Chapter 7: Loss
DISCLAIMER: I DON'T OWN JUJUTSU KAISEN, ALL CREDIT GOES TO THE AUTHOER GEGE AKUTAMI-SENSEI. I ONLY OWN THE PLOT OF THIS STORY.
Seventh chapter! I've been updating and working on other JJK fanfic. Two are short-story ones. And one of them is a "JJK Facts and Theories" one. Like all the facts of the anime/manga and theories I have about it. For me that seems pretty interesting.
And just a few minutes ago, I updated a new Fanfic too, "The King's Descendants" also a JJK one.
Anyways, I'm sorry for any grammar or spelling errors.
Enjoy.

When she came too, she saw an all too familiar place. She was clearly in a hospital. One thing she noticed after noticing her surroundings, was the pain she felt in her small body.
It hurt so much, it hurt to the point that she began to cry.
She wanted to see her mother, father and Yuuji.
"Mama.... Papa.... Yuuji!" Her small voice stuttered out.
At her cries, a figure came to her and gently pat her head. That pat felt as if she was being hit with something hard over and over again. So, she cried even more.
"Shina." The familiar voice of her grandfather called out to her.
Her teary eyes looked up towards the sound of the voice and saw her grandfather. Her small lips trembled at seeing him.
"It's okay. I'm here." He gently said.
She rarely saw him speak so gently before; she couldn't lie that he did scare her when she first heard him talk because he sounded as if he was angry. But she later on realized that was just the way he spoke.
Shina looked at his face and noticed how red his eyes looked and how pale his face was. She knew that things were anything but okay.
Looking away from him, her eyes darted around the room as she painfully turned her head side to side, until she caught glimpse of her brother in the bed beside hers.
She felt a knot form in her throat as she saw the visible bandages and gauze on his cheek.
She found Yuuji, but.... where were their parents? Were they in another room? Maybe they were in the intensive care unit?
She tried to rationalize what had happened in her head, but the memory of what she had wanted to prevent came to mind.
Never once in the anime nor manga did it state how or when Yuuji's parents had died. The only thing she knew was that they died when he was still very young.
'No. Please no. I can't lose them!' She cried in her heart.

Wasuke looked down at his two-year-old granddaughter as her eyes filled with tears and trailed down the corner of her eyes.
He knew that she was most likely in pain. It wouldn't be surprising with the injuries she had. Bruises covered the majority of her body. Cuts from glass on her cheeks, neck and arms. Some deeper than others.
Yuuji as well had many bruises, more than she did. Maybe it had to do with the way the car fell on his side. He was surprised that the children, especially Yuuji had survived the accident.
'If only....' His heart ached as he looked at his grandchildren.

When Yuuji woke up, he cried as well from the pain, but soon after quieted down after the medication began to take effect and numb the pain.
Yuuji looked like a lost and startled animal as he tried to sit up and look around.
He felt his shoulders slightly sag in relief as he saw Shina in the bed next to his. And seeing his grandfather there made him feel a bit better.
"Where are mama and papa?" Yuuji asked.
Wasuke looked away from his grandson. He couldn't look at either of them at the moment, he knew that he wouldn't be able to speak seeing the hopeful look in Yuuji's eyes as he asked for his parents.
"They're not here." Wasuke said as he clenched and unclenched his teeth.
"When are they coming back?"
Wasuke looked at Yuuji but said nothing.

They were in the hospital for two days. Fortunately, neither of them had any fractures or broken bones.
At this moment, both siblings knew that something was wrong. One already knowing that their parents were most likely deceased. While the other was scared that they hadn't seen their parents, and worried if they were really hurt.
All those questions were answered the following day when all three of them were dressed in black and in a service hall. A room where pictures of their parents were on an altar. A room where there were flowers, and many people coming in and out. Each person giving their condolences to them.
Before coming there, Wasuke had told the siblings that their parents were no longer there with them. That they would be looking over them from where they were.
"Are they with grandma?" Yuuji asked as his eyes filled with tears at hearing this.
Wasuke nodded, and Yuuji cried.
Itadori Yuuji and Itadori Shina were now in the care of their only family member after the death of their parents.
Wasuke was now their guardian. Wasuke was now all they had.
March 10, 2008, their parents had died. His son and daughter-in-law had died.
This was a loss that neither of them wanted.
________________________________________________________________________________________________
They all grieved in their own way. Wasuke might seem like a strong man, who didn't even shed a tear. But he was deeply hurting inside.
He had lost his only son, he was the only family he had, aside from his grandchildren. He didn't let anyone see him cry, he shed a few tears when he was alone.
Yuuji on the other hand, he cried. He cried his little heart out because his parents were gone. He was no longer going to see his father smiling at him in the morning, see his mother laughing at something that was said.
Never being able to go outside to make snowmen and play in the snow as a family.
He cried his eyes raw until he could no longer cry. He cried until he felt all his tears had dried up. It was that moment that he made a vow to himself. That he would look after and protect his grandpa and Shina. They were all he had now.
__________________________________________________________________________________________
Shina cried. She cried in pain of the loss of her parents, she cried from the frustration and self-loathing at herself for not being able to do anything.
She was two years old, there was nothing she could really do, but it ate at her that she knew her parents were going to die, and yet she couldn't do anything at all.
She had left her family in her previous life, and it hurt so much leaving them. And now in this life, she lost her parents.
Parents who lovingly and with great care raised her for two years, almost three years now. Even though she knew them for two years, she loved them. If she were like any other average child, she wouldn't remember them for long, maybe faint memories.
But not her. She knows and remembers everything. She will never forget her parents.
Parents that were snatched away from them all because of a cursed spirit pushing at their car and throwing it over the side of the road and fall into a deep ditch with trees and rocks.
She didn't know the purpose of being able to see cursed spirits, but now there was a purpose. She knew that she most likely had cursed energy, so she would find some way to destroy the cursed spirits and keep her family safe.
Keep her grandfather and Yuuji safe.

Yuuji's birthday came and went as well as Shina's. They didn't want to celebrate the birthdays. To them it didn't feel right to celebrate when their parents were gone.
Yuuji didn't want to go to pre-school. Every year on one of the children's birthdays, they would all sing to them, and their teacher would bring cupcakes.
Yuuji didn't want that. Maybe next year, but right now he didn't want it.

Their loss was heavy and painful, but they would get through this together as a family.

I honestly felt like crying when typing this up and reading it for any mistakes (which I think I may have missed a few).
It was so sad just imaging crying at their loss.
So, that's it for now. Hope you enjoyed it.
