A bleak smile graced her lips, looking down at her hands she whispered, "I don't even remember their voices if I'm being honest, I was such a bad daughter and sister, Sukuna,"

The boy with pink hair listened intently to each word leaving her mouth, he was not expecting she'll be so lonely, "But I'm lucky to have friends like Maria and Mary, you don't know them but those girls are like my sisters, I love them more than anything, I don't know what I'll do if something happens to them,"

"You are a depressing nuisance, you know that?"

(Name) is surprised at the lack of empathy but when she looked into his eyes, she saw understanding and that is enough, but she feigned to be hurt, "Huh? At least say something nice! You are so mean---"

"But I suppose it's a part of your charm," he smirked, "what are looking at? Want me to praise you more?"

"you are hopeless,"

"Hah, I know,"

"Well, look at the time," (Name) looked at her smartphone to check the time, "I should get going now," she stood up, looking around to find Yuji, "where did Yuji go?"

"He'll be here somewhere with his new friends,"

"You should sound concerned, you know," she heard an outcry coming from some distance and they both ran to follow the screaming.

They found Yuji and another boy fighting a group of boys who seemed a year or so older. "Yuji---" Sukuna grabbed her wrist, stopping her, "we should stop them---"

She looked at the group, the older boys are getting beaten by Yuji and the other boy.
"don't tell me you thought the six-year-old to fight?!"

Sulu smiled smugly, "it was to only use your skills in self-defense,"

"Of course, it was," she forced her wrist out of his steel grasp and ran towards the kids and grabbed the black-haired boy who is pummeling the other kids with powerful punches, "hey kid, calm down!" in the haste to get out of her grasp, the boy accidentally punched her.

(Name) yelped in pain, but didn't let go of the boy. Sukuna on the other hand, motioned for Yuji to let you off the boy he is beating up. "Bro-Bro, they started it!"

"I believe you, Yuji,"

"Aren't you going to ask them what happened?" (Name) asked, holding her nose that is hurting severely. The other boys scurried off seeing the adults getting involved.

"Bro-Bro, the bad guys tried stealing my Chocolates but this boy..." he points at the boy standing beside them, "...he told them to give me back but when they didn't he punched one and I punched another, and then---"

"We get it, Yuji," He turns to the boy, leaning over his knees to take a look at the damage done to Yuji's accomplice, "what's your name, chap?"

"Fushiguro,"

"Okay, Fushiguro, where are your parents?" (Name) asked, placing a hand over his shoulders and leading them out of the park.

"I don't know," he slapped her hand away.

"Where do you live?"

"In a house,"

"Where is your house?"

"It's where I live,"

"Where back at where we started,"

"Megumi?" a voice called, they all turned in the direction of the voice. It's a man, a very tall man, even taller than instructor Miche. The man had dark hair that is laying over his forehead and a scar just by his lips.

"Who are you?" Sukuna asked, getting in front of the three of them. He didn't like the ambiance this man is delivering.

"Who are these people, Megumi?"

The young boy stepped towards the man, "No one, Father,"

"Right, come on, we need to go," he turned to them, smiling, "I'm sorry for all the trouble he must have caused," he stepped up to (Name), "here, your nose is bleeding," he is holding a handkerchief to her.

(Name) a hand flew to her face, and soon her fingertips are painted red, "wow, I did not notice," she mumbled, and the mysterious man brushed her dripping blood with the soft material, "thank you," she clasped the cloth to her nose.

"No problem, Miss."

"Father, let's go,"

"Alright, Megumi," the older man and the young boy walked side by side, the trio watched them as they disappeared around the corner.

"That was some strong aura,"

Yuki mumbled grabbing the hem of her shirt, "Scary man,"

The man wearing white trousers and a black shirt was a little too tight on his frame and entered the living room with bags of groceries in his arms.

"Good to catch sight of your majestic life,"

The shorter man was leaning on the doorframe of the kitchen, his grey eyes just as dead as ever.

"what brought you here, partner?"

"I need information, and I'm not your partner,"

"Information regarding what? What makes you believe I'll give you the information you need?"

"I know you, Toji," the short man took out a handful of money from his inside pocket, "tell me what I wanna know,"

"I'm so pissed you never learned how I operate even after working with you for years, Levi,"

"I don't have time for your bullshit,"  he took out another handful of money from his pocket, throwing it on the first bundle, "I wanna know everything about (Name) (Last Name),"

Toji tapped his chin, he pretended to think for a while, "well, never heard of that name ever in my life,"

"Not even in the underground?"

"If you are that desperate why not go underground yourself?"

"forget about it," Levi Ackerman huffed, walking to the door. The taller man was surely not being genuine in his words, just as Levi expected him to act.

"wait, I'll do what I can but not make any promises, Levi," He left his house, Toji will only do the task assigned if that benefits him.

When Levi was gone, Toji leaned back on his couch, "sorry, Levi but an assassin will never say his task out loud unless it's accomplished," he stretched his limbs, laying back he noticed his son was nowhere in sight, "where did that brat go off to?"
