We all reconvened inside the same warehouse where we accosted the attackers. Of all of us, Levi and I were the only ones to sustain any injuries, which is miraculous in of itself. Mikasa had helped me stitch up my leg and clean my wounds, which I was grateful for. Levi's forehead injury was just a scratch, as he said, though the blood made it look incredibly worse. Once I was cleaned up, I helped Levi clean his wounds at his request.
"I should go find Hange and Moblit," I said, tossing the dirty rag into a nearby pail. Levi raised his brow at me.
"If Erwin's only been detained, I should be able to see him with Hange. Let him know I made it back," I continued.
"I can't let you go," Levi replied.
"I'm not part of your squad, Levi," I argued, "If I could manage to see Erwin with Hange, I'll be able to pass along information regarding earlier too..."
Levi rolled his eyes slightly, obviously annoyed that we failed to keep Eren and Historia safe.
"Besides..." I trailed off, looking to the mysterious man he had tied up in the far corner of the room, "It looks like you have more business to attend to. I don't think I'll be much use if I stay here."
"Alright... if you're confident enough, then go. Don't get caught. That's an order," Levi's voice was stern, looking directly into my eyes. I couldn't help but give him a small smile in return, fighting the urge to give him a peck on the lips. I clearly remember the last time he gave me an order.
"Yes, sir," I smile, standing up with a slight wince.
I grabbed the bland cloak from earlier and swept it over my shoulders, drawing my hood before giving Levi one last nod. He tossed me a folded piece of paper with a swift flick of his wrist.
"Meyer..." Levi called, "I'm serious."
"I know," I replied, picking up the paper before taking off.

Sneaking my way back to Trost barracks wasn't too hard. Though evening had approached, the crowds were just as lively as the coronation celebration continued, making it easy to weave my way back.
I managed to sneak back into the dormitory's to get a quick change of clothes to not raise suspicion at my apparent injuries. I swallowed my fears as I entered mine and Petra's old room. It remained untouched, just the way we had left it a few months ago. I let out a quick sigh, ignoring her side of the room as I quickly changed into a new uniform.
They must be keeping Erwin on the higher floor where they usually keep detainees. Quietly and calmly I walked through the halls and up the stairs to the third floor where I saw Hange and Moblit idly standing near a window. Her eyes beamed when she saw me, rushing to meet me halfway.
"Emily!" She whispered loudly, "What happened? Tell me everything."
It sucked having to tell her that Eren and Historia were kidnapped, who we thought was behind the attack and how we lost members from her squad. I informed her of Levi's lead that's being captive currently and showed her my injuries in the process. I pulled out the note Levi had given me and handed it to her. She absorbed everything I said with eager nods and acknowledgements, taking the note and quickly scanning over it.
