Gojo's POV:

"So princess, do you think you can beat me ?" I placed my hands on my hips holding a huge smirk

We were standing in the training ground facing each other. My eyes traveled through her body and I was reminded of how gorgeous she was

"Aren't you being too cocky!" She huffed mimicking my smile

"It's called confidence" I answered affirming myself

"Then why are you stalling?" She asked taking a stance, readying herself.

"I am not. I am just imprinting this moment in my brain. After all, it's our first fight"

"I am honored !" She placed her hand her back and bowed in a knightly way.

"So, How should we proceed ? Should I ... "

I couldn't finish my sentence when she appeared right in front me. She charged towards me and in a fraction of seconds she managed to close the distance between us.

Her fist was right in front of my face.  I quickly grabbed her wrist and brought her closer

"Should I deactivate my infinity to give you a chance ?" I teased her whispering in her ear.

"No need" To my surprise, she held a big smile "I managed to touch you plenty last time" 

I turned around myself  rotating her figure and pushing her away.  She landed her palm on the floor with a perfect handstand, kicked herself up back on her feet.

She looked at me with a satisfied expression. Her gaze was tracking the length of my body soaking every inch of me.  I couldn't help but shiver when her eyes met mine

"What are you doing ? " I couldn't help but feel uneasy.  She looked very satisfied for someone one was just thrown on the ground.  

"It's not too late to give up you know " I couldn't help but chuckle. 

The table have really turned.  I have never imagined that one day I would be the one to be taunted by someone.   But why am I feeling omnious.  My senses are on high alert and I haven't felt that since I was a targeted by assassins when I was a kid. 

"I could tell you the same thing, princess" I spoke up despite my uneasiness.

She charged again without any kind of warning with her leg out aiming for my knees.  I was about to kick her feet away when the next breath I took seemed to be swept away in an explosion of pain from my lungs.  I blinked twice and (y/n) was right in front of me. 

Her face blurred and there was buzzing in my ear.  Everything around me faded out.  A lavender sent swamped my senses.  My mind was taken to all of the tiny happy memories of my life.  I was reminded of those days were my late grandfather took me fishing and explained the family's technique.  I thought about the day were we took Riko Amanai to the beach.  I remembered my best friend, our crazy adventures and our inner jokes all in one second.

"Come back" A voice whispered or yelled.  I wasn't sure.  All I knew that it was everywhere. All around me and inside.  I regained my senses and I remembered that I was in fight against (y/n)

But it was too late, I found myself on the ground.  With a spare under my throat and a foot on my chest.  Almost as if I had no control over my body, my infinity was deactivated

"Wait ! What happened ? " I asked as I watched (y/n) smile from above me

"You lost ! That's what happened"  She removed her foot as I regained my conscience reactivating my limitless barrier.
