Akane's pov
"Oi brat"
A familiar voice struck me off guard making me activate a barrier to protect my fried rice, I spent too long getting groceries and they are not getting destroyed by some four eyed sexual devian-
"Akane, open up" I heard Megumi's voice as he came out from the forest with Gojo and-oh no way...
"The fuck...?" I mumbled in disbelief seeing Yuji in uniform with Gojo and Megumi while I lifting the barrier
"Morning~ meet our newest member, Itadori Yuji" He grin while I was still in mild shock while this kid just waves at me
"YOO RED CURSE!! Megumi told me all about you!" Aha he did, did he
The fact he is avoiding my glare should be an answer
I went back in my room through the window to put my plate in the dishwasher before going out through the door taking a closer look.
Well nothing is different... only the fact he has some scars under his eyes
"Take a picture it'll last longer" yep there it is
"Wow I seriously can't believe you're still alive with that thing now part of you" this is just hilarious, "nee try hitting me" I grin putting my hand out which made him laugh pulling back his fist
"Don't think I'll hold back"
"Mmk"
When punched me, in short I didn't really feel much, no cursed energy just brute force, and Sukuna's powers probably haven't fully meld with him yet
"Hehe pretty good ri-GAH" he got cut off when I grabbed his fist and flipped him over, and got my foot on his throat
"I like this one, he's ballsy. Nee Megumi try being more like him"
"I refuse" he answered instantly as I got my foot off and let his fist go, he groggily got up, rubbing his head
"Fushiguro said you're a curse....but the more I look at you the more hard it is to believe you're a curse..." he mumbled while squinting as Megumi slap his forehead to break eye contact
"Don't stare too long or she'll paralyze you"
"EH?? SERIOUSLY "
"Maybe"
"WHAT"
"Alright~ this was a nice introduction!! Akane~ DO WE HAVE OUR SCHEDULE" He pointed as I brought out this notebook he forced me to have
I feel like an errand boy...
"Yes..."
"THEN LETS GO MEET OUR NEWEST MEMBER~~"
———a few minutes to Haraju later———
"Oh hello there. Are you on the clock right now?"
"No, I'm not."
"Y-you see, I'm looking for potential models. This is who I am would you b-AHHH M-MY HAIR" I may or may not have set his wig on fire because these streets are just filled with those creeps
"Oii stop it that's the 5th time..." Megumi groaned slapping the back of my head
"Not my fault his curse was on his head" I said while eating my 3rd crepe
"It was on his shoulder..."
"The head is close to the shoulder"
"But it's a kinda embarrassing..." Yuji sighed
"You're no different from her..."
Ah yes me setting a man on fire is more embarrassing than...whatever is going on with him
In the corner of my eye two nails came flying, so I catch it ah newbie, she was glaring so harshly at me
"Ah that must be her, oii over here~" Gojo called her over as I threw back her nails
She came over and just stares at us, menacingly. First was Yuji, then Megumi, and me, really she's just glaring at all of us at this point
"OH uhm I'm Itadori Yuji. I'm from Sendai"
"Fushiguro Megumi"
"I'm Akane, also stop glaring or I'll poke you eyes out" I said finishing my crepe as She finally stops and lets out a sigh of disappointment
"I always get stuck with such unfortunate circumstances, I even need to work with a curse...?" Wow...she's like Megumi when I first met him...but more loud with brown hair, "I refuse to work with her..." she growled pointing a hammer at me
"Well you don't really have a choice-" I pushed her hammer from my face, "-would you prefer going against me then..." I smiled making her flinch as Gojo clapped his hands to break the tension
"Hey hey now kids~ no fighting! We're going to our Tour in Tokyo~"
"TOKYO! TOKYO! TOKYO" me and Megumi just stood to the side while these three gush about how great Tokyo is, "WE LOVE TOKYOO~"
"TDL~ I WANT TO GO TO TDL"
"IDIOT!! TDL IS IN CHIBA!! LETS GO TO CHINATOWN SENSEI!!"
"CHINATOWN IS IN YOKOHAMA"
"WELL YOKOHAMA'S PART OF TOKYO!! DONT YOU KNOW THAT?? LOOK AT A MAP IDIOT"
"Our destination...is..ROPPONGI"
"RO. PON. GI??? YOSH NOW LETS GOOO" those two cheered and darted off the wrong direction
————a few seconds later————
"THIS IS NOT ROPPONGI YOU CURSE WHERE THE HELL ARE WE?!??" She yelled trying to choke me alive as Yuji was yelling at Gojo
"YOU WERE TOYING WITH HS COUNTRY FOLK"
"Ah schedule says after this we Gojo-san is gonna buy us food"
"Eh? I am-?"
Both stop yelling and just start cleaning my hair and dusting my clothes off
"Aha~ you look great toda-AH HOT HOT"
"Piss off the both of you" I snapped making them pull back their hands away from me
"There's a big cemetery nearby, the double whammy of that and an abandoned building brought out a curse~" Gojo said doing a quick run down of the situation
"Huh so they really do pop up more often around graves?"
"The issue isn't the cemetery itself, it's more to the fact people associate it with fear"
"Oh! It was the same for schools too wasn't it?"
"Hold up. He didn't even know that yet??" Nobara furrowed her brows pft...oh god I can't help but laugh at how idiotic it was
"That's because he ate a Sukuna finger-ah" she's hiding behind me
"WHAT?? HE SWALLOWED A SPECIAL GRADE CURSED OBJECT??!! NO WAY!! You do something?!?? You're a curse too right? Take it out!!"
"...I may be one, but I'm not a miracle worker"
"Now, I want to know what you two are capable of, think of this as a field test. Nobara, Yuji, go exorcise the curse in the building"
"But I thought only curses could exorcise curses? I can't use any Jujutsu just yet"
"Well you're basically half a curse already, There's cursed energy flowing throughout your body. Though controlling it isn't something that happens over night, so here use this" He gave Yuji a curse blade which he happily took from him
"Ah and here take her with you, think of her as a substitute for Megumi~" he said dropping me to them while he goes away with Megumi and flips me off
.

That little-
"Bitch... ok Yuji, no Sukuna or it'll be boring, and Nobara-"
"I'm not going to listen to you" she scoffs and went inside the building while Yuji pats my back as we both went to catch up
"Wow she's mean..."
"I've dealt with Megumi this is fine, I'm gonna go with her since she's probably not used with city curses-"
"I CAN HEAR YOU TWO NOW COME ON" she yells opening the door
Woof
She's so full of herself it's insane, at the very least when Megumi is doing that he's considerably good at what he does.
It's good she's confident...but it doesn't help if she doesn't have the ability to even it out
Well let's just see what happens
After heading inside it's clear...
"This place smells like rat piss" I groaned trying not to step on anything
"You tell me...Why an I dealing with curses after coming all the way to Tokyo" Nobara said as we 3 go up the stairs
"Huh? Didn't you come here to exorcise curses??" Yuji asked making her sigh
"Let's not get personal, I'll start from the top and go floor by floor. You and her start from the bottom. Let's get this over with quick and grab some sushi from Ginza~"
"Hold on a minute, let's take this a bit more seriously"
"For once I agree with the meatball" I sighed pushing her aside and punch through the wall to grab a curse by it's head which sure as hell shocked them, "curses in tokyo are on a different level than those on the country side, more wisdom and more wit" the curse starts burning to ash as my grip tightens around the head
"Ehe not that it should matter, you should know that no? So Nobara, if you don't mind I would like to see more of what you can do~"
"Yosh! In that case I'm heading out!" Yuji saluted and ran downstairs while I follow her upstairs
And she is not happy
"Tch shouldn't curses stay together?"
"I don't know~ shouldn't you noticed that curse behind you? Also no offense but I trust him more-" with that comment she already has two nails flying right in front of me
Wow wow wow that temper she has is being wasted on me rather than the curse she needs to hunt....
"And why's that...?"
"Despite not having cursed energy, he has no hesitation to go for the kill. I however don't know you so well so I'm curious that's all" I smiled making her scoff before taking her nails back
She clicked her tongue then walks ahead of me and slams a door open, I peaked in from behind and immediately saw the curse in a model mannequin
She pulls out a new set of nails and her hammer while pointing at the mannequin
"I'll show you...I'm better than that booger eating kid" ooohhh she snappe-wait booger what
I just stayed by the corner to watch her do her thing
"Hey, you. I mean you, mannequin in the center. You actually think you're hidden there...? If you won't come out I'll exorcise you right here right now" she spoke to it while getting ready to attack
Blue flames came from the nails as she aims for the middle mannequin
Wow woww she can pass as a grade 3 sorcerer those nails went straight to its head and her curse energy can easily penetrate it because of her nails
Eyes started to pop out from its head as it tries to get back up the nails dug themselves deeper
"You might want to pull those out..." she snaps her fingers which made sparks of blue fly out of the head, "-or my cursed energy will flow into you..."
Ah and that's that, I walked towards the thing and noticed the energy shift
This didn't seem so dead to me-
Wait...
"Well~?"
"Pretty good but how about the kid?"
"Eh?"
The moment she answer a few boxes fell, she walked to my direction seeing a child who was terrified of the fact she just killed a mannequin with eyeballs
"You ok kid?" I arched a brow while she just push me aside to go to him ouch
"He's probably scared of you" hahh says the one holding a hammer, "hey, it's alright. You can come out" he shakes his head
"...pft..."
"SHUT UP YOU kids just don't warm up to beautiful women"
"Well then I guess I'll try," I walked to the kid and just sat next to him, "are there more?" He slowly nodded as a curse emerged from behind grabbing his head
oh no
This is bad
The moment it even tried grabbing me, I flashed my eyes with a glare which made it stop and just focused on the kid
"Soo Nobara what's your next move? A child is being taken hostage, remember I'm not helping in this one~"
"Damn it...damn, damn, DAMN IT!!" She screeched and put her weapons down
Oh? She's surrendering?
"....I'm unarmed, let the boy go-" she got cut off when a fist came through the wall pft...my god this kid
"Ah did I miss?"
"A bit more to your right"
He burst through the wall and immediately sliced a hand from the curse while grabbed the kid away from the scene, Yuji kicked that curse away
"You good?" The kid nodded, I tapped his forehead which made him pass out as the curse was heading out the window
"HE'S GETTING AWAY!!"
"NO WAY, ITADORI GIVE M E THAT ARM. I REFUSE TO BE SEEN LOWER THAN A NORMIE"
"RIGHT HERE" he quickly gave her the arm and she pulled out a straw doll along with her cursed weapon
"Straw doll technique: RESONANCE!!"
Ah and with that it's dead
"We won..."
"See! This is why I told you it's dangerous to go alone!!" Yuji sighed making her huff walking up to him with crossed arms
"YOU NEVER SAID IT WAS!! AND WHAT THE HELL HAVE YOU BEEN EATING THAT LETS YOU PUNCH THROUGH THAT WALL??"
"IT WASN'T REINFORCED CONCRETE!!"
"EVEN IF IT WAS THAT'D STILL BE IMPOSSIBLE FOR MOST PEOPLE"
Hahh these two are just insane... so this will be fine
I got up with the kid for this to be someone else's problem
"Yosh well~ you two catch up I'm gonna bring this boy d-"
"Oii hold it" she called and held my shoulder, "so how was I" she grinned
"Ahah~...well I'm gonna go byee"
"OII GIVE ME AN ANSWER DAMN IT" she yelled throwing nails, making me duck as they broke a wall behind me
So I ran to the doo-
"Sorry...by the way...and thanks, Itadori, I wouldn't have had a bright future if I had died. So thanks" wow so she does have a heart I might as well
"I can't wait to see you get stronger, ah I need to bring this kid back before he wakes up. Any food requests I should tell Gojo?"
"STEAK"
"SUSHI"
"Got it~"
I bolted down the stairs to get out of the building and shoved the kid over to Megumi where he proceeds to look as if I just killed him
"Oh stop glaring he's alive, also those two want Steak and Sushi" he looked behind me as did I seeing them peaking from the door waiting for an answer
"Leave it to me~"
"YESSSS!!!" They cheered and for once they weren't trying to kill each other as they hopped around like lunatics
So they'll be the next generation huh?
