F - There's a... curse here.

"You liar!" Kugisaki and Yuuji exclaimed

Y - This isn't Roppongi

N - It's a cruel move to toy with country folk

Both of them looked at me, encouraging me to complain to my father as well. I just sighed.

K - There's a big cemetery nearby. That plus an abandoned building equals a curse.

I spoke as Kugisaki continued her tantrum behind us. 

Y - So, they pop up more often around graves. Wow, how'd you know that Karma-chan? We only got here yesterday and we haven't learnt anything yet.

F - It's not the cemetery itself. It's the fact that people associate cemeteries with fear and uneasiness.

Y - Right, it was the same for schools two. Wasn't it?

N - Wait, hold up here. He didn't even know that yet? 

F - To be honest...

N - They swallowed a special grade cursed object?! GROSS! That's so disgusting and unsanitary I wanna hurl! No way! No way! No way! No way!

Y - THAT'S NOT NICE!

F - I agree with her, gomen Karma-san.

Everyone turns to look at me, to see I was already looking at my shoes.

N - Oh, I'm so sorry! I didn't mean to offend you. 

Y - What?! So, you aimed that only me?!

N - Yes! I want to be her friend!

I feel a tap on my shoulder, I look up to see none other than my dad. I give him a sad smile, he gives me a sympathetic look.

G - Hey, you know what? I thought what you did was really brave and ballsy. So, who cares what other people think? 

He whispers. I give him a more enthusiastic smile and hug him discreetly. 

K - Thank you, dad.

G - Anytime. 

He stands back up and stands in front of me once again. I look to the side, to see Megumi-san already looking at me, he gives me a small smile and mouths 'sorry, i didn't mean to offend you.' I mouth back 'it's fine, i guess i need to get used to it.'

G - I want to know what the 4 of you are capable of. Juust think of this as a kind of "field test". Nobara, Yuuji, and Karma go exorcise the curse inside that building.

Kugisaki groans, I believe in disgust at having to work with the two people who ate a cursed finger...

Y - Hold on, I thought only curses could exorcise curses. Karma and I can't use Jujutsu yet.

G - If you look at it, both you and Karma are basically half a curse already. Cursed energy flows through your body. Although, controlling that energy isn't something you can learn overnight. So, use this.

I look towards Megumi, he looks uncertain and displeased at this action... and actually a little bit scared. While, Yuuji looks at the sheathed weapon with excitement and wonder.

G - This... is 'Slaughter Demon'

It has a name? pfft- it's a pretty cool name though... I look down at my katana thinking if I should name it as well...

G - Karma-chan, don't worry I didn't forget about you. Here, this is thun-

K - Umm. Would this work instead?

I unsheathed my katana as everyone just stares at me in disbelief.

Everyone elses POV:

*WHY DOES SHE HAVE A KATANA ON HER PERSON? AND WHAT IS WITH THAT INNOCENT LOOK IN HER EYES?!*

Back to Karma's POV:

G - U-uh, can I see that for a second?

I hand him my katana as he stares at with wide eyes. (She can see his eyes through their blindfolds)

G - K-Karma, where'd you get this?

K - I've had it ever since I was given to Ms. Mitsuki. She said that mum left it in my carrier when she gave me up.

Dad stares at the weapon, tears brimming his eyes.

G - Haha, this'll work perfectly Karma-chan. 

He says as he hands back the weapon with every ounce of care he can muster.

N - Ugh, how lame. "Slaughter Demon"? C'mon lets get this done with.

G - Oh, one more thing. Don't let Sukuna out, okay? If you two use him, he'll get rid of all the curses in this area. But, anyone nearby will get dragged in.

Y - You got it, we won't let him out.

N - Would you hurry it up?!
Y - Alright, alright.

G - Have fun, okay Karma-chan you need to go to just stick with Nobara, kay?

I nod at him before finding myself walking along side Kugisaki

N - Wah! When did you get there?!
K - Just then, let me introduce myself properly. Kon'nichiwa, watashinonamaeha Gojo Karma desu. (Hello, my name is Gojo Karma.) It's a pleasure to meet you.

N - Hehe, Kugisaki Nobara, it's a pleasure to meet you too. I can't wait to be your friend.

She gave me the most beautiful smile as we stopped at a stare case.
