Zodia's POV
Zodia stepped through the glowing orange portal, tears in her eyes as she turned to give the turtles and their friends one last wave goodbye before it closed. As she turned to survey her surroundings, her vision blurred and she felt a familiar sensation of intense buzzing throughout her energy and physical body. Zodia doubled over, gritting her teeth in pain and leaning against the tech-scythe Donnie had given her as her vibration and form began shifting to match this new world. Once it finally subsided, Zodia took a moment to gather her bearings before standing up, blinking slowly to regain her vision as she pushed her glasses onto her nose. The room she had stepped into looked like a Japanese classroom with shoji doors and a large chalkboard behind what appeared to be a teacher's desk made of a light cypress wood.
"Mkay... so... It appears that I will have to find a way back to America..." she thought aloud, "Joy... man, that is going to be difficult..."
As she was thinking, Zodia noticed a black goop dripping down the walls of the classroom that seemed to pulsate with a dark energy, "Or not... that didn't happen in my world..."
Zodia stepped back with a deep sigh as she brushed her fingers through the short left side of her hair, "Great... so we're back to square one and I have no idea what world I have found myself in..."
The goop slowly morphed, melding into a blob-like creature with white eyes before swiftly lunging at her. Zodia jumped back in surprise, her scythe slashing through the air and slicing through the creature, but the being melded itself back together.
"Ah shit..." Zodia snapped into focus, feeling her energy buzz through her and filling her tech-scythe as she spun to the side, narrowly avoiding another attack from the blob creature. Leaning the scythe over her shoulder as if it were a gun, she gathered energy into her weapon and fired an energetic missile that hit the creature, causing it to blast apart and disappear in a puff of black smoke. Zodia took a moment to regain her bearings from the shock of the sudden encounter, "Huh... must've been a low level- whatever that thing was..."
Zodia opened the sliding shoji door before peeking her head out of the classroom to glance up and down the hallway, ensuring no one was there. As she stepped out into the hallway, she took note of the rundown appearance of the school, "This place must be abandoned..."
As she walked through the hallways in search of a way out of the school, she began to hear noises from above that sounded like a fight happening. Zodia quickly found a staircase and began sprinting up toward the noises which seemed to be coming from the roof. Bursting out onto the rooftop, her chocolate doe eyes widen in shock as she took in the sight of a boy with black spiky hair and dark eyes fighting a massive grotesque looking creature. She noticed a boy with messy pink hair and bright golden brown eyes held tightly in place above the creature's massive jaws and as she watched in shock, the pink haired boy swallowed what looked like a shriveled up finger. Zodia couldn't help gagging a bit at the sight, muttering quietly to herself, "Oh that is so much grosser in person than it was on screen..." Then her eyes widen as she remembered what was about to happen and she sprang into action just as the pink haired boy broke free.
Zodia summoned her energy, imagining it as waves in every form surrounding her and flowing into the tech-scyth in her hands as she rushed across the damaged roof on the abandoned school. She leapt into the air, the blade of her scythe slashing downward as she flipped, slicing through the monster and sending a blast of energetic waves through the creature, causing it to disappear in a cloud of black smoke.
"Who the hell are you?" the spiky black haired boy growled in annoyance before shaking off his initial frustration, "Nevermind that- we've got a situation on our hands. That object Yuuji just swallowed-"
"Sukuna's cursed finger," Zodia cut him off seriously, "I know."
A dark chuckle escaped from the pink haired boy as he had transformed, now having four eyes and long black talons in place of his fingernails. Black tribal markings appeared on his arms and face as well as the boy began to laugh wickedly, "I knew it! The night feels best in the flesh!" He ripped off his yellow jacket and tee shirt, "Cursed flesh is so boring. So now, where are the people? The women?" He stepped up onto the railing, spreading his arms as he continues, "What a wonderful era to be reawakened! Women and children are crawling everywhere like maggots! How marvelous! It'll be a massacre!" As he began to laugh again, one of his hands grabbed his face as if with a mind of its own, pulling him back as Yuuji's voice came out again, "What do you think you're doing with my body? Give it back!"
"Hey, wait," the low gruff voice of Sukuna spoke again in confusion and surprise, "How are you doing that?"
"Well, it's my body," Yuuji replies firmly, his tone determinedd as he held Sukuna in place.
"Wait," Sukuna made to speak again, but Yuuji was already returning to normal as the black haired boy took up a stance.
"Stay right where you are," the black haired boy shouted firmly, "You're no longer human!"
Yuuji turned to the boy with surprise and confusion as the boy continues, "Under jujutsu regulation, Yuuji Itadori, by law, I will now exorcize you as a curse!"
Yuuji raised his hands to show he meant no harm, the tribal markings and cursed features slowly fading away, "No really, I'm feeling fine. Besides, you and I are both pretty beat up. Shouldn't we see a doctor?"
"What's the situation?" a familiar smooth voice spoke up suddenly in a serious tone as a man appeared next to the black haired boy. The man was wearing a black uniform similar to the one the black haired boy was wearing, and his eyes were covered by a matching blindfold, his fluffy white hair blowing in the wind.
"Satoru Gojo?" the black haired boy turned in surprise, "What are you doing here?"
"Hey," he gave a casual wave, his tone amused more than anything, "I wasn't planning on showing up, but you got kinda roughed up kid!" With a laugh, the white haired man pulled out his phone and began snapping photos of the black haired boy's face, "I'll show the second years." Then he took notice of Zodia and the advanced tech-scythe she held in her hands, "And who is this? You've got some serious energy at your disposal, but I haven't seen you around before- you're not from here, are you, girly?"
Zodia froze for a moment at being addressed by the senseii she had admired in the anime before she quickly cleared her throat, "Uh yeah, that's kind of a long story- one best told later(and alone)." She gave him a serious and pointed look as she pulled her energy from the scythe, pressing a button on the panel in order to make the blade retract and the staff fold up into a small cylinder. Zodia tucked the cylinder into a hidden pocket on her skirt as she continues, "I promise that I have no intentions of causing any sort of trouble- I'm only looking for a way home."
"Woah- cool scythe!" Gojo commented as if he hadn't been paying attention. Then he gave a casual shrug, "Alright, later then-" He turned to the black haired boy, "I got an earful from the higher ups cuz the special grade cursed object is still missing- thought I'd do a little sight seeing before stopping by. So, d'you find it yet?"
The black haired boy looked at the ground and Zodia spoke up, pointing to the pink haired boy, "He ate it."
Gojo looked at Yuuji with a dumbfounded expression beneath his blindfold, "Really?"
"Sorry," the pink haired boy spoke awkwardly, "but I did."
The blindfolded man moved to examine Yuuji, letting out a surprised laugh after a moment, "Damn, it really did combine with you- that's hilarious."
Zodia had to hold back a snicker at Gojo's antics. She had always been amused by the white haired senseii's goofy antics in the anime series, but to see him in person was a whole new experiennce as he began to question Yuuji.
"Anything weird about your body?" the senseii asked curiously as he analyzed the situation.
"Nah," Yuuji replies as he examined his form, "Seems okay."
"Can you switch with Sukuna at will?"
"Sukuna?"
"Yeah, the curse you ate?"
"Oh," Yuuji nodded with a hum of confirmation, "Yeah, I think I can do that."
The blindfolded senseii began to stretch as he replies, "Okay- give us ten seconds. Then change right back into yourself."
"Yeah, but-"
"Don't worry," Gojo flashed a confident grin, "I'm way too strong for him." He tossed a gift bag to the black haired boy, "Megumi, hold onto this for me!"
"What is this?" the black haired boy asked in confusion.
"Kikufuku from Kikusuya," Gojo replies in an amused tone as he continues to stretch, "It's sendai's specialty and it's super good! I reccomend the tsunda and cream flavor!" Almost as though reading Megumi's thoughts, Gojo corrected the black haired boy's unspoken words of disbelief, "It's no souvenir! I'll be eating this on the bullet train ride home!"
Zodia and Megumi both spoke up as they noticed that Yuuji had finished switching with Sukuna and had jumped into the air for an attack, "Look out!" Their eyes squeeze shut in anticipation as Sukuna hit the ground. After a moment, they open them again to see Gojo sitting on Sukuna's back and Zodia couldn't help letting out a bark of laughter, "Oh that is so much funnier in person!"
"Ah, so that's where you're from, eh girly?" Gojo had taken notice of her comment with a knowing smirk, "Let's keep that between us for now, yeah?"
Zodia's expression shifted to one of surprise then understanding as she realized that Gojo could likely sense other worlds in the multiverse due to his Limitless and Six Eyes techniques, "Understood, senseii!"
"Oh? Already calling me senseii?" Gojo teased from atop Sukuna's back, "How did you know I wanted you in my class?"
Sukuna let out a growl as he twisted in an attempt to get at Gojo, but Gojo moved too fast for him to catch as he continued talking to Zodia, "You must be a fan if you know me that well! Now I've gotta hear your story- I'll bet it's a wild ride!"
Zodia struggled to contain her amusement at the spectacle Gojo was making of Sukuna as the blindfolded man suddenly turned to throw a punch, his energy blasting Sukuna back and causing rubble to fly through the air around them.
"For crying out loud," Sukuna spoke in an annoyed tone as he rushed at Gojo to throw his own energy fueled punch, "You jujutsu sorcerers are always a pain in the ass in any era!"
A large section of the school was destroyed by the blow, windows breaking and floors caving under the pressure.
"Yknow," Sukuna said in a smug tone, "Time doesn't really have much meaning for me-" His eyes widen as he noticed the white haired sorcerer floating in the air, surrounded by debris.
"Seven," Gojo counted smugly, holding the debri in the air with his energy, "Eight, nine, and that should do it."
Sukuna seemed to stumble, growing almost sleepy as Yuuji takes control, his body shifting back into human form, "So, how did it go?"
