Itadori Yuji's entrance to the Kyoto Sister School Exchange was not the one he was expecting.
He had been stuffed in a box by Gojo and whizzed away to who knows where before the lid was removed and he was jumping out, striking a pose.
"Hey! OPP (ocean pacific peace)!" He exclaimed.
"It's your departed friend! Itadori Yuji-kun!" Gojo gestured to Itadori with an excited smile.
You turned your head to see Megumi and Nobara's reaction, only to snort at the sight of them not looking happy at all.
You slapped a hand over your mouth and turned away to hold in your laughter but, your trembling shoulders were a dead giveaway.
Nobara was the first one to move and Megumi followed after, watching as she kicked the box and brought Itadori out of his trance.
"Oi, you got something to say?" She said in a low tone.
Itadori saw she was close to crying but was holding it in and felt guilty.
"I'm sorry for keeping it quiet about me being alive."
You couldn't hold it in anymore and laughed, Itadori turning his head your way and feeling more embarrassed about the situation.
"It's not funny, [L/N]-senpai!"
You paused in your laughter as you felt Nobara and Megumi place their death stare on your back. You turned slowly, seeing how they squinted their eyes at you.
"You know each other?" Nobara asked.
"No..." You looked elsewhere as you lied but it was blatantly obvious.
You were now kneeling next to Itadori with your arms raised up as a punishment for already knowing Itadori was alive and you hadn't mentioned it at all. Itadori was holding a frame in front of his face and it made you snicker.
"Depending on how you look at it, this could be considered extreme bullying." The pink haired teen mentioned.
"Shut up and stay that way." Nobara retorted, refusing to look his way.
Panda stepped forward and tried to resolve the little bit of tension in the room.
"Now, now. You heard his explanation. Cut him some slack."
Itadori blinked and gazed back at Panda with a sense of awe.
"The panda talked!"
"Salmon, salmon." Inumaki said, siding with panda.
Itadori was intrigued by Inumaki and Megumi along with Panda used their time to explain his cursed speech technique.
While they were occupied with their explanation, you slowly stood up and snuck away from them, moving behind Maki as Nobara saw your attempt to escape your harmless punishment.
"Senpai!" She complained and you peeked over Maki's shoulder to stick your tongue out.
"Forget that for now. Lets focus on our battle formations. We have a new member so, are going to change them?" Maki questioned as she crossed her arms.
"What can you do?" Panda asked Itadori who flexed his arm while patting his muscle.
"Punches and kicks!"
"We already can do that..."
Itadori froze up and Megumi let out a sigh.
"I don't know what he's been doing since he's been dead but if Itadori was to fight against everyone in Kyoto or Tokyo in a non-cursed battle, he would win." Megumi told and you raised your hand as you gave your agreement.
"I've been Itadori's training partner for two weeks and I can say, he really is strong!"
With two statements put in for Itadori, the second years saw him in a better way compared to before.
---------------------------------------------------
Gojo was seated in the monitor room where he, along with the other sorcerers, could witness the competition between the Tokyo school and Kyoto school.
Like they predicted, most of the students went up against each other instead of taking care of the curses that had been released.
"Didn't you reject [L/N]?" Utahime asked Gojo as she watched the screen's with a small frown.
"I did but [F/N] managed to convince me to change my decision."
Utahime wanted to question why on earth he would accept you when it was known how your clan had declined in the strength they used to be so proud to posess.
Her stare turned flat as she witnessed you annoying one of the crows by sticking your face really close to it.
"Are you sure it was the right decision?" She commented, not impressed by your silliness.
Gojo remained quiet, watching as a curse was slowly creeping up behind you.
You had turned your head, fixing the shades you wore to see the curse before you casually walked over to it and slapped it across it's face.
Utahime's jaw went slack as she saw how the curse's head had practically evaporated before it's body followed after.
"I usually make the right decision's but, [F/N] proved me wrong." Gojo said with a proud smile.
---------------------------------------------------
You had been coming across a few curses, giving them a quick smack or punch to get rid of them but other than that, you hadn't seen another soul.
"Where is everyone?"
You looked up, seeing a black screen forming around the area and trapping you inside.
"Is this a part of the test?" You wondered, tilting your head.
"Sure, if you want to think it is."
You turned around as you detected the voice belonging to the individual behind you and blinked at his raised sword.
He brought it down and it made contact in the area between your neck and shoulder. He was hoping to marvel at the blood that he would bring out with his weapon.
What he received instead was a raised brow along with a cheeky smile.
"What do you think you're doing?"
Shigemo Haruta was expecting to get a single kill in while Mahito was on his mission to retrieve the death womb paintings since, he was told his opponents were weak.
So, why was he being lifted up in the air?
He choked, dropping the weapon in his hand as he struggled against the hand you had wrapped around his neck. He couldn't breathe, the oxygen lacking in his body and his eyes rolled back as went limp.
You failed to notice one of the purple markings on his face disappearing.
Dropping him to the floor, you crouched down to check if he was still breathing and noted his chest moving up and down.
"I better check up on the others." You said out loud, standing up and walking away from Haruta who was pretending to be unconscious.
As soon as you were away, Haruta opened his eyes, making sure you were truly gone before a sigh of relief left his lips.
"She took away one of my lives. How the hell is she so strong?!"
Unknown to you, choking Haruta with the strength you possess...
You had accidently killed the cursed user instead of making him faint. If it wasn't for his cursed technique, he probably wouldn't have lived to see another day.
"If I see her again, I'm running the other way."
---------------------------------------------------
You could see ahead, a battle was occuring and from what you could tell, the curse seemed to be really strong. You gathered enough strength in your legs to spring up into the air, your vision catching sight of Itadori and Todo fighting against the curse.
You landed on the ground with gentle steps before taking off towards the area the battle was taking place, appearing by their side which in turn startled Itadori.
Todo glanced down at you for a moment, his eyebrows furrowing with a hint of confusion.
"[L/N]-senpai, what are you doing here?" Itadori asked.
"I'm here to help get rid of the boss."
Todo and Itadori blinked over your words before the truth dawned on them.
You hadn't realised the school had been infiltrated and thought this was all a part of the test.
"W-Wait, senpai-"
You rushed towards Hanami, easily evading several vines coming your way and closed the distance between you in a few seconds.
'Foolish human, what can you do against me?'
"Don't be so judgmental."
A vine shot up from where you stood and Hanami watched as you jumped up before suddenly vanishing before they're perspective.
'Normal Punch'
Hanami withstood the punch that made contact with their back and your eyebrows raised in surprise.
"Oh...you actually survived it."
Hanami may have seemed fine on the outside but the blow they took had shattered a few bones.
'What are you, human?' They asked, honestly curious by the power withheld by someone who only had little amounts of cursed energy.
"You just answered your own question." You let out a snort of amusement.
The ground trembled under your feet as fresh vines, thick as tree trunks, had erupted from the earth and snaked towards you with eerie precision.
"Don't you have any more tricks?" You asked, bored of the use of vines.
You leaped into action, smashing through the set of vines with an earth-shattering blow.
"I need to get closer." You mumbled.
Dodging and weaving, you danced between the onslaught, your movements a symphony of grace and strength.
You managed to close the distance between you and for a second, fear ran through Hanami as they witnessed a glint in your eyes showing you held the power to kill them.
"[L/N]-senpai!!! Gojo is using his technique!!" Itadori yelled.
You looked to your right and just as your feet touched the ground, you hit the reverse button and forced your body to move in time of avoiding Gojo's purple technique.
"That was close." You said as you landed next to the two boys.
Itadori stared at you in disbelief as you laughed off the fact that you were almost obliterated by Gojo.
"Wait...but, why did Gojo-sensei take care of the boss curse? Aren't we supposed to do that for the test?" You asked, looking at them with genuine confusion.
Itadori didn't have it in him to tell you the truth as you gazed at him and Todo with an innocent look but, thankfully, Todo didn't know you too well so he was quick to explain.
"This isn't a part of the test. The school was infiltrated by special grade curses."
A moment of silence went by as you and Todo stared at each other while Itadori stood on the side in an awkward way until you broke the moment apart by finally responding.
"For real?"
