~Mikasa's POV~

"No." I answered, and looked down into my lap without any flinching movements.

"So, you were forced to go with him? Asides from that, how did he regain his human state?"

"I do not remember Commander Erwin. . .it's quite difficult for me at the moment. . . ."

There was a pause of quietness. I heard him pace around the small room for a bit. And then he spoke.

"Listen. I know you're recovering from. . . that uh 'episode' earlier, but I'm going to need you to really think here."

"What does it matter?" I asked, trying to quell my headache. I rested my hand onto my forehead and covered my face with an extra blanket to hide from the little amount of light.

"Huh. 'What does it matter' eh?" I remarked. I heard commander Erwin breathe in deeply and let out a seemingly frustrated sigh. But it sounded calm. "Listen Ackerman, I understand that you've been through a lot in this ordeal for over two weeks, but we need answers, the colossal--"

"Bertholdt." I said blatantly. "That's his name. Bertholdt."

"Uh well--er--Bertholdt has infiltrated your base camp whilst you were knocked out for the night from your seizure. . .and well we need answers. He's mysteriously disappeared once more, and quite frankly I'm not going to continue to beat around the bush here alright. He can and possibly will attack again, and I'm not going to sugar coat it at all nor wait for it to happen."

"I'm sorry that my medical situation and loss of memory isn't convenient to you at the moment: I've told you everything I know." I admitted. I groaned and whined a while from the agonising pain, having a seizure and near death experience sure hurts like a bitch.

Commander Erwin was quiet, I heard him talking to someone by the gate of my jail cell. I think the person on the other side gave him something? I was in too much migraine pain to even open my eyes even a smidge. I heard some metal clanking and my gate open and then close.

"Sit up Ackerman."

"Mmmhhh" I groaned, I didn't want to.

"At least tilt your head up so I can feed you some food and medicine."

"What kind of medicine?"

"It will make you sleep and regain energy, as for your memory I'm not so sure."

"Hm. Alright." I complied. I struggled to hoist myself up and used my pillow for back support. I didn't have to, but I opened my eyes. I squinted and blinked constantly and rubbed my eyes.

"Haha it's alright, I can't be that ugly."

"So-sorry, this headache is making it difficult for me to even process the words you're saying into a sentence. Let alone that, my eyes are on fire." I stuttered constantly.

"In that case, are you at least able to hold your hands out and drink?"

I couldn't even sit up. I struggled for a bit, trying to get the covers off and I could think about was going back to sleep. I felt like the throbbing headache was caused from a hammer constantly hitting me with every tap.
