LLL- What's wrong with me? I always say last chapter and never comply! I'm sorry

Hange- You don't own SNK/AOT. Don't sweat it. It happens.

LLL- *sniffle* Really?

Hange- No. *runs away*

Mikasa drags her feet through the small prison, pacing as she thinks of the plan that she, Levi, and Erwin schemed up. The trek to the basement needs to happen soon, but trivial things continue to delay it. Now that Wall Rose has been patched, the group must find a way to Wall Maria. Erwin thinks that the hole should be patched before they go to the basement where as Mikasa believes they shouldn't bother. Patching up the whole will take many men and the only thing that will do is cause more attention and lunch for the titans.

She looks over at Ymir, who's face is blank since the killing of Annie. The blood stains both the floor and the wall that she was chained to. Jean and Hange went to get rid of Annie's body, leaving Mikasa to keep watch on Ymir. Erwin went to go do something important involving the Military Police. Of course Hange won't dispose of Annie in her entirety, maybe keeping a finger.

One thing that relieves Mikasa is that Eren will not be going on the trek with them. It's one of the few things that she and Levi were actually able to agree on. He'd probably just be in the way if anything. Deep down she knows this isn't true but it's the only thing she can really convince herself of at the moment. She then looks at Ymir again. "Hey."

The shifter does look up. "What?"

"I feel like you're in better health to talk now. Why were you in the condition that we found you in?"

Ymir laughs at herself, amused that she's thinking back on the words that Annie said. "After I tell you you're just going to kill me, aren't you."

"It depends on my mood," Mikasa mumbles. "Now answer my question."

Ymir sighs in defeat. "I guess I'm in a lose lose situation. I joined Reiner off of instinct. I knew he was a titan and when he suddenly disappeared I got curious. I thought maybe he was on to something. So I went to find him and meet up."

"Where was he?"

"In the basement of a building not too far from where Eren had fallen."

"How'd you find him?"

"I could smell him. It's a titan thing."

"So you knew where he was the entire time we were looking. What happened?"

"I wanted to help him."

"And?" Mikasa's insides become anxious as she feels she's getting closer to the answer.

"He didn't need me."

Mikasa releases a sigh, annoyed that she is not getting the replies that she is looking for. "What does he want from Eren! Why is he after him?"

Ymir narrows her expression, irritated from Mikasa's confusion. The two glare at one another and the atmosphere is full of hatred and impatience, thickening their tension. "Why are you people so damn dense? Reiner was never after Eren. He's targeting Christa."

Mikasa's face contorts into confusion. "But..."

"Maybe you should take the time to listen to us instead of torturing us. Reiner was trying to unfreeze Annie to get her out of here before you killed her. Clearly his efforts were wasted because she's dead. I left to help Reiner. We shifters are the only ones who understand one another. Why do you think Eren was so attached to Annie?"

Mikasa pushes the thought of Eren out of her head. "So you went to help Reiner. What happened to make you lose both arms?"

Ymir takes a deep, nervous breath. "I thought he was after Eren. When I found out he wanted Christa I couldn't side with him. There was no way. He saw me as a threat. I didn't directly tell him but he knew. We smelled you guys when you crossed the wall. I tried to get away from him and he ripped off my arms and beat the hell out of me. He's really strong. Like a warrior. In a last ditch effort to save her, I wrote a warning for you guys because I was almost sure that I was going to die."

"Why do you want to save her?"

"Do I need a reason to want to save a person's life?"

Mikasa raises an eyebrow. "When it comes to you, yes."

"We're close friends. That's all."

Footsteps echo through the prison as someone walks down the stairs. They both look over to see Jean. Mikasa's cheeks turn red immediately and she swivels around, eyes wide. Her lack in control is obvious from the get go and he smiles. When reaching her, he wraps his arms around her in a back hug.

"Is something wrong?" He asks, his voice smooth as velvet. "I've been hearing that you don't look well. Is this true? Might I had gone too hard last night."

"Ugh," Ymir groans. "This is sick! I'm gone for three days and the whole scouting regiment is fucking each other."

"What?" Jean sends her a skeptical look.

"Don't act dumb! Mikasa smells like you. Levi smells like Eren. I'm not even going to get started on Erwin. You people are just sick."

"Ok?" Jean ignores her after that and turns his attention to Mikasa. "So, maybe tonight we can..."

"You can what?" Both Mikasa and Jean turn to the entrance where Levi stands. "Really Mikasa. You couldn't do better than a horse?" There's nothing Jean can really do about this comment other than pout and turn red. "So besides lose your virginity, have you accomplished anything useful?"

Mikasa rolls her eyes. She doesn't take what he says out of proportion. He's never been the nice type. Not to mention, he's her blood. "Ymir says that Reiner isn't after Eren. He's after Christa."

"Christa? The little one? Any idea why?"

"She didn't give that much information."

Levi glares at her and she raises an eyebrow. "Trust me, I'm touched you guys think so highly of me, but I don't know that much. I didn't interview Reiner. He only gave me bits and pieces."

"That was smart of him," Levi says. "He probably knew how weak you were and that you'd spill everything."

Being the position she's in, there's nothing she can say in return. He turns his head to Mikasa. "You shouldn't be so gullible. She could easily be lying to get us to let our guard down around Eren."

"What!?" Ymir is distraught and full of anger.

"Yeah. I guess you're right," Mikasa agrees. "I'm hungry. I'm leaving. Do you have any idea where Eren might be?"

"At the house eating something Potato Girl stole." She nods at him and starts to walk out, Jean at her hip. Just as her foot hits that first step Levi speaks again. "Eren's coming with us to Wall Maria."

She halts in her motions, just as Levi expected. "What."

"He said he's not staying back."

"Why didn't you fight him on it?"

"If we make him stay he's going to do something riskylike follow us or stow away."

Mikasa lets out a small giggle. "So you gave in and let him beat you. Levi, you're getting soft."

Levi's expression is narrow and he sighs deeply. "What's that supposed to mean?"

"Exactly what I said. I wouldn't be surprised if you couldn't take down a titan after dealing with Eren."

"I can take a titan down with my bare hands if I wanted."

Mikasa turns away from Jean and he becomes a little worried at the way they stand. It is almost as if they are challenging one another. "Ha. Lance Corporal, you couldn't even take me down barehanded."

"Is that a challenge? I have no moral against hitting monsters."

"And I have no moral against hitting a bitch because clearly that's what you are to Eren."

"Oh shit!" Jean steps back, his hand over his mouth at the bad burn.

"Fine. Now. Lets go," Levi says, walking past her up the stairs. "I'll show you who the bitch really is."

Mikasa walks out. Jean tries to get his composure together but he is too focused on how good this fight will be. "No." He says out loud, trying to be more mature. "No. I need to alert the others." In a panicked dash he leaves the prison. He runs into the house. There he sees everyone sitting down and eating meat and bread. They are laughing at something stupid that Connie said.

They see Jean's expression and raise a curious eyebrow. "Levi and Mikasa are about to fight!"

Eren stands up, the chair squeaking underneath him. "What!"

"They were exchanging witty words and then Mikasa called Levi Eren's bitch and now they're fighting." He is completely out of breath, trying to spit out the entire occurrence in one sentence.

Connie laughs. "Mikasa has some balls. This is about to be awesome." He leaps over a chair and runs out of the door.

Sasha hops off of the counter. "Hey! Wait for me." She chases after him. The group left in the kitchen area exchange curious glances, unsure if they should be trying to stop the fight or looking forward to it. It isn't long before Connie and Sasha return to the door.

Connie scratches the back of his shaved head. "Any idea where they might be?"

"No... All they did was..." Just as Jean is speaking the house shakes viciously.

"Around the back!" Sasha points out. With that everyone runs outside. Eren's thoughts are racing, trying to figure out just how the argument could have arisen. When they make it to the battling area there are holes in the ground and bad damage done to the house. Both Mikasa and Levi are shirtless and built with hard abs. They are breathing deeply and have their bodies shiny with sweat.

Levi lunges and takes a swing at Mikasa. She dodges it, hitting the floor and swinging her feet at his legs. He hops over her, flipping around her and kicking her in the back. She uses the force from the kick to flip back to her own feet. For a second of time she is off balanced and he takes advantage of it. He runs into another punch, straight to the face.

"LEVI!"

He pauses, his fist right in front of her, and looks back. Eren stands, his face full of dissatisfaction. Mikasa smiles at his laps in attention. She lifts her foot in the air and kicks him across the face. He hits the ground with brute force. The world spins for a few seconds and he looks around. Two Mikasa's stand over him triumphantly and the group looks at his crooked nose. He is full of anger when Eren runs to his aid. Before he can yell complaints at his lover, he sees Eren's face. It has worry written all over it. His green eyes study the scratches and bruises on Levi and his hands rub everywhere.

"evi.. Levi!"

The captain snaps out of his daze. "What?"

"Are you OK dammit!?"

He nods, or attempts to nod and his head throbs dangerously. He grabs it and Eren attempts to hold him close. Mikasa stands over the two, smiling. "See Levi. You've softened!"

He wants to stand up and beat the shit out of her but there are two problems. One, his head hurts like hell. Two, Eren touching his arm is making him feel in too good of a position. The half titan is nearly in his lap as he sits up the ground. They are close and Levi looks up at Mikasa. A devilish smirk spreads from ear to ear.

"Mikasa. It's OK if I'm softer." He leans up and kisses Eren. Levi's hand travels to the back of his neck and he starts using his tongue. The kiss is so intense, the spectators can see the deepness of their tongues. Levi pulls back, looking at Mikasa as she stands, breathing angrily and deeply. "I have Eren to play the strong part when I want."

She growls and marches away. Jean runs after her. Eren looks at him in the eye and puts their foreheads together with a smile. "What the hell happened with you two?" At those very words, Levi falls unconscious, the pain becoming overwhelming.

"Levi? Levi!" Hange and Armin run to his aid. Taking care not to shake him.

LLL- Really you guys... My writing is never ending.. I need to think of a stopping point eventually though. I just like writing too much to stop... hmmmm yep that's the problem. OH! just found out that the english voice actor for Eren voices Rin in Blue Exorcist. That's my favorite english dubbed anime. I was Hype!
