"No, no, no, no!" You pounded your fists outside of the sphere that Dagon had created. You had no idea how to break one of these things without harming those you cared about inside. You were helpless yet again.
You collapsed to the floor in defeat, clinging to your knees as your body wracked with worry.
It felt like an eternity before the bubble finally burst and everyone came out looking rather beat up. Megumi also somehow appeared, likely nearby when the domain expanded.
On the other side of things, a demonic looking Toji appeared as well. I thought my brother fucking killed your ass, you thought for a moment, what's with all these zombies?!
"Nanami!" You leapt to your feet and embraced him, not yet noticing his bloody facial wound (AN: I ain't making him lose his precious eye! >:( )
"I'm alright, I'm alright," he returned the brief embrace before pulling away. "If Fushiguro didn't show up we'd all be dead." You felt proud for the young student, Satoru training him up right, but you couldn't help but still feel useless. "The real question is is he on our side?" Kento pointed ahead where Toji was getting his footing.
While he was getting up, you all suddenly heard another voice mourning over the ashes of Dagon. It was another cursed spirit, one with a volcano for a head and blackened teeth.
He, too, came to a stand and looked as if he were about to strike - starting with Kento.
Toji, however, sprinted to another area - Megumi sprinting after him with no idea that that was his dead father. Considering Toji's zombie-like state and Megumi's skill you knew he'd be able to handle it.
"I'm sick of it!" You suddenly shouted, gaining everyone's attention.
The being was startled by your volume and also somehow shocked at your appearance - likely thrown off by another Gojo being present.
In one swift and fluid motion, you curled your fingers into position and felt the power surging through your body.
Red energy balled atop your stiffened finger quicker than the being could react. Just as he was about to make a move, the power moved from your hand and blasted through the subway - immediately annihilating the figure that stood before you. (AN: An important note seeing as Jogo had, like, a crap-ton of fingers: in this "AU" Nanako and Mimiko have those fingers and are feeding them to Yuji during this scene instead of just the one.)
"I'm tired of being useless..." you mumbled slouching after releasing your tensed body. Maki and Kento stood in awe while Naobito, who was now missing an arm, scoffed pathetically.
"You're not useless," Kento calmly turned to you. "You saved my life just now..."
You looked up at him, eyes glistening, and about to lean in when you all heard loud explosions come from the surface.
"We've still got work to do," Kento looked back down at you, briefly pecking your forehead. "Considering all that's happening, there's someone I'd like to try and find..."
"You're talking about the one that hurt you, huh?" You asked worriedly. "Let me come with you."
"No, this is something I need to settle on my own," he stopped you, "you should try and find Geto. You're the only one powerful enough to stop him."
"But..." you slightly whimpered, looking at him with pleading puppy dog eyes.
"I'll be okay," Kento reassured you - though there was no way to guarantee that. "I'll meet up with you on the surface, when this is all over."
With that, the two of you parted. You returned to the surface expecting to find Suguru nursing the prison realm but found him to be nowhere in sight.
You scouted the area for what felt like over an hour until you ran into him at the remains of the police station just happily standing by.
