"A diversion from what?" asked a concerned Mikasa. Hearing more disturbances from out side

Eren went to the door and locked the bolt from inside "The attacking force. Wiping out the guards"

Mikasa laughed she could believe he was serious "It would take an army to beat them". She knew the strength here and figured it was impossible.

Eren smirked at that "well then guess it's a good thing I brought one. An army made of people who easily kill titans."

"You brought the corps?"

"I did." Answered a smug Eren "they should be finished soon"

Mikasa was shocked. Could what he's be saying be true could they really wipe out the guards. The baron would surely hire mercenaries. And his revenge would be merciless. "What about the baron?"

"I believe Levi wanted to deal with him personally"

Levi sliced the head of the last guard leaving only the Baron and himself. "You killed a member of my family, you kidnap another member of my family and force them to become your whore. Did you think there wouldn't be consequences?" before pointing the blade at his neck.

"Is that what you want? She's yours. I didn't even kidnap her I just paid for her!"

"Ok and what about the years of abuse? What about hiding her from me? What makes up for that? And don't pretend that the kidnapping wasn't your idea"

"What do you want then?"

"Your life Baron. Simply that." The he swung directly into the baron's neck severing his head.

The flare went off. Green. Mission success.

"It's over." Eren said darkly.

Mikasa was scared. No he had no confirmed reason to leave her alive. In fact as a potential witness it was beneficial to kill her "What will you do with me?"

"Levi wants me to bring you to him. "

"And after that?"

"Aki dies. And Mikasa gets her life back."

What kind of life could I have?

When Mikasa & Eren walked through the house Mikasa just wanted to be sick. Dead bodies of the baron's guard littered the house blood soaked the walls severed limbs everywhere. She had not liked most of them and all had had sex with her at one point so she couldn't deny she had hated them for that. But to see the condition that they had been left in was just disgusting. She was just relived none of the cleaning or cooking staff were allowed live on site. She couldn't have imagine seeing them dead. Some of them had been kind to her.

Individual members of the survey corps seemed to be everywhere but so far while blood covered all seemed to be alive. The attack must have been flawless. Mikasa supposed killing the titans meant their reflexes were beyond normal people. One girl seemed to be smiling at her but Mikasa didn't know how to react. She felt like she had killed these people herself. Then she came to the master's study. She saw the trail of blood and walked in.

"Commander. I've got her she's safe. Should I take her outside?"

"No send her in. She deserves to see. Wait outside."

She looked in the room and saw further devastation. The master's guards lay dead next to the wall. But the site of him was probably the most disturbing. He'd been sliced into pieces. Even his head had been taken.

"Does it make up for what happened to you?"

What response should I feel grateful? Ecstatic? Vengeful? All these people died because of me. She shook her head "No." In fact I'm horrified. Sure these men deserved death but now it was like she has caused those deaths.

Levi nodded "Now you may go outside."

Mikasa wanted to leave she really wanted to but she couldn't help it she had to say what she was thinking. "Tell me why first. You killed so many people. "

Levi shrugged "As the last surviving member of my family I owed you your freedom."

Mikasa couldn't believe it, All this bloodshed and that was the only reason. She happened to be related to this psychopath. "That's all?"

"Well Yeager had his reasons but that's his business."

So there's more to Eren than I thought. Does he have some kind of sick plan? "What happens now?"

"We'll look after you."

"So I'm your whore now?"

"Don't be ridiculous. We just killed all these people simply to free you. You won't be anyone's whore from now on. No-one in my family will suffer like that again"

An awkward moment of silence. "What happens now?"

"You'll be living with Hanji for the time being."

"What's a hanji?"

"That's me." A weird bespectacled woman seemed to be hugging her. "We're going to be great friends"

"Let's get you to my house. It's been so long since I had company." And the bizarre woman started dragging Mikasa away.

This left Levi alone in the room. He waited a moment until he knew the girls had left by looking at the dismembered bodies that surrounded the room.

"Yeager get in here now." Levi looked at the weapon he had fashioned the one that many referred to as his protégé. He had to know how far the brat had pushed it. He knew they both wanted Mikasa Ackerman safe but Eren had been in bed with a girl who had been raised as a whore. "So did you touch her?"

Eren was surprised by the question but looked Levi directly in the eye. He could tell Levi would kill him if he had but he knew lying was equally as much of a death sentence. "Only to what was necessary. I know it would have been wrong to take advantage."

Levi relaxed slight at this response "Good. Or else I'd have your head as well." And then full sheathed his blade. "Will you tell her?"

Eren shook his head. And looked down out of shame. "That I failed her? How could I? If she knew she'd hate me."

Levi shrugged. "Perhaps."

"Will I see her again?"

"We'll see." Levi responded in a non-comital way. "You are dismissed." he continued.

Eren went into a salute "Yes sir."
