(A/N: This is my first time writing Erwin so please give helpful tips as to how to write him better, as for me right now he is hard to write, it would be much appreciated)
She was found, passed out, on that very rooftop, more titans slowly coming closer. Those were dispatched quickly, and she was put on a cart. Levi was nowhere to be found, but people refused to assume the worst.
part two
"It's been five days Moblit, she hasn't woken up yet, each day the chances would normally get slimmer."
"I know Mike, and here I was always thinking she would get eaten by one of those titans she was always experimenting on."
"We still don't know what happened to Captain Levi either, if she would just wake up we could find out."
Hmm. It was these two voices again, she was often hearing them when she could hear anything. One was named Moblit and the other Mike, the names sounded familiar but she couldn't place them, nor the voices. She didn't remember this Captain Levi person they kept mentioning either, really almost everything was kinda a blur. Bits and pieces of her past were available, enough to know her name was Hanji, she studied titans for the Survey Legion, and had a high position, but not much else. She could not hear for long, it went in and out, and opening her eyes was out of the question right now, same with moving, but she figured she was probably in a hospital, with no clue how she got there.
The energy she had exerted to hear that one snippet of conversation took its toll and she fell back into sleep again.
Oh, there were voices again. She heard them as if listening through water, and focused to bring them to attention.
"7 days and counting, her condition at least seems to be getting better, but at this rate she won't ever wake up." It was that one person, Moblit, she thought. He seemed to be talking to himself.
This was frustrating, hearing but being unable to pin the voice with a face, unable to sit up and look at them. So, with all her might, she forced her eyes open, and took in what was indeed a hospital room, a nurse, and a light blond haired man standing next to her bed. The lights were blindingly bright and she blinked rapidly to try and make her eyes adjust.
"Hanji!? Are you awake?" The man (Moblit) said.
"Uuuugh, yeah, if this is what awake is." She said, feeling very stiff but at least fully aware.
"You have been asleep for 7 days, what happened?"
"I-I don't really know."
"What about Captain Levi though? What happened to him?"
"Who?" She tilted her head curiously.
Before she could hear his response however her ears so rudely decided to stop working, and her eyes refused stubbornly to stay open, so she contented herself to falling back asleep.
"I swear Erwin, she woke up! She spoke to me and looked at me, we had a conversation!" It was that person, Moblit again. He was talking this time to someone named Erwin. She had heard the name somewhere before, probably in one of Moblit's talks with Mike.
"Really? Well then, did she say anything about Captain Levi?" Erwin, or at least the person she assumed was Erwin, said.
"I asked if she remembered what had happened and she said no, then I asked if she remembered specifically what happened to Captain Levi, and she asked me who that was…"
At this point either silence was consuming the room or her hearing had gone out again, but she was fairly sure that it was the former. Eventually though noise was made from one of them, Moblit.
"Maybe it is the fact that she is still in and out of consciousness, and couldn't recall the name at the moment due to having not fully recovered."
"Maybe…" Though by Erwin's voice here Hanji could assume that she was supposed to recognize this name, Levi whatever, instantaneously.
No use pondering it for now though, she thought, it would be much better to sleep and recover faster than trying to decode that. So with that she drifted off to sleep again.
She bolted upright suddenly, and looked around. There was a blond man by her this time.
"So, you're awake then, for once when I am in here too." It was that man, Erwin's, voice, and it had a vague hint of humor.
"Yeah, I am awake, and if I have overheard conversations correctly then you must be Erwin." She hoped she had gotten that right.
"So you don't recognize me then, after hearing from Moblit as to how you reacted to the name Levi I figured as much." He turned to the nurse, who was silently sitting in the corner. "I am sure that you can mark Miss Zoe down as having amnesia."
"Amnesia?" Hanji tilted her head. It was not the first time she had heard that word, but she didn't realize she had it.
He turned back to her. "Yes, it has been a total of 10 days, and considering the fact that you do not recognize anyone, or the name Levi, I can be sure that you have amnesia, Hanji. And unless you remember what happened on that last mission outside the walls, during which you and Levi split from the main force to explore a side region, we will not know what happened during that mission, nor what became of Captain Levi."
"Who was this Captain Levi to me then? Must have been someone I was close to, and a strong soldier, if we were allowed to go exploring on our own by whoever the commander is."
"I am the commander currently, Commander Erwin. And yes, you two were close, though I am hoping that your memory comes back soon or I will tell you the circumstances of your relationship with Captain Levi, whom I can only assume is deceased at this point in time." He had a mask on, a mask concealing feelings, she could tell. This Levi figure must have been important to him too.
Before she could ponder this too long she yawned.
"Get some more rest Hanji, you are still in recovery, and if you are given enough time to heal chances are you might remember something. I will return later, when I have time." He turned and exited the room, leaving me with no choice but to sleep.

Ghosts can lurk, they can observe the world as it is, see what is happening to their loved ones. Ghosts cannot interact with the living world however, and must suffer the pains of watching if they choose to stay behind.
