Izumi jumped roof by roof, with only one thing in her mind. To hunt. With her pink mask on, she looked feral and more like an animal with each jump. Most of her face wasn't visible through her mask, but she wore a gigantic grin in her mouth while she sniffed like crazy for something, anything that could serve as her prey for the night. But of course, not everything is as easy as that. She suddenly came to a stop and observed a single person strolling about a dark alley, and she actually tried to make her grin bigger, but she was unable to. She was already smiling from ear to ear. Her kagune creeped out of her back, a pair of grotesque looking spider legs. She squatted down, ready to leap at the human right below herself. It seemed he was taking a shortcut towards his home, but if that was the case, then how unlucky for him to have been caught in Izumi's thread. [color=ec008c]"Itadakimasu!"[/color] Her muscles tensed and she almost leapt towards him from the top of the rooftop. Only to have her ears assaulted by a sharp neigh of a horse. It was unnatural, sharp and loud, some of the windows even shook because of it, seemingly about to break. Izumi crawled into a ball while trying to cover her ears. It might not have been so excruciating for anyone inside a building, or to a normal human, but to her, a ghoul and someone who was relatively near the source of the sound, it was really bad on her ears. [color=ec008c]"W-What? What the hell was that?"[/color] She peeked over the roof of the building, just to see her prey gone and a horse racing by. [color=ec008c]"Knight... you son of a bitch, at least warn people when you do shit like this."[/color] The ghoul, Knight, attracted all sorts of attention to him, now that he was so shamelessly racing by the streets while there were quite a few people in the street, as well as having his kagune out, fluttering much like a cape would. After a while, he finally found himself in the center of a crowded street, filled with shops of electronics. He looked around, until he finally found one of the cameras, which was focused on him. He climbed down from his horse and looked directly at the camera, and nodded. The image in every TV of the 8th ward was suddenly changed to an image of Knight standing between the crowds, while many looked at him, confused as to what was happening. [color=9e0b0f]"CCG! I know that you are onto me. As a ghoul, it is only obvious that you'll come after me. However, as the Knight I want to represent, I will not allow myself to bested by the likes of you, who use dirty tricks against us."[/color] Knight then turned his kagune into the spear he uses most of the time, and turns around to stab one of the onlookers. Many were taking photos, thinking it was some kind of elaborate prank, but as soon as they saw Knight's kagune piercing the victim's stomach, many ran. Knight threw the body elsewhere after that. [color=9e0b0f]"Cannibal Corpse.... I hope you are watching this. Come fight me here, alone with your partner, and I will also fight as cleanly as I am allowed. If you don't..."[/color] With bestial speed, he rushed to one of the other onlookers who were trying to escape and also pierced his chest. [color=9e0b0f]"This happens."[/color] He threw the body away again, and he started searching for anyone else that might have not escaped in time from his rampage. [h2] [/h2] [h3]Asuya[/H3] Already in his way to the night club Hikari was in, Asuya was attentavily watching his phone while driving, searching through the cameras to see if any of them caught something interesting. Much ot his dismay, they did. A transmission from Knight, the ghoul he just had put Matsuoka unto. It was bad, because, if they already knew of the orders he issued, then there was either someone on their side giving away information, or Checkmate was so much of a hacker that they were actually able to break through the CCG's security. Both were equally worrying. He listened attentively to what Knight had to say, before concluding that he should really leave it in Matsuoka's hands. Besides, Asuya had his own problems to worry about. After a while, he finally arrived to the Dark Nights and started honking for Hikari to hurry it up. [color=8882be]"Hey! Hikari, hurry it up! We ain't got all day!"[/color] He shouted. He suddenly felt lots of deathly glares directed at him too. One way or the other, he knew why those stares were directed at him. The most probable case was that he was seen as the 8th ward most paranoid and irritating head ever, and that they were all ghouls. The other one was that they were envious of his incredible good looks. He wanted to entertain the latter, since it'd be way too troublesome to eb caught in the middle of a ghoul storm.
