The five clowns charged forwards with spiked lance shaped kagunes out front. With a swing of one of his red tentacles, Kaneki sliced clean through all five of their kagunes. 

The clown gasped as a second red tentacle followed slashing through their necks. decapitating them.

5 down. 

Kaneki stabbed the foolish clown who came too close earlier in the head finishing him off. He then ate more of him fully regaining his energy. 

6 down. 

He heard voices in the hall. 

"Hold the door!" 

Kaneki threw a kick with so much force at the door it came off its hinges and fell on top of three more clowns. His power was ungodly. Through the door, he stabbed the three clowns in the head. 

9 down. 

He noticed about 5 more clowns in the hall, all of them turning to run. 

"YOU'RE NOT GOING TO ESCAPE!" Kaneki screamed losing a bit of control. "YOU THINK YOU CAN HURT ME? THREATEN MY FAMILY YOU BASTARDS?!" 

Blood painted the walls as Kaneki effortlessly cut down waves and wave of clowns; his 6 tentacles doing most of the work with Kaneki dodging any attempts to hit him. Anything that did hit hardly mattered as he would heal almost instantly. The clowns had no chance. 

After going through the whole building he had killed 47 clowns in total with barely a scratch on him. He came to one last room and smashed the door open effortlessly. 

Kaneki stood and stared down a ghoul who stood across the desk. Kaneki saw him before, he tilted his head trying to remember.

Kaneki flashed back remembering the events of that tragic day.

"Ahhh I wondered what all the commotion was about. Now tell me how did you escape dear boy?"

"You're henchmen are incompetent. Why did you take me?"

"I told them over and over again I knew nothing!" 

"And you expected me to believe that? Now that you're free i'm going to have to kill you. Such a shame, you're such a handsome boy"

"You son of a bitch"

Nico's kagune started forming, but before he could react a centipede tentacle stabbed directly through his body. While lodged on the kagune, Kaneki brought Nico up to his face.
