His body slid across the rocks, every single one feeling like a separate bullet entering his body. His head hurt so much. A constant ringing in his ears annoyed him to no end.

His white demon dog was gone. Wiped like it was nothing. Dead weight. Megumi struggled to lift his head up, as if a boulder was in his head in place of his brain. Was he going to make it? The small parting of rocks sound rang out as his head fell back down. Clearly not. He was so shaken up.

His eyes shut and the ringing grew louder.

Why hadn't the curse come to kill him yet?

Did Gojo come to save him? No. Not this time. He wouldn't.

His last moments would be spent by trying to make Gojo proud.

Tears grew at the corners of his eyes, a tired smile spreading across his face. The bushes parted. The pain was only gonna be for a second and then he would be out of this hell. He didn't dare open his eyes. Until..

His head was lifted up and a female voice was heard over the ringing, asking if he was okay.
