A.N. I do not own Attack on Titan. This is my first time writing a fanfic for this so please excuse me if it isn't exactly right.
Warnings for this chapter: Nothing bad but swearing.
XXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXX
Levi awakes to the sounds of two people arguing. From the sound of it one of them is Isabel. He puts a hand on his head and rubs it as he sits up, slowing opening his eyes. It is bright so for a few seconds he just squints until the light is bearable. What he sees then in front of him is funny. It looked like a lady doctor was trying to get Isabel out of bed but Isabel did not want that.
Levi smiles slightly at that and looks around to see that they are in what appears to be an infirmary. Isabel and the lady doctor where across from him and to the right of him he could see Farlan still fast asleep, loud snores coming out of his mouth every so often. Looking back at Isabel he listens to what is being said.
"No! I told you I don't want to leave here until my friends wake up!" Isabel snaps at the lady. The lady just glares at Isabel. Levi gives a small sigh and decides to tell them that he is awake.
"Hey, shit face, I am awake so you can go do whatever the lady here wants you to do. I am assuming its probably take a bath because seriously I can smell you from all the way over here!" Levi says with a small wrinkle of his nose. He knows he doesn't smell any better but he would at least wash himself once a week unlike Isabel and Farlan who would only do it once a month.
Both the doctor and Isabel stop arguing as soon as he starts talking and turn to face Levi. Isabel glares at him for what he said.
"Shut up, asshole!" She hisses at him. Despite the glare on her face Levi notices a relieved look on her face. The doctor lets out a cough.
"No swearing! How many times must I tell you that?" She glares at Isabel before turning to Levi. "And you! Also no swearing!"
"'Tis not gonna work!" Says a sleepy voice. They all look over towards Farlan and see him stretching and yawning as he sits up. He looks at the doctor with a crooked smile on his face. "Levi and Isabel are known for swearing and telling them to stop is like telling...hmm...like telling an alcoholic not to drink!" The doctor lets out a hmph at that.
"Well here in the hospital ward we do not swear so please try to refrain from it!" She snaps. They all nod their heads at it but don't make any promises.
After that conversation Levi and Farlan learned that before they had woken up that the doctor, Lacinda Maca or just Dr. Maca, had been trying to convince Isabel to come with her where she would be shown a place to shower before Dr. Maca started running some test on her to see if she had any diseases or such. Dr. Maca quickly convinced Isabel after the urging from Levi and Farlan that it would be alright for to her go with the doctor.
A few minutes after they left the hospital wards main sick room two more doctors came in. Dr. Charles Mace, Dr. Maca's husband from Levi's guessing, and Dr. Lenny Cooper were their names they told the two. Dr. Charles showed the two men to a washroom where they were able to take showers. Farlan was skeptical about the soap they were handed at first sense where they came from soap was not heard of. Levi fell in love with the bar of soap and took a good amount of time using it to clean himself off.
Once both men were done with their showers they were both handed a pile of clothes and told to put them on. Once done with that they were led to a room where they saw Isabel having a needle poked into her arm. Soon after that they also hand needles in their arms and the tests to check their health started. Despite all the questions being asked about their diets and such, none of the doctors would answer the questions that Levi, Isabel and Farlan asked.
"Dammit! Why won't any of you tell us why we are here?" Farlan hisses out finally after Dr. Cooper avoided his questions again. The doctors all look at eachother and then back at them.
"Well we will have your test results back in a few hours. Until than Commander Smith will like to speak with you." Dr. Maca says. "My husband will take you three there." Dr. Charles stands up from the chair he had been sitting on and walks towards the door.
"Come along you three. Commander Smith doesn't like people to be late," Dr. Charles says without even looking back at any of them. Levi is the first to follow him and Isabel and Farlan are quick to also follow after that.
They follow Dr. Charles all the way through the hospital ward and out into a hallway. They walk for what feels like an hour, not encountering anybody, before they finally stop in front of a door. Dr. Charles knocks twice on the door quickly and loudly.
"Come in." The deep voice of Commander Erwin Smith calls out. The sound of it causes Levi to shiver. Damn he was going to have to learn to control that.
"I must head back to the hospital ward so you three go in." Dr. Charles looks at Levi and nods his head as he says this, a look that says 'go in now or else' clearly written on his face.
Levi takes a deep breath before opening the door and stepping in, Isabel and Farlan right behind him. Levi stops after a few steps into the room and sees the Commander looking down at some papers on his desk, a frown on his face. Isabel steps up to the right of him and Farlan steps to the left of him. They all stare at the Commander, waiting for him to say something. Behind them they hear the door begin to close and when Levi looks he sees Dr. Charles closing it. Dr. Charles gives him a small smile before the door closes and Levi can no longer see him.
Levi looks back to the Commander and sees him straightening his papers up. After the Commander is done straightening his things up he looks up at the three of them with a small smile on his face as he stands up.
"Ah I see the doctors got you all cleaned up and new clothing to wear. That was nice of them." He walks around his desk and Levi stares at him, wondering what he is going to do.
Instead of walking towards them he just walks in front of his desk and leans against it, crossing his arms as he does. The man looked relaxed. Levi frowns at that. How could he be relaxed when he was in their presence? Didn't he worry that they would try to escape?
"Now I know you all are probably are wondering why you are here and not in some Military Police cell waiting to be killed." The Commander pauses here and looks at them. The three of them nod their heads, showing that yes they were wondering. "Well I have decided to have you three join the Survey Corps. From what my men say and what little I saw you three are really good at using the 3D Maneuver Gear, even better than some men who went through training and have been using it for years are."
Levi stares at the man in stunned silence and from what he can tell, Farlan and Isabel are stunned too. This man wanted them to join the Survey Corps?
"You want us to join..the Survey Corps?" Levi ask the Commander just to make sure that he had heard right.
"Yes. It is either you join or you will be sent to the Military Police and well...we all know what would happen if you went to them."
Levi frowns for a second. Hmm join the one thing he has always wanted to join or go to some assholes who would probably kill him? Yep Survey Corps it was. Letting the frown drop he looks over at Farlan and Farlan gives him a nod so he looks at Isabel who does the same. Giving a deep sigh he looks back at the Commander.
"Alright, Commander, we will join the Survey Corps," Levi tells the man. The man smirks triumphantly as if he knew that they would agree to that.
"Excelent!" The man turns and walks back around his desk and sits in his chair. He grabs some papers. "Now before making this really official we are going to have to wait for the doctors to get your test results back and I have some questions to ask." He looks down at one of the papers and writes a few things down. When he looks back up, he looks at Farlan. "Okay hazel eyes I am going to need you to tell me a few things."
"First off: What is your name?" The man looks at Farlan waiting for him to answer while Farlan looks at me. I give a small nod of my head, signalling for him to answer the question. If we were joining we had to be honest with them.
"My name is Farlan Church, sir." The Commander writes down something on his paper quickly.
"Your date of birth? Age? Any family members? Are you married?" The Commander ask the next four questions all very quickly. Farlan takes a deep breath.
"Ah my date of birth is June 20th. My age is 24. My only family members are these two here..and of course I am not married." The Commander quickly writes down what Farlan said and nods his head.
"Alright. You next red head. Please answer the same questions I asked your friend." The Commander grabs another piece of paper while he waits for Isabel to answer.
"My name is Isabel Magnolia. My birth date is in the month of September but I do not know the day exactly. My parents died when I was really young so I never could learn the proper day. My age is 22. I am not married and my two friends here are my only family." Isabel tells the Commander slowly, giving him enough time to catch it all and write it down. The Commander looks up at Isabel and smiles at her once he is done writing. He looks at Levi next.
"Okay you next kid." He smiles as he says this and Levi glares.
"I am not a kid, dumbass!" Levi snaps at him. The man blinks and one of his eyebrows that Levi has always found strange, yet hot, since he first saw the man raises up in question.
"I am 26." Levi tells him as he keeps glaring. He sees the surprise on his face.
"Are you serious?" There is shock in the Commanders voice.
"Yes I am serious!" Levi snaps again. The Commander blinks a little and then coughs as he grabs a piece of paper.
"Well than..I am sorry for having called you a kid. I just assumed because of your-" He stops talking. "Well how about you answer those questions now?"
"Alright. My name is Levi Ackerman. I am 26 and my birthdate is December 25th. I have no family members except for Isabel and Farlan. Also I am not married." Levi pulls a face as he says the last part. The thought of getting married had never appealed to him. The Commander quickly writes down what Levi had told him. Once he is done he looks up at the three of them. Isabel suddenly decides to speak up than.
"Sir, how come you didn't have anybody watching us? What if we had tried to escaped?" She ask the Commander. The big man smiles and shakes his head.
"Did you even think of trying to escape?" Levi blinks at what he said. No he hadn't and from the looks on Farlan's and Isabel's faces neither had they. The smile falls off the mans face when they shake their heads no.
"See I didn't need to worry." He sighs. "Now I have more questions to ask you. Such as how you got the 3D Maneuver Gear." The next few minutes Levi, Isabel and Farlan explain to the Commander about how they had gotten the gear and that they really had only used it because they really needed it. The man is silent once they finished talking. He looks at them, a blank look on his face for a few minutes before suddenly smiling.
"Well that wasn't as bad as I thought it would be," He says. Levi blinks and the man smirks.
"Commander?" Levi says, wondering what the man means.
"Oh don't be so shocked. You three won't be getting in any trouble even for stealing the gear and now knowing that you only used it to get you food, it makes me feel better about not letting the Military Police kill you." The Commander stands. "Now how about I show you three to your rooms so you can get settled into them? It will be a few hours before the test results come back I bet and I need to get this here paperwork finished." With that being said the man strides around his desk and walks over to the door, where he holds it open for them.
