Hi! I hope you enjoy this chapter. The story will probably be reaching a climax soon, and I'll try to update regularly! This chapter is second person perspective, but it sort of yo-yos between your and Levi's point of view. I hope it isn't too confusing.

Please, review. =)

Disclaimer: I don't own Attack on Titan or any of it's characters.


"Levi?" Surprised E/C eyes stared at him, confused.

Of course, he ignored her. She tapped his shoulder.

"Um, Levi, it's me, Y/N." Your voice was gentle but insistent. He turned to look at you, his face betraying confusion as well as irritation.

"What the hell are you doing here?"

"Well, nice to see you too." You said, feeling a bit stung. His gaze didn't waver. With his penetrating gray eyes boring a hole through you, you sighed and answered him softly.

"A friend of mine works here, Jean. I was seeing him. And you?" You asked. A shadow seemed to come over his face, but his voice was as stoic as ever.

"Having a cup of tea is all. Now leave me alone." He gestured unnecessarily to his teacup.

"I see. Well, have a good day. I'll see you tomorrow!" You turned around, not wanting him to see your face.

Walking out, you didn't see Levi sigh and run a hand through his hair. He hadn't meant to say that; it was his natural sense of space kicking in.

"Pathetic, just pathetic." He whispered to himself.


You were feeling sad, and there was only one thing that could cheer you up. You walked to your favourite place in the world, a smile tugging at the corner of your lips. Despite your less-than-merry mood, visiting the library never failed to bring a grin to your face. You pushed through the large wooden doors, feeling the quietness surround you. After being in that noisy café, it was so very peaceful in here.

A full-blown grin made it's way to your face as memories came back to you, unbidden. You stood near the entrance, gazing at all the books. Walking aimlessly through the shelves, you pulled out one that looked interesting. As you were browsing, you noticed a blonde head walking towards you. Lifting your head up, you smiled.

"Hey, Armin! Long time no see." You waved to your friend as he came towards you.

"Oh, hey, Y/N! How're you doing?" He asked, startled. Both of you had become sort of library buddies, talking about your common interests, namely, books.

"Good. What about you? Did you recover from the flu you had a few weeks ago?"

"Oh, yeah. How's it at Rose?"

"Oh, same as ever. How is that fancy new school of yours? What was it called again?" You teased him, smiling. Armin had won a scholarship to a prestigious private school, which was apparently extremely difficult (and expensive) to enroll in. He blushed.

"You mean Sina Academy? It's okay, I guess. The classes are interesting, but the kids are all snobs who look down on people if they don't have enough zeroes in their bank accounts."

"Yeah, but don't be discouraged by them. You're a genius; never think otherwise." You smiled as his face turned red.

"Now then, Eren and Mikasa wanted to talk to you, but they said you changed your number. How come?"

"Oh, my old phone broke. I guess I forgot to tell them. Sorry!" He looked stricken. You giggled.

"S'okay. Now then, what are you reading? It looks interesting." You motioned to the leather-bound tome he had in his hands. The title identified it as 'Cults: A History'.

"Oh, this? It's a compilation of records about secret societies. I have to do an essay on secret societies, so I was doing some research. Wanna see?"

"Sure." You staggered as he handed the book to you. It was heavier than it looked. You opened the pages to a random page, totally absorbed.

"Hmm...look, it talks about a Wall Cult. They think that a long time ago, walls named after Rose, Maria, and Sina were built, and the walls were divine. Really? They worship walls?" You asked.

"Well, if you look at this paragraph, it says that they thought the walls protected them from some unknown foe. They were like demons or something."

"Fascinating...Are you done with it? I'd like to read it."

"Oh, sure!"

You two continued similar banter as you walked towards the counter. Your trip to the library had worked. You were in much better spirits than before.

Behind you two, a shadow darted across the path.


"I can see them. Want me to take them out?

"No, it's okay. Keep them in sight, though. Especially the girl."

"Will do." He hung up.

"Y/N...L/N. Intriguing."


So...Armin finally makes an appearance in the story! We have some suspicious characters who could put Y/N-chan in danger. And Levi is confused. Hope you liked it; please review so I can get some feedback! =)

As usual, the next chapter should be out in two to three weeks.
