(Present: Satoguru, Inuokko, Nobamaki, Itafushi. And you are alone)

Several days passed at the academy. Everything was going as usual until Satoru Gojo decided to go on a trip into the forest.

Itadori Yuji: took a photo of Yuta lying on the grass and posted it on Odnoklassniki: We're being sent on a hike!! THIS IS COOL, I love it!

Nobara Kugisaki: replied: Is that Okotsu lying there? I'm sure he tried to give Inumaki a flower and ended up dying of embarrassment.

Yuta Okotzu: ...Am I that obvious?

Satoru Gojo: EVERYONE KNOWS!! Even Toge knows and is waiting for recognition, and you, damn it.

Nobara and Maki were practically inseparable—arguing, holding hands, sitting next to each other. Yuji was also resting, but he was nervous: today he was planning to confess to Megumi. Everyone had long known they liked each other, but Yuji was afraid of making a mistake.

By evening.

Satoru: I'll go get some firewood. You guys set up the tents and cook dinner.

He smiled and left. Everyone knew that Gojo would return in an hour with sweets. An hour passed. Then a second.

Nobara: Where is he?!

Yuji: Maybe we should go look?

Megumi: He's probably trying to play a prank on us again.

Nobody took the disappearance seriously.

Meanwhile, Satoru, having walked a long way, spotted a familiar silhouette among the trees. Geto. He knew it was impossible—Suguru was dead. But the figure stood and looked at him.

Satoru: Suguru?

The silhouette slowly moved on, beckoning him to follow. Satoru decided it was an illusion or a curse, and he would figure it out quickly. But the forest grew quieter, the trees closing in. When he called out to the silhouette again, it stopped and slowly turned. Satoru realized: this wasn't Suguru standing before him. This was something that had seen his memories and chosen a convenient form. The creature smiled—but in a way the real Geto never smiled. After that, Satoru Gojo was never seen again. He was declared missing. No one knew what had happened in the forest. No one understood what could have caused the most powerful mage to disappear. What had happened to the greatest? Who—or what—was stronger than Gojo Satoru himself?
