Darkar's Castle
A figure was curled up in the darkness, deep in slumber, though he wouldn't be asleep for much longer. He sensed something powerful, it was so familiar. It was the-
"Dragon's Flame."
A large burst of dark magic exploded around the figure, he fell from the air and landed on the ground, lightly. After 16 long years, he was finally free. He could finally capture the Dragon's Flame but he needs help. He has no idea where the Ancestral Witches are and can't sense them.
"No matter. My magic is slowly regaining itself, soon I'll be strong enough to hunt down the Dragon's Flame and use the Ultimate Power," Darkar says, full of glee. "I need allies, and I know just where to find one." Darkar teleports to the archives of his castle searching for one book in particular. He found it instantly.
"Ah, here it is. 'The Legend of the One-Eyed King', the Dragon that will reset the world and life once he destroys it. A perfect companion to help me in my goals," Darkar grinned, maliciously, as he set out to make the perfect summoning.
Everything needs to go perfectly.
Tokyo Ghoul World
"I don't want to be unable to do anything," Kaneki tells Tsukiyama before pulling his mask back on. He leapt building to building sprinting to Anteiku. He needs to get to Anteiku before the CCG kills everyone, he needs to save his friends.
The second Kaneki's foot lands on the roof the next building a luminous black circle with foreign writing and pictures appeared under his feet.
"What the f***!" Kaneki yells as he finds he can't move an inch, the light grew brighter until it was blinding and Kaneki disappeared from the roof. Kaneki was thrust through a rainbow tunnel, the light it emits was almost blinding. Despite its beauty, Kaneki could feel the evil and negativity growing on the other side and that scared him. The rainbow soon transformed into a deep dark black with red lightning buzzing off the walls.
"No! Send me back! Send. Me. Back!" Kaneki screams slamming his eyes shut as he feels a large burst of energy expels from his body. The tunnel explodes. Suddenly Kaneki finds the tunnel to be replaced with a starry night sky before he plummets.
Kaneki grunts and shouts as he crashes into numerous tree branches before finally painfully smashing into the ground. Kaneki was only conscious long enough to vaguely note that there was a school not too far off before he welcomed the darkness.
Winx Club World - Alfea - 6th September 2005
Faragonda, Griselda and the other teachers were sitting together in the staff room, drinking tea. The rebuilding of the college has just been completed since the attack of Trix and there was only a week left before the new year starts which means no more peace and quiet for them thus they take the time to enjoy the silence.
Their moment of peace was interrupted when the ground begins to quake. The furniture in the room such as the table, bookshelves and other objects start to vibrate. Tea started spilling out the sides of the cup.
"What is happening?" DuFour gasps as she pushes against the bookshelf to prevent it from tipping over though books continuously fell out.
The night sky slowly yet powerfully started morphing into a purplish-blue funnel which spat out a dark figure that plummets to the unforgiving ground with a deafening crash. The ground is still once again.
"What was that?!" Palladium freaked out. All the teachers ran outside scouring the area but could find nothing. However, Faragonda walked closer to the entrance to the forest, the others following suit. She sensed something unusual yet undeniably powerful.
To their shock, they found a white-haired adolescent dressed in leather with a strange mask, lying on the ground, knocked out cold. He was bleeding heavily, if left untreated he could die.
Ofelia immediately went to the body, "He's alive but I need to take him to my clinic." Ofelia transported herself and him to her office while the rest of the teachers were left outside.
Ofelia began to strip Kaneki of his dirtied and damaged leather suit and mask but stumbled back gasping in shock when Kaneki's limbs abruptly snap back into place.
"My word-!" Ofelia mutters under her breath, her eyes wide. Nonetheless, this boy is her patient and despite his abnormality, she has a duty to treat him though it appeared there wasn't really a point since all his wounds had healed without so much as a bruise. She scrubbed his body clean of dirt and dried blood before dressing him in some grey sweats.
Ofelia did a quick scan which revealed that Kaneki would not be waking any time soon which gave her the opportunity to discuss their mysterious guest with the rest of the staff. Just as a precaution Ofelia cast a spell on the door so if anyone left she would immediately be informed.
Staff Room
"Ofelia, how is our guest?" Faragonda inquires about his wounds. All the teachers were sitting on sofas spread around an oak coffee table which was placed in the centre of the room.
"Just fine," Ofelia replies much to the confusion of the rest.
"What d'ya mean by fine? He fell from the sky!" Wizgiz exclaims. "You don't just recover from a grievous injury such as that. Not that I'm doubting your healing abilities," Wizgiz adds as an afterthought waving his hands fervently in front of his face as not to insult Ofelia's skills.
"When I checked him over most of the wounds had already healed and his limbs suddenly snap back into place." Their surprise just kept on growing.
"So he's not human," Palladium deduced.
"Headmistress, you've been awfully quiet," DuFour notes which garners the attention of the rest, "what do you think?"
"This boy... I don't believe he's apart of the Magic Dimension," Faragonda divulges placing a hand on her chin.
"What do you mean?" DuFour inquires in disbelief.
"You all saw that portal. The last one that appeared was almost 5 centuries ago according to history books," Faragonda reminds.
"So this boy might be the same?" Palladium predicts.
"I sensed the strong and unadulterated power festering within him. I believe he was summoned from someone our world and that opened an undiscovered crossroad between worlds. This boy was exposed directly to raw and unfiltered magic."
"Summoning? Another world? Is that even possible?" Wizgiz inquires.
"Summoning between two unconnected universes is a complicated subject but that's not to say it is impossible," Faragonda explains, "it's been said that the portal from before was actually a summoning attempt, a successful one to boot as well."
"Should we inform the Council of Magix?" Ms Clef (1) suggests. "I mean this isn't something we should keep to ourselves."
"Especially if we have another worlder in our midst," Palladium supports.
"Not yet," Faragonda states firmly, the temperature dropping a couple degrees in the room. "There has been no other success summons until today despite continuous research by Favian's organisation. Favian is a good man but he is obsessed with his work, I fear that boy may be seen as just as an experiment by that man."
"What shall we do then?" DuFour inquires.
"Let him stay for tonight and I'll make my decision tomorrow after speaking with him," Faragonda reassures taking a small sip of her tea. "He deserves a good night's rest."
The rest of the teachers agree with her decision easily since they had absolute faith in her.
Darkar's Castle
"No!" Darkar cursed. He was so close. The One-Eyed King was nearly in his grasp but used his powers to escape at the last minute to Alfea. There was no way he could go there in his current state. "Tch, I can retrieve him later, but to think he could escape my grasp. Such a worthy ally. No matter, he shall be mine. Right now I need to focus on getting stronger and I know just how to do that," Darkar laughed, malevolently.
Alfea - The Next Morning - 7th September 2005
"Kaneki," a familiar voice calls out which causes Kaneki's eyes to snap open. Right in front of him was Hide who was waving a hand in front of his face.
"H-Hide?" Kaneki stutters before looking around to find himself on Kamii grounds. "We're at Kamii?"
"Man, you were spacing out bad if you can't remember where we are," Hide jokes though his eyes scanned Kaneki for anything else wrong. "Well that's what you get for reading all those books all the time, you start to lose your mind," Hide warns shoving his face right into Kaneki's who flinched back before rolling his eyes at Hide's usual silliness.
"Better than having my brain rot from all those video games you play," Kaneki quips then laughs when Hide gasps in a dramatic manner.
"For shame! That's it. I'm going to Anteiku all by myself, hopefully seeing Touka-chan's face will ease the betrayal of my best friend's cruel words," Hide sobs before he sallied forwards swinging his arms with exuberance.
'Yeah, I'm sure her punch will make you forget all about my words,' Kaneki snorts as he jogged to keep up with Hide. The two razzed and joked on the way to Anteiku but the sight they saw was nothing Kaneki expected.
A large sea of red, orange and yellow engulfed the café scorching every part of the building. The window panes explode spraying shards of glass with the intensity of numerous bullet. Parts of the cafe started to crumble and collapse to the ground and billows of smoke danced above the raging flames in tune with the wind. The roar and crackle of the flames were almost deafening.
"W-What?" Kaneki mutters in a single breath, his eyes wide in shock reflected the flames. "What happened?"
"Don't you remember?" Hide laughs but it lacks any humour. Kaneki whips right around to find a kagune extruding from his stomach. No, not a kagune, a quinque. "The CCG found out about this place."
Suddenly Kaneki found himself surrounded by the Doves who just stood there not moving an inch, they didn't even unlock their quinques then out of nowhere multiple bodies were tossed like rag dolls into the centre.
Kaneki stumbled backwards before letting out a horrifying shriek filled with the raw emotion of despair and agony. By his feet lay his friends and allies, dead. Battered and bloodied, limbs chopped up, some were even missing their eyes. Touka, Hinami, Nishio, Manager, Banjou and his friends, Koma, Irimi even Kimi... dead. Tortured to the very edge of life.
"Do you get it now? It's all your fault," Hide condemns as blood leaks from his eyes and mouth. The fallen bodies of Kaneki's friends rising to their feet, echoing Hide's words. "Your fault. Your fault. Your fault."
"No," Kaneki whimpers falling to his knees as he clamps his hands over his ears to drown out their echoing blame. "No!" The flames augmenting until Kaneki could feel the blaze charring his skin. The temperature continued to soar to the point where it becomes suffocating.
"You belong to me, my King," a skeletal hands captures Kaneki's chin in a firm grip and lifts his head until smoky grey eyes meet glowing red. "My power flows within you. There's nowhere you can run where I can't find you." The bony figure transforms into a phoenix.
4 thin oval crystals came into sight out of nowhere, they shine a light teal before connecting together and forming a sphere of light that grows bigger, slowing transmuting to neon red.
Can't breathe. Can't breathe. Can't breathe!
Kaneki's eyes snapped open only to be met with darkness, his starved lungs were screaming for air which sent him into a panic. He tried to kick and claw to free himself but it was proving fruitless until finally, he ripped the blanket from his frame, unintentionally tearing it to shreds. Kaneki shot up from the bed, gasping and panting, before toppling over due to his fervent actions.
While on his hands and knees he whips his head left and right as he analysed the room, multiple beds were lined up against the bed all equipped with privacy screens, the pristine white walls were plastered with eye charts and other medical posters. The stench of disinfectant was thin yet ripe enough to give Kaneki a headache.
"I'm in a hospital?" Kaneki mutters in confusion, but who could blame him. A ghoul as dangerous as him wouldn't be put in a hospital and even if they decided to give him the benefit of the doubt, he should be chained to the bed in isolation. What with all these other beds? They took his suit and mask which he wasn't impressed with. It was most likely standard procedure but he was still p*ssed. At least the clothes he was given were comfortable though it gave him a terrible sense of foreboding.
Ever since he found out about Kanou... let's just say he didn't really trust hospitals after that.
Kaneki pushed himself to his feet and strolls to the window, drawing the curtains. The daylight blinds him for a second but he gets over it just as quick, he was stunned to see a courtyard below him instead of a prison. Where was he? There was forest as far as the eye could see and the entrance was wide open, Kaneki didn't even think there was a gate to close. Kaneki notices a broad figure sweeping the pavement.
'A janitor,' Kaneki realises noting the cleaning trolley beside and the overalls he was wearing. Speaking of which... Kaneki squints, his nose crinkling at the action when he notices something abnormal about the janitor. "What the heck is up with that guy's skin?" Kaneki questions when he realises that it was actually yellow.
"Vedo che sei sveglio," a kind voice greets and Kaneki's head jolts towards where the voice came. He is introduced to an elderly woman with grey short curly hair, dark blue eyes, and black horn-rimmed glasses. She was wearing a long-sleeved light pink shirt with ruffles at the end of her sleeves and a navy blue vest with white trim and puffed sleeves. She wears a long pink skirt with ruffles near her ankles and black high heels. The moment her eyes connected with his, she freezes, "Un ghoul?" (I see you're awake. A ghoul?)
Kaneki recoils then smacks a hand over his left eye cursing himself for exposing his kakugan even though it was accidental, he didn't even realise that he didn't have on an eyepatch. He couldn't stay here. It won't be long till backup arrives and the last thing he wants to deal with are the Doves especially after what happened last night. He's still perturbed by the events of last night.
Kaneki clutches a defibrillator pack attached to the wall and hurls it in Faragonda's direction before smashing the window with his foot then leaping right out of it.
Faragonda summons a shield to block the assault then gasps when she sees his swan dive out the window.
"Headmistress, I heard a crash!" Ofelia shouts as she rushes into the room, her heels miraculously not slowing her down. She is introduced to a shattered window, a broken piece of medical equipment and her white-haired patient nowhere in sight, "where is-?"
"He's a ghoul," Faragonda informs curtly darting past Ofelia and out the door. Faragonda immediately informs the other members of faculty about her discovery and their course of action using her magic to communicate, "Everyone, that boy who was found is a ghoul and he escaped out the window. Please take caution when trying to subdue him. Ghouls are not to be taken lightly!" Faragonda warns.
Since Season 2 was released in 2005 that is when this universe starts.
