Sacrifice

The ear-piercing scream put a jolting stop to the student's bullying. The classroom soon fell quiet and then it was broken by another ear-deafening cry. And it didn't end there as well. More and more screams could be heard until it was soon overshadowed by the ringing of the schools' alarms. 

"THIS IS THE DIRECTOR OF SUGISAWA MUNINCIPIAL HIGH SCHOOL. A CURSED SPIRIT IS CONFIRMED TO HAVE BROKEN IN SO THE EMERGENCY LOCKDOWN PROCEDURES ARE TO BE FOLLOWED!"

The schools' doors and windows are immediately anchored down and blocked by a wall of steel sheets. The students all break into a panic and quickly flock to the corner of the classroom.

"LET US OUT" "I DONT WANNA DIE HERE YET" "I WILL BEAT THE SPIRIT TO A PULP" "I STILL HAVEN'T GOTTEN A GIRLFRIEND YET" "I NEVER APOLOGIZED TO MY PARENTS" "I MISS MY MOM".

The sounds of regret, anguish, false confidence, and fear quickly fill the room until the teacher quickly gets ahold of the situation.

"These steel sheets are 3 inches thick and are constantly reinforced by a wave of cursed energy, Grade 2 and below curses can't break through them so we all should be perfectly sa-"

Before even finishing his lines the teacher's body is pierced by a volley of black-coloured swords that rip apart walls and cursed energy alike. The culprit is then revealed to be the man with surgery stitches across his forehead.

Akumu looks at the teacher and then the figure in horror. He was so stricken with fear his body even refused to move. Then one of the students cried,

"Hey, Saigo-senpai? You were a Jujutsu High Prospect student right?!? Please save us we are sorry for all that we did it was just us joking"

Even after all the bullying, these people did the only true friend Akumu had in this school was Dojima so to see all these people begging for help made the fear that took his heart to settle and be replaced with only disgust for the scum that stood before him. But that was quickly taken down by the sounds of flesh being torn through as one by one blades of darkness and light began to rip apart the students in front of him. Very quickly Akumus' heart began to drown back into that well of despair. The very same darkness that took his heart similarly to the day his parents died.

As if snapping Akumu out of that cycle however a large rock enhanced with cursed energy was immediately pelted at the head of this stitch-headed sorcerer which he calmly catches. Out of the darkness and blood that plagued the school, Dojima had come to defeat the evil.

"Looking at how much damage you have caused to the school already it would be safe to say that you are at least semi grade 1 or above..", Dojima said reluctantly.

The stitch-faced sorcerer replied with a smug expression "A good assumption based on recent events. Your enhancement isn't that bad and your energy control is passable at best. You should at least be a grade 3 yet for some reason you're in a place like this?"

Thinking about it now Akumu always found it strange how despite Dojima being way stronger than him, he was still attending a normal school however he was snapped out of his thoughts.

"SAIGO AKUMU YOU STILL WANT TO LIVE RIGHT? DO YOU WANT TO DIE LIKE YOUR PARENTS TOO?" 

Then emotions of both rage and helplessness took over the despairing Akumu he realized that he was too was as pathetic as his piers. He never desired to try to change himself and always thought that the world was unfair since the day his parents died. But now a new resolution began to grow in his heart and that was the desire to live.

Hastley he got up on his feet and jumped through one of the holes the sorcerer had made in the classroom and quickly escaped.

"Now it's just me and you. When the alarms go off the nearest Jujutsu school is notified and several grade 2 and below sorcerers are immediately sent out. I will buy enough time for them to get here and you will be stopped today!", Dojima said confidently.

The stitch sorcerer looked at him confused and said, "Weren't you just quivering in fear earlier? I'm sure that's the reason you stopped attending Jujutsu High aren't I correct?"

"I may indeed have ran away from that place, but as someone with the ability to fight, I'm going to protect my friend no matter what. If I can't win against you today I'm sure my brother will..", Dojima replied Halfheartedly.

"You may have been a weak-hearted human back then, but your courage now is truly admirable. However, when you estimated my rank of only semi-grade 1 earlier you made an inaccurate assumption" 

Dojima quickly realized that this was an opponent far out of his reach but nonetheless, it was time to fight or die.

The Battle for survival begins!
