Bodies Bound

Darling

We all arrived at the prison where the womb curse was growing. Gojo had given me permission to use any of my cursed energy, not that it would help any since I have forgotten how to use it. I'm basically useless.

"At present, five detainees remain in there with the curse. If this curse womb is the type that metamorphoses, we predict it will become a special-grade cursed spirit."

"Normally a sorcerer on par with the curse would be here to exorcise it, that would be Gojo-Sensei, but he's not here. We have (Y/n), but she isn't allowed to use any cursed energy." Fushiguro further explained the situation to Itadori.

"This is an abnormal case. Do not fight under any circumstances. If you encounter a special-grade, your options are to either run or die. Please just listen to your fears. Do not forget your mission here. If you run into any trouble, you will leave behind (Y/n) and she will entertain the curse so that you may all get to safety until Gojo returns."

"What does he mean entertain?" Itadori asked when Ijichi started to walk away.

"Y-you w-will all l-le-eave m-me, a-and t-the c-cur-se w-will r-r-rip me-me ap-part until m-my master gets h-here." I explained.
"What!" Itadori yelled like it was absurd. I'll admit, I never was a fan of that part of the plan either but it's not like I'll die, I can't die.

We start to walk into the building. I was lagging behind as I keep tripping over little juts in the uneven path, and even over a small step up that I didn't know about. Finally someone comes to help me.

"Sorry about that (Y/n)." It was Itadori: "You can hold onto my arm, I'll help you." He started walking with me, this time I wasn't tripping as much but I still stubbed my toes a couple of times.

Fushiguro summoned his demon dogs as we made it to the door. We hurried inside and Fushiguro stopped us.

"What is this?" Itadori sounded confused and amazed. We are in a domain, I could feel it. That would be why he's confused. After all, I don't think a prison dorm would be too cool.
"Where's the door?" Fushiguro shouted.
"Huh? It's gone." Itadori said.

Nobara and Itadori started calmly panicking, if that's even a thing. Until Fushiguro told them not to worry and that the dog knew the scent of the door.

We continued walking for a while, following a winding path of metal. I could smell the stench of a dead body, three of them actually. The others found the body and Itadori suggested bringing one back.

"Don't be silly, we still have two more bodies to account for. Let's go."
"What are you talking about? We came in and the door disappeared, if we leave, we'll never be able to come back for the body."
"I never said come back for it! I said leave it behind!"

I could hear their voices escalating and some violent movements. I assumed they were roughing each other up a bit to try and change the other's mind.

Nobara started yelling at the two of them. God, they're all idiots. There's no way the curse doesn't know where we're at, and if it didn't, then it knows now with all the noise they're making.

Suddenly Nobara stopped talking, I tilted my head to the side a bit, wondering why it was such a sudden stop.

"Itadori! We're running! Well search for Kugisaki later!"

I heard a slicing and then a splattering of blood then something metal clanged a few feet away.

"Hey Sukuna. If I die, you die too right? If you don't want that, then help me out." Itadori said.

That's not how it works young one, you haven't made a contract, he doesn't have to do anything you say. But I am curious, what happened to him that he thinks he's going to die?
