|POLARITY| Gojo Satoru x Reader

58.

listen to something while reading, I was listening to Im your man by mitski and No light, no light by florence + the machine.

Gojo's POV

It was for a second, a fleeting moment where I thought she came to me because she was stubborn, because she wanted to annoy me by coming to flaunt her abilities. A moment that got ripped away from me the moment our eyes met.

She...

Y/n.

Something is wrong.

As the doors open, I see her. Her skin is drained from all color, covered by her hair sticking to her skin. I can't see her eyes properly, but her gaze still embeds me with an emotion so deep it feels agonizing, destroying the idea that I was ever enough for her.

My eyes trace her form to find her uniform intact. I can feel my stomach drop as I notice her hand, gripping a knife so tight her knuckles are white.

What happened to her?

"Leave the wagon," the speaker system of the whole station sounds distorted as it fills the space to the brim with cursed energy, it's everywhere.

All around me.

Untraceable.

This is part of the attack.

My eyes go back to her face as she walks, the way she moves seems wrong, almost robotic as she steps off.

"Y/n," I call for her to no avail as I get closer. Could it be the kids? I can feel my blood run cold with the thought. "Where are the kids?"

Her eyes well with tears as they look up into mine.

Her eyes...

It can't be

It can't.

It can't

It can't

It can't

No...

My feet move on their own as I get closer. I curse because I know for a fact no matter how close I get, my vision isn't playing with me, her eyes are blurred into her sclera, the familiar haze makes everything tone down; my hearing, my senses. The eyes I couldn't get off of my mind for so many years.

They are staring back at me.

The strongest...

Useless, everything I worked so hard to erase off of her, the guilt she once looked at me with is back.

I'm useless.

No.

I can feel my eyes unfocus as Iscan again, my six eyes straining as I amplify it only to find nothing. Who is commanding her, where are they? I didn't miss anyone, I couldn't have. I confirmed it so many times, everyone is dead. So how can there be someone commanding her? My six eyes scan the space to no avail, whoever it is, they're hiding their presence.

I snap back as the ringing in my ears is interrupted.

"Y/n Masamichi." The voice sounds familiar as I look back at her.

I need to prepare.

Whatever they command her to do. I'll be ready to face it.

"Kill Gojo Satoru." I can feel my mouth twitch as she looks away from me.

No...

The noise of the room dies with the sound of the knife falling to the floor.

Please... Please don't.
