As the eighteen wheeler drove Kaneki used his tentacles to slash and kill more infected trying to hop on to it. He yawned in boredom, as he said, "I'm bored in the end of the world! What those that say?"

He then noticed an infect in a dove uniform and ripped it in have with his Kagune as he slowly little by little noticed more infected in the uniforms, "what the hell?"

Down in the front seat Utu was driving over an infect in a dove uniform, "What is with all this infect dressed like doves? What is it a zombie costume party? Or some kind of Dove muster kill?"

Takashi shrugged as he said. "beats me." Utu then stopped as he spotted a super market with large barricades around it. "Check it out!"

Takashi then looked at it, "So A super market? Big deal?"

Utu rolled his eyes, "we need food. And food and with barricades like that I don't think any infect could get in! I mean let's look at them shall we!"

Utu then pointed out the barricades' height, "they are eight-foot-high well over the hunter's or Jockey's jump!" He then pointed to the large spikes around it. "and the spikes! Large and pointy so pointy if a charger or tank would try to crash in they would be impaled and die."

Takashi then pointed to a large Ghoul investigator's symbol on the wall, "Note that it's the doves as you call them's place!"

Kaneki then came down, "and look around you at all the dead doves! And the fact the lights in the place are off. Even with the power off if anyone was in there they would at least be torch light!"

Utu then opened his door and got out saying. "You see the crazy man is right! Which means either everyone left of all died! Either way if there are any infect it won't be much and there is a high chance of there being food in there. Which our super group needs."

Takashi then got out as he said. "I see your points but how do we get over the barricades. Kaneki then pointed to his tentacles as he used them as legs to hold himself ten feet in the air.

Takashi rolled his eyes, "Smart ass!"

Utu put his hand to his chin, "Ok we can't all go. And as Kaneki is best off protecting the truck and people in the trailer it limits who can go in. I say Nishiki as his tail can pole vault him over holding a human. And Hinami as she got wings and can glide up."

Takashi, then spoke up "then me and Saeko should be the humans that go with them. I use my gun more as a bat anyway, and she use a sword, we're the only two that can fight without ammo."

Utu gave a thumbs up, "see Humans and ghouls getting along at the worlds end. If we could have done this all along the world might have not ended."

Takashi nodded!

Later on when The four were over the Barricade.

Nishiki set down Takashi, "Now I would say we should split up into teams of one ghoul one human, but let's face it either of us are that trusting!"

Takashi held his gun by its barrel ready to use it to bash some heads in. "Right we split up humans one team Ghouls on another!"

Once inside they split up.

With the humans.

Takashi looked around at a lot of dead bodies as an infected in a dove outfit ran up and he smashed its head in "what happened here?"

Saeko used her Quinque sword to slash in half another infected, "Who knows!"

Takashi then notice a backup power switch and flipped it making the lights come back on as a prerecorded message on the loud speaker played.

The message said. "People! We are unable to last much longer between the infect and the ghouls! We are unable to beat the infect so we came up with a new plan. We the ghoul investigators shall all die along with you joining the infect in killing ghouls. It will all be over today."

Takashi was pale as he smashed in the head of an infect child as he cried. "the investigators would do this? They would kill everyone to take down ghouls!"

Saeko flipped her hair, "I guess the ghouls were right. In the trailer we spoke. They dead the Doves cared nothing about human lives and only want to kill ghouls. And would stop at nothing to do that even if it meant killing humans."

Takashi cried, "Yeah I guess this was a big awakening, for everyone." He then blushed as Saeko put a hand on his shoulder and said, "That is the paste we need to get a move on"

Takashi nodded as he spotted a cart and pulled it along to try and find some noun spoiled food in this place. "Right and Also have you ever thought about us?"

Saeko used her sword to slash in half an infect that ran at her, "You mean as a couple! Every night! What makes you ask?"

Takashi smiled, "I kind of thought about it too. Just never really want to ask as I thought it would be a bad time till the ghoul Utu talked me in to it with this speak about how we need to have hope."

Saeko then smiled and gave him a kiss turning him red, "I would be honored Takashi!"

Meanwhile with the ghouls.

Hinami was used her spine like Kagune to grab some guns and Ammo they found on corpses, as that message played over and over again. "I would hate to be human in this mess!"

Nishiki was pulling a card filled with noun spoiled slash noun perishable food along, "and look at you getting new weapons and ammo for the humans. Kaneki would be proud."

Hinami smiled as she said, "Yeah I wonder what he's doing right now!"

Back outside.

Kaneki's point of view.

I was standing watch over the truck the people and other ghouls inside I alone was guarding it! I looked around when I noticed something. I was regaining sight in my human eye.

I quickly panicked, this eye, the human part of me was regrowing and returning! My human side want me to die! Want me to leave Touka alone!

I can't let that happen! I want to live! I want Touka!

This eye was the symbol of my human half it was back, so would my human side that want to make me die!

I then cracked all ten of my fingers by making two tight fist.

I had to remove this problem before it takes over again. I need to be rid of my human side! So I reached over to the eye and in one moment ripped it out making my eye socket once more bleed.

I growled as I looked at the eye in my hand I then brought my human eye to my mouth and eat it! I eat my human side!

Hopefully this will teach my former self a dark haired scared little brat who wants to die because his mommy didn't love him, to stay gone! To stay dead!

To leave me Alone!

I then stopped for a moment and thought this over. I just ripped out my own eye and eat it! Should I be worried?

I then shrugged it off and recracked my right index finger as I smiled. No I shouldn't! I want to live so I'm simple removing something that wants me to die.

It's self-defense and protecting not just myself but Touka and her new adopted daughter not to mention this two groups who need me.

The biggest threat to all of them isn't the infected, it isn't other groups, It's my human side that wants me to drop dead.

My ultimate enemy right now is that sick part of myself! So nothing's changed! I've always been my own worst enemy.

Well I guess things have changed a little as I'm not doing something a part it!

Also Got dam it my eye tasted heavenly no wonder Utu loves eyeballs so much, or why that purple haired male Yandere want to take a bite out of me so much.

I can hardly blame him now that I had a taste.

Ok now that is a train of thought that I should be worried about.

Return to Third person point of view.

Kaneki spotted the ghouls bring the humans over the barricade with food and weapons, So Kaneki opened the trailer door to let them in, "Ok everyone in now will the person who's turn it is to drive and who ever called shot gun please step up?"

The nurse Shizuka ran up, "I'm driving next!"

Then Kaneki's eyes widen as Touka and Hikari walked up, "and we're riding shot gun!

Later on the truck was rolling again Shizuka driving Touka in the left seat and little Hikari buckled into the spot in-between with Kankei on top once more acting as a guard.

Hikair then yelled out the cracked window, "Mr. Kaneki! Why aren't you sleepy!"

Kaneki used his tentacle to impale a jockey that tried to jump him, "I slept for a year! That's enough sleep for a long time Hikari!" He then cracked his right middle finger using his thumb.

Meanwhile in the trailer the humans and ghouls were talking, well most of them.

Takashi and Saeko had fallen asleep holding hands making Rei growl.

Now while Alice and Hikari were playing a stupid little game Kohta spoke up, "Now I can't believe the investigators would do such a thing!"

Nishiki then said, "If you don't' believe it coming from a ghoul's mouth that's fine. But Your leader and his lady confirmed it! I mean think about it they kill, so they can harvest guts, and use the guts to make weapons which to kill with. How does that sound sane by any definition of the word?

Takagi adjusted her glasses, "when you say it like that I see your point."

Kimi then said this, "look this whole thing between humans and ghouls is just an arms race between predator and prey like with everything in nature. Bunny's evolved to be fast to avoid the fox, and the fox got smart to trap the bunny."

Utu nodded, "Yeah the only difference is both Humans and Ghouls evolved to be smart and look like to try and hide in place site, so they can strike out against the other. But somehow along the ways Human tried to become the predator's by killing the ghouls. That's what makes ghouls and humans different form a fox and a rabbit."

Takagi adjusted her glasses, "Yeah the fox will kill the rabbit but the rabbit won't kill a fox."

Yoriko then spoke up, "yeah but the Fox kills the bunny to eat so it doesn't starve to death. The Bunny won't kill the fox."

Touka then finished with, "While the doves kill ghouls, but for no reason other to be killing them, there is no use for it! They don't need to do it to live. Plus, without a predator the prey over populate and run out of food so the prey all starve to death."

Takagi looked around and said, "I can see the point here. But right now the prey is ghouls and humans, the predator the infected."

Everyone nodded along.

Hinami then said, "so we are all in agreement. We are all the prey trying not to be captured by the predator.

Utu was reading a dove journal Takashi found and brought back, "and beside that even if the world hadn't ending we all would have end up agreeing. The pre-z-day enters in this thing talk about making ghoul human hybrids that could eat food. Both humans and ghouls thought to make hybrids to better kill the other. The hybrids would be the same species. Why kill your own?"

Kimi thought it over, "Sounds to me the world was already heading for a slow slightly violent shift. Sooner or later with the growing number of hybrids the world would have all been hybrids and the lines between ghoul and human would have end. With the ability to eat food the need to kill would have also vanished after a few generations of mixing."

Meanwhile in the driver's seat.

Shizuka stopped as she came to a split in the road. "Ok now do we go to the left dirt road I never seen before? Or continue down the highway."

Touka then said, "Well a new road means newly built place with people. Question is it ghouls and humans working together. Humans who eat ghouls? Or Ghouls who hate people?"

Kaneki then cracked his fingers as he hung himself down low to the window next to Touka, "nothing ventured nothing gained. I saw go with it!"

Unknown to them someone was watching them from a hill using a telescope, the man was dressed in an all camo hunter's outfit using a wooden mask with two eye wholes to cover his face.

He pulled out a radio, "Guys you aren't going to believe it the centipede lives! And is heading here with a group of humans and ghouls!"

A voice over the radio," wait Kaneki's alive? What are you waiting for? go tell the guards to let him in!"
