" /n )... " Haise muttered to himself.

" Huh?"

" ( Y/ ) ... p.. romise.. I don't want... to.. go away.. "

" That's it for you. Time to make you my desert," Takizawa growled and was about to hurt him brutally again, not until a kagune smacked the floor that was between him and the unconscious male. The kagune grabbed the officer gently as Takizawa just flashed a fake smile.

" Why are you interfering, ( l/n )-san?"

( Y/n ) didn't give a care about his question and placed Haise in her arms. She then checked his pulse before sighing in relief, " Takizawa-san, go help Rabbit and the rest. Leave him to me.

" That's something for me to decide!" he said and jumped high enough, enough for him to reach the ceiling before threw shards at her.

" Just fuck off, Takizawa. It's so easy," ( Y/n ) fumed and managed to block the shards using her kagune. Takizawa didn't give up. Instead, he continued to send attacks at the female who was deflecting his attacks, " Don't underestimate me."

One of his shards managed to pierce ( Y/n ) on the side, causing her to hiss in pain before she glared at him with pairs of bloodthirsty eyes. Takizawa was caught off-guard when he realized one of her kagunes managed to go behind him. It pierced his chest, causing him to cough out blood before he received more punches.

He was suddenly grabbed by the hip and he was slammed into the stage. A blade appeared on the tip of her kagune before its point was few millimeters away from his chest. ( Y/n ) placed Haise on the floor and stood in front of him with a defensive stance.

" That hurts.." Takizawa said as he sat up. The kagune managed to penetrate his chest once again, making him cough another amount of blood, " You're starting to make me breathe hard!"

Takizawa sliced her kagune with his other hand before some kind of mask appeared on his face, a very strange one.

" ( Y/n )-san!" Hinami shouted from afar as she pushed her to the side, causing her to receive the punch given by the male ghoul that was actually meant for the ( h/c )-haired female.

" Hinami...? NO, HINAMI, DON'T INTERFERE!"

***

" This is the power of an 'Owl'?" Hinami said, confused before she looked at ( Y/n ), who had one of her eyes closed with blood dripping on her forehead.

" It seems pretty much pathetic."

" Go back! Go back!" Takizawa groaned as he held the mask that appeared on his face, " I haven't eaten! I haven't eaten! I haven't eaten!"

" Hinami.. protect him. I'll deal with Takizawa," she said as she flashed a reassuring smile under her mask and Hinami just nodded in agreement.

" No. I'm okay. I'm no longer the person you knew," Haise said as he took few steps forward, " My body may be Ken Kaneki, but I'm Haise Sasaki."

The ( h/c ) female stared at him, wide-eyed with his answer, " Haise..."

Takizawa, who was covering his ears with his hand, stared at Haise with disgust, as Haise continued to stare at the ceiling with bangs covering his eyes.

' I'm willing to go away. So.. please give me the power to protect them... Kaneki.'

Sasaki cracked his finger before he dashed towards the ghoul with his kagune. He slapped Takizawa into the air before he caught up to him and punched to ghoul hard, enough for him to be surrounded by ashes once he landed.

" Haise, are you afraid of me?" Kaneki asked as he continued to sit on his chair, surrounded by an empty space.

" Mm-hmm."

" Why?"

" Well, because you're strong. Besides, I've got a gaping hole in me. I feel like I'm going to be swallowed up by its emptiness by its gigantic void. I cannot compete with.. the loneliness... it takes to fill it. I can't compete with you. I don't know which one of us is in control of this body anymore. I'm vanishing... My consciousness is..."

" Haise, listen to me," a boy said as he went closer towards the male and held his collar, " I am not strong. Look at me. Remember me. I am Ken Kaneki. Don't.. erase me."

Tears started to flow down the young boy's tears as Haise's eyes grew wide before he softened them again.

" So you're.. afraid, too. All right," Haise said as he bit Takizawa in reality, " I'll... save you!"

Another kagune sprouted out his back before both he and the crazy ghoul let out a battle scream with kagunes pointing at each other. They both successfully managed to pierce each other while Hinami, ( Y/n) and Saiko, who just arrived at the scene, gasped in shock. They both fell to the floor at the same time and ( Y/n ) had tears starting to gather in the edge of her eyes.

' I... I looked at him more as a friend until I realized I loved him more than companions. Did you... seriously loved me back a few years ago, too?'
