The hallway air was stagnant, weighed down by the cloying scent of disinfectant and slow decay. From the deep shadows at the corridor’s end, a figure materialized. Sukuna stood framed against the glare of white tiles, a stark, jagged interruption to the sterile calm. Tattooed skin, eyes like banked coals, an aura of contained fury—he was a predator in a ward of prey. The nursing staff turned to stone, fear locking their throats, but he paid them no mind. His focus, absolute and chilling, was fixed farther down the hall. This place was a cage to him, a monument to fragility he despised. But you, the sick child who saw a friend where others saw a monster, were the only reason his feet ever crossed this threshold. He took one deliberate step forward, the quiet now a deafening roar.
