not only a source of income but also free childcare for your siblings.
You couldn't help but wear a wide smile on your face as you continued the journey back home. The idea of securing this job and easing the burden on your family filled you with hope and excitement for a better future.
Tears of joy welled up in your eyes as you walked home, realizing that you got hired on the spot. Those few words on the job listing had opened the door to a new chapter in your life. Six months swiftly passed, during which life had indeed started to change for the better.
Your job had been a godsend, providing stability and support for your family. It allowed you to take care of your siblings while your parents were frequently absent, sometimes for weeks or even months at a time. You had found solace in the fact that your siblings were happy and safe.
One evening, during dinner, a sudden knock at the door sent chills running down your spine. Hastily instructing your younger siblings to hide, you rush upstairs and quietly slip out of the window. You carefully peer down to catch a glimpse of who might be causing this disturbance so late in the evening.
As you strain to see through the shadows, the intruder suddenly vanishes into thin air. Your heart races as you cautiously approach the spot where he stood, and there you find a mysterious black business card left behind. With a sense of trepidation, you pick up the card. Your fingers grip the card tightly as you flip it over to read the instructions on the back.
The words guide you to a hidden sorcerer black market website. A surge of curiosity and intrigue floods your thoughts. What could this mysterious website offer, and why was this person leading you there?
With the enigmatic business card tucked safely in your pocket, you return to your siblings, doing your best to reassure them and continue with your meal. While the mystery of the black market and its potential secrets lingers in the back of your mind, you keep your focus on ensuring your siblings' well-being and maintaining the peace and stability you've worked so hard to create in your lives.
As the Christmas season rolled around, the daycare owners presented you with two thoughtful gifts, a brand new tablet and computer. Tear of joy run down your cheeks, clearly touched by their kindness as you unwrap them.
One of the owners, Mrs. Johnson, smiles warmly and says, "We've noticed how hard you work, [Name], and we thought these might help you with schoolwork and your responsibilities here. We consider you part of our extended family."
Grateful tears glisten in your eyes as you express your thanks, "Thank you so much, Mrs. Johnson. This means a lot to me."
Once again, you feel a mix of emotions - the generosity of your employers warms your heart, but the enigmatic business card still lingers at the back of your mind. You've kept it hidden all these months, and it's become a secret you're not sure whether to dive into or not.
The dinner table held a warm, family atmosphere as you, your little brother, and sister enjoyed a home-cooked meal. Suddenly, your younger brother looked up at you with concern in his eyes.
"Sister, are things going to get bad again when you turn 18 and leave?" he asked. His question tugged at your heart, and you could see the same worry reflected in your little sister's eyes.
You gently placed your hand on your brother's cheek and assured him, "Of course not. I promise you, I'll make sure you guys are always safe and happy, no matter what. We're a family, and I'll always be there for you”
With a reassuring smile, you opened your arms, and your brother climbed into your lap, hugging you tightly. In that moment, you realized how important your role was in their lives, and you were determined to protect and care for them.
In the stillness of the night, with your younger siblings peacefully sleeping beside you, you found yourself revisiting the same conclusion that had been haunting your thoughts. It was clear that the only way to ensure a proper future for them, one free from the hardships you all had experienced, was to attain the financial means to adopt and provide for them.
Gently stroking your sister's hair as she lay snuggled close, you thought about the sacrifices you were willing to make and the path that lay ahead. In the soft moonlight, the resolve in your eyes shone brighter than ever. With determination in your heart, you whispered softly, "I'll do whatever it takes to provide you both with a safe and happy life. You deserve nothing less."
With your mind firmly set on exploring the world of the Jujutsu black market, you carefully slipped out of bed, trying not to wake your younger siblings who were sleeping soundly beside you. You had spent a significant portion of the night downloading the necessary software and learning how to access Tor to navigate the hidden corners of the internet.
The soft glow of your computer screen cast an ethereal light in your room as you delved deep into your research, scouring the web for information about your newfound powers, Jujutsu, and the website mentioned on the enigmatic business card. The night was silent except for the occasional clicks of your keyboard and the whisper of your breath.
As you ventured further into this mysterious world, a mix of excitement and trepidation filled your thoughts. You knew this path would lead to challenges and danger, but it was the path you had chosen to secure a brighter future for your siblings.
Hours passed, and you made your way through the labyrinthine corridors of the Jujutsu black market. Your heart raced as your eyes fell upon a listing that seemed almost too good to be true:
"Healer needed, $5,000 paid in cash, no questions asked."
The offer was incredibly tempting, especially considering your desire to secure a better future for your siblings. However, your excitement was quickly tempered as you noticed the familiar company name on the poster, the same one from the business card you had received. It was a clear sign that this opportunity had direct connections to the enigmatic world of Jujutsu sorcery.
As a sense of unease crept over you, you couldn't help but wonder if this was the path you should be treading, especially knowing the dangers that lay ahead.
With the weight of your responsibilities as your siblings' protector heavy on your shoulders
The mix of anxiety and anticipation weighed heavily on your chest as you summoned the courage to click on the ad, submitting your application for the healer position. It was a big leap into an unknown world, but the need to secure a better future for your siblings motivated you.
Your pulse quickened even further when, within mere minutes, you received an email notifying you that your application had been accepted. The email contained all the necessary details – time, date, and location.
With a deep breath, you scanned the information, mentally preparing yourself for the path you were about to embark on.

Enervation
Fate (Gojo x Fem! Reader)
(Tw: blood, violence, and death)
Tumblr media
β€”β€”β€”β€”β€”β€”β€”β€”β€”β€”β€”β€”β€”β€”β€”β€”
The relief was palpable as you and the others, including Satoru, entered Jujutsu High's barrier. Yawning along with him, you couldn't help but smile as Riko and Kuroi expressed their relief. It had been quite an eventful three days, but you had all made it back safely to the protection of the school's barrier.
Satoru couldn't help but express his exhaustion. "No more... no more babysitting," he grumbled, his tone laced with fatigue. You, however, couldn't resist a tired giggle. With a gentle yet, playfully slap to his chest you reminded him, "Don't be such a grouch, we made it home!" Your words were a light-hearted way to acknowledge the successful mission and the safety you all had secured.
Satoru's playful grin was infectious, and your laughter resonated in the warm afternoon air. Suguru extended his heartfelt gratitude for the hard work both of you had put into the mission, and a sense of pride began to well up within you, knowing that you had actually contributed to the team's success.
But this moment of camaraderie was brutally interrupted. Your body instinctively recoiled as your eyes widened in shock. Tranquility shattering as you watched in disbelief, a sword suddenly piercing through Satoru, the blade stained crimson with his blood, dread settling heavily in your chest.
"Do I... know you?" Satoru panted, sweat dripping down his face, his charismatic grin tinged with unease. The atmosphere had shifted drastically, and then your blood ran cold as soon as the man behind the blade spoke.
β€œNah don’t sweat it, I don’t care to remember names unless they mean money,” Toji gruffly responded from behind Satoru, his voice laced with a sinister edge.
Toji's presence sent shivers down your spine, awakening a torrent of emotions that you had suppressed for so long. You could still vividly remember the fear in your parents' eyes as they tried to protect you from him. The pain of your injuries, the moment your curse energy manifested in response to the life-threatening wounds, and the relentless struggle for survival.
The knowledge that Toji had brutally taken your parents from you, and had almost taken your life, was a heavy weight that had haunted you for years. Now, here he was, as if fate had brought him back into your life.
In the heat of the moment, your instincts kicked in as you swiftly moved toward Satoru, the urgency to help him and protect your friends taking over. Suguru summoned his largest cursed caterpillar to shield Riko and Kuroi from potential harm, ensuring their safety.
Toji's landing was a testament to his agility and skill, keeping him as a significant threat. Satoru, regaining his balance, provided a more detailed explanation to put your fears to rest. "I'm fine," he began, his voice steady. "My curse technique didn't activate in time, but I managed to minimize the damage. He didn't hit any vital organs." His words carried an air of calm, alleviating your worries.
A chill runs down your spine as Toji recognizes you. "You're [Surname]'s kid," he darkly chuckles, leveling his sword at you. Your heart raced with fear as Toji recognized you. Satoru immediately sensed your panic and instinctively acted as your shield, placing himself between you and the menacing figure.
Toji's disturbing words hung in the air as he cruelly remarked, "You've got a ton of curse energy now, all because I killed your parents. You should be grateful; I mean, you could always pay me the extra twenty grand I was promised for taking your life." His sadistic humor sent shivers down your spine.
Suddenly, Suguru's cursed caterpillar sprang up from the ground, swiftly swallowing Toji whole.
"Amanai is our priority," Satoru's voice snapped you out of your daze. You looked into his aquamarine eyes, a sense of urgency filling the air. He continued, "You need to go with Suguru. I'll take care of this." Hesitating, your fear for Satoru's safety evident in your [e/c] eyes. "Satoru, he's... he's a monster. Don't let your guard down around him," you softly warned as you ran toward Suguru and the others.
Satoru, undeterred by the situation, turned toward the blade that had pierced through the caterpillar's thick skin. With a smirk, he quipped,
β€œI’m amongst the strongest aren’t I?”
β€”β€”β€”β€”β€”β€”β€”β€”β€”β€”β€”β€”β€”β€”β€”β€”
A heavy but touching moment unfolded as Riko and Kuroi shared their goodbyes. Kuroi's voice trembled with emotion, "Master Riko, this is as far as I go. Please takeβ€”" before Riko leaped into her arms, tears streaming down her face. "Kuroi, I love you!" She cried. "Always and forever."
"I love you too!" Kuroi tearfully replied. The two shared an emotional farewell, and your heart ached as you and Suguru observed this poignant scene from the chamber's main entrance.
Holding Riko's hand, you offered her a reassuring smile as the three of you descended into the main hall of the Tomb of the Star.
It hadn’t taken long for you to reach your final stop."We're just outside of where Master Tengen is." Suguru informed. Your eyes wandered in awe as you took in the sheer scale of this massive underground structure.
"Are you ready, Riko?" you asked, offering her a supportive smile as she nodded in a mix of fear and determination. "You'll need to head downstairs and pass that gate, then head towards the base of the huge tree. Once you're there, Master Tengen will protect you until the merger." Suguru instructed as Riko tried to bravely let go of her hold on you, her hand lingering as she shakily gazed down at the tomb.
β€œOr you could turn back and go home with Kuroi” Suguru said as he turned towards Riko. β€œBefore we met you, the three of us decided that if you didn’t want to merge Satoru and I would take responsibility for it.” Suguru finally explained.
Shock was evident on her face as you happily giggled at her expression. β€œWe’re the strongest, so whatever you choose we promise to protect your future” smiling as he finished.
Tears welled up in Riko's eyes as Suguru revealed their plan. Your heart swelled with affection for the young girl. Riko wiped away her tears with the back of her hand, her expression a mix of gratitude and relief.
"You guys really... care about me that much?" She trembled as she spoke, touched by your words. "We really do," you replied, your voice filled with sincerity, Suguru nodding in agreement as well.
β€œI thought that because I didn’t have anyone that the loneliness and sadness would disappear with the merger but; I want to be with everyone” Riko cried as made her way towards the two of you.
Opening your arms as a smile spread across both of your faces, she was nearly in your arms until a loud bang filled the chamber.
Dread and disbelief washed over you as you looked down at Riko's lifeless body. Time seemed to slow to a crawl. Your trembling hands reached out to touch her, unable to accept the horrifying reality that had just unfolded. Tears welled up in your eyes as you cradled her, the joy from moments ago now turned into an overwhelming sorrow.
"Riko!" You cried out, your voice choked with grief. The chamber, once filled with hope, had transformed into a scene of tragedy.
"Time to wrap things up now," Toji announced, stepping out from the shadows, a malevolent grin on his face. Both you and Suguru exchanged frightened glances, the weight of the situation bearing down on you. Suguru cautiously questioned, "Why... are you here?"
Your hands shook as you gently laid Riko's lifeless form down, trying to gather your composure. The presence of Toji brought a chilling sense of dread.
Toji's tone was sinister as he answered, "Why?" His words were laced with a dark intent, but before you could understand, he knocked the gun against his head. "Oh, I gotcha," he muttered, revealing a twisted sense of amusement.
Then, the confession came like a hammer blow. "I killed Satoru Gojo," Toji admitted, a sinister smile on his face as he kept you and Suguru in his cold, unforgiving gaze.
Your voice quivered with fear and disbelief as you reacted to Toji's horrifying confession. "No... there's no way," you muttered, your voice trembling as you instinctively tried to draw closer to Suguru. The world seemed to blur around you as your thoughts raced to process the shocking revelation.
Pain suddenly surged through your body as you lurched forward, coughing up blood, and your eyes locked on the blade protruding from your chest. Toji's menacing presence overwhelmed you as he callously chuckled. "It's been a real pain in my ass since I found out you've been alive all these years," he sneered, quickly yanking the blade from your body. "The higher-ups weren't too happy about that" he snarled before forcefully kicking you to the ground.
Your wheezing breaths echoed in the chamber as you lay on the cold concrete. Toji's cruel words about your parents' murder had struck you to the core. If not for the blood that relentlessly flowed from you, you might have finally had the opportunity to find closure for your painful past.
However, as the minutes passed, panic slowly set in. Your body refused to heal, and a chilling realization washed over you: poison coursed through your veins. You felt your strength wane, and despite your desperate attempts, your body was far too exhausted to use your reverse curse technique.
Dark, weary (e/c) eyes met Suguru's horrified dark violet orbs. In those final moments, a bittersweet smile tugged at the corners of your scarlet-stained lips. Your eyes began to drift shut, and your head limply lulled to the side, memories of happier times at the beach enveloping you as you succumbed to the darkness.

Laughter filled the air as tears streamed down your cheeks. You couldn't help but clutch your stomach in a combination of joy and pain, caught up in the infectious mirth that surrounded you. Riko joined in your laughter, and even Gojo, ever the playful one, couldn't contain his amusement as he wielded a massive sea cucumber.
Satoru's playful side was on full display as he turned the sea cucumber into a makeshift weapon. A mischievous smirk graced his lips as he cranked his strong arm back, taking aim at you and Riko. Laughter filled the air as you and Riko made a hasty escape along the shore, Gojo in hot pursuit with his improvised sea cucumber weapon. The sea, sand, and sunlight were the backdrop for this moment of pure, carefree fun.
β€œGirls, Satoru!!! Let’s get going!!”
Suguru suddenly proclaimed, as the three of you came to a halt. Recognizing the change in Riko's mood, you gently squeezed her hand before hurrying to catch up with Satoru as you both approached Suguru.
β€œHow about we leave tomorrow morning instead?” Satoru softly suggested, only for a tired sigh escaped past Suguru’s lips. β€œYou’ve been using your technique non stop since yesterday and you haven’t slept since either.” Suguru quickly added only for his violet orbs to be drawn back to you as you suddenly interjected.
"I'm able to use some reversed curse energy," you explained, your voice tinged with nervousness. "The higher-ups did allow me to use my technique if it's to ensure completion of the mission. So I was thinking, I could help Satoru lighten the load a little by healing him throughout the night."
Satoru's bright smile illuminated his face as he playfully pulled you both in. "You're right, [Name], she'll help out tonight, and don't forget you're here too, Suguru," he declared with a mischievous glint in his eyes. With a final, lighthearted exchange, he darted after Riko once more, his infectious enthusiasm fueling the joy of the beach day.
Suguru and you observed the lively scene, a sense of contentment permeating the air. Your gaze was fixed on Satoru, who, despite his exhaustion, chased Riko with enthusiasm and playfulness.
"You're both so compassionate," you began, your voice tinged with admiration and appreciation. "Although he's tired, Satoru continues to push himself so Riko can enjoy herself as much as possible. Actually, the both of you have. I never imagined proper sorcerers being so kind."
Suguru glanced down at you as you both watched the waves, the question on his mind breaking the tranquility of the beach. "Have you worked with other sorcerers before?"
β€œYes, but only through the black market," you confessed. Memories of those difficult times resurfacing. "At the time, I needed the money to feed my siblings and myself.”
Suguru nodded, understanding the challenging circumstances you had faced in the past. He respected your determination and sacrifices for the sake of your family. Yet, the conversation was cut short by Riko's call, prompting you to leave that topic for now.
β€œAh- I’ll be right back!” You told suguru as you jogged towards her.
"Sure, take your time," Suguru replied, a warm smile on his face as you jogged off to join Riko. Your new companions had brought a sense of camaraderie into your life, and you were eager to enjoy every moment with them.
β€”β€”β€”β€”β€”β€”β€”β€”β€”β€”β€”β€”β€”β€”β€”β€”
As night settled in and you sat by Riko's futon, the tiring day at the beach had taken its toll on the young girl. She held onto your hand, her eyelids growing heavy as she drifted in and out of sleep. In her drowsy state, she asked, "[Name], we'll always be sisters, right?"
Tenderly combing through her hair, you reassured her with all the love in your heart, "Of course, Riko. I love you so very much, my little sister." The bond between you and Riko was a special one, a connection forged not by blood, but by love and shared experiences.
It didn't take long for Riko to fall asleep, deciding to tiptoe out of your shared room, leaving her and Korui to their peaceful slumber. You quietly made your way towards the back porch. Satoru's bright white locks stood out in sharp contrast against the dark star-filled night sky.
Taking in the breathtaking scenery, you softly mentioned, "It's beautiful out tonight," as you neared Satoru. The night sky was adorned with countless stars, casting a serene and magical atmosphere around you, as the ocean’s waves crashed onto the beach not too faraway.
"Yeah, the stars don't look the same at Jujutsu High," he agreed. Satoru then casually slipped off his t-shirt, exposing his lean and well-toned physique. The moonlight highlighting his features, creating an almost ethereal glow.
You couldn't help but blush as you sat behind him, your hands gently glowing with your healing power as you pressed them against his strong back. A sigh of relief quickly escaped Satoru's lips as he felt the soothing sensation of your healing touch.
You nervously mumbled, "Ah, sorry, give me a second," as you removed your hands from his back, quickly realizing that your nose was bleeding. Blood began to flow from your nostrils, and you tried your best to stop it by pinching your nose. Satoru immediately turned around, his expression a mix of concern and surprise, his aquamarine eyes fixed on you.
His six eyes keenly observed the restrictions placed upon your body. The complexities of the seals and their implications quickly registered in his mind. Any annoyance or irritation he might have felt toward the higher-ups was momentarily set aside as his concern for your well-being took precedence.
With a sense of urgency, he followed you back into the house. The dim light revealed the tension in his face as he realized the severity of the situation.
β€œAlright, we need to stop, and you should go to bed," Satoru began but you quickly interrupted him in determination. Clutching your bloodied nose, you asserted, "No! I promised I'd heal you. Just let me try again, please." Your insistence was clear as you held onto your commitment despite the setback.
Satoru sighed, understanding your determination and not wanting to dismiss your offer entirely. He could see the sincerity in your eyes despite your bleeding nose, and he reluctantly agreed, but not before making sure you wouldn't overexert yourself. "Okay, one more try, but if it gets too much for you, we stop immediately," he said with a hint of concern in his tone.
With the bleeding stopped, you felt reinvigorated and ready to continue the healing process. Your determination was evident, and a bright smile lit up your face as you energetically invited Satoru. "Let's go!" you said, motioning for him to join you on the back porch, ready to fulfill your promise.
Satoru's chuckle was like a warm breeze in the evening air as he followed you to the porch. As you sat down side by side, a peaceful silence enveloped you, giving you the space to focus on your technique. You attempted to heal him once more, but Satoru was attentive, gently grabbing your wrist.
"Slow down, give yourself a bit to recoup," he playfully advised before letting go, his concern and care evident in his aquamarine eyes. Your sigh held a tinge of reluctance, but you knew he was right. Taking a moment to rest was necessary in order to produce the best results.
The waves crashing in the distance added to the serene atmosphere around you. Your words held a soft confession, as you looked up at the star-filled sky. "You know, I'm halfway across the world, but I'm much happier here." Your voice carried a sense of contentment and peace in this moment.
Satoru's aquamarine eyes shifted toward you, taking in the sight of your curly locks glistening under the moonlight and the soft smile gracing your lips. "You don't say?" he replied with happiness in his tone. You chuckled softly. "Of course, I have a fresh start, and I get to learn from the strongest." Your words held a sense of optimism and enthusiasm.
Satoru listened attentively as you shared your past. Under the serene moonlight, you opened up, revealing your difficult journey. "Fresh start?" he mumbled to himself, intrigued by your story.
"My foster parents at the time," you began with a hint of sadness in your voice, "they were involved in some terrible things – selling drugs and various other illegal activities. They had no care for my siblings and me. So, I had to work nights, taking black market gigs to put food on the table." Pausing for a moment, you continued, "In the states, I was one of the very few people who could wield curse energy, and even fewer who could use reverse curse energy." Your voice was soft and filled with the tenderness of someone who had overcome immense challenges in life.
Satoru listened attentively as you shared your past. His aquamarine eyes held a mix of sympathy and understanding. "Your strength and tenacity are pretty remarkable," he commented, acknowledging your resilience. He flashed you a warm and reassuring smile, "now, you don't have to face those challenges alone. You can count on me, Suguru, and everyone back at Jujutsu Tech. We're a team, and we've got your back." His words were filled with sincerity, making you feel truly welcomed into this new chapter of your life.
You shared a meaningful moment with Satoru as you gazed into his bright blue eyes, and your gratitude was evident in your expression. A faint blush graced his cheeks in response to the connection you were building.
Taking your position right behind Satoru, placing your soft hands on his strong shoulders. The reverse curse energy began to flow from your hands into him. As you continued to channel your reverse curse energy into Satoru to heal him, he softly questioned, "How are you doing so far, [Name]?" His strength slowly beginning to return, as you worked diligently against the restrictions placed on you.
"I'm doing fine," you whispered as you continued to pour your energy into him eventually collapsing against his back.
"[Name]?" Satoru worriedly said. You responded with a sleepy murmur, "Mhmmm, five minutes." Snuggling into the warmth of his back, taking a much-needed rest.
Carefully turning around and effortlessly catching you in his arms, cradling you gently. Satoru couldn't help but smile at your sleeping form, your actions had touched him deeply, and in that moment, he felt a warmth in his heart he hadn't expected.

Confidence
Fate (Gojo x Fem! Reader)
Tumblr media
β€”β€”β€”β€”β€”β€”β€”β€”β€”β€”β€”β€”β€”β€”β€”β€”
"What?!
Isn't it safer to take her back to Jujutsu High now?" Gojo exclaimed in exasperation over the phone. Yaga sighing in agreement on the other end, but he knew that they were obligated to follow Riko's requests. Satoru didn't say much but simply hung up the phone.
"Tch, being all soft on her!" Annoyance was evident in his tone, but Suguru attempted to bring a different perspective to the conversation.
Suguru's voice carried a solemn tone as you all gazed at the sparkling waters of the Olympic-sized pool. "Don't be like that, Satoru," he implored. "She may have said all those things, but after the merger with Master Tengen, she'll never be able to see family, friends, or anyone she holds dear ever again. Let her enjoy herself for the time being; that's our mission," he concluded, emphasizing the importance of giving Riko these moments of joy and normalcy before the inevitable merger. His words resonating with you.
"Lady Riko doesn't have any relatives. When she was young, her family died in a car accident. I've been taking care of her ever since. So please let her enjoy her time with her friends," she softly urged.
Kuroi's plea tugged at your heartstrings. You couldn't help but respond with empathy and understanding. "Kuroi, just because you two are not related by blood doesn't mean you aren't family," you tenderly noted, your warm smile conveying your belief in the importance of the bonds that go beyond blood.
Despite your experiences in various foster homes, you knew the significance of having people who cared for you as family.
So that makes you her family then," Suguru happily added, his words echoing your sentiments. A twinge of pink had rested upon Kuroi's cheeks as her heart grew warm with appreciation. "Yes, you're right," she tenderly said, acknowledging the deep connection and responsibility she had toward Riko.
Suguru's words had a way of diffusing the tension and spreading warmth among your group. "How're the surveillance curses?" Satoru asked, shifting the conversation back to the mission at hand.
"Right," he said, his worry evident. "Satoru, [Name], we need to get to Riko now," he urged, Suguru's concern bringing a sense of cruciality to the group, taking the lead as the four of you sprinted towards the impending danger, knowing that time was of the essence.
As the urgency in your footsteps quickened, you found yourselves navigating the labyrinthine corridors of the school. The question of Riko's whereabouts hung heavy in the air. Satoru, the seasoned sorcerer, was the first to inquire, "What class is she in?"
Kuroi, who had been diligently caring for Riko, didn't skip a beat. Her voice was steady as she replied, "She's in music! So she's either in the chapel or music room!"
With a clear target in mind, Suguru issued orders. "Alright, Satoru, you take the chapel. Kuroi, you go to the music room, and [Name], you come with me." The instructions were clear and precise, allowing your group to efficiently divide and conquer.
Reaching the end of the hallway, you and Suguru confronted a wily old man who was skillfully manipulating two cursed spirits to guard his front and rear. The situation was clearly dangerous, and you both had to act swiftly to protect Riko.
Without hesitation, Suguru summoned his own two cursed spirits, alongside the familiar cursed caterpillar that had been carrying Korui earlier. The field was set for a supernatural showdown.
"[Name], hop on. It'll keep you safe until we're done," Suguru said, his eyes filled with determination, as he gestured towards the cursed caterpillar. The creature was your temporary refuge in the midst of this supernatural conflict, ensuring your safety while Suguru and his spirits battled to neutralize the threat.
Suguru's masterful control over his cursed spirits was a sight to behold. With your safety ensured on the back of the cursed caterpillar, you watched as Suguru executed his technique. He filled the hallway with one of his formidable cursed spirits, strategically using the spirit's abilities to create a tactical advantage.
As the old man was drawn in for close-quarters combat, you observed the intensity of the battle. The encounter showcasing Suguru's combat prowess and strategic thinking, as the battle ended swiftly in your favor.
As you watched the efficient and effective way he handled the situation, a sense of awe washed over you. It had been a while since you’d felt like you had people you could truly count on, individuals who could help you grow stronger, both as a sorcerer and as a person. It was a reassuring feeling, knowing that you had allies who had your back in the perilous world of curses and sorcery, whilst navigating your way through a new country.
β€”β€”β€”β€”β€”β€”β€”β€”β€”β€”β€”β€”β€”β€”β€”β€”
Gahhhh!!! Every time I hop on here all of the continued love for Fate gives me even more motivation to write!! Thank you all so much!

Greetings
Fate (Gojo x Fem! Reader)
Tumblr media
β€”β€”β€”β€”β€”β€”β€”β€”β€”β€”β€”β€”β€”β€”β€”β€”
As the three of you arrived at your destination, Satoru turned to [Name] with a mischievous grin and asked, "If you could choose any seat in a classroom, where would you sit?"
[Name] considered the question for a moment before replying, "Hmm, front and center." Her response reflecting her eagerness to learn.
An eager grin spread across Satoru's lips as he playfully took hold of the back of your uniform. A small yelp escaped your lips as your body suddenly fell forward, and surprise was evident on your face as you realized you were practically floating in Satoru's hold. Your [e/c] eyes turned toward the explosion on the side of the building.
Swiftly, Suguru leaped into action. He summoned one of his curses and skillfully caught Riko in the process, displaying his expertise and quick thinking. A sigh of relief escaped your lips as the danger was averted, but it was quickly replaced by a squeal. Your stomach felt like it was in your throat as Gojo swiftly advanced, propelling the two of you toward the next target.
"Phew! Just in time," Gojo stated with a touch of cockiness. He had swiftly stopped an onslaught of knives from piercing the two of you, showcasing his incredible combat and protection skills in the nick of time.
Adrenaline coursed through your veins as you watched in awe as Satoru easily pushed the knives to the side. As the tension in the air grew, the Q Soldier Vayer made himself known. "Ahh, the famous Gojo Satoru, hmm, and who's this foreigner?" he inquired, acknowledging your presence in the mission despite the palpable disgust in his tone. The encounter marked a critical moment in the unfolding mission, where you, a foreign sorcerer, were stepping into the spotlight and engaging with a formidable adversary.
Before you could react, a cocky laugh escaped past Satoru's lips, and his gaze hardened on their opponent. "Of course, you'd think in such an archaic way. Apologize now for what you've said, and I'll let you live," Satoru reiterated, his confidence unwavering. His imposing presence and the demand for an apology created a tense stand-off, setting the stage for a decisive moment in the mission. The Q Soldier Vayer had a choice to make, and the outcome was far from certain.
β€”β€”β€”β€”β€”β€”β€”β€”β€”β€”β€”β€”β€”β€”β€”β€”
β€œGahhhhhh!”
"Would you two let go of her? That's not how you treat a lady!" You worriedly exclaimed as you and Kuroi swiftly made your way towards the trio. Your concern and assertiveness in defending Riko were evident.
"Kuroi!" Riko gleefully exclaimed, "My lady, they are our friends," Kuroi happily explained as Suguru's cursed spirit carried her along. The warmth of their reunion was palpable.
A warm smile graced your lips as you stuck out your hand. "I'm [Name] [Surname], but you can call me [Name]! Those two idiots over there and I will be escorting you for the merger. It's nice to meet you," you kindly introduced yourself. The introduction marked a moment of camaraderie, with you extending a friendly hand of welcome to Riko.
"You're so pretty," she softly muttered as she gazed at your voluminous curls and the golden hoops that accentuated your look.
Riko's soft compliment made you blush, and you couldn't help but feel a sense of warmth. Your heart melted at Riko's cuteness. She reminded you of one of your foster sisters, and the connection between the two of you was immediate.
Unable to contain your affection, you swiftly pulled Riko into a sisterly hug. "Riko, you're so cuteee," you squealed with genuine delight.
Tender smiles formed on Satoru and Suguru's lips as they observed the heartwarming moment between the two of you. "You know she's spunkier than I thought," Satoru softly commented, revealing a newfound appreciation for Riko's spirit and energy. "Aren't you supposed to be all gloomy because of the merger?" Satoru questioned, genuinely curious about Riko's optimistic attitude.
"I am Riko Amanai, so you better listen up," she confidently began as soon as she finished hugging you, her determination shining through. "I am Master Tengen, and Master Tengen is me! So there's no need for me to be sad about the merger." Riko's resolute words demonstrated her strength of character.
"Well, that's good. I guess was worried about you for no reason," Satoru nonchalantly informed, his demeanor relaxed but clearly relieved by Riko's conviction. "You talk as if the merger and death are the same thing, but they are not! I will live on with Master Tengen!" Riko confidently declared, emphasizing her faith and resolve.
You couldn't help but be impressed by Riko's unwavering dedication, but it also brought a bittersweet realization. Beneath her strong front, she was just a middle school girl, facing a profound and challenging destiny. Your smile faltered in the slightest as you pondered this fact.
Determined to support and protect her, you quietly vowed,
"I'll make the time we have with her as memorable as I can."

Informative
Fate (Gojo x Fem! Reader)
Tumblr media
β€”β€”β€”β€”β€”β€”β€”β€”β€”β€”β€”β€”β€”β€”β€”β€”
Gojo, attempting to ease the tension, turned to you with a charming smile. "Hey, [Name], want a soda?" He inserted a few coins into the vending machine, the clinking sound of change echoing in the corridor.
You, however, were deeply engrossed in reading through the mission dossier, your brows knitted together in concentration. The details of the mission were complex and demanded your full attention, but Gojo's offer added a touch of warmth to the task at hand.
With a friendly warmth in your voice, you replied, "Sure, Gojo-senpai, I'd love a soda." Your attention remaining on the dossier, appreciating the gesture nonetheless.
However, Gojo, with his characteristic playfulness and desire for a more familiar interaction, quickly interjected. He nudged you gently, offering a charming grin, and said, "You don't have to be so formal, [Name]. Call me Satoru." His request was accompanied by a wink, a subtle invitation to a more casual rapport.
[Name]'s [e/c] eyes, a captivating reflection of her own unique spirit, were momentarily ensnared by Gojo's aquamarine orbs. As she looked up from the file in her hands, his close proximity and charming grin left her cheeks flushed with warmth. It was impossible not to notice his strikingly handsome features, and for that brief moment, the mission's complexities seemed to melt away in the presence of this enigmatic Jujutsu Sorcerer.
Geto, observing the interaction between you and Gojo, decided to join in. Introducing himself with a friendly smile and said, "By the way, I'm Suguru. No need to be too formal. Just call me Suguru." His inviting demeanor mirrored Gojo's, as both of them sought to create an atmosphere of camaraderie on this mission.
Curiosity sparked in your eyes as you turned your attention back to the mission. "So, can you guys fill me in on why the Star Religious Group wants to kill her?" you asked, your desire for information and understanding evident.
β€œThey worship a pure Master Tengen. The two of them merging would soil his purity according to them." Suguru explained as you opened your soda. It was a simple yet unsettling explanation, shedding light on the extremist beliefs that were driving the opposition of the mission.
[Name] offered a thoughtful perspective. "Considering they're non-curse users, we probably shouldn't be overly concerned, should we?" Glancing at both Satoru and Suguru, her practical approach to the situation shining through.
Satoru, always one to appreciate a well-reasoned argument, nodded in agreement. "You've got a point, [Name]. While they might not possess cursed techniques, we should still keep an eye out for the curse user group Q."
Satoru took a moment to elaborate on the mysterious of the group. "They’re no ordinary bunch," he explained, his tone serious. "They're non-cursed users, but they've devised unorthodox methods and artifacts that allow them to deal with curses on their terms. They've become a thorn in our side, and we must approach them with caution. You see, [Name], it's their unpredictability that makes them particularly dangerous." Satoru's words emphasized the need for vigilance in dealing with this unconventional threat.
Understanding the gravity of the situation, [Name]'s brows knitted together in a display of concern. Quickly finishing her soda, her thoughts aligning with the seriousness of the mission.
Satoru, confident and reassuring, continued, "It'll be okay, though. Suguru and I are among the strongest. That's why Master Tengen specifically asked for us and why Yaga requested us to teach you." His words carried a sense of determination, highlighting their expertise and the trust placed in them by the higher-ups. It was a reassuring reminder that, despite the challenges, they were more than capable of handling the mission.
A smile graced your lips at Satoru's confidence, and you swiftly disposed of your empty soda can before joining the two boys by the exit. A peaceful silence enveloped the three of you, a moment of camaraderie amidst the impending mission.
However, it was Suguru who broke the silence. "Hey, Satoru," he began, his tone gentle but with a hint of advice, "I've been meaning to tell you this. You've got to work on the way you talk, especially towards your superiors.”
Satoru was quick to responded by sticking his tongue out and giving a playful thumbs-down. [Name] couldn't help but giggle at Satoru's response. She walked in between both boys, her presence adding a touch of warmth and camaraderie. "I guess that's what the Jujutsu world and America have in common," remarking as the three of you arrived at your destination.
