Running.


That's all you could do as you raced through the woods. Your legs burn and your muscles are starting to cramp, getting short of breath. You turn around, seeing figures moving fast through the trees, chasing after you. Scanning the area, you tried to look for Sukuna. Where was he? Is he hurt? Did the orb make something stronger and kill him?


"Sukuna where are you?!" You screamed, looking everywhere.


They were getting closer.


They were getting closer!


Quickly, you climb onto a tree to avoid the most painful death you never wanted to experience again. As you grab a branch you feel a hand grab you by your ankle and try to yank you down. "Let me go!" You screamed, kicking your foot to get free. Glancing down, you pull your foot forward before kicking it back to kick the zombie in the face as hard as you can.


Now free, you climb faster and soon make it to the top. As you stand on the thick branches, you overlook the woods and try to search for any sight of pink hair. It was cold, your only clothing is a black, long-sleeved shirt that's been ripped to shreds.


As you turn around, a hand suddenly reaches out and grabs you by the throat. You gagged and choked as the person cut off your oxygen. Still holding you by the throat, the person moves your body to dangle you over the branch, right beneath you is the horde. Your toes dug into the branch, trying to stay on it as this stranger has your life in his hand.


When they leaned forward, the lighting from the moon revealed Akihiro's face. Your eyes widen, your body freezing in fear as you stare into his eyes.


"Missed me, darling?" He asked, grinning maliciously.


"We...k-killed you," You choked out, your nails digging into his skin. He smirked at your pathetic attempt to get him to let you go. But if he does let you go, you'll fall into the flesh-eating decaying corpses below you. "You did, but you won't get rid of me that easily, I'll always be a part of you Y/N," Akihiro said, leaning in.


Just as you see black spots in your vision he lets you go and you fall. Your body slams into branches, feeling your bones snap and possibly fracturing and impaling you on the inside. Despite this, you desperately tried to grab onto any branch. Your face slams into a branch and before you fall, you dig your nails into the branch. This made your fingernails rip and tear off your fingers, but it made you not fall to the ground. You dangle off of the branch, and your legs are wrapped around the branch as you hang upside down on the branch. Oh god, you're too close to the ground for your liking. The growling and snarling made you look down and suddenly your hair was grabbed and pulled your head back. A strangled-out cry escapes your lips as you are violently pulled back and you feel hands grab at your body.
