Hello and here's the first Chapter of the series! I might not ever finish it but enjoy it while I still have the motivation! I got a bit lazy on this chapter but I did my best. I hope you enjoy it!


Levi Rivaille never did enjoy parties, or basically any event that had a large amount of people. Honestly he didn't even want to attend whatever they were going to, but Erwin insisted they go… The short man let a sigh escape from him as he gazed out of the window of the carriage, ignoring the chatter from the others that were with him.

"We should be arriving soon I believe." Erwin Smith, a tall, blonde man who sat beside him said with a few glances at Levi, as if expecting a reaction. Levi only grunted in reply, not looking away from the window. Someone else sat on the other side of Erwin, shaking their head with a soft sigh. "I didn't expect Levi to be very excited about this…" He claimed as he crossed his arms. Erwin chuckled in reply, "Every event may be different Gunter… Levi may change his perspective on this one."

A woman with strawberry blonde hair frowned, looking at Gunter who sat across from her and then at Erwin. "That's what you said last time… I doubt he will anytime soon..." She said with a groan, lowering her gaze. The man who sat next to her, a man with blonde hair and a bit of a stubble, nodded in agreement. "Petra's got a point… But we don't actually know what the outcome of this event will be…"

"Yeah, but judging by Levi's attitude right now…. Who knows what could happen eh? The outcome might as well be horrific like all of the other times, Erd…" The person who sat in front of Levi mumbled, running a hand through his platinum blonde hair. Levi rolled his eyes a bit and turned his attention to the others. "Did you forget that I'm right here? You make it sound like I'm some little child throwing a tantrum. You aren't implying that, aren't you Auruo?" He said icily, squinting at the man who sat across from him. Auruo, as well as the others besides Erwin, went completely silent as tension filled the carriage.

The ride to the mansion was silent for several hours, only the sound of hooves hitting the dirt road and the wheels turning rapidly prevented it from being all too quiet. Eventually, the one to speak again was Levi, who was looking out the window once more. "This mansion is far… On a hill surrounded by large trees you said?" He asked Erwin without turning to look at him. Erwin managed a soft smile, now looking at the short man. "That is what I was told…. I am sure the mansion is far due to privacy reasons. But it might get lonely every now and then… It is possible that hosting such an event will be doing them some good."

Levi only grunted again in response, though his eyebrows were furrowed slightly. That sounded like valid reason, but something was bothering him. Something was just not right about all this… But after a moment, Levi pushed those thoughts away as he noticed the carriage pull to a stop. The doors were opened, and one by one, everyone stepped out. A tall man with dark brown hair greeted them, possibly the mansion's butler. "Right this way…" He said kindly with a polite bow before escorting the six people into the mansion without another word.

Immediately upon entering the mansion, the feeling of uncertainty returned. The main hall was very clean, which Levi appreciated really but something about this place made him feel unusually uneasy. He took a glance around, still showing no emotion despite what he was feeling at the moment before following the others into the large dining room. He could hear the others gasping and staring in awe at the room. The table was long with a dark blue table cloth covering it. Many long candles were set on top, as well as several empty plates. Set aside each plate were sets of fine silverware and neatly folded napkins.

It was all impressive, Levi admitted to himself, but it still didn't push away that feeling. He shook his head and pushed the thoughts back when he noticed the Master of the mansion had approached them, arms wide and eyes welcoming. "Ah, Erwin Smith! It is an honor that you could make it!" He said in a sort of silky, almost hypnotizing voice. The Master wore what looked like a long white and gold coat and a black vest atop a pale purple dress shirt, and his long white hair was tied up in a ponytail. Alec Arsworth… The man looked strange, but it wasn't an important matter.

Erwin smiled politely and shook Alec's hand. "It was an honor to be invited Mr. Arsworth! What event is going to be taken place here?" He asked and moved his hands behind his back. Alec shook his head with a grin, wagging his finger at Levi's boss. "I'm afraid that's a surprise Mr. Smith! You'll just have to wait and see!" He said before both men exchanged nods and the Master walked away to speak with the butler.

Petra looked down at her dark red dress with a sigh, then back up at the others around her. Something about this place was giving her the chills, and she didn't like it. Though, part of her assumed she was cold… Why couldn't Hanji make it anyways? The woman turned to the other three who stood beside her, then looked back to where Levi was standing. They were told the event was going to be a long one, and she didn't really feel too fond of the idea of being at an important event for such a long time. She was worried she was going to mess up somehow… Being a bit of a klutz. Petra sighed, telling herself to at least try to enjoy the party. It was important to Erwin anyways…. And maybe even to Levi.

There was an odd aura in the air that was sending shivers down Gunter's spine, and he glanced at the others momentarily, wondering if they could feel it as well. It was hard to tell, so the man decided it was not all that important. Maybe it was because of the importance of the event that was causing such a strange feeling? Was he nervous that someone was going to mess this up and have to face Levi soon after? Was he nervous for Erwin and Levi? Gunter sighed and decided not to think much of it. It was better just to enjoy the night while it lasted instead of worrying over something like that.

Standing beside him, Erd didn't glance around but kept his gaze on the table close by. It was pretty damn large… How many people were going to attend anyways? Judging by how many plates and silverware were set about, probably a lot. It made him wonder when the alcohol was going to be served, and a little part of him hoped it was soon. The men practically wore the same thing, white dress shirt while everything else was black, along with a black tie. Though Erwin wore a nice long black trench coat, and Levi wore his usual white cravat instead of a black tie. Speaking of cravats, Erd turned his head to where Auruo stood. Of course, Auruo was wearing also wearing a cravat similar to Levi's, which didn't surprise him a bit. He didn't know what started it, but Auruo has started copying the shorter man for some strange reason and it got a bit irritating after a while. Erd shook his head and looked back to the table, still curious about that alcohol. Though he could feel the hair on the back of his neck rise, feeling as though something was watching him from the shadows, but the man could only just ignore the feeling to the best of his ability.

Parties could be pretty boring… Or at least that is what Auruo was saying to himself. Almost everyone around him was having some sort of conversation, and it pleased him a bit to know that Levi may be too busy to be able to talk with Petra at all. A smirk formed on the man's face, but he still didn't say or do anything. He only stood silently as he and the others waited for Levi and Erwin to tell them what to do next. Though he guessed that they were on their own, you can never be too sure. Auruo then couldn't help but notice the odd silence that was coming from the other three, and turned his head slightly to look at them. He had to crane his neck to see what Petra was up to, her being the tiniest out of all of them and standing on the other side of Gunter and Erd. All of them were completely quiet, and Auruo opened his mouth to ask what the hell was wrong with them before he quickly shut it again. There was a strange feeling now… A feeling that made him almost visibly shiver. Could this feeling be the one making the rest of them go quiet? Whatever it was, Auruo did not speak after all, but silently stare ahead like the rest of them did.

Erwin noticed the other four when he glanced over, silently standing there with rather blank looks on their faces. He raised an eyebrow, a bit puzzled before turning back to Levi. "I think they are waiting for you… You might have to tell them that they can move around if they wish." He explained to the other, who kept his usual bored expression before turning and walking away. At that moment, a light ding noise was heard a few times and Erwin looked back at the table. Alec held up a glass in one hand and a spoon in the other, possibly using those to draw everyone's attention. "The event will start in just a moment here! We have also invited the Shiganshina Orphanage and they have not yet arrived. Part of this is a charitable event! A discussion will be held about what to do with them sometime after the main event has taken place!" He said in a loud, enthusiastic voice. Erwin crossed his arms, nodding slightly as he listened to the announcement being made. "They should arrive shortly! Once they are present we will begin!" And as the Master said that, everyone clapped and nodded, muttering things among themselves. Though Erwin frowned slightly, getting a feeling as if someone was watching him, causing him to turn his head. There was nothing, of course, though for a moment… Just a quick moment… He thought he saw a pair of gleaming eyes coming from one of the doors leading to the kitchens of the Mansion…
