Performance 06:
The Second Encounter
___________________________

After somehow managed to do his mission along with his classmates for almost two weeks since they first met, he doesn't have any desire to do it alone like he usually does. It's not that he enjoyed their company or something— well he actually does —but it's more of the lack of things he could do since there basically are four of them.

Even so, sometimes they get paired with one of their classmates to deal with other missions in a different location. To sum it up, nothing out of ordinary basically happened and he's bored as fuck.

"Give me a bullshit and I'm outta here" he sighed internally and stood up from his place, catching Fushiguro's attention since he's sitting beside him.

Currently, he was getting paired with the more level-headed person in their group to collect some material Ieiri-san needed— which is easier than killing some curses, but for some reason didn't put his mind at ease.

It's just like how people say: calm before the storm. And the thing that intrigued him is that he particularly doesn't know what kind of storm he will eventually face, or how much impact it'll have on him. All he knows is that he has a bad feeling swirling deep in the pit of his stomach, and he can't help but feel slightly excited about what is about to come.

***

[Last Name] [Name] is a calm individual with a simple demeanor— if you're putting aside the fact that he technically is double-faced, then you wouldn't have a hard time getting along with him. Though, the same thing wouldn't work with Itadori Yuuji— someone who has known the boy from previous High School.

Itadori himself wasn't quite close or even befriended with him. Heck, the conversation that night was the first time he had talked with him. He mostly knew about the [Hair Color] haired boy from the rumours and chit chat from his friends. Aside from that, [Last Name] [Name]'s being is completely out of his radar.

But now that the table has turned, his life will never be the same. His grandpa has died. His seniors from Occult Club were attacked by an ugly creature called curse, and now that he has been given a life sentence for his previous action, things have surely changed.

He should've known that involving himself in this world is basically making himself as a bait for the greater danger, more than the curses he fights before he chose to swallow Sukuna's finger. But his grandpa's final words remain in his head.

Save people he said, what a joke. But even until his last moment, he truly admired the father figure of his even if he didn't admit it.

So when his life flashed before his eyes, the final request to save people, even if it was just one person, remains in his head.

But he's still a person, a teenager on top of that. The concept of death would get the best of him, and in his current state there's nothing to save himself.

He heard the wolf's howl, meaning that they were already outside waiting for his return. At least he knows that both Fushiguro and Kugisaki are safe. All that's left is him, and the cursed spirit in front of him. His hope had gone long before he told Fushiguro to leave. And now, nobody could save him.

Despite her strong cursed technique, Kugisaki must've been worn out since she's fallen into nowhere and knowing the circumstances, there most likely are curses waiting to ambush her. [Name] is out of the list since he had been called to a different location before the mission started. And from the previous event, Fushiguro is incapable of coming back. He doesn't even know if the shadow shikigami is willing to save him for the second time.
