"Hiya! I'm Captain Hanji Zoe, but just call me Hanji. I will be taking one of you into my Squad while the other two will go in Erwin or Levi's squad." Hanji smiled at the cheerfully.
Rosie was about to raise her hand to join her squad, more afraid of brutal Levi or Creep Erwin, but Soul had already piped up.
"You experiment on Titans right? I'll join!" Soul smiled brightly.
"Are you a scientist too?" Hanji grabbed Soul's hands.
Soul's grin widen, "My mother is Crayna Katsuo!"
Hanji squealed, "The famous scientist who created a child using only her dna! You're that child right!? Oh, Your mother must of told you brilliant experiments!"
"Soul also made some of his own. Though low key they are still pretty cool." Alex commented.
"That's amazing what did you test them on?!"
Soul patted Alex's back, "This sucker right here, Alexan Wilde, my best friend and most valuable test subject. So far I have succeeded in making his bones stronger and changing his hair color. I haven't had the chance to try my more dangerous on him. Lack of time."
"How much stronger did his bones become?" Hanji asked excited, this could help out humanity greatly.
"I can jump off a three story building. I'm not sure if that tells you much." Alex murmured.
Hanji smiled, this was a great subject, "If you are willing would you allow more experiments to be performed on yourself while you are serving the Scouting Legion."
Alex smiled, "Only if Soul is the one performing them."
Hanji held her hand out to Alex, "You have yourself a deal."
Alex shook her hand firmly, "Deal. By the way where would I met Erwin, I'll be on his squad."
Rosie squeaked, "Alex are you sure you want to do that?"
"It's fine, besides you find him creepy, I trust that Corporal Levi won't hurt you." Alex patted Rosie's head much to her dismay.
"B-But, what he did to Eren…" Rosie looked at the ground trembling.
"Hey, that has more than a whim behind it. I'll give you a few, Eren is a titan, Eren is a boy, and it was to prove a point to the Military Police. You will be safe." Alex reassured the nervous girl.
"But you and Soul always said Humans are the beings you must fear above all else!" Rosie protested, looking up.
"Hey, Hanji. Which one of these brats is on my squad?" Levi's voice chilled over the group as he approached.
Rosie swallowed, 'I don't have to be afraid of him! Who am I kidding? He is humanite's strongest soldier..' "I-I am sir!" Rosie saulted.
"What is your name?" Levi stared down at Rosie.
"Rosie Synder, Sir." Rosie slowly began to relax seeing Alex and Soul standing behind Levi, making stupid faces to make her feel better. Even Hanji joined in, must be because of how fun it looked, Rosie wished she could make funny faces with them too.
"Bottom of the chain I assume." Levi's eyes narrowed at her.
Rosie's eye twitched, "I was ranked number eight in the class, sir." 'Asshole! I wouldn't have expected much of him upon first glance if I hadn't known who he was. He's not much taller than me!'
Levi's eyebrow raised, "Perhaps you will be of some use, Brat."
"Heichou!" Eren called out, running over. Soul, Alex and Hanji began to whistle, they didn't do anything remotely stupid when Levi's back was turned.
"What is it, Brat?" Levi glared at Eren.
"The Military police said that since so few recruits have joined this year, we won't be able to get any more horses till next breeding season." Eren looked at him slightly upset himself.
Levi clicked his tongue, "There's nothing we can do, then."
Eren turned to the new recruits and grinned, "Alex! Soul! I haven't seen you guys in ages! How have you been?"
Alex smirked, "Well, we aren't dead, so nothing to really complain about."
Soul nodded, "How are you? Especially with the whole revenge thing?"
Eren blushed lightly, "You heard about that huh?"
Alex chuckled, "I think a lot of people heard on the boat."
Soul nodded, "Not to mention we were around the corner when you screamed, 'Mom'."
Eren looked down, saddened, his friends heard him, they must of saw how weak he was. So much that he couldn't protect his mother.
"Hey Now, It's not as bad as When Alex was sitting on the wall with his father." Soul laughed, that was hilarious.
"What happened?" Alex and Eren asked, Alex had some faulty memory when it came to herself, Soul wrote it down as a side effect from one of the experiments.
"A Titan crashed with the wall causing you to drop your chicken sandwich, it fell in a titan's mouth. I think you scared the whole town yelling, 'You stupid fucking cunt, I will end you! I will teach you how to speak so when I kill you slowly and painfully you can beg for all the mercy you want but it will never end, I will keep you alive for years so when I am an old lady I may feast upon your body and drink your blood as my final meal before I have someone kill you!'"
Soul recited the whole saying, upon hearing it again Alex laughed, she remembered.
"And then I proceeded trying to teach titans how to speak. Man, I was an idiot!" Alex fell to the ground laughing.
Rosie giggled, "It's amazing that you were number five, huh? I'm surprised you weren't number three!"
Alex sighed looking at the sky, "Nah, I think I should have been in the bottom. I still think those teachers were on some serious drugs, placing me in the top ten."
Levi coughed, "Jaeger, Synder, let's get back to HQ."
Rosie nodded obediently. "Yes, sir!"
She cast a glance back at her friends, mouthed 'goodbye', and then hurried to get in formation behind Levi and Eren.
Hanji patted Soul's shoulder, "I think you all will be great to have on the teams."
Alex sighed as she helped Armin and Whiner (Reiner) load the supply carriage.
"You are a lot stronger then you look Alex." Reiner complemented.
"Thanks, I guess." Alex grunted, she really hated the three Titans. They pissed her off, well more Whiner and Burnthole than Annie. Annie was cool, besides the fact she's going to destroy Levi's Squad and destroy Levi's heart.
Alex sighed, it seemed her crush on Levi that had formed when she'd read about him in her home world had carried over and was now wracking her heart.
'Stupid feelings! Why can't I be like Soul and not care?' Alex's inner chibi cried.
"Whoa,Whoa girl calm down!" Jean tried to calm down one of the horse he was tending, but the horse flipped, literally. It was caught on some near by rope Alex was gathering to put on the cart and it fell on her. Armin, Reiner and Jean stared in shock as the thousand and forty pound horse fell on top of a hundred pound 5'0 boy.
"QUICK GO GET HELP!" Jean screamed at Armin, who quickly obliged.
Reiner and Jean went to pick up the horse but they could only get a tiny bit of room between Alex and the creature, before dropping it.
"Please...Stop..Helping.." Alex begged after they dropped the horse on her for the fifth time.
The two backed away, irritated and anxious as their comrade was being crushed before them. Alex took a moment to catch her breath before she grabbed the horse's massive flank and began to push it off. The large animal was kicking all the while, desperately trying to regain its footing. Once Alex had pushed it to the point where she could sit up, she heaved the beast off her legs and stood it up.
"Thats how it's done, bitches!" Alex grinned widely, triumph blocking out the sensation of pain from the bruises she'd received when Reiner and Jean had dropped the massive equine on her.
The two men stared at him in shock. What they'd been unable to accomplish together, the small boy had done on his own in one try.
Alex reached into her breast pocket and pulled out a loaf of bread that she been saving from that morning, "Damn, it's flat.." She shrugged at quickly consumed the grain.
Armin had brought the first batch of fit soldiers he saw which so happened to be, Hanji, Erwin, Levi, A new recruit, Eren and Mikasa.
"What is the meaning of this Arlet?" Levi glared at him, clearly no one was stuck under a horse.
"Wh-What but, he was! I swear!" Armin pleaded looking over at the boy who was sitting on the ground eating bread.
Reiner snapped out of his daze first, "Armin isn't lying sir, he was stuck under a horse, but he pushed it right off of himself."
"Hey Soul! Come check my ribs! Horse face and Whiner dropped the horse on me five times!." Alex called, looking at the group without much care.
"H-Horse Face?!" Jean snapped out of it angry at the small boy.
"Whiner?!" Reiner was shocked at the fact the little twerp insulted him.
Soul slapped them both across the face as he walked over to his precious experime- best friend.
Soul picked up Alex holding him in one arm while she practically sat on his shoulder, "Wow I'm so tall!"
"Hanji, is there somewhere I can examine him in private?" Soul asked, not wanting anyone to find out Alex's true gender.
"Yes, follow me." Hanji began to lead them away.
"You owe me twenty bucks." Alex whispered.
"Yea yea, you and your stupid bet." Soul grumbled.
Hanji opened a tent curtain allowing the two go ahead of her, "What bet?"
Alex's eyes gleamed, "That Jean and Reiner wouldn't be able to pick up a horse." She was placed on a table.
Soul turned his head over his shoulder, "Please leave."
Hanji laughed, "Well, I'll wait right out here for you guys."
As the curtain closed Soul waited a few minutes before motioning Alex to take her shirts off, "Tch. You and your under tops."
Soul's cold hands traced up Alex's warm muscled stomach up to the bandages. Slowly taking them off to reveal her breast he checked every ribs twice, also watching for any signs of Alex holding pain in.
"No ribs are broken, your torso only seems to have taken a light bruising. Lean back." Soul commanded. Alex leaned back on her forearms shivering from the chilled air, she enjoyed being able to breathe without those damn bandages. Soul lifted her leg and began to push, pull and twist it in different directions. Letting it fall down he tested the other one out, his nose crinkled. "You have some fractures in your leg, I'll have to get an x-ray to see the full damage to it. Sit up." Soul commanded.
Sitting up straight Soul turned the girl around looking at her back, "You look good, let's bandage you again. I'll look at your arms and request an X-ray on your leg."
Soon Alex's breathing was once again restricted, "The only thing that seems to be showing problems is your right leg. I am going to go talk to Hanji while you get dressed." Soul exited the tent.
Quickly Alex put her shirts on and jumped down from the table, only to fall to the floor, grabbing her right leg. "Ow."
