The Man with Wings on his Back

Chapter 1

INTRO

This was it… Our training was over we were no longer trainees we were now full fledged soldiers ready to fight Titans…

but first there was the decision of which squad we wanted to join. There was the Garrison, which was in charge of the walls and it's repairs. Then we had the Survey Corps, which I had NO intention of joining unless I wanted to go into an early grave! The Survey Corps basically were the ones who faced titans on every mission and most of them would die within months of joining.

So that was definitely not for me.

I had my eyes set on the Military Police which only the top 10 of our class were allowed a spot in so not everyone got the opportunity to join. Luckily for me, and most of my friends we made it into the top 10!

… I was number 10…

my friend Krista knew how hard I was working to be in the military police… I wanted to gain respect and be recognized by everyone as one of the best… so she took it easy during training so that I could be given her spot as number 10.

This year's 104th trainees squad top 10 consisted of:

1. Mikasa Ackerman (She's nice but over protective of Eren)

2. Reiner Braun (He's so strong he helped me a lot in training)

3. Bertolt Hoover (Bertolt is a nervous wreck! I think it's funny)

4. Annie Leonhardt (she's a bit scary and never really talked to me)

5. Eren Jaeger (He's so cool, Krista told me she heard Eren and the guys saying nice things about me! *Blush*)

6. Jean Kirstein (He's a bit of a jerk and has a "secret" crush on Mikasa, so he always picks fights with Eren because he's jealous of the attention she gives him)

7. Marco Bodt (Nicest guy ever! He gave me some good advice when I felt ready to quit))

8. Connie Springer (Kind of a chicken but brave when the time comes)

9. Sasha Blouse (we called her potato girl because on her first day she got in trouble for eating a potato in front of Chief Instructor Shadis!) XD

10. Skye Keller (me!)

After the top 10 there was Krista Lenz, my close friend… Ymir who for some reason always gave me dirty looks when I was with Krista :/ and finally Armin Arlert … Armin is like a little brother since I have no family.

END OF INTRO

Today's the day, today we choose our squad I thought. Even though I had my mind all made up I couldn't help but think about what it would be like to join the other squads.

"Heeeey! Skyeeee! Helloooo!"

Someone was shaking my shoulder, It was Sasha. I spaced out we were in the cafeteria eating our last meal at the training camp. "Yes?" I said "what is it?"

"Ummm well you weren't eating your bread, can I have it!?" she said putting her hands together in a praying pose.

I sighed does she ever think of anything besides food … "Here you can have half!"

Her eyes lit up "THANKS!"

At that moment the rest of the gang walked in and started siting down with their trays. Today the food was much better than before and we got more rations because we made it through the tough training.

It was amazing since I never really had much to eat before I enlisted I never complained about the food but today's meal has got to be one of the best meals I've ever had since my family died.

"Hey Skye" I was once again brought out of my head and back into reality...

"You're here early! I know Sasha's always early for lunch to get the freshest food but you're usually always late!" said Connie

After hearing Connie, Eren pitched in "Yeah that's right! Where do you go anyways?"

Everyone was always curious about my past and me, maybe it's because even though everyone knows a little bit of each other's past I'm the only one who's still a mystery...I never spoke about my past because it was too painful and I wanted to forget...The only good memory I have was when I was saved from a Titan's grip by a man who had wings on his back and even that is a bit hazy, maybe I just dreamt it because when I awoke I was in a hospital bed.

"Umm...I-I... well I was.." I was a little reluctant to answer Eren … I didn't want anyone knowing about my special place and how I would sneak out of camp to watch the stars at night or the sunrise and sunset. At those moments I felt like I was the only person within the walls and I would always lose track of time.

I was the center of everyone's attention now.

Noticing my reluctance to answer Marco jumped in "u-umm so do any of you know which squad you will be choosing at tonight's ceremony?"

Jean was the first to answer "Huh? …Ohh well ofcourse the Military Police!" He said this as he put an arm around Annie and I "We didn't make top 10 to give up this chance! Right!? "

"Y-yeah I guess" I answered in a low voice... I was a little shy around people even my friends.

Jean kept on blabbing about living the good life within the walls and while Annie and I were removing Jean's arms off our shoulders I noticed Eren's expression... It was a serious one.

"I want to live in a safe place where I don't have to give a damn about Titans!"

* twitch* Eren's eyebrow twitched…His hands were balled into fists...

BAM! Jean was interrupted by a loud Bang ...Everyone looked at the direction of the sound

Eren had smacked his fists against the table

Jean was visibly annoyed at Eren's action "Hey! What's your deal man!? I'm talking here."

"If you want to live in a place that is truly safe and where you are free from the Titans then stop fantasizing about living within the inner walls to be save! 5 years ago wall Rose was considered the inner wall and now we run the risk of losing it! If you really want to be safe then get off your ass and do something about it and stop relying on others to do the dirty work!"

We all looked at Eren wide eyed…some of us felt ashamed because we wanted what Jean had been bragging about and others were determined more than ever to exterminate the Titans...

After that little outburst we all ate our meals in silence, thinking hard about our decision to join a squad.

The 104th trainees squad was here …we were all standing before a tall, well-built, blonde haired man... He introduced himself as Commander Erwin Smith of the Survey Corps. In his speech he didn't sugar coat anything he told us the percentage of death to expect and the situations we would face.

Geez! I thought he wanted more recruits but I think he managed to scare them off!...Still I can't help but wonder will I be able to join the Military Police with pride after Eren's speech...

The Commander finished his speech and the moment of truth was upon us.

What should I do!? I thought I've been through so much to join the Military Police and to have people respect and acknowledge me but is that really what I want to do? After my family was all killed by titans I had to resort to thievery to survive. Everyone saw me as a filthy-good for nothing street rat and I thought that the Military Police would get me the respect I wanted...but now... Ughh why did Eren have to say such dumb things right when I made up my mind!

One after another trainees were leaving left and right and who could blame them after the terrifying facts the Commander said about deaths and titan confrontations.

I looked around and noticed that ALL of my friends were also struggling with the decision to either go or stay…all but one…Annie... she was the only one who walked away to join the MP (Military Police).

As she passed by us I faintly heard her say "Would you die if you were asked to?...I choose to live" and with that she was gone.

Next to me Sasha and Krista were on the verge of tears... Connie, Jean, Marco and most of the guys were breaking into a cold sweat but not Eren, he was completely calm and composed...

God! What do I dooo!? I was frantically trying to hold back the tears, the anger and frustration within me because after I had made up my mind about the MP I was doubting myself now of all times!

This is do or die Skye! Get a grip After what felt like an eternity my mind was set...

…I composed myself, stood up straight and faced forward…I had made my decision…and apparently I wasn't the only one. All my friends …my second family… had decided as well…

At that moment little did I noticed that a very handsome, raven haired man, with eyes the color of steel, was watching me closely and studying my every move and reaction...A man with wings on his back...
