Sasaki Haise meets the librarian, Hana Daiki, in a street by knocking and ruining a pile of books on her hands. As sweetly as he is, he offers to recompense her with a number of dates. How will this end for Haise? Why would he ask this stranger on a...
I hear knocking but I'm too scared to even move. I should at least check if it's Sasaki-san.
"Who is it?"
"It's me."
I quickly open the door and Haise comes in.
"Did you get a note?" His expression is full worry.

"Yes." I quickly responded.
"Show me."
As soon as I give it to him I notice a suitcase in his left hand.
"Haise-san what's going on?"
He blankly stares at the note for a moment and crushes it. He touched his chin again.
"It's nothing. Just try to lay low for at least three hours; there have been a lot of accidents recently in this area." He's anxious.
I gulp harshly. He's about to leave but I stop him by grabbing his gray jacket.
"I'm sorry to ask but can you stay for a little while? You can't just expect me to just stay put like this without a proper explanation. What's going on? I'm..."

"Please! Open the door! HELP ME!"
I open the door without thought.
"Are you ok miss?!"
There's no one outside, I go out to double check. My knees tremble in fear. I hear incomprehensible noises at my back, the chills grow from my spine to the ends of my feet. I feel the need to run.

I barely can regain consciousness. I try to get up, I can't. Salty blood inhabits the back of my tongue, I spit a good amount of it.

"Sasaki-san" I whispered as I stared at the kagune growing in his back. I blink as my consciousness fades and remember my mother eating my fathers corpse.
His eyes meet mine and I try not to be startled. Tears flood my eyes and as I blink I fade into darkness.
