Touka led thanatose up the stairs of a apartment to a door wen they walked in there was a sitting area. wow nice place you got here not as good as the mansion back home but still nice he commented. she looked back at him, thanks I guess but its not really mine it belongs to my boss so be nice, in fact he is the one who can help you so take a seat while I go get him she said sternly. he sat down on a couch and sighed, I really hope this guy can help me he thought soon a tall old man came in, well young man touka tells me you need some help he said nicely. this guy was one of them as well he could smell it, yes sr you see something wired is going on with me thanatose began. wen I woke up this morning I was in the hospital but I don't know how I got there and wen I got out I felt this horrible hunger he said. well young man what your dealing with is something all ghouls have the old man said. thanatose just sighed, thats the thing I'm not a ghoul I'm what's called a shiki I drink blood but fore some strange reason I wanted more he said nervously. yoshimura thought fore a moment, h'mm '' it seems your a have breed of some sorts but I've never heard of a ghoul mixed with your kind before he said confused. do you know about the shiki? '' asked thanatose. he was nervous what if he told them about them and something bad happens. yes I have but only rumors your kind is not a common sight here in the city your the first one I've seen in a long time yoshimura explained. thanatose didn't know this but it would make sense. look sr I really need to find out whats wrong and get back home to my wife and daughter before something bad happens thanatose said worried. I see ware are you from I think its safe to say your not from tokyo he asked. I came from a small village called sotobba ware a small group of shiki moved in but now we are being hunted by the village doctor thanatose explained. why are they hunting you if I may ask said yoshimura. well the doctor found out we were the cause of all the deaths in the village and now he has the whole town wanting our heads thana explained. the old man looked at him, why did you kill them did they do something to you he asked. thana sighed, no its just being shiki we have to feed one human blood to live and sadly that means that the humans die he explained.
I wasn't always a shiki I used to be human but wen I found out that my wife was one I had her turn me so I could be with her thana said. I thought I could be different then the rest of them and not feed on humans but use blood packs. but even I couldn't resist the hunger and I fed one people that made me mad '' then wen I seen what it did to family's it ripped them apart and I new that we had to stop so I made a deal with the leader thana explained. the old man had a eyebrow raised, really please tell me what your plan was he asked thanatose. thanatose took a deep breath, well I said that if they stopped feed one the villagers I would saply them with blood packs thanatose answered. it wasn't long before my wife got pregnant with our daughter and she almost died giving berth but we got through it thana said. well you have really been through a lot haven't you yoshimura asked. yes thats why I need to get back before they get hurt but first I need to learn how to control this thing I have in me he said worried. well while I cant tell you why your like this I can help you control your ghoul half yoshimura said. thanatose smiled thanks sr but how can you control it so far the only thing I can control is wen I transform he said. well you can control you hunger by drinking a mix of blood and flesh but ether way you will have to eat yoshimura explained. thanatose thought about it for a moment, I if I can learn to control this then maybe I could use it against ozaki but first I need to get out of this city. ok but ware am I gonna get something like that thanatose asked. the old man smiled, we can make it here we have the meat to make it and we can get blood as well yoshimura said with a light smile. thanatose looked at him strangely, if you don't mind me asking '' ware do you get your food from I mean we normaly have other shiki go into the city to get us blood packs so how do you get yours thanatose asked curiously. we get our food from suicide victims or from other resources the old man explained. well that makes sense by using suicide victims you lower this risk of detection and save time and energy thanatose said. he began to realize that maybe these ghouls could teach him some things. correct because we live in the city there are more people that is both a good thing and a bad thing yoshimura explained. is it because of those men the ccg? '' thanatose asked. the old man sighed, yes unfortunately they think we are all monsters he said sadly. thanatose sighed, ya I know how you feel ware I come from people feel the same way if it dosen't fallow our customs it must go he said sadly. but that is why I have to get back home my family is in danger thanatose explained worried. I see well at the moment it wouldn't be wise to go out the doves are at all time high but you are welcome to stay here as lone as you need yoshimura said. thanatose sighed, ok I'll stay for the night but tomorrow I need to find a way back to sotoba before its to late he said sternly. I if I don't get back and soon megumi and junko along with everyone ells will die he thought worried. can you do me one more favor please? '' thanatose asked. of course what is it you want the old man asked curiously. thanatose looked at him, can you send a letter to sotobba so my family knows I'm ok he asked almost crying. yes of course we can what address do we send it to yoshimura asked smiling. send it to kememasa mansion that's ware me and my family moved after I became a shiki no reason in staying in my old house thanatose explained. I'll right a note and give it to you to mail I just don't want my family to worry about me they problebly think I was kidnapped or something he haf joked. to be honest I really don't know what happened to me or how I got here thanatose said. hmmm'' whats the last thing you remember before waking up in the hospital yoshmura asked curiously. thanatose began thinking of anything that could have happened to put him in the hospital. I remember hunting near the border of the village wen all of a sudden I felt this horrible pain in my side and then black thanatose explained. maybe that doctor did it you did say he was your enemy yoshimura said. its possible that would be the perfect time to ambush me but its not like him to leave the village unprotected thanatose explained. this was true ozaki would never leave the village unprotected just to go after thanatose but then again who else would do this. but if this is true than that I must get back as fast as I can ozaki knows that my family is at its weakest wen i'm gone thanatose explained worried. if you don't mined me asking but what are you wife and daughter's names? '' yoshimura asked. thanatose sighed sadly, there names are megumi shimizu and junko enoshimia he answered almost crying. yoshimura felt bad for him because he knows what its like to miss the ones you love, we will do everything we can to get you back to you family but for now I think it would be wise to stay here for the night he explained. thanatose nodded, thank you for helping me sr you don't know how much this means to me thanatose said thankfully. the old man smiled, its no problem really this it what we do its our duty to help our fellow monsters in there time of need yoshimura explained. thanatose yawned, well thanks but all this stuff has made me really tired I need some sleep thanatose said tiredly. the old man smiled, yes of course you've been trough a lot i'll have touka show you to a room he said kindly. touka sighed boredly, agh '' okay fine come one family man I'll she you to your room she said annoyed. thanatose had to chuckle this girl reminded him of megumi wen she gets mad. ok I'm coming he said and fallowed her through the hallway until they got to a door and inside was a bedroom and a nice one too. wow this is really nice still not as good as the mansion back home but nice thanatose admited. thanks I guess this will be your room while you stay here if you need anything at all please do not come bug me she said boredly and walked out. hmm '' wonder what her problem is she seems like she dosn't like me to well he said to him self. he went over to the bed and lade down staring at the sealing, I hope my family is okay I don't know what I would do with out them he said. he knew that without him the shiki were at there weakest and this would be a perfect time for ozaki to attack them. if he lays a finger one them he will be my next meal than said evily and closed his eyes. slowly sleep took him over and he began to slip into dream land his only hope was that megumi and junko were safe.
please be safe girls don't worry i'm coming.
