Kind Words (Toge Inumaki)

Chapter Five

"Monkey got what she deserved," he said. I glared at him.

"Oh yeah?!" I said, and my eyes started glowing. Lend me both your eyes Shiryoku. He's too strong for the minuscule amount of your powers I have right now. You'll only have 15 minutes until I have to restore your eye, or you'll pass out from the drain it'll take on your body. That's a risk I'll take. He can't have Yuta or kill Maki, I'll make sure of it. As you wish young miss.

"Shattered sight," I said, opening my eyes in that familiar matching shade of purple. Geto stopped, but it was too late for me; he had already summoned a curse. I used shattered sight on him while I chose to exorcise the other curse with just my scythes.

I made the mistake of moving my sight from Geto's frozen form to the curse that was behind me, and Geto landed a hard punch to my back that sent me tumbling across the roof of the building. I curled up in pain from the punch that could've broken my back, luckily it didn't. I dragged myself up.

Young miss use my spider eyes this will be the only way you'll stop him for long enough. You have 60 percent of my power currently that will allow you to use it, but you won't be able to do anything else you'll have to make it count.

I weighed my options while Geto and I traded blows back and forth. If I used them it would make it easier for me to win but would incapacitate me for the rest of the night and there was no guarantee it would work against him, and then what? Would he kill me to take the curse housed inside me? Would I never get to see Toge again? I couldn't let him touch Yuta. He was just like me and he reminded me of a brother I never had. If I didn't do this would it be worse than if I did? I kicked Geto away from me with immense force having made my decision. I sheathed my scythes.

"Giving up already, Satsuki?" He asked. My eyes were shut tightly so I could call upon the new ability Shiryoku revealed to me.

"Hardly... Spider eyes!" I yelled and I opened my eyes to reveal bright blue eyes with three pupils in both irises. "Red threads of destruction!" I yelled caging Geto in blood-red threads that were like steel to the touch. Just as I pulled them taut against him I could feel the blood run down my face. No no, not yet. I can't be at my limit yet. I need to get to my dad. We had so many memories to make. I need to see Toge again. I don't know what I feel for him, but I don't want it to stop.

"Reaching your limit, huh Satsuki?!" Geto yelled, breaking the threads around him. My eyes felt heavy. I stood before him, my head hung low with blood pouring out of my eyes. This was it I was going to die without ever seeing my Dad again, without ever seeing Toge again. The wall next to me broke open, and my eyes shot open in shock. What was Panda doing here?

"Toge!" Panda yelled. Wait, Toge was here too? "Pay attention."

"Crumble away!" Toge yelled from behind me. I turned to him, my eyes back to normal and bleeding. "It's ok Satsu. I'm here now."

"I know... I'm so glad..." I said falling down over his shoulder, falling unconscious.

"I've got you. I'll always have you so just rest," was the last thing I heard before being consumed by the darkness.

You have done well with my power, Young miss. Instead of only 20 percent of my power, I will now gift you 50 percent of my power easily.

When I woke up I was met with worried purple eyes that brightened when they met mine which I knew looked different. I sat up easily, looking away from him with a bright red blush on my face only to be met by Maki's smirking face.

"C'mon you guys, we gotta go find Yuta," she said. I tried to stand, and Toge stopped me, turning around so I could climb on his back since he knew my eyes were exhausted. We all ran to where Yuta layed on the ground asking if he was alright.

"You guys..." Yuta said, launching himself into a sitting position. "Your wounds! Maki, Inumaki, Satsuki. Ah! Panda you arm!"

"No worries, we're in better shape than you," Maki said smiling.

"Unlike these guys, my arm can be replaced. Thanks for saving us," Panda said.

"Don't worry about me, and my eyes I'll be fine. Thanks for healing me, though we have the same technique so I didn't really need it," I said smiling softly, my eyes opening slightly to look at his scruffed-up figure.

"Yeah..." Yuta said.

"Yuta," Rika said.

"Sorry to keep you waiting, Rika," Yuta said, getting up from his seated position.

"What's wrong Yuta," Maki asked. Yuta visibly flinched.

"Umm, in exchange for her powers... I agreed to go with her..." He said.

"What?! No, you can't go!" I yelled from my place on Toge's back reaching for the back of his white shirt.

"You mean death?!" Panda yelled in protest

"What're you thinking?!" Maki yelled as we all grabbed onto the back of his coat to stop him, but then the curse crumbled in front of us to reveal a little girl.

"Huh, Rika?" Yuta asked. I stared at the child in shock.

"Congrats the curse is broken," my dad said, appearing out of nowhere without his bandages.

"Who're you?" Yuta, Maki, and Panda asked while Toge stood there confused.

"Dad?" I asked.

"You're favourite good-lookin Gojo sensei!" He then went on to explain how Yuta was a super distant relative of his and that Yuta did, in fact, curse Rika.

"Wait a minute," I said looking at my father.

"Yes, my beautiful daughter?" dad said.

"If Yuta is a distant relative of yours..." I said.

"Yeaaah,"

"And I'm your daughter..."

"Adopted, but yes,"

"That means Yuta is my cousin!" I shouted with stars in my eyes.

"Not exactly-" he said, waving his arms in slight shock at my sudden conclusion.

"Nope! Yuta is officially my cousin! I won't accept anything else!" I said.

"Oh cool!" Yuta said high-fiving me. I nodded, smiling at him.

"Now Toge give me my daughter. I need her," Dad said, reaching for me.

"Bonito flakes," Toge said, hugging me to his chest. My face exploded with a blush.

"Good luck with that Gojo he hasn't let her go since she passed out earlier," Panda said, and if it was possible my face felt like it was turning even redder than it already was. My dad pouted, and I tapped Toge's arm.

"You can let me go Toge," I said.

"But-but I thought I was gonna lose you. I hate not going on missions with you. I was so worried I'd never see you again," he said. I smiled at him, gently removing his arms from around me.

"I know, and we can talk later. I was born a reverse-curse user after all so Shoko needs me too," I said and took my father's hand, and he warped us away.

"So you like Toge?" my dad asked seriously. I stared up at him in shock. Is that what I've been feeling? That would explain the worry and the way my heart felt. I smiled at him.

"Yeah I guess I do," I said smiling up at him.
