Tokyo Ghoul: Regina

alive.

Reina

"Sensei, you are sure that you are comfortable come with me, Toyama and Haruki?" Amano asks me as I put my vest and jacket on.
"Of course, it doesn't hurt to work with your own brother." I replied. "Besides, I think us against that serpent dude would be interesting." I smirked at Haruki.
"You really don't understand how dangerous Saburo is yet." He sighed. "His kagune is not just a tail in the shape of a serpent, it's deadlier."
"Oh, I think I'm well prepared for it."

We all split up our teams. Team one is me, Toyama, Haruki, and Amano. Team two is Naito, Arita and Kishimoto. Everyone else is in their separate teams, I had Urie as our backup and Suzuya Squad for Jirou's team. In total, there is 100 people on the line today from almost all the squads here. Our goal was to battle and capture Kin Saburo, the serpent. I remember him from my period of torture from Kei, he was a very brash individual, didn't give a shit who you are or what gender you are, and always wore a face mask with a snake on it. Kind of corny if you think about it, adds character.
We reached the bottom hard of the underground tunnels of the Oslo hangout.
"Sensei, is this it?" Amano points to the direction. We head down that path.
"Awfully shallow." Toyama says to himself. "This place is a shithole."
"Hey, dude, cut it out!" Amano slaps his back. "It's not nice, bro."
"This was where I lived for almost ten years of my life." Haruki tells him. "It was a lot nicer though, it's just that Kinuko has been hidden for so long, she didn't bitch about the dirtiness."
"That's awfully correct of you, Haruki." I hear a voice.
"Kin Saburo." I turned to him. "Speak of the fucking devil, you still up to that weird snake shit from what I've heard?"
"Kinuko didn't put you down like a dog last time, didn't she, thought you would've slept forever."
"Yeah, but I woke up, what a shame really, and I'm hell of a lot healthier than before." I walked up to him.
"Reina?" Haruki gets mad at me. "You can't fight him solo!"
"Oh, I'm not going to harm you." Saburo puts his hands up. "You just want to know if She's still alive."
"Yeah, tell her to relay this message for me." I said to him.
"?"
"Tell her that I'm coming for her fucking head." I told him, grinning.
"Oh that does it, you old bitch." He gets angry. He activates his kagune. I backed up a bit and activated mine.
"Your eyes, how unusual." Saburo said to me. "Never knew a half ghoul could have two kakugans."
"Sensei!" Toyama pulls out his swords. "Let us fight this!"
"Stay back, Toyama, this is handled between us two only." I assured him. I tried to pierce his tail, but he was too fast for me. We went at it for a bit, as I would attack him from time to time, but he always seemed to dodge with ease.
"Easy, Reina, your kagune is too weak still, you'll just be a nuisance and another body in the bag if you keep this up." He says to me as he goes for my arm, but I block it with my tentacle.
"You really talk too much for someone who wears a mask." I said back. I managed to pierce his side and he jumps back. I start to see a gas forming slowly from the end of his tail concurrently as I see Toyama from the crevice of my eye starting to run at him.
"It's my turn!" Toyama shouts as I see him lunging while Haruki quickly tackles him to the ground.
"Hey man, what the hell are you doing, get off of me!" He shouts at him.
"Everyone, cover your mouths!" He shouts at us. It covers our vision and sight. Poisonous gas, harmful to humans ghouls and anyone with an organism. So it was him that poisoned me all that time ago! This is what I've heard that is so rare for ghouls to do. It also took effect on kagunes, as mine started to wither away To think it would be our foe.
It finally started to clear up, and this dude was still standing there, eagerly waiting for one of us to attack.
"I want the boy with the swords next, Miss Reina is gassed to me." He points to Toyama.
"You think this is just a stupid competition?!" He gets mad. "We're not here to play!" He runs at him with his swords. He uses his swords to block off Saburo's attacks, quickly and frantically. I even see he took Haruki's jumping around ability with him, because before, he would always be the stealthy person, all rounder always on the floor person. Here, he was like a Arima dupe.
"AMANO, NOW!" He shouts for Amano, who activates his kagune as well, and punctures Saburo's back, and then Haruki jumps on top of him and cuts off half of his kagune worn precision.
"Yeah, we got him!" Amano shouts.
"That's it? You're a show off!" I said as I feel someone behind me. I was able to activate my kagune quickly to block their attack.
"Reina Washuu!" It was Koemi Ima, the young girl of the higher ups. "We'll finally put you out of your misery!" She says as I jump off the wall to dodge another attack.
"You know I can't hurt a kid." I told her.
"Oh please, I'm no kid." She smirked. "I want to cut you from the inside and take your organs to her."
"Oh jeez, too bad that's not happening." I said.
"Next, I will finally end you!" She send her kagune after me, it's too quick. Her kagune then plopped to the floor, as I notice Toyama slicing it down with his dual swords.
"Down, you runt!" He told her. "It's about time you finally get schooled!"
"Oh, you filthy human!" She shouted at him. "I'm going to make your organs into a nice meal-"
"That's enough, Koemi and Kin." I hear another voice. It was another higher up. He looked unfamiliar to me.
"But, sir?" She whined. "I want to finally kill them."
"That is not what Miss Kinuko wanted." He assured her.
"You're really a rider, aren't you, Yutaka?" Saburo said to him.
"It is her orders that we'd only take her to Her." He comes down. He had short blonde hair and wore a dark red coat and black pants and boots. He must've been close to Kinuko if he talks about her orders, as these two or the rest have been told different orders.
"Take me to her." I turned to him. "I want to know she's alive."
"She is alive. However, it is a bad time to see her." He says to me. "She's still recovering from the event three years ago."
"I see."
"I think it's a good choice to get the heck out of here, my choice really." He tells me. "We don't want that to happen again."
"That's bullshit, Ryuu!" Saburo shouts.
"Orders, Kin." He answered back. "I would love to get to know you though, Queen Washuu, have a cup of coffee with the two of us." He says as he walks away with Saburo and Koemi pouting.
"Queen?" I said to myself. What the hell is he talking about? A queen?
"Well, that was lame." Amano sighs. Mulitple dragon orphans began to spawn and break into the sewers.
"They must've gotten them to spawn here!" Amano shouts. "It's not lame anymore!" He activated his kagune again
"Amano, go!" Toyama pulls his swords back out. He launches himself at the orphan and cuts it precisely. Oh, Toyama, you tall sad sod.

Toyama

From the first cut, to the last cut, the flesh kept regrowing. It wouldn't stop.
"Keep going, Toyama!" Naito shouted at me as I pulled out my other sword.
"I'm trying, it won't stop regrowing!" It took five minutes to get Reina out of that cocoon that we coined. My arms were about to fall off when Naito pulled her out of that flesh. She was out, no sign of life.
"Holy shit." I fell to my knees, my swords were damn near dull.
"Those marks." Haruki grabs her arm. "What are these?"
"They're so detailed and beautiful." I said.
