KANEKI REBORN


CHAPTER TWO


"Eyepatch"


*Tokyo, 20th Ward*

It was morning, the bright light of the sun present in the room. Kaneki had rented an apartment somewhere near Anteiku as he decided that he would visit the café more frequently. Kaneki got up from his bed and proceeded to his small kitchen where he would start making some coffee. Once Kaneki had finished drinking his morning coffee he thought he should go and stay at Anteiku for awhile, as he did not have anything else to do. Normally he would decide to go and kill some people, but he wanted to wait until his mask was finished.

Kaneki got dressed in some casual clothes and proceeded to exit his apartment. Once he was outside he looked around his surroundings, the apartment he rented was really cheap and low-class. '... I'm gonna have to buy a more fancy room for myself in the future... Maybe a hotel?' Thought Kaneki as he began walking towards Anteiku. After walking a few minutes, Kaneki could see Anteiku in the distance, his apartment really was close to the café.

The White-Haired Ghoul walked up the staircase leading to the entrance of Anteiku, they were currently open. Kaneki entered and looked around, he saw Enji Koma behind the counter, a teenage girl with dark straight hair taking the order of a customer, and a purple-haired girl reading a book. "Welcome to Anteiku! Wait... You again?" Greeted Koma as he then asked a question.

"Yeah, is there a problem with me visiting again?" Asked Kaneki as he stared Koma straight in the eyes. Koma smiled and replied "Ahaha, not at all! Please enjoy your stay." Replied Koma. Kaneki nodded and took a seat on an empty table. He ordered a cup of coffee from Koma and started reading one of the books he bought recently, it was a book created by Takatsuki Sen. Kaneki was entertained by the way that this author wrote her books, although he didn't know why. He felt as if he could relate to this author, albeit never meeting her before.

As Kaneki was reading he could sense that he was being stalked by a pair of eyes, the same ones that belonged to who he knew was called the Binge-Eater. Kaneki glanced at the Ghoul looking at him for a few moments and this caused her to look away. 'Binge-Eater... Perhaps we could have a little bit of fun...' Thought Kaneki Ominously as he then stood up and walked towards the purple-haired Ghoul.

The Binge-Eater was slightly surprised to see that the Ghoul she had been looking at every now and then was now approaching her. "May I have a seat?" Asked the boy with white hair politely. She hesitantly nodded causing the boy to sit down on the opposite side of her table.

"Nice weather isn't it?" Asked the boy with a smile. "U-Um, yeah... I suppose..." Replied the Binge-Eater innocently, trying to maintain her innocent girl cover. She soon saw that the boy was looking at her with a smirk, she couldn't tell if he was planning something perverted. "U-Umm, do you need something?" Asked the Binge-Eater. "No... But perhaps you need something...?" Replied the boy as he then asked the same question. "W-What do you mean?" Asked the Binge-Eater. "Well you see, I happened to notice you staring at me every now and then... And I couldn't help but get a bit bothered by it..." Replied the boy.

After hearing this the girl blushed and quickly replied "I-I-I-I'm sorry! I didn't mean to disturb you or anything! I was just glancing at you because I noticed we were reading the same book!" she then showed him the book she was reading, it was the same one he was reading, made by Takatsuki Sen.

'So... Possible identical Kagune and same reading tastes... I could get along with this girl.' Thought Kaneki. "Ah! Well it's no problem then, I'll be returning to my seat then." Said Kaneki as he stood up. The girl nodded and watched as the boy with white hair returned to his table.

'... He looks delicious...' Thought the Binge-Eater.


On a park somewhere in the 20th Ward, a beautiful girl with long brown hair worn down. She was waiting for one of her friends to arrive as they had an important job. After a few minutes of waiting the man she had been waiting for had arrived, this man was also known as The 13th Ward's Jason.

"Ahh... Took you long enough." Said the girl as she then got up from her seat at a bench. "It still confuses me to this day... How the hell did you end up being a fucking girl..." Uttered Yamori as he put his hands in his pockets. "I never said I wasn't a girl did I?" Asked the girl as she crossed her arms. "Yeah... But as lantern you sure as hell look like a guy." Replied Yamori. "Well whatever, I've got a clue as to where this Ghoul is residing. Let's hurry and get there." Said the girl as she then started heading towards the apartment of the Ghoul she and Jason were looking for.

'This Lantern... What could she be planning for the Ghoul? I sure as hell know why I want to meet him... Hehehe...' Thought Yamori as he was walking with Lantern towards the apartment of a certain Ghoul. It only took a few more minutes before the two Ghouls were in front of the Apartment of the Ghoul they were looking for.

"I don't smell anyone inside... He's probably out." Said Lantern as she sniffed the door. "Tch, I don't want to wait for any longer than an hour in there." Stated Yamori Impatiently. "Jeez you need to be more patient, otherwise you wouldn't really look like a gentleman would you?" Said Lantern Honestly. Yamori shrugged as if he didn't care about appearances.

Yamori soon kicked the door open making a loud noise, but luckily for them nobody seemed to hear it. Yamori and Lantern entered the apartment and closed the door, Lantern was looking around for any signs of food, but she couldn't find any. While Yamori simply sat at the sofa bored. "Are you seriously just gonna sit there while we wait?" Asked Lantern slightly annoyed. "Yeah, so? I've got nothing else to do here... Remember I'm only here to try and recruit this guy, as ordered by my superiors." Replied Yamori Honestly. "Hoh? Is that really all? I'm sure you have some other plans for him..." Said Lantern Suspiciously. "Hmm, maybe." Replied Yamori as he cracked his finger.


Kaneki had finished all of his coffee, he then proceeded to exit Anteiku and return to his Apartment. But as he walked down the staircase he was greeted by a familiar face. "Uta? What are you doing here?" Asked Kaneki Curiously. "Ah! I knew you'd be here, so you took my suggestion after all." Said Uta as he took out a plastic bag. "Reason I'm here is because your mask is done." Stated Uta as he gave the plastic bag to Kaneki. Kaneki smiled as he looked inside the plastic bag, once he saw his mask he smirked.

"Hehehe... It's perfect... Thank you, Uta." Thanked Kaneki as he bowed his head down. "No problem, although as the price for making this mask... I'd like to have the honor of giving you your new alias." Said Uta Excitedly. Kaneki nodded in anticipation.

Uta closed his eyes and rain suddenly poured down on the land. After a few seconds, Uta opened his eyes and said.

"Eyepatch."


Kaneki had received his mask and his new alias, and now he could hunt. 'Ahh... I'll just head back to my Apartment and get dressed.' Thought Kaneki as his Apartment Building was now in his line of sight. Kaneki arrived and walked up the staircase, once he arrived at his door he noticed something suspicious.

'It's unlocked... And I can smell two Ghouls inside, well... Time to have some fun.' Thought Kaneki as he opened the plastic bag in his hands and grabbed his mask. His mask resembled a leather gimp mask along with an eyepatch, it bears a lipless mouth with large gnashing teeth. Kaneki smiled as he then put his mask on and got ready to enter his room.

Once Kaneki entered the room he immediately found himself under attack by a female Ghoul with a Bikaku Type Kagune. Kaneki released four of his tentacles and blocked the attack, Kaneki soon kicked the door behind him to close it and prevent them from being spotted. "Wow! You really are strong!" Complimented the Female as she proceeded to jab at Kaneki with her Kagune. Kaneki however was dodging effortlessly, he then jumped behind the female and kicked her to down to the floor with one foot. On the floor she used her Kagune to destroy the ceiling of the Room, Kaneki blocked the falling debris with his four tentacles and this caused the female to think she had an opening, in which she would have had one, had Kaneki not been holding back four more tentacles. As her Bikaku Kagune was about to penetrate Kaneki's stomach four other Tentacles released and blocked the Bikaku Kagune. "Wha-" Tried to say the Female before Kaneki used his Kagune to throw the female out of his Apartment. She was sent flying outside.

Kaneki retracted four of his tentacles as he soon blocked the Kagune of another Ghoul. "Hahahaha! I'm impressed! You beat Lantern like she was nothing!" Complimented the Ghoul. "You... You're the 13th Wards Jason aren't you?" Asked Kaneki Curiously. "Heh! Yeah that's right!" Replied Jason as he used his Kagune to try and attack from multiple different angles, but Kaneki was able to block all of his attempts. "HAHAHAHA! YOU'RE STRONG ALRIGHT! YES! YES! LET ME TAKE SOMETHING FROM YOU!" Shouted Jason Crazily as he continued attacking with his Kagune. Kaneki blocked his recent attempts and dashed forward quickly and punched Jason in his stomach, this made Jason wince in slight pain, he responded by smashing the area Kaneki was in with his Kagune, but Kaneki was able to dodge. Due to this action by Jason the floor fell apart, Kaneki quickly jumped up towards the rooftop using the hole that was caused by the female Ghoul. Jason however screamed in anger as he fell along with the floor.

On the rooftop Kaneki looked down at the rubble beneath him and looked on with disappointment. 'I expected more from an S-Rated Ghoul...' Thought Kaneki as he quickly dodged another attack from the Female Ghoul who had jumped towards him from behind with her Kagune. "I have to say I am quite curious as to why you want to kill me... I didn't even know that Ghouls knew about me already, let alone the famed Jason and Lantern..." Said Kaneki as he stared at the beautiful female, she was beautiful in his eyes, he'd give her that at the very least. "I happened to spot you during your escape from that CCG facility, and let's just say I got interested..." Said Lantern as she smiled at him. "Hoh? In what way?" Asked Kaneki as he smirked beneath his mask. "You looked so delicious and pretty strong too... I'm here to eat you while Jason over there is here to have some fun and possibly recruit you into Aogiri." Replied Lantern. "Quite contradicting causes for the both of you... If you eat me, Jason wont have his fun and he wont be able to recruit me... But if he recruits me, you don't get a meal." Said Kaneki amused as he crossed his arms.

Lantern looked like she was going to say something else before both she and Kaneki heard sirens not too far from their location. Kaneki noticed she looked slightly disappointed and he knew why, the CCG were on their way. 'Hmm... Maybe I can form a truce with these two... That would make things a lot easier.' Thought Kaneki as he smirked. "Hey, Lantern!" Called Kaneki. Lantern looked at him with a questioning look. "What is it? Make it quick the CCG are on their way, and I'd hate to go up against Him." Responded Lantern. "How about we form a temporary truce? It doesn't seem like you're a member of Aogiri and I would like to try out working with other Ghouls for once..." Offered Kaneki curious to see if such a bland excuse for a truce would work. "What's in it for me?" Asked Lantern uninterested. "You seemed pretty interested in getting a taste of me... And I wouldn't mind working with a pretty girl, together we could definitely get ourselves tons of meals wouldn't you agree? I am quite interested in killing Humans and Ghouls for fun..." Replied Kaneki making the offer tempting for the Female Serial Killer.

The Sirens were getting louder every second, it would only be no more than 3 minutes before the CCG arrived. Jason overheard their conversation from below, he had to admit he was pretty interested as he and this boy seemed pretty similar. Jason quickly jumped upwards and landed on the rooftop with the White-Haired Ghoul and Lantern. Kaneki looked at Jason cautiously until Jason spoke up. "I heard your offer... I'll accept a temporary truce, just to see how good of a team we three could make..." Said Jason as he removed his mask. "Name's Yakumo Oomori, call me Yamori..." Introduced Yamori. Kaneki smirked as he removed his mask to mirror the action. "Kaneki Ken, just Kaneki is fine..." Introduced Kaneki with a smirk, both of the White-Haired Ghouls shook each others hands while staring at each other with grins. Once their handshake was separated, Kaneki looked at Lantern. "Well? What's your answer?" Asked Kaneki as he put his mask on, which Yamori did as well.

Lantern looked behind her and she could see the sirens lights reflecting off of some buildings, they were close. Lantern sighed and said "Fine, I'm in... Uruka Minami." Introduced Minami as she approached Kaneki and kissed him on the cheek. Kaneki was shocked at her action and blushed slightly, he had never been kissed by a girl before. "Hmm? Looks like I already found a soft side..." Said Minami Teasingly. "It's time to go, the CCG are almost here." Warned Yamori. Minami then put on a thin mask but it covered her face, this mask looked like an incomplete version of her real Pumpkin mask. "Where do we go... Boss?" Asked Yamori as he and Minami looked at Kaneki. "First thing's first..." Said Kaneki as he released Eight of his tentacles and jumped upwards as he then smashed the apartment building. Minami and Yamori were able to jump down before the building totally collapsed.

Yamori had to admit that Kaneki had some balls and great power. Kaneki landed in front of his two new Allies. "Follow me, I have an idea where we can stay temporarily." Said Kaneki as he began heading towards a familiar café, with Lantern and Jason following him.


A few CCG Soldiers and two Doves had arrived at the scene, there was nothing but the rubble that was once an Apartment Building. The Soldiers began inspecting the area and put up some barriers. One of the Doves was looking at the scene with anger present in his eyes. The other Dove noticed this and began approaching him.

"Amon... We can't let events like this affect us or our work, there is no need to worry there were no victims in this case." Reassured the White-Haired Dove. "T-Thank you, Mado... It's just... I don't understand these Ghouls at all! Why must they spread this much destruction?!" Thanked Amon before loosing slight control of his emotions. Mado grabbed Amon's shoulders and said "The World is a messed up place... And Ghouls are the ones making it worse, which is why it's up to us to help Humanity and eradicate the Ghouls... For the sake of the World..." Amon nodded at this with a confident smile.

"We'll find who did this... And kill them." Said Mado Determined.


Kaneki was headed towards Anteiku, he figured that the staff there would not be too pleased at the sudden intrusion, but it was a necessary action. 'We're gonna have to take refuge at Anteiku for a few hours...' Thought Kaneki as he was running towards the café with two S-Rated Ghouls behind him.

"Where exactly are we headed?" Asked Minami Curiously. "Anteiku..." Replied Kaneki Honestly. This shocked both of the Ghouls behind him, but Yamori soon formed an amused grin on his face. "Quite bold of you Kaneki... Do you think they'd be happy with the problem we'd be bringing to them?" Asked Yamori with a grin. Kaneki grinned as he heard this question. "Definitely not... But it's not like they have a choice but to let us stay for a few hours..." Replied Kaneki Menacingly. Both Minami and Yamori could feel the absolute power within his voice, they knew he wasn't joking when he said that they didn't have a choice.

Kaneki smiled as he could see Anteiku not too far away from him, soon enough he and the other S-Rated Ghouls with him were walking up the staircase of Anteiku. Yamori had his hands in his pockets, Kaneki removed his mask and kept it inside his pants, while Minami had also kept her mask and was getting excited at what was about to happen. Yamori kicked the door open, shocking the Ghouls that were inside drinking coffee or chatting with each other.

Touka, Irimi and Koma were shocked to see Jason of the 13th Ward enter the café while the other Ghouls were filled with fear. Everyone was quite and just watched Jason as he found an empty table and moved towards it, as he was no longer blocking the door two other Ghouls were seen walking into the café as well. Irimi and Koma were surprised that the Young Ghoul they had once spoken too was with the 13th Wards Jason. However it didn't seem that anybody recognized Minami.

"Hey! You can't just kick the door open like that and expect to be able to sit down on a table!" Shouted Touka in anger as she got in front of Yamori before he could sit down on the empty table. Yamori looked at the girl with an amused look. "Hehehe... HAHAHAHA! You think you can order me around? ME?!" Asked Yamori as he grabbed the girl and threw her across the room. Koma and Irimi got mad at what Yamori did and they were about to act. "I wouldn't do anything rash... If I were you..." Warned Kaneki as he looked at the two Ghouls. "Y-You! Little pu-" Insulted Irimi before she had a tail-like Kagune pointed at her throat, it came from Minami.

This caused most of the Ghouls to look at the girl in shock, they recognized this Kagune, it was Lantern. "L-Lantern?!" Uttered one of the Ghouls. Yamori was getting bored so he then took a seat at the table he chose, with Kaneki and Minami sitting down as well. Koma sighed in defeat as he went to go check up on Touka, while Irimi was getting pissed off, but she knew she wouldn't stand a chance against Lantern, Jason and Kaneki at the same time. 'Damn! If the Manager were here...' Thought Irimi.

Kaneki noticed that the girl he spoke to earlier was still here, the Binge-Eater. Yamori noticed that Kaneki was looking at somebody and he looked at the direction Kaneki was looking, and he found somebody he detested. "Rize... HAHAHAHA!" Laughed Yamori as he stood up and approached her. She looked at him with fear in her eyes. "You still haven't replaced my toy..." Said Yamori as he gave Rize a menacing glare. Her look of fear turned into a look of amusement. "Heh! And you expect me to replace that pathetic object?" Asked Rize. This made Yamori angry as he released his Kagune. Irimi and Koma rushed to stop Yamori before Kaneki released his three of his tentacles and penetrated the stomachs of both Ghouls. Irimi and Koma screamed in pain as they were thrown towards the main desk by Kaneki. Rize saw this and was surprised at the familiar Kagune. "His Kagune looks similar to yours doesn't it?" Said Yamori, causing Rize to look at him. "I recognized it myself when I first saw it... But it had a different smell and had much more power than yours..." Added Yamori as he then smashed Rize's table with his Kagune, causing Rize to jump behind him. "I have no time to play with you..." Stated Rize as she exited the café quickly.

Yamori roared in anger but soon stopped. The other Ghouls in the café were to scared to try and leave Anteiku right now. "Well... Since we have nothing to do for now, how about eating these Ghouls?" Suggested Minami as her eyes turned into the eyes of a Ghoul. Yamori grinned at the suggestion and used his Kagune to kill the two Ghouls that were beside the Table of Rize. "I like that idea..." Uttered Yamori as he began devouring the Ghouls he had killed. The other Ghouls that saw this panicked and tried to ran towards the exit, but Kaneki had released eight of his tentacles and killed each Ghoul with one tentacle, there were eight Ghouls in total after all.

Irimi and Koma looked in horror as their customers were killed and devoured, but right now they couldn't move because of their wounds. Touka closed her eyes in disgust and cried a bit. Irimi comforted her while Koma sweared he would kill Kaneki and the other two with him.

After a few hours, Yamori, Minami and Kaneki had finished waiting and chatting. "Well! Time to go, thank you for your service... Anteiku." Said Kaneki as he left with the other two Ghouls. Anteiku had become an enemy and he would have to live with that.

Touka had gotten up with a sad face and started cleaning along with Koma. Irimi was behind the counter calling the Manager. "Damn them! They killed everyone..." Uttered Touka in anger. "Heh... They made a pretty big mess..." Added Koma.


*Tokyo, Unknown*

"Have you heard of him? The Eyepatch?" Asked a Ghoul with white hair and a red mask that covers the only his mouth. "Hmm? No, I haven't... Who is he?" Replied a girl with bandages covering her entire body. "I don't know much... But Yamori reported that he would try to recruit him into Aogiri, apparently he thinks this Eyepatch is at the very least SS-Rated..." Said the Ghoul Honestly. "Interesting... Did you get his real name?" Asked the girl while moving her legs up and down. "I believe it was Kaneki Ken..." Replied the Ghoul.

"Kaneki Ken... Huh..." Uttered the girl.


THE END


I hope you guys enjoyed this chapter! I also apologize for the long wait, there are quite a few things going on within my school life and my Gaming Life, So I won't be setting a schedule for the chapters to come. Tell me what you think of the Truce that Jason, Kaneki and Minami had and do you think they make a good team?

Also, I'd like to see if you guys can guess who the girl in the end is, although it is pretty damn obvious. Please do not hesitate to give criticism as it only improves the story if it is sensible of course. I'd also like to officially say that Kaneki will have a small harem. Anyway, that's all I have to say for now, Have a nice day.


NEXT TIME ON KANEKI REBORN!

"Don't act like you know me... I'll kill you."

"Kaneki Ken, right?"

"He beat Noro?!"

"Don't tell me you're joining Aogiri... Pumpkin Head."
