Online Wonderland

Chapter 3

"Stop. Right now."

The bullies turned around and looked and looked at Itadori with an agitated expression, they were so not happy when someone interrupted them. The bullies would end up beating them up too.

"Huh? Who are you to tell us what do to? Go piss off while you still have the chance, you cunt."

It was getting on Itadori's nerves. With his clenched fist he punched the guy and smashed him onto the lockers. 

"Murano!"

'Oh so that's his name.'

Murano's face looked like the nose was pulled out and smashed into his face again. His face was covered in tiny bruises and blood was dripping down his nostrils and mouth. He looked utterly destroyed.

"Get lost if you don't want to end up like him."

Murano's minions assisted him and quickly scrambled away. Itadori glared at them until they couldn't be seen. After they disappeared, Itadori looked at the person who was being bullied.

"Megumi Fushiguro?"

Fushiguro looked at him, his face was ruined. Covered in bruises and small cuts, blood on some parts of his cheeks and forehead. His wrists were bruised and there were tiny scars on his wrists. Itadori ignored that part for a bit, he quickly went down and put Fushiguro's left arm around his neck.

He gently lifted himself and Fushiguro up with him. He started walking slowly towards the nurses office, Fushiguro limped a little.

"Walk a bit slow... My foot hurts."

His voice sounded so hoarse, crumbled, Itadori felt so horrible.

"I'm sorry."

"It's okay. How do you know my name?"

"It's not okay for you to talk right now, let the nurse fix you up."

Fushiguro sighed and relaxed a little.

At the nurses office, Fushiguro was being treated by her. He slightly winced when she was applying the antiseptic on the small cuts on his face. Itadori just stood there, feeling so horrible, he was mentally beating himself up. He knew it wasn't his fault, but still, every time Murano bullied someone, he just stood there and watched.

After Fushiguro was treated, he started asking Itadori questions.

"So, how do you know my name?"

Itadori looked at him and nervously chuckled.

"Who wouldn't know the middle school delinquent?"

"Oh... Right..."

Itadori pulled out his water bottle and passed it to him. Fushiguro's eye's slightly widened for a second, but he accepted his offer.

"Hey... Can I ask you a question?" Itadori asked while sitting down on of the stools next to the bed. Fushiguro slightly nodded.

"You were known as the 'bad guy' in middle school, and you'd beat people up when they did something wrong... So why...?" Why aren't you fighting back? Why are you just giving in?

Fushiguro sighed, this was his most asked question. No matter what, he'll always tell people the same answer:

"It was a promise."

Usually after this people would interfere more and would basically beg to him to tell them what the promise was. But then, for the first time, he heard someone say:

"Oh okay... I'm not gonna bother myself in your business."

Fushiguro, for once, felt very relieved. He really liked how Itadori knew how to mind his business and not poke his nose into others. He was glad that there was at least one person who knew what personal space was. He was feeling comfortable.

"Anyways, I should get going. Gojo-sensei's class has already started. Get well soon."

Itadori stood up and left the nurses office. 

'So people like him do exist. I'm glad.'

Chapter 3 came out very soon lol

I know how most of you must be thinking that 'Megumi knows how to fight, he literally sat on top of a mountain of students. So why isn't he fighting now?" Well he does know how to fight, but as Megumi said, 'it was a promise'. I'm sure he'll tell us later on.

Stay safe and have a good day! <3
