Naoya leans against the wall next to the door and crosses his arms. "Ya finally declaring the next head?" They are all seated in what Naobito likes to refer to as the meeting room, though Naoya opts to stand instead. It's best to not sit around his family when they are all gathered like this. Tensions tend to run high, and someone always needs their ass handed to them.
Naobito shakes his head and takes a sip of his sake. "No. This is concerning the Gojo clan."
Naoya keeps his face blank. "Is Gojo Satoru dead?" He hopes that bastard is dead and then he will take his place as the strongest. The Gojo clan is useless without Gojo Satoru, and it is time for the Zenin clan to rise.
"No," Naobito replies. "Gojo Satoru is very much alive. He has sired a son."
And why should he care about that? Why should he care that Gojo Satoru got his dick wet?
"Another six eyes and limitless user."
Naoya grits his teeth. His body burns. He must have misheard. "What do you mean, another one? There should only be one at a time." It's always been that way for all the clans and their prized techniques. Perhaps his father is going senile with age. Perhaps the Gojo clan is spouting bullshit to make themselves appear stronger than what they are.
Naobito waves a hand and the woman responsible for Maki and Mai rises from her place behind Naobito. She holds up a picture of a child.
Gojo Satoru's child. Looks just like the bastard.
"He is capable of teleporting and creating shikigami out of hair. The shikigami in question was a small version of Gojo Satoru himself and utilized his curse technique. His strength is also concerning for his age. He was noted to have knocked Sukuna's vessel into a wall." Naobito motions with his hand, and the woman switches to a picture of a woman.
Naoya quirks a brow. Whoever this woman is, looks like a good time. "Is this the woman who gave birth to this child?"
"Yes. She was also observed and can make shikigami as well. Higurashi Kagome. She grew up on a shrine and is noted as having foreign energy. Whatever she has is not cursed energy."
Higurashi and not Gojo? Perhaps Gojo Satoru discarded the woman? Naoya grips his chin and tilts his head to the side. "So, he is not married to her?"
Ogi snaps his attention to him. "You'd take Gojo leftovers?"
"She gave birth to another six eyes user and has some foreign energy. Who's to say she can't give birth to a proper ten shadows member?"
"The woman is most likely barren since he did not marry her."
"It's no loss to fuck her and see," Naoya points out. "Besides, she has some shikigami abilities. That's more useful than the females we currently have." And unless they have some other pictures of the brat, he will assume that Higurashi Kagome is not pregnant because it hasn't been that long since she's given birth. Truly, he is surrounded by idiots. They drove Toji to leave the clan simply because he had no cursed energy and yet Toji was stronger than all of them.
When he is clan leader, he will not make such stupid mistakes such as that.
Naobito sighs. "If you wish to pursue her, then I see no harm in doing so. Gojo Satoru may not have married her, but he appears to be fond of her. Going so far as to threaten others on her behalf."
"He can't stop me from pursuing her. I'm not tryin' to hurt her that much." Naoya smiles. "Assuming she is in Tokyo or at the compound?" If she's at the Gojo estate, then that will make things more difficult. He can't barge in there and demand access to her, though he could set up some kind of party to discuss the current events.
But would they bring her to such a meeting? He'd have to send word that all females are required, then.
Naobito shrugs. "The shrine is in Tokyo, but no reports if she is living there or with Gojo or not.
"It would be better to search local shrines instead," Jinichi grunts out. "Perhaps there are others like her."
Idiot. "You can waste your time, but I'm going after the woman confirmed to yield results." Naoya shrugs. "Besides, thought we were rebuilding relations with the Gojo clan? Nothing like having two brothers to unite us." He'll start in Tokyo and go from there. Perhaps he'll get lucky? It can't be too difficult for someone like him.
"Something about going after the leftovers of another man disgusts me," Ogi remarks. "She is tarnished now."
Naoya stares at him. "Jealous that your seeds are useless?"
Ogi glares and swings at him with his sword. Naoya chuckles. "So slow," he jabs. "Waste your time all you want. I'm going after Higurashi Kagome." Naoya punches Ogi in the face and laughs as the man struggles to his feet.
He'll find Higurashi Kagome one way or another and make her his. Gojo Satoru can keep his brat.
Kagome sets her phone down on the table and gets comfortable in the chair while she waits for Satoru. He's so insistent on meeting her for lunch, even though his schedule is so hectic. She wasn't snooping, but he left his phone unlocked on his calendar and the number of missions made her eyes go cross from just a quick glance.
Koushi pats her breast and stares up at her.
"I guess you can eat before daddy gets here," she says with a smile. Kagome places a small blanket over Koushi while he nurses. Normally she doesn't bother with one, but that door opens pretty wide, and it would be awkward if customers walking by see her. "He's running a little late, but it shouldn't be that long," she tells Koushi. Kagome looks over the menu and hums. Satoru told her to order for him too if she didn't feel like waiting.
The door slides open a few minutes later and Kagome looks up and frowns. "Sir, you have the wrong room," she informs the man. He has green hair and brown eyes. His outfit reminds her of what those in the past would wear. Though his energy tells her he is a sorcerer. Perhaps he is part of a clan, then?
The man smiles at her and sits down. "Zenin Naoya," he says, resting his head in his palm. "I have the right room. Higurashi Kagome? Been looking for you for a while now."
Zenin? That sounds familiar. Kagome tightens her hold on Koushi. "What do you want?" She keeps her face blank. The best she can do is put up a barrier until Satoru gets here and if this man does get rowdy, then she could try making a shikigami to distract him or potentially take him out, depending on how strong this sorcerer is.
"You." He leans over and presses the button for the server. "This is a nice restaurant. Have you been here before?" He reaches for the menu. "I'll get us…well, I'll get myself some beef. You should stick to a salad." He leers at her. "As nice as your tits are, you need to lose weight. A proper woman keeps her body slim. We'll work on it. I'll fuck the pounds off ya."
Kagome's cheeks burn. Her energy shimmers under her skin, threatening to boil over. "You need to leave." The only thing straying her hand is Koushi attached to her. Her fingers twitch. She just wants to slap him one good time.
He snorts. "We have lots of work to do." The door opens, and he turns right as Satoru appears behind the server.
"We aren't ready to order," Satoru says. The server looks at him and at Zenin before scurrying away. Satoru closes the door and towers over Zenin.
"Ah Satoru, I was—"
Crash.
Kagome blinks. She didn't even see Satoru move. Zenin lies on the floor and retches. Satoru walks over and lifts Zenin up by his shirt. They warp away and Kagome stares at the small stain of blood on the floor. She places the blanket off to the side and fixes her top while Koushi looks around. The door slides open and Satoru walks in. He glares at the chair and moves it over to the corner, opting to grab a different chair instead.
"Satoru?" Kagome wets her lips. She can't see his eyes because of the blindfold, but she doesn't need to see them to know how upset he is.
"Did he touch you?"
"No." She shakes her head. There's blood on his hands and jacket. Kagome reaches over and pulls out some wipes. She slides them over to him. "Did you kill him?"
"Do you want me to?" Satoru wipes his hands off and then pulls the blindfold down. "Sorry, I'm not trying to scare you."
"I'm not scared."
"…You're not? You don't think I'm a monster?"
Kagome flushes and looks away from him. "No, I like it. Though I don't think he needs to die because he was rude." Kagome peeks at him and her body warms. "Satoru, don't look at me like that." The way he looks at her sometimes nearly convinces her that Satoru simply wants her, and not because he's horny.
"I can't help it." He grabs the used wipes and stands. "I'm going to wash my hands for real." Satoru pauses. "He won't bother you again. The Zenins are bad news except for Maki, but she's my student. And you don't need to lose weight. I love your curves."
Kagome tucks her hair back. "I'm not as skinny as I was when we met." Zenin's words did sting. She hasn't been super proactive with working out since she's had Koushi.
"So? Your body is like that because of me." He smirks at her. "I can do it again." He wiggles his eyebrows.
"Go wash your hands, Satoru." Kagome huffs, trying not to laugh. He throws her one more look before exiting the room. Kagome fans herself. Satoru is getting to her. It's only been a few days since she and Koushi went to the school and showed off some and strangely enough, Satoru's affections haven't changed.
No, that's not true. He's definitely touchier now. Maybe she didn't do enough?
The door slides open again and this time Satoru holds out his hands for Koushi. He frowns and slides his jacket off, placing it on the back of the chair, and then reaches for Koushi again. "I'm just glad you didn't have to see that," Satoru says. "Don't want Koushi seeing me like that."
Kagome nods. Koushi is just a baby, no matter how powerful he may be for his age. "Will you be home late tonight?"
Satoru winces. "Yeah, my schedule is usually jam-packed. Especially with the aftermath of Halloween. It would have been a lot worse without you. Still, a lot of curses were born that day from the terror." He boops Koushi on the nose and smiles. "Ready to order?"
Kagome reaches for the menu again. She'd forgotten all about ordering. "I'm just going to get some sushi. Did you want us to come with you?" Koushi turns his head and looks at her. Kagome blinks. "Or Koushi can hang out with his grandfather instead. He mentioned wanting to see Koushi again," she rambles.
"You want to go on missions with me?" Satoru asks. "How often does he need to eat? If we leave him with my father?"
"Well, he just ate, so in three or four hours. But I picked up a pump yesterday…." Kagome presses her lips together. Satoru is staring at her breasts. "Satoru."
"Hm? I'm listening. You pumped, and I didn't get to see." Satoru reaches over and presses the button for the server to return. "Did you drive?"
"No, we walked since it wasn't far."
Satoru nods. "Okay, that's fine. I'll tell him to just meet us at the apartment. He should be there by the time we get done eating." Satoru pulls out his phone and texts with one hand.
"…I didn't think you would agree so easily," she admits.
Satoru snorts. "I've been trying to get you alone since we've reconnected." He turns his attention to the server and gives them their order. "If you see anywhere you want to stop at while we're out, just let me know." Satoru eyes her chest again and then looks at her. "Are you going to need to pump while we're out?"
"Depends on how long I'm out with you. Maybe. I'd rather not leak."
"I wish you would leak on my face," he says. "Or on my d—"
"Satoru!"
"He doesn't even know what we're saying." Satoru laughs. Koushi slaps his mouth and Satoru stops mid-laugh. "So, is that how it's going to be?"
Koushi slaps him again.
Kagome covers her mouth, but her laughter spills out. Satoru and Koushi look at her. She wipes at her eyes. "Sorry, I didn't mean to laugh," she says.
"I love yo—" Slap.
Satoru huffs. "Thanks, Koushi. Truly."
A/N: I am coping.
"Does blessing it mean no curses will respawn for a set period of time?" - Curses will definitely avoid the area kind of like how they did at the station when Satoru fought the disaster curses.
"Can Koushi imitate her purification chanting?" - Now I'm imagining babbling as he does and accidentally placing a curse on someone lol.
"Who in the multiverse would be into roleplay?" How to tame is pretty adventurous and would be up for it later. Accidental and Christmas aren't there yet, but Christmas would probably roleplay as Santa. Twisted would probably play up the student-teacher angle because it bothers Kagome. Thousand Days would be up for it after they get their stuff together. Wish I Could is more likely to roleplay big bad sorcerers chasing the priestess in the woods. And One night Satoru would probably role play as being submissive sometimes.
"How long before someone notices Koushi and Kagome could get past Satoru's infinity?" - I think they can keep that up forever so long as they don't call it out. To everyone else, Satoru is letting it down for them.
"Does she think of the locket when she fiddles with her rose pendant?" - She thinks of the other Satoru and the kind of relationship he has with that Kagome. She wants that but she's still waiting for the other shoe to drop.
"Will Hojo attend the party?" - Why you want him to die in this story too lolol
Satoru will meet InuYasha and that's all I'll say about that lol.
Next chapter Kagome will find out that uh Satoru is not at all put off by her displays of power.
Take care! Hope you have an amazing rest of your week. Take your vitamins and make sure to refill your well. I'm gonna get back to working on that Wish I Could Chapter, Kenjaku is scheming as usual.
