The suitcase clanged at Sasaki's side as he jumped effortlessly over the fence. His white coat swayed in the breeze. He was close. Sasaki was chasing an A rank ghoul by the name of Cerberus, known for over thirty recent attacks in the 13th ward. Just up ahead a figure shrouded in a black cloak bounded down the cluttered alleyway.

Sasaki ran faster, barely missing a collision with a vagrant laying among the heaps of trash. The shrouded figure before him was definitely Cerberus. The ghoul smelled sickly sweet. The intoxicating aroma of death. Cerberus rounded a nearby corner, knocking over a trashcan in the process. Sasaki could see obvious signs of fatigue in the ghoul's gait. It was clear that he hadn't eaten recently. Cerberus staggered as he collided with a street sign, the sign buckling under the immense power of the charging ghoul. Cerberus, desperate to outrun Sasaki began to scale the building, using the windows as rungs to boost himself higher. Haise glared as Cerberus reached the roof of the building and began to run yet again.

"Ehhh, not up there." Sasaki groaned as he leaped, following the ghouls movements. Sasaki came to rest on the roof of the building, quickly continuing the chase. His patience was wearing thin. Haise rapidly dashed forward, cutting off Cerberus's escape routes. "Make this easier on yourself", Sasaki said, pressing the button on his suitcase. The long blade shot from the silver casing. His quinque, the Yukimura released a crackle of electricity as it took shape. "The path you're walking only leads to pain."

Cerberus roared as his Bikaku erupted from his lower back. The appendage split into three parts, each resembling a hungry open mouth. Cerberus' oily black kagune slithered menacingly as he lowered his head and slipped a mask from beneath his cloak. Cerberus positioned the mask on his face and let out a canine growl. The brown leather mask resembled a demonic dog, sharp teeth protruding from the sides. The eyes were free while the mouth elongated into a vicious snout. "CCG bastard!" Cerberus growled menacingly, bounding towards Sasaki in a fit of animalistic rage. Despite being quite bulky, his movements were swift and precise. Sasaki swiftly evaded the obvious attack and swung Yukimura upward, slicing through Cerberus's kagune with little effort. The black attachment flopped uselessly to the ground. Cerberus recoiled in agony as Sasaki rushed forward and executed a powerful kick. Cerberus flew backwards and upon landing, launched his Bikaku forward. Sasaki ducked, barley dodging the attack, and in a flash was face to face with Cerberus. The slash was instantaneous. Cerberus's head was separated from his body; the eyes and brain still failing to comprehend what had just transpired. Blood cascaded from the now open wound, engulfing the roof in a shower of crimson. "Simple enough." Sasaki commented to no one in particular, wiping gore from the tip of his quinque. There was no remorse in his voice. Almost empty. He wasn't himself and he was aware of this…. But he liked it… He quietly retracted his weapon and prepared to meet up with the other members of his squad.
