"The truth is... everything and everyone always sounds annoying to ," Sumi said her eyes fixed on the fla.
"It still does... but I know one thing... I’m tired, tired of watching people die" she said as her lips pressed in a thin line.
"We all are," Usagi said sadly.
"Is this ever gonna end.. the pain, the loss?" Raiden said with shaky eyes rembering Asano’s death.
"It’s not," Yuki said coming in view, they turned to her.
Her expression is unreadable.
"It never ends, it never stops... all we have to do is learn to leave with it" she states seating beside Hiro.
Kana sighs.
"Thus the sad fate of the bio-genetics began the mont the Chemical Plant exploded... how ironic," he said sarcastically, staring at the dark skies filled with stars.
"I wonder why the plant exploded, you know... it has been in my head ever since," Mirai said pulling her knees to her chest.
"So said it’s an accident... so said it was made to happen because of the virus," Emiko said.
"Just who... who would do sothing as cruel as wiping the entire world," Haya said with shaky eyes.
"And now we’re but the collateral damage," Mizuki said in an amusent that didn’t reach his eyes.
"We get to live as a mistake or as damaged children," Mary said with a frown.
"None of you are damaged" Anzai’s voice ca in.
Their attention drifts to him.
"General Anzai!"
His looks were.
"None you are damaged," he said once again in a serious tone.
He took a seat.
"In all my years I never thought I would et kids as talented and brave as you all are... stronger than any soldier I have ever trained... the things you do are more than anything anyone could imagine," he said with a smile against his lips.
"You cry... you get back on your feet, you are faced with many heartbreaking monts but all of you still chose to fight" he points out.
"I wish I could do more... more to keep you kids safe" he closed his eyes for a brief mont.
"But fate has a lot in store for all of you, you were all dragged into this by fate... and sotis fate has a way of biting us in the ass even though we don’t want it to", he opened his eyes seeing their shocked gaze at him.
He raised an eyebrow.
"Did General Anzai just open up to us?" Kaneki said in awe, Ryu elbowed him to shut up.
Anzai chuckled at their antics.
"I ant every word I said... I’m proud to have all you as soldiers, you all have this certain desire and instinct to protect the ones you love and that’s... that’s more than enough".
"We’re glad to have you as our General" Hiro said with a smile against his lips.
The rest nods in agreent.
A warm smile pressed against his lips.
In the cluster of trees, Touka watch the scene with a smile against her lips, it was like staring at a dad on a campsite with his children, her eyes went all teary.
"Well that said and done," Anzai said rising to his feet. He brought out a pack of a cigar, shoving one in between his lips.
The bio-genetics sweat drop behind their heads at his bad habits.
He lighted it.
"Make sure you’re all ready to go by first light... I will not tolerate sluggishness" he said with a deadly look.
They shivered.
"Yes sir!"
He walks away.
On his way, he saw Touka, a smile evident on her lips.
"That was very gentle of you... you’re always rough when it cos to the bio-genetics" she said in amusent.
Anzai chuckled.
"Well, what can I say... I better tell them, who knows what might happen tomorrow" he states with a grin.
Her smile dropped.
"You think we might be attacked tomorrow or worse," she said for certain.
"There’s a high chance of that..."
"I see," Touka said with sad eyes.
"Touka"
Her eyes t his, she froze when she saw a look of worry against his features.
"I want you to stay here in Fukuoka"
"What? No way I’m doing that... I’m coming with you guys!" She protests.
"I want to keep you safe!"
"I don’t want that and besides I’m quite capable of myself you hea-"
She was cut off by her words as Anzai embraced her. She froze at his sudden action.
His arms wrapped around her back tightly.
"Anzai," she said with shaky eyes still in shock.
He didn’t say anything, he just had his arms around her.
A minute passed and then he broke the hug, his hands still against her arms.
She stared at him puzzled.
"Staying here will be safe for you... can’t you see that?"
She shakes her head negatively.
"I spent 3 years looking after the bio-genetics... the mont I laid eyes on them in that cocoon I knew they were my responsibility, I can’t turn away from that," she said sternly.
A smile ford on his lips.
"There’s nothing I can do to convince you huh? You’re really stubborn Touka" he said letting go of her.
"Anzai?"
In silence he walks past her, walking away.
Leaving a confused Touka.
Behind a tree Hachiro stood, he witnessed everything, his glasses blank white, an unreadable expression against his features.

"Tomorrow we move out of Fukuoka and head back to base," Shino said.
"None of us will die tomorrow... not anymore" he adds sternly.
"If only that was true," Mizuki said sarcastically.
"Still though I don’t want us to," Ren said.
"Heading back to base is the next step and a ans of devising a plan to take down the Queen Kaiju" Ten said adjusting his glasses.
"All in!" Kana said in a shrill tone stretching out his hand in a fist.
"Seriously?" Sumi said annoyed.
He shrugged.
Shino smiled.
"In," Shino said placing his.
Others did too one by one until it was remaining Hiro.
Hiro smiled.
"In!" He bumped their fists.
