the world burns, our hearts churn.

"Would you run away with me, y/n?"

She looked up at him finally. Her troubled mind working. Tumbling. She watched his eyes. He was being serious. Their looks at one another differeing greatly. For he was serious, determined and she was broken, her eyes glossy from tears.

And then she found herself smiling. Her mind working until she found a perfect solution. Her arms reaching up to wrap around his neck as she stood on her toes. Her lips pressing to his own as his eyes widened. Though, as soon as the kiss began, she was quick to pull away. One of her hands going to his forehead to push away his hair.

"You should leave, protect yourself. Find somewhere to hide ... maybe even find someone to team up with awhile. To live a life far from Sukuna's domain."

She took a breath. Her hands shaky as his body started to go limp.

"You should live happily somewhere. Somewhere ... where the world was fine. There should be some safe spots farther north."

She let go of him. Took a few steps back as she held her hands behind her back. A smile still decorating her face.

"You should be far, far away from Sukuna's grasp. Understood?"

"Y-yes."

He gripped his heart. His soul being forcefully changed even though he didn't want it to. He tried to resist her ability, but ... he couldn't.

"But why? Why, y/n?"

"Because ... I couldn't protect Yūji, but i'll definitely protect you Fushi—," she closed her eyes and chuckled to herself, "I mean, Megumi. Now, it's time for you to go. Lead the survivors somewhere safe. Live happily. Protect them. And find someone nice. Someone that isn't me."

She finally understood why she liked his soul. Why his soul seemed to calm her so much.

She liked him.

Too bad she didn't realize it sooner.

Too bad she didn't realize thatbshe actually gave a damn about things.

"Goodbye Megumi! Breathe for us both, ok?"

"Wha- what are you going to do," he asked. A particular his original still resisted. He needed to know her answer before he was forced to leave her.

"I'm going to go and get Gojo. Ok? So, please don't worry about a thing."

And before he knew it, his whole soul was changed. His priorities being diverted fully as he found himself stumbling passed her. Her eyes following after him.

"Live ... happily ... Megumi."
