One: A New Job

~ "Starting a new job is always scary, or at least for me it's always scary. It's like the first day of school." –Sean Maher ~

Mikasa Ackerman walked towards the Hospital claiming to be the best in all of Sina. She had been through a lot and everything was starting to get back to normal both her and friend, Levi. She took a deep breath and fixed the strap on her shoulder, the doors sliding open for her.

Multiple people walked throughout the entrance, most with clip boards and wearing clean white nurses and doctors outfits. Their hair pinned back with worried stretched across their faces as she moved the main desk where a familiar face greeted her.

"Mikasa Ackerman," Erwin Smith, a blond tall man who stood above others with his height of 6'2". He is respected from practically every person in Sina besides a few who could easily be wiped across the floor. He wore a white doctor's uniform with a laminated name tag along with a pair of keys hanging around his neck.

Mikasa managed to pull off a smile towards the man and held her hand out towards him, both of them shaking in pleasure. He smiled at her and released her, motioning her to follow him to a private room. She walked next to him as he nodded to other workers who rushed passed them like they were nothing but fleas.

He opened a door to a different room where the lights were off until Erwin flicked them on. White surrounded them as the door closed her, she stared at the one desk and two chair at separate ends of the table.

"Take a seat." He said and she nodded, choosing a seat and sat down. He pulled his chair towards the desk and he spilled out multiple papers for her to fill out. She down at the long contract convulsing multiple places to sign her name and he placed a pen down on the table.

"Are you sure you want this job, Ms. Ackerman?" he asked before she even picked up the quill. She raised an eyebrow at him with a small smirk on her face.

"Why? Is there zombies?" she joked and he smiled at her, laughing at her joke.

"No, no." he replied and waved his hand a bit, "It is company policy that ask that before someone starts signing the papers." She shrugged at this and picked the pen, uncapping it and placed it gently down on the page. Then she started signing.

"Here's your uniform, Mikasa." Krista Lenz said, the cheerful nurse smiling as she handed the white nurse uniform to her. Mikasa stared at it for a bit before taking it out of the girl's hands and moved to the bathroom to change. She opened the black door and flipped the light switch on, staring at the same stall with only a toilet and sink with two hooks. She sighed and stripped off her clothes, standing with only her tan bra and red panties. She shivered at the cold then grabbed the outfit, slipping it on and buttoning it.

"I heard we got a new recruit, Krista." A voice said very loudly and Krista sighed. Mikasa waited for her to the reply back to the other voice and slowly redressed to listen for the conversion.

"Indeed, Ymir," Krista said back and Mikasa narrowed her eyes, "She's nice though. You don't have to be rough on her. She's been through a lot and is still sensitive about the topic so no snooping around." Ymir, Mikasa noted to be the other girl, sighed loudly and stomping over to the lockers.

"Whatever," she muttered and that was when Mikasa decided to step out of the bathroom. Krista stared at her then sighed big at the site of Krista being cornered by another girl with short dark hair pulled back in a ponytail with freckles dotting her cheeks and light chocolate eyes glared at her. She wore a doctor's outfit instead of a nurse's and stood tall against Krista who had a huge blush on her face.

"M-M-M-M-Mikasa!" Krista exclaimed and Mikasa couldn't help but stare at the two in surprise. She gulped and looked away, a small blush on her face.

"Sorry," she said and gulped, "I didn't mean to walk in on anything." Ymir smirked at this and walked over to her, placing a hand on her shoulder.

"That's fine. Just keep it our dirty little secret, kay?" she said and she blinked then nodded. Ymir turned back to Krista and grabbed her hand, gripping it tightly in her own.

"Doctor Smith told me to assign you at Wing B for helping injections." Ymir told her and Mikasa nodded, putting her clothes back in her old cruddy locker. She walked past them and ignored their whispers and giggles of love.

"Needle, nurse." Doctor Smith demanded and Mikasa stared at the sharp object before handing it off to him. The patient they were working on claimed to have internal bleeding and they needed to put him under amnesiacs before cutting him open like food. She stared at the liquid squeezing into the patient's bloodstream, putting him under sleep.

"Ms. Ackerman," Erwin said and pulled his surgeon mask up over his mouth and covered his nose. Mikasa stayed silent until he narrowed his eyes at her, forcing her to move back out of the room. She scowled and followed orders, closing the door behind her and stood out in the hallway. Nurses and doctors passed her by one by one with individual sheets, some more red and descriptive than others.

"Nurse Ackerman!"

She turned to her voice being called and saw a new doctor, Doctor Armin Arlet, once her old friend in childhood. He towered over her height of 5'6" by five inches and blond hair slicked back in a ponytail with wide blue eyes but they always held a solution to any problem. His white doctor's coat flapped up from his running but his nametag stayed still. He heaved for breath as he stopped merely inches from and held out a clipboard for her.

"Nurse Ackerman," he panted and wiped the sweat off his brow, "Do you mind helping Doctor Ymir with a difficult patient? She requested you help hold him down."

She narrowed her eyes at this, unsure what to answer due to the fact that it was her first day on the job and she barely knew what do anyway. She nodded at him and he gave a pearl white smile before running off again while calling out, "She's in Room 332!"

She turned towards the dark hallway ahead and sighed, hugging the clipboard tight to her chest. She barely knew around but managed to get there with a few of the other nurses help. Her heart pounded against her chest and stopped at Room 332, grasping the doorknob in her hand and turned it in.

Her eyes widen at the sight of blood splattered and dressed across every nurse and doctor. Ymir stared at her with impatient eyes who motioned her to move in. a large surgeon mask covered face splotched with drops of red and a hair net covering her head. The patient's skin peeled back to reveal a beating heart and ribcage covering it with muscle tissue. Many nurses white uniform danced in blood and some strange green liquid. They all held no emotion on their face as they passed the needle and held the skin back.

"Yo," Ymir said and held her hand out, pointing out to a rusted pair of scissors, "You signed the papers. So pass me the blade, Mikasa Ackerman."
