Old Friend [Sukuna And OC] - A Jujutsu Kaisen Fanfiction

~11~

As the days passed, Amaya's presence became more and more usual for the students, who Saw her as one of their allies.

Sukuna still refused to show his face, which caused his friend continuous pain.

Missions were simple, and kind of boring for a special grade curse like her.

She began questuoning her décisions, asking herself if she was right to come here.

She heard footsteps behind her, and looked towards the sound.

Satoru Gojo, who lost his usual happy face, tried to catch up with her.

- Amaya, I need your help... he declared. I recently accepted a mission, and wanted to send Megumi, Nobara and Yuji. I will be working at another place, so I can't come, and few exorcists are free to go. However, the curse we seek to find might me a special grade, who appeared in an old abandonned school. My students can't fight it alone, they'll be killed... Could you please go with them and take care of it yourself ?

She nodded.

- Sure, I can go, I was pretty bored either way, she answered.

The teacher hid his smile, and took her to the teenagers. After he explained them the mission, he left Amaya take care of them as they walked towards the old school.

They began talking about a lot of things she didn't know much about, like cinema or places to eat.

When they arrived in front of the building, they stopped. A menacing aura came off the windows.

Megumi summoned the certain, as they entered by an old door without much hesitation.

Nobara seemed ready to throw her needles, while Yuji had a calm and serious expression.

They followed the path left by the curse, and soon heard creepy sounds. Something in the shadows was ready to attack them from behind their backs AT any moment. In such a crowded city, the curse had an easy access to the population.

Amaya approached a door, trying to hear something.

- Are you ready ? she asked as she looked at the exorcists.

They nodded. She slowly opened the door, followed by the others.

A pale light coming from outside lightened a large cafeteria. Some chairs and tables were upside down, revealing someone's presence.

A strange being stood by tge window, playing with the furniture. As soon as the group entered, it began smiling, and jumped towards its ennemies. The curse didn't seem able to think like a human, but was still really fast. It charged its fists with cursed energy to make it explode.

The exorcists and their friend had no difficulty dodging it, few times.

However, each wound healed itself quickly.

Amaya hit her opponent a few times, offering no real demonstration of her strength. But this time, the curse didn't want to leave any of them alone.

Remembering her previous mistake, when she was forced to call Sukuna, the young woman sighed. Her friend wouldn't want to help her now.

She had to protect the students alone.

- Step back ! she yelled at them. I don't want you to be caught in my techniques...

The three students opened their eyes wide.

- Nobody asked you to take care of it alone ! Nobara shouted.

However, Megumi stopped her.

- Let's listen to her plan, and help her if needed, he decided.

The others nodded, and took a few steps backwards.

A small hein appeared on Amaya's lips. The room was big enough for her allies to be out of her technique's range.

- Domain expansion... she said in a lowered voice. Increasing pressure.

A sphere formed itself around the two curses. The pressure quickly became more intense, as her ennemy's body froze. It couldn't move anymore. Amaya, however, seemed pretty capable of fight. She was used of using it, and it didn't affect her much.

Amaya hit her opponent many times, the curse couldn't fight back. After a few minutes, it disappeared, as the domain did the same. Amaya stretched her arms, trying to adapt to the air's pressure. She couldn't react quickly after such a technique.

Before she could sense it, a blade stabbed her in the back. She fell on the ground.
