AoT: The red thread of fate: A new world

Chapter 24: Paradise Island

(Hi guys! Just a few things I want to correct. In chapter 13 when Eren Yeager left everything, it had been eighteen years, and Mikasa Ackerman's kids are eighteen. Again math mistakes. And another I wanted to address, is that Annie is not the descendant of Annie Leonheart. Since I figured people would probably question that. Anyway enjoy the chapter!)

Chaos was spiralling out of control in the police station back in the USA, reports saying that the kid's families were taken, and that strange reports of people falling ill at the hand of some strange wine. But Levi was pacing back and forth at his home, worrying about Isabel, trying to dial her number but ended up declining or going straight to voice mail.

"Argh! Why did she leave during the night?! Now she's with those kids and in danger of whatever it is out there!"

"Calm down Levi! She'll be fine, you trained her after all, I'm sure she'll be fine." Petra called him but he shrugged her off making her tut in annoyance. "Levi you're being over exaggerating, Isabel isn't a child anymore, she's an adult and she can take care of herself." Petra said certainly, with Levi sighing heavily and resting his hands on his hips.

He peered at the photo frame of them and Isabel on a day at the beach. He smiled sadly at it, vaguely remembering when Isabel was trying to escape into the water and he'd go in to chase her. But also when she'd talk to random strangers, Levi would be on them instantly as her overprotective guard, as if Isabel was the president. Petra then wrapped her arms around him from behind and rested her chin on his shoulder.

"She'll be okay Levi... I know she will. You've just gotta have faith."

"... I'm trying Petra. I am... but I just, don't want to lose her."

"I know dear, I know. It'll all be okay in the end alright? Now go and do your job. Save people, save her." She told him kissing him on the cheek. Levi smiled softly and grabbed his cap and keys, heading out to his car and driving to the police station. When he got there it was all over the place. Phones ringing everywhere, chattering amongst stressed-out officers and papers escaping the grasp of folders.

Levi then took a deep breath and inhaled, letting out a demanding clamour of authority. "SILENCE!!! ... Thank you. Right, all of you people listen to me! I need you all to take immediate action, and shut down all companies manufacturing all alcohol and wines! Let's go people, we've got a job to do!" With one powerful boost of inspiration, they all got their act together and got organised.

"Levi sir! We've got the book you asked for. But I don't get it, captain? What does this book suppose to contain that'll help us?" A female officer asked him curiously, as Levi took it and saw the name, Armin Arlert on the bottom of the book. "Information with what we're facing. I ask that you dispatch a team to find the whereabouts of the kid's parents." Levi asked to which she nodded bring some people to accompany her, as Levi took the book and headed into his office.

His office was clunky and not well furnished to the current fashion of society. He sat down on his squeaky chair, and opened up the book and started to read through it all. After about thirty minutes of reading text about the land of Paradise Island, he stumbled across a long personal message that was written by the author himself but was tainted and faded. So he took that message and scanned it with his phone to see what the text translated into.

*The world wasn't what we thought it was. Conflict will never end between nations, cultures, animals, even us. I guess maybe I was wrong. I didn't know what Eren was going through, and I didn't get why he thought that the world was better off without them. But now I'm finally able to understand... whoever that person was, it wasn't my friend. Ever since I saw him when we rescued him in Marley, he was a totally different person, as if someone had replaced him and took over.
