"BREAKING NEWS!!! Hyujin Seong Soo was killed during their celebration in the Seong Soo mansion. Suspects remain unknown in the massacre that claimed the lives of 27 individuals that were present." Toji sat as the TV was set at a high volume.
"Look, June. We're famous." Toji said in a sarcastic tone his eyes shifting to June, who stood at the passage.
Toji raised his eyebrows to June's expression. "Huh? Did I make you upset kid?"
June's eyes gazed at the news that was currently on the TV. "Yeah, am just not comfortable with the news... "
"Meaning?"
"Kind of disturbing..."
Silence fell in the room, growing louder with each passing second. Toji readjusts his seating position.
" Sorry about that kiddo... but that's my job and when it comes down to it, I won't hesitate to take this grim decision."
June's eyes grew frustrated. "Is this how the society of Jujutsu works? Killing and killing and more killing?" June said, his voice low in a curious and frustrated tone.
"I mean... Yeah, that's how it is. I assume the concept of Jujutsu is negativity and also the idea of give and take... Nothing goes for nothing." Toji's voice was laced with seriousness.
June sat opposite Toji, his purple orbs for eyes, narrowed at the simplicity of Toji's speech. "Well, I hate that Idea...
... Toji, I have a question." June's face morphs into a thoughtful expression. "Do you hate the Zenin? I know it sounds obvious, but I'd like to know."
Toji picked up the remote to turn off the channel, he placed his attention on June. "June. I hope that can see my son." June couldn't help but show a surprised expression on his face. "Yeah, I fucking hate the Zenin... Those pieces of shit, are quick to despise their own when they don't possess a cursed technique. Let alone be an outsider of the jujutsu big three families."
Toji sighed. " I don't care how they turn out... But I regret one thing... Two things." June sat up, seemingly relating to Toji's frustration.
"Being born into the Zenin clan and not being there for him... Megumi, my son." June sat as he bowed his head.
"Your son, where is he?"
" I don't know, but I guess that he's with Satoru Gojo."
"Why don't you go see him?"
"I doubt he wants to meet me, the person who sold their son to the Zenin cause of his ten-shadow technique... I am miserable."
June couldn't hold his disgust after hearing what Toji said. "That's horrible..."
"Yeah I know"
June related to Toji when it comes to background and clan affairs. His mother supposed to be the clan head died a mysterious death. Not even being able to manifest the clan's technique that has been passed down for generations... He hasn't improved, but the revelation of him being the wielder of the false six eyes opened a gateway to new possibilities.
He knew what he wanted. He's a normal boy who is thrown into the world of Jujutsu sorcery.
Then it struck him. The memory of his mom, her smiling lips dented into his mind as she spoke.
"I hate this world. I hate Jujutsu, I hate killing curses on and on...
But... That will all change when I become the leader of the Gojo clan. I'll change the world of Jujutsu society.
June's eyes brighten in realization. 'That's it. This world is rotten of selfish individuals... Why not go for the source of the problems? Why not?
"You asked me what I hated the most..." Toji who was in a thought snapped back to reality, his eyes shifted to June as he continued speaking. "I hate the current Jujutsu society. I'll change it by any means possible."
Toji saw the determined gleam in his eyes. "But I have to get stronger to do that. That's why I'll go back to Japan and join the Jujutsu tech."
Toji crossed his legs in a calm and relaxed manner. "Well look at you, already making decisions. But that's where we differ kid. We might be similar when it comes to backgrounds of our childhood... but you see I don't give a crap about changing Jujutsu society. As long as I have the cash, am good to go."
June tilted his head. "At the end, someone is going to do it."
"Hmmmmm I suppose you're right."

The night is cold as always, the air hovering around the nose of each individual who roamed the streets of Korea. " Hold up, this ramen slaps." The voice of June dragged the attention of everyone at the store, but Toji paid no mind to the intense stare from people.
Slurp!
" I suppose you're right. June this is the third bowl and I ain't paying for the extra two you bought." Toji spoke, his arms crossed.
" You borrowed 40 won from me the other day. Wait a second, where is the cash we were paid for the last job?" June spoke in a loud volume.
"Fuuk off"
"Hey, I got my share in it"
"You live in my house, you brat."
Suddenly laughter could be heard in the shop as some people chuckled at their antics...
Until suddenly.
Boom!!!
A dagger flew towards Toji in a fast motion. But Toji counters with a quick flick of his chopsticks, to sever the pace of the flying object.
But the assault wasn't over. One of the chefs pulled out a gun, followed by the other employees, aiming at Toji and June. With a quick motion, Toji flipped the table to the side, facing the employees who didn't hesitate to shoot.
Bang, bang, bang!!!
The gun alerted the rest customers, who already run away in panic. The table acting as a shield gave Toji a moment to process his thoughts, which were.
' I swore I paid those Yakuza my debts... Although, I killed most of their boss men.' Toji had a cloud of bubbles by his head as June snapped him back to reality.
"It's 30 seconds since they started shooting their guns. Telling from the weapons, we can conclude that these are ordinary people, probably paid off."
Toji replied with a. "Hmmmm. Paid you say?" Toji took a fork and he threw it behind him, killing a man who entered the store with a gun.
Slit!!!
Toji split the table in half with his brute strength, chucking the left side to the employees in the direction, but the left did not hesitate to keep shooting at Toji and June.
June grabbed a chair, tossing it towards the chef of the store. Crash!!! It collided with the middle-aged man, June redirected his gaze behind him sensing the build-up of cursed energy.
Toji noticed the boy's uneasiness as he glanced at his face. Toji traced June's eyes behind him to see him staring at nothing through the glass.
Toji knew that he could sense the change in air even to a small difference. But seeing June tense up was something he did not understand. Ashura told him the boy was similar to Gojo Satoru... That was until the older male felt the change in atmosphere...
... For about a good 3 seconds, to witnessed the sudden earthquake but it wasn't natural, instead, it was a stampede of civilians running towards the store like a zombie, like they were dolls. The blank expression on their faces made Toji raise his eyebrow.
June spoke as the crowd grew larger, even people from the traffic came down from their vehicles to join the run for seemingly no reason. " It seems like they're been controlled," June said with anxiety about his facial features.
"Yeah, looks like it. Through the back door, we go." Toji gestured toward the door behind them. But as they made it through the door, the crowd collided with the glass of the store. Blood was painted all over the glass during the impact of some of the crowd, but some of them continued on their pursuit, running after Toji and June.
Boom!!
The door leading to the rooftop came down as a result of Toji knocking it with a kick. "Hey, they're at the rooftop of the other building."
"Are they curse users?"
Zoom!!!
A sniper bullet struck the ground while Toji leaned to the side dodging the projectile with no difficulty. "That was close. So they're using snipers, huh?"
Little did the two males notice the bullet that struck the ground continued its traveling under the building curving towards its previously missed target.
June traced the cursed energy with his eyes of Anubis to the opposite building. The cursed energy was so condensed that it could burst at any moment. "It's coming, Toji!!"
This time Toji instinctively smashed the ground underneath them, using it as a shield to block the upcoming attack they still don't know about.
Boom!! Another bullet with immense speed came through, destroying the shield of the oulder that Toji used as protection. Toji leaned again, barely dodging the bullet. He glanced at June, signaling him to make a move that could at least get them out of this situation.
"Just like we practiced"
"Yeah..." June replied to Toji. "Wait... What practice?"
"Look out!!" Toji screamed, alerting June who's eyes grew wide open. The bullet previously shot before, had fully made a curve back to them.
Even though June sensed the bullet imbued with cursed energy, It was too fast for him to react to, even his eyes blurred the object coated with cursed energy.
Toji slapped the bullet from its speeding course, with his left hand, redirecting it to another area code. "Shiit..." Toji couldn't help but complain about his injured hand. "Look if you're gonna be this useless then I might just take up on you leaving to go to Jujutsu High."
June knew what Toji meant was true, that was until he heard a voice coming from above. A young man, about in his mid-twenties, can be seen laughing as he soared through the sky.
June stared at him seeing the cursed energy around the new character that joined their fight or was the one attacking them. 'He has the same cursed energy signature as the ones coating the bullet, it explains the sniper.'
"Ooooh Look, Japanese folks in Korea. I don't know, but it looks suspicious to me." He said with a mischievous glee in his eyes as he landed on the ground. Moving so fast that he closed the distance between himself and Toji, with a gun in his hand and a sniper strapped to his back.
"Don't even think about it" The young man said with the gun pointed to Toji's head. June had nothing but a smile on his face as he knew.
... That was Toji's afterimage.
Toji appeared behind him with malicious intent, grabbing the young man by the collar, ready to discombobulate his face with his fist.
"What the heck? This guy is crazy fast." June used the property of blue to attract the metal gun from his grasp.
"I got it!" June said but noticed the rambling on the floor below them. Looking through the hole Toji made to protect them from the gunfire's rage, were people with blank expressions on their faces, running through the stairwell, making their way to the rooftop.
Bursting through the door, they created a wall between Toji and the crazed guy who previously owned guns. "Ha, I don't know you but you move very well, luckily for me I won't lose 'cause now I have distance from you two."
The young man raised his gun to aim at Toji's head, who had nothing but a grin on his face, Zoom!!! Again Toji closed the distance between him and the young man, overwhelming him with rapid speed.
"Yet again... I win, you idiot. Remember the name; Bang soon!!, ya idiot."
Toji sensed the approaching object, moving at the speed of a normal bullet but this time it was rather slow...
Toji proceeded to make away from the attacker, but the young man held him. "Shit!!!" Toji expressed his bitterness at the moment, though he knew he could make himself free from the grasp of this unknown individual, but the time...
A moving bullet... but instead the bullet came at 700 feet per second. With this, Tothei concluded that this man could alter the motion of objects, which is why he could manipulate the speed of the bullet, although he has used this technique on a particular object too many times it lost its velocity which is 2,700 feet per second.
Toji already formulating his thoughts since the beginning of the onslaught, The bullet already at the face of Toji was drawn back by an unknown force...
June attracted the bullet with the attractive property of Blue, just in time before it made contact with Toji's face.
"Huh? What the heck was that just n--" Bang soon was not given the privilege to finish his stuttering, when Toji knocked him out cold with his knuckles. June scanned the destroyed rooftop, seeing a horde of civilians falling from the roof of the building.
Toji held Bang Soon unconscious body with ease, looking over to June. While Toji was disturbed by the unnatural movements of the humans that roamed around mindlessly, a horde came at a surprising speed and took away Bang Soon from Toki's grasp.
"Ahhh... Shit. I lost him."
June walked towards Toji, looking from side to side for any threats. "That was something. Seems like we're being targeted by sorcerers and from the looks of it they're skilled."
"..."
" By the way, why did you let him escape?"
"I don't know June, why are useless as a hedgehog in a condom factory?" Toji retorted with a look of indifference on his face.
"Look I know... I mean you could handle everyone with ease."
Toji's face softens. "I may be wrong about you being useful. You prevented me from getting shot in the head... I'd prefer the term; Not useful enough."
June looked up to Toji with a blank face. " So what are we gonna do now? We're probably being marked by sorcerers from the union Hyujin made to attempt to kill us, which is not very helpful in our current state."
"So they caught on to us huh?"
"Must be from my cursed energy signature... Sorry about that." June rubbed the back of his head awkwardly.
"We're going back to Japan"
"Wait, what?"
