The King Meets a Sorcerer(On Hiatus)

Chapter 1.14

"Come on," complains a shrill voice with a heavy New York accent, "You know you wanna give me 'em." Ken watches the exchange from afar; the woman, in a jester-esc costume, tries to convince a security officer to let her have the jewelry that's in their cases.
"She must be crazier than us," the voice chuckles with mirth. Ken listens to the woman muttering to herself about some Mr. J.
"Kaneki," the ghoul hears Caitlin through the Comm. He can also hear Cisco and Harry arguing about some type of name being taken, "you need to move in. She's on a murder spree and she's dangerous." Ken looks at the woman who now holds a gun, with accessories attached, as she points the weapon at the frightened guard. Kaneki dashes towards the two, he tackles the officer as the woman pulls the trigger. Ken can feel the bullet graze the skin at the outer corner of his eye, it almost feels like a feather moved across his flesh. The guard yelps in surprise and fear. Kaneki quickly stands from his place on the ground.
"I like the mask," the jester dressed woman compliments, "it reminds me of..." The woman trails off as Ken grabs her wrist and takes the gun from her hand.
"Let's go," Kaneki commands. The woman smirks, then she reaches into the top of her suit. She pulls out a grenade with a psychotic smile stretching her lips.
"You choose, me," she pulls the pin, "or him." Ken looks at her, then at the security guard. Without a thought, Kaneki unleashes his kagune. One part of the organ takes the grenade in its hand shape, then another grabs the woman before she can sneak away. The sharp edges of the limb cut into her flesh, as she struggles. Finally, the grenade goes off, only the blast stays contained in the kagune.
"Now," Ken pauses darkly to look at the woman again, "you're coming with me."
