   *Kaede's p.o.v.*

   That big man with blonde hair, and a creepy white mask. Hmph. I hate him. He received a punisment from me, for underestimating me and interrupting my time with Ayato. He's not a good boy, he's a bad boy, and bad boys receive punishments.

   Ahh, Ayato~ I like being with him. He's not a bad boy, he even played Hide and seek With me and visited my dreamland!

   He told me to went to HySy ArtMask Studio, because I needed a mask. Well. But... I need to pay for a mask, right? Hmm. But I didn't have any money. Also, my dress was torn apart.

   Let's see.

   *flasback, Kaede's po.v.*

   "Oi Kaede. You need a mask," Ayato stated after he finished his 'lessons' with me.

   "Huh? Why?"

   "Just go to HySy ArtMask Studio. You'll know the location. You'll find out everything. The owner's name is Uta, and he likes eating eyeballs. You know what to do. And also, your first task is to go to Anteiku, and bring the ghoul boy named Kaneki Ken here. Alive. He has black hair, and he's wearing an eyepatch, it'll be easy to find him," he said few seconds before he turned his back and walked away.

   *back to reality, Kaede's p.o.v.*

   Hmm. Of course I know what to do. I danced cheerily around a dark alley and found a gang of gangsters. Ahh, it'll be fun. My dress was torn so my body was exposed, and I heard that exposed bodies can lure gangsters. I didn't understand how or why, but I just cheerily danced in front of them. As my expectations, they came out from their hiding spots and surrounded me.

   One, two, three, four, five, six, seven, eight, nine, ten, twelve, thirteen. Yay! 26 eyeballs!

   "Oi little girl, what's your name?" one of them grinned evilly and came closer to me. The rest of them laughed. It felt uncomfortable. I tried to smile as cheerfully. Because I know I'm pretty with a cheerful smile.

   "Ah, you're so nice to ask my name! I'm Kaede, and I'm coming over here because I want your eyeballs!" I exclaimed, and they laughed at me. Eh? Why did they laugh? What's funny?

   "Really?" one of the guys leaned even closer, his disgusting breath swept my face, making me cough. He took out a knife. Eh? A knife? He stabbed it to me, but it cracked on my body. It felt weird and uncomfortable. Hm. I hate those guys.

   "I want your eyeballs!" I sang as I let eight limbs came out from my back. It wasn't my full power, but they're not really strong. So I stabbed them with my kagune, and they didn't even fight back. Hmmm. Weird humans.

   But... how could I carry the eyeballs?

   I spotted a supermarket over there. I immediately ran, and when I came out, I brought a basketwith me. How could I got that thing... uhh, maybe I shouldn't explain it. Ehehe. I came back, and with a knife I got from one of the the corpse, I gouged 26 eyeballs and put them on the basket. Perfect. I hummed, and danced through the way to HySy ArtMask Studio.

   How did I know the direction? A secret :p

   *Uta's p.o.v.*

   I was just working at another mask when suddenly a small figure bounced in my studio. Huh? I immediately hid between the masks.

   I covered my mouth with my hand when I saw a girl. At first, I thought she was a small child. But when she got closer, I saw her body. And from her features, she must be about fifteen. Her black dress was torn apart, and I could see definitely everything from her body.

   "Uta...?" a childish voice called, and it sent chills down my spine. Wait. How did she know my name?

   "Are we playing the game of Hide And Seek?" she chanted, as her big blue eyes turned into kakugans. "Hide tightly..."

   "I can see your hair..."

   "I foooound you!"

   "I'm in front of you. Boo~"

   "HAH!!!" I jumped out of my skin when suddenly a childish face appeared in front of me. Her huge kakugans were making contact with mine ones.

  "Ayato sent me," she smiled sweetly, "I need a mask. And I brought this for you," she gave me a basket of eyeballs. I drooled slightly. My favorite.

   I've never been freaked out by my customers. As I rushed to take her measurements, I threw some questions. Her favorite color? Black. Favorite animal? Wolf. Allergic or not? Nope. Rc type?

   "Uh..." she pokerfaced.

   "Eh? Don't tell me you don't know your Rc type,"

   She shook her head as she rose from the chair. Then, she activated her kagune(s) and I dropped my jaw when I saw she has all of them. Ukaku, koukaku, rinkaku, bikaku. Plus, she's a kakuja. I froze. How can a girl like her be very strong?

   "O...kay, your mask will be done about four days from now," I exclaimed as I took notes on my clipboard. I didn't hear she rose from the chair, or footsteps, but when I looked back at the place she's supposed to be, she's gone.

   I sighed as I continued my work.

   *Kaede's p.o.v.*

   I took my first step into the coffee shop named Anteiku. I quickly spotted the boy Ayato wants me to get. He's pretty kawaii though. Awww~

   Confidently, I disappeared and appeared a second later in front of Ken Kaneki, holding both of his soft hands.

   *Touka's p.o.v.*

   A small female ghoul, torn dress, and caked in blood. She couldn't be more suspicious. I was about to strike her, but I seemed to freeze in my current place. I hissed to her, and she replied with a smirk. Her huge blue eyes turned into kakugans, and then, blackout.

   When the lights came back to my eyes, I panicked to search for her. But she's gone.

   And Kaneki's gone too.

   *Kaneki's p.o.v.*

   I saw a small ghoul girl entered the shop. She was... creepy? But cute in the same time. She looks so childish. She suddenly popped in front of me, and she held my hands. The way she held my hands was very childish. The next thing I saw was black, and when the lights came back, Iwas in front of Aogiri Tree members. Including Ayato, Touka's only brother.

   The girl who held my hands giggled, a creepy yet innocent, cute and pure giggle I'll never forget.

   "Kaede, you've cleared your first task incredibly well,"
