*** 8/31/24: I have rewritten the third section***

All four of us were now running from the attacks thrown by the curse spirit. Roots emerged from the ground beneath reaching out to capture us. "Stop!" The attack froze in it's track, obeying the order of the cursed speech user. Kamo used his technique to land a hit on the spirit giving us time to create distance.
The violet eyed boy reached out into his pocket to grab a pack of cough pills. While on the run we hurridely tried to gather information to formulate a plan.
But before either of us could react, an attack unleashed by the spirit separated the four of us as we landed on the building's roof scattered. Everyone was counting on Inumaki to immobolise the tree head so we could land our attacks but...
My eyes widened as I heard blood dripping out of the said boy's mouth. He lost balance and fell onto his knees.
The tree head charged forward with another attack, taking down the Kamo head who was caught by Fushiguro. There was still a free clone of me. By dismissing him I'll be able to recover that energy. I speculated the target and examined my surroundings. I see...
"Mustard." "Wait Inumaki don't-
"BLAST OFF!"
Naturally the spirit complied to the order and was thrown off of it's bounds. I ran up to wounded boy just in time to catch him in my arms. Kamo will be fine. I knew that. But... this is just destroying yourself. "Idiot."
I looked behind my back to see the new party member. "Took you long enough,Maki."

Maki, along with Fusiguro decided to restart the battle themselves and left me, Inumaki and the Kamo head alone till help arrived. My classmate still rested in my arms, softly snoring without a care in the world as I stared at him. I can kill that spirit. I was just too afraid to use that technique since I have never done so before.
I sensed the presense of someone and gazed at their direction. It's that witch girl from Kyoto. "Make sure you get them help." I told her as I stood up, recollecting my composure. "That's what I'm good for. Being an skyline ambulance." She responded jokingly as she walked up to the wounded students.
Went she was about to go past me, I placed a hand on her shoulder. "Thank you." My lips curled up revealing a soft but tired smile. I saw a faint blush appear on the blonde girl's face before she puffed and left to do her duties.

I pulled out my scimitar, as the sharp blade pointed towards the obstacle that stood before me. A weakly built man with blonde hair tied sideways. He had violet facial marks starting off from underneath his eyes which watched me with bloodlust.
"Please move away." I spoke keeping my composure. "I have no interest in dealing with you right now."
The blonde madman hysterically laughed at my request. Then soon after with no warning, he charged forwards with a dagger. "I'm in a hurry." I bluntly stated; slicing off both his limbs before fledding further into the green foilage of a forest. From the corner of my eye I saw blood splattering out from his used to be arms before I had left the crime scene.
This was a well thought up ambush. But I hardly doubt they did this for fun or to just get ahold of Sukuna's vessel. What would they accomplish... My pupils dilated as the pieces built themselves up together. I changed my course away from the forest. I needed to get out from within the enemy's veil.
┗━•❃°•°❀°•°❃•━┛
As I made contact beyond the barrier I heard a loud explosion of some sort which rang through my ears. I stood there trying to grasp any breath left in me as I stared into the forest where the sound originated from. Determination sharpened on my facial features as I turned away from the veil and resumed my rally.
Finally after what seemed like an eternity I reached the safe house of Jujutsu tech. I've been here long enough to notice any change of presence in cursed energy.
I stepped foot inside.
A shiver went up my spine. The hairs on the back of my neck stood still.
Sukuna's finger had already fallen into the enemy's hands.
