𝐈𝐍 𝐖𝐇𝐈𝐂𝐇 Kaneki Ken falls in love with ( Y/n ) ( l/n ), a well-known unsympathetic ghoul from Aogiri, who at first w...
Blood was poured into a white, beautiful flower. Kaneki, who was still in the middle of his torture, was in those flowers, sitting down in the crooked chair with a blindfold covering his sight. While Ken was breathing heavily, a hand reached out to him. However, slowly by slowly, more dropped dripped on the lovely white petals, and that caused the once beautiful flower to turn suspicious and strange.
" Mom... " Kaneki said, a smile started to form across his face as soon as he felt a gentle touch but as soon as the white blindfold went loose, he widened his eyes in terror, " Rize-san."
" It's been a while, Kaneki-kun. What's wrong? You're all beaten up. How amusing," Rize said as Kaneki started forming tears in the edge of this eyes, " The master has arrived."
This time, Yamori wasn't wearing a suit that he often wore for his small, fun 'game'. In fact, he was wearing a white one, the suit he wears almost every day, with his ghoul mask on. He slammed his torture weapon into his other hand, signaling the ravenette that his torture will begin once more.

Screaming loudly in pain, Jason continued removing Kaneki's fingers and toes, one by one without showing him any sympathy at all. To Kaneki, it felt that he was born to satisfy others by using him, and there was no one who cared for him. Who would save him? No one... at least that was what he thought.
" How far have you counted?"
" 559..552.." Kaneki proceeded to count backward.
" I'm going to fill this bucket up to the brim," Yamori said as more blood splattered down the black and white floor that has been already cleaned over and over again.
' Yamori had ordered me to count down in seven-second intervals, starting from one thousand. I didn't understand this order at first, but I now realize that it was my attempt to retain my sanity. I held onto those numbers for dear life. And while Yamori took my fingers and toes, over and over, and over, and over, and over, and over, and over, and over, and over, and over, and over.. and over.. each time my fingers and toes grew back, I knew that I had become a monster. Ever since then, I couldn't forget what that female who patted me said. She said that she'll come and rescue me but now I wonder.. will she even help a monster like me continue to continue living?'

As Jason killed the two Aogiri Tree couple, Kaneki froze and looked down, his eyes filled with both regret and sorrow for not being able to save the two, who were the only ghouls that were friendly and nice to him during this kind of situation.
" I-it's not my... No... it's all my fault," Kaneki exclaimed in that one white room, tears starting to flow down his cheeks one by one.
" It took you that long to realize it? You'll just sit there and blame yourself over and over, but that won't change anything. You don't try to change. It's all your fault. That's only to be expected, right? Who's fault is it that things ended up like this? Coincidence? An accident? Fate? There's no such thing as fate. It's simply a combination of one circumstance and the next. And who is it that creates those circumstances? Who is it?" Rize explained as her happy tone turned dark, " It's you. All suffering in this world is born from an individual's incompetence. He's right, isn't he? This mayhem began because you were foolishly naive to the ways of the world."
