-Chapter 10-

While Mikasa was lost in her journaling, Kyo was lost in his thoughts. It had been about a week and a half since Mikasa had been staying with him. Ever since Ayame brought her the clothing, she became very distant. He rarely saw her, only from a distance once, three days ago. Kyo could care less, in all honesty, because currently he was worrying about something much more important…

"If you can beat Yuki, then you can escape your fate of being locked in that room for the rest of your life, cat."

Akito's cold words slurred in his head as he stood up from his bed. Damn it! How the hell was he supposed to do such thing?! Frustration filled him as he found his way down the stairs. He had learned to fight at a younger age than that damn rat and yet he was still better than him. He tried to push those thoughts out of his head as he opened the refrigerator and drank out of the milk chug. He sighed and become lost in thought.

Suddenly, he heard a loud thud noise upstairs coming from the guest room. Kyo quickly made his way up to the room. He knocked and waited a couple of minutes without getting an answer. He opened the door slightly and called out with a worried voice,

"Oy, Mikasa? You in there?"

The room was neat and in order. He then saw that from the closet, her odd gear had fallen from the top shelf. She was not to be found so he put it up where it once was.

'How the hell do they carry that around?' Kyo thought to himself.

He noticed a notebook in the desk. Kyo recognized it as the notebook that she had fallen asleep on when Ayame had brought her the clothing. It was open; he began to read the page,

My hypothesis is that it is impossible for me to travel back to them. Time is always moving. The Earth is always orbiting. Even so the past has happened, it is set in stone. -But- for me to travel in the future is possible because the future is not set in stone. I won't accept it! There must be a way for me to travel back to Eren!

Kyo, feeling intrigued, flipped back a couple of pages and he began to read.

Day 4,

Eren was commenting to Armin that he was having headaches lately. Armin asked him to be more specific and Eren answered truthfully. He said that he wasn't able to sleep very well ever since I had disappeared. He…still believes I'm alive. He would randomly wake up feeling sore as well; for example today his arms were really sore. Armin looked concerned and asked him to go to Hanji, Eren refused and answered that all he wanted was for me to come back.

I realized that at the very end, when I am leaving, I am still able to call out to them. My hypothesis is that as the portal (or whatever it is that carries me) opens up, the sound is flexed allowing my voice to find its way to them. By now, Armin is starting to come up with something, I'm sure. He is very intelligent, I trust him.

Day 5,

I saw Eren by the frozen Annie. It unnerves me to even think that he is by that monster and I am not there to protect him! The things she did…I am rather irritated just by thinking about it! Eren and Armin are still looking really dead. They have no emotion in their eyes…I'm worried for them. Guys, please hold on!

Day 6,

I did not dream with them. I haven't dreamed with them yet. It has been two days and I am losing my mind. I don't know what to do.

Day 8,

I finally dreamed with them. I noticed that the dream was short and rather hazy. I finally managed to get enough strength to test out my hypothesis. I went to bed holding a piece of paper that said, "Eren, Armin I'm alive. I'm trapped in a different world. Please…wait for me. Eren, keep fighting to survive!" I managed to drop it into the floor! I woke up and the piece of paper wasn't there anymore! Success!

Day 9,

I took a nap and I dreamed again with them. It was a short dream. It was very unsettling; I found out that another wall has been breached! I just see Eren and Armin panicking. PLEASE BE SAFE! I yelled and they managed to hear me somehow.

Day 11,

I haven't had a dream. Nothing makes sense. This is all I think about, this is my life, and it's what I live for. What am I to live for if I can't dream about them? WHAT AM I SUPPOSED-

"What. Are. You. Doing."

Kyo turned around and almost did not recognize the girl that was in front of him. Mikasa had dark lines underneath her eyes and her hair was very messy. She was pale and looked very fragile. Quickly, she threw a punch at him which he luckily dodged.

"Oy! What the hell is your problem?! Calm down, Mikasa!"

"Shut your mouth idiot. You don't know half the hell I've been through; all I want is to get back to Eren. And now…now the WALL WAS BREACHED. ARE THEY SAFE?!" Mikasa looked at the floor as she screamed. It was almost as if she had forgotten that Kyo was there. She then looked back at him, Kyo swore that if looks could kill he would be dead at the moment.

"Don't you dare touch my notebook ever AGAIN." Mikasa grabbed him by the collar and pushed him out the door. Kyo stood up as he felt a sharp pain go through his body. He angrily went up to the roof, what was her problem?! He then thought about the pages he read. He had skipped quite a few pages; maybe she was going through hell at the moment. Not that he cared; he needed to worry about beating that damn rat at the moment. He had no energy to care about that crazy lunatic and her problems.
