A couple of Months Later...
"WAKE UP!" Yuji yelled as he flipped Y/N's bed
"OW DAMN IT! THAT HURT MAN!" Y/N said as he sat on the floor rubbing his head
"Hurry up, you've got training with Maki." Yuji walked out of the room
"So grumpy, the hell happened to him?"
*Knock* *Knock*
"Morining Satoru- I mean Y/N" Yuta said with a smile
"There's no way I look that much like my grandfather Yuta-sensei" Y/N said with a laugh as he got up
"Oh you do though, wanna see?"
"Sure thing"
Yuta lifted up his phone and showed a picture of Satoru Gojo, his grandfather
"WOAH HE LOOKS JUST LIKE ME!" Y/N shouted in shock
"He does, so sorry if I call you Satoru"
"No worries Yuta-Sensei"
"Now hurry up and get ready, me and Maki are going to teach you some of the basics of swordsmanship"
"Sounds good!" Y/N replied as Yuta walked out of the doorway
Timeskip to Y/N meeting up with Maki and Yuta
"Y/N, you're late." Maki said with a stern look
"Just like Gojo-Sensei" Yuta said with a chuckle
"Yeah sorry about that, I was just on my phone and lost track of time" Y/N said as he started stretching
"What's up with Yuji? He's been so pissy lately, as if Sukuna took over again" Maki asked as she looked at Yuta
"Because of me. I remind him too much of my grandfather and that must hurt him a lot. After all, he told me Gojo-Sensei was good to him and he never got to say goodbye" Y/N said with a defeated expression
"That might be the case but don't blame yourself Y/N. I'm sure Yuji is more happy to have you as a student over being sad about his old sensei" Maki said with a heart warming smile
"Wow, thanks Maki-Sensei. I think that's the first time you've ever been nice to me"
"Don't push your luck."
"Anyways, shall we get started?" Yuta asked
"Alright then, here hold this" Maki said as she handed Y/N a huge bamboo stick
"What the hell is this? This isn't a sword." Y/N said with an annoyed expression
"You're not getting one until you've mastered the basics. Now carefully hold it up in front of you. Try different poses and see which one feels most comfortable for you" said Maki
Y/N tried many poses but the one he felt was most comfortable was holding the sword as his side, keeping his hand on hilt, ready for an attack. Depending on the move, Y/N could get a quick and fast strike in with his stance
"Hmmmm, it's a interesting one but it makes sense. After all you're probably the fastest person alive and it'll catch people off guard"
"Sweet, what's next?"
"Basic swings, now I know you've seen people fight on TV and all of that bullshit but it's not the same in real life. The sword is actually heavy and won't be easy to control if you don't have complete fluidity and control over your sword."
Y/N lifted his stick in the air and slashed it down, he then did it in all directions and continued for a while until he put his sword down
"What's wrong?" Maki asked confused
Y/N looked up panting "I'm...I'm tired."
"Told ya, it's a lot harder than it looks huh?"
"Yeah..."
"Keep going. You're not done yet. Keep going until I return and then you can stop" Maki said as she walked away and back into Jujutsu High
"AW COME ON!" Y/N cried out
Timeskip 2 Hours
"You think he's still going at it?" Yuji asked as he sipped tea while looking at Maki
"For sure. Y/N-san is a hardworker I can tell"
"Don't push him too hard Maki-Chan. You'll frustrate him" Yuta said with a worried look
"You do realize this kid took down Sairaorg? Ranked as unofficially one of the strongest beings among the 3 factions all while being 17?" Maki said with a blank stare
"She has a point Yuta. Y/N-san is stronger than Gojo-Sensei and has way more potential than Gojo-Sensei ever had"
*Sigh* "I guess. I just wanna look for him. He's had it super rough. I'm not too sure how he's doing mentally"
"Yuta-kun, he'll be fine. He's a strong kid. We'll make him even stronger" Maki said with a smile
Yuta nodded as Yuji spoke up "Well, it's getting late. Don't you think you should tell him to come inside?"
"Yeah I will" Maki said as she got up and walked outside to a see shirtless Y/N drenched in sweat, still working on his basic movements with his sword
"He's only practiced for 2 hours and he's mastered the basics. There's no doubt he's ready to take on a swordsman. My version of basics is extremely advanced compared to the usual swordsman. He really is a prodigy" Maki thought to herself
"Alright Y/N-san, that's enough."
*Pant* *Pant* "Finally, I'm exhausted." Y/N said while he dropped to the ground
"Get up and go get yourself clean. Yuta-kun has something for you when you're done."
"Alright"
Y/N got up and walked inside, he then went to the showers and started to wash himself
"Jeez, who knew swords could be so exhausting. I think I got it down though. Maki-Sensei seemed to be impressed by what I could do. Hopefully I get stronger by training with Yuta-Sensei"
Y/N finished washing up and walked to his room and got himself dressed until he heard a knock at his door
"Come in!" Y/N shouted from behind the door
Yuta walked in with holding something in his back
"Oh what's that?" Y/N asked curiously
"It's HAIR DYE!!!" Yuta smiled brightly as he shoved the bottle in Y/Ns face
"WHAT? WHY?"
"Because we need to change your hair! You'll be easily spotted if you keep your white hair. Don't worry though, we can rinse it out with some dye remover once this is all over!"
"AW COME ON"
"JUST DO IT SO WE CAN GO OUT TO DINNER!"
"FINE!"
Y/N walked into the bathroom and began to apply the hair dye, after doing the routine he walked out and looked at Yuta "So?"
"YOU LOOK GREAT!"
"Jeez, it doesn't help I haven't gotten a haircut yet." Y/N mumbled under his breath
"What was that?"
"NOTHING! Ummmm about my eyes, what are we going to do? Everyone knows I have to cover my eyes so they'd spot me"
"Here, Maki-chan made some special contacts for you, they're colored brown on the outside and are pitch black on the inside to prevent the light from getting into your eyes"
"Sweet!" Y/N exclaimed as he took off his sunglasses and put on the contacts, after a few blinks. Y/N got adjusted
"You ready?" Yuta asked with a smile
"Yup. Let's go"
Y/N and Yuta walked to the front gate to meet Maki and Yuji there
"Oohhhh, look at Y/N-san. Rocking the emo look hm?" Maki said as she bumped Y/Ns shoulder in a playful manner
"MAN I DIDN'T ASK FOR THIS!"
Yuji walked over and ruffled Y/Ns hair "Come on, let's go get some dinner"
As the 4 walked around and made it to the city, they decided to find somewhere to eat in Shibuya
"Jeez, this place brings back bad memories" Yuji said with a shudder
"Yeah, are you sure you'll be okay?" Maki asked with concern in her voice
"I will, don't worry. Now how does sushi and ramen sound?" Yuji asked everyone
"YEAH!" The 3 shouted in unison
As the group walked towards a restaurant, Y/N accidentally bumped into someone and knocked them over
"Oh shit, I'm so sorry are you-" Y/N stopped mid sentence and froze in fear and shock
"Irina." Y/N thought to himself
"Hm?" Yuji said to himself as the group turned around to see what happened and to their shock too, saw a sight they wish they hadn't
"SHIT! IT'S HIS GIRLFRIEND!" Yuji, Yuta, and Maki thought to themselves
"Oh I'm so sorry for bumping into you! I didn't mean to! Please forgive me" Irina said as she grabbed onto Y/N's hand and stood up "Please allow me to introduce myself, I'm Irina!"
Y/N couldn't say anything. It had been a while since he'd seen the love of his life and to know that he was going to be away from her longer hurt him. He wanted to tell her everything, let her know he was alright and how everyone back home is doing but he knew he couldn't do that. He would ruin the plans everyone has built for him
"I'm uhhhhhhhh" Y/N nervously looked around and tried to come up with a name and looked at Yuta and Maki
"Oh! I'm sorry, I'm Yutaki!" Y/N said with a smile as he stuck his hand out to shake her hand
"You look familiar Yutaki, have we met before?" Irina asked curiously
Suddenly Y/N heard 2 more familiar voices he wished he had never heard again
"Irina are you alright?!"
"Hey Irina slow down!"
Yuji, Yuta, and Maki went wide eyed as they realized Irina wasn't alone and Akeno and Issei were with her
Yuji leaned over to the 2 and whispered "We need to get him out of there. I don't see this ending well"
"Agreed" The 2 replied
"Uhhhhh, no I don't think we've met before!" Y/N said in a high pitched voice "You got the wrong guy!"
"Sorry, you just looked liked someone I've missed for a little. Excuse me but these are my friends"
"Hello nice to meet you, sorry Irina ran off and bumped into you. She was just excited to get to the manga store to buy some new volumes of Jujutsu Man! You are?" Issei asked curiously
"Oh I'm Yutaki! It's nice to meet you, Issei" Y/N replied nervously
"How do you know my name?" Issei asked with a raised eyebrow "I never told you it"
"SHIT!" The 4 thought to themselves
"Oh you know, I go to Kuoh Academy! You're quite the popular one!" Y/N started to sweat
"Oh, cool then we should meet up during lunch and get to know each other!" Issei said with a fistbump
"And I'm Akeno, it's nice to meet you Yukita" Akeno said with a handshake
Yukita and Akeno looked into each others eyes and stood there for a few seconds until Yuji spoke up "Alright then, we've gotta get going! We don't wanna miss our dinner!"
Yuji pulled Y/N away and began to walk away from them
"You idiot! Why didn't you end the conversation as soon as possible?! They're gonna be on our asses" Yuji said as he smacked the back of Y/Ns head
"OI! I WASN'T READY FOR THAT!"
"Relax, you did fine Y/N. Just be more careful" Maki said as she ruffled Y/Ns hair
Issei POV
"That was him wasn't it?" Issei asked the 2 girls
"It was. I know the feeling of Y/Ns hands and those were his hands. He can change his hair and eye color but one thing he can't change, is his touch" Irina said as she held her hand
"Do we go after them?" Issei asked
"No. Leave them alone. Thankfully they disguised themselves and it's not "them". They're going to be smart about this which makes it easier on us. Let's just get out of Shibuya for now and go home. I don't want to take any more risks" Akeno said as she turned around and began walking into an alley to teleport them
Y/N POV
The 4 were sitting at the table and Y/N looked distraught
"What's wrong man?" Yuta asked as he smiled at Y/N
"Why was Issei with those 2 alone? Do you thi-" Y/N was cut off mid-sentence
"No. They wouldn't do that to you. I know they wouldn't. Don't worry about them and worry about what you have ahead of you. They're not important, your training is" Maki said with a gentle tone, careful not to upset Y/N
"You're right. Sorry Maki-Sensei and Yuta-Sensei"
"It's no worries. It's only normal for you. You're a teenage human. It happens" Yuta said as he fistbumped Y/N
Eventually after some laughs and bonding, the food came
Yuji wrapped his arm around Y/Ns shoulder and pulled him in "Now dig in!"
Yuta took a polaroid of the 2 and handed it to Y/N
"Hey, this is pretty cool! Thanks Yuta-Sensei!"
"Anytime"
The rest of the night was filled with laughter and smiles and bonding between the 4. Y/N was glad to have another family. One that wasn't going to abandon him in his most trying times. He appreciated what Yuji was doing for him, a lot. Not only that but he enjoyed Maki's warmness and Yuta's friendliness. These were Y/Ns favorite people and he truly did enjoy the night with them because he knew deep down, that they were the closest thing to family and the bond they shared
Timeskip to Y/N walking into his room
"Aw man, I'm so exhausted. That was so much fun though! I hope we can do it again" Y/N said as he took of his shirt and headed to the bathroom to clean off the dye in his hair
Once Y/N cleaned up, he put the picture of Yuji and him on his bedside and hopped into bed
"I'll get strong. I'll get so strong that I'll be able to protect both families. Itadori-Sensei is the closest thing I have to a father. Not only that but Yuta-Sensei is like a uncle. And Maki-Sensei is like a aunt. It's a whole new family. I miss my old one but I'm glad to have this one" Y/N said to himself as he sighed and rolled around in bed
"I do miss Akeno, Ravel, and Irina. Still, why was Irina and Akeno with Issei alone? Where was Ravel? I seriously hope they're not doing anything while I'm gone. No, impossible. Issei is my best friend and Irina and Akeno love me. I just gotta stop overthinking."
Y/N finally turned his phone off to sleep mode and fell asleep
