Q: what is Satoru Gojo to you?

"..no one's gonna watch this right?" you mumbled, rubbing the back of your neck meekly. a light blush dusts the skin of your cheeks.

"yes, so please feel free to be honest."

"well..he's my fiancée." you begin. "he's my best friend and my partner in life. he has a place in my heart that no one else could ever have."

you recall your first meeting with him. it was the day after you ran away, you think. and it was a chilly morning with a beautiful sunrise along the skyline.

"i first met him on the balcony of a shitty motel. it was brief, but strangely enough, i still remember every moment of it. and to be honest, hes the only person who makes me feel a certain way...

i hope he doesnt leave anytime soon."

you were lucky enough to be able to book an emergency flight back, but despite everything going smoothly so far, you couldn't help but feel anxious

you were lucky enough to be able to book an emergency flight back, but despite everything going smoothly so far, you couldn't help but feel anxious.

you dont know what it was, but the closer you got to tokyo, the more your heart began to thumb against your chest. after the call had ended, mechamaru just dropped contact all together. what does he mean, 'theyre planning to seal gojo satoru.' ?

the moment you land in tokyo, you find yourself not caring about your luggages and instead sprinting out the airport.

shibuya right..?

embedding cursed spirit into your legs, you begin to run faster, anxiety growing more and more. what if mechamaru wasnt lying? what if you were too late? what if he'll never be unsealed again? what if—

you find yourself face to face with a curtain.

you look back, not even realizing you had entered two other layers of curtains.

"what is this..?" you dont realize there is now an earpiece of mechamaru in your right ear.

"gojo satoru is in B5. the bad news is that they have sealed gojo, but the cannot take him out of there." 

you flinch at the sudden voice before nodding and passing through the curtains until one doesnt allow you to pass. "this must not allow sorcerer to enter." you place a hand on the barrier, releasing an immense pressure in an attempt to break it.

the cement beneath your feet break, and the curses who were within the 5 meter radius crumble and evaporate away like ash.

but the curtain does not falter, it remains sturdy.

"please wait a short moment, megumi and itadori are on it."

————————

"( y/n ) ( l/n ) is on her way to gojo satoru." mechamaru informs itadori, megumi, nanami, and ino ,who had all gathered together to share the gathered information about the situation.

"she might just change the equation, however, we should still stick to the plan incase she's not able to handle whatever is inside suguru geto."

"who is ( y/n ) ( l/n )?" both nanami and ino ask, not having heard of the woman yet. she had only recently come out in public very recently after all.

"she's gojo-sensei's fiancé." megumi explains.

"i didnt know that guy had a fiancé.. it makes sense i guess." ino shrugs.

"we're trailing out of topic here." mechamaru sighs, "( y/n ) ( l/n ) is almost at the destination, so we must get moving as well."

everyone nods, the mood turning serious once again.  nanami devices a plan and goes solo, leaving ino to take care of the two students. as nanami leaves, he gives them a brief  explanation about the seriousness of the situation.

if gojo satoru is sealed, all of the people and curses he kept in check will crawl from the shadows and wreck havoc in the mortal world once again.

"hurry, ( y/n ) ( l/n ) is waiting for the curtain to go down."

——

"are you..?"

you turn around in surprise, quickly positioning yourself in a protective stance as a humanoid cursed spirit stands before you, wearing a hitatare from the heian era.

"you have her eyes."

the curse speaks, walking closer to you.

you're not even sure you can call it a curse. is it a ghost? a ghoul? a vampire? whatever it was, it didn't have enough malice to be a curse.

"who are you?" you sneer, preparing for combat. you had no time for this. you had to get to satoru as soon as possible.

it pauses, before shooting another question at you, "what is your surname, child?" 

"..( l/n )"

it's pale blueish skin unnerves you, the way it's eyes stares you blankly gives you goosebumps and the scent that it emits makes you gag. it almost seems like it's a walking and talking corpse. is it a zombie?

"you are my descendant.." it awes, walking closer and closer to you. as it steps, it slowly begins to cry, spewing constant apologies. when it is face to face with you, it speaks. with words you wish you knew the meaning behind.

"i have doomed you."

you are about to ask why, but the curtain behind you shatters. without a second thought, you bolt to the direction of basement five.

but you cant help but look back at your crying 'ancestor' with hands covering it's face.

you pay it no mind, only focusing on an actual plan to save satoru gojo. how could you possibly save him? what could have possibly sealed someone with the six eyes? you scan through the library of knowledge in your brain, soon realizing the only thing strong enough to bound gojo satoru was prison realm.

an idea begins to form, however, it was a 50-50 possibility.

i've got no choice, i have to try it.

the moment you arrive in B5, your offense is at it's max, exorcising every transfigured human and curse that tries to stop you. blood splatters on your skin and clothes as you continue to run through the mass of corpses, wind blowing back your hair at the speed you run.

you continue until you're face to face with who you assume is suguru geto.

you both have an intense stare-down. you spot the prison realm, stuck and heavy on the concrete floor. it's eyes have turned blue like gojo's and you almost swear you can hear a distant wailing from within it.

suddenly, you dont know what to do. should you continue with your plan, should you fight suguru geto who's frozen in place as he stares at you?

suddenly, the same sentence from a few nights ago's dream repeats in your head.

" ( y/n ), dont make the same mistake twice, move."

and you do, whistling past suguru geto, and touching the prison realm that's on the floor, creating a binding vow with the object as soon as you make contact with it.

"free satoru gojo and take my soul in his place."
