Nobara: "Megumi, I'll be fine.
Really."

Megumi: "I want you to be careful, okay?

Gosh, he's so protective.
We have to divide into groups, and he's fussing over me now to make sure I'll be alright.

Megumi: " I'm being serious.
Don't take any major risks.
We never know what will happen.
If you can't do anything, then don't do anything.
Be careful.
Promise me that you'll leave Shibuya alive."

Nobara: "I promise.
I'll stay clear of any major threats."

"Good.
You know I want you to be safe.
I don't want this to be our last conversation."

"I understand."

He pulls me in close and gives me a kiss on my forehead before leaving.

Mahito: "Did you see that earlier?
That was crazy, wasn't it?"

Nobara: "Was it you?
Are you the special-grade cursed spirit that's been messing with our idiot?"

Mahito: "Oh my, am I famous?"

Nobara: "Yeah, for running away like a coward.
I haven't really had my time to shine tonight, so I guess exorcising you will be a good contribution."

𝐀 𝐟𝐞𝐰 𝐦𝐢𝐧𝐮𝐭𝐞𝐬 𝐥𝐚𝐭𝐞𝐫

I'm now chasing the clone of this cursed spirit into Shibuya station.
Damn, he can run quite fast.
Probably even faster than Itadori, which says a lot.
I see the clone meet what seems to be the original body, with Itadori running behind it.

Yuji: "Run, Kugisaki!"

Before I can even process what's happening, the curse comes and touches the upper left part of my face before running past me.
I put my hand over the place the curse touched, standing in silence.
I can see all my memories flashing before my eyes, especially my childhood ones with Fumi and Saori, too.
I really am gonna die, huh?
I wonder how Fumi would react when she finds out.
I promised her when I left that the next time we met, it'd be with the three of us.

"I'm sorry, Fumi.
I couldn't keep my promise."

Itadori pushes the clone aside and runs over to me.
I put my hand down and look at him with a genuine smile.
This is the last time I'll ever speak again.

Nobara: "Itadori, tell everyone this for me.
Life wasn't so bad!"

I can feel my skin in that part quickly swell up and burst.
I fall down to the ground, with a sharp flicker of pain coursing through my body.
I can only see through one eye, and my vision slowly starts blurring.
I can't feel my own body.
I can only hear Itadori's voice, as he starts breaking down, from what I can hear.
No, don't cry.
Don't cry like that.
I can't bear listening to his sobs.
All I want to do is to get up and go confort him, to tell him everything's gonna be alright.
But I can't do that, as much as I'd like to.
All I feel is silence.
A calming silence.
Pure bliss that will now be an everlasting silence for the people around me.
It's comforting.
I never knew how peaceful it would be to lie in death's cold embrace.
I've accepted death already, yet the regret of leaving everyone behind still haunts me.
I ultimately let go of that feeling as well, and let the welcoming arms of death enfold me into a heavenly delight.
