Sakura Mochi (JJK x Demon Slayer)

chapter 19

The crew were freaking out as they followed Kana. There were only a few Shinobi from the Uzui clan who went with her

She was going in the back of the Kanroji clan compound, a deserted dark forest, thickly covered with many huge and old trees. It was damp and kinda creepy to walk there

Kana even left Saki on the main house with the butterfly girls. Not much could be said other than just standing there, in all those dark trees and getting this feeling of being watched

It was just such a weird experience

But some time later while walking, they noticed how they could feel this unbarring amount of cursed energy leaking from the woods

And another thing that was ticking them off was Kana wasn't being her usual bubbly self. She was quiet, dead quiet. She had a smile on her face that didn't portray any emotions she could be feeling

It was all getting on their nerves

As they kept walking and coming closer to their destination, they could feel the cursed energy spike up and getting more and more stronger

Gojo and Yuta themselves pretty much had an infinite amount of cursed energy and even they never felt so much cursed energy at once. It was terrifying how strong it was

Soon they left the woods and stood in front of a house that looked haunted. Like the typical houses you find a very good grade one or special grade curse

It was nothing new to them, but leaking cursed energy was just setting off alarms they didn't even know existed

The men, Gojo, Geto, Nanami, Haibara, Toji, Yuta and Megumi... They could feel cold sweat dripping drown their neck, their breathing coming short with anticipation

"This is it... This is were they are"

Kana said, her voice with no emotion

They gulped, trying to think what to do when Kana came forward and opened a door

Yuta tried to get in, only to feel like he couldn't. He, they physically couldn't move. It was like there was a barrier that had kept them like a statue

"Yuta-kun"

He looked up to see his sensei smiling at him with a calm and gentle smile

Her smiling face acted like a reassurance for him and Megumi. She gently stretched her hand for him to take

At that time, the young boy felt like he could trust this woman with everything. She'd never try to hurt him, harm him or even upset him. She was kinder than anyone he'd ever meet

With this warm feeling he grabbed her hand. He felt like a spell broke and he could move again. One by one, she grabbed everyone's hand and took them in

"How did you do that.... And why couldn't we move before"

Gojo asked, looking at his hand that could still feel the warmth of hers on it

"It's a safety barrier... Just Incase something bad happens. We'll be prepared and the civilian's lives wouldn't be indangered"

That sentence brought goosebumps on their body

They looked at her with shocked filled eyes

She didn't look at the men, but did look at the young boys with her. Her eyes softened, cupping both of their cheeks

"Now.. you two, my dear little ones... You're not here to fight. I want you two know that I'll rather fight till my last breath than putting you in any danger. I promise you, we all are safe and it's just a rule and formality from the higher ups to bring you here as witnesses "

She said with a assuring tone, gently caressing their cheeks

Their tense shoulders dropped and they nodded. Much more relaxed and they weren't that scared anymore

She smiled at them for the last time and opened the door of the house

Everyone closed their eyes and when they opened them, they could only get wider by each others. They physically froze in fear. They didn't know what they were expecting, but it sure wasn't this

There in the middle of the spacious room, there as a mortified Yuji Itadori, two unknown individuals with him, one woman and a man. But that wasn't the most terrifying thing

On the middle of the room, wrapped and tied in some kind of cursed energy infused chain ⛓️ there was the king of crurses, Ryomen Sukuna... In his full form

Four arms, two mouths and a face they couldn't describe. He had this grin when his eyes landed on Gojo and Kana

"SO THIS IS WHAT YOU WERE DOING, WOMAN? YOU THINK THESE BRATS CAN SAVE YOU FROM ME? HUH? BUT HOW WRONG YOU ARE, LITTLE GIRL, YOU'LL GET TO KNOW... HOW LONG DO YOU THINK YOU CAN KEEP ME HERE? WHEN I GET FREE, I'LL KILL YOU FIRST AND THAT GOJO BRAT NEXT"

the king of crurses yelled, a crazed smile on his face

Kana just stared at him, not saying anything else as quietly went and sat down with Yuji, holding the poor sunshine's hand

To her, she had to make sure her baby was okay

"Baby love"

Yuji's warm brown eyes met with her

Baby love

It was something she recently started calling him. He noticed, he and Saki are the only ones who she calls this. It makes him feel more close to her, like she's more than just a relative. Although she had done everything to prove she wasn't just a seasonal aunt but this made him feel like like she had accepted him as her own son

She gave him one of her most beautiful smiles, giving his hand a squeeze, silently telling him it's gonna be okay

"Coming from you, it's a lot king. But you're looking great, like it's your place "

Gojo said in a taunting voice, his smile had the same craziness Sukuna had

Sukuna's eyes in lit up with pure bloodlust

"I've been waiting for you brat. Just let me get outa here. After I kill that whore I'll kill you first "

Gojo's eyes twitched, the same amount of cursed energy also leaking from him

"Don't you dare, king... Don't you dare call my woman whore... You're in no possion to talk"

Kana was getting irritated. For one, this was ridiculous the way Gojo was acting. And the words left his mouth, she didn't know what to make of them. She didn't know if he was just blabbering or the stress was getting to him but she had to stop him.

She could already see the questioning look on Yuta, Megumi and Yuji's face when their sensei, Gojo, called her "his woman" . She herself was quite taken aback from where that came from

Because as much as she remembered, he hated her. He hated how weak she was, how emotional she was and how weird she looked. So she really didn't get what he was saying now, it didn't really make much of a sense

"Control your words senpai. You don't know what you're talking about"

She firmly said

"But Sakura, this bastard was calling you a who-

"Shut up. We have children... And you're in no position to talk when you called me the same thing years ago"

She said before sighing when Yuta and Yuji looked at her horrified at the revolution. Megumi and Toji stared at Gojo in blunt disbelief. They couldn't fathom how he could call a person like Kanroji a whore

That seems to shut Gojo up. He visibly flinched, looking at her with helpless eyes. If only she knew how much he regreted that day

She knew her baby students were gonna have a chat with her when she was done with all this

She focused on the same matter
