Rize's Takeover
Kaneki and Touka are out on a late evening walk to Uta's, when Kaneki gets hungry.
"Where are we even going?" I'm cold and Touka won't explain anything. Why did I agree to come out? Oh well, I'm sure she has her reasons. I just hope it's not dangerous.
"There's this dude called Uta; I think you should meet him." Touka sounded annoyed. I didn't question her further. She's quite a temperamental person, and I didn't fancy getting my ass handed to me and ruin the fine evening.
It's eleven pm and, despite the increase in Ghoul activity, the streets are dense with people. We barged through a crowd of people as Touka sighed when she looked at her watch. I asked her if she was okay to which she responded with a glare and flared nostrils. I felt something warm and soft wrap around my hand which pulled me to go even faster. 'Why is Touka in such a hurry' I thought.
Suddenly, Touka stopped and I crashed into her, knocking a few other people in the process. Bright lights and loud music were coming from the Main Street. It was festival night. Shit. Touka groaned with frustration, and then carried me on her back as she leaped over the display when the crowd's attention was on another attraction. This Uta dude must be pretty important.
We got over onto the other side safely (but not as safe as I'd have liked it). Why is she in such a hurry? The wind was getting stronger, and amongst the breeze I detected a rusty smell. I stopped running and Touka grunted in annoyance. She turned round to see my eye mask floating down to the floor, landing lightly in a puddle. With the sound of the splash, a sudden urge came over me to run towards the scent. I was so hungry all of a sudden.
My kagune shot out. AHAHAHAHAHAHA
