" So , Rose what are you doing here in the woods all by yourself?
Judging by your current condition I can bet that you would kill for an apple", he said that while was holding a big, shiny and sure as hell delicious red apple.
He saw right through me, he knew that I was starving and he used that in his advantage.

"How about we play a game? Food for your thoughts?" he said that while he bent down and looked at me with those intimidating, deep, grey eyes.

"What do you want to know?"

"Well, I have something in mind..."

"Mhmm" the only word that I managed to say while I was devouring the apple.

"Let's begin with this one, shall we?"

"Sure, I'm all ears..."

"Aren't you afraid of the titans? I mean you must be extremely lucky if you haven't met them and dumb enought to believe that you might stand a chance against them or you don't have the slightest idea of the risks you put yourself into."

"Huh..? Titan-what? "

"I'll take that as a no. So you really don't know what a titan looks like?"

"Is that a new species of grizzly bears?"

" Seriously, a bear?!, he said that in a mocking tone. You are so unconscious, can't you see that you risk getting yourself killed by your own dumbness?"

"Umm, no. Ok my turn. Do you have anything else good to eat in that magic pocket of yours?"

"Tch... Here, eat those biscuits but save one for me too, ok?"

"Yes, yes!"

"One more question, are you being followed by someone?"
I turned my head skimming the surroundings but no sight of my followers. I let a sight of relief and turned back at Levi to get my biscuits.

"You are so easy to read...Why are they following you? Did you steal something, or committed a crime, signed against your sin, or worst, you don't want to marry the man your parents choose for you?"

I let a small giggle escape before I answered.
" Huh, if only it would be that easy..."

"Ok, then, split the truth."

"Sorry but I can't. Better if you don't know."

"HEICHOOUU! Five 10 meter class titans are coming in this direction!" said the boy with the emerald eyes.

"I will take the three from the left you, Mikasa and Armin take the other two from the right! " he ordered them.

I couldn't believe what I was seeing. The titans were looking pretty much like humans, but they were monstrous.
I've never though that such things ever existed.
Now I understood why Levi first thought of me that I was out of my mind.
I watched as they were preparing for battle, then I heard a sound made by a gun. They found me, again!

" There she is! Shoot her before she tries to run again! "said one of them.

I jumped instantly on Levi's horse and head in the direction of the titans.

"Hey! What the hell?! That's my horse! Get back here!"

"I'm sorry! "I yelled back at him.

Back at Levi & Co

"Heichoouu! She is crazy, she went straight to the titans.!" said Eren.

"Damn, that stupid, braindead, woman! Change of plans, right after you finish killing those titans you head straight back home! I am getting my horse back."

"But heichou, you don't have a horse"
"Actually, Eren you no longer have a horse cuz I am taking yours. You take Rose's horse, understood?"

"But, heichooouu-"

"Watch out brat! Levi said that while he blocked the attack of one titan.

Back to Rose

Levi 's horse is a beast. He is so fast and doesn't get scared when he sees the titans or distracted by the sound of a firing gun.
He really is a war horse. Brave. Loyal. Smart.

They might think that I am crazy for jumping in the mouth of titans but at that time it seemed like a reasonable solution.
If I can say that.
As I was approaching the titans one of them had eaten one of my enemies.
Ouch and eww.
So that's why Levi was so angry while he was speaking of them.
The other follower started to head back from where he came terrified by what just happened to his friend.
Pheww...finally they stopped to chase after me. Ok now I have to deal with just one huge problem.

Speaking exactly, a 15 meters problem, who is trying to eat me.

Suddenly Levi's horse stops as if he heard something and doesn't listen to my command, and tries to get rid of me by shoving me off his back.
As I fall I hit my head against a tree, then everythig turned black.
As I regain my senses I see that the titans are looking in my direction.
Shit! Ok don't panic, breathe. Run!

Levi was right, again. I am really dumb.

I can't keep up with two 15 meter titans, there is no point in running away from your problems because they always reach you.
You have to fight them. Levi said that I am dumb but also lucky.
Damn he couldn't be more right. I have just spotted a sword, who probably belonged to one of those mercenaries.
I picked up the sword and tried to figure what I could do to stop those titans.
I decided to aim for the head.
I climbed into a tree not far from one of the titans, then I charged towards him, slicing through his neck.
But of course something bad had to happen.
The sword got stuck in the titan's neck. Damn it!

Come on! Just when I was trying to pull the sword out, I caught a glimpse of the other titan. Oh no...he was only a few meters away from me, with his mouth fully open.
Then it suddenly fell down. I watched terrified how he hit the ground.
I looked back and I saw Levi, preparing for another attack.
He cut the other half of the titan's neck with one arm while with the other one he tossed me over his shoulder, and flew into a tree.

His eyes skimmed my body looking for any sign of injuries but he found none.

"Tch...you are the dumbest woman I have ever met!"...he said that in his usual mocking tone.
I couldn't look at him. Not after all the trouble and dangers I put him through.

"I am so sorry, I-"

"I haven't finished yet!

Damn, he's sure as hell mad at me.

"Look, Levi, I-"

"Shut up for fucks sake and listen to what I have to say!"

"..."

"Jeez!, you are the most annoying, stupidly uncounscious and the bravest woman I have ever met, Rose"

I finally managed to look at him, his eyes locked with mine once again, and for the first time since I left my home I managed to smile.

"Levi?"

"What?"

"You forgot lucky", I said.

"Well, I suggest you not to push your luck, I am still mad at you for taking my horse.
You know, no one dares to touch it without having my permision, and also Aethon is specially trained by me so he only listens to my orders, and now that kinda bothers me, since he let you ride him."
