"Sumana"

Chapter 1

*I don't own Tokyo Ghoul, but I'm gonna change the name of Ayato's 'gang' if you will*

It's late autumn, begin winter as Hiroshi Hamada walks over the streets of the 20th ward in Tokyo. He has the bad luck to live in a world with ghouls, creatures who looks like normal people and eat them to survive. He has heard a lot about it, and especially about the gang 'The Raves', that's what the CCG calls them because of their masks that looks like the head of a rave. He's a bird keeper, and mostly he has raves. He just loves them, they're so mysterious, but also like the family that he never had. Sometimes, he wished that he was born as a rave instead of a human.

For his work he is a 'dj' if you will. He makes soundtracks that match his mood when he makes them. There are even versions of his work of a hour. His favorite is 'Light and Shadows', he mostly listens to it when he walks trough the city, and mostly when it's already dark outside, of when it's getting dark. He has mixed feelings while listening to it. He feels like crying, but also not wanting to. He feels like a little kid, but also a proud young man. He feels sad, but also happy. He feels tense, but also relaxed.

Shapes in the air flew from roof to roof, and some people stood still, looking at it. There were also some CCG agents. You cane recognize them by the black cases they're taking with them. Also Hiroshi looked up at the dark sky, when the dark shapes moved again.

Hiroshi's POV

'Scrape', someone on the street made a raven sound, looking at the moving shapes. Some looked at the guy who made the sound, including me. The guy smirked, showing his ghoul eyes. The doves opened their cases, standing in front of the ghoul. He looked at them, still smirking, but less then before. He seemed pretty calm for someone who's about to get killed.

"I'm not here to fight, or kill anybody," the ghoul said, his smirk totally gone.

"I can't stand living like this anymore.......Any idea how it feels to be treated like a monster!? And even just because we have no choice to be born like this......" I spotted an earplug in one of his ears. He must has noticed me looking at him, because he looked back at me.

"You are HiroMada, right?" he asked. HiroMada his my artist name.

"Y-yes," I answered him. He smiled kindly and warmly at me, saying ," I love your work. Listening to it right now," he said and pointed to his ear. He let his arm hang again, and looked up at the sky.

"I really hope....that I'll have a better live, once I'm dead," he said tears falling down his eyes. He looked for him again and let his kagune out for probably the last time. It was a Ukaku, it was beautiful to look at. He looked at me again, and smiled again, tears still rolling down his cheeks.

"Light and Shadows!" he said in a loud voice.

"Is like the world we live in. We live in a world of Light and Shadows! It was a honor to meet you, HiroMada. And, I'm happy to die with your music playing in my mind....for ever," he said, plugged the other earplug in his ear, spread his arms with a smile, and closed his eyes.

I didn't see this man as a danger at all! I even felt my own eyes tear up as I looked at the creature. I was born by a miracle. My mother was human, but my father a ghoul. It's against human and ghoul nature to have a child born from a human and ghoul, but, here I am. I can only eat normal human food, unlike the other ghouls. I also have a kagune, but had never let it out. I've never seen an Ukaku before. It's like a pear of wings made out of fire.

I can feel this ghoul's pain, he seems not being scared of the death, but also he does.

"What are you waiting for!!? JUST KILL ME ALREADY!" the guy shouted at the doves in a crying voice. He fell to the ground on his knees, crying softly. On of the doves took the initiative and slide his 'case kagune' like a long whip, from under the ghoul, letting him fly in the air a little. His eyes widened, but then half closed and a grateful smile appeared around his lips.

The dark shapes took the body away, and killed the two doves too. The people around me started running away, while screaming. I looked at the roof the shapes disappeared on and started running up the stairs on the side of the building.

Once I was at the top, I panted, looking at the dark shapes, sitting on their squats. Another shape stood on the edge of the roof, their back turned to the others. I guess that that was their leader or something.

'cough...cough'

"He's still alive!" one of the shapes said, and their leader jumped off of the edge, and came back with one of the bodies, trowing at the rest. They started to rip pieces of flesh of it, and cave it to the wounded ghoul.

"Here, eat. You'll heal faster," one of them said, but he pushed the hand away lightly.

"We all know how he had suffered," the leader said, standing with his back turned to the others again.

"Why are we trying to keep him alive then?" another asked.

"Because of him," the leader said and pointed at me, while glaring at me. the others followed his face, and looked at me as well.

"You're not human, are ya? A stupid creature like that wouldn't rush all the way after a suffering ghoul," the leader asked. The smell of blood and flesh disgusted me, but also made me hungry in some way. The leader walked to the body, and ripped a hand off, walking to me, and trowing it up and down in his own hand, like it was a tennis-ball or something. I swallowed. for some reason I couldn't get my eyes of the piece of meat.

I caught myself drooling for some reason. The others gasped softly at me, like they've seen something new. The guy stopped, taking a good look at me. His shot wide, and he let the hand fall out of his own.

"H-H-Hiroshi?" he asked in a breathy voice. When I took a better look at him as well, I saw that he had dark purple hair. It was darker then the guy who've I had a crush on since middle school, but, he really looked alike. My eyes already where wide, so they didn't grew wider when I realized that it was my crush for real.

Ayato Kirishima.
