Chapter 1 [REWRITTEN]
Fey hid behind a corner with her mentor, Kiro, beside her.
"We've got him trapped." Kiro said, holding his quinque. His quinque resembled an executioner's axe, with a decorative skull on the side.
"All we have to do now is to do the killing blow."
*crunch*
The two looked at each other, confused.
"What was that?" Fey asked, brushing her blonde hair off her face.
"I don't know, but let's take him out on three." Kiro replied.
Fey nodded and waited for his signal.
"Three"
*bang*
"Two"
*thump*
"One"
*pow*
"Now!"
The two jumped out of the corner and saw the ghoul turned around, with his kagune repeatedly hitting the concrete wall.
Kiro rushed in with Fey behind him, the ghoul turned around and threw a piece of concrete at them. Kiro sliced the concrete in two with his quinque. The ghoul started to hit the wall faster.
"It's trying to escape." Kiro said, "get him!"
Fey ran past Kiro and sliced the ghoul's kagune off with her long knife. "That's one" then sliced another, "two" then as she was about to slice off the third a tentacle hit her, sending her back. Kiro caught her in time and set her down gently. He then rushed at the ghoul and when the ghoul turned its last two tentacles shooting out towards Kiro, he dodged the two and jumped, axe above him. As he fell towards the ghoul he brought down his axe upon the ghoul. Right down the middle, the ghoul fell down, blood flowing everywhere. Kiro panted and knelt down and looked at the hole behind the ghoul. "He was so close too..." Kiro said, as he saw how deep the hole is.
He walked back to his student and gave her his hand, she took it with a smile. He looked at her with his hazel eyes. Kiro had long hair which reached up to his neck, and wore the usual trench coat CCG investigators wear.
"This is why you don't forget your quinque." Kiro said, winking.
Fey gently pushed him back, "I'm sorry~" she playfully said. Kiro laughing, "alright, let's go." Fey nodded back, looking at her mentor with her bright blue eyes.
They arrived back at the CCG building with Alex, Fey's best friend and also Kiro's student, stood at the entrance.
She waved to the two, "heeeeyyy!" She called out to them, smiling. They met and Alex hugged the two tightly.
"You guys took your time!" She said
Kiro chuckled, "did we worry you?"
"Kinda."
The three walked inside the building.
"Alright you two, go up to the 5th floor and sit down wherever, I'll meet you both there." Kiro said, walking to the front counter.
The two then walked towards the elevator.
"So~" Alex sung, "how was the hunt?~"
"It was no problem, no injuries." Fey said briefly.
"That's good! Tell me the whole story!"
"All of it?"
Alex nodded, her silvery hair waving.
They went up to the 5th floor, when the doors opened the two looked for the nearest chairs and sat. Fey telling Alex the story. The two stayed there for almost an hour until Kiro came to them.
"Then Kiro brought down his axe on the ghoul-" Fey got cut by Kiro taking a seat with them.
"Hey you two. I got some news." He said.
"Hmm? What is it?"
"Ever heard of the 20th ward?"
The two girls nodded, "well we are to be relocated there."
"Really? That place is as safe as anywhere out of Japan."
Kiro nodded with agreement, "yes, but recent reports stated that a binge eater is active in that ward, along with an S rated ghoul appeared there with the alias 'Jason'" Kiro explained.
"We are to investigate their whereabouts and bring them down."
"That's cool! Am I coming?" Alex asked, interested.
"Of course you are, Alex. You didn't think I would leave you." Kiro said, smiling.
"Yay!"
"Hmm, if the 20th ward is as peaceful people say it is, then why did those dangerous ghouls show up there?" Fey asked.
"No one knows, that's why we are going there to investigate." Kiro replied, "but of course, we are not alone. We are to be relocated along with Mado and Amon, I'm sure you know about them?"
Fey nodded.
"Well, that's about it. Any more questions?"
"What's a binge eater?" Alex asked.
"A binge eater is a ghoul who eats for pleasure than because they are hungry." Fey told her.
"Anyway, I'm gonna take my leave, meet me here tomorrow, alright?"
The two nodded as they saw Kiro go down the elevator.
"I guess we should go too." Fey said.
"Yeah."
The two stood up and went down the elevator, and went into the streets. They passed by houses and shops while the two walked they conversed about their day. While Alex's day full of cheer Fey's day was abnormal for a teenager. The two were only 16 years old, very young for CCG investigators. The two stopped at a house, Alex's house. Fey waved and said goodbye to Alex who waved back and Fey made her way to her own home. She unlocked her door to her apartment and went inside. Fey stretched and removed her shoes, she went to her room and saw her briefcase with a strap leaning on her bed. She did not like the idea of holding a briefcase everywhere, so she put a strap on it so she can sling it on her shoulder and it can hang on her back. Fey sighed and took a shower then laid down on her bed before succumbing into a deep sleep.
I re-wrote chapter 1 because I felt that the original made my story look boring. So yeah
and I did not directly describe Fey and Alex like in the last one, I decided to do it undirectly
Anyway, Thanks for reading. Review and Fav 3
