Pyre of Thousandfold Hearts | JJK

"I can't go on any longer.. Go on without me, Satoru." A hand tremble as an earring within it reaches out to the white haired sorcerer. "I can't even breathe right-" a heavy breath again and again, seemingly heavier by the second passing them; without mercy, without pity nor sympathy.

"Take care of her for me.. Make sure she's safe, for me."

"You can't be serious," Gojo Satoru never felt denial before in his life, not this serious. He never felt so disgusted by the sight, his eyes never lie. With that fact, he knows what his eyes are calculating is correct: the person before him is dying, verge of death and only giving his last wish. Tears would well up if he was normal, like others, but all he could see-eyes open or not, he could feel it; the cursed energy of that person is slowly fading.

"Take care of her... please, Satoru," that plead once again. From then on, that wish became Satoru's first regret and first responsibility. Yet he didn't care, his jaw opened on its own, "name?" the dying person on the floor smiled gently. What a bastard, leaving so early, what was he thinking? "Hinatsumi Shizuka, my sister."

At last, the last bit of cursed energy of that dying man ceased, with his ultimate last breath being relief and words being: "take care of her, Satoru." With a smile on his face, blood in his mouth, claws in his heart and pipes in his spleen, his ears picked up the last thing he never even got to thank:

"Understood."

HINATSUMI SHIZUKA, foul-mouthed, snarky and sarcastic (maybe even annoying), had finally grown up to be an excellent student of the sorcery world. Being a second grade sorcerer despite only being two months older than her "ward-mate", FUSHIGURO MEGUMI. Entering the world filled with death, agony and regret. Yet knowing that is the right choice, she wished to be on par with her guardian.

"M'gumi, you look so friendly with that frown, totally not the reason you're single!"

"Shut up."
