We were all heading back after training. I was walking with Toge. "Salmon roe", he said pointing at our shoes. "Now, you're talking my style", I said. "Tuna mayo", he smiled. Shoe shopping was one of the many things that kept this best friendship going. Trust me. You will never see a day where Toge and I aren't rocking dope kicks.

"How about tomorrow?", I asked. "Salmon", he agreed. By then, we had reached my dorm. "Bye", I waved goodbye to him. "Kelp", he returned a close-eyed smile as he left. I shut the door and entered my room.

After a day of training, we had all returned to our dorms to get some shut-eye. But then of course, there was me who simply never went to sleep on time. I was still in my clothes from earlier on as I read a book on my bed when I suddenly heard a voice from next to me.

"Still awake I see" I turned my head to see my dad standing there with Itadori. Itadori was staring around in confusion. "Dad, what are you doing here and why did you bring him?", I asked referring to Itadori. "I wanted to show you both something as a learning experience if you're willing to come", he told me.

With that, I immediately closed my book. "Say no more. I wasn't going to sleep anytime soon anyway", I got up. With that, Dad held my hand and held Itadori by the collar with his other hand. By the time I blinked, we had appeared somewhere completely different. This was nothing new to me but I could see Itadori was even more flabbergasted.

When we floated down, I immediately activated my own floating and hovered above the water like dad. "Sorry about that", Dad told whatever was standing in front of me. Itadori was still mega confused. To be honest, I also did not understand what was going on. Where were we and who was this volcano head standing in front of me? Oh, wait, it's a Cursed Spirit.

"To observe, I've brought Yuji Itadori and my daughter Tsumuji Gojo", Dad said. I just stared at the volcano head Cursed Spirit in front of me while Itadori pointed and said, "Mt. Fuji! His head's Mt. Fuji!" I mean, he was kinda right though. His head did look an awful lot like Mt. Fuji.

Dad let Itadori go while he nonchalantly stood on the surface of the water. I followed suit setting foot on the water. With our technique, we had made the surface of the water like solid so we could stand on it. Itadori was confused and shocked at this mechanism. "The hell's this? How come I'm not sinking?", he asked.

"Gojo, I, we were at the school ten seconds ago, right?", he asked Dad. "Not to butt in but I think there are more pressing matters here", I said referring to the Cursed Spirit still standing in front of us. "What'd you bring the kids for? Shields?", Mt. Fuji asked. I just laughed at this. Hey, it was pretty funny. Yeah, I get it from my dad.

"Shields? No, no, I already explained this. They're just here to watch", Dad explained. He really had that teacher side to him, huh? "You see, I'm in the midst of teaching Yuji here a lot of things while Tsumuji here needs as much hands-on experience as she can get, so, forget about 'em, let's just fight", he further elaborated.

"Having them tag along with you isn't gonna slow you down? Makes you look like an idiot", Cursed Spirit cockily addressed Dad. "Oh no, it'll all be fine", Dad responded. The way they're just having a casual chat here in the midst of a fight. But just then, Dad dropped the usual bombshell that still never ceased to get me, "I mean, really, you're kinda weak" At this, I just had to cover my mouth as I muttered, "Burn"

The Cursed Spirit exploded at this, literally. Lava burst everywhere. "How dare you insult me like that, you insolent ass?! I'm going to enjoy tearing off that smug face of yours!", Mt. Fuji thundered as lava burst out of his head and ears. He looked like a real life cartoon right now. Oh, I was going to enjoy watching this fight.

Dad just patted Itadori on the head telling him, "You'll be fine. Just stay here close to me" Hmm, quite the close teacher-student relationship we've got here. Ugh. Well, I don't really care anyway. "The same goes for you, Tsu", Dad told me. "I know", I simply retorted.
