Prologue: I still don't know that far off place where the sun sets
Ever since the titan's appeared, humanity has surrounded its last remaining territory within three walls, from the outside, Wall Maria, Wall Rose, and Wall Sina. Within the most inner depths lies the capital, the center of all human activity, including government and economy. Elegant palaces line the outskirts of the capital, and those who live there are guaranteed a prosperous life.
However, even in the glamorous capital-no- perhaps because of that prosperity, there also exists a dark and twisted area. Beneath the towns that surround the capital is a vast underground living place, a secret underground city, where the most dangerous thugs and starving orphans live. Under the blue skies, spreading deep underground, lie the imperial capital and the Underground district.
According to ancient documents, it was once briefly proposed that humans lived underground in order to escape from the Titans. In the end, immigration was halted and the ruins of what remained became the home for criminals and destitute. The inner city now transformed into slums and was abandoned by the monarchy. Now, even the military police entering is frowned upon.
"I wonder where they're going!" a little red head girl said, pointing to the beautiful white doves flying away from them into the distance. She lay, with her hands supporting her head, under a hole that showed the clear blue skies. Though she could run away and flee to the world beyond the walls, she knows that would be impossible. There would be no place for her to go out there in the unfamiliar lands.
This place was one of their secret hideout. A place that was very serene. A small lake of water surrounded what seemed like a small island. Moss and wild grass crawled along the sides of the gaping hole and even one or two rare flowers were spotted here. The group had long since concluded that a titan's foot had crashed into the ground and smashed a hole in it.
"Far away," said the silver haired boy, sitting cross legged. "They can even fly to the other side of the wall. Using our gear, there are still places that we can't go." He said, dreamily.
"That's true," the girl said, "But you just wait! One day, we'll all go there together!" The silver haired boy almost laughed, yet even he wondered if that would be possible. How would it feel to be out there? What would await them on the other side of the walls? Flaming water? Frozen earth?
"Who knows, maybe we will!" A small brown haired boy leaned over her and smiled. His older twin smacked him in the forehead. "What was that for?!"
The older twin frowned. "You idiot, think more realistically. How will we get there? And even if we do, what will we do?"
"Hey! Don't hit Ellie, Johan. Be nicer to your lil'bro. You're lucky to still have a sibling." The girl said, growling as she dashed towards the older boy.
"Hold it, Isabelle." The silver haired boy went in between them and smiled as he saw a vein pulsing in the girl's forehead. He looked over at Johan, who was being pulled back by his brother.
"Let me slap some sense into him, Farlan. Johan is acting like a pussy and a BASTARD! What's wrong with dreaming, tough guy?" the girl, Isabelle, yelled.
"Let's not fight and actually enjoy the view, alright?" Farlan said sternly. It was more of a command than a question. The children settled down, still mumbling softly.
Behind them, like a shadow, stood the leader of their group, surveying the peculiar landscape with an uninterested face. He watched as they sat back down and he looked up at the beautiful blue skies above him. What he would do just to spend some time under the sun…
Suddenly, he walked up to the group and they all turned around at the sound of his boots crunching on the small coarse pebbles.
"Let's go," he said, in his low, soft voice.
The Underground city was a filthy place. Buildings crumbled and thugs, thieves, and murderers ran wild. Human trafficking happened in the lower parts of the city and no one was safe there. Yet, where could they go? As natives of the underground world, Isabelle, Farlan, Ellie, and Johan were all born and raised here. They knew every little hiding place, the parts of the city that had better supplies, and every little crack in the buildings yet they had never been outside, in the sunlight.
The city was old. It had been build hundreds of years before they lived. Built by desperate humans, seeking shelter and hoping to escape the titans, the city was once holy, ancient. Now it was just a place for the capital to throw their garbage. Every single person in their group was once on the verge of death before getting picked up by their leader.
Levi Ackerman. He found every single one of them. Picked them out of the streets, gave them food, and created a family. He was an honest man, yet he never did tell them about his past. Levi was a mysterious man and was the level headed person in the group. He had never said that he was the leader, but it just seemed right for him to be.
Usually, Farlan would give ideas and calm Levi down, because the quiet leader was an impulsive man. He didn't care if an insult was said about him, but once, a gang from the lower groups cornered Ellie and beat him raw and blue. It took the group all they had in order for Levi not to rip them limb from limb.
They knew Levi had no intension of gaining fame, but because they had to fight in order to survive, Levi and his gang became known throughout the city. His inhuman strength and his quick feet became legend. Soon, in the year that Isabelle became a teen, everyone had heard of the small man with the power of a hundred men.
The gang walked through the main part of the city that was next to the natural lake underground. Their dark blue cloaks flapped in unison as they walked together in the same one-two-two formation. All around them, people were staring. Levi's group was one of the few who didn't look like they lacked anything. They didn't look as though they would fall over from the hunger, or drop unconscious from lack of water.
In the city, everyone had suffered at least one night, where they had to drink sewer water or die from dehydration. Though food and love were always on low supply, death and gloom were always in stock.
Levi always walked ahead of the group, leading them. He walked on, head held high, yet that wasn't the reason why people stared at him. Despite his looks and pride, the people stared at him, envied him because he walked with purpose.
The small man wasn't classically handsome, and he was certainly not very pretty. He was more exotic. Levi would make a king look like an ant for his look was so intimating and intense. Once Ellie joked that Levi's glare would turn people into ashes and let's just say, Ellie arms were so sore by the end of the day, he couldn't even hold up a piece of cotton.
All the other gangs knew that they would never be able to get him so they envied, hated, and cursed them instead.
The raven strode on, past the people loading carts full of supplies. Levi brushed by a man who was walking on the opposite side of the road. Suddenly, the man fell to the ground and began to scream.
"That hurt! OW! OW! Oi! Hold it right there." He yelled, clutching his arm. "Oi! Shorty over there with the long hair! Aren't you gonna excuse yourself after bumping into me? Are ye deaf, Shorty?!"
Levi's face remains impassive as he continued down the road. Citizens stared wide eyed at the commotion.
"Dude's yowling over some bogus accident." Isabelle said, surprise written over her face. Farlan grinned. Let's see what happens, he thought.
Apparently, the man causing the ruckus had no idea who in the world he was dealing with. Ellie and Johan followed behind Levi and tried to suppress their giggling. Oh no- the man had no idea who he was going up against.
One of the men, who probably recognized Levi's gang, stepped forward. "Hey, you guys better stop," he warned. "They're-" Before he could finish his sentence, the crazy man pulled out a pistol and aimed at Levi's head.
"Hey! Are you askin' for a HOLE IN YER HEAD?!" He pulled the safety latch off and pointed it threatens at Levi's group. Levi paused when he heard Ellie draw in a quick intake of breath.
Farlan frowned. "We don't have time for this bullshit."
"No we don't" Johan replied.
Only Isabelle didn't think it was bad idea to waste time on the man. "Well…But isn't this perfect timing for a warm-up before work?" She said.
Levi's hand reached into his cloak and clenched his weapon tightly in his hand. Ka-chank. His hand felt the smooth metal and immediately, it made him stronger. As if he could do anything…The moment the man shot at Levi with the gun, he was ready. The small man pulled the sword out a bit and the bullet was reflected off the blade. The lead bullet shot back at the man and hit the barrel behind him.
There was a sickening SMASH and the wine from the barrels spilled out and splinters shot out.
The people around them were astonished by the show before them and watched in horror, fascination, and admiration as the small man leaped up and ran for the crazy man. In the crowd, a certain blond haired man pushed his way past the crowd and paused at the scene before him.
"SHIT!"The man yelled. He shot multiple shots at Levi, yet missed. Then, Levi jumped up into the air and a wild gasp of disbelief came from the crowd.
"That bastard's flying…!" The man gasped. His subordinates raced up to help him, yet they too were stunned at the sight before them.
As they still stood, stunned, Levi's small body propelled forward with inhuman speed and his foot fell hard into the giant subordinate's stomach. The huge man groaned and fell down.
There was silence as Levi stood up. "Oi," he said, looking back at his group. "Next up is the giant." He kicked and stomped on the man's head and looked at Isabelle who was jumping with excitement.
Immediately, Ellie, Johan, Farlan, and Isabelle brought the rest of the men down.
"Heh heh," Isabelle giggled as she stood on top of one of the men. Johan shrugged.
"Well that was a waste of time. I'm taking the high route." With that he jumped up and allowed himself to be dragged away by the 3d maneuver gear. Levi and the others followed suit, but just before they disappeared, Levi looked back. Everyone was staring at him, yet he only caught eyes with one specific person; a man wearing the sign of the Survey Corps.
He knew it was strange. The man's blond hair flowed in the wind and his face was gentle enough, but…there was something different about the look in his eyes that was different to the people around him.
The man's eyes were telling him something. As if he got what he was expecting and more. It chilled Levi to the bone. His look was as if he knew something that Levi didn't and it scared him…
The two who meet…with freedom in their hearts.
