Chapter 3
I do not own Attack On Titian or Inazuma Eleven
Enjoy!
3: Training.
It has been two years since he'd come to this planet.
Today was the day, he was going to go through what all new recruits for the Survey Corps go through.
The training.
Having to force his body into a uniform he clearly did not want to wear and stop himself from ripping it off in public.
He was now clad in the basic uniform of the Survey Corps.
He forced a smile on his face as he was led to the training ground of his enemies.
This was just perfect.
He was going to see what he was up against.
"Don't worry, I was nervous on my first day. " Eren said, mistaking his silence for nervousness.
" Yeah. Just do everything that your told to do and don't do anything to provoke the instructor" Misaka said, remembering their first experience all too well.
He just nodded his head, itching to just get this over with.
"Wish me, good luck." He said, faking false nervousness before joining the new recruits.
"Do you think, he's going to be alright?" Eren asked, seeing his friend go, he hated to admit it but Fideo looked like so delicate and breakable.
Could he even hold up a blade?
" Don't worry about it, something tells me. He's going to pass it with flying colors" Misaka said.
# In the training ground#
Keith Shadis looked down on the new recruits that he was supposed to whip into shape with his toughest, no back talk face on and it did just what he was hoping for.
The new recruits were scared shitless of him and they prayed he wouldn't pick on them.
Keith surveyed the new face before his eyes landed on a face that he was instructed to wiped into shape because of how valuable the new recruited was.
Fideo Ardena, a boy who can control Titians.
He couldn't believe it, when he was briefed and nobody could blame him with how he thought, someone was pulling his leg.
He heard Eren Jaeger had just recently noticed his ability to control Titian however he had no idea how to produce the same result on a conscious level but now in front of him was a boy who could not only control them but actually make the Titan ignore them.
Was called God in his book.
"Look at the babies, I have in front of me." He spat and they tried to not show their fear of him. "Your all too green behind the ears, you probably think this is no different than the pussy ass school you all just came from. Well, it's not! People die on a regular basis here!" and they all cowered except for one.
He took note of the boy with the angelic like face and chocolate brown eyes, the boy was trying his hardest to look forward as he stalked towards him.
"You" He sneered.
Yes me, do you want me to rip out those eyes of yours and heart because I will do that.
'Fideo' tried not to blink and replied. "Yes, sir" in a meek tone.
" What does it mean to be a soldier?" He said while the boy tensed before answering in calm and collective voice, despite having a hole burned through him by the instructor.
" To be a soldier of Survey Corps means to be ready to protect the people and be ready to laid down my life on the very likely chance I will not come back from beyond the wall" He said, not missing a heartbeat and Keith didn't show how impressed he was.
"Yes however in your case, you must your ability to protect your fellow soldiers and the people," Keith said.
Like hell, I will old man. I can smell the human blood on your hands. You may not realize it, yet but your no different than a human murder, how can you protect the people that you will no doubt murder in the future? At least I don't kill my own kind.
Was what he wished to say but instead he said "Yes, sir." and as usual, Keith want to intimidate the other candidates While Ghost drowned him out and counted the minutes, it would take for his instructor to shut the hell up.
Luckily it came soon and they were dismissed to their new living arrangements which was a dorm-like building while he also noticed that some recruits had already dropped out already which was just too pitiful to become farmers because the pressure was too much for them when it wasn't even nighttime yet.
# Dorms#
Ghost looked down at what passed for food, he was expected to eat, again with the chicken soup and bread, you would think, they would at least have some meat on the table.
He swore he saw, something swimming in the soup and pushed it aside, knowing he would get real food later.
" What, not good enough for pretty, boy over here?" One child sneered, seeing him push the food away, really no matter where he goes, there would always be idiot humans like this child.
" Why so quiet?" the same child sneered, obviously jealous of something.
"Hey, your Fideo Ardena, right? The one who lived outside the wall" One kid exclaimed and got astonished looks from the rest while the kid with short blond wavy hair glared at him.
"Wow, really?"
"What was it like?"
" How did you survive for so long?"
They just kept on yapping away.
God, it was like he was talking to a bunch of hyenas, with the way their mouths didn't stop and the high voices were bad enough as it was.
" Hey, guys. You scaring him, give the kid some space" Someone said and the sea of boys and girls parted like the red sea for whoever was coming towards him.
The kid that approached had black hair that reminded him of the geek at first sight with how clean cut he looked.
"It's Sayram"
"Your right"
"What's he doing here"
"Get going guys, there is nothing to see here" The newly dubbed Sayram said and he was obeyed without question, obviously this person was the boss around here and Ghost pretended to not making eye contact while in reality he was looking the boy up and down, measuring his strength.
"Hi, my name is Sayram with no last name. You're that special kid they brought from beyond the walls, right?" The now dubbed Sayram said. "We, newbie's have to look out for ourselves. So stick with me and you'll be just fine" laughing at the end and Ghost offered up a weak smile even though he really didn't want to.
# next morning#
"It's altitude test time! so listen up! There is no place for you here if you cannot perform! Fail and be shipped to the field!" Keith yelled and Ghost wished he would shut the hell up but found himself strapped into one of the balance contraption things.
He watched as many other were saddled in and most could not even stay upright and were currently upside down in wired angles.
"Ooh" someone said, looking at Ghost who was balancing perfectly and made it look as easy as breathing.
This brat. Keith thought, going up to Ghost and pulling one of the strings that held him in the air and let go.
Ghost suddenly found himself spinning and dizzy but he wasn't going to let something like this defeat him, he would be a laughing stock to his own kind.
He quickly regained his bearings through some impressive quick movements.
Dam, even I'm in impressed Keith thought, watching the kid in awe as he recover in record time. He walked up to Ghost who tensed, ready for anything and said. "With all the great pleasure, I say you made the cut! Train hard Cadet and protect all of human with your life"
He needed with a determined look while in his head he was rolling around hysterically at the very idea of fighting for the humans.
"All right! I passed!" He yelled to the heavens while others where shouting for him to get off the thing and let them for a go.
He just stuck out his tongue, successful irritating the rest before dropping to the ground and walking away, waiting for the rest to finish.
# 2 hours later#
Their numbers had reduced because of the balancing test and they were all now equipped with Three dimensional gear in front of a forest that thank, god had no 'Titans' currently living in it and they had managed to secure.
The ones who didn't make it were instructed to operate the machine that operated the fake Titans while the rest who did took the sky's.
Ghost had never felt so alive, travelling at such a speed and doing a few tricks to show off, much to the other annoyances, while he kept an eye on the instructor that no doubt was taking note on everything he did.
"Yo, Fideo!" A voice said and he turned around to see Sayram coming up next to him. "So you passed the test too, huh."
Suddenly a 'Titan' came into view and a certain look flickered in Sayram eyes before he shot right at it and pulled out his blades and sliced it in the 'neck'.
It wasn't deep enough.
Sayram, a boy who showed promise in the Acdemey and like many of the people here, he too is driven by an idealistic idea to protect the people, it shows within his movements. He's too clean. Keith thought, writing it down on his clip board.
"Touch luck, Sayram!" 'Fideo' shouted and did a one-sixty spin down on the fake Titan neck, which split it in half.
Holy, shit. What's up with the strength!?Was everyone thoughts, wondering about the brute strength packed into those thin arms.
Ghost ignored the looks he was getting and continued on, slices and cutting, the training Titians any way he know how, after all the training he's had in this form, it would shame his teachers if he preformed anything less.
" Holy, shit! Look at that guy go! What is he!" someone exclaimed seeing that Ghost was leaving a trail of destruction in his wake.
Ghost used his right hand only this time to crack a fake Titan in half.
Fideo Ardena, a kid who was brought from outside the walls, has shown amazing potential, so much so that I don't want to see what the kid is capable of when he's not using his power. The level of ability shown is not something a newbie shows, his good. Even terrifying to say the least. Looking forward to seeing what this kid would become in the future. Keith wrote down, knowing the report he would hand in, may make the kid a target for those who want to use someone like him but he had no choice.
# Sparring#
Ghost downed his third opponent as many looked at the weak looking kid that looked like he couldn't even hurt a fly in what appeared to be fear.
"Next" Keith said, having chosen to see who was the last person standing and so far Ghost was on a roll.
Sayram was the next to come up and got into the basic fighting stance while Ghost just for appearance got into one to.
"Begin" Keith said, and the outside soldiers who happened to pass by, stopped to watch knowing Sayram was quiet the martial arts.
Both Ghost and Sayram charged at each other, Sayram swung a fist.
Ghost blocked it with a finger.
Sayram eyes widened and so did many others.
"My turn" Ghost said, right behind Sayram.
When did he! Everyone thought.
Ghost applied some pressure on a certain point of Sayram neck and Sayram eyes rolled to the back of his head and he collapsed in Ghost arms.
Two people want to take the unconscious Sayram from him and put him at a safe distance.
"Next" He said and practically everyone tensed, what just happened was still painfully fresh in their minds.
In the end, many ended up unconscious on the floor while Ghost towered over them like a god and Keith was looking at the scene with disbelief.
"Congratulation your all new full bred members of the Survey Corps." Keith managed to get out, even though most of what was left of the recruits where all on a one way trip to 'Lala land'.
Never in all his years of being an instructor and active soldier had he even seen such a monster in front of his eyes.
He was given hope.
He was hopeful because he know with this kid added to their ranks, it would be a major turning point in the war against the Titians and mankind will no doubt prosper.
He was afraid, that if this kid ended up turning against them.
No doubt, countless people would die and this was what made Fideo Ardena an effective weapon for the government but it also made them fear the boy and if they can't gain the boy loyalty.
They would not hesitate to kill the boy before he could fully bloom or find some way to strip the boy of his free will.
For once, he was uncertain what the future would hold with this boy in their ranks.
Will this boy bring about salvation or will he bring about the destruction on mankind?
What was this uneasiness he was feeling?
Was something going to happen soon that would shake the foundation of life within the walls?
#Outside the training ground#
"So..." Eren trailed off, wondering if he made the cut or not.
"Isn't it obvious that the fact, that he standing here means he made it?" Misaka said and Eren looked away.
Ghost stopped in front of them and gave them a 'Totally aced it' look.
" That's great! We can now work together." Eren said, with joy. "And now you can teach me how to control those Titians and we could be a total badass team. Me, you and Misaka."
Ghost and Misaka gave him an amused look as they headed back to the house.
While Keith Shadis was heading to the office place to report in and for some reason, he was supposed to reported directly to the noble man that were beside the king himself.
He was under no delusions.
Those people were the worst kind of Bastards and what was worse, they governed all of humanity.
"Report" A fat nobleman said while the King was still sitting in his chair with that piercing look of his, nobody suspect that he was just sleeping.
Keith cleared his throat and purposely kept away from Fideo report just to see the annoyance on the nobles faces.
"Yes we get all of that! What about the boy! The boy with the power!" Another noble shouted and Keith was starting to think unpleasant thoughts about his superiors.
Keith held in irritation he felt and gave his assessment of the boy and watched the fat faces turned from awe to fear to finally greed, than quickly covered up.
Someone said those blessed words.
"You can go now."
Not wanting to seem eager, he tried to walk normally before going through the double doors and fast walked.
He couldn't stand the people in power.
#Inside the throne room#
"What do you think of the boy?" One nobleman asked.
"Well it's obvious the boy is more talented than we thought" another said.
"The boy has to be bound within these walls! It's not safe for him to be outside, left alone" another said, translation 'the boy should not stay out of the walls, out of our reach. The boy needs to be controlled' which all the nobleman were in agreement of.
"However this boy shows no ties to anyone here. We must find out this boy weakness and exploit it" Another said.
" Yes, this is after all for the good of mankind" getting nods of agreement.
Unaware that, they were on a fools quest.
Nobody controls Nero Ghost.
#Somewhere in the capital#
Levi Ackerman was dreaming but he know this was not one of his usual dreams, there was no killing Titans or seeing his mother die or even reliving the days when he was trained by Kenny the Ripper.
No, this was no ordinary dream, for one thing, everywhere he turned to, he could see nothing but darkness however he could see his hands and legs.
Where am I? He wondered, trying to see if there was any light that he could use to navigate through the darkness.
Suddenly as if, reading his mind, torches were light to reveal, he was in a room unlike he had ever seen before.
Floor made out a weird soft texture, a long table that didn't look at all worn out and had a completely smooth surface. The chair had this weird cushy softness feel to them and there was this weird squared device on the table that had the sign of 'G' on it.
This has got the be the most weirdest dream, I have ever had. Is this even a dream? He wondered, he didn't know what he was looking at but he thought this was a really advanced room, he had somehow found himself in.
"Do you like it?" A voice said and he immediately tensed to strike if needed but he gave nothing away on his face as he turned to the voice to find that the chair on the other side of the table, was not so empty anymore.
There was a figure dressed in black, it seemed like the shadows of the room bended to it's very whim and hid the face and because of how loose the cloak was he was unable to tell the gender, however he had his money on the male because of the figure voice.
"Don't just stand there, sit down and let's talk since well be meeting like this on quite a few occasions" The figure said in a monotone and Levi found himself in the chair opposite the figure.
" Who are you?" Levi asked, in his own monotone, eyeing the figure and ready to strike if the figure turns out to be a threat. How dare, this figure invade his dream, he could feel the figure grin from here.
"My name is Master Chaos and I will reveal the whole truth about this world, all good time."
And scene!
I bet you didn't expect, Ghost meeting Levi in his dreams! I pretty much know the ending of this part of the series with all the little bits in between however I have yet to plan out how to make the story lead in that direction.
I will not give anything away!
