When I found you

In Tokyo there are beings know as ghouls. Ghouls are very similar to humans, they look and act exactly like us. The only difference is that they consume human flesh. These said beings are the cause of many innovations in the city. One being the sectioning off of Tokyo into twenty-four area's that are known as wards. But the most important is the creation of the Commission of Counter Ghoul better known as the CCG. The CCG's primary objective is to seek out and eradicate ghouls. This was a good thing if you were human, but for ghouls it is a nightmare. Some fear the CCG and die cowering in fear while some hate them and die trying to retaliate.

This world is the definition of black and white. Forever stuck in conflict between human and ghoul, good and evil. Or at least that is what Kaneki Ken believed.

Fate always had a way at playing with Kaneki. His father died before he was born which forced him and his mother to move into the fourth ward. Six years later his mother died due to stress and over working herself. The trauma from losing his mother and the stress from living on the street caused his hair to turn to a snow white. It also caused a change in his mental state. At school he never played with kids, he'd never smile or talk. which lead to bullying from his class mates. Fate had forced him to grow up and realize how cruel the world he lived in was.

After a year on the street Kaneki new how to survive. He knew what trash cans to dig through, what stores to rob. He had a system and it worked. Then his life was changed by a man most would consider a monster, but to Kaneki he was a brother.

ーーーーーーーーーーーーーーーーーーー

It was the middle of December and Kaneki was on one of his usual food runs. He's been walking through snow for hours trying to find food. "I'm so hungry and cold' Kaneki always hated the snow it was cold and reminded him of his hair. It also made it harder to find food. Kaneki was on the verge of giving up till his nose caught the sent of something. He quickly ran towards the smell hoping it was something he could get his hands on. He turned down a alleyway, the scent was getting stronger he could smell it. He took a right at the end of the alleyway and bumped into a middle-aged man.

"Damn it! Watch where you're going brat"

Kaneki saw that the man dropped something on the ground. " Sir what is that"

The man turned his head to the direction he dropped his food. "It's hamburger steak. Why?"

Kaneki gulped trying to hide how desperate he was. The hamburger steak smelled amazing it's been for ever since he had a real meal. even if it is just scraps. "Do you think i could have it?"

The man stood up and walked over to the trey of food. "Do you Honestly think" The man looked Kaneki in the eyes as he raised his foot above the trey. " I would give anything to a bum like you" Just before the man's foot could come into contact with the trey Kaneki used all the strength he could muster to knock the man on the ground. When the man hit the ground Kaneki snatched up the plate of food and ran towards the alley. He was so busy looking back that he didn't notice the tipped over trashcan that layed in his path.

Kaneki hit the ground making the snow crunch under his body. He tried to get the food and run but the man was already on top of him. "Please don't hurt me I'm just hungry"

The man raised his fist above Kaneki's face." YOU PIECE OF SHIT" Kaneki tried to raise his arms to protect his face from the mans ruthless onslaught, but the man was to strong "DIE YOU LITTLE" His arms began to feel weaker and weaker and then "SNAP" Kaneki felt his arms break the pain was unbearable, but the man wouldn't give him time to cry out in pain. "I don't want to die" Was all Kaneki could think while the man continues to pound away at him. Kaneki knew his time was was almost up he no longer felt pain and his vision was nothing more than a haze.

"So this is it, Thought I would have died by a ghoul to be honest, but no my miserable life is snuffed out by a damn human. I don't understand this world anymore. Humans are supposed to be the heros yet all they are to me are monsters."

Without no sign of fighting back the man was about to kill Kaneki. He saw the lifeless look in the child's eyes. The man took out a knife from his pocket. Laying there staring his death in the face scarred the young child to his core, but it also ignited something. "I WON'T DIE" Kaneki's cry to live stunned the man long enough for Kaneki to head-butt the man in the chin. This caused the man's lip to bleed and allowed Kaneki to get out from under him. While the man was still on his knees clutching his injured chin the boy tackled him. Kaneki tried to punch the man he was on top of, but each hit made his arms hurt more and made his punches hurt less. So in a final act to fight the child opened his mouth and bit down on the mans neck as hard as he could. He hit a artery. The feeling of blood gush in his mouth was disgusting but he wouldn't let go in fact he bit harder. He bit so hard that when the man threw him off he held a chunk of his neck still in his mouth. The man's screams of pain went un heard by Kaneki due to his ears ringing.

"You little shit, I'm going to kill you" Kaneki shuffled back trying to get distance from the man. His attempt failed as he felt his back hit a wall. Kaneki was left with no other options. His try at fighting back only angered the man more. "No where to run now" The man raised his hand with the pocket knife. Kaneki closed his eyes to scared to watch his self get killed. Heard the man yell then heard the sound of metal snapping. "Now this isn't the way you kill someone" Kaneki's curiosity got the better of him so he opened up his eyes to put a face with the new voice.

The mysterious voice belonged to a man that had his black hair pulled back with a hairband. The most noticeable thing he wore was his long black trench coat. He could not see the mans face due to his back being in front of him. "Get the fuck out my way" The mysterious man didn't move and Kaneki was thankful because he was the only one keeping him alive. However the childs assailant was less then pleased. "Fine you can die with the basterd" The man readied his knife and charged the strange "Weak and foolish, all you humans" Kaneki couldn't believe what he saw the stranger's body changed he now had six tails sprouting out his lower back each held a dark shade of purple. He used four of his tails to pin the mans arms and legs to the wall opposite of Kaneki "I dont like people who harm children human or ghoul" The stranger walked towards the man pinned to the wall "Now let me show you how to kill" He brought his two remaining tails in front of the mans eyes. "Let me go you damn monster" Was the last thing the man said as the tails slowly pierced his eyes and continued all the way to his brain.

Once the mans painful screams stopped the stranger's tails vanished in a cloud of purple smoke. "Hey kid you all right" The man turned around to check on the kid but he wasn't there. Kaneki didn't know what the mysterious man was going to do to him. He knew he was no match for a ghoul and if his intention was to kill him, He was going to eat something. So Kaneki crawled over the what started this whole situation. A trey of food laying on the ground next to a chunk of flesh he bit off the man. Once he reached the food that had been spilt on the ground he tried to reach down and grab it, but his arms hurt too much. Kaneki was about to just eat the food off the ground like a dog until the stranger came up behind him and kicked the food away.

"Just let me eat, thats all I want" Kaneki kept his head down staring at the snow he hated so much. "Look at me kid" Kaneki did as he said and raised he head. The man got down to his knees so he was eye level with Kaneki. "Aren't you sacred" He said while pointing to his eyes. Kaneki felt a lot of things right now, but not fear in fact the mans eyes intrigued him. The iris was blood red with the sclera the deepest shade of black there were also veins in the sclera the same shade red as his iris's.

Kaneki shook his head to nervous to use his voice. "Hmm really, In that case why dont you come with me" Kaneki's eye's widened slightly which didn't go unnoticed by the ghoul. "do you have a home already if so I" Kaneki found his nerve and cit the ghoul off. "Are...are you going to eat me?" The ghoul saw Kaneki drop his head once again. He used his index finger to poke the kid on the forehead. the sudden contact made Kaneki flinch, but he realized he wanted him to raise his head again. "If I wanted to eat you I would have done it already, Besides" The ghoul leaned his head to Kaneki's face and licked the blood off his cheek. "You taste horrible" Kaneki looked the ghoul in his red and black eye's. For some strange reason he couldn't help but laugh it was only a light chuckle, but it was enough to give the ghoul a smile of his own.

"How bout this, If you come with me I can get you some food and ill tell you a cool secret" Kaneki saw the ghoul stand up and hold his hand out for Kaneki to take. He didn't know what the ghouls true intentions were but he didn't care. He made Kaneki feel something he hasn't felt in a years. Happiness, Kaneki stood up and accepted the ghouls hand. They began to walk off, but Kaneki was too weak to walk. The ghoul did something else that confused Kaneki, but made him happy nonetheless. He picked Kaneki up and sat him on his shoulders and they continued on there trip.

Along the trip the ghoul got Kaneki to talk about his life and how he ended up in the position he was in. He noticed how the kid was stingy with the amount of information he gave out. He didn't get angry though how could you blame a kid that's beem through so much. He's been through more than a full grown man and still has the will to fight. As far as the ghoul was concerned this kid was more of a ghoul than most ghoul's. Not to mention smart in the ghoul world giving out too much information will get you killed. "Hey Ghoul-sama" The quiet voice caused the ghoul to slightly lift his head signaling the kid to ask his question. "You know I don't eat humans right?" The childs question caused the ghoul to laugh. "Of course I know that, Why do you ask"

"When you asked me to come with you. You said there was food, but ghouls can't eat human food" The ghoul entered a abandoned shipping yard as he continued the conversation. "Thats true but that doesn't mean we can't cook it" Kaneki's eyes lit up at the thought of a cooked meal, it's been so long. "So you know how to cook?" The ghoul let out a nervous laugh and scratched the back of his head. "Not exactly but I might know someone who can"

"Well we're here" The ghoul put Kaneki back on the ground. Kaneki had no idea where here was all he saw was a ton of shipping containers. "Where are we exactly" The ghoul didn't answer instead he walked over to a container that was in the middle of four others with four on top. "We're home" He said as he pushed open the door to revile a fully furnished shipping container. Kaneki walked around and noticed that he tore down the walls on the other four containers to make more room. All in all it was warm and comforting.

Kaneki turned to the ghoul that was closing the large door. "Hey ghoul-sama" The ghoul walked by the boy, he was clearly looking for something. "Whats up kid" Kaneki started fidgeting with his hands. "You said you would tell me a cool secret" The ghoul was still diging through his house for something, but made sure to pay attention to Kaneki. "Ah here it is" The ghoul walked over to Kaneki with something behind his back. "Do you know what the most important thing is to a ghoul" Kaneki shook his head as his answer. "It's there identity, ghouls can act just like humans, go shopping, get jobs, all that stuff but if someone finds out there identity. there free life is over" Kaneki nodded his head it made sense once people know who you are, you'll be constantly hunted down. A ghouls identity really is a important thing especially in the fourth ward.

"Well would you like to know my name" Kaneki felt that familiar feeling again. You would have to be blind not miss the smile on the boys face. "I'll take that smile as a yes" The ghoul bent down to Kaneki's height. He pulled out a box of cookies from behind his back and handed them to Kaneki. "My name's Uta, I hope these can hold you over till the chef gets here"

Kaneki still can't wrap his head around it ever since hes been on his own humans have been nothing but ass wholes too him then out of no where a ghoul saves him. Not only that but he made him smile something he hasn't done in years all the defense's he's built up over time was shattered in one meeting. He doesn't know if he can trust him but since he was driven out the world of humans maybe he can find a home in the world of ghouls

"My name's Ken Kaneki nice to meet you Uta-sama"

Uta was the name of the man that saved Kaneki's life and completely changed the way he saw the world.
