"You know, I don't really appreciate being tied up like this." Rei had a grumpy frown on her face, sat in a mahogany wooden chair with her hands tied behind her back and ankle also tied together, both by a thick rope that had some sort of seal she had never seen before. "I'm not going to attack you unless you really give me a reason too."

A white-haired man was also sat in front of her, on a similar wooden chair. Backwards- might she add. Unfortunately she was the only one tied down in this room, that seemed to be filled with countless of seals on the wall. Her eye twitched- did God just send her here to be tied up?

"Well... It's not really my fault." The male replied, "What's your name?" Rei squints at the man suspiciously, her magenta eyes narrowing in distrust. Deciding he's not worth it, she jerks her head to the side like a child with a huff. "Hey, hey... I'll even tell you mine." He whines out, resting his head on his arms. His head tilted to the side as he looked at the girl. "How old are you?"

The girl glances at him from the corner of his eyes, seemingly to debate whether to tell him or not. With a shrug, she does. "Twenty-five."

"Ooh," he replies, "I'm twenty-eight." If possible, that seems to make her even more disgruntled.

"Great," she starts, "I'm being babysat by an old man." Gojo feels his mouth open in mock offence.

"Might I say there is only a three year gap?" Rei shakes her head.

"An old man..." A wistful look appears on her face, as if reliving through the greatest struggle known to man. A smirk rests itself on his face, and Rei can feel his gaze on her. It's heavy, pointed, and she knows when his gaze starts lowering to look at her outfit because she can feel it behind that stupid blindfold. Speaking of,

"Why do you wear that blindfold?" His eyes drag back up to her face, and she can tell he's a little surprised at the question. He hums, a short silence filling the air.

"Well, I don't see the harm in telling you. My eyes are very sensitive," he starts, now resting his head against his hand, "I assume you can sense some energy around people?" Rei nods. "My eyes are slightly different to others- if I don't wear this the amount of energy I see is a little overwhelming." Rei nods in understanding; some members of the Hyuuga Clan had that problem, luckily being able to deactivate their eye power.

"So does that mean that blindfold is infused with that energy?" The man in front of her smiles knowingly.

"I'm surprised you could sense it." Rei scoffs arrogantly.

"Of course I can sense it, I'm not weak." Gojo doesn't reply, and it irritates Rei that he doesn't believe her. He underestimates her. Now annoyed, she asks "Hey, these walls aren't that important right?"

Gojo is puzzled, "What? Well, no not really-" and before he knows it, Rei flares her chakra and the ropes holding her down snap into mere strings. She walked to the left, mustering chakra into her hand. The room, lit up with many candles, was now hued blue and Gojo only watches as she pulls her hand back and smashes through the wall with brute force. Eyes widening, he just sat there, as the girl disappeared leaving a large hole in the wall.

Starry-eyed was Rei, staring at the city before her. The streets were so busy! And there were so many people! And they all looked happy!

Jumping up to a food stall, her stomach grumbled at the delicious looking food before her. The stall owner looked at the girl, and chuckled, asking if she wanted anything. She had seen people pay with money she had never seen before, and she didn't want to steal so she unfortunately shook her head with a small "I don't have any money." The chef raised his hand and waved it, brushing it off.
