"Seijuro!"  screams the bluenette. His body is drenched in the cold, damp rain,
echoing through the dark tainted gray sky. His entire body is rigid, his hands
were grasping tightly on the weapon dangling from his belt.
The redhead ghoul turns, grinning happily to himself. His desire was empowering
his mind like it was about to explode. The heterochromatic eyes activate as he
wets his moistened lips.
Yes. More. Enrage. Despise me. Hate me. Kill me. Give me all your hatred,
Kuroko Tetsuya. 
"Tetsuya, I’m so glad you've come. I was getting impatient whether or not
you'll appear and yet," his arms are wide open. He was sitting on a once golden
chair, now drenched and painted with bright red.
The color of blood.
Human's blood.
The ghoul investigators lay all around the floor, bodies piling up in a
mountain. Blood can be seen everywhere. "Here you are. Ah~ Your face is making
my entire body hard. I want to see more of that."
"Bullshit, Seijuro." Tetsuya replies, sheathing his weapons from his belt. The
quinquesgrew into small two sword-size weapon. A black sword on his left and a
white sword on the right-- Hikari and Kage.The signature weapons Special Class
Ghoul Investigator Kuroko Tetsuya has. It glows a painful red as it once was a
ghoul’s kakugan. Akashi's face fills with delight as his eyes land on the
weapon he has been dying to see.
How does it feel to be pierced by Tetsuya's sword?
Just that thought excites the Kiseki leader even more.
"You've deceived me. You said to me that you're not going to kill anymore. You
said you would abandon the Kiseki no Sedai!!!
I've trusted you because you're the only person with whom I cannot lie to. The
first time you said that you were interested in me, I felt that I was needed.
Not just a weapon of mass destruction but as a person! A person being alive!
But no,” he pauses, eyes filled with grief “You're just like the others.
I was a fool for believing those sugar-coated words that left your lips... Was
all of it just a lie?! A fantasy?! Answer me, Akashi Seijuro!”
Tetsuya could tell whose body is from who with their uniforms and physical
appearances despite being torn, chopped and jutted out (some organs are
scattered all around). Kuroko growls at this and walks carefully to not damage
anything. Kiyoshi Teppei, Izuki Shun, Mitobe Ryuunosuke, Aida Riko,  Furihata
Kouki, Koganei-san, Kagami Taiga.The bluenette’s heart fills with disgust as to
how Akashi could be amused with a scenery as such. Ghouls doesn’t have hearts,
Kuroko reminds himself. He doesn’t want to make the same mistake again.
"Ahhh~ Tetsuya, my beloved Tetsuya." Akashi purrs.
Tetsuya shouts, "Don't call me like that, Emperor-san."
With that, the redhead’s entire being radiates with excitement, his five senses
working better than ever. Akashi wants more. More. He chuckles, somewhat
enjoying Tetsuya's foul mood. "So we’re back with the nicknames, I see. That is
such a shame, Tetsuya."
Tetsuya heaves a long sigh. He closes his eyes, wonders if Akashi could be able
to read his mind. Not that he wanted to anyway. "Let's go back to the main
point, Emperor-san. Why-“ he pauses and looks around, keeping all the
unnecessary emotions bottled up,”- did you killmy subordinates?"
"Why?" Akashi asks rhetorically "Because they are important to Tetsuya. And
Tetsuya shouldn't be hanging out nor should be close with such filthy humans
like them. You should only be close to me. You are MINE after all."
Tetsuya’s face darkens as the starless sky that night. Why would he if all his
friends and family were killed by the person whom he gave his heart to?
“Drip”
Deceived. Pain. Killed. Izuki-senpai. Kagami-kun. Hyuga-senpai. Kiyoshi-senpai.
Riko-san. My family. Nigou... Okaa-san... Otou-san... Help... I'm sorry...
Seijuro...
Mama... Papa... Nigou...
Kagami-kun....
Everyone....
Seijuro...
I'll kill you... I'll kill you... I'll kill you...
 
I'll kill you!!!!
 
“Drip”
 
"I didn't come here to hear your undying love. You're an S class ghoul and that
means you’re a threat to everyone.”  His grip on his weapons tightens. Tetsuya
knows what he must do.
What should have been done before this calamity had happened.
“And I have a request for you."
"Oh my, what did you want to ask of me, Mr. Kuroko Tetsuya-kun?" Akashi asks,
obviously knowing what would happen. The bluenette steps back, dipping his body
ever so slightly, slowly forming his stance. The stance which earned him the
name “
Stealth Shadow of the CCG”.
"This is a pity indeed, Emperor-san. Hikari and Kage would be very pleased
about this." He looks at his reflection on the dual blades. His eyes being as
sharp as ever. Blood and murder evident in it.
"As for loving you wholeheartedly..." His body is rigid. He is ready.
Ready to kill.
To kill the person he had loved the most.
"Please die by my hands."
 
 
“Drop”
***** Case 1 *****
Chapter Summary
     Vanilla milkshakes, Rakuzan ward, Red and Cerulean
Chapter Notes
     This is unbeta-ed so I apologize for any mistakes.
Two months before...
 
The Teiko ward (ward number one) was busy. People in white suits flowing as
every step they take, sweeping away the entire floor. It's pearly-white
wallpaper reverberating the echoes in which them were either arguing, hanging
out doing mundane talks or the planning and tapping pens on tables with their
superiors about missions about the monsters. A golden crest carved above the
center. A golden dove pecking in its beak was a branch with leaves- emblazoned.
Below were carved letters as much as people with very accurate eye vision or
not, The Commission Countermeasure of Ghouls. CCG.
Parading it proudly whereas anyone (even normal people) could see that they
have power. They have authority to wipe those monsters from the face of the
Earth. Mostly only in Japan.
 
"Police has sighted a gruesome body of a man whose limbs were torn apart, his
internal organs jutted outside, scattered beside its lifeless body. The foul
and awful stench gave away its location. The body was located at an abandoned
factory. Police had trouble finding for any of the body's belongings for them
to identify until a brown satchel has been recovered exactly ten centimeters
away from the body.
Sakagawa Gero. Age forty-five has been missing for two days since. His office
workers confirmed that Sakagawa-san left the vicinity of the office in his
exact time to go home and told them that he would be going to the Rakuzan ward
to buy a pastry for his children. The said man wasn't informed that a group of
ghouls whom calling themselves as The Uncrowned Kings were roaming around
Rakuzan ward and soon after the body of Sakagawa-san has been flund. His wife
and three children were now in despair as the father of the family died in a
very unexpected death.
The company that Sakagawa-San's working promised the family that they will
compensate, willing to support the family until they've finally moved on. The
location of the funeral is at-" the television turned off as a brunette woman
pursed her lips, hands on hips. She was wearing the white uniform same as what
others wear but a plate was etched in her white suit identifying her as Rank1
Bureau Investigator. Aida Riko. On top of it all was a navy blue blouse and
black pencil skirt and brown-strapped wedge. The look on her face was serious
and analytical. The others, with each unique color-schemed hairs - a mix of
blacks, browns, red and sky blue were looking at her. Some are even doing their
respective works like cleaning off their swords, eating, or just scanning
through their file folder on the table. The words "Seirin" were written in red
marque. They were dealing with trouble. A very hard one to be exact.
"All right listen up!" She shouted. All of them gazed through her direction.
She nodded, then started to write in the white board in front of her. The
names, clothes, numbers and masks all jumbled up- written neatly in black-
colored pen. Names that were capitalized: ARACHNE, GREY, RAIJU, OUJIHIME, AND
BAKA-MUSCLE were written boldly. Emphasizing its importance on her speech.
"We all know that the Uncrowned Kings were composed of these five ghouls whose
only reason is to devour every human to enter the Rakuzan ward vicinity. Their
leader, Arachne, is probably the one who ordered to tear Sakagawa-san's body
into pieces, probably the works of Raiju and Baka Muscle.
Oujihime and Grey are only the spectators and the eyes alerting if ever the
doves are nearby." Tapping her metal rod - pointing towards her talentedsketch
of a building with shapes having difficulty to decipher. The members nodded, in
the back of their mind was that they were simply trying to elaborate her
drawing skills that were...not so good (they all agreed that if they simply
told Riko about the truth, she might pull them into something very
inappropriate to do. Plus they value their life, thank you very much). Thank
God for them that they could tolerate her or else they wouldn't bother one or
even an inch of their time wasting their asses until it becomes sore just by
sitting - listening to her "one hell weeks of a meeting briefing." But
nevertheless, they were grateful for Riko. She's the only one who can manage
to tame and tolerate the Seirin squad for their individual competency.
Especially their two unique members.
If only she wasn't a very high ranking personnel in the CCG and somewhat a
"special someone" of their squad leader.
Said person with black spectacles adjusted his glasses. The tip of the pen
continuously tapping in table spoke. "These shitheads are really the bastards
of the organizations. Always seeks trouble whenever they like it and
personally, every investigators who were involved in these cases are dead. If
someone ever escapes then pray tell they're survivors and will live to tell the
tale."
At the mention of 'dead', Furihata Kouki, a brunette whose eyes were the
epitome of cowardice (still, they questioned on why would a scaredy-cat like
him could pass the ghoul investigation exam, let alone for Riko in letting him
join the Seirin squad. Sometimes they could't tell what was on her mind) and
also a rank two ghoul in-training shuddered. The bespectacled captain, Hyuuga
Junpei rubbed his pinky finger inside his ear like this wasn't their most
scariest mission they'd handled and told the brunette if he was chickening out,
then get out and not join their activities which involved a lot of blood
splatter, slashes, gashes and deaths. Honestly, Hyuga thinks. What the hell is
Riko thinking?
"I-I'm not scared!" Furihata replies, clinging tightly on his pants. His fists
were white. Yeap, definitely scared. "This is going to be my very first mission
as a ghoul investigator. Of course I'm nervous but I can do this, captain."
Assuring Hyuuga that he can do well in his work, he muttered a "whatever" on
Furihata, letting Riko continue. "Don't worry Furihata, you won't be in the
danger zones. That's Kuroko and Taiga's specialty." Gesturing her hands towards
the two odd members of the squad. A dual-toned haired with a size of a
basketball player rather than a eighteen-year old rank two ghoul investigator
filling his stomach on a big pile of paper-wrapped food. Burgers again? Riko
face-palmed. The other one (a year older than Kagami) with a hair hue as the
calm blue sky was playing himself quietly together with a little black and
white colored Siberian puppy. His paws fitted perfectly on the bluenette's
palms as he wagged his tail, enjoying and savoring the moment with his master
and owner. Wait why is Nigou in here?!
"Kuroko-kun! Didn't I told you that Nigou is prohibited while we were
conducting meetings!" The Siberian pup frozed his tail, turning towards the
owner of the voice. Seriously. Why do I have a ridiculous team? Nigou, the pup,
whom have the uncanny resemblance of his owner, woofed - jumped out of Kuroko's
lap and went to his own doghouse courtesy of Hyuuga. Nigou was the squad's own
pup and they are the only one who have a dog as their own member. The Seirin
loves - adores Nigou. Except Kagami. He despise the furball.
"Apologies, Riko-san but Nigou just wanted to play with me. Seeing that we have
a case that most probably have a fifty-fifty chance of surviving." He noted,
touching the three earrings. The giant redhead beside Kuroko was still chewing
his last portion of the fastfood chain delicacy telling the female brunette
that she supposed to be used in them. Whether she should be able to get the
hang of things and Jesus! That was his thirtieth burger since she glanced at
the table before starting this abomination. How could Kagami even not get fat?!
"Ugh! Nevermind. I don't even wanna know. As I was saying, the chances of us
finding the Uncrowned Kings is a slim of ten percent." Riko says dead-panned.
Silence breaks from the room. From their past experiences, no team has ever
succeeded in staying alive while in search for the Kings. They were on the top
list of the CCG's Most Wanted Ghouls. As Hyuuga concluded, no one has ever
survived when they encounter The Kings. Just from the leader's mask name,
Arachne. The investigators have been trapped into its spiderweb, covering them
with its deadly silk as they wait for its predator to kill and eat them. Burp~
goes the mouth of Kagami. "Are you done yet? I'm already fired up in starting
this mission. Finally some useful to do. Oi Kuroko you think I can buy a lot of
burgers at MajiBa if we can find these shittards?"
"Positive. Unless you're still alive that is." Kuroko replied making the
redhead twitch. A little annoyed. This fucker, Kagami thought. The silent
bickering of the two oddball of Seirin calmed Furihata's nerves. He doesn't
know if he can pull a façade of being strong. Could he still be a member of the
Seirin squad despite being the coward that he is? No one knows. Not even Riko
knew but they needed devoted members and Furihata was one of them so there's
that.
Now Hyuuga was annoyed. How dare they interrupt and now starting arguments of
their own while Riko was still talking. They should be taught a lesson. With
the cracking sound of his neck, they knew they were in deep shit. Especially
Kagami and Kuroko. Pulling Hyuuga, he was stopped by the female brunette saying
that it was alright. "Let them do this much," she says staring at the two.
"It's the least we can do. They do have the most difficult task in the squad.
So long as they know if the situation is worse, retreat. I don't want those two
be dead." The raven-haired stiffened, his shoulders calmed. He couldn't help
but agree with her.
It would be a lost for the CCG if they died.
 
 
The Rakuzan ward wasn't what other people call as "sanctuary" - it was
the exact opposite of what the other wards. Stenches of rotting bodies already
in the process of decomposition, the people - ghouls to be exact have irises of
hunger, starvation, and the desire to kill. Mercilessly. Although some humans
pretend that this wasn't a ghoul-infested place, some still lives peacefully.
Shrugging the idea that when they woke up, one of their loved ones are lying
beside them as they're soaked of blood of them. This, was, from the dark depths
of the ward. The business district was something else. But nevertheless the
Rakuzan ward was still one of the most "civilized" to Japan's booming economy.
The business districtbof the ward have lights, infrastructures and shops that
were famous because of their high-class products. One would be the pastries and
food that a certain restaurant offers. Normal people would go through the
dangers and surpassed the boundaries just to try one of their proudly products.
There were other wards too, one of them, have the respect of so many people for
their so perfect-blended coffees. But weren't as famous with the competitive
streak of the Rakuzan ward. After all, what could a teeny coffee shop compete
with with a series of highly in-demand gross profit?
In the darkest parts of Rakuzan ward, a group (more like friends in the same
age gap who've gone EMO because of problems from school, family, love, etc)
were gathered in an apartment that was almost unliveable for normal people.
It's bricked red walls, once perfectly stacked up - now crumbling. Almost as if
to tell that this part of the ward have been left by society and the only thing
covering was a faded cloth and God knows how long it have been hanged in there.
Forever perhaps? Faces covered with hooded jacket. Their only differences were
that each jacket have a unique print designs.
One have a yellow jacket with clouds swirling through a four-legged animal. Its
mouth agape as streaks - lightning bolts - hurled up covering mostly the entire
cloth. Second had a gradient color - a pastel - and a intricate crown
combination: a king and a queen's. A third one didn't have anything, just grey-
colored. The owner mustn't give a fuck about designs and settled on a simple
one. Another one had maroon-colored and checkered jacket on the front while a
large text of MUSCLE IS LIFE. MUSCLE IS POWER. The most distinguishable was the
combination of black and red colored jacket. The design had a spiderweb
covering like it was real and all. A spider drawing as creepy as its sixed-eyed
glowing orbs when light strikes. The arachnid.
"'The Uncrowned Kings strike once again as they sabotage a man in his fifties,
letting him die in the most gruesome way. The CCG says that there would be a
100,000 Yen cash on whoever who could point the whereabouts of these
bloodthirsty beasts. You can call us in the following numbers below this add'
and fuck this crap!" Says the pastel colored jacket. Crumpling the paper in his
hands. The voice was low and mature enough to distinguish it belongs to a man.
"I told you, Mako-chan, that we'll be in the headlines. What's the use of
'having a low profile' hmm?" He added, crossing his hands. A black strand of
hair visible outside from his hood. As if on cue, another one, but his were
more creepy, stepped towards the pastel man. The jacket with a arachne design
produced a laugh (maniacally and gives the cold feeling on anyone who hears it)
grinned. "Just what I wanted, Mibuchi. No matter what method they use, there's
just no way that they can outsmart me.
I want them to thoroughly pushed their resources and time in devising plans and
tactics to catch us and as if they can. Before they can even do a single move,
they're already trapped inside 'my web.' And don't scare yourself. They would
never have a clue on who their enemies is. Humans are only trash and a source
of our hunger consumption. Nothing more than food is the meaning of their
existence in our society." The other members nodded, agreeing what the arachne
dude said was facts. The grey jacket, being the only one visible because of his
hood down. A mixture of black and white forming the color 'grey' was on his
hair. His monochrome orbs - complimenting his hair colour rolled his eyes. His
mind already saying "leave me out of this shit and let me just finish this book
I'm reading" and boy does he have a build. Not skinny, not bulky, just right. A
book had an illustration of a B cup woman wearing only a bunny outfit, posing
in a very seductive way. An erotica book. He was reading rated nineteen and
above only scaring little kids despite his presence. Does he even have one?
"Oh don't mind him. Mayuzumi is just grumpy because he's been reading that
novel in his hands for a week and still couldn't finish it." Snickered the
pastel jacket owner who goes by the name of Mibuchi as what 'Mako-chan'
introduce him. Mayuzumi, the grey-haired one shrugged. Mumbling that if he
wasn't forced to do babysitting a bunch of "brats" he could finish the novel in
two days. "Regardless..." Said Mayuzumi. Closing his book on-holding the story
as he looked through the eyes of Arachne. "Not like I give shits about who I
kill so long as I have my meals thrice a day but I admit we've been on the
doves's radar for quite long.
I could do for those cube meals the twentieth ward gives to ghouls who're in
dire need without killing the innocent." Makoto scowled, refusing the
monochromes proposal saying he would rather be caught by the doves instead of
that offer. The blonde jacket owner agrees with Makoto. "You know
ghouls can't stomach human food. That would only make people be suspicious.
Worst, they might suspect us from being one. Reo-nee I don't wanna be caught by
them." His hands fling towards the bulky arms of Mibuchi causing the hood to be
removed from his head. Mibuchi then caressed the head of the short man -
hushing him that everything will be alright, no one is going to get caught by
the doves. He assures him. Reo's words soothes him lulling him to yawn. Thank
God, Mibuchi thought. The moment Koutaro opens his mouth, it's hard to shut him
up again.
Before Makoto could open up his mouth, something had been threwn to the Muscle
text jacket owner. Everyone looked for the perpetrator but none leaving the
said object (a crumpled piece of paper. Only that the paper was crumpled rushly
and it was new). Makoto ordered Eikichi to pick it up and opened the said
paper. "What does it say?" Asked Koutaro. All four was sweating a lot because
they were aware of who it is. From the signature color of the paper plus the
design - prism - with seven colors striking the design. The cursive
handwriting, each stroke delicately been written with grace. As the note says
one word.
 
                               We are watching.
                                     -KnS
                                        
"Shit." Makoto curses. Tearing the paper in pieces pretending that they didn't
received any. Especially from them. They know. Of course they would. They were
inside their territory. News wouldn't spread if they've chosen another ward.
Let's say in Kirisaki Daichi ward or the Meiko ward. "Sei-chan's really onto
us. I really think we should lie low Mako-chan. If there's one thing I hate
more than the doves, it's Sei-chan and his team." Mibuchi says sending shivers
in his spine when the name Sei-chan left his mouth. Mayuzumi, Eikichi and
Koutaro all nodded, waiting for the response of their leader. Will he succumb
to the threats? Makoto knew they was never a chance when it comes to power.
The Kiseki no Sedai all have it with the exception of their leader too. Such a
strong one with wealth, power and authority. Makoto only greeted his teeth. He
refused to lose. Refused to surrender.
"That Akashi is testing me. I get whatever I want. Even if I will use dirty
tactics."
"Oi Makoto-"
"I get it! We will do what Akashi says. But the fight is just getting started.
Just you wait Akashi. I will make sure you rot in the palm of my hands."
 
===============================================================================
 
 
"Good work, Hyuuga, Izuki, Kiyoshi." Says a raven-haired with eyes tamed like a
cute cat. Perfectly harmless if what Hyuuga and the others would call. They
nodded, passing a stack of documents on their faces. "Koganei. I thought I told
you to put these godforsaken files on top of our desk." Annoyed staggering
himself from carrying the files telling to himself about the ignored
authorities given from the senpais - per se. Kiyoshi just laughed taking his
own stack and carries it away. With his build, height and that powerful hand
grip, no wonder he was called the Iron Heart of the organization.
Koganei replied with his tongue flew open. Mockering the three for being the
busiest rank one special class investigators. "'M gonna kill him." Mumbled
Hyuuga. "Awww don't be mad at him, Hyuuga. Koga's just doing his job." Said the
giant brunette. His hands were already free from the papers whilst the Seirin
leader wasn't. Telling Kiyoshi he wasn't helping anything.
"You shan't keep your chill, take a pill and pay your bill. Oh hey! That
rhymes." The other black-haired with the name of Izuki proudly says like it was
his bestest rhymed joke. They looked towards Izuki. Hyuuga cannot believe that
Izuki was doing rhyming jokes in the middle of the crisis. And the brunette was
lost. Asking the leader if had already paid his bill. Hyuuga groaned.
"Why do I have idiots as best friends?!"
In Kuroko and Kagami's quarters, a pile of documents were already stacked. Sure
that Koganei had delivered them. They knew as special class investigators, both
the redhead and bluenette had a tiring job but tolerating themselves as what
Riko says. They need to do normal paperworks like a normal investigator would.
At the sight, Kuroko could only sigh. These won't be done if I just stare at
it. Might as well get started, thought Kuroko. In one swing, Kuroko sat in a
fetal position, fishing out a pen in his pockets. Started scribbling in the
papers. His best friend was nowhere in sight. He could think of many things
he's doing: eating, eating and more eating. The redhead doesn't seem to be full
no matter how many food he'd consume and the mysteries of Kagami Taiga's
stomach is still out of Kuroko's grasp.
After an hour, Kuroko finally had done progressed. Though half was still left
undone but nevertheless there was progress. He retired from his chair. Telling
himself that it was time for his break.
By break he meant a trip to the Rakuzan ward. People might think he was crazy.
Why barge into a ghoul-infested ward when he knew perfectly well that the place
had ghouls sighted? With his lack of presence (Kuroko thanked his parent's for
this gift he inherited from them) as his advantage, Kuroko could sneak inside
any wards off the ghouls radar. If worse comes to worse, he still have
his weapons in his shoulder bag. He took of his white coat leaving him with
normal and very mundane. A fur-cloth long sleeves, pants and shoes. A perfect
disguise. Walking towards the business district. Kuroko stopped by in a
restaurant. The old Japanese style - with its screened doors. The scent of
chamomile and vanilla wafting from his nose. He knew he was in the right place.
The sign, The Prism, was a very famous restaurant. Despite having a traditional
Japan design, they sell international delicacies. But there was only
one particular that he always buys.
Sliding the door, western chairs and tables and waiters dressed in black vest
and tailcoats greated Kuroko with ease. He knew he was perfectly normal -
removing everything that might give away his identity as a ghoul investigator.
Continuing towards the counter, he was welcomed by familiarity. "Good
Afternoon, Momoi-san." Kuroko politely says at the pink-haired barista. Wearing
the same uniform as the others though the vibe she gives everyone seeing her
shows that she have authority. "Tetsu-kun!" The pink-haired Batista Momoi
wailed. "I'm so glad you've come. I thought you've ditched lunch break and
worked nonstop.
Will it be the 'usual'?"
The bluenette nodded. "Ah, also add a slice of strawberry shortcake. Put it in
a box. I'm planning to eat that later on while I continue work." He added.
Momoi scribbled in her notepad asking to wait for a while as she prepares his
order making Kuroko have enough time to investigate. This was
those benefits that Riko says about being "Special Class Investigators". They
could their own moves as much as possible if it'll contribute to the
organization. Least to say that Kuroko have made so much. Earning him the title
of "Stealth Shadow" by the CCG. His lack of presence makes him invisible to be
seen by the naked eye. Or once you've focused on Kuroko, the spell can be
broken and the enemy will realize that he's just there.
The people inside the shop - each having their own respective activities. Some
were eating, some were reading and leisuring, others were sitting like waiting
for whoever person he's wasting his/her time. But Kuroko locked eyes on a
table. There was a person who seem to be sweating a lot. His breathing
composure faltering as there was a flesh-like colored cube. He knew that wasn't
in the restaurant's menu. The alternative food. For ghouls. The person, a woman
looked up at Kuroko bowing her head once again. Grabbing the cube, she was
shaking with fear. Kuroko grabbed the metal rod inside his bag. His thoughts
swirling up with lust. Lust to kill. Kill these bloodthirsty beasts.
A ghoul
Kill
Kill
Kill
Blood
Slash
Blood
I love blood
Mother
Father
I hate this
I like killing
So many blood
Kill the ghouls
Avenge me, Kuroko my son!
Kuroko!
"-kun! Tetsu-kun! Tetsu-kun!" Kuroko now startled at the pink-haired, shooting
his shoulders. "I apologize, Momoi-san." He says looking another glance on the
woman - but she already left. Ah, no matter. Kuroko thought. I'll find her
soon. "Geez... Don't do that, Tetsu-kun. You've scared me to death. Anyways,"
pushing a glass full of white liquid. Foams started to form in the lid covering
the Oreo and chocolate wafer stick and a box with his name written. His
strawberry cake. "Here's your usual. A vanilla milkshake parfait with Oreo and
chocolate wafer on top. Enjoy~"
"Send my gratitude to the patisserie." Grabbing the delicacies. Fishing out a
thirty yen cash through his pockets and left the restaurant. Taking a sip of
the sweet beverage, the bluenette walk towards a dark alleyway.
It was raining so hard. The downpour was so strong, the entire Rakuzan was
covered in fog. Footsteps. Splashing through the puddles of water contacting
with their shoes can be heard. A woman was running. Running on her dear life
like it depended on how fast she could escape on whomever was chasing him. She
mutters shadows, dark, black and creepy eyes.
"He-help me! Please!" Calling for someone on who could her. Her eyes changed
color. From the normal brown to a rich deep of sclera black and red irises.
Within it, her pace went faster and faster - her shoulder blades produced a
winglike flippers - the size of a whale's - but colored with bloody red and
blue veins. Looking left and right. She couldn't find it. What or whom was
chasing her? When suddenly -
Slash! Swoosh!
The woman could feel something protruding from her stomach. A long - no - two
red glowing blades has been inserted inside her body. She couldn't feel
anything. A seering shot of pain and mouth agape, blood poured. Staggering, she
then felt a hot breath fom behind. "Please don't take this as a personal
grudge. I just happen to find a ghoul while I was buying a drink from my
favorite store.
I would personally like it if you wouldn't look back or I might stabbed this
again. Worst. It could be in your eye sockets."
"Y-you! - Ughhuahhhh..." Another stabbed came something came out from her body,
causing the woman to drop on her knees. "Now my clothes are dirtied. Kagami-kun
would be furious." Taking his swords out of the woman's eye sockets. A puddle
of red liquid came running at the bluenette's shoes making him more furious.
"My shoes as well. Guess I'll to buy a new pair." Suffice to say that it was
supposed to be disposed ages ago. Pushing the button in the handle of the
swords the sound of metal screeching and clanking had made as the swords from
his hands transformed into an object. A shoulder bag. The said investigator
knelt, getting the bag - as he put it into his body.
The decaying body of the ghoul was a sight to be proud of. The bluenette knew
he'd done yet another deed that wasn't in his list of permissioned task but
nevertheless, it was still a victory. He loved the sight of it. A lifeless body
of the bloodthirsty beast - killed with his own two hands.
The bluenette then felt like someone was watching. Looking towards the dark
sky, a nearby skyscraper, he saw a black shadow. Couldn't decipher if it was a
human or not but Kuroko can see gold. The color of gold has been staring at him
– piercing it inside his entire body.

     Mishaps, book and coffee preferences
Chapter Notes
     Unbeta-ed as usual. I don't have the slightest time to proofread.
     Thank you so much for the kudos and hits. This is still new to me. So
     a little bit of cheering and comment would be nice. It fuels this
     poor author in writing this abomination.
     The characters I think?? Are OOC so I apologized, especially Aomine
     and Kise. I know you're reading, yu. I am so sorry please I
     hduenjdndkd.
     Still don't have the slightest clue on what to write on chapter 11
     for Checkmate! but I'm getting there. Hopefully!! *crosses fingers
     Special mention to Tokyo Ghoul extras especially one character, if
     you can identify who. Thank you so much again for reading this one
     piece of crap.
     If you have knowledge of medical studies, please let me know. I'm the
     kind of author who doesn't have the patience to read medical books.
     So...I apologized and I'm not a sadist! It just happen to have too
     much deaths and its necessary for my story.
 
"Aominecchi~" says a man. He was wearing flashy outfits like those supermodels
you frequently sees in magazine with heavy makeup, posing seductively for a
living. The man witha color of the sun for a hair swung his arms around another
- a tanned man with bulkier features and croppy-cut strands of navy blue hair.
The scowl on his face was visible as the blonde grinned, hugging the tan man
tighter causing the said person in having trouble in breathing.
"Fucking....Lemme go...Kise!!!" Squirming at the blonde's grasp. For a model,
the man who goes with the name Aomine (the blonde only adds 'cchi' to everyone
whom he admires and by admires, Aomine was an exception) thought. He sure as
hell is strong.
"No! After finally having a day-off from work. I wanna have a date with
Aominecchi! Come on let's play basketball! I know you like it." Insisting in
his proposal - never letting Aomine get away because he knows the tan male
would ran away from him. For sure. "Godfucking dammit...Kise I hate it when you
do this. Let me go!" He pleaded but the blonde model just wouldn't budge. If
only there was some miraclewill happen. He would be even glad if they were
going to be called by their tyrannical leader.
Both of their cellphones vibrated. Signaling a notification. Plus the
vibrationwas informing, there was a call. Only special from the five of them.
The name Emperorhighlighted in their phones. Kise moaned while Aomine, thanking
to every deity and gods he could remember from saving him towards the malicious
threats that is Kise Ryouta. They knew they were being summoned.
"Dammit Akashicchi!" Kise curses. Putting his phone back in his pockets, making
one last look at the tanned male. Lipsing a "we'll settle this later on."
Oh how Aomine pray this meeting is worth it.
They both fixed themselves and left the vicinity.
 
At The Prism.Everyone were gathered at the "off-limits" part of the restaurant.
Only specialprivileged people can enter ('with the exception of Momoi Satsuki
for being a very useful and trusting person' dubbed the owner). The interior
was very dark. Dim lights of red, blue, yellow, purple and green like
limelights from a bar. The scented incense smokes coating the smell of newly
raw flesh of humans.The centerpiece sofa that can occupy at least five or more
people. A person was sitting, his legs crossed over like a royalty. With the
low lim light, it was hard to distinguish if there was really someonebut the
shiny color of scarlet and ruby orbs glowed.
Kise, Aomine and the other two person plus a pink-haired which was Momoi to be
exact, taking each of their respective seats. Said person with ruby orbs
produced a sound. Snapping, from the sound of it, as a white rectangular object
slowly lowering to the floor. Pictures appearing one by one in the empty white
board.
"We have sighted a lifeless ghoul near the vicinity of The Prism. We've
confirmed that it was ghoul no. 9780. Yamamoto Reina. 24. An ukakuuser. There
was a big wound in his stomach, still fresh and blood was still pouring out
from her body. Guessing that she was been stabbed behind by a sword. The
perpetrator of this crime was indistinguishable. The person can either be a man
or woman, we don't know for sure since the figure is blurry.
One thing for sure. This was the work of the doves. We will inform you again
when we have gained more about this incident, Akashi-sama." Ended, the screen
blackout returning to its normal white blankless board. No one dared to speak.
They respected the person called "Akashi-sama" before voicing out their point
of views. The lights switched on revealing a red rich colored hair accentuated
his flaming ruby eyes. The appearance was really something. He was in white
tuxedo suit and pants. The flashy grin producing in his face was making the
others shivers. If this "Akashi-sama" only knewwhat he gives off to his
subjects. Giving the vibe of a person with high-class, rich and powerful and
most importantly just being a tyrant.
"So..." The Akashi says. His voice rasp and calm like he'd had that sound since
the beginning of time. The feel and vibe of the atmosphere was chilly, and with
power."May I request on whom have ideas on which dove had made such a gruesome
crime inside Rakuzan ward?" Silence emerges, the redhead knew exactly that they
don't know anything disturbed by the crunching sound of a person eating. And
who says that eating is allowed?
"Atsushi." Deadpanned Akashi, his gaze piercing the said person. He was
gigantic! Nevermind Kagami because he had beaten him twice as he is. His purple
hair as straight as a ruler and his arms. The arms were another story. "But
Aka-chin. I'm almost done with the -"
"Atsushi." The leader repeated his name. He stared at the redhead - once,
twice, thrice then. Stacking the pack of his heavenly sweet food inside his
breast pockets. The others thanked the heavens for Atsushi obeying. The said
person just shrugged, wiping the crumbs of food in his fingers. The green-
haired person with the white coat still intact. They could tell that he went
here on rush. The stethoscope hanging from his neck plus the golden nameplate
pinned on his breastplate, gave away his identity as Midorima Shintaro.
Physician.He, Midorima spoke, breaking the silence. "I wasn't aware about this.
Not even my patients have heard anything happening.
I'd admit to be very oblivious in the subject matter. Perhaps the dove
responsible for this crime is that famous Stealth Shadow."
"I don't doubt Midorin's deductions Akashi-kun." Says Momoi. Reading the
checkboard she was holding. "No one knows how he looks like. Apart from the CCG
members, this Stealth Shadow is practically 'invisible'. Normal humans can't
even predict who or what does this person look like." Scanning through her
notes. She stumbled on something that might have gave them a little something.
"The only data I could gather based from our customer's description and my
observation last time I stumbled on the Teiko ward was that he's a 'Special
Class Investigator.'" She finished. The tanned male Aomine snarled at her
snarky data-gathering skills. "That's not even helpful, Satsuki." He added,
making the pink-haired barista furious and humped.
At least she had the courage to infiltrate the enemy's whereabouts.
"Indeed. That information is not really much but I appreciate the thought,
Satsuki." Akashi thanked Momoi for being the loyal human the leader trusted. If
Aomine hadn't propose to the redhead that the pink-haired can be useful for
him, so long as she will keep her mouth shutfrom knowing ghouls, she would have
already been inside of his stomach. Ages ago. Momoi nodded, a blush on her
cheeks. The blonde, Kise, whined. Asking if they could already go, his arms
locking Aomine's. Securing him that he wouldn't escape. Poor Aomine. "Patience,
Ryouta. I just need a little more information in this then you could go with
your 'foreplay' with Daiki." He grinned to the blonde as Aomine cursing the
redhead. "Oi! What are you blaberring about Akashi?! We are not doing fore--
" with his mouth stuffed by Kise.
"Atsushi. If you would be so kind, to close your shop earlier tomorrow. I'll
ask you for a little errand. Do not worry, I would be giving that 'special
human flesh maibou' you are so inclined with as a reward." With the mention of
the treat, Atsushi's eyes sparkle. He was a sucker for those sweets. "Okay. But
Aka-chin should give two packs of it."
"Noted." Added Akashi. And the purple giant rejoiced, being the first one to
leave. Saying that he still needs to make his quota of sales if he wanted to
have the money to buy those treats he's so addicted with. Only in Rakuzan ward
was the treat available. And those are only be bought by ghouls and not humans
since they might be doves in disguise snooping in their noses. Just to be safe.
Leaving the other four, Momoi suggested to get back in her duty in the shop
since she'd already gave her share of information. Three more left.
"Don't worry Akashicchi. I promise if we finished early on our date, me and
Aominecchi will guard the ward twenty-four seven." Aomine snarled, asking on
what the blasphemy is he spouting about when he winced with a sharp pain. A
foot stomping so hard in his. "Fuck you Kise! I swear to God I'm--" another
one. "Gaaahh!!! Kise I'll kill you!!"
"I love you too Aominecchi~ Now let's go!" Dragging the tanned-male away from
the door.
The green-haired doctor, Midorima, his attention, solely towards the leader. He
was... Was Akashi smiling? "Something tells me that you're not telling the
whole story in this accident."
"Oh whatever do you mean Shintaro?" Asked Akashi. Walking towards his mini
refrigerator and produced two containers. The aroma wafting through Midorima's
noses as he recognizes the scent. Coffee. Ice cold black coffee. Black and
strong as Akashi's rotten being. He gave the other one to the physician,
accepting it and drank the contents. "As usual, the coffee tastes bitter. I am
not so sure as to why would you like it. With no sugar." He sat in the single
comfy chair. As Akashi sat in the opposite side, laughing at his physician's
snarky comment about his coffee preferences. His eyes changed it's color. The
ruby irises Akashi Seijuro have now turned into the most frightening color of
topaz. The red glowing veins protruding from the corners of his eyes and the
dark colored sclera covering it was the sign that his kagunewas active. "I have
seen a very interesting human. And I would like to personally investigate
him." 
Midorima nodded. Trying to figure out if his friend was joking. When did Akashi
ever made a joke? He thought. This was probably the truth and he heaved a sigh.
Telling the redhead that it was suicide. "We are on the most wanted list,
Akashi. And you're telling me that you're interested in a human?" Akashi
grimaced, like this wasn't a big deal. Explaining that the human he was fond
with isn't normal and he's very...amusing. "For fuck's sake, Akashi. How many
times have I heard that in your mouth?
First, you've said that to Mayuzumi Chihiro saying that his weak presence would
be useful. It did. For three weeks and you've disposed him like a trash. Second
was that ghoul investigator, Furihata Kouki was it? Asking him as your 'special
someone' so you can learn what the plans of the CCG for the meantime. I admit,
you making Furihata as your lover was at our advantage but when you realized
that you're bored with him you've left him without any explanation." The
redhead took another sip of his coffee while the green-haired doctor was
waiting for Akashi's side. His topaz orbs - iridescence in the reflections from
the transparency of the dark-tinted glass window. He laughed softly causing
Midorima to be offended.
"Are you laughing at me Akashi Seiju--" before he could finish the sentence. A
crack was formed. A glowing mixture of red and blue in view. Midorima, once
perfectly calm, sweated, a lot. Catching his breath before all the air in his
lungs be lost. He was wrong to make the redhead mad. He should've known that
was coming. Of knowing Akashi, you don't want to be on the bad of Akashi
Seijuro. You shouldn't everdefy him. Not once, not twice, but never ever. "I do
hope that would be the last time I am showing that to you, Shintaro. You are a
good friend and adviser. The least you can do is to obey my every bidding."
Akashi smiled, the glowing tail slowly merges back from his back, his eyes
returning to normal ones. Midorima nodded, apologizing for his actions. "Also,"
he added. "Preparations for the mission three days prior in seizing The
Uncrowned Kings is complete. I've ordered Aomine and Kise to secure the place.
Everything in order, Akashi." Excusing himself and left the redhead leader with
his caffeine delicacy.
"I look forward in our meeting, my dear StealthShadow."
 
===============================================================================
 
 
"You did it again Kuroko!" Kagami says fuming with rage. Kuroko on the other
hand just looked down in his feet.  Obviously guilty as to what he had done.
His clothes were soaking wet, stench of blood seering from him. Even the shoes
that the bluenette loves so much were wet and drips of red color mixing with
the black hue. Yet again, as Kagami dubbed. "Didn't I told not to do anything
stupidas like, oh I don't know, kill a ghoul without backups and permission to
your superiors?!" ('Kagami-kun is forgetting that I ammore superior than him
but regardless, I like Kagami-kun pampering me. He's like my mother,' per se)
"It hurts, Kagami-kun but I know. I did it out of line and I promise you this
will not happen again, well, I can't say for sure though." Kuroko said making
the tall redhead even more furious with him. Ruffling his hair out of
frustration, Kagami just sighed. Forgetting whatever happened or he might just
get a digestion. Ordering the bluenette to clean up his face before Riko or
worse, he mumbled, Captain Hyuuga could see him on such a disheveled state. He
went towards the washroom, opening the faucet. Rinsing his entire, he cleaned
thoroughly. As he finished, he stared at his reflection. He was...smiling?
You did great, Kuroko-kun. I'm sure mother and father would be so proud.
"That's not for you to tell."
Are you doubting what you've done? Is Kuroko-kun...getting soft on the ghouls?
"Shut up."
Fine. But somewhere deep in your mind, Kuroko-kun is rejoicing. The smell of
blood, the cries of that woman begging for her dear life while you take it
away, slowly. Isn't that excites Kuroko-kun? You love killing them.
Bloodthirsty beasts who only knows to kill humans.
Surely you haven't forgotten about....Okaasan and Otousan? Right? Kuroko-kun?
Slam!!! Crack!!!
I guess I've gone too far. All right. I'm going to keep quiet for a while but
you will not control your lust, Kuroko-kun. I will forever haunt your mind.
Remember that.
"Disappear." He mumbles to his reflection. Blinking, he was back to normal.
Blood dripping in his knuckles. Damn it, he thought. Taking the clean towel off
the hanger, wiping the red liquid. But he will be asked questions on how did
the mirror crack, and boy does he have a lot of explaining. The shattered
remains of the destroyed, Kuroko can't help but to have that devilish smile. "I
do enjoy it."
 
Saturday night came and the whole Seirin team earned a two-days off. With the
outstanding performance of the team, Riko was really amazed at all of them.
Even the higher-ups has given them special citations on their job well done.
Kuroko and Kagami were rewarded badges. The heroncrest badge for Kuroko
(symbolizes its bravery) and the eaglefor Kagami Taiga (devotion) for their
jobs as special class ghoul investigators. Their leader, Hyuuga can't help but
feel proud towards his "kouhais". Kiyoshi congratulated them of course and
Izuki was just....being Izuki.
This, Kuroko wouldn't miss it for the world so he fixed himself. Wearing casual
clothing, he received a text from a "Ogiwara-kun."
 
[[To: Kuroko
From: Ogiwara-kun
Subject: Yo!!
I'm at town, Kuroko. Heard you have a two days off from work. I got the gossip
from Kagami, don't worry, your secrets safe with me. Wanna meet up with me at
Anteiku? The coffee tastes great and there's something I wanna give to you
before I go back to Osaka.
See ya at 4~]]
 
Kuroko can't help but smile. It's been months since he and his childhood
friend, Ogiwara had seen each other, each taking their own paths of life.
Ogiwara being a licensed lawyer based on Osaka Prefecture. Kuroko can't help on
how did his other friend met Kagami Taiga. That would have to wait, he thought
to himself and left his home but turn around to get something valuable. He
slipped his shoulder bag. In case he might encounter danger but in reality,
he's not comfortable, without even the slight touch of it.
 
The ride to the said cafe wasn't that long. Anteikuwas famous for its perfectly
brewed coffee. Whereas, Ogiwara was already seated in the window corner. Waving
his hand, Kuroko recognized the gesture, quickly going to his long time friend.
"Ogiwara-kun, how are you?" Asked the bluenette. The brunette, Ogiwara thanked
Kuroko for the concern, saying that he was alright. "Man, this coffee," choking
from his hot drink, (he'd forgotten that he was drinking caffeine and not
chocolate) "really, Kuroko, you gotta try these man. It's way tastier and
heavenly than those milk artificial drink you're addicted with."  Raising his
empty cup, he looked towards the counter of the shop, his voice as high as
possible with a gratitude of "Thanks for the awesome coffee, kawaii barista-
chan~" the said barista flustered, hiding her red face with her purple-hue
strands.
The bluenette pouted, he wasn't gonna keep quiet while his friend's badmouthing
his favorite drink. "How dare you talk bad about vanilla milkshakes, Ogiwara-
kun." His eyes expressionless eyes glaring the orbs of his brunette friend.
Said friend laughed, apologizing about his behavior. "I was only kidding,
Kuroko. Geez... Get a grip.
You're no fun nowadays. How's work?"
"Well excuse me for not having the sense of fun. And my work is perfectly fine.
Kagami-kun and the others are treating me well. How about in your end?" Sipping
the glass contents. He only ordered water after killing the mood, Kuroko wasn't
in a mood to drink anything besides his vanilla milkshakes, period. He said the
same, saying there was a big case he's handling about some rich businessman
whose been scammed by an unknown company. Kuroko snickered, saying the
businessman was a complete idiot for trusting them without double-checking
their background.
Talk about idiocy.
"Aw don't be like that, Kuroko." Ogiwara warned, asking for his bill before-
- "Oh!! I almost forgot," he exclaimed, rummaging his hands on his briefcase,
he produced a hard bound book, the spines perfectly in good condition, almost
as it was brand new. "Here. I found this while I was at Osaka, it was the only
kind to be honest. I have to fight over with the owner - just to let me buy it.
You told me this was the only book missing in this author's works." Handing the
book, the letters inscribed. You're flying without the strong desire by Suzuka
Kaito.The bluenette smiled, taking his dear friend for the wonderful gift.
"This is truly the last book I don't have in Suzuka-san's works. Thank you,
Ogiwara-kun. As a reward, I will pay your train ticket to Osaka right now." The
brunette grimaced. "Well I won't decline in that offer, especially for a free
ride.
Okay! Thanks a bunch, Kuroko-kun." As that, a cringing sound coming from
somewhere. Ogiwara panicked, saying that he needs to go now. Kuroko nodded,
slapping a 5,000 Yen in the table. Hoping for that barista to notice. He didn't
care if he'd had given a very large amount for a train and trip.
The exchange was worth his time and his eyes. The book, getting heavier in his
arms.
 
===============================================================================
 
 
"No please!!!" Screamed a man, his eyes glowing in red. Crying in pain, he was
clutching on his shoulder, the arms which was supposed to be there gone. Blood
dripping, he was begging for his killers to spare him. "Le-let me go!! It was
wrong of me for thinking that I could opposed Akashi-sama. I beg you..." He
whimpered, tears flowing in his eyes. The killer(s) stood at the man. Blending
with the shadows of the tall buildings, although their eyes gave away there
were the same kind as him. Ghouls.
"I'm so sorry-ssu," said the ghoul. His voice cheery and with guilt. "But we're
here on Akashicchi's orders and unfortunately..." Shrik!!! Clunk!!!The man,
knelt, coughing blood, his chest, with a sharp, object, deep inside him. His
vision getting blurry but can tell that another eyes were watching him behind.
"You're in Akashi's list. We're only here to do what we're told and that means
killhis enemies."  His kakugangoing deeper in the ghouls body, tearing the
victim's body into two. Raining the alleyway with red color. "Haaahhh....That
feels great!!" Feeling revitalized after the killing. Wiping off the sweat from
his entire body, finally showing - their light shot its faces. The men, a
blonde and a croppy hair of navy blue recognized as two members of Kiseki no
Sedai.The tanned-male, Aomine, smiling as his fingers trembling with
excitement. Saying that he'd missed the sensation of using his kakuganagain.
Kise, on the other hand nodded, enclosing the space between them. "Aww...
Aominecchi is really cute when he's hype about. How about you give me a
smooch?" Joking, of course there was no way that Aomine would do something so
embarrassing as to kissing another man in a public place. Worst, it was Kise.
Until the tanned-male grabbed the blonde's arms as their lips crashed. Aomine
tasted like sweat and his mint. And Lord, Kise thought. He wanted more of him.
He wanted this man inside him. Savoring the scene, Kise allowed Aomine to enter
his mouth, tongue slipping in mixing their own saliva. A soft moan escapes from
Kise, forcibly pulling the hairs of him. More. I want Aominecchi's all and all.
The tanned ghoul pulled away, biting his lower lip. He grinned at the blonde,
his aura - having that he was in a mood for a one night session. Kise would
never thought that he could see the day his crush - his reason why he decided
to become a one-eyed ghoulin the first place, the reason why he willingly left
his humanity to become equalwith him.
"I'm not finished with you yet, Kise, you want this a rough foreplay right?
I'll show you an equivalent of that Fifty fucking Shades of Grey.
You'll taste a Hundred Shades of Aomine."
Oh Lord, If Aomine only knew what he was doing to the blonde's.
"Aominecchi I so love you!!! You're mine! I don't want anyone to be in
proximity near with you. Not even Momoicchi but she's your childhood friend and
I understand your sentiment with her but you're mine. I really love you
Aominecchi~"
"Shut up, you idiot before I change my mind and leave you."
"Aominecchi so mean~ But that's what I like about you~"
 
The hospital, with its white atmosphere and the wallpapers, busying as every
person - either in a wheelchair being assisted by nurses or injured persons
quickly going towarss the room with the red sign of Emergency Roomwritten in
the top corner of the door frames. Relatives worrying over their beloved ones
on what faith is in store behind every doors. Midorima has seen it all. Deaths,
injuries, sickness, bruises, all of them.
He wasn't new to these sceneries. Being a physician was something he had worked
hard to accomplished, with the hardships of hiding his hunger of human flesh
whenever they had actual dissection. God, it was torture for Midorima in the
past college years. Luckily, he was not the only one with an agenda of ghoul,
blending with society, he had an accomplices. First was Akashi Seijuurou and
his teammates. The second was of course his so-not-my-friend-but-getting-there-
already nurse aid whom he'd met during his university years.
"Shin-chaaannn!!!!!!!~"
Speak of the devil, Midorima thought. A raven-haired man appeared beside him,
hugging the physician at back. He sighed, there was only one person who calls
him by that nickname. "Takao for the nth time, shut up. This is a hospital not
a mall." He said, annoyed at his nurse aid. The white nurse uniform suiting his
body frame, that signature smirk he makes - making the green-haired physician
be...capricious. Adjusting his glasses, he went to work. He had a patient
waiting for him at room 415. Diagnosed of Leukemia. On the verge of dying and
wouldn't even have the lifespan of at least two months. Feeling sympathetic,
Midorima asked the raven nurse to aid him at the said room.
He might me be a doctor but he was still a ghoul, nevertheless. Seeing a human
being on the verge of dying, the patient, Aisaka Ui, his ghoul instincts
kicking his system as to tell him to just kill her already. She was going to
die anyway. So why not today?
"Ahh, Midorima-san, hello." Ui says, her smile was fragile, moving the very
minimal she could did. The raven nurse, Takao greeted the young patient back
asking if how was her day? Ui answered back, her voice hoarsed then coughed.
Midorima went towards the patient, ordered Takao to bring him a glass of water
and medicine. He nodded and ran towards the door. The physician was controlling
himself, his kakugangoing berserk, wanting to get out. No. He says to mind. Not
right now. He gathered the young - setting her to a comfortable sitting
position.
"Thank you Midorima-san," thanking Midorima. A nod was his only reply as they
wait for the raven nurse to come back with the medicines. What the hell is
Takao taking so long?! His eyes changing drastically to a ghouls. He really
wants to have a taste of this dying child. To ease her pain but refused. He
needs to look professional if he wanted to have a normal life.
Heh, he sneered. When was a life of a ghoul normal? The heart rate machine
beside her bedside was going lower. She's already a goner. "Midorima-san?"
Asked Ui. The physician turned to her patient. "If there's something you want,
please let me know. It's my job to satisfy your needs before...well...you know
the answer to that." Making the child laughed, (softly) she said in a serious
tone. "I know I do not have much time but I would be happy if you devour me."
"What are you say---"
"I know Midorima-san is a ghoul. I notice the eyes recently. I didn't know why
you didn't have the courage to kill me when I was still strong enough but I
knew.
Midorima-san is fighting his instincts but the fact remains you are still a
ghoul. The monsters in our society." Ui says with confidence. She wasn't afraid
at the person in front of him, might kill her any minute now. She was prepared
for this. The physician cursed himself, saying that he wasn't hiding his
indentity strong enough. Making the child chuckle. "I would really honored if
you would show me your eyes."  Midorima heaved a sigh. "Would that be all?" He
asked. Ui nodded. He couldn't refuse, especially if it's the child's final
wish.
How troublesome.
Closing his eyes, Midorima concentrated on every veins in his system. The RC
cellspumping and moving - his eyes changed its color to the normal ghoul eyes.
Black covering the red iris. His shoulder blades producing a flaming red and
blue hue of fire with the shape of wings enlarging the room. This was the first
time that he had shown himself - his true self to be exact on a normal human
being. He thanked the heavens for not having CCTVs on every room. (The owner of
the building wanted to but saying that would such a waste of resources and
whatnot, he didn't bother)
Ui, was mesmerized. "Pretty" being the only word she can describe to the
physician's feature. She wanted to touch the wings, Midorima allowed but before
she can, Takao opened the door and panicked. "Shin-chan what are you doing?!"
Confused as to what his friend was trying to accomplish. One look at Midorima,
Takao can understand that he knowswhat's he's doing. Ui trembling, slowly
reaching the flaming wings----
"Attention!!! Attention!! A ghoul has been sighted at the hospital. A ghoul
investigators is currently on pursuing the said beast. All employees please
remain calm and stay where you are."
"Fuck!!" The raven nurse cursed. "Shin-chan you need to change back! Hurry!!!
before the doves are here." Covering for the physician, he ushered him to the
bathroom in hoping to change back to normal. Scrambling himself, he ran towards
the said room. Ui, on the other hand muttered also a "go." He just hopes that
she will not spill anything.
He didn't want to commit sins on people whose innocent including her. If worse
comes to worse, he muttered. He willingness to dispose of people is called for.
There was a knock on the door, "Midorima-san, can I ask you for a few minutes?"
Damping his face with water, Midorima look into the mirror, his eyes back to
normal ones. Putting his eyeglass on and fixed himself. With the turn of the
knob, he felt composed.
"Is there something you need from me?"
 
===============================================================================
 
 
Kuroko was too occupied. His nose, deeply inclined in the book he was reading.
Riko and the others we're having time to convince the bluenette to stop
whatever he was doing and g back to work but seeing that he didn't dare move an
inch in his seat, they decided to let him be on his own world. Even Nigou
couldn't beat the non-living object in his master's hand making the furball
pout.
They all put their chances on Kagami. He groaned, asking why is he asked by
such ridiculous things but nevertheless went with it. "Kuroko." He called to
the bluenette. "Oi Kuroko." Calling again but no budge, annoyed, he grabbed the
book. Putting it out of his reach. "God Kuroko don't make me do this again. The
captain is calling you. So is Riko. You better get your ass to the briefing
room before any danger befalls." The bluenette glared, asking for his book back
which the redhead gave back. Kuroko stood up and left, his feet taking him to
the briefing room.
There, Aida Riko and Hyuuga Junpei awaits. Giving first his respect to his
superiors. "Sit." Said Hyuuga. He did, listening to whatever they'd have to
say. "If this is about what I've did on the Rakuzan ward I apo--"
"Woah!!! Hold the fuck up. You were in Rakuzan ward?" Hyuuga asked. Surprised?
Guess Kagami-kun didn't told them the story. Oh well...he better give a very
convincing excuse as to not be suspicious. "What were you doing in a ghoul's
territory Kuroko-kun?" Riko was the one who questioned him. Kuroko told that he
was only patrolling the ward when he saw a lifeless ghoul dead on a dark
alleyway. That much was the truth, but Kuroko wouldn't go with the details.
"Hummmm...." Was all the leader says.
"Regardless, that's not why we called you for. I want you to investigate this
person," The bruenette handed a folder to the bluenette, inside were pictures
of a man. Seeing the photo of the man, take his breath away. The man was
beautiful. He was beyond perfection. Kuroko scanning patiently the photo. It
was a man - he doubt they were in the same age. The redness of his hair and the
ruby eyes. Kuroko was mesmerized about this man's beauty but something - his
gut telling him that he recognizes him. Searching for that man's
identification, "Akashi....Seijuro." Its name having a tingling sensation in
his mouth.
Riko explained that he was being suspected as the "Emperor"of the Kiseki no
Sedai, the leader Emperor."Some of our sources says that this Akashi Seijuro
had been sighted on many coincidences like the events as the Meikou and
Kirisaki Daichi wards accident. Some even says that he has the only red hair
residing here in Tokyo.
We can't say for sure but it's worth the try. And you're the perfect man for
the job."
Looking one last time on his assignment, Kuroko can't help but feel auspicious.
This man, the longer he tries to look at the photo, the more his mind remembers
something important. Like the eyes.He knowsthat it holds all the secrets and he
will find it out.
"When can I begin?"
