The Guardians stood on a roof watching the bustling streets below, Tooth pouted. They had been searching for ages and they still couldn't find this 'Kaneki' guy, it was getting dark and their time to find him for that day was closing in. Bunny's ears suddenly pricked up and his small nose began to twitch.

"Guys, I can hear something out of place and it smells weird, we outta check it out"

They looked at eachother and nodded in agreement, Sandy, Tooth and Jack set off at a fast speed whilst Bunny hopped across the narrow rooftops with North in tow. After a while Bunny finally stopped at a dimly lit alley where two figures could be seen walking a few feet away from the other. One seemed to be a fairly drunk man in his thirties whereas the other appeared to be a teenaged boy coming home from school. They watched down at the scene as the man began shouting abuse at the boy and chucked his bottle of vodka at the his head. The bottle hit it's target and The Guardians blood began to boil, they made to intervene but they were interuptted by the sound of laughter, the boys laughter to be precise.

"Is that really all you've got old man?! Maybe you should try throwing harder next time if you want to hurt me!"

His chuckles softened and they slowly turned into a sigh. The boy turned to look at the man and took a deep breath.

"Sir, I've had a really long day dealing with the CCG and I would appreciate if you just left me alone."

The drunken mans eyes widened, his body began to tremble and he began to take a few steps back. "CCG? D-does that mean you're one of t-them?! Please don't hurt me, I have family!"

The boys shoulders tensed and from the angle the Guardians couldn't see the expression on his face but from his next words they assumed it was filled with rage.

"You have family? Then maybe you should spend the time you have left on this Earth with them instead of going out and getting drunk! Some people would kill to have family to go home to! Leave now sir and...I will say this only once. If you tell the police my appearance or identity or anything that will lead them to me I will find you and you know what happens to people who mess with my kind"

He smiled at the man before doing something with his eyes that the Guardians couldn't make out from the height of the roof. However, the man definately saw and began screaming bloody murder, ran out of the alley, down the street and out of sight. Seeing that the man was gone the boy relaxed and scratched his right cheek.

"I mean, I wouldn't really go that far but the words will mean more to him when he's drunk and scared. Plus Tsukiyama wouldn't allow for me to be taken by the CCG without getting payback, since there isn't anyone else for me anymore so I guess that part wasn't technically a lie..." He said thoughtfully.

The boy walked further into the light and the Guardians were finally able to get a clear view of his face, wait, what? It was that 'Kaneki Ken' guy they were looking for, they had finally found him..but he had certainly made an odd impression and they hadn't even met him properly yet!

North frowned, it seemed like someone was after him. His eyes sparkled, well not for long since he is coming to the workshop. He motioned for the other guardians to commense the retrieval. They nodded and jumped off the roof, upon reaching the ground Bunny leaped forward and grabbed Kaneki, caught by suprise he didn't have time to escape one of Sandy's sleeping sand orbs. The stress was wiped off Kaneki's face as he slept and Jack smiled softly as a peaceful look replaced it and brushed the white locks from Kaneki's face. He could be Kaneki's friend if what he said was true and he only had that tsuki-something guy.

North suddenly threw a snow globe to the floor; opening the portal. Bunny looked hesistant but he had no choice as North pushed him through, the others followed and Jack was left holding a sleeping Kaneki bridal style. He let out a short laugh before jumping through.
