Nagisa's POV...

After the killing event of Kaneki's assassination, today though, Koro-sensei allowed us to have a break. A forest-life summertime fun. Bathing ourselves from nature springs, surrounded by trees and biotic life. Making this the perfect getaway to relax and have fun. I got surprised faces from the other girls, surprised to know that I was a boy. Well, I got a note out of it.

However, while the others are having fun playing in the river, there is one among us that I wanna question so badly..








Why is Kaneki wearing a floaty?

"Say Im weird but I wouldn't wear this without a reason.." Kaneki said, almost resurfacing a blush. I can tell he never wished to wear such a childish thing. Some of our classmates piff a spit at the sight.

"okay.." I looked up and down at him, a little convinced, "whats your reason then?"

"Yeah, what's with the floaty Kaneki..?" Kaede joined in question.

"..They might turn into a shock.." Kaneki sighed, ready to explain, "You see, I can't-"

And then, out of Terasaka's outrageous pranks, he pushed him in the river, where in a area thats too deep for us to stand on.

"Hahaha! You like that snowball?" Terasaka wailed, posing a fun yet threatening like stance.

"Hahaha man, once he resurfaced, your dead terasaka.." Maehara claimed

"Hmph a scuffy snowball?" Terasaka scoffed, accepting the challenge, "Lets see if he try.."

Long minutes after..

"Um Guys?" Isogai interupt, "I think he's drowning..shouldn't we be helping him?" He alarmed, pointing toward the direction where Kaneki splashed in. His floaty floating around the area.

Oh the bubbles? I'm sure he's fine. He's probably diving down the bottom, sneaking towards to Terasaka for revenge, there's nothing to worry about. This is Kaneki we're talking about after all, he has powerful jumping abilities and is skilled in combat fights. I doubt he's drowning......

Odd, why is Koro-sensei giving those white looks?

...

...

...

All of us screamed in unison, as soon as the bubbles of air where gone, "KANEKI!!!!!" We all jumped down to save him and to my ultimate surprise there he was floating in the middle, a sign of death in his features along with his mouth slightly agape, almost like he had given up swimming, immobilizing him with the lack of air.

As soon as we rescued him in the depth, we layed him down the shore, giving him time to breathe once more. There was no need for CPR since his heart was still breathing which is a relief. However though, while waiting for Kaneki, we all began to gist up theories and questions to this sudden occurrence.

"Kaneki is surprisingly weak at swimming.."

"If I'm about to rate Kaneki on that, I'd say -1 over 10.."

"Harsh man..You'd just witness him swim.."

"Has he been in a pool before?"
