Chapter 1
Looking back at everything, he had to admit he never expected anything like this to happen, Tokyo in ruins hundreds probably thousands dead, and to make it worse, it was all his fault, and there were so many points where he had made mistakes, he had to wonder how many of those mistakes actually led to this moment?
"Well what are you waiting for?" Kaneki looked back to the ground where he lay seemingly defeated and defenceless, "This is what you wanted, isn't it? So just get it over with and kill me"
It was very tempting but he was hesitant? After all this man had done it only seemed right, he was the real reason Tokyo currently lays in ruins, while it may have been Kaneki's kagune it was Furuta's plan all along, he should have every reason to want to kill him but he didn't, there was no explanation for it, but there was something else, he didn't feel right, "Why?"
Furuta's eyes widened with excitement as he exclaimed all the while laughing uncontrollably, "Now you ask it! What about earlier, I thought you didn't care!"
Shaking his head with narrowed eyes he said, "You seem a little eager to die, why do you want me to kill you?"
"That's for me to know and you to find out, isn't it now?"
Anger quickly found its way back to Kaneki as he said, "Your stalling, what are you waiting for!?"
"Kaneki"
That voice, that soft feminine voice, it was hauntingly familiar, slowly turning towards it, was it really her? "Ri-Rize?" Before he could utter another word she turned around and went back from whence she came, "Where are you going!?"
Laughter filled the air, "It's about time" it was Furuta,
Turning towards the man Kaneki shouted, "What is going on!?"
A sudden click caught his attention and Kaneki turned his gaze to where the sound had come from, in Furuta's hand was a small black box with a single button his eyes widened, "It looks like you've lost"
*Bang!*
He didn't even have the chance to look up as concrete and fire rained down upon them.
'Am I dead?'
Beep….. Beep….. Beep….. Beep….. Beep…..
That sounded familiar, where had he heard it before? Looking back into his memories, to what felt like a life time ago, 'The only time I've ever heard that was when I had woken up in the hospital after my date with Rize' his thoughts paused at the name, 'Was that really her? She should be dead' slowly but surely enough his eyes opened and the only thing he could see were lights, bright blinding lights and they were moving further away, the further the lights went the more he could see around him, 'White ceiling, walls, and machines to my left and right definitely a hospital room but how did I get here?'
The light suddenly stopped moving an even more came into focus but before he could get a better look at what else surrounded him someone came into view, an elderly, grey-haired man wearing a white coat, white shirt, and black necktie, suddenly his face started becoming clearer, the first thing to become clear were his lips, they were forming into what Kaneki could only assume was meant to be a comforting and welcoming smile, next were his eyes, a light brown, the rest of his face quickly came into focus,
Beep….. Beep….. Beep…. Beep…. Beep… Beep,
It was Akihiro Kanou, panic raced it's way through his mind but he couldn't move! Everything was starting to go dark again, 'I don't want to die like this!'
Hey everyone I hope you enjoyed the first chapter, there are a few things that I wanted to say before leaving this so I'll get all of that out of the way now.
The first thing I wanted to bring up is the chapter's length, I thought that a short and simple start was the best way to go about this and I can guarantee that the rest of the chapters in this story will be longer.
Secondly, I started this chapter when Re: chapter 174 was uploaded and decided to start it a couple of chapters after that.
And finally, I'm not too sure when I'll be uploading new chapters, this story is just one of the many I am currently working on, so while I can't guarantee often uploads I will however guarantee that I'll upload a chapter the moment I have finished with it.
And with all that said I hope to see you all in the next chapter, so please follow, favorite and review.
