Setting: Training days. Sasha and Connie decide to prank Mikasa.
I do not own Shingeki No Kyojin.
"Come on Connie!" The Mischievous girl spoke. "You know you want to!"
"Sasha!" The boy replied. "This is Mikasa we're talking about! One does not simply prank her!"
"Which is why it's such an accomplishment if we get this right!"
"Well... I can't say that I have never thought of doing it." Connie paused "Fine."
"Thanks Connie!"
First Try
Attempt number one: Tell her Eren wants to train with her in the forest then dump water over her.
Connie and Sasha both had their set-up prepared. They had a very-very-well camouflaged bucket on a branch, over Eren's usual training spot, which was a clearing in the forest. Mikasa would walk into the training area and they would pull on a rope from their spot. The spot was fifteen meters away and camouflaged so that Mikasa's superhuman senses wouldn't catch them. All that's left was to get Mikasa into Eren's training area.
To their dismay, Eren was always around Mikasa, making it harder for them to get her into their setup. To make things worse, Eren WANTED to be around Mikasa. Sasha and Connie decided to go back to the forest to review their plans.
"Of all the days to not push her away, he chose today" Connie spoke.
"Even if he pushes her away Mikasa still goes to Eren's side. After the third time he says 'Don't baby me Mikasa' he usually gets the hint and let's her stay with him." Sasha replied.
"Yeah, but I haven't heard him say it once today. He was even the one following her around earlier."
"How about we just get Eren away from her?"
"Alright I'll distract Eren and you get Mikasa. We'll meet back here."
Sasha and Connie both stood up and proceeded to look for Mikasa and Eren. They found Eren sitting on a bench, outside the bathrooms.
"Hi Eren!" Connie greeted "Wanna go hang out?"
"No thanks." Eren didn't show any emotion. His reply ended their fraction of a conversation.
Connie stared at Eren for a while, not knowing what to do. Mikasa suddenly came out out of the bathroom.
"E-eren?" Mikasa had just finished. "You were waiting for me?"
"Yeah." Eren's face had a smile glued on it. "Let's go Mikasa."
Mikasa's face turned a slight shade of scarlet as Eren accompanied her. Sasha and Connie both went back to Eren's training spot to discuss what had happened.
"I guess Eren ju-"
They were both suddenly drenched in water.
"Dammit Connie I told you to tie the rope properly!"
Second Try
Attempt number two: Fill Mikasa's bread and stew with bitter herbs.
Since all the trainees have to wash their own plates, the food is placed on their plates beforehand so that the trainees only need to look for their names.
"Muahaha this is pure genius!" Connie laughed.
"I know! This is gonna be funny." Sasha added.
"It's almost time. Let's go outside then walk to our table when the bell rings and watch what happens."
"The only thing I love more than food is Food and Entertainment."
Sasha and Connie both came into the mess hall with the others. They giggled as they watched Armin, Eren and Mikasa sit on their table. Eren proceeded to stuff his mouth full of food. Sasha and Connie both watched as Mikasa calmly ate her food. Nothing out of the ordinary happened, other than Mikasa playing with her spoon with her mouth before secretly switching it with Eren's.
"I-I don't even" Connie didn't know what to say. Their plan had failed.
"No use crying over spilled milk. Let's just eat." Sasha added.
Connie reached for the bread and took a bite. Sasha grabbed a spoonful of stew and placed it in her mouth. Their faces immediately turned as bitter as the food.
Third Try
Attempt number three: Hide her scarf.
Sasha and Connie were talking in the forest.
"This one has got to work!" Sasha exclaimed.
"How are we gonna get her scarf? She practically we-"
"You two never learn do you?" A voice bellowed from behind them.
Before they could react the sound of 3d manuever gear registered into both their ears. Connie was immediately dragged into the air. Sasha barely escaped the horror's hand.
"Sasha run!"
"Sorry about this Connie" the horror spoke with a familiar voice.
" Wait wha-" Connie's world suddenly went dark. He'd been knocked out.
Sasha ran fast, the monster behind her motivated her to run faster than she would if she saw food. She dodged trees, jumped over boulders and ducked under branches, hoping to escape the horror behind her. She felt happy when she saw the barracks, but something was wrong, terribly wrong. The Barracks was upside down, the horror was holding her by her foot. Her world went dark soon after.
"Wake up you two."
They were in warehouse three, the one farthest from the training ground. Sasha and Connie were both tied down. The reason why their plans kept failing was standing right in front of them, sporting an aura like Mikasa's. Only this time it wasn't Mikasa. It was Eren.
All of Sasha and Connie's attempts at speaking were halted by the gags placed on their mouths.
"You both know how Mikasa is overprotective of me right?"
Sasha and Connie both nodded.
"Well I also feel the same way, but not openly, I don't like showing this part of me." The Eren in front of them wasn't impulsive, this time he was calm but a monster nonetheless. "I also don't like having other people hurt her. I wouldn't have minded if you were aiming for me."
Sasha and Connie were both squirming, the fear in their eyes visible.
"You two deserve a reminder and a punishment. I'll be administering both."
That day the potato and the egg both received a grim reminder of how deadly the savage dog became if anyone threatened his mate.
Epilogue
Sasha and Connie were both found tied to a tree. They were 'found' by Mikasa and Eren who were training. They never spoke of the horrors they witnessed, were unable to use the 3DMG properly for a week and still cringe every time Eren says "protect".
