Well by the look at all the people that have made it a favorite story, I guess I will be continuing. I'm glad everyone has liked it so far.
I do not own Attack on Titan.
When we finally made it inside the walls my nerves took over. My body was shaking, my hands were tightening their grip on Levi, and my head was pressed close to his back so no one could see me. I can hear all the voices of towns' people whispering about the squad that just came back.
"Didn't they just leave this place?" "They were barely gone a day." It all seemed to be about the squad not being gone very long until this one person spoke. "Didn't they only have eight people when they left? Who is the person on Captain Levi's horse?" Whispers started circling and my whole body froze. Levi's must have realized what the guy said. He lowered his head and whispered to me. "Don't worry. I'll keep you safe."
My body relaxed when those words were spoken. It almost sounded like he cared about how I was feeling. More than likely he must be trying to save his own ass. I decided to stop thinking about it. My head was kept lowered on his back with my face completely covered from the crowd. When we finally stopped I started to lift my head off his shoulder. "Keep your head down and stay on my horse. Do not leave unless my squad says otherwise." I could feel Levi getting down from his horse. When he was finally down I quickly grabbed his hand. "Wait what about our deal. You can't leave me." I demanded but when saying it in a whisper it almost sounded like I was pleading with him to not leave. I loosened my grip when he looked up at me. His eyes still just has emotionless as the moment I met him. "Unless you want to meet the Commander of the Survey Corps and the main person of the Central MP, you will stay on my damn horse and listen to my orders." I let go of his hand and switched my gaze to his horse. I could hear his footsteps move but I lost all my courage to look up at him. Fear was taking over my body. He was in there. The guy who destroyed my whole life. My body was shaking. My heart was racing. There was nothing I could do. After a few minutes had passed I heard a familiar voice coming from the crowd.
"Mommy, do you see how cool they are?" my body tensed up. Tears started to water up as I listened. "Yes dear those are the Survey Corps. The ones that are helping us rid the world of titans." Those voices, it can't be. They are so close and I can't do anything about it. The tears started to run down my cheeks and I was doing everything in my power to keep from making a sound. "So those are the good guys?" "Yes my little man, they are the ones we cheer for to return safe." The tears continued to fall. All I wanted to do was get off this horse and run to the voice but I knew I couldn't. My body was shaking even worse now and my tears were no longer under my control. "Do you think they will find Sis one day?" my body froze, that was it, I couldn't not just sit here with my family just a few feet from me. I started to bring my hand to get off the horse but before I knew there was another hand on mine. "That is not a good idea." I knew who the voice belonged to but I brought my eyes to his anyways. My red, puffy, eyes and my tear stained face looked down to him. "But they are right there. How do I… How can I… they still hope for my return.." My hand was shaking under his grip and he looked me in the eyes. "Remember what you told me? If they realize you are here, their lives will be in danger. So sit still and don't go against my orders again." He let go off my hand and pull himself back on to his horse.
"Let go you dumb shits. I rather not waste the rest of my day with you shitheads." He yelled to his squad behind him. I returned my grip to Levi and brought my head back down. It took everything I had to not look back to find them in the crowd. No matter how much I hated it, Levi was right. If I gave into my temptation to see my family now, they would be hurt. I continued to let my tears fall knowing that there was a good chance I would never hear those voices again. I let my eyes drift close as I tried to remember anything I could about my family.
"Catch me if you can?!" the little boy yelled as I can chasing after him. "I'm coming to get you Christopher! You can't run from me forever." I could see him bolting towards to trees on the far end of town. I ran as fast I could to catch up to him. After just a few minutes I quickly grab his hand. We both lost our balance and fell straight to the ground. "That's no fair Sis! You weren't supposed to catch me." I let out a little laugh as I pull my baby brother into my arms. "Well what did you expect me to do little man? Let you escape me?" A small little "YES" left his mouth. I couldn't help but laugh at him. We both looked up at the sky and stayed there for what felt like hours.
"It's time to go home Christopher. We can't have Mom and Dad worrying about us, now can we?" I stood up and reached to pull him up. As we started to wall back Christopher stopped and pull at my hand. "What's wrong?" I asked him getting down to his height. "You'll always be there to catch me, right?" My eyes wondered over him as he stared me in the eyes. "No matter what little man. I'll always be there to catch you."
A sudden stop woke me up. I lifted my head off Levi's back and looked around. We were no longer in town and were now in front of an old beat down castle in the middle of nowhere. "You can get down now." I quickly looked up realizing Levi was speaking to me. Making my way off the horse I continued to look around. It wasn't much different from the landscape I had been living on for a year, except for the huge castle in front of me. My thoughts were cut short when Levi spoke up.
"This is where my Squad and I stay when we are not on expeditions. There are extra rooms available for you to stay in. Take your pick." My eyes wondered over towards Levi. "Is there a clean room available next to yours Levi?" He looked hesitant at first but that disappeared within seconds. He must have remember are deal about always being around me. "You can stay in the room attached to mind. But that damn place better stay clean at all times." He turned around and started making his way inside the building. I took another look around me and then glanced over at Levi. "This should be interesting. At least there will be a hot soldier next to my room." I whispered to myself but apparently not quiet enough.
"What was that shit head?" My face quickly turn red. "It was nothing Levi." I started making my way towards the castle but stopped just as quick as I started. "Wait a minute!? What did I say about calling me those stupid damn names?!" I let out a small laugh and went running towards Levi to punch him in the face.
So I still have not decided on what the Intel Alex Scarlet has on the Central MP's just yet. If you have any ideas message me. I would love to hear your thoughts about it. Also as you can tell by reading this chapter our dear like Alex has the hots for Captain Levi. If you think he should return those feelings at some point, let me know!
I am so happy you are enjoying this! I'm not sure how often I will be updating this story but I will do my best to have at least one chapter posted a week!?
