"Airi…Airi…AIRI!"
"Mgnn…" I groaned, as I squinted in the morning rays. I had snuck out and climbed the wall to take a nap. There's no way I could hang around those idiots any longer than I do now.
"Karen," I asked, "what are you doing up here?"
"Well I had some important, urgent information that I had to tell you. So when you weren't in your room, I expected that you were up here."
"So you, the princess, climbed all the way up here. On top of Wall Sina, just because you had something to tell me?" I asked in my "REALLY?" voice.
"Airi," she complained, "this is really important news. I heard that Commander Erwin from the Survey Corps is coming later to request your transfer to the Survey Corps."
"What?!" I yelled jumping up from my spot on the wall.
"Commander Erwin wants me to transfer? But I've never heard of anyone transferring."
"That's what I heard," she said simply.
"That's perfect! I can finally get out of this Hell-Hole. This…this is my chance, I Have to take this offer! No more stuck up, cocky idiots."
"I'm truly happy for you Ai (Ai is her nickname that Karen calls her), but my father especially against it. He does not wish to lose you; you're one of his best soldiers."
"Hmm… that is a problem." I said, "but I have to get out."
"Is there some way you could possibly threaten him in a way?" She asked.
I thought for a second, "….. I could hold a knife to my throat. Maybe play the use to humanity card, either way I'm going to die making a difference or I'll die because of their stubbornness."
"Hmm, I don't know if that's enough to make him fold. Let me help, he'll definitely agree. He couldn't let me kill myself, he'll have to accept." Karen said with a smile on her face.
"Karen?!" I said alarmed by her proposal. "What do you mean?"
"I'm telling you to use me in your plan Ai. I'm begging you," She said bowing.
"Ah fine, but please don't bow. I'm not fully okay with this, but if you willing I guess it can't hurt.
"Trust me Airi, I'll help you in any way I can. If you really want to leave I'll do everything in power to make sure you get there." She promised holding my hands.
I smiled gratefully, "Thank you Karen,"
She simply smiled back, "Now let's get planning. If you're leaving today we have to go big."
~ Later ~
I was lazily staring out the window, savoring my view of the town. After we finished planning how I would get transferred, we both split up and went back to our rooms to wait until Commander Erwin arrived.
My music box was propped open on the windowsill, and was playing the lovely tune from my childhood. A tune… from my childhood, the very thought brought back heartbreaking memories. I cringed and hugged myself, the pain in my heart excruciating. Then I remembered that those painful memories happened long-ago. Back when I was weak and naïve to the world around me. However now I was stronger and smarter, and I would NEVER let another thing like "that happen again.
Knock Knock
They have finally arrived.
"Hold on, "I called through the door. I quickly shut my music box and set it carefully on my desk. I proceeded to close the window and open the door. A familiar face stood on the other side of the door.
Kyle, one of the only other person in the Military Police that I respected, unlike most of the others he wasn't naïve. Kyle had a younger sister named Violet, his parent died when he was 6 years old. So he and Violet were sent to live with their grandfather. But his grandfather was rather strict and harsh, and Kyle had to endure numerous hours of demanding work and pain to ensure Violet's well being.
And when the titans broke through the wall his number one priority was to make sure Violet would get to safety. Even if the task required his life, in spite of this, with all the people panicking on the streets. Her hand slipped out of his, and they were separated from each other.
After he managed to free himself from the crowds of people, he went back to search for her. He did eventually find her, but she was dead impaled on a large piece of wood through her left side. A gash starting on her fore head covering her left eye.
He desperately tried to recover her body, but in the end was forced to run by a titan. And ever since he has hated himself, blaming himself for her death.
"Hey Kyle," I said, "you going to be my escort or something?"
He nodded his chocolate bangs falling over his matching eyes. I stepped through the door frame and closing the heavy oak door behind me. We walked down the halls in silence, until he broke it.
"You're going to accept it aren't you?" He said looking me into my eyes.
I smirked, but my eyes softened, I heaved a heavy sigh and said, "You know I would do anything Kyle. This place is a prison, confining me forever in the dark. I won't survive much longer in the dark, I promised my sister that I would survive and live on. But I also promised that I would fight, and if I did die I wouldn't die in for nothing."
"I-I have to do this," I stuttered.
Okay so this is a new story that I have recently started. I think I'll continue it, but it will be a while until I update it. Since I usually have a bunch of writing already done for the next chapter. This will take some time to catch up. But please let me know what you think of it so far.
Disclaimer- I don't own anything that has to do with Attack On Titan or Shingeki No Kyojin. Whichever you prefer.
