Kasumi Smith...
My name is Kasumi Smith and i'm Commander Erwin's daughter, i have a younger sister called Hope and i did have an older brother called Matthew but he died during our ongoing war with the titans (Kasumi means mist or ocean when in names)
i'm training as a cadet so that i can join the survey corps and following the footsteps of my father and brother
my mother died few years ago not that long after my brother and it's just me, my dad and wee sister
So here's my story...
"Now look at the front these are the top ten cadets in your class" Shadis shouted as he pointed towards the ten cadets at the front
i was up there, i had came fist, the very top of my class and i broke a lot of cadet records and times, i was so happy i could finally graduate and join the Survey Corps
"Today you have the choice to join either the Survey Corps or the Garrison except the top ten who are eligible for the Military Police, choose wisely, dismissed"
The cadets scattered to join which ever brigade they were choosing, i went over to the Survey Corps but before i was full there one of the other cadets called rose from my class had stop me
"The Survey Corps, why are you joining them Kasumi, you have a chance to join the Military Police safe inside the inner wall"
"Rose, i know that you have been a good friend to me during our cadet years and you can join the Military Police like you have always wanted but my goal from the start has to join the Survey Corps with the top cadet ranking" i then turned and walked away from her before lining up for the Survey Corps
"Thank-you everyone who has decided to join the Survey Corps, we are grateful for your choice" Erwin shouted "Cadets you are now officially part of the Scouting Legions , dismissed"
After we were dismissed i went to find my father, i had spotted him through the crowd but before i could make it to him and bumped into one of the officials
"Oh sorry sir" i said as i lifted myself up from the ground and saluted
"Kasumi, that can't be you can it? i remember when you were just a baby" the official said
"Pixis, it's good to see you again, how have you been keeping?" i smiled
"Very well thank-you Kasumi, so you finally got you dream of joining the Survey Corps" he laughed "hard work really does pay off doesn't it"
"No Pain, No Gain" i laughed with a confident grin
Pixis smiled "well it's been good seeing you again Kasumi but there are some high ranking leaders that are waiting for me in a meeting and i'm already late so goodbye and good luck with your Survey Corps dream" he smiled before saluting me (Which some of the cadets dropped their jaws to)
"Thank-you Pixis" i smiled before i saluted him back before i ran off towards my father
"Erwin" i shouted as i approached him
"Kasumi" he smiled
"So i did it" i grinned
"Yes you did and i couldn't be more proud" Erwin said with loving eyes
"Thank-you dad" i smiled lightly
"And i know your mother and Matthew would be proud, they're watching over you from above you know?" Erwin explained
"i know, i can feel their presence everyday, i just wish that they could be proud of me from down here, that's all" i frowned
"I know sweetie, they were taken from us too soon but that's part of life, it's not always rainbows and happy endings" Erwin then brought me into a tight hug
"Thanks dad" i said once he released the hug "but i better catch up with the other cadets, we're travelling to the Survey Corps HQ altogether" i smiled before i ran and caught up with the other cadets
"Good Luck Kasumi, hopefully you won't have the same fate as your brother" Erwin sighed as he watch me run away
"Don't worry dad, i won't" i mentally replied
i'm on my way, this is my chance and i better not blow it...
