"Hello, my name is Allen Walker."

"Hello Allen, nice to meet ya."

"Che. I'll only remember your name if you survive, Moyashi."

"I hope we have missions together, Allen."

"Yeah, whatever. Take care of this paperwork."

The Black Order went on missions as usual, but this time with a new member. He joined just after the wall has been breached, and went by the name of Allen Walker.

The paperwork that Cross had given him on Allen's first day had actually been records of his debt. Allen does his best not to think about it. It was thrust at him as his job to pay off all of Cross Marian's debt. He had to deal with that before he got any actual missions.

Year 847, Black Order HQ

Today, they were going to recruit new soldiers, and the Black Order was going to watch. Though, right now, it was still morning, not much longer before the military line-up.

Allen awoke with a start. Whatever he was dreaming about had disturbed him greatly. Yet, he couldn't remember his dream. Also, his cheeks felt wet when he rubbed his eyes awake. 'Why am I crying…?' Allen thought, unceremoniously wiping away his tears.

After getting himself ready and eating a ration of breakfast, he met with Lenalee, Lavi, and Kanda. "Where's Cross?" Allen asked while they were walking through the dark hall.

"Asleep." Lavi answered. "His job is more of a… assign, and be bossy. You know. He doesn't have to go to these military line-ups."

Allen sighed. "Why are we going, then?"

"Allen, we're going to see if there are any troops like us." Lenalee explained. "Any who are proven as accommodators or any sort of potential. We won't be part of the line-up, don't worry."

"How come we are dressed like them, then?"

Lavi grinned. "Well, you see, while we're observing from a cliff, you are going to be in the line-up, experiencing things first hand."

"Why me?" Allen groaned.

"Because you are the newbie." Lavi avoided a smack from Allen. "Also, you are about the same age as all the trainees here. It'll be more believable."

Allen puffed his cheeks out in annoyance. "We'll be observing from the shadows." Lenalee whispered. "If something goes wrong, we'll be there."

Allen nodded quickly. "Che. You are so annoying, Moyashi."

"It's Allen!" He yelled.

"Shut up!"

"I won't listen to you!"

Both of them received a kick in the back of their heads. "BEHAVE!"

Allen stood nervously in the military line-up. He knew where the others were in the shadows, and every now and then he would glance in their direction. The commander had given his speech, and was now walking down the line-up, yelling at poor unfortunate souls.
Allen was so lost in thought that he hadn't noticed the commander towering over him, staring at him with intense eyes. "What are you doing here, you freak?"

Allen winced. "Um… Er…. I…"

"Now listen!" He yelled. "You salute first, then speak, you brat!"

Allen knew there were many eyes on the back of his head. The boy saluted, and announced, "I'm Allen Walker, sir. From Shiganshina." Allen held his breath.

"You're name is not Allen Walker! It is bean sprout! Now listen bean sprout, wipe that stupid expression of that face, and pay more attention. I'm not sure if you were there that day, but since you've got that stupid innocent look on all the time, it's hard to fucking tell!"

"Yes, sir." Allen said half-heartedly.

"What? I can't hear you!"

"YES SIR!" Allen cried, voice wavering. The commander stood for a moment, and moved on to another recruit. Allen let out his breath, having no idea that he held it the entire time.
He glanced around the crowd, catching a whiff of something delicious. It smelled like potato. Then, he spotted a red-head, nervously eating a steaming potato. Allen stared, his stomach grumbled. This girl was either crazy or she had a death wish.

The crew in the shadows couldn't believe what had just happened. Hadn't Cross remembered to tell the commander about their situation? Now he was yelling at Allen, almost the same way Cross does sometimes. "We have to talk to him later." Lenalee stated, noticing the tense atmosphere.

"It was fine when he was yelling at others… but Allen..." Lavi shook his head. "Was he there that day? I can never tell."

Kanda looked a little amused. "What's with you?" Lenalee asked.

"The commander called him Moyashi."

Lenalee smacked him.

"Why is that girl eating a potato?" Lavi asked.

"What?" The other two asked in sync.

"The salute signals that you offer your heart to mankind's fight." The commander held up a boy by his skull. "You got your heart on the left side of your body, freak?"

That was when the commander noticed the red-head eating the steaming potato. Everyone in the line-up stared along with the commander. "What the fuck are you doing?" The girl looked left, to right, to see if he was talking to someone else or not. Her eyes widened in realization that he was talking to her, and next thing she knew he was yelling at the top of his lungs, up in her personal space. "I'm talking to you! Who the fuck do you think you are?"

The girl then swallowed her food, and saluted, with potato in fist. "Sasha Brous, Sir! I'm from the southern Wall Rose village of Dauper, sir!"

The commander loomed over her. "Sasha Brous. What is that thing in your right hand?" He asked ominously.

"A boiled potato, sir." Sasha answered. "I saw it in the kitchen and it looked delicious."
Allen stared. This girl was crazy.

"So… you stole it? Why? Why would you choose to eat it now?"

"Potatoes are much more delicious when they're hot." Sasha explained. "I thought I should act swiftly."

"Nope, I still don't get it. Why would you eat a potato?"

Sasha looked confused. "You seriously don't know why human beings eat potatoes?"
Allen was about to fall over. He shouldn't though. He really shouldn't.

Two years of intensive training passed. Allen was doing well with the 3dmg, almost as well as Mikasa. The commander thought so, as he walked out in front of military line-up on yet another sunny day.

He scanned the crowd with brooding eyes. Nearly everyone was here. "Hey, listen up!" He yelled, immediately everyone saluted and stood tall. "Has anyone seen the bean sprout recently? Or did the brat bail on training?"

"Sir!" It was Jean. "He disappeared last night, sir!"

"Where the hell did he go?" The commander asked. "Do you know where he went?"

"No sir!"

The commander closed his eyes, trying to remember something. A man with red hair…. "Shit." He recalled. He completely forgot that the brat was on a mission. He even gave him a rite of passage and everything. The commander flushed. "Whatever! We're doing training without him."

That night, Eren, Mikasa, and Armin sat in the dining hall. Eren glanced at the corner where Allen would've been sitting. "I wonder where he went off to." Armin said, speaking Eren's thoughts. "I kind of wish I got to know him better."

"He must've run away." Eren shrugged. "He was doing so well though." Mikasa just ate her food, listening to the two which were talking about Allen.

"He was pretty skilled." Mikasa commented. "Where… did he go?"
