Y/n's POV

I'm now partnered with Hoover, we're practicing our hand to hand combat skill today. I take it easy on him since he's just a kid and I clearly see that he's a softhearted boy, he might look tough on the outside but he's still just a kid.

“Hey Berty look at Reiner and Eren. They're really in to this” I said so that he can take a rest. We look at the two and they're really serious about this. Some of us don't take this drill seriously since its rarely use anyway, but I trained doing this ever since.
“ Now now, let's begin.” I said to bertoto he nodded and we take our stance. ‘ Aish this kid, his stance are good but if I kick him off he'll definitely gonna fall’ I attack him, but I totally avoiding to hit him or just making sure I'm totally in control of myself. He only dodge the attacks but then he show a me that he's going to attack back, I saw it coming but I just cover myself and ready to take the hit. He kicked me on the side, targeting my ribs, it hurts of course but I've trained since I'm just a mere kid so I learn managing it.

I caught his shin, he seemed surprised and just realized what I did. I look at him with a playfully smirk‘ not today, berty’. I grabbed his neck while still holding his shin, then I kicked his other foot and pull his neck to the ground making him fall, his landing impact was loud but I know its just the impact he'll just get a bruises by it that's why I don't worry so much. I stand there, to watch his reaction.

“ Ow! That hurts hehe..” He just said I smile and offer my arms to help him, he gladly accepted it now his removing the dust in his uniform.
“You're really skilled. No wonder why Jean don't want to partner up with you haha, I saw you always put him down.” He said jokingly I laugh. Well its not a real strike though but—ok.
“Well its just that, if you put your enemy on the ground. Its like their strength is falling too, that's why even if they try to get up— they're going to feel very weak. Well...That's the tactic I learned. ” I said to him well the tactic I learned when I was a kid.
“Ohh... That's why. You have a point though, when I get up I felt my body weakens, its like ten times being punched in the abdomen.” He said while looking up thinking his every move. ‘This guy is so tall I have to look up when talking to him’ I just nodded.
“ I'm glad you learned something, well I don't know if you can use that though, since you can't really use that to a titan.” He snapped back to reality and look at me and smile nervously.
“Yeah. Right hehe, I'm joining the scouts, Reiner too.” he said, he doesn't look nervous so I smiled.
“Do your best, ok?” I said and tap him by his shoulder he smiled at me.

We chatted for a moment when we heard horses footsteps coming to our direction, and there I saw my uncle and his men following him from behind. They're wearing a green cape with a wings printed on their back, and also in their uniforms.‘ So, this is Survey Corps of Scout Regiment huh.’ I look at my uncle, I see their are two people lining up with him. The man with a raven black hair, he's gaze were sending chills to everyones spine. And a woman with eye glasses, she's smiling widely to everybody but her smile looks dangerous. The instructor came forward, Erwin hop down in his horse and greeted the instructor, the two also hop down.‘ Woah! We're in the same height, He's a shorty!’I scoff and I think he saw me so I stand straight and look away.‘ Tch!’ I heard him saying.

“Commander! Haha It's good to see you!.” Said the woman.
“ Well you're still loud.” Instructor said and she just smiled widely. He, Instructor then look at the rest of us who is clueless on what's happening. I look at Erwin and he's looking back at me. I don't know what he is thinking. ‘Why are they here?’

“Listen! They're here to see if you are all qualified to join in any of the three regiments. These men as you can see are from Scouting Regiment, they are very well known as Survey Corps!.” Instructor shouted so all of us can hear. He pause for a second.
“ They're the one who keeps on sacrificing their selves for humanity.” He said, I saw his eyes, they're full of sadness in it. While saying those words he can't hide it.‘ Instructor...’ Then Erwin moves forward lining up with the Instructor. The instructor snapped back in his thoughts, and look straight at us.
