IMPORTANT A/N: FOR THE SAKE OF MAINTAINING A CONTINUOUS AND SENSIBLE PLOT IN A REALISTIC TIME FRAME, I REWROTE THE VERY LAST PART OF CHAPTER 4. FOR THOSE WHO HAVE ALREADY READ THE PRE-UPDATE VERSION, RATHER THAN KANEKI BEING CAUGHT BY A DOVE, THE NEW ENDING IS AS FOLLOWS.

Kaneki flew out into the open, eyes wildly flashing in every direction. He landed on a nearby building and inhaled the breeze.

I can't find her...

Try as he might, the wind outside had snatched up the path, and Eto was nowhere to be seen.

She's gone...

And no matter how much he wanted to, Kaneki Ken could not hold back his tears.

Sorry for the all caps at the beginning, just making sure this is seen as it is a pretty significant change to that chapter. The continuation should be posted up shortly.
