NOVEL NEXT Chapter 11: Ignoring the Gun
"Nanami chan! Nanami chan" Satoru yelled happily as he ran in circles around a bespectacled blonde-haired man.
"Please stop running around me it's embarrassing" The man 'Nanami' replied.
"Ehhh, but I'm just so happy that you're back in action again" Satoru replied still running around in circles around Nanami.
"Sigh, well yes I am sadly back again on the field...… I just have to ask a single question" Nanami asked.
"Hmm?" Satoru hummed as he stopped spinning around Nanami.
"What the hell are kids doing here?" Nanami asked pointing at Gensui and Megumi who were busy looking at the Koi in the pond.
.
It had been a few minutes since Gensui had unbothered open fire on Satoru and since then they had managed to reach the Zenin Manor without any problems other than Gojo Satoru and Gojo Satoru and somehow Megumi and Gensui managed to form a bond over their respective Special grades bullying them...….. quite a ridiculous statement that about 0% people must have muttered over the whole course of Sorcery existing.
"So this one time Gojo san dropped me off a plane because I needed to get used to falling through air Note, I just woke up from sleep a second ago," Megumi said staring at one of the numerous Koi.
"That's crazy...…. Can't be beaten by Yuki doing the same thing except muttering 'You know Jetpack Joyride?' and having to dodge the engine of the plane since the collar of my shirt tore when she was holding me up" Gensui said pointing to one of the Kois.
"Look mine won," He said as one seemed to have crossed over to the other side of a small bridge.
"Damn you... reminds me of the time when I was going through a shikigami ritual and one of it shot out a water blast that tore through a mountain," Megumi said almost as if It was normal for him.
"Seriously? Did you tame it? Show me" Gensui said excitedly.
"No can do, only because Gojo was around I was saved, It's called 'Max Elephant' by the way" Megumi replied. "I still have others" He continued.
"So others cant kill your Shikigami to unlock them huh... how annoying"
"Couldn't agree more"
.
"And why does it feel like they're talking about some really crazy stuff over there?" Nanami asked.
Satoru with his heightened senses from Six eyes could naturally process what was being said just by reading their lips and what they said just gave Nanami a smile and said, "Don't worry, they're just kids, probably talking about their Crush or something"
"Right…" Nanami said looking at the two kids squatting over the pond.
'To me, it looks like my depressed co-workers from work squatting down and sharing their married life with each other for some reason….. nah it couldn't be' Nanami thought and shook his head.
"Oh! If it isn't Nanami Kun! Look who I brought along!" Nanami heard a voice call out to him.
'But if it's these two.... I might be correct' Nanami silently thought and looked behind him and saw a grinning Yuki who brought along Mei Mei!
"Yuki san it's nice to meet you after so long and Mei mei san you too" Nanami let out a small greeting on seeing the woman in front of him.
"Yup, I was kinda sad when you left you know? Such nice potential and went away but it's nice that you came back and went up a grade as soon as you did" Yuki replied with a smile.
"Well I merely came to terms with life is all" Shrugging Naname replied.
"Oh my am I merely just an afterthought?" Mei Mei suddenly asked.
"Nono, It's just that meeting Yuki san is a once in a life opportunity-"
"Cuz she never attends meetings" Satoru suddenly intervened and said.
"....That too," Yuki said seemingly deflated out of life.
"Ah but hasn't she started to make it nowadays?" Another voice called out.
"Ah Kusakabe!" Everyone said.
"So surprising that you decided to talk to me, you usually just talk with the others!" Gojo exclaimed.
"Wow, you're not voiding me this time around?" Yuki said with a surprised expression.
"You actually talked with me without an uncomfortable on your face, so surprising!" Mei Mei muttered with no actual surprise on her face.
"I hope life has been treating you nicely Kusakabe san" Nanami merely replied.
Kusakabe's eyes merely twitched at this, 'A few years back I thought that the World's best duo had been formed but now it's a full proper 4-Koma manga here, Two playful ones, an actual criminal and a emotionless person… damn it I'm the straight man here aren't I?'
"Please don't shoot out rapid-fire questions at me so fast, the only reason why I don't talk with anyone is because I want to stay away from trouble at all costs, the second one steps into Grade 1 they start thinking they're hot shit and start picking fight….. I'm merely avoiding them" Kusakabe replied.
"Then why are you here right now? Go back home!" Satoru said with a smile and raised both of his hands as if in protest...… and was soon joined by Yuki.
"Go back home!"
"Go back home!"
"Go back home!"
"Go back home!"
"Go back home!"
"Go back home!"
Soon the 4 person group started chanting this even Nanami as he had apparently been forced due to peer pressure.
Kusakabe looking at this sighed, 'I wanna go back home'
"I'm only here earlier than usual to meet Nanami" Kusakabe replied.
"Y-You don't care for me anymore Kusakabe?" Satoru asked on the verge of fake tears.
"No"
"Hm?"
"Ah it's nothing like that Gojo san" Kusakabe replied with a friendly smile, forced.
"Hmmm?" Satoru hummed in displeasure and opened his mouth to speak but was quickly interrupted.
"I certainly wasn't expecting Yuki-san to adopt a child though," Mei Mei said drawing the interrogation of Kusakabe to a halt.
"What about me?" Satoru suddenly asked.
"Gojo-kun you're strange so I didn't have any doubts" Mei Mei replied with a smile.
Hearing such a slanderous statement against him Satoru fake spat some blood as he acted as if he was wobbling around and wanted to speak but was once again interrupted, "Besides we had known about Megumi kun around 7 years ago" Kusakabe quipped in.
"Everyone! Stop interrupt-"
"Well, it's not like I adopted him or anything I just went overboard in teaching him since the brat practically begged for knowledge from me, so I could only agree," Yuki said shrugging.
"Really? You trained your previous disciple for a year, I thought that this time around you finally revealed your secret love child or something" Mei Mei said with a strange smile.
"Haha, You mean his blonde hair? He's half-American.... But you probably know that already, besides mine are dyed anyways" Yuki said raising an eyebrow at Mei Mei.
"Ah is that so, seeing his talent I thought he was yours, but now I guess….." Mei Mei trailed off muttering something that Yuki managed to catch.
"Ah don't worry, he's still under my protection, I hope you gauged him properly in his exam a few days ago like I asked," Yuki said shutting down Mei Mei's muttering.
.
[AN- As for her muttering... one would have to go look up Mei Mei's most famous scene]
.
"Yup, he'll get Grade 2 the second he joins Jujutsu High" She replied shocking everyone present excluding Gojo Satoru.
But before they could say anything to this they were all interrupted.
.
"DO THEY TAKE THIS PLACE AS A DAYCARE CENTRE?" A booming voice was heard.
Almost everyone could recognize this voice,
The Current Leader of the Zenin Clan, the Strongest of all Special Grade Ones, The owner of one of the strongest techniques currently, Naobito Zenin.
.
"Everyone! Get your ass into the Meeting hall!" He once again yelled out.
"You can't be serious, half of us aren't even here," A Grade 1 away from the Special Grades said calling out the Clan leader and pointing out the missing 10 Grade 1s.
"That's the fun part," Naobito said slightly smiling making everyone frown while some seemed to deflate as if knowing what was to come.
"They're all dead"

[Anyway don't take the Grade 1's being dead to heart, it's a future plot line, I have seen some people bitch about this in other fanfic's so I'll be upfront about this now.
The number of Grade 1's was at my discretion, they're just supposed to be very op so I went with 20, which seems reasonable, they're 10 now so even more reasonable :))))]
