CHAPTER FOURTEEN : TEAM TOKYO, GO!
"We'll be starting the event in one minute." Gojo's voice rang out from the speakers.
The Tokyo team had slowly made their way into their starting position in the forest, all of them anxiously waiting for the game to start. Kaori eyed a crow that was perched upon a high tree branch that stared down at them intensely.
Gojo continued his little speech, "But before we begin, let's hear a few words of well appreciated encouragement, from the always eloquent Utahime Iori."
"Huh?" Utahime exclaimed in panic, clearly caught off guard. "Uh, well, I, uhh, guess although during this event some degree of injury will be unavoidable, you should uhhh, helping each other out? Or something? If you can."
"Okay sorry times up." Gojo cut off Utahime's nervous ramble quickly.
"Ugh Gojo you jerk, I wasn't done." Utahime stated with annoyance lacing her tone. This made the Tokyo team all look to the speaker in disbelief. Were they seriously arguing when the event was about to begin?
Though they didn't give it another thought when Gojo finally announced, "Now let the Sister School Exchange Event begin!"
Immediately, the group took off running. Following Fushiguro's dog, the entered deeper into the forest. Maki was leading, Kaori and Fushiguro behind her with Itadori, Kugisaki, Inumaki and Panda behind them.
It didn't take them long to start discussing. "Where do you think the cursed spirit boss is?" Itadori asked the group.
"It was probably released at the midpoint between the two groups." Panda surmised. "But we can't expect it to stand still."
"At the pre-arranged time, we'll all split into the Megumi squad and the Panda squad. After that, it's on you. Got it, Yuji?" Maki called over her shoulder.
Itadori threw his thumbs up positively. "Got it!"
In that moment, Fushiguro's demon dog started barking aggressively. From the trees fell a spider looking curse, it's body a vibrant red and it's legs a pastey yellow. There was only one, evidently a curse placed by the school since usually smaller grades would stick together.
"It's low grade," Kaori called to the rest of the group before glancing to Maki in front of her, "you got it?"
"Duh." Maki replied.
As gracefully as a angel, Maki rolled her weapon in her hand, circling it around her body as she approached the curse. Just as she was about strike, Kaori caught a presence approaching them. At rapid speed. And it's cursed energy was increasing by the second.
And it seemed like Kaori wasn't the only one who had noticed it. The demon dog turned it's head in the direction of the cursed energy but didn't make any sound apart from a small whimper, which only meant one thing ...
