A/N: Hello, everyone! This a short little story that Ubermarine planned out literally a LOOOOOOOONNNNNNNGGGGGGG time ago. Of course, it's another EreMika story, but this might be more like a fluff. Of course, that's all I might be able to write right now, considering what happened to my smuts. T-T
I did post the 3DMG smut on Tumblr. I went on and tried to fix the link to my main Tumblr dash, but I'll go back and provide one for the smut.
Anyway, enjoy this story that's been a long time in the making.
Sorry for any OOC stuff.
Nine year old Mikasa ran from Eren quickly, trying to get away from the green eyed boy before he caught up. He'd almost caught her a couple of times, and now he wasn't too far from her. Soon enough he'd catch up.
But Mikasa wasn't one to give up easily. She picked up her speed as she zoomed around the tree that she'd come across. Rather than tire herself out, Mikasa quickly jumped into a nearby bush.
Eren thought he'd had her where he wanted her. She'd seemed ready to just surrender, getting tired after all the running from trying to escape him.
After he rounded the corner that she'd just turned into, Eren skidded to a halt when he didn't see her. Eren's eyebrows knitted together in confusion.
"Mikasa?" Eren called out to his friend. "Where are you?"
At first, he was worried that something had happened to her. That she might've tripped somewhere or someone might have kidnapped her. But when he saw the leaves of the bushes move, he knew exactly where she was. However, he pretended to look for her anxiously.
"Mikasa?" He continued to call in a worried tone. "Where are you?"
He walked back in the direction he came from, but instead of continuing down the path, Eren hid behind the tree.
'Think you can out smart me, huh?' He laughed to himself.
Mikasa waited patiently as her friend searched for her, giggling. All she had to do was wait for him to say the word, then she'd come out of hiding. After a few minutes of waiting, the silence still continued as she sat listening for Eren's voice.
However, the lonely woods soon grew spooky to the nine year old girl, especially without her playmate nearby. At first, she tried to ignore it. But as time dragged on and Eren was no where to be seen or heard, Mikasa decided to come out of hiding.
"Eren?" She called. No answer.
'He must've thought that I'd given up and went home.'
She slowly began to walk back to the path where she'd turned off. Her fingers clutched at her scarf as she ambled along the dirt, scared. The leaves crunched beneath her feet, and any sudden snap of a twig made her jump slightly.
She had just made it to the big tree when suddenly...
"GOT YOU!"
"EEEEK!" Mikasa shrieked as she backed away hurriedly, tripping over a tree root and landing on her bottom.
"Mikasa?" She heard Eren's voice ask. She looked up to meet his bright green eyes looking into hers. He kneeled down in front of her, his face seeming worried.
"Are you okay?"
"You...you..." Mikasa stammered. "You scared me!"
"Really?" Eren asked, seeming to grow proud of himself. "I didn't think that you even got scared..."
"It isn't funny, Eren!" Mikasa cried as she stood up quickly.
"Come on, Mikasa!" Eren said. "I'm sorry! Don't be upset!"
He reached out and put a hand on her shoulder, only to have it be shrugged off by her. He began to get worried about how much he'd upset her. The last thing he wanted was for her to be mad at him.
"Mikasa, I'm sorry." Eren repeated, this time trying to hug her. At first, she refused him but after he kept persisting, she soon relaxed.
"Forgive me...please?" The boy asked as he continued to hug his friend.
"Well...okay." Mikasa replied. "I couldn't stay mad at you, Eren."
The young boy grinned at her happily. "Thanks, Mikasa."
Eren suddenly felt a drop of water land on his cheek from the sky. Both he and Mikasa looked up to find that the blue sky was now grey and that it looked as if it was fixing to rain.
Both quickly scanned the area for shelter, until Eren spotted a nearby cave, taking Mikasa by the hand.
The two children ran toward the cave, in order to take shelter from the pouring rain. As the rain steadily grew harder, Eren began to grow restless and began to wander around the small area. It wasn't long before the boy found the small tunnel in the back.
Eren entered the small empty tunnel, with Mikasa behind him, following it until they came across, oddly enough, a door. The boy looked to his companion, whose face mirrored his own confusion.
"This is a stange place for a door." Eren said aloud, voicing both of their thoughts.
The young girl nodded in agreement, moving just a little closer to him. "Come on, lets get out of here."
Eren didn't hear her however, instead reaching out to turn the door handle before gently pushing it open. The door swung open, and before Eren and Mikasa was a room filled with unfamiliar machinery.
The young boy walked in, full of curiosity at the sight before him. Mikasa slowly followed behind him, her hands buried in the red scarf draped around her neck. Where ever they were, she was having uneasy feelings. Suddenly, she heard a light beeping sound and turned around to see that Eren had pressed a button.
The entire room lit up shortly after that, leaving Eren amazed. He practically jumped around the room in excitement while Mikasa continued to walk around cautiously.
"Hey, Mikasa!" Eren called to her from across the room. "Come check this out!"
Mikasa looked at him anxiously. "Eren, we really should go ba-"
The young brunette immediately ran over and grabbed his friend by the wrist, pulling her behind him. Giving a sigh, she gave up on trying to convince him otherwise.
She followed Eren into a white room with metal tubes sticking out all over the place. It was even stranger than the last room they had been in. Needless to say, it didn't help Mikasa's nerves.
They weren't far inside when all of a sudden, the steel door to the room closed on them. Eren and Mikasa both ran to the door, grabbing hold of the handle and trying to pull it open.
"It's locked!" Eren exclaimed."What's going on?!"
An odd female voice suddenly came from nowhere. The kids looked for a person as she said a few things, but they neither found her nor understood what she had said. A blindingly bright liight appeared from the tubes in the room, and shortly after both children blacked out.
A/N: Well, I hope that was good for a first chapter. Tune in soon for chapter two!
Sorry for taking so long on this, Ubermarine.
