Chapter nine

"I know Sukuna will not murder me, but I know he will not hesitate to pick a fight with someone, not only as powerful as you, but you are a loophole to inflicting emotional pain on me" You explain, grabbing Kaito.

"I have no issue taking this Sorcerer in a fight-"

"I will not be able to live with myself if either one of my friends are killed" You cut him off and rather than arguing, he nods his head.

"What an interesting surprise." A sinister voice chimes.

"Sukuna! My dear companion. Do you care for a Dango?" Gojo grabs you firmly, you feel the immense energy emitting from both of them, Sukuna's bloodlust growing larger by the second.

"No need, (y/n). He can help himself to what he likes. We were just leaving."

"So soon, sorcerer?" Sukuna moves too fast for your eyes to keep up with and he then reside directly in front of you and Gojo. "Let's not ruin the fun."

Before you could process, you were shoved to the side. So hard that you landed several feet away from the altercation and a harsh gasp from the wind leaving your body.

Sukuna had attempted a swipe at Kaito's face. His true form visible to you and i'm sure to Kaito as well. Kaito's reflexes were sharp and he swiftly dodged, warping to you and covering your eyes with his hand.

"hold on."

The ground felt different beneath you. It was no longer grass but rather hardwood.

You also felt incredibly nauseated.

Gojo took his hand from your eyes and the near surrounding was revealed to be his office.

Kaito immediately grabbed ahold of both your shoulders, making you tense.

"Are you alright??" He lifted up the side of your kimono which made your face heat. You could recognize he was now in doctor mode, no intent behind his actions other than treating and medicine. Though, you couldn't help but feel flushed.
"You're bruised."

"I'm sure it's fine..." In reality it hurt pretty bad. You didn't want to trouble Gojo any further today.

"It looks like you've damaged yourself pretty good. This is my fault, i'm sorry." His voice became hushed in what seemed embarrassment. "Let me make it up to you by giving you a small check up at least."

You nod your head, compliant with his request.

"You shouldn't go around that monster." He stated suddenly after a few minutes of silence. "He's dangerous." His brows furrowed in concentration as he searched for further damage to your body.

"He is dangerous, yes. But a monster? Oh no. He is a human just like you and me. He doesn't like to show it but he feels emotion, just like you. And just like me." Your voice grew soft at the mentionings of Ryomen Sukuna.

-

A gush of wind blew harshly past you, your hair all blowing to the side.

Your hair then being gripped and head banged against the ground was a swift wake up call.

You gasp at the impact. And gasp again at your head being lifted and red eyes staring into yours.

You had come to the hill this afternoon, not knowing whether or not you should expect Sukuna. I guess your question was now answered.

"Taking a creep to the hill i try to find serenity in. You're bad enough, I don't need a pearl headed, head over heals doof here as well." Sukuna scowled, his grip growing tighter.

"You know, Sukuna....If I didn't know any better, I'd say you seem jealous."

Sukuna couldn't believe what he was hearing.

He took his large hand to your throat, lifting you off the ground and forcing your back harshly against the tree.

"Jealous? Know your place." He sneered. "You have no place in my life, foolish girl. You're lucky I keep you alive."

You unintentionally wheezed at his grip tightening and your throat closing more and more.

He glared into your eyes moments more before letting you collapse to the floor.

It pisses Sukuna off enough he cared you took another man to this hill, but even more so that you made vile accusations.

"You're right." You managed to muster a few words, your throat aching. Sukuna turned with brows furrowed. "I am foolish. But you are no monster. You would be foolish to believe I truly have no place in your life. And I would be foolish to think you didn't feel anything other than bloodlust and rage at the hill when Gojo was here."

Your stubborn glare just pissed him off further. A fucking intolerable brat is what you were to him and you insisting there was something more to that was ludicrous.

Sukuna glanced at the marks he left on your throat. You were a delicate thing but didn't falter even under the harshest of abuses from him. You were physically delicate but internally strong, staying by him even when he literally shoves you away.

Sukuna didn't know what to make of this.

He thinks back to the rage he felt at the man who attempted a spear in your direction.

This was all making his head hurt.

Sukuna released an exasperated sigh. Sitting down, he grabbed your wrist and pulled you from where you were to beside him.

He kept a distance between you two, he only brought you to him because the way you had been on the floor trying his patience and glaring up at him was getting on his nerves.

No other reason.
