Eren P.O.V

It's been two hours since the incident and police were on the scene. I was then greeted by child services and her name was Hange Zoë. She was a nice woman and she has been a similar situation as I.

"Where do I go now?!", I snarled.

"You are going to an orphanage for time being until you get a new family.", she replied glumly.

I entered her card and proceeded to sob about the misfortunes that have occurred and begin to think about the rest of my life.

ONE DAY LATER:

Eren P.O.V

The murders went public and the search for Zeke had begun. I spoke with Armin and Mika earlier to help ease the pain. It was a nice orphanage where I was settled at. With decent people. What I didn't know is that someone has already decided to take pity upon me.

Richard Leonhart (Annie's Father and co-owner of Leonhart MMA) P.O.V

I arrive in the orphanage to find the kid of the late Grisha Jaëger. I owe him a favor for curing my wife of kidney cancer. (Author: My mom had it and it was cured so that's why it's used.) Plus I heard that he wanted to my Dojo. As I approach the front desk of the orphanage I am met by Eren's current care taker Hange Zoë.

"Hello there my name is Richard Leonhart founder and co-owner of Leonhart MMA.", I introduced myself.

"Nice to meet you my name is Hange Zoë I am a part time care taker at this orphanage.", she replied.

"Well ë I was hoping to adopt Eren Jaëger due to him being the child of a good friend of mine.", I stated.

"Sure all you need to do is sign some paper work and you are all set to go.", Hange stated.

As I was signing the paperwork I was trying to think up something to say to the kid besides sorry for your loss. *sigh* I guess we will cross that bridge when we get there.

"Here you go it's all done ë.", I stated nonchalantly.

"Ok. Thank you I will be back with his stuff.", replied Hange.

As I am waiting I was wondering how do I introduce him to my family I mean he's just going to be living in the dojo but still I should introduce him. Especially to Annie because for gods sake she could use some friends. All she normally does besides training is hanging out with me. I mean don't get me wrong I love hanging out with my little Ann but Jeez.

Eren P.O.V

Ms. Hange started coming down the hall to room I was occupying for the time being. Probably here to tell me my brother was found dead in the river or something.

"Erennnnnn I have terrific news. You are being adopted.", she stated with a excitable demeanor.

"By who?" , I asked faithfully.

"By Richard Leonhart.", she replied matter o factly.

I spit the water out I was drinking. It seems that things were turning out to be better. I mean I am enthralled that Richard Leonhart was my new care giver but why?

"Ok...let me get my stuff", I stated nonchalantly.

All that I have currently is my Nintendo Switch and clothes.

I then see him the hall the man that inspired me to take up for myself. I was speechless.

"Come Eren lets go home our home.", Mr. Leonhart said nicely.

I shed a single tear and continue to where he was taking me.

Narrator P.O.V

What Eren didn't know was that life was going get a lot better then a lot worse in his coming years. But that's another story for another day.
