Hey TheHeartlessNukia here!
This is such a random fanfiction idea, I keep doing this all the time when I'm watching animes. So anyway, this is based on Attack on Titan: No Regrets. I've only seen it twice and I've started reading some of the manga's to it which has basically got me interested in writing my fanfiction idea down. I've been researching into the underground city and stuff, I'm not 100% if the information I have found is right. It will also have Farlan Church and Isabel Magnolia in it at some point, it doesn't have their names in the character story options on here. If anyone has anymore information to share then PM me, I'm all ears. The chapters are not going to be that long in this fanfiction, I plan to write about 10 chapters for it, but knowing me it will go over.
I've never written an Attack on Titan fanfiction before, I'm normally writing about Death Note. This is going to be one of those on the side fanfics while I'm writing my main fanfics for a change of scene, so it will be slow updates between work. Thank you for the Reviews, favorites, Alerts and to the unknown people who read my story too.
I hope you enjoy the opening chapter, if not I'm sorry! I'm not the worlds greatest writer, I'm more of a storyteller lol
Chapter 11!
When Levi said he had a job for me I thought it would be something dangerous, but it turned out that he wanted me to look after this young girl who had turned up at our house for him while he went out for a few hours. I found out that her name was Isabel Magnolia, she had turned seventeen a few weeks ago and she was also born in the Underground City like me. She was cheerful and quiet sweet in her own way, the way she nursed that little injured bird she had found was lovely. I found a old tea box the bird could sleep in and I gave it some bread crumbs, it seemed happy enough in the box.
After an hour I decided to warm up the vegetable stew, I set out the table and placed a plate of freshly homemade bread rolls in the middle of the table. Isabel and Farlan sat down at the table while I served up the stew. Isabel was first to grab a bread roll from the plate, she then took a big bite out of it and spooned about three mouth fulls of stew into her while she was still chewing her bread. The poor girl was either starving or she just had a big appetite, I just hope she saves some food for the rest of us.
I sat with them at the table and spoke to them both about the book I had been reading while we ate our dinner. Isabel was interested in what I had to say, she told me she never had time to look at books because she couldn't read that well. But she wanted to go up to the upper world, she wanted to see the sky and breath in the fresh air instead of the dirty air down here. After dinner Isabel had a shower, I helped her to wash her hair and found a spare nightgown of mine that she could borrow. I told her she could share my bedroom until we found her somewhere to sleep, she told me fine and quickly hurried to my room. I didn't even have to show her which bedroom was mine, she said she could tell a woman slept in this room because it was tidy and it didn't smell of sweaty men.
I told her I would be back in an hour or two while I placed a lit candle on the dresser, I had to tidy the kitchen before I went to bed. She said goodnight to me while she yawned, I left my bedroom and party closed the door behind me. I made my way back downstairs and began to clear the table while Farlan swept the floor around the table, there were bread crumbs everywhere. It wasn't long until the kitchen was tidy, I made a fresh pot of tea and Farlan decided to finish his bottle of wine he had been drinking with his dinner.
We sat together on the bench and chatted quietly to each other about Isabel, we didn't really know much about her. Farlan explained to me what had happened when I was hiding in the pantry, I couldn't believe Isabel risked her life by trying to take the bird to the upper world. She clearly had guts, I think she will fit nicely into our little group. Our conversation turned to Levi after a while, he had been out for ages now. I questioned Farlan and asked him if he knew where he had gone, but he refused to tell me. I watched as he took a swig of wine from his bottle, I crossed my arms and stared at him until his full attention was back on me.
" Stop staring at me, you're putting me off my wine..." He sighed.
" Where is he?" I asked.
" Who?" He asked.
" You know who, so stop playing silly little games with me..." I replied.
" Oh you mean Levi, I can't tell you where he his right now..." He smiled slightly while he brought his wine bottle to his lips. " It's private manly business, little women are not meant to know about it..."
" You're making more curious now, tell me!" I said.
" No..." He chuckled.
" Please tell me, I need an idea when he will be back so I can make sure his dinner is on the table before I go to bed..." I said while I placed my hand on his wine bottle and lowered it from his mouth. " You can trust me, I won't tell anyone..."
" Lorna!" He party yelled.
" You know where Levi is don't you?" I asked.
" Of course I do! He told me where he was going before he left, just stop asking me about his location now because you're beginning to annoy me..." He replied. " He will be back soon, why don't you go and get ready for bed. I hear you're going to be sharing your bed with Isabel tonight, I don't think Levi will be too impressed by that one. How are you planning to sleep anyway? Side by side or top and tails? Either way it will be a tight squeeze, you may have to resort to cuddling..."
" Stop trying to change the subject..." I sighed.
" I'm changing nothing, you're getting serious over nothing..." He said.
I removed my hand from his wine bottle and got up from the bench, I told him I was going to my bedroom now. I said goodnight to him and told him that there was some leftover stew in the cooking pot for Levi, he said he would tell him when he returned home. I hurried up the staircase and made my way to my room. I crept into my bedroom and quietly closed the door behind me because Isabel was fast asleep. I got changed into my nightgown, I brushed my hair and closed my bedroom's window's shutters. I walked over to my bed and pulled the blankets back at the end of my bed, I hope Isabel doesn't fidget in her sleep. I listened to Isabel snoring while I placed a pillow at the other end of my bed, she rolled over onto her stomach and tucked her feet underneath my pillow. Something tells me she's going to be a nightmare, how will I get any sleep if she's a bed hogger? I looked over my shoulder when I heard someone knock on my bedroom's door, I hurried over to the door and opened it.
I was greeted by Levi, he was holding a teacup of tea in his hand with a blank expression on his face. I glanced over at Isabel before I walk through the doorway of my room, I quietly closed the door behind me and leaned back against the door. I watched Levi take a sip of his tea, but then I noticed some red coloured stains on his shirt's sleeve. I knew to well what those stains were, something tells me his outing this evening wasn't so innocent as Farlan had tried to make it out.
Levi asked me to walk with him, I gave him a slight nod of my head and followed him down the corridor. We stopped at the window at the end of the corridor, he placed his teacup down on the window sill and took his knife from his knife's leg holster. His knife's blade was stained with blood which was rare because he would normally clean it before he put it in his leg holster, he took a rag from his trouser pocket and began to clean his knife while he looked out of the window. We stood in silence and watched a group of men outside of the tavern near our house, they were probably up to no good I thought to myself as I wrapped my arms around myself with a sigh. I was getting chilly standing near the window, it could sometimes get cold in the Underground City even though we didn't experience weather like the upper world. I remember reading in a book once about underground caverns, the deeper you go underground the colder it would get even if it was hot on the surface.
" How's Isabel?" Asked Levi.
" She's fine, she ate loads of stew with bread and then she had a shower before she went to bed..." I replied. " The poor girl was starving, but I think she will fit in nicely with us here. I will get her started on cleaning duties in the morning, it will be nice having a girl around the place..."
" I see..." He said.
" So where have you been this evening?" I asked.
" Nowhere important..." He replied.
" I know that's a lie, you've been up to no good because you've got blood on your shirt's sleeve..." I said while I turned my full attention to him. " You've been fighting again, haven't you? Who did what this time?"
" Farlan is right, you're getting too nosy..." He replied.
" I'm just taking an interest in what you both do..." I said with a smile. " So I really wouldn't call it being nosy, it's called caring about my friends..."
" I see..." He said.
" You're really hard to talk to sometimes, your replies are mostly two words or just insults..." I sighed while I looked out of the window. " You've go to learn to be more talkative with people, you would make more friends that way..."
" Alright then, what did you do with your time today?" He asked.
" Cleaning, cooking and reading..." I replied with a sigh. " Nothing exciting at all, just the normal duties of a housekeeper. Maybe I should take up your offer about learning how to use three dimensional maneuver gear even though they frighten me half to death, then maybe I will be able to come with you and Farlan on one of your jobs in the future. Nothing too dangerous mind you, something simple which doesn't involve being punched in the face..."
" Has you wish..." He said.
I turned my full attention to Levi and watched him cleaning his knife, I'm surprised he's even said yes to what I had asked him. He stopped cleaning his knife after a while and placed his knife down on the window sill, but what he said to me next was out of character. He offered me his bed for the night, he told me he rarely use his bed and he preferred to sleep in his armchair. I thought his offer through and hesitated before I gave him an answer, I'm not sure if I would feel comfortable sleeping the same room has him. But a bed of my own sounds good right now, it beats going top and tail with Isabel.
" Okay, I will take up your offer..." I said.
