Chapter 3

Megumi grabs onto you, holding you to prevent you from hitting the ground. His back hits the ground instead causing him to groan in pain. Everything above falls down towards you. Itadori grabs the three of you and runs through a small gap in the distance. Once he makes it through the hole gets covered by rubble. He lets Megumi and you down. Nobara jumps off Itadori's back and dusts herself off.

"Back in the basement..." You sigh.

"Isn't the other curse down here?" Nobara asks.

"Yeah..." Megumi replies.

"Wait the building collapsed... weren't there other people in the building?" You ask. Megumi shakes his head and sighs.

"You were the only one in the building... the others were evacuated before we got here." He replies.

"I still don't get it- Why does the curse want you?" Itadori asks.

"Maybe some sick pervert manifested the curse..." Nobara huffs. 

"When will this idiot get here..." Megumi sighs pulling out his phone. His phone rings as he holds it out.

"Yello-"

"Where the hell are you?" Megumi rasps.

"Relax... I'm almost there... Is the girl still with you?" Gojo asks.

"Yeah, she's here..."

"Did you leave the building?"

"No." Megumi huffs. Silence fills the air.

"What do you mean no."

"The building collapsed and now we are stuck under it." Megumi sighed.

"Haha... damn- Well, sit tight sweetheart- I will save you~" Megumi's eyes relaxed when Gojo said that.

"Don't call me that-"

"Make sure the girl doesn't die... and tell Itadori to keep Sukuna inside..." 

"Didn't you say you were almost here?" Nobara says into the phone.

"Yes.... oou is this green tea flavored?" Nobara's eyes and face relaxes giving her a dumbfounded expression. "Look- don't die... I'm almost there." The phone hangs up.

"For some reason I feel like he's not almost here..." Itadori says pointing at the phone.

"OH REALLY? WHAT MADE YOU REALIZE THAT?" Nobara yells in an irritated tone towards Itadori.

"We need to find a way out of here..." Megumi says standing up and holding his side.

"Megumi... are you hurt?" Itadori asks. 

"No I'm fine..." He groans.

"You're bleeding..." You say pointing towards Megumi's hand that's holding his side. Its covered in blood and the blood starts leaking out his hands.

"You are hurt." Nobara sighs walking over to Megumi.

"I'm fine... just help me find a way out." Megumi motions.

Itadori nods and walks over towards the rubble covering the place you all entered through. You walk over towards Megumi, reaching out to him.

"I'm fine..." He sighs backing away and leaning against the wall.

"Can I just wrap it...? You're bleeding out a lot." You softly say reaching towards him again.

"Wrap it with what?" he asks. You pause and look down towards your shirt. You grab a small hole in your shirt and ripped the bottom part of your shirt off. Megumi sighs and you move his hand away. You put pressure on the spot Megumi is bleeding from. His eyes widen when you touch his wound. You slowly grab the ripped cloth, stepping on it trying to tear it in half so that it will be easier to wrap around Megumi. Megumi furrows his eyebrows and closes his eyes. Once you ripped the cloth you moved your other hand away from Megumi's wound to wrap the cloth around it but then paused when you noticed the wound was gone.

"Where did it go?" You softly say. Nobara looks towards you and Megumi opens his eyes and lifts his shirt a bit to get a better look at the wound. "It's gone... the wound..."

"You healed it..." Megumi says letting down his shirt.

"Healed it?" Nobara looks at the two of you confused. Megumi looks at you confused.

"Yeah..." He answers looking at his hands. "When she touched the wound, I felt a bunch of energy surging into it. Then I felt it close up... I also feel a lot stronger for some reason..."

"Huh..." Nobara tilts her head and furrows her eyebrows.

"..." You slowly look at your hands that are covered in blood. "I did that?" You question.

"Do you think that's why the curse wants her?" Itadori asks. Everyone looks at Itadori.

"Wait... you don't think she's the reason why the curse got a few grades stronger..." Nobara says looking back at Megumi with her eyes wide.

"I believe so..." Megumi replies.

"So, they want you because you make them stronger..." Itadori says.

"Shit... so that means wherever she goes curses will follow her. That's got to suck..." Nobara sighs. Everyone goes quiet and their eyes widen. You look at them confused as to why, but you feel the walls around you shake.

"RUN!" Megumi yells. He grabs you and jumps. The walls behind you all break and fall. The curse you saw in the file room rushes over towards you. Megumi rolls on the ground, holding your head. Then he gently let's go of you and summons his dogs again. The dogs jump up and bite at the stretched-out parts of the curse that was reaching out for the two of you. Megumi grabs you and runs, carrying you in bridal style. He runs to the right and another curse bursts through the wall causing Megumi to jump back and slide. Another curse breaks through the wall behind you. Megumi breathes heavily as he tries to figure out a way to get out.

"RAAAHHH" Itadori yells as he punches the curse causing it to implode. Nobara hits the other curse with her hammer making the curse explode. 

"Shit this is making me sweat..." Nobara sighs.

"My hands are getting all beaten up too..." Itadori says. The ceiling above you breaks and a curse drops down grabbing you. Itadori punches the curse and grabs you. More of them break through the walls causing the hall between the two of you and Nobara and Megumi to cave in. 

"There's so much going on... Why is this all happening..." You sigh out of exhaustion. Itadori turns and looks at you.

"Are you okay?" He asks. You slowly nod but truthfully you weren't okay... for some reason you felt really drained. Itadori furrows his eyebrows and squints his eyes, looking away. Markings start to appear on his body. He clenches his fists and looks back at you. "Y/n... Run..." He sluggishly says. You nod and start running away. "Shit why now... Fuck off..." he pants as he loses control of his body.

"Didn't you notice it Brat... Just by being around that bitch you're feeding me more energy..." Sukuna scoffs. You continue down the hall but then you stop when you see another curse.

"Why are there so many..." You rasp. The curse rushes over towards you. You scream and turn around and smacking into someone. The curse behind you implodes. You back away to see who you ran into.

"Itadori..." You sluggishly say. 

"Wrong." Sukuna says grabbing you.

"LET GO OF HER!" Megumi yells holding his hands together. Sukuna looks back at Megumi and smiles. He grabs you by the bottom of your jaw, squeezing it hard. You squeeze your eyes close from the pain. 

"Then come and get her..." He gibes. Everything around you gets blurry and you feel yourself losing consciousness.

Present time...

"That's all you remember?" Gojo asks. You slowly nod.

"Enhancement..." The woman slowly says. "So, Sukuna took over because of her cursed energy..." She speaks.

"Looks like it..." Gojo replies. "You've got a unique ability there..." He sooths as he leans closer towards you. You furrow your eyebrows and look away.

"Wait so Sukuna said your cursed energy gets stronger when aroused?" The woman asks as she places a stethoscope on your back from under your shirt.

"That's his name?" You ask. The woman nods. You slowly nod. "Yeah he said that..." You say.

"What does that mean?" Gojo asks. The woman pulls the stethoscope from out your shirt and looks at Gojo. 

"I don't know... but from what it looks like is she has the ability to use reversed curse energy and she's able to strengthen other's cursed energy. Which means it's dangerous for her to be around curses and Itadori." The woman implies. Gojo slowly nods. "I'm pretty sure you can figure out what else she can do... but that's all I can tell you. She's not dead or hurt so there's not much I can do about this situation." She continues.

"I see... welp- We will figure out what you can do exactly but that can wait till later... come on." Gojo motions. You follow Gojo down a hall. You both step into an elevator. Gojo presses the twelfth-floor button. You stand quietly to the side feeling kind of disoriented. "You tired?" He asks.

"Kinda..." You softly reply.

"Well after we meet with the boss of Tokyo Jujutsu Headquarters you can go to your new room and can rest there."

"New room? Can't I just go home?"

"Haha... No- You can't go home-" He says.

"Why?" You ask.

"You attract curses and manifest the energy in them... you will only get yourself killed if you went back home." he answers.

"What? I've been living alone for six months... I will be fine." You sigh.

"Righhhtt... oh yeah didn't the place you work in collapse? So that means you're out of a job... Which means you have no money... whiiiich means no home... Sucks doesn't it? But- OH WOW I have an Idea... how about you live here instead?" He smiles at you and you narrow your eyes at him. "Doesn't that sound great?" He sooths. You relax your eyes and the elevator door opens. He walks down the hall towards a door. When he opens the door the room behind it is huge. 

"Late again... Satoru" The man says. "Thirty minutes late... I told you to fix your habit of being late..." You furrow your eyebrows towards a man who's crafting a cute stuffed doll. There were a bunch of them all over the room.

"Thirty minutes isn't even that long... besides you're just sitting there making dolls anyway..." Gojo softly says. He looks towards you and smiles. "This is Boss Yaga the head of Tokyo Jujustu Headquarters... " Gojo sooths. 

"Nice to meet you." You softly say bowing a bit.

"I thought they said the girl died." Boss Yaga says.

"Technically she did... but she came back to life." Gojo replies.

"Came back to life?" Boss Yaga questions.

"Apparently she can heal herself and others..." Gojo answers.

"I heard she also attracts curses..." 

"Yeah, but what Megumi also discovered was that she can also strengthen curses around her."

"I see..."

"Shoko couldn't fully interpret what her cursed energy is or her ability, but she believes y/n has the ability to use a reverse cursed technique and an enhancing cursed energy technique." 

"Reverse cursed technique like Shoko..." Boss Yaga says.

"Yeah."

"Am I able to go home?" You ask. Boss Yaga looks at you and furrows his eyebrows.

"You want to go home?" he asks. You nod. "After everything you heard... you still want to go home just to put those around you in danger?" He continues. You stare at him unable to respond to him.

"..." You look down at the ground.

"It will be safer if you stay here." He adds. 

"Told ya." Gojo quietly bubbles.

Gojo takes you to the room you will be staying in. The room is pretty big and nice. 

"Nice ain't it... you can decorate the room however you want..." Gojo bubbles.

"Yeah-" You slowly say.

"Tomorrow-" You look at Gojo. "We will be working more on your... ability."

"Okay." You quietly say.

"So, get some rest... You'll need as much energy as you can get... Don't want you passing out on me." He coos. You slowly nod. "I will be back to get you in the morning." He says walking out the room. "Byeeee" After the door closes you walk over towards the bed flopping down on it.

"Go to Tokyo they said... It will be fun they said..." You groan into your pillow. You slowly drift into sleep.

"Bitch..."

"Hello?" You look around you. It's dark. 

"Bitch..." 

"Who's there?" You ask trying to walk in the darkness.

"If I fuck you... I will be stronger... right?" 

"Huh?" You turn around to see dark red eyes boring into your eyes.

"Your cursed energy feels good... I want more of it..."

"What are you saying?" You ask. Sukuna appears from the darkness which makes your eyes widen. He grabs you by the bottom of your jaw, smiling at you.

"I will fuck the energy out of you-" 

"What?" His grip around your jaw tightens. He grabs your shoulder with his other hand and leans in towards your neck, biting into it. "OW!" 

You jump up from your bed with your eyes widen and breathing quickly.

"Jeez... you had a nightmare or something?" Your eyes shift towards the voice. Gojo is sitting in a chair beside your bed.

"Why the hell are you sitting beside my bed so creepily... Were you watching me sleep?" You rasp.

"You weren't waking up, so I decided to wait a bit before I tried waking you again..." He answers. You furrow your eyebrows and rub your neck. "Did you know you snore when you sleep..." He comments. You dart your eyes at him. 

"Shut up..." You sigh. Gojo smiles at you and stands up.

"Well... since you're awake... we can start on figuring out how your cursed technique works and then we can work on channeling it." He says walking towards the door. "Oh... and take a shower before we start... you are drenched in sweat."
