Crimson Tides (Malereader X JJK)

Chapter ~ 14

(Not proofread)

The Yemon brothers sat in a makeshift clinic together, silent as can be as Akio was hooked up to machines

A look of nothing but pure rage was found on Kane's face as he looked down on the unconscious Akio "That bastard!" He shouted "I told him we all should've gone together. Ganged up on that little shit and captured him! Now look at what happened to Akio!"

Kentaro placed his hand on Kane's shoulder "Kane. Calm down. Think rationally."

Kane brushed Kentaro's hand off "His skull was nearly crushed! CRUSHED! Why the hell should I calm down when the little shit that did this is out and about! Enjoying his life with his brother while ours is unconscious for who knows how long! How are you not seething!?"

Kentaro clinched his teeth "I AM SEETHING!" The two took a moment to gather themselves "It isn't over. This has just begun."

Kane looked at his brother in confusion "What do you mean?"

Kentaro pulled his phone out and showed it to him "We betray that Monk during the raid on the school. Luckily the Sukuna vessel isn't well-liked in the sorcerer community and it's leaking onto his brother."

Kane looked at the message before chuckling "So the higher-ups want them both dead now? And it just so happened they asked us to do this job. Accept it. We're killing that brat no matter what."

The hot springs boiled water bubbles calmly as steam floats through the area

"Nooo." The transfigured Human said, transformed into the pipe Jogo is smoking from with puffs of smoke releasing from his head occasionally

Geo stood behind the volcano curse, avoiding the water "Jogo sensei. How do I refine my Domain now?"

Jogo exhales a cloud of smoke "Well use it a bunch and eventually, you'll get it right. Most sorcerers don't have Domains themselves so you could practice on them. Humans would work as well."

Geo nods "I see."

The two remain silent, letting the calming aura of the hotspring eat away at their stress

"Oh, there you are!" Mahito said, causing the two to look as he stripped himself and flipped into the water drenching Jogo "Looks like most of your body is back."

"Yeah, this place is relaxing." He tossed the pipe away "Humans don't come anywhere near it."

Geto takes his seat beside Geo with Mahito's clothes in hand "Lacking a body really is a problem. It makes self-preservation so inefficient." Mahito said, swimming around

"Mahito, you're awfully worn down yourself," Jogo noted

Mahito's brows furrowed "You could tell? Sukuna and his vessel along with the brother are my natural enemies. That Itadori (Y/n) kid was a vessel for someone else." Mahito slowly looked toward the monk "The person referred to themselves as 'Two' and said they knew you personally."

Geto scratched his chin in thought "That so? Perhaps it was someone from my past. Can't say for sure till I meet them myself."

Geo glared at the 'human' "Aren't you worried they'll reveal your identity?"

With a sigh Geto cracked his neck "We don't have anything to worry about. I'm sure this 'Two' told Mahito because he's on our side."

"BLEH!" Mahito called out, bored "Anyways, shouldn't I have used that Junpei boy as a hostage and forced him to make a pact instead?"
