''So what did you want to talk about sir?'' Jean asks as she closes the door to Darius' office. ''Mostly about where you came from again'' Darius says walking to his desk and sitting down. ''Please, take a seat so we can talk.'' Darius says prompting Jean to nod with a quick' thank you' and taking a seat on the opposite side of the table so she faced Darius. ''Now then Jean I'd like to know more about you before we get into any serious discussions about your home.'' Darius says getting a hum from Jean as she shuffles through her memories. ''I was born in a farm in Atlas, just outside its walls giving us protection from the enemy of humanity, though we didn't need it since we had my father.'' Jean explains prompting Darius to speak. ''Who was your father? Was he a huntsman like you?'' Darius asks getting a nod from Jean. ''Yes sir he was, he was a A class hunter who married into the Arc family a few years after I was born my mother had retired as a S class hunter after suffering from an illness that paralyzed her from the waist down.'' Jean adds on getting Darius to nod and lean back into his chair.

''So what I've gathered so far is that you come from a family of these 'huntsmen', I'm guessing it's an 'Arc' thing?'' Darius asks getting another nod from Jean. ''Yes me and my seven sisters all became hunters ranging from B to S class and me being a X class hunter.'' Jean says getting Darius' eyes to widen for a moment at the mention of Jean having seven other sisters. ''My parents tried for a son, they'd hoped I'd be one as well but in the end, I was born a girl and then my mother could no longer have kids so one of us would need to get a man to agree to marry into the family and from where I come from its rare due to people taking pride in their names.'' Jean explains to Darius having seen his expression change at the mention of her sisters.

''You have quite the family, makes me envious I was born an only child left with only a mother to take care of me when my father walked out on us.'' Darius says getting a small frown from Jean. ''I'm sorry sir…'' Jean says getting a sigh from Darius. ''No need to apologize, it's not like you were the man who walked away on us.'' Darius says getting Jean and himself to chuckle at his dark attempt a joke. ''So Jean what was Atlas like?'' Darius asks getting another thoughtful hum from Jean. ''It was very technologically advanced compared to here, it was also ruled by a militaristic government leaving a grand general in charge of the country, though they were mostly for show as they left everything to a military council and only stepped in if something they didn't like happened, so realistically it was a dictatorship with a puppet government.'' Jean explains getting a raised brow from Darius at her explanation of Atlas' government. ''Very interesting reminds me of here…'' Darius mutters aloud while glancing out the window before turning back to Jean. ''Please tell me more of your home.'' Darius asks prompting Jean to go into depth about her home.

''What do you think of Jean, Eren?'' Eren turns his head to the side towards Hange having heard her speak and raises a brow at the question. ''What do I think of Jean…?'' Eren asks himself while looking off to the side in thought. ''I don't really know…She seems very calm and calculated…that's all I can really get from her…'' Eren says getting a sigh from Hange. ''Damn…Since you slept with her I thought you'd know a little more.'' Hange says causing Eren to go into a coughing fit and his face to turn red while Oluo comically spits out his drink in the background. ''He what?!'' Oluo exclaims only to be ignored by Hange who continues on asking questions about Jean. ''What about her arms? Did you notice anything odd about them? Her skin how it felt? How she smelt? Anything's useful!'' Hange asks repeatedly to Eren. ''Give the kid a break Hange, he looks like he'd about to pass out.'' Levi says looking at Eren's red face getting Hange to sigh and comply with Levi's orders.

''Hey kid.'' A male voice asks getting Eren to turn to his right to see Oluo direct his horse so he was moving alongside Eren. ''W-what?'' Eren says leaning back as Oluo leans towards him and begins to speak in a hushed tone. ''What can you tell me about that Jean girl who can turn into a titan?'' Oluo asks getting a confused look from Eren. ''Umm…what do you mean?'' Eren asks him get a huff from Oluo. ''Anything about her really, unlike you she seems dangerous, has even captain Levi checking over his shoulder every so often and I want to know everything about her in case she goes rouge.'' Oluo says causing Eren's eyes to widen for a moment. ''Well she's tall for a woman I think she's about 6 foot tall…blond hair blue eyes, she has high cheek bones and she looks really pretty and her eyes glow a lot though she has these creases in her skin that starts at her lips and makes its way around her face and up to her ears, her right arm and leg are made from metal and she has the ability to break iron cuffs with no effort so I'm guessing she's really strong…'' Eren explains and pauses mid-way through his explanation as Petra hits Oluo on the back of the head getting him to grunt in pain and rub the back of his head. ''Stop being so paranoid.'' Petra says getting another huff from Oluo who guides his horse away from the both of them while grumbling.

''Don't mind him, he's just paranoid about recent events, I'm sure everyone else is as well because of you and Jean having the ability to turn into titans.'' Petra explains to Eren who lets out a grunt while glancing back to Levi who was staring at him flatly prompting him to look ahead with a gulp causing Petra to giggle at Eren's actions. ''Don't mind Levi ether, he seems really cold on the outside but he cares a lot for his comrades.'' Petra says with a soothing smile calming Eren down slightly. ''I'd prefer not to peg but what is Jean like…?'' Petra asks after a few moments of awkward silence between them. ''Er…well she's kind and has a tendency to laugh a lot and even when things looked grim for me and Jean she wasn't worried so I guess she's brave? And when needed she becomes really serious…She seems like the ideal protector of humanity, no matter the situation she seems to be the type of person to charge into the problem head first.'' Eren explains getting a thoughtful hum from Petra. ''She really does seem amazing by the way you explain her to be.'' Petra mummers to herself while looking off to the side feeling slightly jealous. ''Hey Petra what was that about being paranoid?'' Oluo says flatly to Petra prompting her to lead her horse to Oluo's and start to argue with him getting a small chuckle and a smile from Eren at their humane behavior.

''What is this place?'' Eren asks aloud as they break through a tree line to find a castle like building that seemed like a mix of a chapel and a fort that was covered in moss. ''Damn place has gone to hell since the scouts abandoned it.'' Oluo says with a frown on his face stopping his argument from Petra. ''Sure has, I remember coming to this place filled with hope when it was in it's prime, shame that our hopes were dashed like that pair of pants you soiled on your first mission Oluo.'' Eld says causing the older man to let out an angry shout as the group laughs at his misfortune. ''Oh yeah I remember that! You ended up pissing yourself on your first mission.'' Gunther Schultz says through his laughter causing Oluo to let out a mix of a distressed groan and a shout. ''Well looks like this is a problem then…'' Levi says silencing the group as he moves his horse ahead of the group and looks at the fort. ''Looks like we'll have to clean this place up before the other scouts arrive.'' Levi adds on moving his horse towards the fort prompting the special operations squad to follow after him. ''Alright all of you I expect this place to be clean by the time the other scouts arrive so get to it.'' Levi says as they reach the walls of the old fort.

''Hm, I'll just wear my own coat.'' Jean mutters pulling off the coat given to her by the member of military police with the wings of freedom on the back, it's not that she didn't like the coat it's just that she liked her own one better plus she had dust woven into it and could use it as another weapon. ''Are you sure that's a good idea? They keep these uniforms as tight to the body as possible to stop people or titans grabbing ahold of them.'' Darius asks getting a shrug from Jean. ''It's fine sir, the coat I use has dust woven into it so I can use it as a weapon in combat anyways and I don't plan on getting grabbed any time soon.'' Jean says as she tosses the old coat to the side and puts her own one on over her new uniform that consisted of the standard uniform with a dress shirt with the top button undone and a gray waste coat over it. ''Well, given your history that isn't going to be a problem.'' Darius says to himself watching Jean put the duster coat on.

''Well this is where we part ways Jean, you'll be shipped off to join the scouts today, I've heard they've moved back into one of their old forts.'' Darius explains to Jean as he moves to his desk and opening one of the drawers. ''Hopefully I'll get an escort so I won't need to run around for hours on end trying to find them.'' Jean mutters aloud getting Darius to chuckle remembering the time Jean had be running around the inner walls trying to find the military command after leaving. ''No need to worry yourself about such things, some of the scouts were sent to escort you out to the fort, though it's less of a 'we'll lead the way and more 'We'll be making sure you don't do anything' type of escort.'' Darius says pulling a box out of the drawer and wiping the layer of dust from its wooden surface before opening it to show a military council badge. ''Here, so people know who they're dealing with when they come to face you.'' Darius says walking around his desk and attaching the badge to Jean's coat, before Jean would thank Darius she heard a knock on the door behind her prompting her to turn around to find Erwin and an unnamed scout standing at the door.

''Commander Erwin, I didn't expect you to be here so soon.'' Darius says prompting Erwin to salute along with the other scout. ''Commander and chief Darius, sir!'' Erwin says prompting Darius to wave a hand as he walked to his desk and took a seat. ''Well it looks like this is where we part ways Jean, the time spent has been quite enjoyable.'' Darius says from his seat to Jean who nods a small smile coming to her face. ''It has been enjoyable sir.'' Jean replies before walking out the door with Erwin and the scout leaving Darius alone in his room to look out his window with squinted eyes seeing the outline of two figures using maneuverability gear on a nearby rooftop. ''I suggest you watch your back Jean…'' Darius mutters despite being alone in the room.

''Your choice of clothes is rather unorthodox miss Arc.'' Erwin says as they walked through the halls of the military command. ''Way to break the ice, and you can call me Jean sir.'' Jean says to Erwin who smirks a little at Jean's response. ''Very well Jean, I'm sure you're aware as to why we're escorting you.'' Erwin says getting Jean to nod. ''I'm too dangerous to walk around alone.'' Jean replies prompting Erwin to nod. ''Yes, although Darius seems to trust you the king and his council do not and ordered you to be watched at all time by the MP's, I'm sure you've noticed them shadowing you ever since the trial?'' Erwin asks looking back at Jean who once more nods. ''I have, although they're good at hiding and acting discrete I'm just better than them.'' Jean says not hiding an ounce of cockiness from her voice while glancing to the left looking directly at an MP in a nearby clock tower. ''Hm, well as soon as you leave the inner wall you should feel relieved that you won't be watched by the MP's anymore.'' Erwin explains as he opens a door to a carriage allowing Jean to walk in first followed by himself while the scout soldier with them closes it and walks to the front of the cart leaving Jean and Erwin alone.

''So then Erwin what do you wanna know about me? I can see that you're curious about me.'' Jean says her serious attitude vanishing a sly grin coming to her face as she lazily lays back in her seat causing Erwin to raise a brow at Jean's mood change. ''I am indeed curious about you; I'm sure Darius has been as well.'' Erwin admits brushing off Jean's attitude. ''He was, had me explain a lot about my past and home but he never really brought up how I became a titan.'' Jean says to Erwin who lets out a hum causing Jean to raise a brow. ''You know something, don't you?'' Jean asks getting Erwin to nod. ''Yes, the reason Darius isn't interested in how you became a titan is because he doesn't care about such things, when it comes down it to Darius is willing to put his own safety and well-being above humanities, unless he felt he was in danger he'd bring it up and try to use it to save himself.'' Erwin explains to Jean who lets out a ''Ooooh.'' At Erwin's explanation of Darius. ''He has that right I guess, everyone does, I'm sure you feel the same way Erwin, I once did before I became a X class hunter.'' Jean replies to Erwin making him smile sadly looking out his window. ''I do.'' Erwin admits sadly the deaths of his own soldiers coming to mind.

''Oi you're spacing out on me eyebrows.'' Jean says breaking Erwin from his thoughts. ''Eyebrows…?'' Erwin asks looking at Jean with a raised brow who smirks at the man's confusion. ''Wait so no-ones called you that?'' Jean asks curiously causing Erwin to shake his head making Jean burst into laughter at the man. ''WHAT?! HOW HAS NO-ONE CRACKED A JOKE ABOUT YOUR RIDICULOUS EYEBROWS?!'' Jean shouts loudly through her laughter causing Erwin's right eye to twitch in annoyance. ''Oh cheer up old man! It's just a joke don't go all SJW on me!'' Jean says patting Erwin's shoulder, finally getting her laughter under control. ''SJW?'' Erwin asks getting Jean to shrug. ''Oh don't mind that, they're just a group of people who're easily offended for no reason.'' Jean says waving a hand dismissively on the subject. ''So where are we going anyways Erwin? all I know is that I'll be sent to some fort in the outer wall with Eren.'' Jean says returning to her serious mood.

''We'll be heading to the military cadet selection, the selection process allows them to choose whether to join the garrison, scouts or for the top tens the MP.'' Erwin explains to Jean who nods. ''I'm guessing most of them are joining the garrison, especially after what happened recently with the battle for the Trost district.'' Jean says getting Erwin to nod. ''I fear that with the recent attack the number of cadets to join the scouts will drop once more…'' Erwin mutters with fear lacing his voice getting Jean to raise a brow. ''The first drop…was it because of the other wall being breached?'' Jean asks prompting Erwin to nod. ''After the outer most wall fell the number of scouts dropped after the king's council forced over twenty percent of the population that had fled into the walls back out to fight titans in an attempt to reclaim the land, as predicted it failed with everyone on the expedition dying, it discouraged a lot of potential scouts from joining, that year only three men joined our ranked…'' Erwin explains morbidly to Jean who frowns looking out the carriage window to the castle where the king resided. ''Darius did make a few comments about being displeased about the current leadership of the people within the walls and there recent 'decisions'.'' Jean says watching the castle slowly creep away from them. ''Hey Erwin can we stop in at the military hospital? I need to visit someone.'' Jean says turning back to Erwin who nods seeing no problem. ''I don't see a problem…'' Erwin says before tapping the back of the carriage getting the drivers attention and instruct him to head towards the military hospital.

''MAAAARRRCCCCCOOOOO!'' Jean drawls out loudly as she kicks the wooden door in front of her open causing the boy inside to jump on his bed in fright. ''J-jean!? W-why're you here?'' Marco says nervously seeing Jean in the doorway with a grin on her face. ''You're meant to say polo.'' Jean says walking into the room allowing Erwin to walk in after her causing Marco to stiffen up and a look of shock to come to his face. ''C-commander Erwin sir!'' Marco says nervously seeing the commander of the scout's core. ''At ease soldier, here we're just civilians here for a chat young man.'' Erwin says leaning against the wall beside the door as Jean took a seat near Marco's bed. ''So how you feeling? Your leg feeling okay?'' Jean asks with concern in her voice as she looks down at Marco's leg to see it was mangled badly, even missing a chunk of his foot. ''Well…the doctor said I'd never be able to walk properly again, so I can't become a soldier which sucks, but because of my duties during the battle of Trost the government are giving me free housing and money in the Trost district when it's rebuilt.'' Marco explains a sad smile on his face while looking down at his damaged leg. ''Don't look so down! Sure you can't become a soldier but at least your set up for life.'' Jean says placing a hand on Marco's shoulder who only frowns. ''But I don't want any of that…I wanted to be a soldier! An MP willing to give his life for the king at any moment but now…now I'm just a civilian with a mangled leg…'' Marco explains his desire morbidly to Jean who removes her hand from Marco's shoulder and leans back into her chair with a sigh.

''Marco…I have an offer for you.'' Jean says causing Marco to look up from his leg to Jean. ''What do you mean offer?'' Marco asks curiously getting a small smile from Jean. ''I can give you your leg back.'' Jean says causing Marco and Erwin's eyes to widen in shock at the news. ''Y-you can?'' Marco asks with desperation in his voice as Jean nods once more. ''It'll take time to build but I could hook you up with one of these.'' Jean explains taking her boot off and lifting her leg for Marco to see the metal limb. ''How…what that's…'' Marco attempts to form a sentence looking at Jean's 'leg' in shock. ''It's a prosthetic I threw together after I lost my leg and arm a while ago. I can get you one bui8lt but it'll take a while seeing as I don't have a lot of the equipment to put it together.'' Jean explains putting her leg back down along with putting her boot on before snapping her fingers prompting the scout that was with them to come in carrying a bag and placing it at Jean's side before leaving, leaving Erwin and Marco in confusion.

''What's in the bag Jean?'' Erwin asks prompting a large smile to come to Jean's face as she stands up and opens the bag. ''I'm glad you asked!'' Jean says happily pulling out a simple replacement leg and placing it onto Marco's bed prompting him to pick it up and look it over in awe. ''It's not like mine, it won't work so think of it like a peg leg but really good at peg legging, it will allow you to walk against until I've gotten one like mine made for you.'' Jean explains to Marco who drops the fake leg onto the bed and lunges onto Jean embracing her into a hug with tears in his eyes. ''T-thank you!'' Marco sobs out as Jean pats his back. ''Don't get all teary eyed on me Marco! I still have something to explain about the leg.'' Jean says pushing Marco off her allowing him to sit back onto the bed and wait for jean to explain more about his new leg. ''I need to put off your leg from the knee down.'' Jean says getting straight to the point causing Erwin's eyes to widen slightly. ''Are you sure that's a good idea Jean? Not many people survive the removal of limbs because of blood lose and infection.'' Erwin says to Jean who only ignores him. ''It's a small price to pay to be able to walk again…I'll do it!'' Marco says causing a grin to come to Jean's face.

''I still can't believe you did that…'' Erwin says as he leads Jean towards the military selection, it had been two days since they visited Marco about getting him a new leg and just as Jean had promised she had the new basic prosthetic leg on Marco after telling Erwin to keep everyone out and in the span of twenty minutes she was done and left the unconscious Marco on the bed with only a small note beside his bed. ''I know I'm a god, praise me mere mortal.'' Jean gloats jokingly causing Erwin to chuckle while shaking his head and Jeans banter. ''Your homes technology is quite impressive, we ourselves do have prosthetic limbs but they're no-where near as good as the one you gave the boy.'' Erwin says to Jean who shrugs. ''Well he won't have it for long, I should have a basic prosthetic like mine done for him in a month or two using my spare time to have it constructed and he should feel as good as new, hell he could even join the MP!'' Jean explains to Erwin who nods knowing it was the truth if Jean's prosthetics were anything to go by. ''So what do you plan to do if not many scouts join from the cadets?'' Jean asks getting a shrug from Erwin. ''We'll have to make due with what we get sadly, although it'll be bad we've dealt with worse.'' Erwin says turning his head back to Jean as they walked. ''Well you got me! So no need to worry commander!'' Jean says causing Erwin to huff turning his back ahead of him as he walked through a door and out into a courtyard filled with cadets chatting with one another.

''Damn that's a lot of cadets…'' Jean says looking at the hundred or so cadets chatting with each other. ''There should have been more but the attack on Trost cut their numbers down to half of what it was sadly.'' Erwin explains to Jean as he heads towards a stage with a banner with the wings of freedom on it. ''So you'll be giving a speech?'' Jean asks curiously looking between Erwin and the stage prompting the man to nod. ''Indeed, the commander of the Military police, garrison and military police all have ones just like this, they give a speech about joining there corp and those who wish to join stay behind.'' Erwin explains to Jean who lets out a hum as she looked at the many scouts trying to spot a few familiar faces. ''Well I'll leave you to it commander, I'll be doing…stuff?'' Jean asks herself breaking away from the commander who nods and continues to walk towards the podium.

''Wonder is Pixis is here?'' Jean asks aloud as she starts to walk around the open area to spot the garrison's podium. ''There it is.'' Jean says posting a banner with the familiar roses and heads towards it, pushing past cadets and soldiers on her way ignoring them shouting after her to watch it. ''Pixis!'' Jean shouts getting the attention of the commander who looks over at her in confusion for a moment before his eyes widen in recognition. ''Jean! I didn't expect you to be here!'' Pixis says handing a note pad to the garrison captain in front of him before walking over to Jean. ''Well Erwin came and took me out of Darius's hands to help the scouts with their next mission.'' Jean explains to Pixis who nods. ''Come take a seat, my old bones can't stand standing all the time.'' Pixis says with a chuckle as he leads Jean around the stage before taking a seat on a folding chair along with Jean. ''So how've things been inside the walls? I hope the military police have been treating you well.'' Pixis says to Jean who shrugs. ''If by stalking you mean treating well then sure they've been nice hosts.'' Jean says getting a light laugh from Pixis.

''Yes well that is nice for the military police, when it comes to threats they tend to shoot first and ask questions later.'' Pixis explains to Jean who smirks a memory of yang flashing into her mind. ''Don't worry I'm used to it, plus Darius was a rather nice host so it evened it out for me.'' Jean says waving a hand dismissively at the military polices actions. ''You're lucky Darius took you in like he had, if he simply left you to the scouts you'd be open game for the king's council but they fear Darius and if they took you from him of all people he'd probably gather the scouts and garrison and march right into the capitol and take you back by force.'' Pixis explains to Jean who lets out a whistle imagining such a thing happening. ''Well don't I feel special.'' Jean jokes getting alight hum from Pixis. ''Well I'd love to chat for a little longer but I'm going to be needed to 'convince' to bulk of soldiers who didn't join the scouts soon.'' Pixis says emphasizing convince knowing well even if he talked shit to them they'd still join the garrison. ''Well it has been nice talking but I'm going to need to go back to Erwin before he sends a squad looking for me, it's been good talking with you Pixis.'' Jean says standing up along with Pixis and shaking his hand before heading off to the scout's stage to meet up with Erwin.

''Well that's quite the crowd…'' Jean says looking at the crowd gathered in front of the stage with nervous looks on their faces while Erwin stood in silence looking down at them. ''Is he gonna talk…or something?'' Jean asks herself looking at Erwin glare at the cadets in silence giving the air around him a tense feeling to the point you could touch it. ''I'll just wait it out…'' Jean mutters taking a seat on the dirt and crossing her legs while looking up at Erwin flatly waiting for him to speak. And so he did, giving a small speech about trying to convince them to join the survey corp before going into into detail about a plan to retake wall Maria and find the truth of the titans to the cadets. ''Well isn't he ballsy giving out that kind of information publicly.'' Jean says watching as Erwin explains the plan to take back wall Maria to the cadets before going into a morbid explanation of what the scouts would be like and how they lost sixty percent of their numbers ins four years during expeditions leaving Jean to stare at him flatly wondering if Erwin wanted ANYONE to him.

''Well that's surprising…'' Jean says aloud prompting those who'd remained to turn to her in surprise as she stood up. ''With a speech like that I'm surprised you stayed, well besides Armin and Mikasa here but the rest of you? Got balls of brass justice that's for sure.'' Jean says looking from the cadets up to Erwin who looks down at her with a slight smirk. ''Any who welcome to scouts or the survey core as it's officially named, kids! You'll love it outside the walls, lots of plant life, open fields to look at but the titans can be annoying but as long as you keep out of their grasp you'll be fine.'' Jean says to the cadets to reassure them slightly. ''But don't mind him up there, he's just all morbid and shit because he doesn't want anyone to join who'll run away at the first site of a titan so well done to you lot.'' Jean adds on looking back at the cadets. ''Though I'd like to speak to a few of you personally if you kids don't mind, it's about the battle of Trost so I'll grab you when I have time.'' Jean says walking into the group of remaining cadets and grabbing the one she'd dubbed 'horse face' by his uniform and dragging him from the group and out of earshot.

''You're Marco's friend, right?'' Jean asks causing 'horse face' to frown sadly. ''Yeah I was…why?'' 'Horse face' says sadly looking at Jean questionably. ''Well he's not dead for one so stop saying was.'' Jean says causing 'Horse face's' eyes to widen as he grabs Jean's Uniform pulling her close to his face. ''Don't joke about with me! I saw him for god sake! I saw him get grabbed by that titan and it ate him!'' 'Horse face' says angrily to Jean who only stares at him flatly. ''Well he told me to give this to you.'' Jean says pushing 'Horse faces's' hands off her and puts her hand into one of her coats pockets before taking out a letter and handing it to 'horse face'. ''Here you go John, that's your new name by the way since my names Jean and I'm not calling you Jean.'' Jean explains as she hands over the letter to 'John' who opens it and begins to read the contents, the further he got down the page Jean noticed tears starts to form in 'John's' eyes and simply walked away leaving him to read the letter alone missing the silence ''Thank you.'' From him.

''Erwin I need to talk to you a minute!'' Jean shouts walking around the 'stage' prompting Erwin to nod and walk off leaving it to Mike to speak to the new recruits. ''What do you need to talk about Jean?'' Erwin asks meeting Jean at the back of the stage. ''I want to talk about the maneuverability gear.'' Jean says prompting Erwin to nod knowing where this was going. ''I'm guessing it's about your training with the gear?'' Erwin asks getting Jean to shake her head. ''I won't need the gear.'' Jean says getting a confused look from Erwin prompting her to elaborate. ''I mean I won't need it because it would just hinder me, my natural abilities already give me the speeded needed along with my cybernetics I'm strong and fast, faster than I would be using the gear.'' Jean explains to Erwin who lets out a hum in thought thinking of an argument. ''How do you plan on getting to high ground? And to get around titans? We use the gear to move around titans to their nape.'' Erwin asks getting a huff from Jean. ''I can also jump high, Erwin and I can use my titan form if I do find myself in a bad spot, as for getting around titan's I'll just use my speed.'' Jean explains to Erwin who lets out a sigh giving up on trying to convince Jean to use the gear. ''Alright if you don't wish to use the gear so be it.'' Erwin says to Jean who gives him a thumb up with a goofy grin on her face.

''Damn this place looks like it's been abandoned for years…'' Jean says looking at the fort ahead of them. ''That's because it has been, it was the old scout's headquarters but it was abandoned after wall Maria fell and we use it as a supply depo in worst case scenario situations.'' Erwin explains to Jean as he leads the group of new scouts to the fort. ''Hm, well hopefully the special operations squad took care of the place for us.'' Jean says looking at the horses in the stable of the entrance to the fort. ''Trust me, they'll have it cleaned, Levi has this thing for everything being clean so there's no need to worry about that.'' Erwin explains as he leads his horse through the entrance. ''Hm, the more I hear about Levi the more he sounds like the perfect asshole.'' Jean says flatly as she and the others follow behind Erwin into the fort. ''Damn this place looks a lot bigger on the inside!'' Jean says as they enter the 'forts' court yard.

''Erwin I'm breaking off here, I'll go find the special operations squad.'' Jean says hopping off her horse and walking away leaving it to someone else. ''Hey you.'' Jean says looking down getting the attention of Oluo who'd been using a cloth to clean blood from his legs. ''Hm? Who the hell are you?'' Oluo asks not recognizing Jean. ''I'm looking for the special operations squad? Know where they are?'' Jean asks getting a huff from Oluo. ''Why should I tell you? You haven't even answered me question yet.'' Oluo says flatly as he stands up from his sitting position on a curb causing Jean to smirk as she was taller than the man who himself scowled not expecting Jean to be 5'10. ''You haven't answered MY question yet.'' Jean says to Oluo who squints his eyes at Jean lean a tad bit closer while glaring at her. ''And who're you to come in here and tell me what to do huh?'' Oluo says angrily getting Jean to smile and point at the small badge Darius had given her.

''Oh…'' Oluo says looking up from Jean's badge up to her face. ''Well…I'll just lead you to the rest of the special operation squad then…'' Oluo says turning around and lead Jean to the special operation squad. ''So…you won't tell anyone about this…will you?'' Oluo says nervously turning his head back to Jean who shakes her head getting him to sigh in relief. ''just in case, sorry about that back there, I'm not aloud anyone to see Eren besides yourself and I didn't know it was you.'' Oluo explains why he'd been a dick to Jean a minute beforehand. ''it's fine, I'd have probably done the same as you.'' Jean says waving it off like nothing as they turn a corner to see the special operation squad talking with one another and Hange. ''JEAN!'' Hange shouts happily noticing her and running towards her and leaping into the air. ''Hi.'' Jean says stepping to the side causing Hange to miss her completely and stumble into a fall causing Jean to chuckle at Hange who picked herself up from the ground. ''So why is there a titan here…?'' Jean asks turning to the tied down three-meter titan looking directly at her with a frown on its face. ''He's called Bonnie! He's one of the titans we captured from Trost. We used to have three but two of the got killed.'' Hange explains walking to Jean's side as they looked at the titan.

''M...Momma…'' The titan says causing those in earshot's eyes to widen in shock as the titan speaks to Jean.
