Hollow Purple ~ Megumi Fushiguro x Oc

Incarnation

      Once evening hit, Megumi and Aki made their way to the local hospital, seeing as Aki found out Yuji had a sick grandpa there and they could get more information if they spoke to the front desk, or better yet, Yuji's grandpa himself.

   They walked up the dark hallway of the hospital, spotting Yuji talking to the front desk lady.

"Yuji Itadori?" Megumi called out, Aki gave him a look as he stood so menacingly in the dark. Yuji and even the front desk lady gave him the same look. "I'm Fushiguro from Jujutsu High, and this is Unagi. We'd like to have a word with you. Now." Megumi demanded.

"Such an asshole.... He really means, we'd like to talk to you, please." Aki said sweetly.

   Yuji gave a small smile, following the two of them to an empty room.

"Uh...I'm in...mourning, right now.." Yuji said awkwardly.

"I understand, but, this can't wait." Megumi said bluntly.

"And, we're sorry for your loss, Itadori." Aki said with a warm smile.

"The cursed object you possess is very dangerous." Megumi said getting right to the chase. "I need you to hand it over."

"Cursed object?" Yuji asked confused, causing Megumi to pull up a photo of Sukuna's wrapped finger.

"This." He spoke.

"Oh, yeah, that! Yeah, I found that." Yuji said understanding now. "I didn't think much of it. But my friends were totally into it. What's dangerous about it?" Yuji asked suspiciously.

"Every year there are more than ten thousand unexplained deaths and missing persons in Japan. And most of those are the result of curses." Megumi told him.

"From curses?" Yuji asked not grasping it whatsoever as he sat funny on the back of a bench.

"I don't care whether you believe in them or not. The fact is, they exist. Just listen." Megumi was obviously not having it with Yuji's lack of knowledge. "Large pools of negative energy form easily in schools, hospitals, and so on. Hardship, regret, shame, these emotions of mankind become the source of curses. That's why most schools secretly keep a cursed object to serve as a protective talisman. Just like the one you and your friends found." Megumi explained to him.

"If it protects us, then shouldn't we be grateful for it?" Yuji asked raising his hand.

"Just let me finish!" Megumi said frustration so very clear in his tone. "A cursed object needs to be incredibly evil to keep lesser evil cursed away. But its protection isn't permanent. The problem is that their seals weaken over time, and then they serve as a lure to attract and strengthen other curses. The object you found is a dangerous one. Classified as special grade. Now hand it over before people start dying." Megumi demanded.

"Agh! I already told you that I don't have it anymore." Yuji groaned. "But here's the box." Yuji said tossing it over to him.

"It's empty. We've just been following a trace left by the object." Megumi said slightly panicking.

"Itadori!" Aki called, holding Megumi back as Yuji started walking away.

"What's up?" Yuji asked, and she could tell he didn't want to talk to them anymore.

"We need to find that object. Can you please point us in the direction of where it is, and we'll leave you alone. Your friends could die, Yuji Itadori." Aki pleaded.

"Well, you see my friends were planning to...uh.." Yuji started.

"To do what?!" Megumi was sweating in panic.
