DisclaimerXx Naruto and attack on titan do not belong to me
Naruto
Her hands clenched into fists, nails drawing blood, leaving crescent moon indents upon her palms. She watched with numb fascination as the 104th training division stood before their new mentor, Keith Shadis, announcing to the world their dreams, aspirations and goals. They stood before the man with determination and pride (a wasted pride that would be gone within the week, she of all people knew) as they took their first steps into growing stronger.
Naruto ground her teeth together viciously and slammed her closed fist into the wall she had been previously leaning against. Her eyes did not stray from their focus, even as she remained stood in the shadows of one of the barracks, eyes locked, with vivid intensity, upon two figures stood next to each other. A boy and a girl, the boy obviously more apprehensive about the coming interrogation then the girl who was near motionless with a stoic mask plastered upon her face. They, like the many others around them were wearing the typical tan uniform of the new recruits.
Eventually the recruits began to trickle back toward the barracks, with the exception of one particular potato girl. Naruto pushed herself off of the wall she had been leaning against and turned back to her own housing. Her fists, however, were not released from their tight clenching, instead seeming to tighten.
Why did Mikasa have to do this? Naruto had entered the legion in order to protect her sister from afar. In order to secure her future. Mikasa was supposed to forget about her, Mikasa was supposed to move on and find someone make a life for herself within the walls. But no. That stupid child just had to enter the legion herself. That stupid child just had to put her life on the line when she could be happy.
But why? Why would Mikasa do this when she had always scorned the very ideals of the legion, unless.
A low growl was heard as Naruto came to her own conclusion. There could only be one reason, no one person.
Eren Jaeger.
That stupid brat had dragged Mikasa into his fucking pipe dream. Because that was what it was. Naruto remembered that even as a child the boy that had quickly become her sister's best friend had always dreamed of joining the scouting legion. Eren had held onto the belief that the scouting legion could change the very fate of those within the walls.
Normally Naruto would have admired these views, despite her realist nature, but because of his fucking ambitions Eren Jaeger had dragged her already damaged sister into war. And Naruto could not take that. All of her training, planning and preparation had been nullified because of that gods forsaken fucking brat.
Naruto slammed the door to her barracks shut behind her, knowing that all of her fellow female recruits were at the mess hall eating (she herself had lost her appetite) and slumped down onto her bed. Cursing at the bitter tears that fell from her glazed blue eye.
Why?
Why did Mikasa have to do this to her?
She just couldn't lose anyone else.
But now.
Was it all for naught?
Eren
Later on Mikasa would deny that she had been in any way obsessive. Because she was Mikasa, cool, calm and stoic Mikasa Ackerman. However, to the eyes of Eren, who had known her for as long as he had, Mikasa had most definitely been obsessive in her search for her sister. Every moment they had spent among the older recruits and outside of private classes Mikasa's eyes had been constantly combing faces and hair and eyes. No one else had really noticed, due to Mikasa's natural prodigious skills that kept people form looking to deeply into her character, but the dark haired girl had always been searching.
Not that she ever actually found anything.
Eren had watched with pity as Mikasa had seemed to sink in into herself, separating herself from even Armin (who was finally starting to notice something was wrong and getting worried) dark circles became a permanent fixture upon the Ackerman's face and sue spoke even less then before.
Until finally she saw Naruto.
Mikasa
Naruto had changed.
Physically not much, her hair was longer, a spiky blonde wave that reached her knees but was tied so it only came to her waist with smaller bangs at the front and a side fringe. She wore a plain black shirt and the customary uniform, that seemed to be perfectly immaculate upon her adopted sister. If possible her blue eye seemed even further glacial then before and it did not stray from where it was locked on Keith Shadis.
But the blonde seemed stronger and even more distanced from Mikasa them ever before. And the Ackerman hated that more then anything. She wanted her sister back. The girl who had smiled at her and comforted her and saved her.
It seemed the blonde had been chosen to give some sort of message to Mikasa's instructor and luckily this message had been received just before the end of the class.
Keith dismissed both Naruto and his class at the same time and Mikasa (much to the blatant surprise of all but Eren) wasted no time in running straight out of the classroom in pursuit of her sister.
"Naruto!"
Mikasa yelled, grabbing hold of the blue eyed girls' wrist, a mistake. In a matter of seconds Mikasa's back was suddenly acquainted with the floor as Naruto reacted to the sudden grab and smoothly flipped the asian straight over.
Naruto looked down at her sister with an unreadable eye, making Mikasa more then a little nervous, what now? Would Naruto (despite walking away from her that day) accept her back would it be the way it was before?
She just wanted her sister back.
Naruto walked away.
What?
Why?
Wait.
Wait.
"Wait!"
Mikasa was on her knees now (thankful that the corridor was completely empty) , desperation colouring her gaze a vivid red.
"Why? Why do you always do this? Why do you always walk away Naruto? Please I-I just want my big sister back!" There she had said it.
The figure in front of her stopped and turned, fringe casting her face into shadow,
"Your sister is dead. (no,no,no,no,) Naruto Ackerman is dead. (NO,NO,NO,NO,NO) my name is Naruto Ootsutsuki, you are nothing to me." Naruto turned fully to face mikasa, who seemed to be frozen in shock, cold silver-blue eyes looking down upon her filled with contempt,
"Remember Mikasa Ackerman, you are a soldier, grow up.
Or die"
Mikasa didn't respond, not even as Eren ran up next to her and literally growled at her sis-Naruto. Not even as the blonde strode away. Not even as Eren's arms curved around her form in support.
Why?
Eren
Anger burned through his blood. His gums actually bleeding from the pressure of his grinding teeth.
He couldn't believe that sweet, despite her general coldness, Naruto could do this to her beloved little sister.
That Naruto could so completely crush Mikasa.
He had came up behind Mikasa only to hear the blonde's harsh words,
" my name is Naruto Ootsutsuki, you are nothing to me."
"Remember Mikasa Ackerman, you are a soldier, grow up.
Or die"
He had shouted, yelled at Naruto, expressing the hatred that formed a pit within his gut. But she had remained expressionless, her eye never shifting from Mikasa's crumpled form. Before simply turning and leaving, hair trailing like spun gold behind her.
After he had simply crouched and gathered Mikasa's unprotesting body into his arms, offering what little comfort he could.
It wasn't much.
Mikasa
For a week after the confrontation Mikasa had moved through her drills and classes in a state of numbness. She hardly responded to Eren's worried queries and Armin's glances of confusion, spending most of her time simply trying to work out what exactly had happened.
The week after she was back to normal, in fact better then normal because she had come to a decision. She would not bother Naruto or search for her. However as soon as she was old enough and strong enough she would seek her sister out and get her answers.
She was an Ackerman.
And Ackermans did not give up.
There we go people, enjoy, should have another chapter soon. But warning, my mind hates me and sometimes refuses to give me ideas to write *anime tears*
Reviews please.
