Ken: its not like that...

Touka:than what?!!!

Ken: I did for lira. I want her to be free. Away from the Games.

Touka: hontoni?

Ken: *nods head* hontoni.

Ken pov:

Ken: So what game am I going to play?

Kisa: hmmm... I will tell you when we're in.

Ken: okay...

This time's arena is a little different from the others. Just a normal circle one with walls encircling it. No audience from above,only cameras.

Rosaki: hihi. Its me again. Let me repeat the rules since its so.... long since anybody wanted to play this game.

Ken: so long...?

Rosaki: hai. This game is called 'survival'. It was created specially just to let people kill each other and still get money on it.

Ken: wait what?

Rosaki: the cameras show exactly what's inside to the audience outside so no interference strictly. A special stage for two haters to kill in each other. Or... members to kill each other.

Ken: but I don't hate her.

Kisa: just listen to the end.

Rosaki: two qualifications. A to-death match. Agreed?

Kisa: mochiron.

Ken: why are we playing this?

Kisa: so that you can free lira.

Ken:what do you mean ?

Kisa: kill me.

Ken: what?

Rosaki: kaneki-san? Agree?

Ken: *clench fist* can I opt out now?

Rosaki: of course but you will owe us Games company 10 thousand.

Ken: so means.... I have to fight.

Rosaki: I take that as agreed. Second qualification,loser pays winner something as bet. Kisa?

Kisa: for life, lira is not going to be with yoruzuya. Kicked out.

Ken: lira that worth your life?

Kisa: says the person in the ring.

Ken: I.... I have nothing to offer.

Rosaki: than old rules. Kaneki-san shall owe hyaku yonju yon yoruzuya 1 million which the one closest to him shall take on the debt if Kaneki-san were to lose.

Ken: that would be....

Rosaki: Touka-san desu.

Ken: *clench fist* I have to win.

Kisa: can you?

Rosaki: very well. As much as I hate to watch the winner always win... please do win this time yunagi kisa. I bet my money on you.

Kisa: urusei gambler.

Rosaki: now... 'survival' STARTTT.

Hide pov:

Tsk. This was just a trap. A trap kisa set. She purposely made ken play the Games. She made me play hoping it would pull kaneki in. When it didn't work, she used kaneki's desire to free lira to make him play the Games.

She... she wanted to kill him from the very start.

But... that wouldn't make sense. She could have killed him easily. Why here? And offer such... stupid conditions.

For the money? Can't be... it's only a few thousand for a kill. Kisa has that money. She does love money, but it wouldn't make sense to wait until now. Make so much planning... just to get a few thousand dollars?

It doesn't make sense.

Why???

Why play this game?

Ken pov:

kisa came running at me a fast speed. She waved her katana at me. I dodged left and right as she tried to slice at me.

*slice*

My cheek got drawn a slice across. I collapsed onto the floor... I can't do it. I'm gonna die.

She moved forward towards me. Her blade... blood dripping from it... my blood. She is getting nearer. I moved backwards like a coward.

Shit. I reached the end. A dead wall. A despised face. Her blade at my neck.

Kisa: 10 thousand. Touka-chan. Dying in the Games trying to clear your debt because... you died. Just like you now.

I... died... because I died.

I can't. I can't die here. Touka-chan have to carry my debt. Touka-chan might die because of my fault. I can't let anyone get hurt because of me.

Can't... because my fault... no... hurt... no...

Ahahahhaa.... kill. Its been a long time since I've been let out to play. Flesh... eh... I'm not hungry. Kinda disappointing. ( hair turns white)

I deployed my tail kagun and strike her at the stomach wanting to pierce her there. But unexpectedly she blocked it with her katana.

Ken: kimi. Half ghoul ka?

Kisa: ala, its been discovered? Only now?

Ken: that idiot doesn't know a thing. Don't compare me with him. Are you...real?

Kisa: real? Ah. You're fake neh. Rize-san. Mixed with kaneki.

Ken: don't say that. I am half ghoul.

Kisa: I am. Real. The rare and only one. From birth. Human and ghoul.

Ken: interesting. I wonder how it would be like to taste you. I'm... hungry again.

Kisa: than come.

Hehe. I like your suggestion. I deployed my kagun tails and at full force I aimed at her. One of my tails was blocked by her katana. Than a second one of mine went against onto her katana.

*clank* her katana breaks. Like that ever could defend anything. I use the rest of my tails and surround her both sides. She finally deploys her kagun and wraps herself within it.*pierce* My kaguns go through hers. How weak... I could see blood flowing on the ground already.

A cynical smile appeared on my face'die.'

She release her kaguns that wrap around her after I took it out from her. Holes in her body. So much for a half ghoul.

Why? Why are you smiling? I don't understand.

Ken: what's so funny?

Blood were dripping from the end of her mouth. She's dying. Why smile? She not afraid of death? And... damn... she smells nice.

Kisa: you're strong.

Ken: so?

Kisa: Strong,special, no. Unique. No.... different. Why I experience things people don't? Am I ghoul? Am I human? I don't belong either world. I feel... alone. Nobody is the same as me.

Ken: (hair starting to turn back black. Half white... half black) kisa...

Kisa: gomen...

She suddenly dissapears. *pierce* my... stomach... kagun... poison...

YOU BITCH.

(Hair of kaneki turns back totally black)

Kisa: I... can't die.

Rosaki: ah... and both fainted. Or died? Tsk. Its a draw. I don't have my money back.
