*** WARNING ***
THIS CHAPTER INCLUDES SCENE OF SEXUAL HARASSMENT (It isn't rape but it can be a trigger)
It was dark outside when the first raindrops began to fall on the still-warm asphalt. In the old town side where the bars were abundant so were people at this time of night, especially with the warm weather. The rain was a bit inconvenient so people began to rush to shelter themselves.
With the haste, no one saw how a man dragged a woman half unconscious out of the back exit of a bar. It wasn't something unseen, I mean some people like to abuse alcohol or other substances. How could they know that this woman had been drugged?
Inside this bar, the night went on. A new bartender was behind the counter now while one of the bouncers was helping a woman drag her drunk boyfriend outside, or at least that's what it looked like for the customers.
Satoru was frantically trying to understand why his reversed cursed technique wasn't cleaning his body from the drug or poison or whatever this was what clouded his mind while preventing him from using his cursed energy. But whatever this substance was, it was fogging his mind too.
He tried once again carefully analyzing his body, focusing on his cursed energy, his distress about (Y/N)'s disappearance made him try harder until he felt it. There was something about his cursed energy, something foreign. That's when he understood. Surprised, he raised his head to look at the short-haired woman. Bad idea because he became dizzy.
"You okay honey? Don't worry I got you." The woman smiled at him, an evil smile.
And with that distraction, his thoughts were gone. Eventually, the trio got out of the bar and a car was already waiting for them.
Gojo was tossed in the backseat and showed aside so the woman could sit next to him. It was only a couple of seconds that the woman needed to get inside the car, but it was enough for Gojo to sober up a bit.
'That woman is a sorceress. She must be manipulating my cursed energy or something like that, preventing me from using my cursed energy, while the drug keeps me groggy.'
But the influence on him was stronger with the contact making his thoughts slip again once the woman sat next to him.
'No no no, focus damit. (Y/n) is in danger.'
The car ride was short as it ended at a building site. The sorcerer was forced out of the car and dragged inside the unfinished building.
Satoru didn't look around, too focused on fighting against the influence of the woman next to him.
"Finally I got you, you bastard."
No reaction from Satoru to the man's welcoming words.
Getting furious, the man hastened to Satoru and pulled his hair, forcing him to look up.
"I want you to look at me, you scum. I want you to see who will kill you, just as you did to my brother."
Motionless Satoru continued his fight against the woman. The bouncer was the first one to notice something was wrong.
"You okay Angela?"
The short-haired woman didn't answer. She was too focused on maintaining her influence on Gojo to hear her coworker. Sweat Drops began to build on her forehead as control seemed to slip through her fingers like water.
Then many things occurred almost simultaneously.
Satoru won, his cursed energy was free of Angela's influence, enabling him to use his reversed curse technique to get rid of the drug that clouded his movements and thoughts.
In a blink of an eye, the bouncer and Angela were dead at the hands of Satoru. He was close to killing that new guy too, but as it looked like he was the one responsible for all this, he needed him alive to know where (y/n) was. So he spared his life for now.
Jacob was a curse user hired by a man who wanted revenge on Gojo for killing his brother.
At first, Jacob was skeptical to accept this job. It would be suicide to try to kill the famous six eyes. But that man, Mark his name, had a well-made plan.
Jacob's ability was to use his cursed energy to act like a drug on other sorcerers. It would mess with the victim's mind, mobility, and cursed energy. Nonetheless, that wouldn't be enough to handle the famous limitless user.
Yet Jacob wouldn't be the only one with the ability to mess with someone's cursed energy. When Mark told Jacob about this woman named Angela and her ability, the man was convinced. Of course, money played a role too.
Mark, unlike his brother, preferred not getting involved in the Jujutsu world, becoming a successful builder. Somehow Switzerland's head of the Jujutsu community, Mr. Meier, owed him a favor. So they managed to stage all these cases of kidnapped women in the bar to get Gojo there to investigate.
One thing was unexpected though. That woman who Jacob was guarding now. It wasn't supposed for Gojo to come accompanied. The well-elaborated plan had been altered in haste. For Mark, it was no problem. For the builder, it was even a trump.
"That woman will be our hostage to keep Gojo in check."
Jacob had voiced his concerns about him using his technique on two people instead of one, it would have less effect. But everything seemed to go on plan. He had dragged the woman to the storage facility next to the bar and saw how Gojo had been escorted to the car. Everything was according to plan, and soon he would be paid.
His good mood was only improving as he let his gaze wander over the good-looking drugged sorceress. It wouldn't be the first time he used his ability to get his way with a woman. And his boss only told him not to kill that woman...
(Y/n) was tied to a chair. Her mind was far away from that storage room. She only half felt how her kidnapper touched her shoulders from behind her and slid his hands down her arms.
"You will be a good girl and do as I say, won't you?"
Those words made no sense to her as she started without focusing on the distance.
Jacob untied her hands and began to kiss her neck, his hands wandering to her legs.
That unwanted touch made (y/n) react.
"No" she managed to whisper, "stop it."
"Come on baby, I know you want it. I saw how you eyed that white-haired freak. Just think you're with him."
(Y/n)'s senses told her she was in danger. Instinctively she tried to use her cursed energy to defend herself, but she failed.
As the man continued to assault her, grabbing her body in places he shouldn't, the sorceress tried to push him back without success in her weakened state.
'I need more cursed energy.'
In her desperation she thought that the cause why she couldn't use her ability was because she was low on cursed energy, so she tried to absorb the man's cursed energy as she would do on a curse. It took a while but slowly she started to feel stronger.
"What are you doing?"
Jacob needed a bit longer to feel his cursed energy being drained. It was a strange feeling as he felt his body become weaker.
"Stop it!" He screamed in fear of the woman he was about to rape.
He saw how her tattoos began to glow, then turn dark till they were black. A pure black as he had never seen before as if it would not only absorb his cursed energy but also the light in the room.
That was when he started to cry. He didn't know what would happen to him, but he could feel the woman's hunger for his cursed energy and thought if he would die without it because that was how he felt like, as if the woman was emptying his life force.
As (Y/N) absorbed the man's cursed energy, she became drugged in another way than before. It was even more intense than that time she absorbed that special grade curse in the cemetery. She couldn't stop, not even when the man began to cry and fell to his knees. All she could think of was that she wanted more, more cursed energy.
Then he was empty.
(Y/N) felt in ecstasy as that unfamiliar cursed energy rushed through her system. The feeling of invincibility was indescribably addictive. But as the sobs of the man continued, her mind became clearer.
She looked at her hands and into her. The man's cursed energy felt foreign, unnatural, and somehow evil. Or was she who felt evil? Her burning marks began to go back to normal, but she remembered how they had turned black. As black as Sukuna's marks...
'No, this isn't right. What have I done? Is this how Sukuna became so powerful? So evil? I can't ever do that again...'
She felt bad for what she had done to the man and wanted to comfort him. As she was about to squat down, she saw her open blouse and remembered what the man was about to do to her. All her pity was gone now, replaced by anger.
"You wanted to rape me you pig?" She kicked the man in his stomach to turn him around.
Sobbing and in physical pain, he managed to say. "I-I sorry miss. I didn't want it."
"You didn't want it?" (Y/N) repeated incredulously.
Ignoring his pleadings and all his crying, she killed the man painfully, without mercy, feeling satisfaction by doing so. But then it hit her again.
'No, this isn't right. I shouldn't feel like this while killing him. I shouldn't even have killed him in the first place. What am I doing?'
Slowly she walked backward until her back hit the wall. Letting herself slide to the ground, she stared at the lifeless body of her kidnapper, thinking of what she had done and the consequences.
'I can never absorb a person's cursed energy again. It is evil. It will turn me evil. I can feel it...'
Time passed without (Y/N) being able to move or overcome her feelings of desperation. Eventually, Satoru found her. He was ready to kill whoever he needed to save her, but he wasn't expecting to find her like that.
He didn't know what happened, but seeing her like that, he thought that the man had been the first person she had killed, and Satoru knew that it could be traumatizing. He rushed to her right away, hugging her, trying to comfort her, and move her away from the body.
"(Y/N) I'm sorry, I'm so sorry that I'm late."
Satoru felt her body tremble with her sobs as she held her. All he could do was teleport them away from there.
The next morning (Y/N) woke up with swollen eyes. The memories of last night were like a nightmare, but the feeling of the foreign cursed energy in her was still sickening.
She didn't know that Satoru had been up all night to get everyone involved in the scheme. It took him a lot of willpower not to kill everyone, but if he would kill Mr. Meier with only his word as proof of his involvement, he would have problems with the higher-ups, and all he wanted now was to take care of (Y/N). He hated to see her broken like that.
"Good morning sleepy head." Satoru shouted as he entered (Y/N)'s hotel room.
"Morning." The sorceress replied in a small voice.
"What? I didn't catch that. Come on, let's get out of bed and explore the city some more."
"For what? Our mission is done. Let's just get home." She just wanted to be alone, but Satoru wouldn't let her. He was committed to making her smile again.
"Our flight back is only in 3 days, so let us go shopping. Don't you want that dress you saw the day we arrived?"
"It's a wonderful dress, but too expensive for me."
"So you don't want it?"
She signaled "no" with her head.
Pointing at a bag by the entrance, Satoru asked "So shall I return it?"
With big, shiny eyes (Y/N) looked at the bag and back to the sorcerer. "No, you didn't..."
Seeing how Satoru's smile got bigger, she jumped out of bed and looked inside the bag, surprised to see the dress she saw in the store window.
"Wow. I don't even know where to wear such a fancy dress."
"Oh, I know. I have a reservation for later at a nice restaurant. But before that, we have to buy you some shoes to go along with the dress, and a purse of course."
"So you planned a date for the whole day without even asking me out first?"
"It's only a date if you want it to be my dear." He said softly while exiting her room.
And this ends our trip to Switzerland. It was so hard to come back again to write this, but finally, it's done.
Now, I was planning to cover the goodwill event before ending this first part of my story, but since I took so long to write this part, I'll need to rewatch the anime or read the manga to get inspired again. I could leave that out though and go straight to the end. I think I could end this in 2 or 3 more chapters if leaving out the goodwill event. I haven't decided yet what I'll do...
