It was around midnight. The wind rustled the bushes and swayed the trees. Owls called out and soar above and the moon served as they guidance. The stars shinned brilliantly reminiscing on all of the lives that have wished upon them. Every once and a while a star would fall granting all of the wishes of those who wished upon it showing them its grace and beauty as it fell from the stars and joined all those who fell before it. A lake not far from the barracks lay there in a silence as the wind danced along its surface creating patterns. The air was crisp and chilly as everything came alive after dark. Surfacing, scavenging, surviving. Little beam of lights glowed every once in a while in different colors but there were thousands of them they were red, green, yellow, blue. One landed on my nose and I smiled looking cross eyed at it for a while before it flew away to join its friends. I sat there under a large oak tree scrapes and scratches remain on its exterior from many of things. I watched as everything unraveled in front of my eyes. After being inside of a cell I was finally able to see the beauty in nature. My eyes were open and I could see that no matter what you are your always struggling to survive. After about midnight I had awoken from my slumber and stumbled out here just taken aback. The mountains ranged high trying to match the height of the moon. I had been training for a week now and progress was being made. Levi and I had started talking a little bit again. I really want to speak to him again. To be friends again to just be with him again. But, I'm pretty sure he did a lot of thinking while in his cell for 4 years like I did.

"Is something on your mind that your out here at night." Hanji stood their above me. I didn't even notice here while she had stood their.

"I was just thinking its nothing really important." My voice dragged on and I knew she knew what was probably on my mind. I had talked to her about it earlier the week after our first little discussion.

"Would you mind if I sat down here with you?" I shook my head and she sat down next to me and stared up at the stars. "Its a beautiful night tonight huh. The stars are always so pretty. If I was offered to be one I wouldn't give up the opportunity."

"I believe that there's a star the guides us inside of us inside of our heart." The moon could been seen from the reflection in my eye. The stars could been seen reflected in Hanji's eyes they shone and just made her eyes sparkle even more then they normally do. She nodded her hair not taking her eyes off of the sky.

"I would have to agree with you." After that we went silent all you could hear was the howling of the moon and the lonely cries of a wolf. A wolf traveling on a lonely road. Full of pain and sorrow. Sometimes I wish I could howl just to let it know its not alone in this cruel world. As time passed the sky became light Hanji and I fell asleep. The sky changed colors and the stars hid from the sun knowing they were to be out shined. The moon and sun changed positions as the black changed to an array of pallet colors. We leaned on each other our eyes closed and our breathing almost in sync. Commander Irvin strolled out to the training field, were we slept, to prep for our training. He stopped in his tracks seeing both of us leaning on each other asleep. A small laugh escaped his lips as he heard approaching foot steps. He turned seeing his second trainee.

"Do you think they slept out here all night?" Irvin asked his voice deep and friendly.

"I don't really care as long as they get up and work its fine with me." Levi shrugged as he walked toward the sleeping girls. Irvin followed him and the both stopped before them. Hanji's mouth was opened saliva was dripping down her face and snoring rather loudly. While Alice looked peaceful her eye patch wasn't on and you could see that her left eye was stitched shut almost as if she was a doll with a broken appendage.

"They both look somewhat happy." Levi knelled down and looked at Alice's left eye softly touching her face sure not to wake her.

"Its really a shame what they did to her face. She had such a beautiful face before it still is but not a pretty as back then." Levi spoke softly not wanting to wake her before he stood up.

"I can only imagine." Irvin said. "Why don't we bring them back to their rooms and take the day off. You guys have worked hard enough this past week so I think its okay to take a break." The commander stated as he looked down at the girls. Levi nodded.

"Thank you for letting us take the day off." As Levi said that he picked Alice up gently. "What room is she in."

"Shes over in building 5 room 15." Irvin said as he picked up Hanji. As he did that Hanji just had the weirdest expression on her face as she drooled all over the place.

After he got the building and room number he started walking carefully over to her room. Birds chirped a happy tune as they flew around chasing each other among the tall trees. Clouds covered the sun providing shade for everything. Butterflies landed gracefully along the flowers that aligned each building. The rare cherry blossom trees flowered and dropped the small petals that have fallen off showering the ground with the light pink beauties. It wasn't that long of a walk before Levi found the building and unknown Alice lay awake in his arms smiling to herself after peeking up at him. The room wasn't very difficult to find since it was the last one on the first floor. He walked down the abandoned hallway for now his footsteps echoing along the long stretched area. With his hands full he balanced her holding her with one arm and quickly knocked with the other. She wasn't that heavy but he found it really difficult to hold her with one arms. Petra had been worrying wondering were her roommate was and quickly jumped up in response to the knock on the door. She was up off of her bed just as quick as lighting would flash she had opened the door.

"Alice~!" Petra shouted for joy but was slightly confused when she saw a man standing there. But cheered back up when she saw her friend in his arms.

"May I come in?" Levi asked his voice cold unlike when he spoke to the commander. His expression displayed he was bored.

"Uh yeah sure go ahead." Petra moved aside and let him in. "Her beds on the left." She pointed to the neat and organized side of the room. Levi put her down on the bed and put the covers over her he sat on the side of the bed real quick he touched her face softly again and muttered something softly to himself. Watching her roommate as soon as Petra turned around he bent down and gave Alice a small kiss on the forehead before getting up and leaving. Petra turned around after hearing the door close and looked around not seeing the boy but saw her roommate sit up face redder then anything shes ever seen before. The orange hair girl quickly opened the door and saw no one in the empty hallways before closing the door and turning to her black haired friend.

"What did I miss that's making you so red, and who was that exactly?" The golden eyed girl shifted on her bed while Petra seemed to stare holes into her.

"He...was my friend I told you about...and...I think...he just kissed me." The girl covered her mouth at what she just said not sure what to do.

"Well what are you going to do?"

"Pretend that never happened so that he thinks I was asleep." Not that far away Levi was leaning up against the building trying to figure out why he did what he did. Shes like my little sister I did that because I was just glad to know she was okay. But it doesn't matter because she wasn't awake. Right?


~Time Skip~

Later that night as the sky turned into its iridescent looking glow soldiers and trainees made there way to the mess hall. People made groups as they sat down with people they knew just like in school. All except for the small table in the back reserved for the commander Hanji and his new trainees. They sat in the back laughing and joking with each other that night unlike the nights before when they would all sit there in silence because of the tension that could be felt around the trainees. They all laughed as they shared jokes and stories. I'm so glad that Levi and I are back to talking. It just makes me happy to see him smiling after such a long time.

As dawn approached they all got up and got ready. The light pink sky sighed as small gusts of wind blew around clouds scattered creating shapes and sliding throughout the sky. The night creatures returned to their place of stay to sleep for the day only to return the next night. It wasn't long before 7 that all 4 of the soldiers were out on the training field dressed and ready to go. Their 3D maneuver gear strapped to themselves.

"For today I want to take you beyond the walls to get first hand experience I know you two are capable since just in a week you have come very far. I have a feeling both of you will excel and at first you will be shaky and nervous so I am bringing a team to assist you two and help you out."

"Yes sir!"
