A place to be hidden...(Book #2)

      The man scrambled away and Sukuna walked off with both the fruit and the papers of his ownership of his childhood home. Sukuna walked to the house and smiled warmly.

      He gently placed a hand on one of the walls.

     "You'll be fixed, don't you worry" He said.

    Sukuna then walked away, putting his hood up and walking back to that little cottage where Pepper was waiting.

     Rin packed his bags, he decided to ask his brother for help in person rather than through the phone. Rin slung the bag of extra clothes over his shoulder and he walked out of the room, Kuro laying peacefully on his shoulders. 

    "Where are you going?" Nobara asked.

    "To True Cross, I believe I should ask him in person" He said.

    She nodded "Okay, try to have fun, I'll tell Gojo where you are when he returns" She said.

    Rin nodded and walked off, Kuro meowing at Nobara as a quick bye. Which, she said bye to Kuro before they both were out of sight. Rin walked to the train station and got on the one that led to True Cross. 

     It'll probably be dark when they arrive, but oh well, who cares. He went on the train and sat somewhere random. Kuro hopped off Rin's shoulders and sat next to him. 

    "Can I pet him?" Asked a small voice. 

    Both Kuro and Rin faced who it was, and it was a small, orange haired girl, she looked to be around 6 or 7. Rin smiled.

    "Sure you can, is that fine Kuro?" Rin asked as he faced Kuro.

    Kuro happily nodded. And the girl beamed with a happy expression and started to gently pet Kuro. Kuro purred under he tiny touch and she giggled.

    "What's your cat's name?" She asked.

    "Kuro" He answered.

    "Such a pretty name for a pretty kitty" She said.

    Rin smiled at her cuteness. But then, he had a thought. Was he like this when he was younger? Rin honestly couldn't remember. Those memories started to fade, the only ones that even bothered to stay were the ones that Rin had gotten into fights.

     Rin shook the thoughts out of his mind for know, right now, he was enjoying the little girls company.

    "What's your name mister?" She asked.

    "Rin, Rin Itadori" He said.

    "Cool name!" She said.

    Rin then had the look of a saddened smile "Yea, I guess it is" He said. 

    "Did I say something wrong?" She asked.

    "No, I just remembered something" He said.

    "Oh, well, sorry if I made you remember something" She said, with a sad look.

    Rin patted her head "No need, it happens, nothing to do with you" He said.

    Soon the train stopped "Oh! This is my stop, bye Itadori! Bye Kuro!" She said as she ran off to her parents that were sitting across from them watching over her.

    Rin waved bye to the little girl as both her parents and her got off the train. Now it was only Rin and Kuro on the train. Rin sighed and leaned back. Rin closed his eyes, it's honestly been what? months since he last seen Yukio.
