I blearily woke up to feeling myself being picked up in a giant hand, opening my eyes to see some strange creature staring at me with me in it's hands. I glared at the being, easily freeing myself by forcing it's hand open and, grabbing it's wrist, still floating in the air, I flipped it to over my shoulder with one hand comically, making it crash into the ground as I did it repeatedly before pulling out my knife and, it glowing blue, a blue giant silhouette of it's blade appeared, and I used it to cut the creature's head off.
"Stupid thing." I grumbled, putting the knife so it was hidden in my sweaters sleeve and floating to the ground, looking around the area I was in, it being a forest with very large trees.
I walked around, going where I felt something that actually has some sapience, looking down at the figure on the ground. "Wake up." I demanded, kicking them.
"Ow!" He yelled jumping up. "The fuck!?"
"Why are you sleeping in a forest?" I asked. "They're giant things around, and they seem hostile… so it's not exactly the best idea."
"I was trying to rest after my training." He sighed.
"Okay… where are we?" I asked, looking around.
"The Titans forest, I've been training here to hone my skills. I seem to be the only human that can fight a Titan one on one." He said. "Names Jordan by the way."
"You may call me Rindie… and, behind you." I added, calmly watching a couple Titans come up from behind him.
"Cool, more training." He said as a Titan tried to punch him, he just held up a hand and when the Titan's fist hit him… he didn't budge. "Pathetic, that last one I fought was way tougher." He said as he simply crushed the Titan's hand. He vanished and reappeared behind the first cutting of its head, a ball of light appeared in his other disintegrating the second. "Wanna go to the city?" He asked me as he landed.
"Sure." I said, shrugging carelessly.
"Ok follow me." He said as we walked to the city. "So you know how you got here?"
"I dunno." I lied easily, shrugging carelessly, following behind the person.
"If you don't want to tell me you could say so." He said looking at me smirking.
"It's not a total lie… I wasn't even aiming for coming here." I said, semi truthfully.
"Hmm… ok, so are you leaving soon or?" He asked as we walked.
"I seem to be stuck around here for a while… I'm a little weaker than normal." I mumbled to him, fiddling with the locket around my neck.
"You need a place to stay?" He asked.
"That'd be appreciated." I told him, putting the locket under my sweater.
"Don't worry about it, everyone around here thinks I'm a freak it'll be nice to have someone to talk to." He said as we got to a city with a wall.
I noticed a Titan about to grab at some people that were coming to the wall on horses, head twitching a little as a yellow light seemed to flare from beneath my hair, a lightning bolt striking the Titan down and me believingly acting startled at the sudden bolt.
"That was cool, how'd you do it?" Jordan asked.
"I didn't do anything." I said, it being technically true… I just ordered the cloud to.
"Hmm, neat." Jordan said as he jumped over the wall.
I frowned, looking around and, seeing a gate, started heading there, still acting powerless… because it was fun.
"Who are you?" A guard asked me.
"My name is Rindie… could you let me in? I don't want any Titans eating me." I asked, acting scared, the guard falling for it.
"Of course." The guard said blushing a little for some reason as he let me in. I was confused at this, since my body was currently in it's more teenaged form, and thus couldn't be told from being a boy or girl, but I shrugged internally and went in, looking around.
"Hey!" Jordan's voice called from my left.
"Why'd you leave me out there?" I asked, crossing my arms over my chest.
"I went back once I realized I did, but you already went to the gate." He said grinning. "I noticed the guard blush… I'm sorry but are you a boy or girl?"
"I'm neither." I told him.
He blinked once. "Ok… what's that mean exactly?"
"I have both genitals." I told him, shrugging.
"Oh, ok." Jordan said blinking again. "I live over here." He said pointing to a building.
"Cool." I said, walking over and entering the building and, since I was a little dirty from my dirt nap, immediately headed towards the bathroom, closing the door behind me. I took off my sweater, gray t-shirt, brown pants and black socks and shoes, setting them on the sink counter and starting the shower up, waiting for it to get to a good temperature.
"Hey Rindie do you want me to…" Jordan asked walking in before noticing I was naked. "Wash your clothes…?" He asked blushing a little trying not to look down.
I yelped, blushing furiously and hopping into the shower, pulling the curtain up to block his view of me and my scars (thankfully only the least bad ones were visible, because of an illusion I had up). "G-get out!" I shouted embarrassedly, internally glad the water was ready.
"S-sorry!" He said grabbing my clothes and running out the door.
I stayed in the shower, sitting down and shaking a little, a little shaken from him randomly coming in on me.
"S-sorry again!" He called from the other side of the door. "I'm not used to anyone being in here but me… I knew you were in there but I instinctively opened the door."
"I-it's okay, I-i guess." I told him, standing and starting to clean myself. I heard the door open again before a blur went to the toilet and then back out closing the door again.
"T-those are clean clothes, that you can use until yours are clean… and I didn't look I swear." Jordan said.
"S-sure, t-thanks." I stuttered, holding my locked, since I never took it off, it giving me comfort.
"Y-you're not that… bad to look at by the way." Jordan said shakingly.
"I thought you said you didn't look!" I shouted, blushing dark red.
"I meant the first time!" He yelled back. I quickly finished, throwing the clothes, a black turtleneck that was too big on me and some blue jeans, on, coming out of the bathroom, not looking at him.
"Your clothes will be done soon." He said. "They'll be done in an hour or so."
"O-okay." I stuttered, shyly shuffling past him and into the living room, curling up on a recliner.
"W-want a blanket?" He asked looking away. I nodded, yawning a tiny bit. "You know, I'm sorry, but I did see you… down there, I actually thought you were joking about that." He said throwing a blanket on me, before going to the bathroom himself a deep blush on his face.
I blushed, curling the blanket around me so only my face was showing, snuggling into a comfortable position. I heard the water from the shower again, and Jordan humming.
I decided to get revenge, smirking as I snuck up there, peeking inside at him and blushing, him having forgotten to move the shower curtain him having a decent… 'package', down there. He had scrapes and scratches on his chest, and a soft smile on his face. He continued to hum a song that I didn't really recognize, when he began washing his hair I saw a severe cut down his side with stitches.
"What happened?" I whispered, wondering how he got the scar, whispering it to myself.
"A Titan." He responded looking at me. "You can come in, I knew you were there the whole time."
I eeped in embarrassment… before deciding to book it, going back to the recliner and hiding in the blanket.
"You ok?" Jordan asked coming out of the shower not dressed.
"Embarrassed." I told him, voice muffled through the blanket, me not able to see him right now. I heard him laugh a bit, before tapping my shoulder.
"It's not that big a deal, I'll answer any questions you have." He said before I heard him leave, coming back a few minutes later.
"How'd you get the scar?" I asked, sitting up, face peeking from the blanket to see him clothed now.
"Like I said a Titan, a big one." He said sitting in another recliner. "When I first got here I got picked up by a Titan and it tried to eat me, I panicked and that's when I realized I had powers and as it bit down on my side I killed it. It only bit a small bit if my side and I'll have the scar forever." Jordan said turning on a tv.
I contemplated something, reaching into a pocket on the pants and, something green briefly under my hair that was covering my left eye, I held out a small green pill to him.
"What is it?" He asked taking it.
"Take it." I said, him doing so, the scar on his side briefly glowing… before vanishing, leaving smooth skin.
"Sweet… why not use it on yourself?" He asked gesturing to my chest, where most of my scars were hidden by the turtleneck
"I keep my scars as a… reminder, and that's all I feel like saying." I told him, looking down and going silent.
"Oh, ok I appreciate what you did." He said smiling sweetly.
"Welcome." I said simply, yawning and lying on the arm of the recliner, eyes drooping.
He chuckled before getting up, and then picked me up. "I think you should take my bed, I'll take the recliner."
"Okay." I mumbled, too tired to argue. He set me on his bed, before looking at me.
"Sorry again, and you can stay here as long as you want." He smiled. I never heard him say this, already asleep, smiling as my head was on the pillow.
A/N: So, trying again, this time with a character I can do better!
