"You know something? The 104th really has got the devil's luck." Jean observed as he wiped the blood from his face, "I can't believe we actually made it out of that alive."

Stood on the top of the wall, somewhere between Krovla and Trost districts, was the remainder of the combined forces of the Survey Corps, the Garrison, the Military Police and Anteiku, numbering in less than half of what they had started with.

"Now put her down slowly." A soldier instructed Eren as he helped the boy to lay Mikasa down on a stretcher, "You said she got shaken around on a horse for a while, even after her ribs were broken? We need to get her to doctor fast."

Mikasa looked up at Eren and, upon seeing the worried expression on his face, she attempted to ease his worries, "Eren. I'm fine."

"I'm sorry." Eren spoke softly.

"Commander?! Can you hear me, Commander?!" a group of soldiers surrounded the Survey Corps' leader as he collapsed to his knees, "He's about to pass out!"

"For fuck's sake, just get him onto a wagon!" a certain half-breed ghoul scolded the soldiers as he slung the injured man over his shoulder as he walked towards a wagon, "If you won't, I will!"

"You shouldn't push yourself." Touka advised as she watched the half-ghoul place the Commander onto the back of a wagon, "With all that's happened, I don't think anyone would blame you for taking a break."

"I guess, but still…"

"You bitch!" Ymir's screaming voice pierced the air, shortly followed by the sound of a loud slap, "Why did you interfere?!"

Looking towards the girl's location, the ghouls were met by the sight of Ymir, looking extremely angry at Annie, who had a red mark across her cheek.

"I didn't like the idea of you running off to die." Annie spoke calmly, completely ignoring Ymir's rage.

"That's not your decision to make!" Ymir snapped at the girl.

"I know, but I still made it-" Annie and Ymir were suddenly forced to keel over as they felt a heavy hit to their guts.

Looking at the culprit, they saw Touka, her arms crossed and a grumpy look on her face, "You two really need to calm down, or I'll start using force."

"You already did, though!" the two titan shifters exclaimed together.

"Oh, please, that much barely counts as anything." Touka waved them off, "Besides, Ymir, don't you think you should explain yourself?"

"I don't have to explain myself to you-" "I wasn't talking about me." Touka interrupted as she pointed behind Ymir, to where a small blonde girl was watching them with tears in her eyes.

"Historia." Ymir realised her situation as she ran off towards the short girl.

"Historia?" Touka asked aloud to nobody in particular, "Whatever, how are the others?"

"Why'd you hit me too?" Annie ignored Touka's question, still clutching her gut in pain.

"Because you were acting stupid! I get why you took Ymir back with us, but you could have gone about explaining it better, couldn't you?"

"Touka's right, Annie." Kaneki joined in, "She probably sees us more as the enemy now, we took away her ability to choose how she wants to live her life."

"I guess, but I stand by my choice." Annie insisted, "I didn't want to let her run off to die."

"Even so, we can't force people to become our allies, nor can we force them to see Reiner and Bertolt as the enemies. Ymir made her choice as to which side she wanted to stand on, no matter how painful it may be." Kaneki explained calmly.

"Yeah, I guess you're right." Annie relented.

"Now, as for Eren, we need to keep a much closer eye on him from now on." Kaneki pointed out.

"Right, and since Reiner and Bertolt have already seen it, they'll want him even more." Touka agreed.

"But, there's something not right about this." Annie began, looking perplexed, "Eren was able to command the titans, but that should be impossible."

"Why? If he has the power of the founding titan, he should be able to, right?"

"No, there is a condition to use that power, you must be of royal blood." Annie explained, causing further confusion in the minds of the ghouls.

"Then, is Eren…?" "Kaneki! C'mere!" Jean called out to his friend as he beckoned him over.

"What's wrong, Jean?" Kaneki asked as he approached the group of Jean, Eren, Connie and Armin.

"We need you guys' info." Jean stated as he left the explaining to Armin.

"We think Eren manipulated those titans into attacking the Armoured titan and the one that ate Hannes. What do you think?" Armin asked the three members of Anteiku.

"Yeah, you've pretty much got it... As unbelievable as it sounds, it looks like Eren has the power to control titans within him." Annie admitted.

"That means that… Eren, it's certainly a tough spot to be in, but… to get you back, the commander lost an arm, Mikasa's ribs got smashed and over 60% of our soldiers died, including your friend Hannes. Whether you're really worth that kind of price, it's something that I still don't know." Jean kept his eyes locked on Eren's as he spoke calmly, "As to whether the people who were killed for you died for nothing…well, that depends on you now, doesn't it? And whether you can use that power of yours?"

"…You sure got preachy after you joined the Survey Corps, didn't you?" Eren groaned.

"Huh?! What about you? You've just turned into an indecisive whiner!" Jean countered.

"No, Jean, he's right. It's creepy how serious and responsible you got all of a sudden." Connie backed Eren up.

"You still look like a bad guy, though." Armin added on.

"You bastards… hey, Kaneki! Give me a hand, would you?" Jean turned to his friend for assistance.

"Well, now that I think about it… you did sound a little preachy when we were speaking up on top of the wall." Kaneki recalled their earlier conversation.

"Seriously?! You too?!"

"Thanks, Jean." Eren's face was focused as he clenched his fist hard. "Thanks to you, I don't think I have to hesitate anymore. I just need to control my ability. I'll control the titans. I'll seal the hole in Wall Maria."

"You won't be doing it alone, you can expect the full power of Anteiku to back you up." Kaneki assured him as he put his hand on Eren's shoulder.

"I'm going to catch Reiner and Bertolt and make them pay. I'll make sure the deaths of Hannes and everyone else were not in vain. That's how I'll repay them for what they've done." Eren declared confidently.

Thus, the soldiers began to retreat to their respective bases to recover from their wounds, while Anteiku headed towards their supply-filled hideout as they waited for the others to recover.

"Your coffee really is the best!" Annie exclaimed towards her friend, who was sat, drinking a cup of her own coffee as she looked out of a window.

"Better than yours, at least." Touka made reference to when Annie had attempted to make coffee, resulting in a strange concoction that tasted like sick, "How you managed to make that is a mystery to me."

"Hey! I was complimenting you, don't insult me!" Annie snapped at the girl.

"I wasn't insulting you, I was insulting your coffee." Touka defended calmly, still looking out of the window, idly.

"That's just the s-" "Hey! What's with the bag of guns up here!" an excited voice from upstairs yelled down.

"Don't play with those!" Annie yelled as she ran upstairs.

"It looks like she found the guns." Kaneki observed, sat at a small table, reading a book.

"It seems like it. As long as she doesn't go nuts with them, it should be fine to let her have some fun." Touka suggested, not too interested in the subject.

*BANG* *SHATTER*

Touka left her spot as she began walking upstairs, "Ymir… if I come up there and find that you've shot out a window, I'll kill you!"

"Then don't come upstairs!" Ymir responded from upstairs. The female titan shifter had gone with them to their hideout, not feeling particularly comfortable with staying with the Survey Corps. Since she had done so, everything she had found had fascinated her, barely giving the others a moment of piece and quiet.

Closing his book, Kaneki began walking around their hideout. "It's hard to believe this is the same dusty hovel it was a few days ago."

The dusty bar had been cleaned thoroughly, the chairs and tables had been spread out over the bar area while the large amount of gas tanks, the spare ODM gear sets and the gas refilling station had been moved into one of the back rooms.

"They should be okay by now." Kaneki headed upstairs, where he found Touka pinching Ymir's ear tightly as the girl struggled in pain, a hole in one of the windows and Annie attempting to clear up the shattered glass.

"Stop! Stop! Stop! Stop! You're ripping my ear of!" Ymir pleaded.

"You deserve it for shooting out the window!" Touka retorted, considerably angry at the girl.

"Annie, you need to hide them better, otherwise she'll start playing with them." Kaneki warned Annie, completely ignoring Ymir's screaming as he helped Annie clean up the shattered glass.

"Yeah, I get it." Annie waved him off.

"By the way, Touka, I think I'll head out and see how the others are doing, today." Kaneki informed her as he gathered the glass with a dustpan and brush, "They should be mostly recovered by now, so we should check on them."

"Yeah, I guess so. Plus, we need to keep an eye on Eren too." Touka agreed as she let go of Ymir.

"Anyone else coming? Or should I go alone?" Kaneki offered, finishing up cleaning.

"I'm good. I need to try and fix this window, or at least cover it up." Annie refused.

"I'm good for the moment, I have some business to take care of." Touka gave Kaneki a look that told him everything he needed to know. "Food, huh?"

"I'm not gonna go, either." Ymir offered no excuse, but Kaneki knew why, "So, she's still scared of seeing her?"

"I'll give them your regards." Kaneki waved as he put on his uniform and ODM gear before heading out of the door.

"Wait!" Touka called him back and wrapped her arms around Kaneki, "Don't get careless."

"I won't, I'll just check what the current situation is, then I'll come back." Kaneki assured her as he gently stroked her head.

"Get a room or get lost!" Ymir yelled at the two from behind, causing the two to separate quickly.

"See you later."

"Yeah, bye." The two ghouls spoke quickly as Kaneki left quickly to get to the nearest city while Touka returned inside, where she proceeded to put Ymir through as much pain as she could.

"I'm looking for Commander Erwin or Section Commander Hange." Kaneki asked the first Survey Corps soldier he came across.

"Hange's up ahead a bit, just head up this road a bit and you can catch up with her." The soldier informed him as he pointed up the road.

"Thanks!" Kaneki thanked the soldier as he began running up the street. Until he was able to see the high-ranking officer of the Survey Corps, sat in the back of a carriage with a couple of other soldiers.

Using his ODM gear, he caught up with her and landed in the back of the carriage, just behind the woman as he greeted her. "How's it going?"

"Kaneki?!" One of the accompanying soldiers was a soldier that Kaneki knew well.

"Oh, Connie? You're here too?"

"What are you doing here, Eyepatch?" Hange asked the ghoul.

"I wanted to see what was happening around here. We've been trying to lay low since we got back, so we're a bit out of the loop." Kaneki responded honestly.

"Well, I wanted to talk to you anyway. I need to confirm a theory with you." Hange swiftly accepted the current situation.

"Fair enough, I'm listening." Kaneki started listening, knowing that there was a lot of information that he had yet to tell the others.

"We found a titan in Ragako village…"

"Oh? Where the attack started?"

"Indeed, and that titan bared a striking resemblance to Connie's mother, one of the people of that village, your thoughts?"

"It seems as though Erwin didn't get a chance to tell you, but what you've theorised is correct. Titans are humans." Kaneki informed them carefully, "Come to think of it, where is Erwin?"

"He still hasn't woken up. As for the current situation, we're still trying to confirm the presence of any further titans within Wall Rose. The supplies for the evacuees will only last two more days."

"Then, there's not much we would be able to do to help with that. What about Eren and the others?" Kaneki asked, curious as to the whereabouts of his friends.

"Eren is with the rest of the members of the 104th, who are now part of Levi's squad. They're currently following your example and lying low for the moment, hiding in a safe location."

"I see. Well, if it gets too dangerous, you can send them to us and we'll protect them." Kaneki assured the woman.

"Unfortunately, I am unclear as to where your hideout is, care to share?" Hange asked, hoping to ensure that they could keep Anteiku close.

"I guess, they shouldn't mind too much." Kaneki guessed, "But, I know how to get there, not where it is on a map."

"That's fine, then I'll just accompany you as you return there." Hange announced much to the dismay of one of her subordinates.

"Hange, are you serious?! What if the worst should happen?!"

"Relax, Moblit, if that's the case, we would know for certain whether they are allies or enemies." Hange spoke calmly, "In any case, this is us showing our faith in them if I go alone."

"I'll try to return her alive." Kaneki smiled at the soldier.

"Mind if I tag along?" Connie asked, "I wanna talk with Ymir and the others a bit."

"I don't mind but, are you sure?"

"Yeah, I have some questions that needed answering." Connie insisted.

"If you say so." Kaneki relented.

"Well, let's grab some horses and some supplies. Then we'll go." Hange declared, "A sleepover with a group of inhumans, how fun!"

"Wait, you want to stay? We don't have many beds and it's not exactly high-quality accommodation." Kaneki warned as he remembered the window Ymir had broken earlier.

"I don't mind about that, do you, Connie? No? Good." She didn't wait to hear Connie's response, instead turning to the one driving, "Hey! Change of plans, head for the barracks, please!"

"I guess we don't get much of a say, do we?" Kaneki asked his friend.

"Looks that way." Connie chuckled.

"So, let me get this straight, you brought these two soldiers to our hideout, without even a word of warning?" Annie asked, positively fuming, "And now, you're expecting us to let them stay here for the night?"

"Basically." Kaneki admitted, causing Annie to kick him in the shin. "You idiot!"

"This place is surprisingly well-kept. Not to Levi's standards, but still…" Hange began exploring around the bar area.

"Don't just come in!" Annie scolded the woman, "Why is Touka never here when I need her?"

"Rabbit isn't here?" Hange asked as she wandered into one of the back rooms, "WHAT THE HELL?! WHERE DID YOU GET ALL THIS EQUIPMENT?!"

"Think of it as a generous donation by the Military Police, albeit one they weren't aware of." Annie admitted, feeling rather proud of herself.

"But... I've seen military outposts with less equipment than this!" Hange still appeared in shock as she looked through the masses of equipment that they held.

"Now that I think about it, where's Ymir?" Kaneki asked his blonde friend.

"She should still be upstairs…"

"Did you hide the guns like I told you?" Kaneki asked, causing his friend to freeze up for a moment before running upstairs as if her life depended on it, causing Kaneki to sigh loudly, "Evidently not."

"Is something wrong?" Connie asked, trying his best to adapt to his current situation.

"No, it should be fine, just give me a moment." Kaneki left his guests for a moment before jumping to the top of the stairs and rushing to where he knew Ymir would be.

The scene that greeted him was Ymir running around the room holding a small handgun, attempting to avoid Annie. Sticking his leg out, Kaneki tripped Ymir up, allowing Annie to pounce on her and put the girl into a submission hold. Her arm outstretched, Kaneki bent down and took the gun from Ymir's hand, "Ymir, could you stop playing with these? I don't want to have another broken window."

Ymir offered no response to him, too focused on the pain Annie was putting her through.

"You've got it rather rough, don't you?" Hange observed as she came upstairs, suddenly grateful for her subordinates cooperative behaviour.

"Hange, you can stay in that room with Annie, Connie, you're with me in that room. Annie, did you get the stuff to fix the window?" Kaneki asked, to which Annie nodded, still keeping Ymir in a hold, "Then, Ymir can fix that window herself, and she's staying in here tonight."

"Huh?! That's no fair! Annie said she was going to fix it!" Ymir complained.

"What's unfair about it? You broke the window, so you should fix it yourself. Think of staying in this room as motivation to do a good job."

"But that's…" Ymir attempted to complain, but had no response good enough to convince the half-ghoul.

"Annie, let her go and get the supplies she needs so she can get started, now." Kaneki instructed his voice calm but firm.

Annie complied, rushing out of the room quickly, leaving Kaneki to grab the bag of guns and carry them downstairs so he could keep an eye on them.

"Now, I'll make some coffee, so go and sit down, you two." Kaneki spoke to his guests.

"U-Umm… Am I the only one who feels like this is more like a home than a hideout for the famous Anteiku?" Connie asked his superior as he watched Kaneki prepare four cups of coffee.

"Yeah… I suppose so." Hange agreed as she took a seat and waited as Kaneki brought the four cups of coffee. Placing them on the table, Kaneki took a seat opposite Hange and Connie.

"Annie, when you're done, come join us!" Kaneki called out to the blonde girl.

"Okay, just give me a minute and I'll be with you!" Annie responded as she carried some repair supplies up to Ymir.

"Alright then, I assume you have some questions for us?" Kaneki asked, taking a sip of coffee.

"More than I can count, but I'll start at the basics, you and Kirishima Touka, what are you?" Hange asked casually.

"We are ghouls." Kaneki activated his kakugan and unleashed a single kagune before continuing, "In exchange for strength beyond the limits of humans and our kagune, we are unable to live the life of a normal human being. Unless we feed on the flesh of humans, we will be overwhelmed by our appetites and go insane."

Struggling to restrain her curiosity, Hange stuck to what she needed to know, "I see, then, next question, what do you know of our enemy?"

"Personally, not much, but Annie does, so you'll just have to wait for her."

"No, it's fine, I'm here." Annie chimed in as she took a seat next to Kaneki, "Thanks for the coffee."

"Back to the topic at hand, what do you know of our enemies?" Hange tried to keep the conversation on topic.

"More than you, I know the total number of titan shifters, I know what their objective is in attacking the walls, and I know what it's like beyond the walls."

"Do you intend to share said information?"

"I will, if you be-ow!" Annie was interrupted as Kaneki kicked her chair over, knocking the girl to the ground.

"Stop being difficult and start talking." Kaneki berated the girl.

"Fine, I get it. You've been around Touka too much, violent bastard." Annie complained as she sat back down, "In total, there are nine titan shifters, each with their own name. The Colossal, the Armoured, the Female, the Jaws, the Cart, the Beast, the Attack, the Warhammer and the Founding titan."

"And of those titans, which are our allies and enemies?"

"Currently, as far as I know, the only titan shifters on this side of the wall are myself, Ymir and Eren. I possess the Female titan, Ymir holds the Jaws titan and Eren, if I'm not mistaken has two shifter abilities, the Attack titan and the Founding titan."

"So that means that we have to deal with the other five shifters as our enemies?" Hange asked, somewhat afraid of facing five shifters at once.

"No, the Warhammer titan will, most likely, not be attacking us." Annie corrected, "They just won't, I don't know why, they just won't."

"And you expect me to trust that?"

"You can believe what you like, I am just telling you what I know. Another example of what I know, the enemy is after the power of the Founding titan within Eren that can command all titans. It is for that purpose that I, Reiner, Bertolt and the holder of the Jaws titan were sent here."

"The current holder of the Jaws titan is Ymir, correct? Was she one of your comrades?"

"No, she was not. She stole the power from my former comrade."

"Stole it? How?"

"By eating him. If an ordinary titan eats a shifter, they gain the power of that shifter." Annie announced the method by which the power of the titans was transferred.

"I see… my next question relates to you in particular, Annie. Why did you decide to join Anteiku and betray your former comrades?"

"If we had followed the original plan to take the Founding titan, then I probably wouldn't have, but Ymir screwed up that plan by eating our leader. We were forced to stay here for five years, getting to know the very people we hurt so badly. I found myself searching for an escape and I found one during the Trost operation, when myself and Reiner fought against him." Annie pointed towards her white-haired friend.

"You fought with Kaneki?!" Connie asked, somewhat engrossed in Annie's story.

"Yeah, and we lost. It took all we had just to get away from him." Annie shivered as she remembered the feeling of the centipede-like kagune ripping through her hardened arms and burying themselves into her eyes.

"Is that so? But is it that amazing? Why would you not have joined with Eren when you discovered he had a titan power?"

"Eren and Kaneki can't be compared in terms of ability, you clearly haven't seen his full power."

"I have not, but I have read the reports."

"Then you should be aware of what he's capable of!"

"Er-erm Annie, you're embarrassing me." Kaneki stopped the girl, a light pink dusting his cheeks.

"Right, sorry." Annie apologised.

"Then, do you have any other questions?" Kaneki asked his guests.

"What about Historia Reiss? How does she fit into the equation?"

"I don't know, all I know is that she has some connection to the church." Annie admitted.

"That's Christa's real name, right?" Kaneki asked, somewhat out of the loop.

"Yeah."

"I'll get Ymir, she probably has a better idea about who Historia is." Kaneki stated as he went upstairs to get the female shifter.

"I'm here, I'm here, what do you want now?" Ymir complained as she followed Kaneki downstairs.

"Sorry to interrupt your hard work but, I would like to know about Historia Reiss." Hange asked as Ymir took a seat.

"Not happening." Ymir attempted to leave, until Annie forced her back into her chair.

"Start talking." Annie ordered, ready to punch Ymir if she didn't cooperate.

"It was just bad luck." Ymir began her explanation, "Back when I used to 'borrow' people's valuables to survive, I heard a story in a church in the interior about a young girl. In line to inherit a real high-up position, she was a relative by blood, but she was the daughter of a mistress, so there was a dispute over whether be could be heir. They had two options, either kill her or send her away to live a quiet life under a fake name."

"It seems that they went with the latter option." Hange observed.

"Yeah, and that's the story of how that young girl was driven into the military, the young girl named Historia Reiss."

"I see, that didn't end up shed any light on why the Reiss family are the ones who are allowed to know the secrets of the wall." Hange appeared disappointed for a moment before perking up, "Oh well! I still got more than I had expected when I came out here!"

"Sorry to interrupt, but there's something I have to know." Connie chimed in, sounding rather desperate, "Ymir, when I told you about my mum, you tried to convince me I was crazy, why did you do that?"

"…Why would I tell you the truth, in that situation?" Ymir asked after some consideration, "I could've told you the truth, and reveal that your mother had become the very thing you hate most in this world with no way of reverting back to human form. Or I could've told a small lie that meant that you could continue fighting, without being distracted by the fate of your mother. Which would you choose?"

"This is far beyond a little lie!" Connie yelled.

"Why are you even upset about this?! You ended up finding out anyway!"

"Because you lied to me!"

"Stop screaming, idiots!" a familiar voice from the entrance scolded them, "Seriously! I can't leave you alone for a little while without you attempting to scream down the building! What is wrong with you people?!"

Walking through the doorway was Kirishima Touka, considerably irritated.

"It's his faul-" "I don't care! Just shut up!" Touka silenced Ymir.

"Welcome back." Kaneki greeted the girl with a smile.

"I don't know why we have so many people here, but it's bad manners to come into someone's home and start screaming." Touka glared at Connie and Ymir, "If you understand that, shut up!"

"She's right, I think that's enough for today." Kaneki agreed as he began clearing away everyone's coffee cups, "Annie, if you would."

"Right, follow me, you two." Annie instructed as she led the two guests up to their rooms.

"Did you get what you went out for?" Kaneki asked Touka once the others were out of earshot.

"Yeah, I found one, it's over there." Touka pointed out of the door, "Don't ask where I got it from."

"Understood… Thank you, Touka." Kaneki gave Touka a hug, knowing what she must've done to obtain their food.

"By the way… I would like an explanation as to why Connie and Hange are here." Kaneki felt somewhat threatened by the girl's words, "It had better be a good reason or you know what will happen, right?"

"Ah… eer… it's erm…" Kaneki struggled to form a coherent sentence as he slowly backed away from Touka.

"It seems that you know you don't have a good enough reason. That means…" The female ghoul trailed off as she punched the half-ghoul in the stomach with all her strength.

Meanwhile, on the top of the outer gate of the Shiganshina district stood a group of four individuals, discussing their next course of action.

"Do you understand, Ayato?" their leader asked.

"So, you're going to take us to the outer city and we are to cause as much chaos as we can?" the dark-haired ghoul confirmed, looking at the blonde, bearded man.

"Pretty much, we need to draw them out and force them to come to us."

"Be careful, there are monsters just like you on the other side of the wall." Reiner warned the ghoul.

"I need to be more careful about what you're sending me in there with." Ayato corrected the warrior, looking down to the bottom of the wall.

"As long as you don't attack them, they'll pay you no mind." The leader assured the ghoul, "If you can, try to return alive. Your strength still can be useful to us."

"Shut your mouth or I'll rip it off." Ayato threatened the man.

"T-They shouldn't have weapons that can harm you so, all you need to be careful of are the titan shifters and others like you." Bertolt attempted to calm the ghoul down.

"Well, for the strongest ghoul, I doubt they pose much of a threat." The blonde man's words caused Ayato to tense up.

"You know what will happen if you betray me." Ayato activated his kakugan and glared at the three men, ready to kill them at a moment's notice.

"And you know what will happen if you betray us, don't you? There are many in our military who doubt your loyalty to Marley. So you had better bring us some results." The leader's voice was cold as he threatened Ayato.

"War-Chief Zeke…" a voice interrupted from behind them, revealing itself to be a 4m titan that climbed its way to the top of the wall, "Preparations are complete, we can go whenever you're ready."

"Excellent work, Pieck." Zeke, the leader, complimented the titan before turning to Ayato, "I assume you're ready?"

"Of course. You just focus on getting us there." Ayato instructed as he jumped onto the titans back and rode it down to the bottom of the wall, where a large cart awaited them.

The titan grabbed the cart and began to pull it along behind her, while Ayato sat on top of the cart, a sour expression on his face as he thought about what was inside the cart.

"I'm sorry."

This wasn't the most exciting chapter I've written, but whatever, it helped set up for the next chapters :P
In case anyone has forgotten about the bar, I suggest you read chapter 15, "Plans For The Future"
I am honestly tempted to do something like in re 125, let me know what you think of that idea
I ended up doing another Ayato cliffhanger, this time I added Pieck and Zeke :P
What do you think is happening to Ayato? Why is he on their side? What is in the cart? Why did he apologise? When will he learn that Kaneki and Touka are his enemies? How will he react? It's so fun to think about! :D
If there is anything you want me put in or any questions you have about the story, let me know :)
