Chapter 7
The Itadoris called for a meeting, saying they would be explaining the situation shortly. It's been only a day since Suiryu vanished with Sukuna over his shoulder. No one knows for certain what was happening or what they did with the king of curses… Until today.
No one moved.
They saw Suiryu and Yuuji walking towards everyone… and Sukuna was walking behind them!
Not a soul could believe what they heard come out of Yuuji's mouth.
"Hey everyone, we want to introduce our new pet. Sukuna!" Yuuji said with the biggest grin on his face.
"You're… keeping him alive… as a pet?" Nobara asked in a slow and yet very confused and uncertain tone. "WHY?!" she demanded of them.
Sukuna glared at everyone, and perhaps thinking about how he will kill everyone before him. Yuuji caught that look in his eyes. "No glaring!" he scolded.
"Fuck you"
"HEEL!"
BASH!
He went face first into the ground, prostrating himself.
"I'M GOING TO MURDER EVERY LAST ONE OF YOU!" he shouted in anger.
"Stay," Suiryu ordered as Sukuna couldn't move from his position.
Still, everyone was startled and slightly impressed at this moment. "To be honest with you, we really wanted a puppy or at least one of those mythical beasts. But, we haven't proven to mom we could have a pet yet. So… he's going to be our little test pet to see if we are ready!" Yuuji said and smiled to the masses.
Making his way through the crowd to see this was Gojo, his phone was on Sukuna. "You seeing this okay?"
He was video chatting with Yua who was still restrained to bed rest. "Are you serious!?" she shouted.
"Hey Yua! You like our pet?" asked Suiryu.
"I'M NOT A GODDAMN DOG!"
"He's a little rough but we can train it out of him." Suiryu snickered.
"You two sure about this, I mean what happens if…"
"Can't." Yuuji said flat out. "The collar is made from me and Suiryu. Think of it like a binding vow but very, very one sided. Mom said we can keep him, so, we're going to do just that!" he said proudly.
Gojo on the other hand appeared to be smiling a wicked grin. "Yua, mind if I…"
"Yes, go ahead, I know you want pictures." She said and turned off her video chat. From there, Gojo went to town getting picture after picture of Sukuna on the ground.
"Okay, now lift your head so I can see how pissed off you are…" said Gojo
"I… can't…" he growled lowly.
"I told him to stay, he has to stay like that until he is told otherwise," Suiryu explained.
"So is this like curse speech then?" Gojo questioned.
"Sort of, but not entirely, it's in the collar. It reacts strongly to our voices since we made it, also we sealed away most of his curse energy. So despite how he looks, Sukuna is rendered relatively human at this point. Well… still a special grade sorcerer, still strong but not overpowering. However, he has limited access to his curse energy because of the collar. We control how much he gets." Said Yuuji.
No one moved once more, not even Gojo as he took a closer look. "Whoa… seriously, very little curse energy… I got nearly nothing here…"
"What?" Sukuna whispered. "How… it's IMPOSSIBLE!" he protested.
"We got a lot stronger than before, so anything is possible." Yuuji said and patted the top of Sukuna's head. "You can stand up now."
He did just that, but as he rose up, he looked rather concerned. "How can one seal curse energy from MY body?"
"Well we were going to remove it, yet since you are too dependent on it, if we did, it would kill you. So we opted to seal it." Suiryu stated.
Sukuna froze still. "I can't even do that! If I could… I would have done it ages ago and made myself the only sorcerer!"
Suiryu smirked to him. "Like we are going to tell you everything…" he snickered once more. "Oh, bro, this is going to be awesome…"
"Just… kill me already!" Sukuna demanded. "Like HELL I am going to let you treat me like a mutt! Better still, I'll do it myself!"
"BAD BOY, NO!" scolded Yuuji. "SIT!"
The masses snickered as Sukuna was forced to sit down once more. He was getting more and more pissed off as time passed, to the point he looked as if he would scream out and unleash hell at any moment.
"Yuuji… is this really safe?" Yuko asked. "I don't want him around Kiyoshi…"
"Kiyoshi?" Sukuna muttered.
"I promise I won't keep him around Kiyoshi, he's going to sleep in a smaller house away from ours and I will make sure he stays there." Yuuji promise. He would never let a monster like that near his own child. As he peered behind him, he saw Sukuna looked about the masses, trying to put a face to the name of Kiyoshi. "For now, we are going to… break him in." he said in a rather calm, and yet unnerving tone.
"By the way, Gojo. We are leaving training to you." Suiryu said, as his smile grew wicked.
Gojo sensei was bearing a rather playful grin. "Really? You're going to let me… Ohhhh, this is going to be GOOD!" he said in an excited tone.
"KILL ME!" Sukuna demanded. "WHY WON'T YOU KILL ME ALREADY!"
"Because, you're suffering… and we want you to suffer." Suiryu said in a calm tone, but his smile only grew wicked as the time passed. "Hehe… you think this is suffering now, wait until later. We promise mom to show off the tricks you can do!"
He appeared more confused than he did startled. "Mom? What mother? I know for a fact you are both orphan bastards!" he protested. "You boy, you were created to be a mere container for me, to be MY VESSEL!"
"Ooo, mom isn't going to like that the least bit…" Yuuji said offhandedly. "Sensei, can you try to get him to stop yelling so much? It's quite unsettling for the younger students around here."
"Leave it to me!" he said proudly.
Sukuna on the other hand was looking about for anything blunt or sharp enough to use on himself…
#
Yua couldn't believe it.
It was hard to after all they have been through, and yet, there he was. The bastard that manipulated her ancestor to kill off everyone in her family for the sake of his favor… why are they keeping him!?
She didn't understand either Itadoris' motives at the moment, it was bad enough she could barely get out of bed because of the sickness she has been enduring. Having a baby isn't easy.
Still, as she laid in bed, all sorts of emotions came to her. She was pissed off he was alive, shocked and scared that he still is alive and living here… as a pet to two dragon children in a sense… but also, worry. What if he finds a way to break free? What if he manipulates this to his situation? What if his legions are going to come here to free him?
Her mind was rushed with questions, and yet no answers. She lay there, trying not to think about it so much. Yet, as she closed her eyes, a gentle knock came to the door.
"COME IN" she called.
Yuuji and Suiryu came to see her, yet Sukuna wasn't with them. "Wait, why are you…"
"It's okay, Satoru is starting his training early… we're leaving Sukuna rearing to him." Suiryu said and bore a devious grin.
"Why… why keep him alive?" she asked. "You know…"
"We do, but there's a reason." Yuuji said. "Yua… the collar on him is making certain he cannot be revived elsewhere. When Sukuna is in a physical body, the cult or whoever is trying to bring him back at full strength can no longer do so. How can they when he is already alive?" he asked of her.
She paused to notion. "Wait… so you kept him alive, so no one could bring him back to life?"
"Yep, at the same time, we use this opportunity to ensure we destroy what remains of him. His essence for one, no doubt some of his cult members have a good chunk of that. We destroy that, and anything else that would hold his energy. We eliminate him once and for all. Then, we can kill him… and get a puppy." Suiryu explained.
"What the hell is it with you wanting a dog?" she asked.
He shrugged his shoulders. "Fushiguro has divine wolves, I want the real deal now"
"They always disappear after a while," Yuuji said with a sigh. "Like the bunnies… I love the bunnies, but again, gone too soon…"
She rolled her eyes at the two of them. Despite how brilliant the plan is, when they talk about odd or silly things, they lose what credibility they had gain through a perfect notion.
But still, she laughed, the two haven't changed a bit and were taking this seriously. "Besides Yua, we didn't tell you the best part about all of this!" Suiryu said and he appeared rather proud of himself on the notion.
"What?" she asked.
She was confused until she turned to Suiryu. "There is one other thing I am working on yet for now. We can pass control of him to anyone we desire to, if you want we can bring you to him. And I will give you control. You could tell him to dance and he will dance… even if he is terrible at it."
"Make him dance, please!" Yuuji begged.
"I'll let Satoru do that…" she said offhandedly.
