Hello everyone! I hope you all enjoy this chapter

Saturday (Today) 9:43 pm
"ARMIN?! MIKASA!?" Eren called out as he looked around for any sings of his friends. "Eren, I know you're worried but maybe we should stop looking for today." Marco said. "Stop? I can't! If I were missing Armin and Mikasa would be doing the same, besides, the policie don't exactly have them as their top priority" Eren said as he tried calling for them again. "How about this, Eren you go home and I'll look around for at least another twenty minutes. We can try again tomorrow once we've gotten more rest. Okay?" Jean said. Eren hesitated, he didn't want to say no, but he was tired. "You promise you'll look for them?" He asked. Jean nodded, "I promise" "thank you Jean" Eren said wearily. Jean nodded.

"Jean, its getting late. I'm going home, and pretty soon you should too." Marco said. Jean nodded, "okay, take care" Marco walked off and Jean looked at his watch, 9:53, he'd give the search until ten he told himself. Jean wondered deeper into the woods, "MIKASA? ARMIN?" He called out. He waited, not expecting an answer, but there was. "Hello? ANYONE?" A familiar voice called. Jeans heart skipped a beat, "ARMIN! IT'S JEAN WHERE ARE YOU?!" He asked. "OVER HERE FOLLOW MY VOICE!" Armin called. Jean followed the voice until he spotted a car. It was a white van on its side and had glass everywhere. "Armin!? Are you in the car?! Don't worry i'll get you out!" Jean cried.

Earlier
"Fuck!" Reiner swore as he woke up. He fell asleep on the job and would soon be late to the meeting with his client, not to mention he still had two (fully awake and pissed) "passengers" in the back. He ignored the two passengers in the back, one of which was hitting the glass separating them (which is what woke him up) and started the car. He began to drive full speed toward his destination. However Reiner, and any other driver, should never drive to fast when turning, because the laws of physics apply to driving.

The car flipped over and landed on its side, causing the windshield to break. Mikasa and Armin didn't have any seat belts or anything to hold onto and went flying. Armin quickly covered his head with his arms and Mikasa tried to do the same but hit the side of the car first. Armin hit the side as well but at least had some protection for his head. The air was knocked out of both if them. Armin could taste blood in his mouth and Mikasa was out cold. "Ugh..." Armin groaned, he had to get up. He needed to get help. Armin tried to pull himself up but his world went black.

Armin had no idea how long he had been out, but knew it couldn't too been to long. Whatever the case he knew he needed to get himself and Mikasa some help. He sat up and crawled over to Mikasa. She would probably have a concussion and was bleeding lightly but other than that she should be fine. Armin looked around, the glass separating them from the driver was cracked, but still in tact. It must've shielded them from the windshield glass but the driver wasn't so lucky. Armin frowned upon seeing the man who kidnapped him but he guess he had to help him too. If he could get out that is. The small windows in the back where broken but too small for Armin to crawl out of.

"Maybe I can reach the door handles" Armin muttered to himself as he dragged himself up and made his way over. As carefully as he could he put his arm through the hole in the cracked glass and tried to reach for the handle. He almost had it when he felt the glass dig into his arm. Armin bit his lip but didn't take his arm back. If he could get out then it'd be worth the damaged arm. He pressed further into the glass, trying to reach the handle but couldn't. He pulled his injured arm back and growled. "Dammit!" He swore. They where stuck out in the woods in a car with no phone or anyone to help. Armin was scared, cold, and really angry but what could he do about it? Nothing. He bit his lip, "what should I do?" He asked himself. Maybe if he could get Mikasa to wake up she could reach the handle? Her arms where longer, but she had a concussion so probably couldn't do it.

Armin didn't know how long he waited there and tried to think of plans to get out as well as what he'd do after. He didn't want to give up but felt himself beginning to panic. What if no one fund them and they were stuck out here till they died? No one would know what would happen to them and Eren, Eren would be ruined. Armin stood up, his determination renewed. After all, he shouldn't just give up and let them die, they were still needed. Armin decided he was going to try his luck with the glass that separated them from their captor to see if he could get out, also, he might have a phone. Armin stood up, but how was he going to break it?

Armin huffed as he began to think of what to do when he could've sworn he heard a voice. He perked up, was someone out there. He heard it again and brightened up, "Hello? ANYONE?" He called. He waited eagerly for a reply, "ARMIN! It's Jean where are you?!" "Over here, follow my voice!" He said.

Now:
Jean made his way over to the back of the van. Armin was waiting for him inside, "Jean, thank god your here!" Armin said. "Looks like I got here just in time. Is Mikasa with you?" He asked, Armin nodded, "but she is out cold, can you help us get out" he asked. Jean nodded and tried to open the doors, they wouldn't budge. "Hang on, I'll get the keys" Jean said. He made his way over to the drivers side and opened the door. He froze, a man lay in the seat unconscious and was most likely the person responsible for their disappearance. He brushed it off, right now he needed to get Mikasa and Armin out of the van. The drivers side was facing up so Jean didn't have much trouble grabbing the keys. He shut the door and made his way back to Armin.

"Ready to get out?" He asked, although he knew the answer. Armin nodded and jean opened the door. "Here, help me get Mikasa" Armin said. Jean nodded, "I will, but first I'm going to call for help." Jean said as he pulled out his phone. He called the police and then helped get Mikasa out of the van. She stirred and opened her eyes, but didn't move. They rested her against a tree and sat down by her. In about fifteen minutes the police and paramedics arrived and took a look at Armin and Mikasa.

"You two should be fine but make sure she takes it easy for the next few days, okay?" The paramedic said and Armin and Jean nodded. "Alright, you'll be taking a ride back to town with the police, they'll ask you some questions and you'll be free to go." The paramedic said and turned them loose. The ride to the station was quiet, all three of the teens ready to go home.

And that concludes the crime part of this story, next chapter we go back to the romance :3 I hope you've enjoyed the chapter and reviews are always welcome.
