The First Time I Met Levi Ackerman

:Epilogue:

The first time I met Levi Ackerman was at school.
After school.
Outside the nurse's office.
In only a hospital gown.
Barefooted.
With blood pooling around my feet.
It was perfect timing.
Time of the month.
But it wasn't what it seemed.
I stood there, in front of the new guy.
Helpless.
Speechless.
Restless.
The first time I met Levi Ackerman, I wanted nothing more than to die.
.
.
.
And I did.
.
.
.
:The First Time:
.
I didn't know what they were planning.
My relatives, that is.
I lost my parents in a Titan expedition.
They were scientists.
Long-lost and very much loved scientists.
Once I heard of their deaths, I didn't cry.
I knew being a scientist had its perks.
Whether it'd be good news or not.
I didn't doubt that the mission would succeed.
I just hoped it would.
This time round.
But…
Everyone labeled me as weird.
No one understood why.
They began to resent me.
But…
I had to be strong.
I had to stay strong.
For my parents.
For me.
And for humanity.
Because the apple didn't fall far from the tree.
Now I am the number one smartest person.
In Wall Maria.
And of Maria High Academy.
.
.
And I had many enemies.
Not rivals.
Enemies.
.
.
I was too alike my parents.
Too smart for teachers.
For my peers.
And they didn't like that.
I didn't pay too much mind to what they thought.
I didn't really need to.
But maybe I should've.
.
.
I was too jaded for them.
So, they got tired of me.
The teachers came up with a plan.
The townspeople turned a blinds' eye.
My relatives signed the papers.
Brought me in.
Sent me to the nurses' office.
Said it was for my own good.
Said that I just needed a check-up.
Said that I'd be fine.
.
.
They forgot to mention that…
It'd hurt.
It'll leave scars.
Mentally.
Feels like I'm being torn apart!
Physically.
"No! Stop it! I don't want this!"
Spiritually.
A little part of me died that day.
.
.
Nine hours previously.
The school bell rang.
All students went to their respected classrooms.
I didn't.
I skipped.
Instead, I climbed the tree aside the clock tower.
I could see the third story.
My science room.
Wannabes, roaming about.
Test tubes in hand.
Measurements in the other.
Goggles on.
Just like me.
Though, mine are always on my head.
A little gift my parents left behind.
But sometimes, I wish they hadn't.
Left me behind.
Left me something to remind me of them.
I wish they…
.
.
.
Lunch time went quickly.
Unlike most days.
Isolated at a table.
No friends.
Just enemies.
Even the freshmen fled from me.
As if I had the plague.
But I was used to it.
Having lived hell through three years in Maria High Academy.
Just one more year to go.
Before graduation.
Then I'm gone.
Gone from this town.
Gone from everyone's life.
Gone from this life.
.
.
.
Or so I thought.
The hours seemed to slow when I reached Home Economics.
Projects were due.
Mine were unmade.
I failed the assignment.
I was called out.
By the teacher.
Said I wasn't anything special.
Said that I stunk to what I do.
Said I needed an attitude adjustment.
Said…Said…Said…
.
.
Thankfully, though, I was pulled out of class.
My relatives were in the office.
With a signature pen in their hands.
And the headmaster holding two white, crisp papers.
Maybe they wanted me to drop out.
I was fine with that.
I was fine with doing anything just to get out of this school.
But I didn't know how much I wished to take back my words.
.
.
.
But it happened.
I entered the nurses' office after school.
For a check-up that needed to be done.
I laid on a white foam bed.
Legs hidden behind a white curtain.
The nurse out of sight.
I wondered what this procedure was for.
I wondered why the light in the office was dimmed.
I wondered why the air felt tensed.
I wondered why my eyes grew weary.
I wondered why I felt skin on skin.
I wondered why I heard snickers and moans.
.
Then I felt it.
I felt this sheer pain pierce through my body.
And I screamed.
.
I thrashed like a kid throwing a tantrum.
I called for help.
For my parents.
For someone…a
Anyone…
Out there…
To come save me.
.
But there was no one like that here.
In Wall Maria.
In Maria High Academy.
No one to accept me.
No one to save me.
No one to rival me.
And as I laid on the white foam bed.
I didn't cry.
I made up my mind.
I had to stay strong.
I had to remain smart.
I won't let myself fall for anyone and their tricks.
I must not let them see me cry.
Because I couldn't let them win.
Because I couldn't let them be satisfied.
To what they did.
To me.
.
I wasn't going to let anyone in.
Into my heart.
Into my mind.
Into my soul.
Not even the new guy.
The guy everyone has been gushing over.
For the past month.
The strongest fellow.
In Wall Maria.
In Maria High Academy.
Levi Ackerman.
