(A/Ns: MERRY CHRISTMAS! MC IS BACK! Ahah, I said I'd be back on Christmas, didn't I? This is my Christmas present to ya'll, cause you know I love all of my readers who follow MC. This is Tokyo Ghoul! Yes, I hinted towards it in the Epilogue of part II. I actually wrote this a couple of days ago, and I've got the next chapter ready since I can't write over Christmas. As for this story if you have any questions, they'll be answered later.

This is half AU. It still takes place in the Tokyo Ghoul universe, and it takes place between the episodes of 4-8 of the anime. Yeh, just pretend this happened. The AU part is basically that Touka managed to convince Ayato to leave Aogiri, hence he acts like a massive prick. Oh yeh, and there's a warning for swearing, like always.

Please review! I'd love to know if any of my fans from part I and II have returned! When I was writing this chapter I couldn't help but say to myself 'Gah, I missed writing this.' So please tell me what you think!

Disclaimer: I do not own Tokyo Ghoul, Yaoi Christmas Songs or my friends (to an extent...))

~ Chapter 1 ~

"What?!" Ayato yelled, smashing his hand down onto the table aggressively, "That's stupid. I only just agreed to leave Aogiri, and now you're shipping me off to fucking England over Christmas!"

"Ayato, calm down, jeez," Touka sighed, "You have no fucking etiquette."

"Both of you; watch the language," Yoshimura warned, "I've already explained this. Anteiku needs refurbishment, and the only place which will take you in is a boarding school in England. It's last minute at Christmas. But, they made it clear only 4 guys could go. So, Touka and Hinami will be coming with us."

"So wait," Kaneki said, looking around the room at only Ayato, Touka and Yoshimura, "Who else is coming?"

"I've asked Tsukiyama and Uta to accompany you, since they are both 20, and so can legally take you out of the country."

"Aw fuck," Ayato cursed, "Is that Uta the retarded emo guy?"

"As if you can talk…" Touka muttered under her breath.

Ayato scowled at her, "Yeh, well, you and your emo bangs can fuck off."

"Guys, please…" Kaneki said quietly, "When do we leave?"

"Tomorrow afternoon, on the 25th December. Uta and Tsukiyama will meet you at the airport at 1pm. Your flight leaves at 4pm, and will arrive in the UK at 7pm local time."

"Wait, the flight is only 3 hours?" Ayato asked.

"No, dumbass," Touka insulted, "There's a 9 hour time difference. It's only 9am in England right now."

"Ugh, we're gonna be so fucking jetlagged."

"So, how close is this place from the airport in England?" Kaneki questioned, desperately trying to keep the peace between Ayato and Touka in the room.

"It's only about 5 minutes," Yoshimura smiled, "You should all begin packing. Touka and I are leaving tomorrow morning. Kaneki, please make sure Ayato makes it to the airport without killing anyone."

Ayato turned around and shot a sadistic smile in Kaneki's direction.

Kaneki laughed nervously, "Hehe, I'll do my best…"

….

"This is bullshit…" Ayato muttered, dragging the large black suitcase off of the train, "Spending Christmas on a 12 hour flight…"

"Well, what were you planning to do on Christmas day anyway?" Kaneki asked, trying to keep the conversation flowing.

"Nothing." Deadpan.

"Oh… sounds great," Kaneki chuckled, opening the airport doors and looking around for the adults. He was 18 himself, but that still didn't give him enough responsibility to take someone like Ayato abroad. Admittedly, he was quite sceptical about where they were being sent away to, "Did you and Touka not enjoy Christmas as children?"

Ayato glared sharply at him, "We grew up as ghouls. What do you think?"

"Oh right… sorry for asking."

"No, it's fine. Touka told me that if I wanted to move in with you guys I had to act like less of a dick, to put it bluntly," Ayato told Kaneki, "If it wasn't for that, I would've kicked you straight up the ass for prying for personal information like that."

"Um… thank you?"

"Yeh. Anyway, help me out here," Ayato glanced down at his watch, "I'm still trying to grasp this whole 'time zones' thing. Am I right in thinking its 4am in the UK right now?"

"Yes, well done," Kaneki replied, desperately looking around the airport for the others, hoping that they would save him from the awkward small talk, "Did you not go to school?"

"No, Touka wanted to. Arata… just taught me how to speak proper Japanese and English. Honestly, I didn't think learning another language had any point to it."

"Oh right. That's good. I hope-"

"Kaneki!~" a voice yelled, the sound of racing footsteps echoing behind them shortly after. Kaneki sighed, knowing exactly who that voice belonged to.

He turned around, and sure enough, the purple haired man was right there in front of him, smiling down at him as he flicked his arm up in the air, dancing around a little.

"Hello, Tsukiyama," Kaneki greeted.

"Oh please, call me Shuu." He purred.

Kaneki just stared and nodded.

"Shuu, calm down."

Kaneki, Ayato and Shuu all turned around to see Uta strolling up to them, a large purple suitcase being dragged behind him, along with a small red bag swung over his shoulder.

"Also next time, don't just dump your bag with me," Uta complained, but still managed to keep his voice level as he rolled the suitcase across to Shuu.

"Oh, I'm sorry, I just got so excited to see my dear Kaneki~"

Ayato scowled, "Why are we bringing this pervert?"

"I was wondering the same thing…" Kaneki mentioned, "I mean, you did try to kill me a month ago."

"Aw, sweet Kaneki. I was just hungry; I'd neverrr want to hurt you~!" Shuu pouted, "Besides, I'm the only one who knows how to sneak food through security, if you know what I mean."

Uta nodded, "He's got a good point. I was sent to supervise because apparently I'm the most responsible."

"What about Yomo?" Kaneki suggested, "I-I mean, you're not irresponsible, it's just-"

"No need to apologise; I took no offence," said Uta, his voice remaining at the same stoic, mellow tone, "As far as I'm concerned, we're staying with slightly younger people. Hence Yoshimura has the oldest as me and Shuu."

"Wait, how old are you?" asked Kaneki.

"20."

"I thought you grew out of the emo phase by the time you were 20…" Ayato commented under his breath.

Uta pretended not to be listening, "Oh, and on an unrelated note, the security keeps looking suspiciously at me. I think it's a bit unfair."

"Jeez, I wonder why that is," Ayato mocked sarcastically.

"Ayato, shut up," Kaneki whispered through gritted teeth, at which Ayato rolled his eyes and gave up being a prick for the day.

…

After another 3 hours spent going through security and sitting around the airport, the four of them finally reached the tedious 12 hour flight. Shuu sat on the side next to the window with Uta in the seat beside him. Between them and the other two were 4 seats. On the other side of the plane, Ayato sat bitterly, leaning against the window with Kaneki in the seat next to him.

To cut a long story short, Shuu stared out the window the entire flight, and Uta spent the whole time with headphones in. As for the others, Kaneki pulled out a book and simply read the whole 12 hours. As for Ayato, he spent the first couple of hours sulking, before finally falling asleep at what felt like midnight for them.

Eventually, the plane landed smoothly in London Heathrow. Outside it was drizzling, and the temperature was only 3 degrees C The sun had already set, and it was pitch black.

As the plane came to a stop, Ayato finally woke up, stretching and groaning as he faced outside. He was exhausted and confused, considering it was light outside.

"Ugh," he grunted, collapsing back against the seat and rubbing his eyes, "What time is it?"

Kaneki rubbed his head slightly, closing the book he'd been reading and looking at his watch, "Just after 7pm, local time."

"And it's still Christmas day?"

"Yep."

"Fuck. I'm tired."

Meanwhile, on the other side to them, both Uta and Shuu had woken up from a rough sleep.

"Just to check," Shuu began, lowering his voice so that the other passengers wouldn't know what he was talking about, "These people don't know we're ghouls?"

"No," Uta responded nonchalantly, "We'll have to eat human food in order to act natural. I presume you can do that and make it seem legitimate?"

"Of course, I'm an experienced ghoul." Shuu smiled towards him.

"Good. But, as for them," Uta gestured across to Kaneki and Ayato, "Who knows how well they can eat human food."

"I've seen Yoshimura teaching Kaneki before," Shuu explained, "But with Ayato, he's only 15, and has never really pretended to be human before, so that may be a problem."

"Oh well… his problem."

….

Kaneki, Ayato, Uta and Shuu finally retrieved their bags, and had located the taxi sent by their accommodation. They climbed in, sitting in an awkward silence as the vehicle drove.

As stated by Yoshimura, the drive was only 5 minutes. After a short amount of time, they were driving through a small town and then over a bridge. They drove along a small residential road, before reaching a large brick building. The entrance had a large sign hanging over the road, which the taxi drove directly under before stopping.

'MC Boarding School for the Mentally Insane'

"Why the hell are we in a boarding school for people fucked up in the head?!" Ayato shouted, stumbling out of the car and yanking his suitcase out of the boot.

"Yoshimura told us that this was the only place where we could stay. It's only a boarding school."

"That means they're really young," Uta pointed out, "It also means they are human. So we have to pretend to be human. They probably won't know what ghouls are."

"Wait, how the hell am I supposed to eat their trashy human crap?" Ayato scoffed, "It'll make me sick."

"Well," Shuu started explaining as four of them walked through the corridor to where they were supposed to go, "You sort of just swallow. If you've never done it before, then… good luck!"

"You pretend to chew and swallow," Uta explained the process in a little more detail, "Although, things will get a little painful. We have to get rid of the food before digestion begins."

Kaneki laughed nervously, "Yeh… I've watched Touka push herself really hard to eat human food. We only have to endure this a few weeks though, right?"

"Correct," Uta answered, "Yomo will contact me when Anteiku is finished."

"Good," Ayato grunted, "Only a few weeks of acting like worthless humans."

They continued walking for a few more minutes, before finally reaching the room labelled 'Rooms 7 and 8.' The room was silent, expect for the faint tune of what sounded like 'Frosty the Snowman.'

Uta stepped forwards, knocking on the door lightly and waiting for a response.

"COME IN!" two female voices yelled, both sounding like they were frantically holding back laughter.

The four shrugged, turning the handle and entering the room. The second they opened the door, the first thing which they heard was the music… and the lyrics.

'Uke the poleman,

Was as a jolly happy soul.

With a corn cob pipe and a carrot nose,

And a big old glory hole.'

Ayato and Kaneki both shot each other disgusted looks, whilst Shuu seemed slightly intrigued and Uta appeared unfazed.

Once they had fully entered the room, they were slightly disturbed at the sight.

There were 6 teens, which all looked around the age of 15 to 16. On the largest sofa, there were two boys taped to the side. One of them, who was quite short with dark blonde hair, had his arms and legs tied down, as well as tape stretched across his mouth. Opposite him on the same sofa was the second guy, who was taller, with brown hair, glasses and an AC/DC shirt. He only had his arms tied to the back of the sofa, and his facial expression indicated that he had simply lost the will to live. He also looked like he wanted to gauge his own eyes out.

Between them was a girl, wearing black jeans and a blue shirt. Her hair was also dark blue, and she was gazing at the TV screen in delight and enjoyment, with a remote control in her hand. On the adjacent sofa, there were another 3 girls. One of them had blonde hair, with a styled fringe sitting just about her eyebrows. She had her arms handcuffed to her back with tape stuck across her stomach and thighs. She just stared at the TV with wide eyes, questioning the sanity of those who liked this kind of thing.

Finally, next to her, was a smaller girl, wearing black and illuminous green clothes with bleached blonde hair, which was highlighted purple and dip dyed blue. She was stretched out across the sofa on her stomach, only her hands taped to the arm of the seat. On top of her back was a taller girl, with straight black hair covering half of her face, and perfectly painted eyeliner covering the other. She was wearing all black, with ripped jeans and a shirt bearing the words 'All Time Low.' Despite sitting on top of the other rather uncomfortably, she still looked like she was greatly enjoying herself.

"Um…" Uta was the first to speak up. Like the other 3, he'd learnt how to speak English at a young age, meaning language was not something which would affect them, "We're the guys from Anteiku… is this the right place?"

The two girls who were not tied down both gave each other amused expressions before bursting out into a fit of laughter.

"Ahh… haha, yeh, this is the right place," the emo-looking one said, "I'm Sami by the way. That's Jess."

"Hello!" Jess greeting, waving slightly as she still tried to regain her composure.

"Jess, I think we can turn it off now," Sami pointed out, standing up and ripping the tape off of the smaller girl's wrists.

"Aw," Jess pouted, "I wanted to show the new guys the Yaoi Christmas songs…"

"No," Sami told her, unlocking the handcuffs from the blonde next to her, "We need to give them a proper MC Boarding School welcoming."

"Oh, right," she smirked, "I see where you're going with this…"

"I'm KT," the blonde one introduced once she had been released. She sighed, picking up a doughnut from the mountain of them next to her, "Spelt with the letters though, like K and T."

The four guys nodded, still slightly frightened by what they'd walked into.

"I'm V," the smaller girl told them, crouching on the sofa, "Yes, I forgot my own name."

Jess and Sami both left V and KT sitting on the sofa, walking over to James and placing a hand each on the tape across his mouth. He squirmed around a bit, before the two girls nodded to each other and ripped the tape from his mouth.

"YOU FUCKING WANKERS! THAT SHIT WAS WAY TOO KINKY FOR ME! I'M NOT INTO THAT KIND OF SHIT! WHAT THE ACTUAL FUCK IS WRONG WITH YOU?" he screeched, as Sami and Jess just ignored him and continued removing the tape, "I'm James by the way."

Finally, the brown haired guy next to him was released. He exhaled, picking up the phone from beside him and plugging in one of the headphones. "I'm ET," he said simply, and then stared at them, before pointing to the rest of the girls, "And I will tell you this from personal experience; these people are completely fucked up."
