Welcome back everyone! I hope you all are enjoying this story. Anyway, enough of the shitty intro. Let's continue!

Chapter 4

After Annie had put on the T-shirt and jeans that Armin gave her, which surprisingly fit her perfectly, she walked back out to the living room. There, Armin was opening the door to see another man and a woman.

"Good morning, Armin." said the woman.

"Hey, guys." said Armin, clearly confused about the pair's appearance. Nevertheless, he let them in his house. "What caused you to stop by?"

"Nothing really," said the man, looking uneased when he saw Annie. "Hey, could I talk to you in private, Armin?"

"Sure, Eren." Armin led Eren out of the house and shut the door, leaving Annie and the dark haired girl alone.

"So," said the girl after a few seconds. "you must be her."

Annie just looked at the woman. "And you are?"

Before she could answer, they were cut off by Armin's voice shouting, "YOU TOLD HER!?"

The girl shook her with a smirk. "Yeah, Eren can't lie to me about anything." she said.

Annie felt a twinge of panic in her stomach at the fact that more people know about her secret, but she didn't let it show. "Wonderful." she mumbled.

The girl sat down next to Annie. "Don't worry." she said. "We won't tell anyone."

"Like that's supposed to make me feel better."

"No, I suppose not." The door opened and Armin and Eren walked in. Armin looked pissed off and Eren was holding the side of his head. No doubt Armin had hit Eren. Annie almost cracked a smile.

"Mikasa," Armin said to the woman. "This stays secret. Alright?"

"Of course." Mikasa said. She looked over at Annie. "By the way, what's your name?"

"I don't think that matters to any of you." Annie said bluntly.

"If you won't tell us your name," said Eren. "Then at least explain some things to us. Like, oh I don't know, how someone can turn into a wolf?"

Annie sighed. She knew that question was coming again sooner or later. "Might as well." she said, straightening her posture on the couch. "I'm only going to say this once, so I would suggest that you listen closely." She paused for a moment before continuing. "The reason I can turn into a wolf is because I am a lycan."

"Like a werewolf?" asked Armin.

"That's one of the names you humans have chosen for us, yes. But, what you know of us is misunderstood information."

"How so?" asked Mikasa.

"One piece of information is that we do nothing but hunt humans. That is completely and utterly false. We are a peaceful race that only hunt animals."

"So you only attack humans out of self-defense." said Armin.

"Your kind doesn't believe so, but yes." Annie brushed a strand of her hair behind her ear. "I believe I'm done talking about my kind."

"So, how did you end up in the road?" asked Eren.

"Eren, what did she just say?" scolded Mikasa.

"I'm asking how she ended up in the road, not her race." Eren shot back at her.

Annie rolled her eyes and sighed. "My pack was attacked by a group of humans. My pack master told a group of us to run. We got separated, you hit me with your car, you know the rest."

"Man." said Armin. "I'm sorry about your pack."

"Why? Did you have something to do with the attack?"

"No, I'm just being-"

"Then don't feel sorry for me or my pack."

There was a moment of complete silence before Mikasa said, "What do you plan to do?"

"The minute my ribs heal, I'm out of here." Annie said. "I'll find the rest of my pack and kill the bastards who attacked us."

"Well, maybe we can help you find your pack." said Armin.

Annie scoffed. "Sure, if you feel like dying."

"Hey, I'm just suggesting an idea. You don't have to be such a hardass about it."

Annie glared at Armin. "I'm not being a hardass. You're just being stupid."

"I'm sorry, who ran blindly in front of a car in the middle of a fucking rain storm!?"

"Oh, if I'm the blind one here, what does that make-"

"ENOUGH!" Eren and Mikasa shouted. Armin and Annie stopped arguing.

"Listen, whatever your name is," said Eren. "You're in no position to do anything right now. Ribs take a long time to heal. So, why not do the smart thing and let us help you?"

Annie was quiet, mulling over her options. "I can't morph, so I can't find my pack through scent." she thought. "But, the pack could find me. Of course, it would take the help of these people to get me there." She sighed mentally. "Fuck it. What's the worst that could happen?"

"Alright, fine." said Annie. "But only so I can get back to my pack. After that, we're done." The humans nodded and Annie stood up, stretching her arms over her head. "And by the way, Eren. My name's Annie, not, "whatever your name is."

Sorry if this chapter was a little short. I hope you like it anyway. See you on the flip side! Peace!
