Y/n POV

"I am sorry; I don't know what's gotten into him. I hadn't seen him like that in quite some time," Shoko says, opening the door of the infirmary in a hurry as I still try to catch my breath.

I find myself in unknown territory. How do I win them over? A few tears should be good for my weak image. I look down at my hands, they are shaking, thats not part of my act . I guess I was more scared than I realized. It's a good touch.

"Have a seat. I'll go fetch the nurse," Nanami sets me down on the couch.

"No! Please, don't bother the nurse." I put both my hands up. "I'm okay." I clean the leftover tears from my cheeks with my hands.

"Are you sure?" Nanami says as he inspects that I'm still in one piece.

"If he had used full force, I wouldn't be conscious right now." I make a small smile as if I'm trying to reassure them. "I don't even know why I am crying. I just... It was really scary." I sniffle.

Shoko sits next to me and grabs my shoulder.

"Any sane person would shit themselves in your position. Don't think about it too much." Shoko looks at the window. "Don't think I'm defending that jerk for what I am about to say, but being the strongest has its downsides." Shoko sighs. "He has had a rough time in the past."

I look at her, hoping she elaborates, but she remains quiet as she gazes off.

"He saw you as a threat," Nanami catches my attention again as he stares me up and down, his tone fo voice confused. "I don't know why on earth he did; maybe he really lost his mind with all that sugar." Nanami leans back on the wall.

I look down at my weak constitution, created by the constant starvation forced upon me by the higher-ups to keep my weak facade. "Maybe this was because of my father. I know there are people that hate me for that." I continue my act.

Nanami sighs. "Whatever it was, be careful. I've never seen him act like that."

Shoko hands me her phone. "Add me. If he bothers you again, call us. We will talk to him."

As im about to smile, the door of the infirmary opens, my stomach falls to the ground as my father walks inside,and suddenly, I actually want to cry as I try not to move a single inch, my eyes welling up.

"Could you two let me have a talk with my daughter, please?" My father approaches me, placing a hand on my cheek.

I hand Shoko her phone back, trying to hide the now obvious shaking of my hand. They both mumble a excuse me and close the door behind them.

Don't leave...

As they leave, my heart beats rapidly against my chest as I force myself to look up at him. A few seconds pass, and he looks back at the door, making sure they are far gone before he delivers a sharp slap to my cheek that makes me fall to the floor.

"What did you do?" Yaga stands over me.

I look up at him as I crawl back up, getting on my knees. My lips tremble as I feel the binding vow taking effect, my airways burning as I try to fight it enough time to find a good excuse for myself. Even though I know it's futile, I know what's coming, no matter what I say. My eyes tear up as the blood accumulates in my esophagus, the feeling of it coming up my throat makes me fold.

"I touched him," I cough up blood onto the floor as I breathe deeply, feeling the blood pool on my stomach. The pain  slowly subsides.

Yaga sits on the chair with a smile. "You made it through his limitless," he chuckles loudly. "I knew it... I was right about you" he leans back, opening his pocket.

I go pale as he brings out my punishment. My breath hitches as tears cloud my vision.

"I wish we could celebrate, but you know we can't ignore the fact you were careless." He activates the technique suppression chamber. "Don't forget how passing his limitless felt; it makes you one step closer to your freedom... of course that is after he is dealt with."

The cold cube grows larger and blocks my vision as it seals me in.

"No! Please!" My nails dig into the carnous structure of it as i desperately try to force my way out. "I swear it won't happen again; he bumped into me. I really didn't know he would get that close, please!" My feet sink into the ground as vines rise along my form. "Please, father, don't let me-" Tears fall from my eyes as the structure covers my mouth, the smell making me gag as it pulls me inside.

I know the rules, beat the curses inside to be released.
