Broken Paths

Ken Kaneki was born a natural half-ghoul to a human mother and a ghoul father who is also an SS ranked binger eater. As far as anyone knows, Kaneki is the first of his kind and he lived his young life moving from ward to ward trying to avoid the CCG, but his peaceful adolescent life ends in tragedy when the Dove's finally catch up with them in the twentieth ward when he was only ten years old. He's involved in an incident that gets both his mother and father killed, leaving him orphaned in a dangerous and unforgiving world. He is unaccepted by both humans and ghouls and struggles to find a place for himself. When he becomes an adult, he moves back to the twentieth ward after being separated from his best friend Hide after ten long years, but the Kaneki Hide meets is not the same kind child he once knew. Kaneki is now a ferocious binge eater just like his father, and is not just hungry for scores of human flesh, but for revenge.
