A story about a Survey Corps Soldier and her Captain's Love and War.
This story begins with students of Attack Junior High and them standing against Titans to actually fighting them in the battlefield and in the journey of life, the episode of Mikas...
Erwin and Levi kept an emergency meeting on their return. Everyone assembled.
Erwin began, "We are here to inform you all that we are under great threat.
According to our report given by Hanji, Christa and her comrades are stuck on a tower. We have to secure them and complete our army.
In your absence, we encountered a man who broke the boulder securing our walls and let Titans in meanwhile attempting to murder Captain Levi."
Everyone was shocked.
"It was due to Levi, Eren and Mikasa we have secured the walls again.
However problems ahead maybe difficult to tackle with. We need to be prepared for it."
Levi continued, "For that I'm dividing you all into two teams.
1st Squad will secure our forces and bring them back with Erwin and Hanji leading.
2nd Squad will stay here and train under my supervision."
"Squad list is on the notice board." Erwin informed.
"Check and prepare. We deploy tomorrow." Hanji completed.
Everyone said "Yes" in unison.
After being dismissed, everyone headed to check the list.
I stopped for Levi to check upon him, whether he is good or not.
"What!?" Eren exclaimed. "I and Armin are in 2nd Squad whereas Mikasa is in 1st!"
"And I'm with you!" Jean exclaimed.
"Hash! I am with Connie and Mikasa" Sasha sighed in relief.
I was as usual expressionless, waiting for Levi to come. Finally he came, in casual clothes, with a stick, to support him to walk, and bandage.
"Oi!" he called us, "Be prepared from tomorrow. Training and work, you all have to do both."
"What!? Training and Work? Both?" Eren screamed.
"Yes." Levi replied.
"And Mikasa, do your best to save our allies. We'll be needing them."
"Ay Captain." I replied with sincerity.
Next day arrived.
Erwin, Hanji and team left, along with me.
It took us around a week to follow their trails and reach the fort they were trapped. The fort was for King of that region before Titans showed up.
"There is the fort. They must be there!" Hanji cried. "Shit! We got company"
"Survey Corps! Shinzou Wo Sasageyo. Give your hearts and fight!" Erwin cried.
I saw Historia about to be eaten by a Titan. I grappled the nearest wall, aimed and charged. "Just in time" I said to myself.

"Mikasa?" Historia called.
"Yes." I replied.
She had tears in her eyes. They must have been through a lot this week.
"Woah! Mikasa you made it jus like Levi" Hanji exclaimed. My cheeks turned red. I cast that thought away and continued to slaughter Titans. Within few minutes, area was clear. We were exhausted.
"You all did well soldiers." Erwin said.
I saw Christa running somewhere. I followed her. Seeing me, Sasha, Connie, Hanji, Reiner followed. She went to near dying Ymir.
"Ymir! No you can't leave me!" Christa cried while screaming. "I haven't yet tell you my real name."
Ymir was smiling. "My name is... Historia Reiss" she told to Ymir which was audible even to us.
Hanji went behind Christa and kept a hand on her shoulder. She went away Christa. Look the smile on her face. She died happily. Christa started crying. Hanji pulled her into her embrace and rested her forehead on her head.
It was time we started to return to the Quarters. I, Christa, Hanji, Sasha, Connie, Reiner were together.
"Christa! May I ask you something?" Hanji asked.
"I know you all heard my name" Christa replied. "The thing is when I was little girl, there was a thug, Kenny The Ripper, he came to kill me. My father, in order to save me said my name is Christa Lenz. Since then I am trying to protect the identity which is not even my own."
"Did you say Kenny?" I asked.
"Yes, why?" she responded.
"Because we may face him soon." Sasha continued.
Then we told the whole story to her about attack of Titans during the ceremony, Levi being shot, Interrogation, then Squad 1, Squad 2.
"Finally, I am about to find the very person because of whom I was made to keep my identity secret." Christa grunted.
"I have a doubt" Reiner asked, "What shall we call you? Christa or Historia?"
"I too have same doubt" Connie said.
"For now call me Christa. When we eliminate all threats, and time is right, I'll reveal myself as Historia." Christa answered.
"Ok." Both Reiner and Connie responded.
Finally, we reached back after a day or two. After returning, I went straight up to Eren and Armin. They were resting. I went them and hugged them.
"Hey Mikasa! You returned?" Armin cried due to excitement.
"Eren, Armin, I'm back" I said with a smile on my face. "How are you both? Have Levi gave you extra work?"
"Kind of" Eren replied with a nervous smile.
"Hey Mikasa, you didn't notice me?" Jean asked with a nervous smile.
"Oh! Hey Jean" I said without any expression.
"Hey Mikasa, you should go and have rest now, you may be tired of your expedition." Armin adviced.
"I guess you are right." I replied. "Ok I'll leave then. See you all later" I left.
On my way to my room, I heard someone singing. It was a familiar voice yet it felt different. I guess I heard it somewhere?
I remembered my dream. It was the same song. Could it be? Levi? I followed the song to reach its source. I reached a room which had no tag, probably the store room.
"But its a dirty place, Levi will never come here" I said to myself.
I entered the room. There he was. Levi singing unconsciously. He sung well. Suddenly he recognised he was being watched. He stopped and turned.
"Ackerman? What are you doing here?" Levi asked me, stumbling while moving. He had a glass of beer in his hand and an almost empty beer bottle.
