After the fun and the question and answer session, Itadori work up feeling well rested but was still depressed, while lying on his bed looking at the ceiling. Tears began to fall from his eyes as he imagined his life if he had parents. Then suddenly he wiped his tears and said to himself "well I am happy this way, because if I had parents I wouldn't have met Herupa and Sensei".
Then he said to himself beating his chest "I MUST become stronger, leave this forest and live a normal life".
Itadori then walked towards the door leading out of the cabin, held the handle and took a deep breath before finally gathering enough courage to open the door. As he opened the door and looked outside, he saw his Sensei sitting outside and waiting for him. Then he said to his Sensei "Good Morning Sensei" then his Sensei replied "Good Morning. I hope you are ready to begin your training for today". Itadori then replied with a voice in confidence as he said "Yes Sensei".
The training drill was about to begin as his Sensei said "remember the joke you made the other day about running till we dropped dead". Itadori replied with a voice of suspicion as he said "yes.....". His Sensei continued by saying "well it might happen today considering that you will have to build your stamina and leg muscles for rigid stance".
Itadori replied with a frightened voice saying "buh...but we ain't going to drop dead right?".
His Sensei then replied wearing a frightening smile saying "Not entirely". Itadori started to shake in fear before his Sensei said with an actual smile "just kidding, we are just going to run till one of us pass out. And the last man standing has to carry the loser". Then Itadori said to himself "well then, I will just play dead to end the drill". Itadori then said out loud to deceive his Sensei "But isn't that suicidal".
His Sensei then replied saying "Yes it is, and also when the loser is carried back to the cabin, he shall be woken up by any means necessary and must perform a hundred push ups". Then Itadori said to himself "Damn, that rule just ruined all my plans". With Itadori bluffing with a competitive voice said "Ok Sensei, I hope you are ready to perform a hundred push ups".
His Sensei chuckled as he said "oh really. That's right before I forget, we will be performing this training six days in a week every week till I see a development. The last day of the week shall be used to rest. And also, If one of us loses three times in a row, Instead of performing a hundred push ups the loser must perform a hundred pull ups which are much difficult. Do I make myself clear". Itadori then replied "Yes Sensei".
So Itadori's and his Sensei arrived at the starting point. Then Itadori's Sensei said to Itadori "look up at that tree the highest branch, there is a leaf about to fall right". Itadori replied "Yes Sensei".
His Sensei then said "once that leaf reaches the ground the challenge begins". Itadori then said "ok, got it Sensei". Itadori's Sensei then looked at him and said "we are going to be straying far away from the cabin. So we might end up running till night falls. Point is we might encounter Monsters anytime especially at night so be at alert. The Monsters will be lurking getting ready to strike any unlucky prey. So ensure you don't fall to behind out of my reach, unless you want to die". Itadori then replied "Ok Sensei, but if it is that suicidal why are we still doing it".
His Sensei then replied with a smile saying "for the fun of it". Itadori then said "buh.....". Just before Itadori was about to finish his statement, his Sensei said "Look at the leaf, it has began to fall".
The leaf was now In mid air as Itadori and his Sensei where ready to begin the challenge. As soon as the leaf dropped on the ground. Itadori and his Sensei began to run and in less than no time his Sensei was leading the race.
Then his Sensei said "You better keep up unless you want to die". Then Itadori picked up the pace to try and catch up to his Sensei. His Sensei noticed the increase in Itadori's pace, he then without hesitation picked up his own pace.
After the act of increasing pace, Itadori finally reached top speed while his Sensei hasn't reached half of top speed.
Then suddenly while running, they both heard a loud roar. Then Itadori's Sensei yelled "Run faster Itadori, faster". With Itadori at his top speed was not able to increase in pace.
Then Suddenly, they began to hear loud footsteps approaching them. Itadori then looked back and saw a very big and scary monster approaching them fast. Then his Sensei "run faster Itadori, although that is a grade C monster". Out of fear, Itadori's pace increased but was still not able to reach his Sensei or run out of the monster's sight.
His Sensei then noticed that the monster was catching up to Itadori. So he began to slow down on order to get close to Monster. While slowing down, Itadori ran past him. His Sensei then said "Itadori keep running, don't stop". As soon as his Sensei got close to the monster, in less than a second his Sensei beheaded the monster with the sword he brought from the cabin. He then continued running with an increased pace.
Itadori's Sensei then caught up to Itadori and said "Stayed focused, don't give in to the fear". With Itadori shaking in fear replied "Ok Sensei".
They continued running for 4 hours before Itadori finally fell unconscious and his Sensei was forced to carry him back to the cabin while unconscious. On their way back, his Sensei encountered 3 grade C monster feasting on a dead animal. Then the Monsters looked at him and began to walk closer to him.
With Itadori's Sensei holding a sword and carrying Itadori on his back suddenly appeared behind the 3 grade C monster. And after exactly 3 seconds their body fell into pieces as he said "they are still weak as always".
As Itadori's Sensei arrived at the cabin, he set Itadori down on the ground as walked towards the back of the cabin. He then came back with a bucket of water and showered it on Itadori. As soon as the water touched Itadori's face, he woke up immediately panting as he said "what happened how did I get wet". His Sensei then replied "remember the rule. I can wake you up however way I want". Itadori then said "and you chose such a cruel way?". His Sensei then said smiling "yes, because it is more fun".
His Sensei then said "quickly now. I believe you have a hundred push ups to perform and after which you shall prepare dinner". Then Itadori replied with a sad voice "Ok, Sensei".
The next morning, Itadori woke and shouted in excitement "Wow, I feel stronger". He then went outside the cabin feeling energetic, he then saw his Sensei outside and said with a huge smile "Good Morning Sensei". Then his Sensei said with a straight face "why are you wearing such a disgusting smile".
Itadori then replied "Ouch, well because I feel stronger". His Sensei began to laugh as he said "you just worked out for a day and you think you are stronger. Trust me when I say this, it is all in your head. You are still the same weak Itadori". Itadori still with a strange smile said "You can't derail my morale today Sensei".
His Sensei then replied wearing a light smile saying "well you can have it your way". Itadori still motivated said "may we begin the training drill".
The training drill then began and then they encountered another grade C monster which Itadori's Sensei slaughtered. But Itadori noticed something off but chose to keep shut. Then after 4 hours of top speed running Itadori fell unconscious and was woken up by water. He was then forced to perform a hundred push ups and prepare dinner.
After dinner, Itadori told his Sensei that he had something to ask him. Then they both sat down as Itadori said "when we encountered the second monster I noticed something strange". His Sensei then asked "what did you notice Itadori".
Itadori then said "we encountered both the first and second monster at the same location". His Sensei replied "yes so?!". Itadori then said "now here is my question, did you know that we were going to encounter the first and second monsters".
Suddenly, Itadori noticed his Sensei slowly reaching for a nearby sword. Itadori quickly reached for the sword and pointed it towards his Sensei saying "you are trying to get me killed. You and Itomi, why because you don't think I am worthy". His Sensei then said "how?".
Then Itadori said "I noticed Itomi's effort to kill me when he didn't give me a warning while infusing my energy and your's earlier today when you lead me right to a monster for the second time".
With the sword still pointed at Maki and Itadori sure that Itomi and Maki are trying to kill him. Who will then train him. HOW WOULD HE ESCAPE THIS FOREST.
