"Dad!" You ran towards the man whom you called your father, who bent down to reach your height, and gave him a loving hug to which he returned. "Hey, kiddo. How are you feeling?" He asked, lightly scratching you scalp. He poked and probed his hands over your body: arms, legs, back, chest, neck; checking if you had sustained any injuries. "I'm okay, I wasn't bullied today." You said faking a smile as you hid the fact that you did get bullied today. Just not like two weeks ago. Remembering the injury you had to the forehead, you instinctively held it in your tiny left hand, frowning at the pain that you felt when the rock made impact to it.

The man sighed and gave you another bear hug, making you feel secure. He lifts you up and you grabbed on to him, clinging on him as he made his way to your home. As your father opened the door, your mother turned around to see both of you and smiled. The cozy atmosphere made your heart skip a beat. You were happy, even if they weren't your blood parents; they looked out for you and cared. Your dad then carefully set you on the floor and was leaving.

Your (e/c) eyes widen at your father's departure and you ran after him finding out that you weren't able to catch up him. You saw him disappear then darkness surrounded you and engulfed you. You felt yourself being shaken and opened your eyes to see yourself on the boat.

You breathed in and out, shallow, uneven and shaky breath as you check around you. Hannes was right beside you, a hand on your shoulder. You blinked and your felt tiny beads sliding on your face. "Are you okay? Are you hurting anywhere? You were squirming and I got worried. You had a nightmare? " He checked your arms, legs and back to see where the piece wood infiltrated your skin. You flinched every now at the pain and then and remembered your dad all so very clearly, you smiled and cried at the thought.

You let out a small laugh, "No, I remembered some memories of the past. I remembered Dad, mom and our house. I still have mom but that house… " You sighed at the thought. "The way you are checking for injuries reminds me of dad too, I'd get bullied horribly when I was a kid, since I am an 'Outsider'. There was this one time, some kids threw rocks at me and one struck my forehead, I ran away as fast as I could and tripped. My knees were scrapped and I was bloodied. " Your superior's eyes soften at the tale and remind silent.

You continued smiling, "I was so scared going home because I was warned not to talk about the outside and some word escaped my mouth. The kids were calling many names, including demon. I panicked so bad that I ran and ran not caring about getting lost and eventually, I found myself in the 'bad' part of town. I was afraid, so I hid in an alleyway." The blond man was listening and really was curious about your past. "Between two crates, I sat. I brought my knees to my chest and rocked myself, trying to calm my senses but I was lost. Then someone saw me and I was afraid, thinking about all the things a person could do to you in these parts of town. I closed my eyes and someone came to me and saved me, the end". You smiled at Hannes who was dumbstruck. "Oh jeez, I wanted to know who saved you!?" You giggled at his reaction. "That's my little secret! All I can say is that he was in a gang but he is actually pretty nice once you get to know him."

As you conversed with the older man, the boat came to a halt and you saw that you were about to disembark. Your superior got up as you were going to but you felt no strength. When you tried to get up, you felt the splinter in your legs and fell back on your butt. "tch" You were annoyed at yourself.

Your close friend turned his back to you and bend, putting a knee on the floor. You crawled to him and threw your arm on his shoulders and he rose up slowly, holding your legs. "Thank you for taking care of me, Hannes. I'm so sorry for burdening you like this." You murmured to him. "Don't worry about it, kid. I'm happy you survived. I am sure Eren, Mikasa, Armin and your mom are going to be happy too." You sniffed loudly, "Thank you." You cried on his shoulder, not caring about the guys in the garrison looking at you. So this is trost, eh?

As he carried you out the boat, you saw many injured soldier but you didn't see many of the recruits that were with you in 103, your heart sunk. So those who were in garrison are all dead. You sighed, the weirdos went in recon, 2nd to 10th went in police and the rest chose garrison and they're all dead. You bite your lower lip at the thought. I don't understand how all of this happened. Those unordinary titans, they just appeared and disappeared. You were as confused as angry at those titans; you saw some soldier and asked them where the refugee camp was.

One of the soldier retorted, "Why do you want to know that?" The nerve of that guy, you sneered and glared at him, "Because I have to find some people." You grabbed his collar and brought his face to yours, "TELL .ME .OR .I .WILL .MAKE .YOU .SORRY ." The Red haired soldier stuttered, frightened, "Y-you walk st-straight then y-you make an r-r-right turn, but be advised, Kitts Verman is there."

Your brow twitched, "Hannes we must go there fast, I bet if he found out my mom had a bad with her, he'd bugged her to death." The blond man started running towards the camp. As soon as you went there you heard a familiar voice, "So might I know why you had a bag with you miss?" The disgusting brown haired man asked the petite redhead. Your mother looked at the ground, biting her lower lip. She looked stressed, "I-I-I… My daughter told me to hang on to it. " She simply stated, the crowd was looking at her, envy showing in their eyes.

"Oh? So what's in it?" Your other superior, who was a douche, wanted to inspect the content but your mother kept it securely against her chest. "Could you bring me to that asshole, Hannes?" He nodded and as he started walking you saw Eren, Mikasa and Armin stand between your mother and the aggressive officer. "Kids, this has nothing to do with you runts, get out of the way!" The brown haired captain spat. The kids didn't budge, Eren and Mikasa glared at him. "She is the mother of a person we care a lot about. We won't move since this lady is like a mother to us, who just lost ours, because the the only thing the garrison can do is drink and believe that the walls would never be breached."Eren boldly stated.

The captain lost it and was about to hurt the kids when you spoke, "SORRY, to have kept you guys waiting." You smiled, waving, "Yo, kids. Happy to see you guys are safe. " You turned to your mom, "Hey ma, hope you traveled well. Thank you to have held on to the bag, it's not always easy when everyone is looking at you with envy. It wasn't easy for me to go to school when I was younger either, when everyone looked at me as if I was a demon." She glared at some faces she recognized. Those faces she hated so started looking at the ground in shame.

She then spoke to the brown haired coward who, almost, dared kicking the kids, "So we met, Captain Kitts Verman." She faked a smile. "And you are?" He eyed you, sweeping is gaze from head to toe. "I'm a new recruit, (Last Name, Name), sir. I am the only 103 trainee in garrison that survived the attack at Maria."

The ugly man sneered, "So? Your mom isn't supposed to have luggage, so I'll confiscate it." You then swiftly intervened, "Sorry, sir but since I am also part of the Garrison with as many rights as you, I'LL take it, okay." Your tone was one of warning, none the less; you gave the man a sweet smile.

He was getting mad, "Are you disobeying me, cadet?" Hannes was getting worried about you," Maybe we should let him -" You death glared the man with a twisted, evil grin, "Why, I guess so! I will tell you one thing; killing a human is a lot easier then killing a titan. You think I'm not willing to cut you down? Even if my body is filled of bruises, I can still fight and kill you as you stand. I don't care about your rank, age, ideals and privileges. You will stand down; leave the kids, my mom and the fucking bag alone. Got it?" You had smoke coming out of your nostrils and a crazy look on your face. "Unless… of course, you want to make a damn scene in front of this crowd." You swept your gaze around, seeing all the refugees around you.

Captain Verman grit his teeth, fuming; he turned his heels and left. You felt the adrenaline subdue and suddenly exhausted. You signaled the small group to go to a corner of the camp. "Well, he's Kitts, eh? What a coward talking to you like that mom."

The blond man carefully set you down, "You have to be careful, (Name). I heard he's an annoying son of a bitch." He was worried about you. "It's fine." You retorted, looking at the kids, "Armin, Mikasa, Eren, thank you for steeping in for my mom." The kids blushed at the comments, "Also, Eren, Mikasa…" You paused, thinking about the way you were going to approach the delicate subject, "Eren, I heard about your mom, I am so terribly sorry." You hung your head, "If only I could have done something I-" Eren suddenly hugged you, "It's okay, we all had our responsibilities to take care of. You had your mom to take care of, we… our mom was under debris, we couldn't do anything. I-I…" He started crying, "I couldn't save her… I couldn't apologize too. I'm a horrible kid." You patted his fluffy brown head, swallowing hard, I can't let him regret like this…, "Eren, listen to me. Actually you tried to apologize." He didn't understand what you mean by that.

You smiled, "You tried to take off the debris from her right? You wanted her to live because you loved her, right? In your own way, you apologized, not with words but actions. Even if she didn't want to die, she wanted YOU-" You pointed his little heart, "to live. If she truly didn't forgive you, she would have made you remain with her until the bitter end. Eren, Mikasa; comfort yourselves in that thought." You smiled at the kids while little droplets slid of you and the kids' faces.

You looked at Hannes, "Can I leave my mom to you, officer?" He looked puzzled, "What do you need me to do?" You sighed, "It's not like I want to bother you anymore, but I just can't trust these people. They were looking at my mom with such envy." You felt the cold aura that was shrouding the crowd, "Walk around town and find a house somewhere, I got years of saving in that bag. I know the kids can take care of themselves for now."

The blond man hummed, "Okay, I'll look after your mom." You let a relieved sigh, "By the way, you know any medical facility around here?" Your eyes felt droopy as you talked to the older man, "Yea, go back to the main street, make a right and head on straight -" You felt horrible, you wanted to just faint and the direction Hannes was telling you just seemed to enter by one ear and leave by the other, "You got all of that, (Name )?" Your (Eye color) orbs looked at his and nodded, "Okay I'm going now, Kids behave yourselves and mom, Hannes will escort you." You blinked, feeling the darkness take you, "Find yourself a house you'll like."

Your mom looked worried about you but nodded then went with Hannes. The kids seemed worried about you too, "Will you be okay, (Name)?" You let a weak smile appear, "I'll be fine, and did you guys eat by the way?" They nodded and you closed your eyes for a second, feeling really tired, "Alright, I'll see you later, okay?" Then you left, moving to the main street ever slowly.

As you walked, you felt your body grow weaker and weaker by the minute. Gosh, did I exert myself this much? Your lids felt so heavy, you even wondered if you'll make it to the hospital… you let out a shaky laugh, where is that medical facility by the way? Your eyes went wide as you saw someone who seemed really familiar and you felt like your body was light. You sped up but as you tried to force yourself to move, your strength vanished and you tripped. You heard yelps, screams and heavy steps that were heading towards you. Suddenly as you fell in absolute darkness, you heard him and your last thought was, Levi
