Kaede looked at her works, and she felt content, on one side she knew she should feel horrified by what she just did or at the bare minimum feel perturbed in some way. And she found she didn't and couldn't care.
Turning her head at the sound of expensive shoes clopping on the blood she saw the cold and calculating gaze of Arima and could already feel the critics falling.
"Yes I know what you are going to say, I wasted too much time and should have killed before they could have even realized I was there. I was late by half a microsecond at one point. And I didn't use much of your lesson?", the pink-haired girl spoke while her vectors moved and the blond ghoul's kahukou held invisibly in the air was moved in front of her fascinated gaze as she studied the still pulsing and very much living organ.
"Indeed, however, those are for later and will be translated into tripling the amount of exercise," Kaede's eyes thinned and a groan escaped her at that but little did she know it would have happened either way, Arima then continued.
"You have eliminated one S rated ghoul and two A- rated ones known for their synch and teamwork, you won in a three versus one while being 10 years, with no injuries or struggle while doing so unharmed by our standard. Going past all recorded cases expectations for your special case.", he finished, his eyes focused on the barely visible handprint of the things that held the kahukou in the air.
"S!? It's the blondie, right? Are they supposed to be this weak?", she asked incredulously, she knew the RC factor of said ghoul but this factor while related to strength wasn't obligatory the case for how the CCG rated them, from C, B, B+, A, A~, A+, S, S~, S+, SS, SS~, SS+ and SSS.
Ultimately S while not the strongest was far, far from the weakest, it just was unfair for a simple ghoul to be able to kill her in a direct confrontation. But life was unfair and frankly, she wasn't going to complain long as it goes her way.
Kaede didn't know her exact limit in terms of power behind what her vectors could stop, bullets were no problem but again small caliber was that, small caliber.
Arima nicked her neck because he was extremely fast and strong, to such a point he could trash around the strongest of ghoul humans and all in between presently alive in direct combat while armed.
"Yes."
Kaede nodded at that, the kahukou within her vectors was suddenly activated by one curious inside tap from a vector finger, and the shapeshifting flow of muscle morphed into a dark red claw with a deep blue side as it hardened.
"What would you want to do with this?", Arima said, unable to hide his surprise from the horned girl as she played around with the floating kagune, flexing it as she wished.
He really wanted to ask, but he knew it will be pointless as the girl either would change the subject, or ignore him but that didn't stop him from studying what she as the first individual of this new species was capable of, those 'psychic' powers being at the forefront.
"Could I keep one? Does this mean quinques? If so, can you bring me to the laboratory where they make them?!", her excitement was overflowing, and she nearly squealed, but she calmed instantly as she nearly busted the delicate ghoul organ in her vectors.
"Yes for all,", he answered calmly, pausing as he was amused by the sudden enthusiasm of the girl. One could forget she was psychotic "But not now, it's getting late and you need to go back to your home."
The same day in a large room a small woman wearing only a red and dirty cloak her entire body covered in bandages.
Even then the inhuman and disturbing smile was plainly visible through it as she madly giggled, looking with fascination at the small and old blocky TV video that was given to her by the CCG Reaper not even two hours ago.
It was truly fascinating how this pink-haired girl could do such a thing, the sheer powerlessness of her toys, and how she did as she pleased, particularly how she manipulated Nika into killing his own brothers in all but blood in a fit of uncontrolled rage to just break him mentally.
She had taste and style, a diamond in the rough for death and destruction.
"If only she was an orphan… If only… Oh. Yes that might work but it's too dangerous and I don't want her as an enemy, this young and already this strong, and neither do I want her dead… Ah, why do I worry so much the one behind the doves will do the work for me…", the One-Eyed Owl, Eto Yoshimura exploded into a full-blown cackle at this very likely future.
The organization V wanted the status quo between ghouls and humans to stay forever, and this little girl was one of the few ways it could be utterly broken or kept. She was unique.
Sadly Eto knew with how good they are at 'fucking things up', her existence being the prime example, it was only a matter of time before they did something that will inevitably result in Kaede stopping playing their games. Or Kaede will do it by herself.
At the same time within the CCG's headquarters in the chairman's office an old man with long hair, thick eyebrows, and a long beard all in white due to his age.
The air around him was tense as his gaze bore into the screen in front of him. He is Tsuneyoshi Washuu, the Chairman of the CCG, Patriarch of the Washuu clan and a ghoul of the purest bloodline within his own clan.
Various points were marked and studied as the ghouls in it were killed, again, again, and again by this recently discovered creature named Kaede Izumi or Lucy the first diclonius as one of the ones studying her blood named her.
He trusted his bastard half-human of a son to take care of her training and study her, from her personality to her capabilities and every detail regarding her. And terminate her if his son deems it necessary or he orders it.
She was a very interesting specimen, one that could be used to enrich the Washuu bloodline, but the opportunity for this to happen didn't present itself and she was a bit too young for such a thing, not that he cared for age, he cared only if she biologically apt to bring offspring.
And she was more useful than she is, not counting her peculiarity with her negative RC factor that still held strange effects on RC cells and could lead to the unforeseen unwanted event used to enrich the bloodline.
He was hesitating about what should happen to her when she will pass this year and became the youngest agent. But this answer will come with time.
Tsuneyoshi knew he might be playing with fire, but he was wise enough to realize this she was young and held no enmity but toward lower ghouls. The one that killed her human father.
As intelligent as she supposedly was, she was but a raw piece of metal to be forged into a tool, the CCG tool and by extension, his tool, and the Washuu's tool be it of her own will or by force.
