RED STRINGS | ITADORI YUJI X FEM!READER

"Gojo saturo is not guiding you properly"

"As expected of him because he also  kept the vessel's life status secret too"

"Are you going against us? The people who made you capable of using your curse technique"

You stood in the center of the semi circle of doors, the light falling over your form. The elders keep on expressing their disappointment. It wasn't a big issue. In your previous mission, you didn't absorbed the curse you exorcised. Your refusal of absorption of curse spirit is an act of rebellion to the higher ups. Perhaps you're being rebellious due to influence of your teacher's words. 

Your eyes staring ahead, not downcasted like usual. Your lips pressed into a thin line and gaze unwavering ,the blank expression maintained on your face. However the rapid beating of your heart and the fear making your stomach churn. It's pretty difficult for you to speak up for yourself especially to higher ups. 

"I already have enough curses in my possession. Nothing would go wrong if I didn't absorb one earlier" You said, your fists behind your back clenching. The red strings getting tighter due to the cursed energy produced from your negative emotions. From past these , the strings were at rest , as if you was a normal sorcerer. 

"Your opinion  doesn't matter. You're supposed to do as said. If you're not under us doesn't mean you'll defy us "

 " We're here to guide you. Your purpose is to exorcise, absorb and manipulate . This world is full of deceit and only strong survives by themselves and their role is to protect the weak and determine their survival. Be thankful we've made you capable of survival. You know nothing about this world [Y/N] Geto" 

                                                                                        ~

The White haired man exhaled after a spar, sitting down ,across you on the tatami sheets. You wipe the sweat off your face. It has been a hectic training session to attempt to manipulate the strongest's curse energy. As expected you failed. You couldn't get to the core of his cursed energy so manipulating is way too far away. 

"You know...this manipulation of both curses and cursed energy is pretty useful. Controlling them according to your wishes" He said chuckling and added " but those red strings are obstacle in the way of your potential" . You tilt your head wondering why he suddenly began speaking about this. 

"Those strings are merely of a puppet being controlled who's fooled into believing her abilities are destructive. Only if you gained control not only over your cursed energy but also  your life, you'll no longer be tied by those strings.You know nothing about this world [Y/N]"

                                                                                      ~

"If an instance like this occurs once again, the deal between us is closed" You tensed up at their warning. They wasn't lying, the venomous tone says it all. You've only continued on this path just to confront your elder brother. When he's caught, he shall not be executed as a price for your duty as a sorcerer. 

However there's a sense of uncertainty building up in you, what're you even gonna do when you meet suguru? Is it worth it? Was all the years you spent working were actually for a right choice? 

You turned your back on them and walked out without a word.
