Chapter 2:

The Confrontation

Urogen


Buro: Oh dear, what must you want from me.

Buro turns around to look at the man standing behind him. The man holds a small, frisbee like disk in his right hand. Buro composes himself in a nonchalant manner and holds his hands behind his back. 

Man: I'm in a good mood so I'll skip straight to the point. I have come here to take your power. I'll destroy you first and then all the other members of the K-Regional Ghoul Association. 

Buro smiles softly.

Buro: There seems to be a mistake, I work independently. I am not associated with anyone else.

The man freezes. He then smiles and portrays himself in a friendly demeanor. 

Man: Ha! I have respect for you for not joining those losers, but I'm afraid I still need your power, more specifically your heart. Once I can spread your blood and heart tissue I will have created the perfect ghoul-defeater. I will take you down with it.

Buro: Ho? I'll gladly fight you even though you are a weak human. But how do you know my power?

Man: I have figured out the powers of all ghouls except for the first four, that bitch Havers doesn't ever get outisde and I have no clue what Godek's power is.

Buro's eyes widen for a moment then shrink back down. His smile becomes even sharper than before. 

Buro: I am impressed. If you state the truth then you are an incredible man. It takes someone with extreme knowledge and skill to not only track a ghoul down, but distinguish which ghoul it is, and figure out the power of eight ghouls.

Man: I've done my homework. This disk here contains everything I need.

The man holds the disk in front of him horizontally.

Man: My disk can not only track and find ghouls, it is the ultimate defense. I have mixed the organs of 47 people together and have created this fleshy shield. It is a shame I had to kill those people but if it means removing ghouls from society they are a necessary sacrifice.

The man throws his disk up and the disk expands to about 4 feet in diameter. A thick mixture of blood and viscera cover the surface of the shield. The man then catches it and attaches it to his right arm. It the smell of rotting corpses doesn't seem to faze both the man nor Buro.

Buro: It's the ultimate defense, but you still need me. Doesn't that make it imperfect.

Man: I'm not someone who is stuck in the present. Even though you can say I am being a little egotistical I have extreme faith in my work. There is little doubt you beat me, although you may flee from our brawl.

Buro sharpens his closed-mouth smile.

Buro: I warn you, I wouldn't enter a fight if I wasn't sure I'd win it. Tell me about your motives, I think they may align with mine.

Man: Ha! All I believe in equality, it's not anything obscure but it's still denied. All those years ago on that cursed morning, there was an event that caused a tip to the scale. I'm not religious but it can only be described as nothing other than hell giving birth to duodecaplets. Ghouls are too powerful for this world and I will stand up to send them back to where they came from. There will be sacrifices along the way but it's all part of the greater good. The funny thing is ghouls are one of the easiest parts of inequality. But I don't have the power to remove prejudice from this world. Not yet anyways.

Buro: It seems we may vary slightly in ideas, what is your name young man. It would be a shame to let you die in vain. I shall carry out your wish of destroying K-Regional and the Ghoul Association. 

Man: My name is Randy White. I will not lose. I have 47 deaths on my hand I will take you down ghoul number seven.

Randy moves his feet into a firm stance and positions his shield. Buro does not waver and keeps his calm stance with his hands behind his back and the same pleased look on his face.

Buro: How wonderful.

A bright flash of light consume the two figures. It is revealed to be a car with its high-beams on which recently rolled up to the scene. It's an old car but it's well maintained and cared for. After the initial confused feeling the two had, they both get a look at the person in the car.

Randy: Haha I knew we'd meet again!

Buro: You?
