Chapter 30: Preventing A Kidnapping
...
"Huuuuuuh, I'm sure it would be enough safer to head back to the school." Gojo complained.
"Give me that." Kakashi said as he took the phone from Gojo.
"Hey, give me back." However Geto held back Gojo as Kakashi listened to what Yaga said.
"That would be the safest option, but Master Tengen ordered to fulfill all of Riko's demands." Yaga said as he hung up
Kakashi tossed the phone to Gojo, who in turn caught it.
He groaned as he kicked the lake.
"Lax upbringing at its finest." Gojo said as he got up.
"Funny, I thought it was you." Kakashi said as he put his hand in the air. "You're insulting the person who brought her up when she's right in front of you."
Gojo wasn't bothered in the slightest, he looked into the sky with his glasses on.
"Two of you should cut it out, despite what she thinks she'll live in the deepest floor of Jujutsu Tech as Tengen-"
"Or if we fail the mission her new home will be heaven." Kakashi chimed in.
Kuroi sighed, her depression evident on her face.
"Riko's parents died in an accident, I've been taking care of her ever since and I want her to spend as much time as she needs with people she finds precious." Kuroi said.
'If Gojo wasn't in this world I would have mistaken her for the protagonist with that kind of backstory.' Kakashi thought as he heard Riko's history.
"In that case, you're her family." Geto said as he smiled.
"Y-yes, I guess I am." Kuroi smiled.
"Whatever she does, her happiness rests in your hand so make sure she enjoys these precious moments with you." Kakashi said with a smile on his face.
'Encouragement is the least I can do If I can't prevent them from becoming dead bodies.' Kakashi thought, his nonchalant expression replaced by a fake smile.
"Th-thank you." Kuroi stuttered.
"Suguru, how are the cursed spirits you sent to watch over them." Gojo asked as he walked over to Geto.
"They're fine, I just wish I was able to share senses with them but if anything happens they'll report to me." He said.
Suddenly his expression darkened, really darkened like they killed someone close to him.
"...Satoru." He said as he began walking towards the school building.
"Go find Riko, now!" His movements became more like one of a super-hero from avengers. "Two of the curses... they've been exorcised."
Kakashi hearing the cue followed Geto.
Somewhere else...
"I see. So they're finally taking action..." Toji said as he ate watching a race.
Riko's school
"Where is she?" Geto asked as they all ran through the halls of the school.
"She has music now, she's probably in the music room or the chapel." Kuroi said to the group as they ran.
"Chapel?" Gojo questioned.
"It's common for missionary schools to have chapels." Kuroi explained.
"Satoru you go to the chapel, Kuroi and Kakashi head over to the music room. I'll take care of the two unknowns." Geto ordered.
No words were spoken as Geto split from the group, Kuroi directed Gojo to the chapel before they split up.
Geto head deeper into the hallway, going to the exact same place as where his cursed spirits where exorcised.
Instead of seeing multiple people he only saw one person; an old man who seemed to have lived a long life.
"Jujutsu Sorcerer." He said.
"Sorry I'm not really in the mood to talk." Geto said.
From his back a black portal materialized and in a flash a grotesque large 10 m worm with horrifyingly sharp and long canines came out it's body resembling a taco except inside was green.
"Gaah!" The old man shouted as he was engulfed in it.
The worm stopped expanding, Geto recalled it, going back into the world of nothing.
SSSHHH
The sound of glass breaking echoed through the hall as the old man burst through it with a knife.
"Not surprising." Geto muttered as he cocked his fists.
The old man prepared to turn the tables, his opponent thought he had won but now he had the element of surprise.
"Wait?" He said, his landscape changing into one which he cherished.
"Tasuke." He said. "My only friend."
Tears dropped onto the ground as the old man reminisced about his life.
"Oh wait." His eyes opened wide as he realized what happened. "My life is flashing before my eyes."
Geto hit the man's hand hard with his left hand, the old man dropped the knife he was carrying.
BOOM
A loud bang echoed throughout the school as Geto punched the old man, he had hit the wall, leaving a crater where he laid down.
"Those who aren't prepared will always go for the only chance for victory." He walked towards the old man before crouching before him. "Now tell me, are you with Q or the star religious group.."
Kakashi and Kuroi ran to the music room, but surprisingly when they got there it was empty.
"Then she must be in the chapel!" Kuroi exclaimed.
They both ran back, but what they saw was a spectacle.
"That boy, he doesn't learn. When Yaga pounds him on the head I'm worried he doesn't learn." Kakashi said as he watched Gojo run on the roof with Riko carrying her like a suitcase.
"More prey."
Boom!
Kakashi coated his fists with chakra as he attacked bag-head.
The clone fell unconscious, Kakashi looked at the body.
"Bag-head whom Gege did not give a name." Kakashi said to himself as he saw that the blip on the radar was done.
'Now I just need to wait for Gojo to stop giving a lesson to a dead man.' Kakashi thought as he stayed with Kuroi.
Suddenly he felt danger.
Almost immediately he began running through hand-signs, something he hadn't done in quite a long time.
He did it in a flash before dropping both of his hands on the ground.
"Earth Style: Mud Wall jutsu!" A mud wall suddenly appeared on Kuroi's right.
'Damn, I sound like chuunibyou.' Kakashi sighed.
It was one thing to say the name of your technique in front of men but in front of the opposite gender it was like you didn't mind being considered as someone with that japanese disease.
"The hell... What are you doing?" Kuroi asked, surprised at Kakashi's antics.
"It's amazing that you don't know your life is in danger." Kakashi said in surprise.
'No wonder she got kidnapped by non-cursed users.'
Kakashi jumped onto the mud wall, several people were on strategic positions and fired sniper bullets at them.
'I don't have any shurikens.' He thought.
He jumped back down before performing the shadow clone jutsu, the clones proceeded to transform into demon wind shurikens.
"There are hit-men in the buildings on our right trying to kill us." He explained.
He picked the shurikens from the ground carrying the three on his left hand.
"Then wouldn't it be better if we wait for the others so they can deal with it?" Kuroi asked.
"Woman, you're not talking to your ordinary teen." He said with a smirk before going out into the open.
"Number 1"
"Number 2"
"Number 3"
Calling it he threw the shurikens into the air, watching them glide through the air going for the hit-men.
Thanks to his sharp eyes he could tell where they are.
"What the hell?" One of the men asked himself.
"Are they for real."
Someone had just thrown a shuriken at him, the space he stayed in was tight so he would be able to dodge a shuriken, not to talk of the impossibly large one they had just thrown at him.
Dropping the sniper he dropped onto the floor, the gap in the building was above him so the chance that a shuriken would hit him was...
*Poof
"Your skills are lame. Can't even do your job right." A voice came from behind him.
He had closed his eyes and he was unable to notice until the voice spoke that there was someone behind him.
"Maybe in your next life you'll actually learn how to shoot before picking up a gun." The shadow clone said before picking up a knife in this room for close-combat and ending his life.
He didn't have time to scream before he died.
*Poof
As the memories entered Kakashi's mind he could only think of one thing.
'I didn't think they would actually hit.'
