y/n unpacked, getting into a pair of sweatpants, a turtleneck and her favourite sneakers before walking out to revisit the training grounds. like always, her wolf-dog followed her.

some sort of training did seem to be in full swing when she reached.

maki was here, along with panda, who y/n knew since the principal practically raised him. three other people were also there.

"y/n senpai!!", panda waved, beginning to walk towards her, "welcome back- who's the dog?"

"yo panda", she smiled, "meet kuro"

panda waved to the dog, who just growled and brushed against y/n's leg.

"not that friendly huh", panda chuckled. everyone else came forward curiously.

"who are you?", a girl with light brown hair asked curiously

"oh, this is my old school, i'm here on business", she explained, "i'm y/n"

"she's a special grade", maki told everyone else, who looked at her in surprise and then back at y/n.

"like gojo-sensei?", the brown haired girl asked

"gojo SENSEI?"

"yeah, like sa- i mean, gojo", y/n agreed indifferently.

"is that a summoning dog?", a boy with spiky hair asked

"wait isn't this the fushiguro kid?", she pondered

"no he's a modified cursed corpse", she said

"really?", he looked at kuro in awe

"anyway i'll let you guys get back to training.", she began to walk away when they stopped her

"what is it?", she asked as they looked at her expectantly

"you're a special grade right? what kind of technique do you use?", fushiguro asked

she thought about it for a few seconds before walking a little way off from the group.

"okay let's see which one of you can guess it correctly", she smirked, and they nodded, clearing some space for her. "someone be my opponent. you, brown haired girl"

"kugasaki nobara", she introduced, walking forward and standing before her. she was nervous, which y/n noticed but let slide because she was determined to hide it.

"okay kugasaki, come on.", she smiled before turning to her dog, "go sit in that corner kuro"

the dog obediently sat near a tree, saying nothing. fushiguro discreetly went and sat next to kuro, who surprisingly didn't bark or react at all when he patted his head.

meanwhile nobara ran toward her, ready to attack. y/n stood still, a confident smile plastered across her face.

"doesn't that expression remind you of-", maki thought out loud

"gojo sensei", itadori completed, "just who is she?"

nobara's mind was clouded with doubt as she ran to land a blow.

"she's wide open for me to hit. there has to be a catch doesn't there? should i stop? no, this will probably give me an idea of what her ability is"

she jumped straight towards her, landing a kick right toward her head. but there was no impact.

the students witnessing this stood there with their mouths open.

y/n was in fact behind nobara. and using such incredible speed that the rest of them barely saw it. the younger girl gulped as she chuckled.

"y/n!", a voice called from behind them, "stop bullying the children"

"well they were the ones that wanted to see my cursed technique", she whined, hiding a smile at the familiar voice. slowly, she put nobara down, leaving everyone dumbfounded.

she turned around hurriedly to face her senior from school.

"so it's true. you're really back huh", she looked genuinely surprised

"ieri senpaiiiii", y/n ran towards her to tackle her in a hug, "i missed youuuuu"

"yes you made that clear from the zero missed calls on my phone", she replied flatly, hugging her back anyway.

the students looked at them weirdly.

"y/n was two years my junior in high school", ieri explained, patting y/n's head. she giggled.

"damn", maki remarked under her breath and the two walked away from the students, getting into their own conversation.

"y/n?"

"hmm?"

"does satoru know you're here?"

y/n stiffened up at the mention of his name, looking away, "he doesn't."

"but-"

"please don't tell him", she looked at her and then at the floor, "i don't wanna see him just yet"

ieri sighed, "okay i won't. so why are you here anyway?"

"oh right, where is kento senpai?", she asked, "he faced that cursed spirit didn't he?"

"nanami...", she thought out loud, "i think he'll be here in a few hours. you wanna catch up until then?"

y/n nodded, and they walked away to ieri's lab.

"so what have you been upto?", y/n asked, looking around the place

"well just working", she shrugged, "very boring compared to your life i presume. you tell me, where have you been for so long?"

"well i roamed around japan, even went abroad for a year. actually learned a whole lot more about cursed energy", she shrugged, "killed many spirits, made one of the spirits my pet, got my special grade certification"

"not to mention, left without any explanation", ieri said

"i had plenty of reasons. please don't start-", y/n rolled her eyes

"i know you don't want to hear it", she said, "but you should see him y/n"

"he was the one who ended it", she said quietly, "it doesn't even make sense- never mind. it doesn't matter now."

"y/n it's been years"

"do you think i don't know that?", she asked. this shut ieri up and the conversation shifted to another topic. "whatever, i'll meet him tomorrow or something."

a few hours later a man in a suit with glasses and pale blonde hair pushed back walked into the room.

"am i interrupting?", he asked indifferently

"KENTO SENPAI", y/n ran to give him a friendly hug that he couldn't help but return

"the prodigal sorcerer returns huh", he remarked, patting her back

"you bet", she winked
