Few years passed since Levi has joined the Scouts, things has been clam considering but Titans were still a major factor on their lives. Erwin new formation has been a hit and he was right, the Scouts have kept his formation going to save as many lives possible. Erwin has been recently promoted to Commander around the same time Levi is now a Captain and has his own squad.

Grim couldn't be prouder of the Scouts, things were running like a well oiled machine. Less letter she has to write to the families that lost their love ones. One major factor that's been bothering the Scouts in secret was Erwin hypothesis about people turning into Titans. Grim be surprise at her husband intelligence sometimes.

It happened randomly when the two was sitting at a park reading enjoying the rare time off together. Grim can tell something was on his mind when his eyes wasn't reading one of his favorite genre of books she recently brought for him as a small appreciation gift. She closed her own book giving him a stare down, "What's on your mind love?" She finally asked. 

Erwin closed his book so fast Grim had to silently laugh, "Can I run something pass you?" He ask. "Of course." Grim encourage him to continue, "How did Madam get Titans in the Underground?" Grim had to blink a few times at the sudden question, Erwin rarely ask about Madam or anything to do with the arena. Grim has been pretty tight lipped about it, reliving Madam was traumatic and something Grim want to forget forever but know she may never. "Where did that come from?" She ask back.

Erwin grab her hand placing it in his lap, "Grim, can you tell me about the arena. I know it's hard but, I just need to know a few details." Grim sigh, "What brought this on Erwin?" "Ever since Levi been here it's like i'm out of a loop." Grim was very surprise to hear Erwin feeling left out, "Erwin-" He raise his hand stopping her, "I can tell both of you share a certain bond or connection being from the Underground." He stare into his favorite eyes, "I don't really know that part of you." 

He cuff her face tracing the diagonal scar lightly, "I want to know that part, less about the Titan but more because it's part of you and your history. How were you able to survive for so long while in the care of Madam as well as fighting Titans?" Erwin lean kissing her with all the love he mustered. Resting his forehead against hers he sigh, Grim eyed him with a small smile. Taking a deep breath she begins, "Well, I'm not one hundred percent sure how she got them underground." Erwin nod, his attention fully on her.

"It was like one day she announce a special night and I saw my first Titan. It was a small one nothing to brag about. But it was still ugly, I was only maybe 8 or 9." Grim had a far away look on her face, "I don't know how I defeated it but it was like instincts kicked in and I went for the nape of the neck." Grim rub the back of her own neck, "I don't know how I knew it wasn't like anyone really knew how to kill a Titan. At least no one told me, from there Mother would bring Titans from time to time." Erwin brain started to calculate, "Did she bring them from the outside? Do you know?" He asked. Grim thought about it long and hard, "Not sure, when they come in they have a cloth over their heads. It was how a lot of her men brought them." 

Grim stare at him, she can literally see the gears turning. "Interesting, Titans don't function at night. They become docile and unresponsive when the sun go down." Erwin listed facts he learned from Hange one of their specialist on Titan knowledge. Grim nod at the obvious, "But still, it's not possible for someone to go above for a lengthy time period just to bring Titans Underground." Grim eyes widen as Erwin continue, "Erwin, what are you getting at?" She ask.

Erwin sigh, "If I tell you. You might think I'm crazy." He smiles. Grim chuckles, "Well you married me, so you must have some crazy." She tap his forehead, the couple sharing a laugh. "I believe marring you was the best decision of my entire life." Grim blush at his intense loving stare and smile, "Mine too." She shyly responded. "What I'm thinking is, what if Titans were once humans. Or maybe even something crazier. What if people can transform into them."
