Y/n's POV
'It's been a while since I last saw the city' I thought, looking at the horizon.' When will the day finally come, that I can walk freely without worrying that someone, might kill me...' I let out a frustrated sigh, then continue on hanging the white sheet fabric that I just washed.
'I don't really mind not going back though'I said again in my mind. I'm living in a remote village far away from the city, but even though I'm far from the civilization, still I'm contented in my life here, I'm safe. And living in this remote town is not that bad after all.
" Big Siiiis!Biiigg Siiis~! Sis! " I heard a familiar voice, and immediately makes me smile. Once I fix the sheets I'm hanging I quickly look at the direction of the person who is calling me, and finally when I saw him, the thought of the city faded away quickly.
"Samuel!" I called to him happily then he quickly run towards me. 'Damn that kid! even though he's still far away, his voice is loud as hell' I say in my mind, but even though that kid is like a walking siren he's one of the many reasons I don't feel alone in this town.
"Sammmyy~! I miss youuu~ " I lowered my self to level him, then I quickly hug him tight and kiss him on the cheeks.
"ehehe! Me too Big Sis! But please!stop hugging me so tight!!" He said. I look at him with confuse look but his smiling ear to ear.
"How can I? If I see a small bouncing pillow heading towards me!" I said then hugs him tight again and gives another kiss on the cheek. Gaahh!!!I didn't lie when I say he looks like a bouncing pillow hahaha.
"Hahaha stop it already haha" he said but he clearly wants me to hug him.He's still seven, her father got eaten by a titan when they broke through the wall. His mother was the only family he has left. So sometimes when his mother was heading to the city, she asked me if I could look after Samuel and I gladly accept her offer, that's why I'm very close to this kid. I stop hugging him and gives him a smirk.
"Huh then how about this you rascal!Haha" I said then start tickling him on the side while laughing. He won't stop laughing and he's reaction makes me laugh even more. Then I heard someone cough I look at the direction and there I saw him leaning on the wall smiling while looking at me and samuel.
"You're really fond at kids huh...Y/n" He said while walking to our direction.
"Oh! Big sis! It's Instructor!" he says while looking at my Uncle. ' Haha he really give him a name' you thought trying not to laugh. Samuel Saw me train all the time with him so he called him that.
'yeah yeah.' He mumbles and you chuckled.
"Sammy can you go inside first? There's a bread on the table, go eat that then washed the plate. Make sure its clean. Okay?" He look at me and smile while nodding then he ran inside my house.
" You really let the kid washed your dishes?" He asked, and I laugh shaking my head saying no. I already washed it earlier.
" So what brings you here Commander Erwin? " I said sarcastically while looking at him with a playful face.
"You know why I came here Y/n. Quit playing! you're not a child anymore-Even though I wish you still were' He said letting his voice lower in his last sentence almost like he's whispering but I heard him, after all I live here in this remote place for such a long time, even the sound of cricket is too much for me sometimes.
" Hey! Watch your mouth you old corn kernel! I'm only twenty four! " I said and stomp a fit.
"Oi! That hurt stupid!" He shouted back at me then give up and sigh.
" Really woman... Where can I drag you to a serious conversation?" I looked at him, examining his expression. I really wannna laugh! But now is not the time, He's still my uncle and I need to respect him.
" Ok ok. But do you really think its a good idea? Bringing me back to the city? I mean I'm living a peaceful life here already. No one's bothering me and I'm guessing it's gonna stay that way." I said to him with a serious tone. I really know its gonna stay that way, no one knows who I really am. And I know those pigs who wants to kill me doesn't know me nor am I still alive... Tch! So they're gonna find someone without even having a single clue if its alive or now peaceful sleeping six feet below the ground. What a hard working Mthrfckrs!" There's someone from the enemy's side... Who witnessed you escaping that day... I already took care of it.... But I guess the rumors really have wings. They now have a clue that you're still alive... It's only a matter of time until they find out where you are." He said while looking at the peaceful scenery. I'm speechless...' they know I'm alive, huh' I thought.
"But no one saw me, and I didn't even see them! So what if they go here, as if I'm gonna let them do something under my watch!" I blurted out to my Uncle but he just looks at me, just by looking, I get what he is saying. My eyes widened.' No fckn way... I said it again' tears started running down my cheeks..
" I hope you get what I'm trying to say, Y/n. Just like before... There's no other choice.... We, don't have any choice." He said while looking at the sun setting down.
I peek at the window of my house to see Sammy happily eating the bread. I smiled 'His such a bright kid' you said to yourself but then your smile faded away.
" If I leave this village, will that kid gonna be safe?" I said looking down.
"I hired some people surveiling this area, incase someone look suspicious, they're gonna report to me by sending an envoy. I'm gonna let them watch here in order to protect this village and report back to me every five hours." He said to me calmly. I laugh not because I'm relieved but because I can't think anything right now. ' Does he mean'.
" You're not sure right? Haha well... I can't really do anything about that you know?" Looking at him with a wide smile on my face. He looks at me seriously but its obvious that he's in shocked. I looked down again.
"In the end, I have to do that, Right? ... In order to avenged them." My face now has a cold expression, looking lifeless. I feel him walking towards me, then he hugs me. The hug, feels sad and hopeless.
" Y/n, we can prevent that from happening again... And I believe you know what I'm saying." He said to me, I smiled. His hug feels warm again.All my life he never pester me on moving back to the city, cause he knows I'm safe and at the same time he knows I'm enjoying my life here. He sense something is off and its nearly too late when he pointed a finger on it, just like today. But me, I always cause problem in my whole damn life. Always making poor decision...
But today its different, I'm not gonna choose the same path I chose when I was just a mere kid.
I broke from the hug and fixed myself. I looked at him, he smiles but still his looking at me seriously and nod, I nod back and he can sense determination in me.
"I always believe in your judgments, cause they're ending up being right, Commander." With full determination I didn't expect to say those words'But this is the perfect time' I said in your mind. " I'll follow your plan. Let's see how good is your judgments this time, dickhe-Ow!" He cut me off by smacking my head really damn hard!
"You should really learn how to Respeect!! Your!! Own!! Damn!! Uncle!!!" Damn! He is pissed. He growl those words while hitting me with a stick...'Where did he get those!' I say in my mind.
" Ow! Sor-Ouch! Hey! Sorry!" I said he stop and taking a deep breath. He then throw the stick on the ground. I smiled then salute at him. He looked at me like 'Tf?' I giggled at his reaction and he then just chuckled.Flashback

(Being a 10 year old brat)
.
I can't feel my legs anymore, I run while my uncle is riding his horse.
"Too slow! Move!" He shouted at me. I looked at him annoyed but when I met his gaze I felt something and I felt my sweat got cold. He's looks is too frightening.
I stop at running, looking down on the ground.
' What's the point of this.' you said to your self
"Why did you stop." He said with a cold tone. I don't know... Is he asking me?
" Why do you train me like I'm going outside the walls to kill those terrifying titans!" I shouted in annoyance while stomping my feet. He gets down on his horse but not letting go to the rein.
"You know why, right" he said, and with that, It hit me. Seeing my family getting assassinated with my own eyes.
" There are more scarier things inside these walls than being outside, Y/n. The moster inside the walls are far more cunning than you've ever imagined. So if you don't want to be eaten, then do something. Remember your parents words....Remember my sister's words" He said then again hop to his horse. My tears are keep dripping down on my face. Remembering my Mother's word'Don't let yourself die without doing anything to survive. So please stay alive, for me, for your father.'
"Alright... I won't let my parents death go in vain. I swear to make them pay... Every single one of them" And with that I start running again...
