--------
The team was staying in a house through Aerobnb to relax after their great battles. So far, they got to do amazing things they wanted to do in Japan. Yuuka came back since Japan is safe and she wants to thank them by showing them around before they leave. Go to onsen, do some sightseeing, buy some anime figurines, go to Arcades. Everything went well so far until Taz brought a doll from Kyoto.
Then strange things go on about. They didn’t understand at first. They thought some of their own teammates play tricks on them until they see writings in Japanese on the wall which is actually scaring them. Yuuka and Oblivion translates it and it disturbs them.
One day, Midoriya came around to visit and see how everyone is doing especially Ink. Ink told him the strange happenings in the house so the green hero is going to help the DBT out. He brought along his friends, Bakugo and Todortoro. So Midoriya walks around the house. For some reason, he senses a perscene but nobody is here. He’s down in the basement and checks a closet. Midoriya sees nothing but floorboards. Nothing here-hm?
He sees a hole in the wall. Hm? He checks it out and suddenly Midoriya heard a door shut behind him. “What the? Ink? Yuuka?” And then he hears a groan. He turns around to see a long hallway. What the? Where did that come from?! Midoriya became confused and ventures down the dark hallway. Is this a quirk? Can’t be? Where’s the user?!
Then he sees glowing orange eyes staring at him and soon the doll emerges making Midoriya widen his eyes. What the?
Then the DBT hears screaming! It’s coming from the basement.
“Deku?! Midoriya!” Ink grabs the handle and proceeds to pull it to open. Rust goes to help and it wouldn’t budge!
“OUT OF THE WAY!” The explosive hero is ready to blast the door off.
“Bakugo, no! You’re going to hurt him if you use your damn quirk!” Navarro argued.
“Got any better ideas?!” Bakugo growled.
“Let me do something.” Shoto freezes the door and then Ink kicks it, breaking the door into pieces. “Midoriya!” Ink sees the green hero and grabs him out of the closet, making him gasp as he is breathing in and out.
“Midoriya! Are you okay?!” Ink asked, kneeling right aside him.
“Deku! The fuck?!” Bakugo shouted.
“Midoriya! What’s wrong?!” Shoto asked.
“The doll was here! There is something behind it! It’s a monster.” Midoriya shaking point at the doll inside the closet. Everyone became disturbed. When did the doll moved? Wasn’t it in the bedroom with Taz.
“What?! The doll was with Taz.” Said Shoto. Then they see the walls had letters craved into them.
‘YOUR SOULS!’
----- Yokohoma -----
“We need holy water, a bible, a freakin exorcism, rosemary, call the Vatican, call the Warrens, call the Winchester brothers and hell call The Mystery Incorporated. Cause there is a godamn Annabella running godamn loose!” Navarro yelled and he pants loudly after saying this to the bewildered Armed Detective Agency.
Then there’s an exasperated sigh is heard from Kunkida Doppo as he pushes his glasses up, hearing the short teen’s demands. “Young man, this is a detective agency, not a paranormal agency. We don’t deal with...demons and spirits. We deal with reality.”
“What?” Navarro stared at Kunkida as if he’s joking. “Did you not heard what I said to you?! You think this is a game?! This isn’t a prank, damnit!”
Kunkida sighed while Dazai chuckles.
“So you’re saying that there’s a ghost in your house? Are you sure it’s not a quirk or ability?” Dazai looks intrigued by this.
“Yes! I’m sure! Deku told us that he saw something down in the freakin basement and he’s the one saying that’s no quirk he never seen before! Plus...we don’t know whose doing it and we’re trying to figure that shit out!”
“Ha! Ghosts aren’t real!” Said Ranpo laughing this off as he eats his snacks at his desk. “Let me check this house out. I assure you, it must be someone with an ability behind this!”
------ Back at the haunted house ----
Little did they know....the moment that Ranpo pulls his glasses on and ‘activates’ his quirk., it reveals something disturbing. He narrows his eyes as he explores the house.
“Ranpo?” Dazai asked as Atsushi looks concerned, never see the expression like that before.
“Hey...did this house belong to someone?” Ranpo asked before looking at the doll before exploring the house.
“Uhh...some guy named Kido Jurou?” Fosh asked. “He got it from the listing and it’s pretty cheap for a big place like this.”
“Please call him because I think something bad happened in this house.” Said Ranpo as he looks at the doll. Atsushi goes off to investigate and sees Taz in the room sitting alone. Atsushi goes to comfort her as he heard that she’s having nightmares.
“We tried that.....when strange things happening....” Fosh begins to speak
“And?”
“Well.....we couldn’t contact him and his phone is dead. And then....we look up where he is and ask around then we found out Kido Juroro died years ago.”
‘Then who gave you the house?” Dazai raised a eyebrow.
“Some guy claiming he’s Kido Jurou. He assumed someone else’s identity.” Said Shdwkyz. “Anyway....you look like you found something found out.”
“Indeed. Something terrible happened in this house.” Ranpo said, tilting his head down as he continues to invesigate. “I can’t explain it and I don’t want to believe it.”
Dazai sighs. “I guess we really do need to call in the experts if this is a haunted house. Lucky for me, I think I know some people....” He chuckles as he got an idea. But the moment he took eyes off Ranpo, There is a scream downstairs.
----- Somewhere in the cafe, Tokyo ------
“So let me understand this. You have a doll that is cursed and you believe the house is haunted because the man who own it died years ago?” A man with brown hair as he wears glasses and is dressed looking between a priest and solider. Next to him, it’s his brother with blue hair and has a tail, carrying a katana sheathed at his waist.
“Yes. The doll is moving by itself and then Taz is starting to act weird, seeing visions, having constant nightmares and acting irrationally we can’t explain ever we took the house.” Taz picked it up from the store.” Said Yuuka as she is with Hellmare regarding this.
“We believe it’s a demonic possession or a curse.” Hellmare asked.
“Well...demons don’t possess things.” Yukio informs them. “They possess living things and the natural forces. Humans, animals, elementals, corpses and plants. Sometimes...they possess the very dust particle in the air. Based on our experience....they use objects as conduits to communicate or do things.” Yukio explains.
“But to do this, we need proof so we can get permission to do exorcise the house first and do something about the doll. Once we do, we have to go through the channels to approve the exorcise and-well...that takes time..”
“How long does that take?” Yuuka asked.
“Roughly...weeks.” Yukio sighed making the girls upset. “But! My brother, Rin would accompany you and will be observing this situation.” He told the girls.
“Leave it to me!” Rin grinned. “Also I think I know a guy who knows about curses.”
Yukio raises an eyebrow. “You do?”
“Sure, he’s a first-year but he has friends who knows more than him!” Rin said.
----- A fast food place ------
“Yo! Itadori!” Rin waves a hand at Yuki Itadori, a student of Jujustu Academy, a school that trains jujustu socerers or curse sorcerers that specializes in dealing with cursed spirits and objects. He’s with two other classmates. Megumi Fushigoro and Kugisaki Nobara.
The True Cross Academy is rivals with Tokyo Jujutsu High since both schools fought evil spirits such as curses and demons and trained their students on how to combat them. Of course, the students from both schools hate each other because of their beliefs and how they do things. But Okumura Rin and Yuji Itadori became fast friends and bonded due to their special circumstances. How they met is they run into each other on a mission that had demons and curses in one sitting which they managed to accomplish when they worked together.
“Hey Rin! What’s up?” Yuji Itadori greets the other with a smile, high-fiving each other before sitting down. Rin goes to explain the case to them.
“So a doll is cursed and a house is haunted inhabiated by an evil spirit. It sounds like your case, doesn’t it?”
“Yeah...well....the church needs proof and my little brother is handling another case. So I got to give them proof plus there are twelve people living in that house and it ain’t a quirk they said.”
“So what’s special about this?”
"Well a famous detective named Ranpo from Yokohoma finds out that there are disappearances around the house for many years ago and he suspected that they're dead and they are haunting the house. Also he found instances of scratches on the floorboards from many years ago and dried black stains in the basement. Also a pro-hero went into the closet and suddenly, he is in a hallway and sees a doll and a monster behind it." Rin explained.
"A domain expansion. With such disappearances, the spirits that didn’t move on does bring out negative energy leading to cursed energy and it's amatter of time people who will get caught in it." Fushigoro answered.
"Bingo." Rin said. "Plus there is another thing."
"Which is..." Nobara raised a eyebrow.
“Well...do you know the guys who took down Iron Titan and Blazing Blitz, the corrupt anti pro heroes?" Rin asked.
The three blinked.
“You’re joking....” Itadori blinked. "Those guys are still here?! I thought they left after all what happened in Tokyo."
"Yeah I didn't believe it either!" Rin saw the battles and he has to admit. The teenage vigilante Van Ink The Dragon kicks serious ass. She looks like a demon which is pretty admiring he has to say. “Those guys, the DBT are living in that house.”
“You gotta be kidding me! I swear whenever things happened and I mean BIG things, it’s always those guys!” Nobara asked.
"I heard rumors that the masked guy...what's his name. Phantom Slasher? He's interesting..." Megumi hums.
"Forget that! I have to ask those girls like Oblivion and Hellmare where they get their clothes from here." Nobara looks excited.
"Hey, hey. Don't forget. Hellmare and another person, Yuuka wants this to keep a low profile. My brother says so since he owe one of those detective guys back in Yokohoma a favor."
"Then we should inform our teacher then." Fushigoro tells him as he wants to tell Gogo about this. Gogo is going to be curious about this.
‐----- At the haunted house ----
"Dazai! How many people are you bringing?!" Navarro yelled as Jujustu sorcerer came in along with an exorcist, Rin.
"You said bring whoever. Although, it is surprise to hear that Yukio’s bib brother Rin here knows students from Jujustu. Hahahahahah!" Dazai laughs. Navarro twitched an eye. He swears to god this is just a damn prank but if it isn’t, they need all the help they can get.
"So this is Navarro the Bomber. I thought he will be shorter." Fushigoro said.
"Who the fucks say that?!" Navarro yelled. Ink greets them with a happy which makes the four blink while Rust is holding Navarro back from chewing Fushigoro out. "Hi. Name's Ink! Thanks for coming by." Ink said.
"Woah." Rin said, she looks amazing in person. "Name's Rin Okumaru! I'm a big fan! I saw the way you took down Iron Titan. That's amazing!"
"Oh thanks! I glad uh...you like it!" Ink is still not used to having fans. Midoriya noticed, making him chuckle a little. "Anyway..thank you for helping us. We really need your help! I never thought exorcist are real." Midoriya said.
"Heh. We know how to get a job done.." Rin smirked.
"If it's a demon." Fushigoro said. "Hello my name is Megumi Fushigoro, these are my classmates, Yuji Iadtori and Kugisaki Nobara. We are Jujutsu Sorcerers that combats cursed spirits, in this case in your house. We’re here to investigate and it seems like you do have cursed spirits lingering here.”
“Wait...so you’re saying...” Navarro stops himself as he heard this.
“Yes, the house you Airbnb’ed is haunted.” Fushigoro answered.
----- Minutes later ------
“So can you explain to us about this doll you acquired?” Fushigoro asked as Jaron sets down drinks for the four to drink. Ranpo and Fosh are working on the case in the kitchen. Midoriya and Ink are listening to this.
“Yes....well Taz brought it from a store in Kyoto when we were sightseeing.” Hellmare answers. The doll is question is a Japanese doll wearing traditional, a Ichimatsu but has these kawaii style to it with the eyes and blush. Plus it had cat ears. It’s sitting in the chair as the four looks at it with wary eyes. “We spilt up to explore the shrines. She came across a man in a store that was selling in a stall. That’s when she got it.” Hellmare asked. “When I asked her again when the strange things happened, she suddenly can’t recall.”
“And when did it started? Rin here provide us the details but the doll is cursed.”
“Like three days ago and it starts to increases. First, it’s just footsteps and things being moved. then we get disturbed in sleep and we’re seeing visions or memories we do not have of other people.” Hellmare said.
He sighs. “Then you’re going in and out of domain expansion. This is worse than we expected.” Rubbing his forehead, tyring to figure out.
“I think it’s better if we leave the house.” Oblivion said.
“You can’t. The spirits are already attached to you guys.” Rin said, seeing it now. “My little brother said that hauntings are hard to get of, like a gum under the bottom of your shoe. But what’s more...is that kid...uh Taz, right? Something is behind her most of the time.”
This got the teens alarmed. “And what’s behind her?” Ophelia asked worriedly.
“A demon....most likely or what they said....cursed spirit.” Rin said.
“Okay how do we get rid of it?” Midoriya asked.
Itadori looks over to Rin. “I can blessed you guys with holy water and do some stuff. These guys can exorcise them.” Rin said. “Once we get proof of it.’
“Huh? Uh...no offense but when it comes to spirits. Don’t we have to find...well...uh bodies of the victims so they can be found and be buried.” Jaron asked. The four looks at Jaron. “Uh....just an opinion but the guy who lived in this house is a murderer and response for their deaths. Then we gotta do something.”
“Well....it might appease the spirits but if a demon is responsible then they’re keeping the spirits here and corrupting them.” Fushigoro said to which Rin nods at this.
“Then let’s do it! Let’s spilt up!” Ink said. “The exorcist team can find the cursed spirits and we find the bodies...” Ink suggested. Everyone blinked at her suggestion. “I mean we have to.”
“Huh?! Why?” Navarro asked. “Do you have any idea what you’re asking Ink?”
“What are you trying to say? Do you understand how dangerous this is?” Fushigoro is curious and looks hesitant to leave this to someone untrained.
“Well...I seen a lot of horror movies with Shdwkyz and he might agree with this.”
“I do?” Shdwkyz became curious.
“I mean.....the people who went missing need to go to back home even if they are dead. They have people who cared about them.” Ink said, making her team blinked and so did the others. After what the team been through in Japan like dealing with Iron Titan, Blazing Blitz, Nagawasa, Cobin and the all the rest. It made sense. Dazai listened to this attentively with his eyes close.
Atsushi listened and agrees with this. “Ink is right. I understand what she’s saying. The bodies have to be found so they can be laid to rest. I don’t like people dying but the spirits here, they have to move on. I can help out by smelling anything out.”
“Me too! Even if heroes didn’t save those who died, I believe we can help the people who are still here who have missing loved ones. I want to help out too.” Said Midoriya.
“Huh?” Nobara can’t believe what she’s hearing. “I don’t know what you seen in the movies but it ain’t like the movies here. This isn’t a show!” She exclaimed firmly, crossing her arms. Ink frowns a little.
“Indeed...we can’t put non-jujustu sorcerers in danger even if your fraction is know in dealing with danger.”
“Still....we live in this house and we gotta help somehow! If someone needs help whether they’re dead or alive, I’m going to help out!” Ink said. “And no cursed spirits or demon will stop me! This isn’t just about the spirits, but Taz too! She needs us!”
“Knowing Taz, she’s so scared...we need to stay by her.” Said Shdwkyz.
Itadori listened to what Ink said and nods. Proper deaths. He recalled what grandpa was.
“She’s right, guygs. I agree with her.” Itadori is in agreement, “I mean....the people who went missing who didn’t have proper deaths needs a proper burial. Their families deserved it, they have to know what happened to them even if they’re death. It’s better than nothing..” His classmates sighed but didn’t argue. Itadori is that kind of person who believes in proper death.
Rin crosses his arms and nods at this, “Yeah...I gotta agree. But bro is going to hate me for this but he understands where you guys are coming from. We have to get these spirits out of here so they can move on. We need to find the demon, kick its ass and free the spirits.”
“Looks like we have a plan now.” Dazai chuckles, liking what he’s seeing so far. The teens looked pumped up, ready to do this.
Hellmare nods. ‘Don’t worry, Taz! We will help you. We will save you.’
To be continue....
