Irimi pulls out her keys from her back left pocket. She unlocks the door, as we get inside. I then lock the door, as we take our shoes off. I then look at her eyes for a few seconds, as she takes off her brown wig and places it near the coffee table. She adjusts her chin length raven black hair, as she walks towards me and wraps her arms around my neck.
"I'm up for a session today. You?" Irimi said, wondering, as I smiled.
"Sure." I said, as I kissed her lips, before wrapping my arms around her waist. Irimi's cheeks glow bright pink, as she quickly takes off her brown contact lenses and puts them inside a contact case.
"To your room?" I said, wondering, as I looked at her black eyes.
"Sure." Irimi said, as we walked over to her room, while I took my blue sweater and white socks off. Irimi takes off her purple jacket, pink socks, and white sweater as we arrive to her room. We walk over to her bed as she pushes me onto the bed before jumping on top of me. I remove my Bloodborne t-shirt and sleeveless gray shirt and toss them to the floor. Irimi licks her lips upon seeing my moderately toned chest. She kisses my lips as she thrusts her pelvis against mine twice.
"Hey. Irimi." I said, as Irimi looked at me.
"What is it, Isaac?" Irimi said, curious.
"Do you think you can activate your…?" I said, as I smiled.
"Oh." Irimi said, getting the message. She activates her Kakugan.
"You look very beautiful when you do that." I said, as Irimi's cheeks were flushed crimson.
"Thanks." Irimi said, chuckling, as she removes her blue t-shirt and tosses it to the floor. She then kisses my lips, as I roll myself on top of her.
"How long has It been since we last made love?" Irimi said, wondering, as I gently kissed her left shoulder.
"June 14th, 2012. Shower sex." I said, chuckling, as I placed my hands on her jeans. I look at her, as she nodded her head yes. Irimi slowly unzips her jeans, as I then lower them to look at her black panties.
"Oh. Now I remember. Steamy shower door, soapy bodies, and you giving me the best oral sex I've ever had." Irimi said, chuckling, as she kisses my lips before rolling me over. She's on top of me, as she removes her sleeveless brown shirt before tossing it at my face. I laugh in response, as Irimi giggled, while she strokes my chest with her hands. I then lift my upper body up, as Irimi wraps her legs around my waist. I kiss her lips, as I slowly attempt to remove her purple Calvin Klein bra. She slaps my arms with both hands as I look at her.
"Did you really think I was gonna let you see my friends while you still have jeans?" Irimi said, as a sly smile emerged from her face.
"Si insistes (If you insist)." I said, playfully, as Irimi let out a soft, sensual moan.
"I really miss hearing you talk dirty in that accent." Irimi said, as she unwraps her legs around my waist before I get out of bed. I undo my belt and unzip my jeans, before lowering them to the floor. Irimi takes a gander at the bulge in my gray boxers, as I crawled back to her bed. Irimi kisses my lips as I wrap my arms around her neck.
"Si quieres, puedo recrear ese momento para ti (If you want, I can recreate that moment for you)." I said, sensually, as Irimi looked at me, curious, while kissing my neck.
"Recreate what?" Irimi said, wondering, as my cheeks turn pink.
"Your O-face when we were in my shower." I said, as I smiled, while gently stroking her right arm. A small smile emerges from Irimi's face, as she lowers her black panties, before dropping them to the floor. My cheeks turn crimson upon seeing Irimi's smooth vagina, as Irimi lets out a small pant.
"You can eat to your heart's delight." Irimi said, sensually, as I kissed her lips, then licked her neck, kissed her right shoulder, and licked her slender stomach, as Irimi begins to shiver upon my tongue touching her stomach. Finally, I lick my lips before I begin to lick her vagina. Irimi's toes begin to curl upon the first 4 licks, as she lets out a soft whimper.
"Something wrong?" I said, as I looked at her.
"You're fine. Keep going." Irimi said, in a reassuring manner, as I licked her vagina three more times before proceeding to insert my tongue inside her vagina.
"AH! AH! AH!" Irimi said, moaning, as I began to lick the insides of her vagina. Irimi thrusts her pelvis against my head twice, as I spoke.
"I see someone is getting a little antsy." I said, muffling, as Irimi chuckled.
"What did you expect? I was the badass puta (bitch) in my group back in the day, like you said." Irimi said, as she places her hands on my head to keep me locked in. I then place my right index finger inside her vagina to allow myself more breathing room. Irimi lets out a soft moan, as I move my index finger around in her vagina. Irimi lets out a few soft whimpers, as she grabs her breasts with both hands, as I continue to lick her vagina.
"Como fresas y crema (Like strawberries and cream)." I said, quietly, as Irimi squealed in joy. Irimi then proceeds to slowly remove her purple bra when…
"AHHHHH!" Irimi shouted, in joy, as her juices flowed out of her vagina, and into my mouth. I take it all in and swallow it. I take my tongue out of Irimi's vagina and gently wipe my mouth with my right thumb.
"Refreshing." I said, as Irimi let out a weak chuckle. I then crawl towards her and passionately kissed her lips, allowing her to have a taste of her own juices. We pull our heads back to see the sticky saliva connecting our mouths together. Irimi then crosses her arms and removes her purple bra off her chest. I take a gander at her creamy and natural C-Cup breasts, along with her raindrop pink nipples, as Irimi let out a relaxed sigh.
"You missed these, haven't you?" Irimi said, as she cupped her breasts, before I proceed to gently stroke them.
"Of course I have." I said, as I pressed my chest against her breasts before she kisses my lips. Irimi then wraps her arms around my neck, as I begin to thrust my pelvis against hers. Irimi moans into my mouth, as I cupped her left breast with my left hand, before gently rubbing her left nipple with my left thumb. I then proceed to go down to her breasts and proceed to kiss and lick her nipples. A warm smile emerges from Irimi's face, as she begins to fondle her vagina with her right index finger and right middle finger.
"I can give you head again if you like." I said, calmly.
"I think it's my turn to pay you back for all the nut-kicking I gave to you." Irimi said, as she proceeds to grab my erect penis from inside my boxers using her right hand. She then proceeds to pump my shaft for a few seconds as I lock lips with her. We then swap positions, as Irimi finds herself on top of me. She then pulls my boxers down, before taking a gander at my erect shaft. She hungrily licks her lips, before proceeding to kiss the tip of my penis. I let out a moderate gasp, as Irimi chuckled.
"It was just a peck." Irimi said, as a mischievous smile emerged from her face before she proceeds to her insert my shaft inside her mouth. She sucks on my shaft like it was soft serve ice cream, as I close my eyes, and let her do as she please.
"He extrañado mucho esto (I've missed this so much)." I said, weakly, as tears begin to stream down my face.
"Keep talking dirty in that accent, and I won't mind biting your friend off." Irimi said, muffling.
"If you insist." I said, as Irimi giggled.
"I'm kidding! You should know this by now." Irimi said, as she continued to suck on my penis, while fondling her left breast with her right hand. Irimi proceeds to suck on my penis until…
"Irimi…" I said, panting heavily.
"Yeah, Isaac?" Irimi said, wondering.
"I'm about to come. Be ready." I said.
"Got it." Irimi said, as she grabbed my testicles and proceeds to gently squeeze them. I let out a sharp gasp, as my semen exits through the tip of my penis and into her mouth. Irimi swallows it whole, with a few globs of semen still on her lips. She gets up to her knees as I look at her.
"I need you to clean me up, please." Irimi said, slyly, as I proceeded to lick my semen off from her face.
"Almond milk." I said, as Irimi chuckled.
"You up for Round 3?" Irimi said, wondering, as I got off the bed to pull something out from the front left pocket of my jeans. A Trojan condom.
"Sure thing." I said, chuckling, as I opened the packet and unrolled the condom before sliding it into my shaft. Irimi gets under the sheets, as she let out a mischievous chuckle. I crawl back into bed and get under the sheets as well. Irimi turns herself around, as I have a curious look on my face.
"Anal?" Irimi said, curious, as I have a baffled look on my face.
"You're blushing." Irimi said, as we laughed.
"I just wasn't expecting you to be game for it." I said, as I got up to my knees.
"Sit up, please." I said, as Irimi complied. I press my chest onto her warm back, as Irimi moaned. I lightly stroke her breasts, as Irimi moaned louder. Irimi then turns her head around to kiss my lips, as she places her hands around my reddened cheeks. We then lie down, as I begin to insert my shaft into her anus.
"I'll be gentle." I said, as Irimi moaned.
"I'm okay with you being rough." Irimi said, calmly, as I managed to get my shaft inside her anus.
"Tell me when." I said, wondering.
"When." Irimi said, as she grabs the pillows near her, while I begin to make three thrusts. Irimi's body convulses wildly, as she speaks.
"That feels so good." Irimi said, as I kissed her the left side of her neck and her ears, while I continued to thrust.
"Can you pick it up a bit?" Irimi said, as I complied. Irimi tightly clenches her pillow. Tears stream down Irimi's face.
"When do you want me to stop?" I said, as I notice that her whimpers are getting louder.
"As soon as I grab my boobs." Irimi said, as I continued to thrust my pelvis against her anus while planting my right hand on the bed for support. 30 seconds pass by, as she finally grabs her right breast with her right hand.
"Flip me over." Irimi said, as I complied. Irimi lines up her entrance with my shaft, as I insert it inside her. Irimi lets out a soft whimper as we lock eyes.
"Need time to adjust?" I said, wondering, as she wiggled her hips around.
"Almost…There, got it." Irimi said, calmly, as I give out three thrusts. Irimi pants heavily, as she thrusts her pelvis against mine twice, before proceeding to bite into my right shoulder. Blood seeps out of the fresh bitemarks that Irimi left behind, as she wrapped her legs around my waist.
"I really missed this." Irimi said, as I softly caress her left cheek.
"Being intimate with one another?" I said, wondering, as she nodded her head yes, before kissing my pectoral muscles. Irimi then places her hands on my shoulders as we picked up the pace on our thrusting.
"Isaac." Irimi said.
"Yeah, Irimi?" I said.
"I'm about to come again." Irimi said, whimpering, as tears streamed down my face.
"Same." I said, as we rolled each other over. Irimi is sitting on my crotch, as she spoke.
"Isaac…I LOVE YOUUUUUUUUUUUU!" Irimi said, as she let out a joyous scream once her juices leak out of her vagina. I let out a loud gasp, as I ejaculate into the condom. Irimi kisses my lips to stifle our screams, as she grips my right hand with her left hand. Irimi pulls her head back, as we are panting heavily. Irimi then kisses my chest, before placing her head on it. I wrap my arms around her waist as I look at her.
"I love you too, Irimi." I said, as I smiled, while she deactivates her Kakugan and smiled.

Ward 20, Irimi's Place
We're back in Irimi's bedroom after rinsing ourselves off. I'm wearing my gray boxers, and Irimi is wearing her black panties.
"So, umm, I noticed the back of your legs just now." Irimi said, noting the cauterized wounds on my legs.
"It was during Rushima. I wore the Arata armor a little too long, and it started to bite into my legs. Had to use my Quinque to close the wounds." I said, exhaling, as I look at her.
"Would you have been interested in kids if I didn't choose Eto?" I said, wondering.
"I would've waited at least a couple of years before deciding to start a family." Irimi said, as she pressed her breasts onto my chest.
"Say, did you ever date anyone else while I was married?" I said, curious.
"Koma and Yomo." Irimi said, as I had a dumbfounded look on my face.
"Really?" I said, surprised.
"Yep. They didn't have your touch, though." Irimi said, as she made circles with her right index finger on my right pectoral muscle.
"How long do you think I should keep this from my daughters?" I said, wondering.
"At least a few months. They're still reeling from what happened to Eto, and with you moving on quickly, I mean, it will be upsetting for them." Irimi said, as I had a somber look on my face.
"I'm aware. But don't they want me to be happy?" I said.
"I guess, but it will take time." Irimi said, as she began to rest her eyes.
"Yeah. It will." I said, as we took a nap.

Kaneki is wearing a black t-shirt, white pants, and black socks. He's sleeping in bed. The door opens, as Shio and Rikai enter the room. Shio is wearing a black sweater, blue jeans, and red slippers. Rikai is wearing a zipped black sweater, black jeans, and white slippers. Shio then proceeds to jump onto the bed.
"Good morning!" Shio said, happily, as Kaneki fell out of the bed.
"Whoa!" Kaneki said, flustered, as he looked at Shio and Rika, while rubbing his eyes.
"Wha…?" Kaneki said, groggily, as Rikai chuckled.
"Wakey-Wakey!" Shio said, as he pulled Kaneki up and shoved him out of the room.
"C'mon! C'mon!" Shio said, excited, while Rikai exited the room.
"All right, all right…" Kaneki said, as he adjusted his eyes.
"Ah, he's up." Yusa said, as Kaneki looked at him. Yusa is wearing a black sweater, blue shorts, and green slippers. Kaneki then sees Hirako, Emlia, Yomo, and Asami. Hirako is wearing a white trench coat over a white work shirt, black pants, black leather belt, and black leather shoes. Yomo is wearing a black trench coat over gray sweater, brown pants, brown leather belt, and brown Nike's. Asami is being carried by Yomo. Asami is wearing a blue jacket over a pink sweater, green beanie hat, blue mittens, blue pants, and black Reeboks. Emilia is wearing a blue sweater, blue jeans, pink mittens, and pink Skechers.
"Good morning." Kaneki said, calmly.
"¡Buenos días, Tío Kenny (Good morning, Uncle Kenny)!" Emilia and Asami said, happily, as Kaneki had a surprised look on his face.
"Are these Isaac's daughters?" Kaneki said, wondering, as Hirako nodded his head yes.
"I see." Kaneki said, as he walked towards the staircase and went down.
"Is there any melon bread in this café?" Shio said, wondering, as Kaneki finds himself in the café. Yusa places his right hand on the table bar.
"Spotless." Yusa said, as Kaneki analyzed the environment around him. He then hears a familiar voice.
"Hey. Want coffee?" Touka said, as Kaneki turned to look at her. Touka is wearing a black apron over a red sweater, black pants, and blue Vans. She has purple nail polish on her fingernails. Touka then proceeds to pour a cup of coffee. Kaneki walks over to the table bar, grabs the cup, and drinks it. His eyes widen in delight upon the coffee hitting his tastebuds.
"Just like Mr. Yoshimura's." Kaneki said, in awe, as Touka smiled.
"This place looks nice." Kaneki said, as Yomo walked down the staircase with Asami and Emilia in tow.
"You've been here before." Touka said.
"Oh, right." Kaneki said, embarrassed.
"Quick question. Why was your hair black again?" Touka said, wondering.
"Dr. Shiba said that suppression of RC Cells affects production of melanin or something. Haha." Kaneki said, awkwardly, as Touka perched her elbows on the table bar before placing her head on her hands. Kaneki then looks at the newspaper that's next to him. The headline read:
Reward for CCG Deserter, Now At 5 Billion Yen (around $34.4 Million USD)
Along with the headline was a photo of Kaneki's face. Below the photo was another headline. It read:
Reward for R.J. MacReady, Now At 2 Billion Yen (around $15 Million USD)
"You and Isaac are famous now." Touka said, sarcastically, as Kaneki sat on one of the stools.
"Seems like we're out of a job." Kaneki said, chuckling.
"Dumb fucks." Touka said, as Kaneki took another sip of coffee.
"Wait. Do I call you Kaneki from here on out?" Touka said, wondering.
"Well, Isaac's daughters did call me Uncle Kenny, so…" Kaneki said, as he smiled. Touka then walks out of the table bar and approaches him. Touka smiles, as she then punches Kaneki in the face. Three teeth fall out of his mouth, as Yomo, Emilia, and Asami look on in shock, while Kaneki falls flat on his back.
"Ah…" Touka said, calmly, as she smiled.
"That felt really good!" Touka said, satisfied.
"Why did Tía Touka hit Tío Kenny, Great Uncle Yomo?" Emilia said, as Yomo looked at her.
"Uh…it's complicated." Yomo said, awkwardly.
"Oh. Hey, Yomo." Touka said, as she looked at him.
"Just got word from Tsukiyama. Everybody's ready." Yomo said, as he pulled Kaneki up.
"Thanks, Yomo." Kaneki said, calmly, as Touka put on a dark green jacket.

Ward 20, Outside Café :re
Kaneki is wearing a black jacket over a white sweater, white jeans, black leather belt, white eyepatch (for his left eye), and black Puma sneakers. He, Yomo, Touka, Emilia, and Asami are outside as Touka locks the entrance to the café. Kaneki then hears a familiar voice.
"Hey, Kaneki." The voice said, as Kaneki turned to see where the voice came from. His eyes widen in shock upon seeing Koma, Irimi, and I standing in front of him, as we stand behind my black 2010 Dodge Charger. I'm wearing a black leather jacket over a gray sweater, washed out black jeans, black leather belt, black rim glasses, and black Converse. Irimi is wearing a purple jacket over a white sweater, black pants, and blue Vans. She also has black nail polish on her fingernails. Koma is wearing a red sweater, blue jeans, black leather belt, and black Perry Ellis sneakers.
"You like you've seen a ghost, Ken." Koma said, as Irimi then smacks him in the back of the head.
"Ow! What was that for?!" Koma said, annoyed.
"Sorry. A bit peeved that we had the same thought." Irimi said, as I chuckled.
"¡Papí (Daddy)!" Emilia said, as she ran towards me. I then kneel and hug Emilia.
"Te extrañé mucho a ti y a Asami.(I missed you and Asami so much)." I said, as I smiled.
"You and Asami are coming home with me today." I said, as Emilia squealed in joy.
"Guys." Kaneki said, as Irimi, Koma, and I look at him.
"How did you guys…?" Kaneki said, as I spoke.
"They got ambushed at Route V14 by Arima and Squad Zero. They lost most of their crews, but managed to escape unharmed, thanks to a certain someone. They then showed up outside my apartment to stay for the night." I said, recollecting.
"I see." Kaneki said, somberly.
"Look, what happened to Mr. Yoshimura was tragic, but because of your actions, his first two employees are still kicking." Koma said, offering assurance.
"So, you coming to help us out wasn't for nothing." Irimi said, calmly.
"Look, Kaneki. I know you're upset about my decision to join Aogiri, but I had a good reason for it." I said, as Kaneki looked at me.
"Arima and Eto already told me most of the details before they died. It will take some time, but I'm willing to help you and your daughters out." Kaneki said, as a somber smile emerged from his face.
It's like Anteiku again… Kaneki thought, as we hear another voice.
"Can I join in?" Nishio said, chuckling, as he leaned on Touka's right shoulder. Nishio is wearing a light blue coat over a yellow sweater, brown pants, black leather belt, brown rim glasses, and black Skechers.
"Nishio…" Kaneki said, surprised, as Touka shoved Nishio off.
"I asked one of Banjou's buddies to keep eyes on our hostage." Nishio said, as I opened the driver's seat door to my Charger and got inside. Irimi follows and takes the front passenger seat. Kaneki and Touka then get into the back, with Asami and Emilia in tow. Nishio, Yomo, and Koma then get into a blue 2015 Toyota Corolla, as we drove off to our next destination.
In my car, Kaneki speaks.
"Isaac." Kaneki said, as I looked at him through the interior mirror.
"What is it?" I said, wondering.
"When did you meet Eto?" Kaneki said, curious.
"11/20/11." I said, as I brought him up to speed with everything that occurred from ONS to now.

Me, Kaneki, Touka, Yomo, Irimi, Koma, Nishio, Emilia, and Asami enter inside.
"S, A, A, S, SS, SS, S, S, S, SS+, SS, SS, SS…I could be an SCI if I take 'em all out." Ship said, quietly.
"Quit keeping tabs, Shio." Yusa said, as Tsukiyama approached me and Kaneki.
"Uh, Tsukiyama. Where's Banjou, Takizawa, and Hinami?" Touka said, wondering.
"They're bringing the lady investigator over here in about an hour." Tsukiyama said.
"Well. Kaneki, Isaac. Water under the bridge?" Tsukiyama said, as I shook his right hand with my mine.
"Yeah." I said, calmly.
"Buenos días, Tío Zapato (Good morning, Uncle Shoe)." Emilia and Asami said, simultaneously, as Tsukiyama looked at them.
"Bonjour, my little Hydrangeas." Tsukiyama said, calmly, as he waved at them.
"HEY!" Naki shouted, angrily, as Kaneki shoves me out of the way, and blocks Naki's green Kokaku blade with his arms. I have an alarmed look on my face, as Naki has his Kakugan activated.
"¡Papí (Daddy)!" Emilia and Asami said, alarmed, as I see Kaneki back up 5 feet.
"Bro, what the hell are you doing?!" Shousei said, alarmed.
"This asshole is the One-Eyed King!?" Naki said, angrily, as Irimi ran towards me.
"Isaac!" Irimi said, as I got up.
"Estoy bien (I'm fine), Irimi." I said, reassuring her, as Naki spoke.
"You murdered Yamori…now I'm gonna FUCKING KILL YOU!" Naki said, angrily, as Ayato spoke.
"Naki, this isn't about that!" Ayato said, trying to defuse the situation.
"Fuck off, Ayato! Isaac promised me a chance at revenge!" Naki said, as Kaneki had a surprised look on his face.
"Long story." I said, as I looked at Ayato.
"You, Touka, and Yoko need to cover your ears." I said, as all 3 complied. I tap my chest twice to activate APII. The black armor engulfs my body, as I ran towards Naki and gripped his throat. Naki has an alarmed look on his face, as I lift him up by his neck.
"Big Bro Naki!" Hooguro said, alarmed, as Naki stared into my helmet's pale green eyes.
"Naki. It's nice to see you again." I said, calmly, as Naki's feet dangled off the ground.
"I know I promised you a chance at revenge against Kaneki…" I said, calmly, as the eyes on my helmet then change to vibrant yellow.
"BUT YOU NEED TO UNDERSTAND THAT YOU AND KANEKI ARE ON THE SAME BOAT AS EVERYBODY ELSE AT THE MOMENT!" I screamed, angrily, as Naki winced, causing him to deactivate his Kakugan.
"Hey, put Big Bro down now!" Shousei said, alarmed, as I looked at him and Hooguro, and then at Naki again.
"Quick question, Naki. What were you doing on the night of 06/09/15?" I said, menacingly.
"S-s-stealing bodies from that operation you were involved in." Naki said, nervously, as I gritted my teeth in anger.
"Among those bodies that you and your buddies stole after the operation was an investigator that went by the name of First Class Investigator Ginshi Shirazu, a Quinx. He was one of my closest friends." I said, angrily, as Kaneki had a shocked look on his face.
Shirazu? Kaneki thought, in shock, as I spoke.
"Tatara told me that you handed Shirazu's body over to Dr. Kano. What the fuck did he promise you if you gave him Shirazu's body?" I said, calmly.
"He would use the body to bring Gagi and Guge back to life." Naki said, scared, as I chuckled. I then tighten my grip around Naki's neck, as his face began to turn blue, while Miza had a horrified look on her face and Hooguro and Shousei had angered looks on their faces.
"Even Jason would look down on you for the complete and utter stupidity you made in believing that psychotic fuck's words." I said, angrily.
"Consider your chance at revenge NULL AND VOID. How about this? I snap your neck and take over as head honcho of the White Suits? What do you say? Fair trade? Shousei and Hooguro will get a leader 10, no, 20 times smarter than you, while you hang out with the rest of your brothers up in Heaven." I said, as I smiled.
"You better put him the fuck down this instant!" Hooguro said, angrily, as he and Shousei activate their Kakugan.
"Or what? I can kill him and you two within the blink of an eye. Just ask Toshiro, or Jin, or Daisuke, or Goro, or Hiroshi, or the other 47 members of your group that I slaughtered back at Rushima." I said, angrily, as Naki's eyes widen in alarm.
"That's right, Naki. All 52 of your brothers slaughtered, by my hand, because of you stealing my best friend's corpse!" I said, angrily, as Miza started to walk towards me.
"Isaac, stop! They didn't know! They weren't aware that the Q they stole was your friend's!" Miza said, pleading, as I looked at her.
"Why the fuck didn't you, Naki, or his henchmen go after Torso after he held my other best friend, ASCI Tooru Mutsuki, hostage?" I said, angrily, as Kaneki's eyes widen in alarm.
"I told you already! Tatara would've murdered us if we tried to intervene!" Miza said, as Emilia looked on, worried.
"Fine. I believe you. I'll let him down..." I said, coldly, as Miza sighed in relief.
"If you can tell me why you've given a fuck about him lately. You got till the count of 3. 1." I said, coldly, as Miza's eyes widen in alarm.
"Isaac!" Miza said, horrified.

"Hey, Miza. Where do babies come from?" Naki said, wondering, as Miza had an alarmed look on her face. Naki is wearing a white suit over a black flannel shirt, white pants, black leather belt, and black Massimo Matteo leather shoes. Miza is wearing a blue poncho over a white sweater, blue pants, and red Skechers.
"Where'd that come from?!" Miza said, flustered.
"Uh…I was talking to Hooguro and Shousei about it." Naki said, calmly, as Miza's cheeks were flushed red.
"Uh…see, it's…very difficult…to...explain…now...I…I…I…" Miza said, embarrassed, as she kept picturing the image of me and Eto making love at the bathhouse.
I'm a grown woman…I'm a mature, grown woman…I'm a very mature, grown woman…Miza thought, as she spoke.
"D-D-D-D-Do you want me to show you?" Miza said, as blood heavily dripped down her nose.
"Sweet! I'll go get Shousei and Hooguro! The four of us can do it together!" Naki said, excited, as he turned around and ran.
"Wait! Too advanced!" Miza said, flustered.

"Naki…Today's Valentine's Day." Miza said, calmly, as Naki looked at her. Miza is wearing an orange poncho over a red sweater, blue jeans, and purple Champions. Naki is wearing a white suit over a black flannel shirt, white pants, black leather belt, and black Massimo Matteo leather shoes.
"Vantelin?" Naki said, puzzled.
"That's what you apply for aching joints." Miza said, as she pulls out a giant shaped heart from underneath her sweater.
"Valentine's Day is when a girl gives a guy that she likes chocolate. This isn't chocolate. It's just hardened blood." Miza said, as her cheeks blushed crimson.
"You can have it, out of obligation." Miza said, as she looked away from Naki. Naki's eyes widen in alarm, as he speaks.
"A GOBLIN NATION!? WHY THE FUCK WOULD I WANT THAT?!" Naki said, horrified, as Miza's eyes widen in frustration. She then proceeds to deliver an uppercut with her right hand, causing Naki to fly 10 feet in the air.
"WHY THE FUCK WOULD I GIVE YOU SOMETHING LIKE THAT!?" Miza shouted, angrily, as Naki fell on his back.

"2 and a half." I said, coldly.
"Isaac, please!" Miza said, pleading.
"You kill him and you're dead!" Hooguro said, angrily.
"I like to see you try." I said, coldly.

Ward 18, Undisclosed Apartment
Miza is wearing a blue sweater, black shorts, and white socks. She is wrapped in a purple blanket, as she opens her eyes. Her eyes widen in alarm upon seeing Naki looking at her. Naki is wearing a white suit over a black flannel shirt, white pants, black leather belt, and black Massimo Matteo leather shoes.
"Oh, it's just you Naki." Miza said, groggily, as Naki entered the room.
"Miza. Have you heard of something called Smaschs?" Naki said, wondering.
"Smaschs? Uh, what is that?" Miza said, wondering, as she rubbed her eyes, while Naki sat next to her in crisscross position.
"A red monster called Manta kills you while you're asleep." Naki said, as Miza had a confused look on her face.
Manta Ray? Miza thought, as Naki spoke.
"I was thinking, let's fuck him up." Naki said, calmly.
"Sure…" Miza said, calmly.
If I get to sleep next to Naki, I'll be okay with it, Miza thought.

Ward 18, Undisclosed Apartment
"Let's go, Hooguro." Shousei said, as he carried a giant red sack over his left shoulder. Shousei is wearing a Santa costume, while Hooguro is wearing a reindeer costume.
"Right behind you. You got the sugar, I got the sigur rós." Hooguro said, as they walked into the room that Naki and Miza were in.
"MERRY CHRISTMAS!" Hooguro said, in joy.
"MERRY BROOOOOOOOOOO!" Shousei said, loudly, as he and Hooguro then see Naki and Miza asleep, with Miza wrapped around Naki's white suit. Miza wakes up to look at Shousei and Hooguro.
"Hey…" Miza said, quietly.
"Oh. Sorry. Didn't know you two were making babies." Shousei said, as he and Hooguro walked out of the room.
"Kick-ass present." Hooguro said, impressed, as Miza had an alarmed look on her face.
"Wait! Naki said something about Smaschs!" Miza said, clarifying.
01/19/16, 9:55 AM
Ward 1, Undisclosed Facility
"Isaac, stop!" Kaneki said, worried, as everybody looked on.
"I'm not letting go until Miza tells me why the hell I should let Naki live." I said, as the eyes on my helmet glowed an immensely bright yellow.
"ISAAC, I'M IN LOVE WITH NAKI!" Miza shouted, desperate, as everybody around her had baffled looks on their faces. I then look at her for 5 seconds and then at Naki as well, before looking at her again.
"I find that reason to be EXTREMELY skeptical." I said, coldly, before looking at Naki.
"3." I said, coldly.
"ISAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAC!" Miza said, as tears began to stream down her face.
"¿Papí (Daddy)?" Emilia said, as my eyes widen in alarm. I then turn my head around to look at Emilia, who is 3 feet away from me. Emilia looks very worried.
"¿Estás enojado con Tío Naki y Tía Miza (Are you angry with Uncle Naki and Aunt Miza)?" Emilia said, worried. The eye color on my helmet then changes from vibrant yellow to pale green. I look at Naki and let go of him. He lands on his butt and has a terrified look on his face. He then frantically crawls backwards towards Miza, as he gets behind her while Hooguro and Shousei deactivate their Kakugan. I then tap my chest twice to deactivate APII, as Ayato, Touka, and Yomo take their hands off their ears.
"I'm sorry, Naki. Hey, Miza." I said, upset.
Great! Now I got to add Miza to the list of amends! I thought, saddened, as Miza spoke.
"Hey, Isaac. We heard about Eto." Miza said, as she wiped her tears.
"Y-Y-Yeah, man. Sorry about what happened to Eto." Naki said, nervously.
"How are you and your daughters holding up?" Miza said, wondering.
"Emilia can barely keep it together when her mom is mentioned and other than the videos and photos I have on my phone, Asami's not gonna remember what Eto looked or sounded like." I said, somberly.
"As for me, I relapsed, OD'd, and got clean. Today is the day I finally regain custody of my daughters." I said, as Miza had a worried look on her face.
"Don't worry. Ayato brought me back to my senses." I said, as Miza looked at Ayato, who nodded his head yes.
"I'm just trying to keep it together at this point." I said, as Hooguro spoke.
"No shit. Your attitude's not the only problem." Hooguro said, as he looked at Hirako and Squad Zero.
"Why the fuck are the Doves here?!" Hooguro said, alarmed, as Shousei cracked his right ring finger.
"We're just here to protect Kaneki." Hirako said, stoically.
"Exactly." Shio said.
"As part of the previous One-Eyed King's wishes." Yusa said.
"They helped us out at Cochlea." Kaneki said, calmly.
"It's what Eto and Arima requested. Sin malditas excepciones (No fucking exceptions)." I said, calmly.
"Understood?" I said, as Naki let out a frustrated sigh.
"Hey. Dumbasses." Kurona said, as we looked at Kurona.
"I don't give a fuck who started what. I only have a few associates to work with." Kurona said, as she looked at me and Nishio.
"Can I ask what this meeting's even about? Where's the tea?" Kurona said, sarcastically.
"I'm only helping you guys so I can get my hands on Kano. Simple as that." Kurona said, as Nishio adjusted his glasses, while Irimi walked to where I was.
"Quick question, Naki. Now that Aogiri's wiped out, what are you and your remaining members going to do while fighting CCG?" Kurona said, wondering, as Naki had an insulted look on his face.
"We were fine on our own without Aogiri! Got it?!" Naki said, angrily, as Miza punched him in the right shoulder.
"Ow!" Naki said, as Miza spoke.
"Stop shouting." Miza said, as she looked at me.
"Isaac? Aren't you going to introduce me to Kaneki?" Miza said.
"Right." I said, as I looked at Kaneki.
"Kaneki. This is Miza. She's the leader of The Blades on Ward 18, and my daughters' babysitter." I said, as Miza spoke.
"Did you really have to add that last part?" Miza said, embarrassed, as she looked at Kaneki.
"A friend of yours saved me, Naki, and his cohorts on Rushima." Miza said, as Tsukiyama smiled.
"I'm curious to know what your group is planning to do, so I can decide whether to join you or leave." Miza said, as Naki glared at her.

Ward 1, Undisclosed Highway
I'm driving my black 2010 Dodge Charger. Irimi, Kaneki, Touka, Emilia, and Asami are inside as well.
"So, that's everything that happened over the last 3 and a half years while you were Haise Sasaki." I said.
"Wow, I didn't realize that your dad was a part of Aogiri." Kaneki said, surprised.
"And with all 3 gone, you and I have to pick up the pieces and finish what they started." I said, calmly.
"You know, when Eto told me why she and Arima chose me, it wasn't for personal reasons. It was for the sake of Ghoulkind. If nobody takes the mantle of the OEK, every Ghoul will go extinct, while humans live on." Kaneki said, as I signaled right.
"Eto said that the world is like an egg. For something new to be born, the world must be shattered to pieces. And only I can pull that off, with you by my side." Kaneki said.
"So, in other words, you are the chosen one after you killed Arima. A bit cliché, much?" I said, wondering.
"It's what your wife wanted. And now I got to do this, for your daughters' sake." Kaneki said, as he looked at Emilia and Asami.
01/19/16, 9:59 AM
Ward 1, Undisclosed Facility
"I'm carrying out the wishes of my predecessor. To create a world where Ghouls and humans can co-exist." Kaneki said, as everybody looked at him with various reactions to their faces. Silence fills the room for 10 seconds, until Kurona begins to laugh.
"HAHAHA! Don't make me laugh, 'brother'. Did Kano's RC Cells scramble your brain? How are you gonna pull that off?" Kurona said, mockingly.
"Well, he did spend 30 days taking a nap. So…" I said, as I shrugged my shoulders.
"Through dialogue." Kaneki said, calmly, as Kurona had an insulted look on her face.
"Are you fucking insane?!" Kurona said, angrily.
"You be surprised at what talking things out can do, like you, Nashiro, Takizawa, and I." I said, as Kurona looked at me.
"How?" Kurona said, wondering.
"05/01/1969. Fred Rogers, the host of Mister Rogers' Neighborhood, was given 10 minutes to speak in front of the U.S. Senate. Nixon was planning to cut the funding for the network that was running Rogers' show. Rogers wasn't well known yet, but he was able to convince the Senate to not go through with their plan, after he reminded them about how shows like his can help children by working things out through dialogue rather than violence. Self-awareness, self-management, and relationship management, all-in-one." I said.
"That's just one guy convincing 100 old people! I'm talking about him convincing 7-8 billion people, human or Ghoul, to coexist!" Kurona said, countering, as she looked at Kaneki.
"'Ghouls must be eradicated.' 'We need to kill and consume humans to live.' Our hostile relationship hasn't changed because we never bothered trying to talk things out, just as Isaac said. We can understand each other. Me being originally human is proof of that." Kaneki said, calmly, as he removed his eyepatch before activating his left Kakugan.
"I know for sure they won't agree to it. So…" Kaneki said, as the doors behind Yomo start to open. Over 100 Ghouls start walking into the room, as everyone looked on, surprised.
"We're bringing them to the table, by force." Kaneki said, as the Ghoul in front of me and Kaneki looked at us, before turning around to look at the rest of the Ghouls. The Ghoul is 5'11, has green eyes, and black hair (mohawk), with scars around his cheeks. The Ghoul is also wearing a purple trench coat over a yellow sweater, blue jeans, and green Reeboks.
"Fuka." Kaneki said, calmly.
"On your knees, boys." Fuka said, as he and the rest of the Ghouls that came through the doors kneeled in front of me and Kaneki.
"Who are these guys?" Kurona said, wondering.
"The inmates that Kaneki freed from Cochlea." Ayato said, as I looked at him.
"All of them?" I said, surprised.
"Yup." Ayato said, as Kaneki spoke.
"I hereby announce the formation of an anti-human organization group. We will be known as Goat." Kaneki said, calmly.
"What's the first objective, One-Eyed King?" I said, as Kaneki looked at me.
"Talking to the CCG." Kaneki said, confidently.
"¡Larga vida al rey (Long live the king)!" Emilia said, happily, as I carried Emilia.
"Yeah. Long live the king." I said, calmly, as Kaneki looked at me, calmly.

Ward 1, CCG HQ, 47th Floor, Conference Room 3
Number of Days Sober: 37
Number of People I've Made Amends With: 6
Matsuri, Tanakamaru, Kuroiwa, Juuzou, and Ui are sitting at the table, as they are about to begin the latest report following the aftermath of the 3rd Cochlea Prison Break.
Matsuri is wearing a white suit with black vertical stripes over a white work shirt and red tie, gray pants, and brown leather shoes. Ui is wearing a blue vest with orange vertical stripes over a white work shirt and black tie, black pants, and black leather shoes. Tanakamaru is wearing a beige suit over a white work shirt and black tie, blue pants, and black leather shoes, with a cast on his left hand. Kuroiwa is wearing a black suit over a white work shirt and blue tie, black pants, and black leather shoes. Juuzou is wearing a buttoned up black t-shirt with red/yellow suspenders, black pants, and red slippers. Ui has a somber look on his face.
Over 145 Ghouls escaped Cochlea, including Yotsume and The Priest. Not only that, but we also lost over 80 workers at Cochlea that night. And it occurred while some of us went to Rushima to take down Aogiri Tree once and for all, Ui thought, as he looks at Matsuri, who is disheveled beyond repair and mumbling out gibberish dialogue.
We lost Arima, Hoji, & Marude. Kiyoko's career is basically over. Akira went AWOL. Sasaki and Hirako betrayed all of us. And Isaac just walked up to me and said he quit. Took his and Akira's Quinques, as well. The look he had on his face when he spoke to me. What did Isaac see at Rushima that caused him to quit? Ui thought, worried, as Juuzou opened a bag of Lay's Regular Flavored chips to eat.
Then there's the death of the 3rd Chairman AND the Bureau Director, Yoshitoki Washu. God, nobody saw that coming. Bodies everywhere at the Chairman's home and claims that Yoshitoki started eating everybody around him. Things have gotten so bad, that we had to bring Iwao out of retirement to help us out, Ui thought, as he sees Kuroiwa sighing.
"Tanakamaru, what's the status on Kiyoko?" Ui said, wondering, as Tanakamaru rubbed his chin with his right hand.
"She's fine, but the doctors have said that the damage she took from the One-Eyed King have forced her into early retirement." Tanakamaru said, as Ui sighed.
"What do we do about...you know?" Ui said, as he looked at Matsuri, who was dazed.
"Huh? What happened?" Matsuri said, confused.
"Investigator Washu. Uh, The Chairman's…?" Ui said, as Matsuri covered his face before exhaling.
"Right. The recommendation." Matsuri said, as he looked at the letter. It read:
I recommend that Souta Furuta of the Washu Branch Family, be picked as the new Bureau Director of the CCG.
-CCG General Chairman, Tsuneyoshi Washu
"I'm still looking into it." Matsuri said, depressed.
"Isn't Furuta that bland investigator who was Kijima's protégé?" Ui said, as Matsuri nodded his head yes.
"To think that an investigator with zero achievements to his name be promoted four ranks is quite unprecedented, Interim Chief Washu." Tanakamaru said, flustered, as Matsuri blinked weakly.
Matsuri is Yoshitoki's eldest son and an SCI. He SHOULD take over as Bureau Director. But then again, the late Chairman's will can't be ignored. Plus, the state that Matsuri is in right now, it's just too much for him to bear, Ui thought, unaware that the 3rd Chairman's will was forged. The five of them then hear footsteps quickly approaching, as they hear the door in front of them open. It is Furuta. He's wearing a black trench coat, over a white work shirt and black bow tie, black pants, black gloves, and black leather shoes. He has a confident look on his face.
"Sorry I'm late!" Furuta said, happily as he raised his hands up in the air.
Well, the next phase of my masterplan was going to break Mr. Gutierrez, but since he quit weeks in advance, I'll have to improvise, Furuta thought, displeased, as he spoke.
"I was busy fielding questions to the press about Sasaki and Squad Zero." Furuta said, chuckling.
"Just let Internal Affairs handle them." Ui said, sighing, as Furuta sat in front of Matsuri.
Rank 1 Investigator Nimura Furuta. No, Souta Furuta Washu, is attending this SCI meeting today. Other than the fact that he was ASCI's Kijima's protégé, nobody knows this guy's story. That's why this meeting is to determine just who this guy is. To think that the Washu had multiple branch families, that is something, Ui thought, as Furuta had a worried look on his face.
"Rank 1 Furuta. Did you notice anything off about ASCI Haise Sasaki while you guys worked on the One-Eyed Owl case?" Ui said, wondering, as Furuta looked at him.
"ASCI—" Furuta said, before Ui interrupted.
"He's no longer an investigator." Ui said.
"Oh, sorry. HS did engage in illegal activities, such as unwarranted searches or coercive interrogations while we were pursuing Sen Takatsuki and R.J. MacReady." Furuta said, recollecting.
"I took those actions as his determination to solve that case. But I can't say for sure." Furuta said, calmly, as Ui and Tanakamaru looked at him, before Ui turned his head to look at Matsuri.
"SCI Washu. We've lost all trace of HS. He's rebranded himself as the OEK and is most likely cooperating with MacReady. They're looking to bring in all remaining Aogiri members and Cochlea detainees under their roof to tear down CCG." Ui said, calmly.
"I see." Matsuri said, dazed.
Doesn't matter if Matsuri or Furuta take over as Bureau Director. The Washu Family is finished. No, the CCG is finished, Ui thought, somberly.
"I'm also here to discuss the recent attacks by the Clowns." Furuta said, as he looked at the door.
"Itori." Furuta said, as the door opened. Itori walks into the room. She's wearing a blue corset dress and open toed blue heels. Her fingernails and toenails are painted black. Tanakamaru and Kuroiwa look smitten by Itori, while Juuzou looks confused.
"You're all familiar with my secretary, everyone." Furuta said, as Itori hands each SCI a brown file containing information on the recent Clown attacks.
"As you're well aware, the recent Clown attack on Ward 7 a few days ago resulted in only a 10% eradication rate, once they fled." Furuta said, as they look inside the files.
"Yeah, they have been getting more strategic in their attacks and cause the investigators to work overtime." Ui said, as he looked at the profiles of No Face, Porpora, and Big Sister.
"I don't get it." Juuzou said, confused, as Kuroiwa looked at Juuzou's file.
"It's upside down." Kuroiwa said.
"Oh." Juuzou said, as he flipped the file right side up.
"It's the analysis of all the Clowns' attacks." Furuta said, as he pulled out a green marker, and began to write on the white board near the windows.
"I've investigated their attack pattern. It seemed random upon first sight." Furuta said, as he drew a clown on the white board, while placing a map of Tokyo below it. He then draws two lines (one going left and the other right).
"They've split into two and attacked the opposite ends of all 23 Wards just to keep us at bay. Group A and Group B. They coordinate and attack at the same time. Following that, they either flee, or split up into even smaller groups to attack other spots." Furuta said, calmly.
Investigator Kijima did say that Furuta was great ay analyzing details, Ui thought, as Furuta spoke.
"Out of precaution, they don't bother hitting the same spot twice." Furuta said, as Tanakamaru placed his elbows on the table.
"In conclusion, Furuta-boy, they'll attack Wards 9 and 18 next, correct?" Tanakamaru said, wondering.
"Nope. Group C will hit CCG HQ next." Furuta said, calmly, as the SCIs (except Matsuri) had alarmed looks on their faces.
"Group C?" Ui said, alarmed.
"Remember. Groups A and B will have thinned out by then. Group C will be the primary force. After a thorough analysis on past Clown attacks, once they split up, their main target is CCG HQ here." Furuta said, as he circled Ward 1 with the marker.
"A shield that's spread too thin, once our operatives are spread all over the 23 Wards." Ui said.
"Correct. We're basically vulnerable everywhere." Furuta said, as he looked at the SCIs and Itori.
"Then shouldn't our main priority for now be—" Tanakamaru said, as Furuta interrupted.
"That's what they want us to think." Furuta said, as Ui looked at Tanakamaru.
"He's right. Clowns will start attacking the Wards again if we do that." Ui said, as Tanakamaru exhaled loudly through his nose.
"THEN WHAT CAN WE DO?!" Tanakamaru shouted, frustrated.
"It's Yoshitoki all over again, especially after Operation Clown Sweep. SCI Tanakamaru and SCI Kuroiwa are familiar with what occurred 15 years earlier. Leading the operation was SCI Reynaldo Gutierrez, who assigned Chief Washu to defend the wards, and SCI Arima to defend the main office." Furuta said.
"A shame we can't get his son, Isaac, to help us out, since his resignation." Tanakamaru said, somberly.
"Yes. A shame. He would've made a great defender of the main office. Which is why I recommend the second strongest person to defend the main office." Furuta said, as he looked at Juuzou, who just finished eating his bag of chips.
"SCI Suzuya." Furuta said, confidently, as Juuzou looked at him.
"Huh?" Juuzou said, puzzled.
"You will be our Kishou Arima." Furuta said, as the rest of the SCIs looked at Juuzou.
"You're having him, and his squad defend HQ?" Tanakamaru said, wondering.
That would help us out immensely. Suzuya is basically on Isaac's level, Ui thought, as Ui spoke.
"Suzuya." Ui said, as Juuzou spoke.
"If it's what's recommended, then I'll do it." Juuzou said, as Matsuri spoke.
"Hold on…" Matsuri said, alarmed.
"I still outrank Furuta by 4 ranks. Is this a fucking joke?" Matsuri said, angered.
"I'm still Interim Bureau Director." Matsuri said, protesting.
"I'm sorry, SCI Matsuri, but you are in no state to speak, on account of you being absent for the last 6 days in a row. And emphasis on the word 'Interim.'" Ui said.
"A Washu relative in the mainline Washu family has served as Interim BD, not extended." Matsuri said, as he glared at Furuta.
For fuck's sake, Ui. You're not a good judge of character, Matsuri thought, as he gritted his teeth.
"Ui, are you sure about not letting Washu speak?" Tanakamaru said, curious.
"This situation with the Clowns is about to explode beyond anything this organization has faced. And you already know that you it's a 4-1 vote to have Juuzou be chosen to defend HQ. Why else do you think I brought Kuroiwa back into our group and promoted Suzuya Squad to S3 while Matsuri was absent?" Ui said, as Matsuri let out a somber sigh.
"The decision's been made. I'll take full responsibility to have Furuta's proposal plan greenlit." Ui said, as Furuta smiled, while Matsuri looked defeated.

Ward 1, CCG HQ, 47th Floor
"Investigator Ui." Kuramoto said, as Ui turned to face him. Kuramoto is wearing a black suit over a blue work shirt, green tie, black pants, brown leather belt, and black leather shoes.
"Yes, Itou?" Ui said, wondering.
"Did Hirako say anything to you?" Kuramoto said, somberly.
"No." Ui said, bluntly, as Kuramoto sighed.
"I could never tell what Hirako was thinking. When he asked me to take over for his squad, I thought he trusted me. Now, he's a wanted fugitive?! What he and Sasaki did at Cochlea?! It just… WHY?!" Kuramoto said, frustrated.
"What's done is done, Itou. Don't take this shit personally, lest you lose another important figure in your life." Ui said, as he turned around and walked.
"Hirako and Sasaki are traitors. End of story." Ui said, calmly.
"Ui." Kuramoto said.
"What now, Itou?" Ui said, frustrated.
"The day Nakarai and I took Aura to the hospital to see his aunt, Kiyoko, we saw Isaac. Shaved his beard off and had red hair. He was in tears while speaking to Kiyoko. When I asked him why he quit the CCG, he told me to ask you. Did something happen while you guys were at Rushima?" Kuramoto said, as Ui turned to look at him.
"All Isaac would tell me were, in his words, 'screw this place. It's not worth it anymore.' He just walked out and took his and Akira's Quinques with him." Ui said, as Kuramoto fully opened his eyes in shock.
"Really?" Kuramoto said, surprised.
"Isaac had this look on him. Felt like he was guilty or something. From what Project Q told me, Isaac had a hysterical meltdown while at Rushima and tried to blow his brains out." Ui said, somberly.
"Fuck." Kuramoto said, stunned.
"Mutsuki stopped Isaac at the last second. Urie tried to get Isaac tested for a psych evaluation when we got back from Rushima, but we've heard no response from Isaac until now, after what you told me." Ui said, as he sighed.
I may have lost some important people in my life, but compared to what Isaac's been through…Isaac, just what are you hiding from us? Ui thought, wondering.
I lost a mentor that I respected. A superior that I trusted with my life. A protégé who was the love of my life. And a lackey that worked his ass off to get to know me. Who did Isaac lose during his time here at CCG? What was he fighting for? What am I fighting for? Ui thought, as he then spotted Furuta.
"SCI Ui. Thank for standing up for me. But I'm not sure if I can handle the seat of IBD, like Matsuri can." Furuta said, pessimistic.
"Ignore him. The rest of the SCIs agreed with your analysis. Keep your head up. Don't let him bring you down." Ui said, as he smiled at Furuta.
Hook, line, and sinker, Furuta thought, as a small smile emerged from his face.
Chapter 124 complete.
Author's Notes:
This was an adaptation of Chapters 99, 100, 103, and 104 of TG: re, the Valentine's Day Omake from TG: re Volume 6, the Christmas Omake from TG: re Volume 9, the Four-Person Party Omake from TG: re Volume 12, and Season 4, Episode 5 of the anime version.
Kaneki, Naki, Isaac, Irimi, Miza, Furuta, Matsuri, and Ui take the spotlight for Chapter 124.
The CS/CLI arc reimagining has commenced.
Isaac and Irimi are officially back together after a night of love making, as they attempt to keep it a secret from his daughters. Emilia will eventually find out about it (just need to figure out which chapter, though).
Kaneki and Naki's bad blood hits a temporary standstill, after Isaac berates Naki for what he and his White Suit colleagues did to Shirazu's body, resulting in Isaac forcing Miza to publicly acknowledge her relationship with Naki (I used the omakes as flashback sequences to show how Miza fell in love with Naki, despite his enormous stupidity).
And even then, Isaac was still on the verge of killing Naki, until Emilia brought him back to his senses. As for Furuta, he and Itori begin their plan to bring the CCG down from within, as they wow the SCIs (except Matsuri) with their presentation, unknowingly playing into their hands. The seeds have been planted for Ui and Furuta's dynamic, as Ui's descent into corruption begins.
Onward to Chapter 125. But first, post-credit scene.
Post-Credit Scene:
01/27/16, 10:25 AM
Ward 1, CCG HQ, 46th Floor, Matsuri's Office
Matsuri is looking at the city of Tokyo from his window, as he turns around to look at Urie. Urie is wearing a purple suit over a black work shirt, yellow tie, purple pants, black leather belt, and black leather shoes.
"Urie. Do you remember what you told me 2 months ago? That you're my dog? Are you still that dog who's willing to kill one of your former superiors?" Matsuri said, calmly.
"Sir. You don't have to ask me that. All you need to do is give me the order." Urie said, as shivers ran down Matsuri's back upon hearing Urie's surprising response.
"Another thing. Your grandfather's letter. This is just my opinion. There's no way Rank 1 Furuta can be Bureau Chief. You do." Urie said, as Matsuri's cheeks were flushed pink.
"I haven't told anyone else this yet. But after today, I have concluded that the massacre of Washu Family wasn't planned by HS or even MacReady." Matsuri said, cautious, as he walked towards Urie and whispered into his right ear.
"The most likely suspect is Rank 1 Furuta. I can't prove it just yet, but I need more evidence to prove that it was him." Matsuri whispered, as Urie looked at him.
"Keep your eyes peeled on Furuta, Urie." Matsuri said, calmly, as Urie bowed his head in front of Matsuri.
"Very well, sir." Urie said, calmly.
Furuta? Is that run-of-the-mill investigator even capable of pulling off such a misdeed? Then again, I'll tend to make use of this. Matsuri, you'll be my dog very soon, Urie thought, as he turned around and exited Matsuri's office. As soon as the door closes, Matsuri strips down to his underwear, looks at the window that has the view of Tokyo, and flexes his muscles.
"YEAH!" Matsuri shouted, in joy, before sighing in relief.
Urie, I tend to be vulnerable when I'm with you. I'm starting to fucking love you more than I thought, Matsuri thought, surprised.

Furuta is wearing a black suit over a white work shirt, small black bow tie, black pants, black leather belt, black leather shoes, and red gloves. He is walking in the snow-covered alley, as he spots Kaneki. Kaneki is wearing a black trench coat over a black sweater, blue jeans, brown leather belt, blue gloves, left white eyepatch, and black Puma sneakers.
"Oh, ASCI Sasaki. Are you here to kill me?" Furuta said, wondering.
"Good evening, Former Rank 1 Furuta." Kaneki said, as he smiled.
