Chapter 6: Running away

After I arrived at my apartment...

I saw my uncle watching tv.

He is my father's little brother and an ukaku type ghoul, just like me.

When my parents died he took care of me but now he just visits once a month to give me allowance and goes with me to buy some food supplies like the powderized human meat. We also scavenged together for dead bodies.

"You've arrived, where did you go so early in the morning?" He asked me.

"Uncle I think I'm in big trouble, help me!" I teary eyed begged him.

"...are you being targeted by other ghouls?"

"Yes, how did you know?" I asked perplexed.

"Your smell is strongly mixed with the scent of another ghoul. You really should stop eating animal meat. Your senses are being dulled and your health might really deteriorate." He worriedly said.

"But I want to act more human in school, Sakura might also discover me." I replied.

"Well now, you are being stalked by some ghoul...its lucky that you're still alive. Stronger ghouls have sharper senses so they must have found you very unique that's why you need to get stronger to fight not get weaker. " He reprimanded.

"I'm sorry" I looked dejected.

"Sigh...so do you know who is it?" He finally asked.

"It's the Binge-eater" I answered.

"What! We need to leave immediately!

She singlehandedly defeated the leaders in the last place she rampaged. She's very dangerous."

"But!!!"

"No buts! Do you want to die!?" Only pack your necessities we will go to my place and you will stay low." Urging me to act fast.

"Lets go!" he shouted.

Some dark alley going to the bus station.

"Ara...you seemed to be in a hurry pet. Where are you going?" She smiled chillingly while holding the head of a man who seemed to be an investigator.

As I heard her feminine sweet voice, my sweat started to form and uncle readied his wing like kagune.

"I was nearby, but then I smelled another pest near you...who might that be?" Her kagune positioning itself to strike.

"Both of you please stop!" I nervously said.

"My niece is not your toy, leave her alone!" my uncle shouted then he released some sharp crystallized projectile aiming at Rize's neck.

"Ahahaha...you think you can beat me?" Rize taunted while deflecting the attack with her kagune.

"Shut up, brat!" Uncle started to float and released a barrage.

But Rize just evaded all of uncle's attacks like she was dancing.

When Rize got close to him her kagune pierced uncle's arm and shoulders then fling him to the wall, destroying it.

"Ugh...(Y/N) run!" He shouted before blacking out.

When Rize was going to give the final blow to his head, I interjected between them with my kagune though I can only form one wing since my rc level is too low.

"Ahghh" I got stabbed in my stomach instead. "Please..(cough)...spare him... Rize...i'm..sorry...(cough)" I coughed a mouthful of blood and tears starting to blurr my vision as I passed out.
