   Satoru 𝐥𝐚𝐳𝐢𝐥𝐲 𝐫𝐨𝐬𝐞 𝐨𝐮𝐭 𝐨𝐟 𝐡𝐢𝐬 𝐛𝐞𝐝 𝐭𝐡𝐚𝐭 𝐦𝐨𝐫𝐧𝐢𝐧𝐠. He staggered around his dorm to get ready and almost forgot to change out of his night clothes before class. "Hey Satoru! Just here to make sure you're up." Suguru called from the door, Satoru dragged his feet against the tangled carpet as he walked to let his best friend in. 
   "Oh wow, you do not look good man." He eyed him up and down as soon as he opened the door. "Did you sleep at all last night?" The fatigued male ignored his friend and instead pushed past him, pulling the door in behind him. 
   "To be honest, no. But listen, I've deduced down to some simple plans. I want to do this immediately." The Six Eyes user spoke while initiating the walk to their class. "One: We blow up the place and get her out. Two: We warp in and warp out. Three: We pick all 7 locks and just sneak her out or something. And four: we murder my whole clan." The dark haired male choked on his laughter as Satoru plainly side eyed him. 
   "Gojo Satoru, what the hell are you murdering your whole clan for? That's treason and completely illegal, the higher ups would exile you in a heartbeat." Shoko seemed to have silently joined the group as they both looked down at her. Then back at each other, it ended finally when Satoru gave his special grade friend a nod. 
   They told her the whole story, sparing no details. They spoke about it throughout the day. Throwing plans around as if they were being graded on it. 
   "Listen, your clan will know you took this random girl. You keep overlooking the factor that she's a threat to them if she's locked up. If you're going to get her out, the best time to do it is when nobody's aware. That means no authority should be at your house. No mom, no dad." Shoko erratically spoke, finally quieting the bickering two. 
   They silently both ate their ramen in shame. Why hadn't they thought of that? "Listen, I'll call my mother later tonight, and I'll figure out when they'll be out for a meeting next. Because, Shoko, you're completely right." She nodded her head in arrogance. 
   "But, don't you think she'll be suspicious that you're going on a day your parents won't be there. Isn't she like super intuitive?" Suguru brought up a fair point. 
   Satoru snapped his fingers immediately, "No I'll just say it's the only time I have off and I just need to pick up some things. So it'll be a short visit." He savored the last of his ramen by licking the flavor from his lips, while stacking his bowl on top of his two friends empty ones. 
   "Okay, so you do that. And we'll finalize the plan tomorrow, for sure." Shoko gave him a light smile before getting up and walking to her dorm or maybe outside to go smoke her secret cigarette.
   "Suguru, you're my best friend. Do you seriously think this will work?" Satoru looked over to his friend, suddenly feeling hopeless. "I just- I can't shake how I feel about her. She's important and she can't continue to be locked up, especially if its hurting me too. I can't risk it, and I truly do think she'll be safer with me." Suguru reached out to his friend and pat his back. 
   "I'll be with you every step of the way, if anything I'll have to help you get her out as well. We'll see when the time comes. But goodnight though, try and get some rest." Suguru rose with a final goodnight and left the Gojo to his lonesome in the lunch room. He laid his head down in his hands as he heaved a sigh. 
   "I'm gonna get you out, I swear by it." He whispered to himself. A moment later his cheeks began to feel hot, and he felt warm inside. He felt listened to, like the girl he was talking to had heard what he said. "I'll protect you, and I'll make sure nothing harms you ever again." He smiled to himself as he pulled his phone out of his pocket and dialed his mothers number.
