Chapter 105 - Mark Time (Part 4)
"Dr. Touka" Kiyoshi said making her halt, the others were out already, the door slide shut.
Touka's looks darken knowing what he was about to say.
"There's no need to ask me why, Kiyoshi-sama" Touka states facing him before he could say anything.
"They will need me" she adds.
Kiyoshi's eyes sadden.
She bowed before she turned to leave, the door slide shut.
Kiyoshi gave a heavy sigh as his eyes grew wistful.

With the door shut, she leaned on it with sad eyes. 'Why care now?' She thought with shaky eyes. She bit her bottom lip. 'You never were there to begin with...'
"Dr. Touka?"
A voice came in as she turned seeing Anzai.
"General Anzai" she said with wide eyes.
He smiled.
"Oh I was just leaving... you are here to see the Prime Minister right?" She said nervous.
"Ha yes... consigning the mission, for some rearrangements" he states scratching his cheeks slightly with his finger.
"Right... the plans has changed" she said as her eyes drift beside him.
"Sergeant Tori?!" She began.
"Other matters to attend to" he said.
"Oh" she made a sound.
"I best be going then" she add turning to leave.
"Are you alright?" He asked puzzled, he felt some was off with her, like she was sad and worried about something.
"I'm fine General Anzai" she turned to him forcing a smile.
"Seems like I will be joining you guys to the surface after all" she states.
Anzai's expression turned unreadable.
"I see... Kiyoshi-sama mentioned something about medical personnel coming with us... but I didn't think you were going" he said.
"It is as you said, General Anzai... we are both baby sitting 51 kids" she said pulling some strings of her purple hair behind her ear.
Anzai frowned.
"This mission is important to us as it is to the kids... I can't bear to let them go out there by themselves... not after what happened a year ago" she said with sad eyes.
"Dr. Touka" he said with shaky eyes at her words.
"Please call me Touka, we should be way pass formalities now, after all we will be working together on the surface" she said with a smile against her lips, her eyes closed.
Anzai tensed at her words.
"Ha I guess" he said scratching the back of his head, he was about to say the same thing too but she quickly cut him off.
"I should be going then a lot of things to prepare" she said smiling as she turns to leave.
Leaving a dumbstruck Anzai, he then sighed as he smiled before walking into Prime Minister Kiyoshi's office.

Level 17: Bio-genetics Level
Room Hall
"Wow Ten you're a genius you thought about this awesome names for us?" Shino said amazed as he checks out the small papers.
Ten chuckled proud adjusting his glasses.
"What can I say... I mean we use blood weapons now, literally our own choice of fighting style so I thought we should add names to it for the technique we use" Ten said amused.
"So you went with these?" Hiro said raising an eyebrow as he raised the paper Ten gave to him.
"You calling the use of my eyes in attack... apocalypse veil is sought of lame" Hiro said, he also knew his eyes won't work anymore just like it stopped working a year ago.
Ten rolled his eyes.
"Well if you don't like it others will".
"I like it" Yuki said checking hers, she was seated beside Hiro on his bed as she checked out hers on the small papers she held.
"Even you Yuki" Hiro said sweat dropping behind his head.
"See?" Ten said with a motion of his hand.
"Cool... I can even add up more names if I want to" Shino said checking out his.
"I felt the need to name our attacks will enhance the efficency" he states.
"Nicely done Ten" Kaneki said grabbing as many as he could.
"Relax all will be distributed to all those who need" Ten said smirking as he adjusts his glasses.
"This is so cool!"
"This is so awesome Ten!"
"His theory might be correct"
"This could hasten the efficency of our attack!"
"Ten is always right"
Whispers around the other bio-genetics as they look up into Ten's idea and putting it into good use.
Sand smiled curly as he checked the paper he held.
"Look at this Asano-chan" Raiden said blushing as he handled Asano the one he wrote for her.
She took it.
"I like it" she said smiling warmly at him.
He blushed more like a boiling kettle.
"Bio-genetics assemble at the briefing classroom for your mission details!" Holly's computer voice announced.
"It's time" Sumi said sternly.
Once again the bio-genetics were brough to reality at their current situation, their soon mission to the outside world to face those creatures.
Homura gulps hard, his body trembling in fear.
