A/N: The book will follow the events of the entire Hidden Inventory Arc, but after that I'll be making some my own major changes to the plot.

                 

3rd POV:

Somewhere in Tokyo...

A loud crash can be heard for miles as a large mansion breaks down and collapses on itself. As the ruckus ceases, a woman with two fluffy ponytails, wearing a red hakama appears through the dust, at the spot where the house used to stand

This lady is Utahime Iori, a Second-Grade Jujutsu sorcerer who had visited a house due to reports of a cursed spirit.

As she crawls out from the debris, a seemingly bored voice calls out.

"I'm here to save you. Utahime."

A young man with pearl-white hair stands in front of her. Covering his eyes, are round sunglasses, yet they can't seem to hide the eyes that shine like the brightest stars in the sky. He wears a full black uniform with a golden button at the top.

Gojo Satoru. Second-Year student at Tokyo Metropolitan's Jujutsu Tech. You would think that the strongest sorcerer would be older, or even be the serious type, but Gojo Satoru is anything but serious.

Satoru leans forward with a mocking smile on his face.

"Are you crying?~"

"I'm not crying!! And be more polite!!"

Iori looks away with a huff, when another voice begins to speak.

"If I was crying, would you console me? I would certainly appreciate that."

A woman with light-blue hair tied up in a ponytail walks towards the mischievous second-year.

Mei Mei. First-Grade Jujutsu Sorcerer.
She was Iori's partner for the mission.

"Well, you wouldn't cry, Mei-san. You're strong, after all."

"Heh, is that so?"

As the two converse, several irk marks appear on the head of the annoyed bystander known as Iori. She brushes off the dirt on her dirt as she stands up, and yells.

"Gojo!! Listen here! I don't need your hel-"

Before the girl can finish her sentence, a large cursed spirit shows up behind her. Iori turns around with a look of regret on her face, but before she can do anything, A large worm appears from underneath, and clamps the spirit in its mouth.

"Don't swallow it," a fourth voice interjects, "I'll absorb it later."

Another boy walks out from the bottom of the collapsed house beside Iori.

Geto Suguru. Jujutsu Tech Second-Year. With his long hair, and earrings, he might come off as a delinquent to people who don't know him, but his charismatic personality along with his looks, almost completely ruin that interpretation.

"Satoru~ It's not nice to pick on the weak."

"What kind of idiot would pick on the strong?" Gojo counters.

"You're the one fanning the flames as it comes naturally, Geto-kun," Mei chuckles.

Poor Iori. For the entire time, she's been there simply watching as her superior, and two of her juniors make fun of her.

"Utahime-senpai~"

Said woman's expression instantly turns into one of happiness as she squeals out of sheer joy. She's saved!

"Are you okay?"

Shoko Ieiri. Jujutsu Tech Second-Year. She seems like a sweet person, and she is, but don't let that fool you. Satoru and Suguru may be stronger, but she's the only one, apart from the principal, who can handle those two. (She looks and acts way too much like Nobara, their resemblance is scary.)

"Shoko!!"

"I was worried about you." Shoko replies. "We hadn't heard from you for two whole days."

Iori doesn't pay attention to her words as she runs up towards the young girl with her arms outstretched.

"Shoko!!" Iori squeezes the girl as she tightly hugs her. "Shoko! Don't let yourself turn out like those two!" Referring to the two males present.

"Don't worry," she replies, "I won't turn into trash like them."

Said trash, mainly the white-haired male, were still making fun of the second-grade sorcerer.

"The path Utahime walked on is falling apart!~"

"Shut up!~"

Iori finally realizes what her favorite junior said as she looks back at her face.

"Hmm? Two days?"

"Ah, was the cursed spirit's barrier able to mess with time?" Satoru begins, "They're rare, but they do pop up now and then." Of course someone with a technique as rare as his would know about things like that. "I thought it was odd, since Mei-san was with you."

"Ah, seems like it was."

Satoru looks over at the mysterious woman. "Something the matter?"

"No. I just realized that means it was two days worth of labor, and that means extra fees should paid out to me."

"She's seriously planning on overcharging again," Iori says. Some people are just more attentive towards money than most. (I'm looking at you, Gojo...)

"That aside," Mei smiles as she continues to speak, "What about the veil, you three?"

The three students look over at her while Iori looks at them in confusion, as all three say a singular word.

"Ah."

                 

I've finished the first chapter of the story, I'm so happy!!

I hope it makes sense, and if there are mistakes, let me know, I'll fix them as soon as possible.
