CHAPTER 14: ZENIN CLAN SUMMONS
The letter arrived three weeks after Tonji started at Jujutsu High.Formal. Expensive paper. Sealed with the Zenin clan crest.Tonji stared at it like it might explode."You gonna open it?" Maki asked. They were in the training yard, taking a water break."Do I have to?""Probably should. The Zenin clan doesn't send letters for fun."Tonji opened it. Read. His hands started shaking."What does it say?" Hana appeared, worried. She'd been practicing barriers nearby."They're summoning me. For 'evaluation and placement within the clan structure.' Three days from now."Maki's expression darkened. "Bastards.""Can I refuse?""Legally? Yes. Practically? They'll make your life hell if you do." Maki took the letter and read it. "This is Naobito's handwriting. The clan head himself. They're taking you seriously.""Is that good or bad?""Both. Good because they won't kill you outright. Bad because they want to use you."Hana grabbed Tonji's arm. "Don't go. It's obviously a trap.""If I don't go
CHAPTER 13: THE SHOPPING MALL CURSE
The shopping mall looked normal from the outside.People walked in and out, carrying bags. Talking on phones. Living their normal lives. They had no idea a curse lived inside.Tonji stood with his team: Itadori, Fushiguro, Kugisaki, and Maki. Gojo supervised from a distance, leaning against a wall with his hands in his pockets."The curse is Grade 3," Gojo explained. "Born from consumer greed and shopping addiction. It hides in the clearance section. Attacks people who are alone.""How many victims?" Maki asked."Three missing in the last week. All found later with their wallets empty. Traumatized. Don't remember what happened.""So it steals money?""And memories. It feeds on the shame of overspending." Gojo looked at Tonji. "This is your show, new guy. You're team leader.""What? Why me?""Because you need practice making decisions under pressure. Your team will follow your orders. Don't get them killed."Tonji's stomach dropped. "That's a lot of pressure.""Welcome to being a sorce
CHAPTER 12: FIRST DAY TRAINING
Five AM came too fast.Tonji dragged himself out of bed, every muscle screaming from yesterday's sparring with Maki. He threw on training clothes and stumbled outside.The training field was already full.Maki stood at the center, looking fresh and alert. Around her were Itadori, Fushiguro, Kugisaki, Panda, and two other students Tonji didn't know."You're late," Maki said.Tonji checked his phone. "It's 4:59.""Early is before time. On time is late. Late is unacceptable. Twenty push-ups.""Are you serious?""Forty now. Want to make it sixty?"Tonji dropped and did forty push-ups. The other students watched with varying levels of sympathy."Rough," Itadori whispered. "She's like this every morning.""Why are you all here?" Tonji asked between push-ups."Mixed training," Panda explained. "We train together sometimes. Gojo-sensei's idea. Says we learn better as a group."Tonji finished the push-ups and stood. Maki nodded."Today we're doing combat drills. You'll spar with each person he
CHAPTER 11: WELCOME TO JUJUTSU HIGH
The gates of Tokyo Jujutsu High looked like something from a temple.Tonji stood at the entrance with Hana, both of them carrying their entire lives in two duffel bags. Mom had cried when they left. Happy crying, she said. But her hands shook anyway."This place is huge," Hana whispered.She wasn't wrong. The school sat on a mountain, surrounded by forest. Traditional buildings mixed with modern structures. Barrier techniques shimmered in the air. Tonji could see them through his father's ring."You must be the Zenin kids."A large panda walked toward them. An actual panda. Walking on two legs. Talking.Tonji blinked. "What the hell?""Language," the panda said cheerfully. "I'm Panda. Second-year student. Yes, I'm a cursed corpse. Yes, I can talk. No, I don't eat bamboo. Any other questions?""So many questions," Tonji muttered.Hana elbowed him. "Hi, Panda. I'm Hana. This is my brother Tonji. Thank you for meeting us.""No problem! Principal Yaga asked me to show you around." Panda s
CHAPTER 10: THE SIBLING PACT
Three weeks and seventeen curse kills later, Tonji came home to find Hana crying.Not sad crying. Terrified crying.She sat on the couch, knees pulled to her chest, sobbing into her hands. Mom tried to comfort her but Hana just shook her head."What happened?" Tonji dropped his training bag and rushed over.Hana looked up. Her eyes were red and swollen. "A curse followed me home. A big one. It was outside our building. Waiting."Tonji's blood went cold. "Where is it now?""I ran. It didn't chase me. Just watched. Like it was studying me.""What did it look like?""Like... like loneliness made solid. Pale. Empty eyes. It reached for me but didn't touch. Just whispered things."Tonji grabbed his blessed knife. "I'll handle it.""No!" Hana grabbed his arm. "It's not like the other curses. This one felt different. Stronger. Smarter.""All the more reason to kill it now before it gets worse."Mom stood up. "Both of you stop. We need to call that sorcerer. Nanami. Let him handle this.""He'
CHAPTER 9: TONJI'S RESOLVE
Tonji trained like his life depended on it.Because it did.Every morning, 5 AM. Nanami pushed him harder than before. Running. Weights. Combat drills. Weapon practice. Strategy lessons.Every evening, more training. Different location every time. Making him hard to track.Tonji's body adapted. Got stronger. Faster. More precise.After two weeks of intensive training, he could fight for an hour straight without getting exhausted. Could dodge attacks he couldn't see coming. Could strike weak points with accuracy."Better," Nanami said during a sparring session. "But not good enough.""What am I missing?""Killing intent. You hold back. Every strike, every movement. You're fighting not to hurt, when you should be fighting to end the threat immediately.""I don't want to be a killer.""Curses don't care what you want. They exist to harm humans. Hesitation gets you killed." Nanami struck fast. Tonji barely blocked. "Again. This time, mean it."Tonji attacked. Staff whistling through air.
