Chapter 2

Mikasa

The gates opened wide as we began our expedition, the horses beginning there trot as they rush out of walls. Our expedition began, and we broke in formation not long after the gate was confirmed to be closed.I took command of my squad, and we took of in anorth east direction, not long after squad one took off.

There where ten squads, and I was leading squad 2. We communicated using had signals, but we didn't have many problems until we hit the forest. As soon as we crossed the line, an abnormal dashed on all fours through us, mouth wide open. Most of us say it and where able to avoid its attack, but it quickly scooped up one of the rookies. We quickly changedto odm now that we where in better positioning. Now moving though the sky, the titan became confused and we quicklymoved into attack position.

"Rox, sumi, cross position!" I yelled at some of the rookies.With a bit of hesitance the two of them swooped by each other and cut down on the Titansnape almost perfectly in sync. with the threat avoided, we continuedon forward, but we couldn't use our horsesanymore because we left them back at the forest line.

As we moved from tree to tree, I fought a glimpse of something, or someone. It was moving through the trees, using one of our cloaks, but it couldn't possible be one of us, it wasn't in our formation and we they couldn't possibly be from another regiment, for they wouldn't be this close to us, not for a bit anyways.

"Sam, someone might be following us. I'm putting you in charge" I said to one of our younger veterans. I then dashed out of formation, trailing the person. They quickly noticed me and began to head deeper into the woods, so I dashed after.

They where quickly speeding up, making it harder for me to keep track of them. I followed them through the tree's, barely able to keep track of them, but then they suddenly stopped on a tree branch, so I hooked too the one next to them, drawing my swords in case they attack.

"Who are you, and why are you following us!?" I shrieked at them, but they didn't respond. they stood on the branch, wearing what looked like old scout regiment clothes and one of our cloaks, yet there face was completely covered.

"I said, who are you!?" I repeated my self, impatiently waiting for a response. They took there arms out of the cloak, and pointed in the direction of my regiment.

Annoyed with how they where acting I desited I would take there hood off myself to see who they where, so I hooked too the tree they where standing on and began my assault.

I dashed forward, my hand out to grab there hood off but they quickly moved out of the direction of my attack.

I then dashed again, but this time to the branch they where standing on to attack them. I landed and repeated one last time,

"Show me who you are now!" There was a bit of silence but they did take off there hood. There I saw a man, rugged and dirty but something was familiar about them.

I looked deep into there eyes and my entire childhood felt like it just slapped me in my face, until it zeroed in on one person; Eren.

"...Eren? Y-your alive?" I stuttered. I stood looking at my friend alive and well, out beyond the walls.

"Eren died years ago. I have no name, no home, no life." They replied, and then launched themself down below. I rushed to the edge to catch a glimpse of them, but in a small explosion, he disappeared.

No one else saw him, noticed him. It was just me. I was quickly pointed out by one of the others in team one, and was sent back to my team...

"Interesting" he said, let's crossed as we stopped right infront of the scout H.Q. "This is a mystery that for sure, must be solved. But for now, see you in side." He said, and waved to me as I walked into the H.Q. "Ok," I said to my self, "I got this."
