Destiny of a Shinobi || Book One || Tokyo Ghoul/Naruto Crossover [Rewritten]

Runaway

A/N:

Here's chapter two of the rewritten version of my fanfic!! Hopefully this will be better than my first version. Also, this story will be spoken in 3rd person point of view. This may change in the future, but I'll keep it in 3rd person for now.

Anyways, hope you enjoy the chapter!

On rooftop, a figure that wore a swirling orange mask stared down into one of the windows of a café called Anteiku. Beyond the window pane was Hinami, silently reading a book in her grasp. Blissfully unaware of his presence that watched her every move like he had done since day one.

And no, he was not a pedophile if that was what you guys were thinking.

He reached into his jacket pocket and pulled out the scroll with his mission inside it. He opened it up and reread what his boss had assigned him again.

Tobi,

This is an S-ranked mission. I want you to find a girl by the name of Fueguchi Hinami, around 11 years old, and bring her back with you by any means necessary. I believe she will help with turmoil in the future of our world.

Do not delay and report back when you have gotten her. Only use force if she doesn't come willingly. When you bring her, we will begin the necessary preparations for her.

He closed the scroll and stuffed it back into his jacket pocket. 'I have a feeling that I will complete my mission soon.'

Hinami sniffled a little, flipping through the pages of her book as thoughts of what transpired about four or five weeks ago. She ran away from Anteiku and nearly got not only herself but also Touka killed by the same ghoul investigator, or Dove, that killed her parents. She activated her hybrid kagune, two kagunes inherited by both parents, and defended Touka from him. Once she activated it, all she wanted to do was to have revenge by impaling him and decapitating him like he had done to her mother. But she couldn't do it. Deep down inside her heart, she knew revenge won't bring back her parents... No matter how much she wanted them back, they were gone and killing the man wouldn't do a thing.

It would have only labeled her as a murderer to not only herself, but to the spirits of her parents....

She sighed as she gently shut her book and set it on the small coffee table, deciding that she had enough reading for today. Standing up, Hinami strode out of the room and nearly ran into Kaneki. They both backed away from each other, Kaneki staring at her with wide eyes like he was a deer caught in headlights.

"S-Sorry Hinami-chan!" he sputtered out, appearing to be shocked that she came out of the room. Hinami knew she rarely leaves the room, but it shouldn't have been so shocking that she would leave once in a while. Who was she kidding... Everyone was on high alert around her whenever she left that room. It was like they thought she would run away again.

And... they weren't wrong about that...

There were times in the following weeks after the incident that she had thoughts of running far away from here. She was nothing but a burden to them and with the CCG thinking that she killed the investigator under the alias "Rabbit", even though they also had her known as the "Daughter Ghoul" as well. Rabbit was Touka's alias when she put on her rabbit shaped mask. But the CCG didn't know that since, well, wearing a mask hid a ghoul's identity. Despite what Touka has told her countless times, Hinami still believed that she should just disappear.
