"Um, what are we doing?" I asked as I approached them at the veil. 

"Itadori is punching the veil," Megumi explained to me as I stood beside them. 

Yuji was raising his fist, "It's not budging at all."

"W-well that's some decent force," Ino said. 

"It's a rather sturdy veil," I said, "We have to search for a weak point and put a hole in it. Although, I'm able to enter it and exit it with no problem."

"Let's split up," I suggested.

Megumi and Yuji went together while Ino and I split up. 

I walked through the dark alleyways only to find some low-level curses. I quickly slashed them apart before moving on. I ran silently and stiffened as I felt the presence of a higher-level curse ahead. However, the moment I set foot on the ground again, the presence was gone. It was hiding its cursed energy when it heard me.

"Third Form: Clear Storm Wind Tree," I held my katana tightly as I moved forward. Strange.

The curse must have been hiding its presence as one of the objects nearby. 

"Eighth Form: Primary Gale Slash."

There. A trash bag exploded and something clattered to the ground. I picked it up and found a nail wrapped in paper. Must be something keeping the veil up. I put it on the ground and slashed it into pieces with my katana. 

I turned back and started making my way back. I heard a noise and looked towards the veil, it was being lifted. 

"Huh?"

"Eeeeeek," I heard a screeching noise in the sky. It was Megumi's shikigami. I looked at it curiously as it was flying up towards a building. 

I took a turn and jumped over a fence to see Megumi, Yuji, and an injured Ino lying on Megumi's shikigami. 

"What happened, is he okay?" I asked.

"I'll take Ino-san with me and head out of the veil for a bit," Megumi said. 

"Take care of Ino-san," Yuji said, "I'll go on ahead to the station."

"I'm coming with you, I know the way," I said, Yuji nodded in response. "Be careful, Megumi."

"Alright, but..."

"If we die, you'll kill us, right?" Yuji grinned.

Megumi scoffed.

"Don't worry, I have mechamaru with me, and L/n is here too."

I smiled. Megumi stood up and said, "See you later."

...

"There's absolutely no one here, I thought there was a big crowd?" Yuji asked. 

"There was," I responded. 

Yuji sprinted forward fast, jumping down the escalator. 

"Wait, don't go too fast!" I warned, but he was already down. 

A red light shot from below, splitting a sign on top in half. What the hell... I quickly landed beside Yuji to see a curse standing in front of us. A curse that looked like a human. 

"Piercing blood," the curse clasped his hands together and shot blood out, aiming for Yuji. I unsheathed my katana and prepared to attack the curse. 

"L/n! I can handle this," Yuji said. I nodded and ran towards Yuji. Just as I passed him I told him to go into the bathroom where there was water. 

I scanned the station, but there didn't seem to be anyone else so I decided to go up again. Maybe I should go check on Megumi.

Suddenly, the electricity began zapping and all the lights flickered until it went all dark. There was an explosion from the distance. I looked above to see buildings burning. Sukuna? I need to find the others. 

A huge meteor began appearing in the sky. "Megumi! Where are you!" I screamed. I heard fighting going on near the next corner. I ran towards it, hoping to find someone. 

I turned the corner to see Sukuna fighting the mahoraga. I looked around and spotted Megumi lying against the wall, bleeding. Beside him was a curse user. I stood at the corner, observing the fight. The moment Sukuna was out of my line of sight I took Megumi and ran as far as I could. 

Shoko should be nearby somewhere.
