"Oh come on Kuina. Don't tell me you're giving up already" Mahito says as he jumps onto the road above them as Kuina follows right after him.

"I don't give up. Never" Kuina says as she punches him, sending him flying.

Kuina jumps onto Mahito as she starts to repeatedly punch him. Mahito just lays there laughing as his face becomes more and more bloody. Kuina screams as she puts her fists together and she slams them both into Mahito's face. All of a sudden, a spike impales Kuina through her stomach as she is lifted into the air. The spike throws her away from Mahito as Kuina struggles to move, knowing she probably isn't going to land this one. Kuina grabs her pendant and tears it from her neck as Xavier forms and grabs her. Xavier looks directly at Mahito as he lands a few feet from him.

"Let me handle this Kuina" Xavier says as he puts Kuina down and lets her rest for a moment.

"Am I being targeted by Xavier Sukuna right now? This is like a dream" Mahito says in awe of Xavier's presence as Xavier pulls out his silver impaler nun chucks.

"Have you ever been struck by a special grade cursed weapon before?" Xavier asks as he spins his nun chucks on his fingers as Mahito shakes his head, "this is gonna do more than tickle, fool!".

Xavier hits Mahito with his nun chucks as each time, the sheer impact takes a chunk out of Mahito's flesh, the energy from the nun chucks making it impossible for Mahito to heal himself.

"You know I could just keep on hitting you with these, taking chunks out of you, reducing you to nothing. Or... I could do this!" Xavier says as he picks up Kuina and holds her, "domain expansion: abyssal throne room".

All of a sudden, Xavier, Kuina and Mahito are all submerged in darkness. Kuina loses contact with Xavier as a bright chandelier hands over a single crystal throne in the middle, Xavier sat atop it, a large silver and crystal crown adorning his head, perfectly sitting with the black horns that grow from his skull.

"What the hell is this?" Mahito asks as he looks around, "well, I guess I have to compliment you. This is some fine work".

"I do not require your compliments, rodent" Xavier says as he leans forwards in his throne.

"But the thing about domain expansions is that, if it's strong on the inside, it's weaker on the outside" Mahito says as something starts to punch through, "my transfigured humans are here to help me".

"I think you forgot my partner in crime has an amazing ability to transfer her cursed energy into anything. That includes domain expansions" Xavier says as Kuina places her hands on the ground.

Kuina shuts her eyes as hot pink energy forms underneath her hands. The transfigured humans all fall inside of the domain as Kuina keeps forcing her cursed energy out.

"What do you think happens when a cursed spirit or jujutsu sorcerer of a lower grade than me steps into my domain?" Xavier asks as he clicks his fingers.

They all exit the domain where Mahito and his transfigured humans all disappear.

"You did it" Kuina says as she stands up as Xavier turns to look at her as he realises she's incredibly weak and she's losing a large amount of blood from her wound, "I can't feel the bastard anymore. Thank you, Xavier".

Xavier walks over to Kuina and picks her up.

"Come on, let's go get your friends" Xavier says as they walk off.

Xavier and Kuina meet up with Nobara and Yuji as they go to find Megumi.

"And then I went bah and Kugisaki when gwah. And then she brought out the scary doll thingy and she went pah and wah and the death painting went boom!" Yuji says as they find Megumi who sits up.

"F-Fushiguro?" Nobara and Yuji ask.

"Oh, you're back" Megumi says as he looks at them, "I'm glad you're safe".

"I-I was so scared" the two idiots say at the same time, "I thought you were dead. Thank goodness!".

"Could you lower your voices?" Kuina asks, "everything hurts".

"Oi Megumi. Don't go to sleep with Sukuna's finger in your hand!" Nobara says as she spots the finger.

"Just contact Nitta-san for now" Megumi says as he looks at Kuina, "and you compress him again".

"Ooh no can do" Xavier says.

"He's right. I just got stabbed in the stomach and I practically gave all of my cursed energy to Xavier's domain expansion. I don't think I could even fight Yuji right now even if I wanted to" Kuina says as they all spot how badly Kuina's bleeding, "if I compress Xavier, he'll stop healing me. I can die if you want me to though".

"Oi!" Megumi shouts.

"Kuina, do you wanna fight? I wanna say I beat you" Yuji says as he looks at her.

"We need to get this finger sealed as soon as we can" Megumi says as he holds the finger in his hand.

"Megumi's right. I can feel the cursed spirits coming this way" Kuina says as she looks around.

"Should I eat it?" Yuji asks as he points to himself.

"It's not leftovers" Nobara says as she rolls her eyes.

"We don't have a clear idea of how many fingers you can handle" Megumi says as he holds out the finger to Yuji, "but since you're the one with the most energy, but don't you dare it eat it!".

"Do you think I'm some kind of dog?" Yuji asks as he holds out his hand to grab the finger.

"Wait don't!" Xavier says as Sukuna forms a mouth on Yuji's palm and eats the finger.

Yuji fights with Sukuna as he gets stronger.

"He said not to eat it!" Nobara and Kuina shout.

"Who? Me?" Yuji asks as he sticks out his tongue before looking at him hand, "this guy seriously. He hardly did any work this time either. Is Gojo-sensei just winging it?".

"You just realised now?" Kuina asks.

"Hey! You four!" Nitta shouts from the top of the bridge as they all look up, "what have you four been doing?".

"Oh, it's Nitta-san!" Nobara says as she waves at Nitta.

"She's lost it" Yuji says.

"You didn't answer my calls!" Nitta shouts as she waves her fist at them, "what's the big idea?".

"Well, shall we go home?" Yuji asks as he helps Megumi up.

"I'm hungry" Nobara complains as they all start to walk away, "I wonder if there's a splendid sushi around here".

"Splendid sushi's bullet train was amazing, wasn't it?" Xavier says as he looks at her.

"You're so weird, Xavier" Nobara says as Xavier looks at Kuina who nods.

--- meanwhile, in the cursed spirits hide out ---

"Geto-san, the stock certificate" Mahito says as they all play a board game.

One of the newer members, Choso, goes to put down his piece when he stops.

"What's the matter, Choso?" Geto asks as he notices Choso's behaviour.

"Hurry up!" Mahito says as he holds out his hand to Geto only for Choso to break the piece he was playing with, "hey! Don't break the pieces!".

"My younger brothers died" Choso says as he looks at Mahito who only just recently got back from faking his death.

"You can tell?" Geto asks.

"What's going on?" Choso asks as he glares at Mahito.

"Hey, don't look at me. I only just made it out of there alive. I can't go anywhere near that Kuina girl, she'll sense me coming. She knows my energy now" Mahito says as he sighs, "I told you I wasn't going to interfere with your brothers and I didn't. It's not my fault they died".

"It's one thing if he was fully manifested but I find it hard to believe that those two died by a single finger" Choso says as he looks at Geto.

"Jeez, do we have anymore?" Mahito asks as he roots through the box for a spare piece,

"Hold on!" Geto says as he phone buzzes as he looks at it.

"Why did you break it?" Mahito complains.

"We just received a report" Geto says with a chuckle, "Eso and Kechizu were killed by the first years of Jujutsu High, Yuji Itadori and Nobara Kugisaki. The cursed spirit that was cursing the bridge was exorcised by Megumi Fushiguro. The remaining curses that were heading for Sukuna's finger found with the curse Megumi exorcised were killed by the sheer amount of cursed energy Kuina Gojo was letting off. Oh she's back at it again with releasing all of her cursed energy. It's a handy technique I might say".

--- at Kyoto High School ---

"Even amongst sorcerers, the rank of special grade is a position beyond the normal scope" Principal Gakuganji says as he sits at his desk, "it's my belief that first grades are the ones who ought to lead sorcerers and the jujutsu world. The danger, confidential information, and pay that they deal with is nothing like what those semi first grade and below do. So with that in mind, what did you just say?".

"Maki Zenin, Panda" Mei Mei says.

"Megumi Fushiguro, Nobara Kugisaki, my brother Yuji Itadori" Todo says, "these are the five that by my name, Aoi Todo".

"And I by the same of Mei Mei" Mei Mei says.

"Recommend for first grade" Mei Mei and Todo say together.

"Hmm and what about you, Kento Nanami?" Principal Gakuganji asks as he looks at Nanami.

"I by the name of Kento Nanami recommend Kuina Gojo for special grade" Nanami says as he looks directly at the principal.

--- somewhere in the middle of Tokyo ---

"I think the two of you are buying way too much" Yuji complains as he and Megumi carry all of Nobara and Kuina's bags.

"Half of those are you two's right?" Kuina says.

"We've only got one bag each!" Megumi complains as well.

Yuji stumbles as he manages to save the shopping.

"Drop even one and you're dead!" Nobara says as she glares at Yuji.

"Right" Yuji says as one of Nobara's new scarves slips from the bag and falls to the ground.

"I said drop even one and you're dead!" Nobara shouts as she punches Yuji.

Everyone starts to look as Megumi and Kuina turn and walk the other way.

"I'm sorry, it wasn't on purpose" Yuji says as Kuina's phone buzzes.

K: What do you want?
S: We've got a mission for you.
K: Yeah.
S: Should I send you the location?
K: Yeah.
S: Are you going to answer yeah to every single one of my questions?
K: Yeah.
S: Am I an idiot?
K: Yeah.
S: Am I the best brother in the entire world?

"Satoru has a mission for us, he just sent the location" Kuina says as she hangs up the call.

"What? Didn't we just take care of one?" Nobara asks as Kuina and Megumi walk back over to them.

"Why not?" Yuji asks happily, "if it's from Gojo-sensei, it might be top secret! It might be a really big one!".

"They usually like that anyways" Megumi says.

"They're like that all the time" Kuina says.

"Yeah, but so what?" Yuji says with a smile as they all walk off.
