A/N: Hey guys! Sorry for the wait! I was thought the chapter was to short and was thinking of ways to lengthen it. Now, if you're reading this chapter, REVIEW PLEASE! Even flames are wanted! I can't fix mistakes without constructive criticism, and I need to know what I am doing right and should continue doing. Thank you!
P.S. Shout-out to Burke23, who is starting a Tokyo Ghoul story, check it out!
Chapter 5 –French 101
Aelin stiffened as she stepped out of Kami and saw Kaneki and Frenchie Bastard sitting at a table together. Aelin spat curses under her breath, but walked off, ignoring her friend for now.
Aelin entered her apartment, striding quickly towards the bathroom. Glaring at her reflection, she fixed her hair into a tight bun, tying a black bandanna around her neck and tossing a black police style hat on her head. Satisfied with her look, she went to her bedroom, dressing in loose silver pants and a similar silver top, with a black leather jacket and black leather fingerless gloves to top the look off. Aelin opened the bottom drawer of her dresser, taking out a foxlike mask that covered the eyes and face above the nose. Strapping the mask onto her face, Aelin adjusted her bandanna once more to loosely cover her mouth and nose, and nodded to herself in satisfaction at her disguise.
Kaneki's POV
Kaneki flinched away from the behemoth attacking him as he mentally berated himself for trusting Tsukiyama-san, and for ignoring Alli-chan's warning. His vision swimming, Kaneki collapsed to the ground as the drugs inside him kicked in. Directing a glare at the on looking audience, the half-ghoul waited for the final blow. Instead, he scrambled backwards as his assailant's corpse toppled toward him, mouth gaping wide upon seeing the ghoul who had saved his life. A shout rose from the crowd at the plot twist, all staring at the twin white bikaku kagune impaled through the chest of the attacking creature. The source of the kagune was a ghoul, dressed in silver and black leather, with a distinctive fox mask. A few uneasy mutterings started up at the sight of the S rated ghoul, Kitsune. Kitsune chuckled darkly at the attention, raising their silky voice to be heard throughout the restaurant.
"Well hello there. I'm afraid that today's dessert has been cancelled. I'll be taking this treat to-go, so I will take my leave. Happy dining, I bid you all adieu."
Tsukiyama lunged forward, anxious to grab his meal before it was taken from him, but Kitsune nimbly fled the scene, Kaneki in tow.
Aelin's POV
Aelin heaved the limp Kaneki over her shoulder, watching her surroundings carefully for anyone idiotic enough to tail her. Satisfied that they were alone, Aelin once more took up a rapid pace, slipping through the back door of Anteiku and setting Kaneki on a chair, leaving the café in a hurry as the sound of footsteps echoed throughout the building. Finally allowing herself to relax, the ghoul slipped her mask and bandanna into her bag, then let herself into Hide's place to crash for the night, ignoring the slight protests of hunger her stomach put up.
A/N: What I imagine Kitsune's mask to look like. Btw, NOT mine in any way or form. listing/225847228/light-trickster-fox-white-sumi-e-mask?ref=shop_home_active_14
