Chereads / Megumi hime / Chapter 9 - A turn in life

Chapter 9 - A turn in life

The night was beautiful, dark sky was shining with uncountable stars and a big moon, it was more beautiful with the company of eachother, but there was a figure hiding in the darkness of the shadow who saw everything happened on the roof top.....

~Few days later~

There is a ruckus in the medical room, Nobara, Maki, Panda, Mr. Ijichi are waiting outside of the room. Ms. Shoko, Mr. Masamichi and Mr. Nanami are inside taking care of a seriously injured sorcerer.

Nobara's POV

I can't believe what I just heard...,

Me, Megumi and Yuuji were assigned to a mission, some traces of a curse of special grade 1 was found in an area and we were told to take a look and collect information without involving with any fighting.

But before that I was told to exorcise a curse in a store which is really easy for me.

We decided that I will meet with them at the location after I deal with the store one. But everything changed when I got a call from Maki senpai,

"Nobara, where are you now?"

"On my way to meet with Yuuji and Megumi at the location, why?"

"You should hurry back now...."

"Why?? What happened?"

"*Pause*... you will know when you get here."

End of call.... 'What does she mean I will know when I get there.'

I hurried back to Jujutsu tech, I saw Maki senpai was waiting for me in front of the main gate. After seeing me, she took me by my hand and took me don't know where,

"What happened? Where are we going?"

But said nothing except pulling me with her. We stopped in front of a room, Panda senpai and Mr. Ijichi were waiting in front of the room, I take look on the board on door,

-Medical Room-

'Why are we gathered in front of the medical room? And where are the others?'

Everyone has a tension with sad look on their face, I looked towards Maki senpai hoping for some explanation.

"Embrace yourself Nobara because the thing I'm going to tell is going to be a lot to take in for you."

I took a peek on others and look back at her with a nod, indicating her to continue,

"Ms. Shoko, Mr. Nanami and Mr. Masamichi are inside, Ms. Shoko is treating a seriously injured sorcerer... MEGUMI FUSHIGURO."

'What does she mean by that.....?'

"What do you mean by seriously injured?? What happened to Megumi?? How can he be injured?? Aren't we supposed to do a mission together?? And where is Yuuji??"

I started panicking, Maki senpai put her left hand on my mouth and indicate me to stay silent.

She took me a little far away from the room so that they don't get disturbed, Panda senpai and Mr. ijichi also followed us,

"Please stay calm, I will explain everything thing."

I sat down on the floor, Mr. Ijichi gave me a water bottle. I drink some and look back at her, she continued....

"Gojo sensei and we were talking about our training when we saw Yuuji was running towards us with injured Megumi in his arms. We rushed towards him and Panda went ahead to inform about this to medical room, Megumi was unconscious and bleeding slot. Yuuji was injured too."

Panda senpai continued,

"We took both of them to get treated and also informed other teachers. Other teachers came and went inside, we were waiting outside the room. Suddenly Gojo sensei called for Toge and a few minutes later Toge and Gojo sensei dragged Yuuji out of the room to another room."

Mr. Ijichi said, "It's said that Sukuna did this to Megumi. Beside that we don't know anything."

My head is in mess, it is too much to take in. I asked,

"Yuuji.... Where is he now?"

"He is tied down in the training hall and Gojo-san and Toge are keeping an eye on him." Mr. Ijichi replied.

"Why tied down?" We all asked at the same time.

"Cause Sukuna has taken over Yuuji's body and Yuuji isn't able to take control over his body."

We all are shocked, I assume that Maki senpai and Panda senpai also didn't know about it. We all looked towards the floor because we all are helpless right now, we can't do anything except waiting. We returned back in front of the medical room and kept waiting.

~Inside the Medical room~

Megumi is laying down on a stretcher and Ms. Shoko is treating his wounds and examine his body, Mr. Nanami and Principal are standing in a corner waiting for any update regarding Megumi's health.

"So, what do you think? Is he in any critical situation?"

"No, till now everything is under my control. I need to examine for a little while."

"It's Megumi's luck that Yuuji regained his consciousness and brought him here in time."

"But now Sukuna again took over Yuuji's body and keeps saying that he did nothing."

"We need to know what actually happened there and Megumi is the only one who can tell us."

Nanami and Principal were busy with their discussions when they interrupted by a shocked voice,

"WHAT'S THIS...??"

They looked towards from where the sound came, Shoko has a strange expression on her face. They went closer to her, she is examining Megumi's stomach when she saw something weird in there. She took a closer look and others follow her sight but they aren't able to notice anything.

"How can this happen??"

Shoko folded her arms, she can't believe what just she saw now.

"Umm... What happened? Is there something wrong?"

"Actually this portion in Megumi's belly is kind of weird." She pointed the place with her finger.

"This place here USED to has a deep injury.... Yes USED TO but not anymore. Some how the cells in this area regenerated themselves, don't know how."

"WHAT.... That's impossible, how can this happen."

"That's what I'm thinking too. WHAT ACTUALLY HAPPENED THERE....?!!"

Everything is in a mess right now, nobody knows what actually happened there except Megumi himself but for that it's important for him to be conscious.

ON THE OTHER HAND...

~Training room~

Everything is also in chaos here too, Yuuji whose body is under Sukuna's control now. Gojo and Toge have him tied up, he was on the floor on his knees. Gojo is sitting on a chair and beside him is Toge who is ready to help his Gojo sensei anytime.

"So will you open your mouth now..... Why did you do that?"

*Scoff*

"I'm not bound to answer you and you can't make me."

Gojo made a strong fist with his right hand that even his nerves are popping out. He stood up from his and lift up his hand to give Sukuna a punch but he stopped himself.

"Why did you stop? Come on, beat me..... What.....?? You can't?!!"

*Sukuna laughed out louder*

Gojo pushed the chair with his leg and went to a corner putting his hand on his head.

~Sukuna's territory~

Sukuna is on his throne and Yuuji is sitting on some random bones down the throne.

"Hey... Give me my body back or tell them what really happened there. I was unconscious so I don't know but YOU KNOW EVERYTHING, then why don't just tell them."

"I'm not giving explanation to anyone, I don't care what they fuckn think about me and I'm not I'm not giving back the control unless I see Megumi in his senses. Now keep quiet or I'll make you."

This is a very difficult time for everyone, specially for Megumi, Yuuji and Sukuna and the only one who can solve this is laying unconscious. The only thing they all can do is keep waiting for Megumi to wake up.

~Timeskip~

Everyone is waiting outside of the medical room when suddenly the door opened, Nanami came through the door. They surrounded him hoping for some update on Megumi's situation.

"Nanami sensei, how is Megumi doing? Is he out of danger."

"Yes according to Ms. Shoko he is out of danger but she can't tell anything before he became conscious."

Everyone's face dropped its a good news that Megumi is not in danger but they were hoping for something more good.

"Can see him for a bit, sensei?" Nobara asked.

"Okay, but only you." He gave permission to her and went to meet with Gojo.

Nobara went inside the room, principal and Shoko are talking standing in a corner.

"Can I have a look of Megumi??"

Ms. Shoko nodded to go ahead, she went and stood in front of Megumi, he is injured and paler than usual. His eyes are closed but he is still breathing, he is alive. A drop of water came out of Nobara's left eye, she closed her both eyes and wipe off the year on her face when she heard something.She opened her eyes and found Megumi's lips moving, he is saying something.

She put her right ear closer to Megumi's face, trying to hear is he saying,

"Sukuna....."

"Sukuna....."

"Sukuna....."

Megumi is kept repeating Sukuna's name. Her eyes got wider,

"What happened Nobara??"

Nobara get back in her senses, she lift up her head and look towards the principal and Ms. Shoko,

"Megumi..... came..... conscious.....!!!"

Ms. Shoko rushed and started to examine Megumi.

Nobara went backwards to give Ms. Shoko some space,

'Did I heard right....?? Megumi was keep mumbling Sukuna's name..... Why??'
