Okay, so I made an oopsie. Hehehe. There's only one day left until the red room. Sorry for the mess up. I might go back later and fix the numbers, but I want to finish all the way to the red room first. Thank you for understanding! So, to clarify:

1* Day Until The Red Room

≿━━━━༺❀༻━━━━≾

Levi waited in the parking lot, scanning the swarms of students for Eren. He glanced at the clock on his phone. 

"It's Wednesday." He sighed. "Three people and only one day left – four if you count Hange. We've wasted time."

"What do you mean?" Armin asked timidly. 

Levi brushed him off and continued looking. His concentration was cut off by the school bell, signaling for students to go to class. Levi growled under his breath and left for class. Armin stumbled behind him like a lost puppy, silently thinking to himself. 

The blond had been anxious all night to the point he couldn't sleep. He was running on thirty minutes of sleep and three cups of coffee. Though he was somewhat hopeful, there was a dark thought at the back of his mind. 

"Levi?" Armin called out, making Levi stop and look back with an empty stare. He hadn't gotten much sleep either. "Do you think Eren's okay?"

The raven fully turned to face him, coldly snorting, "What are you on about?"

Armin dipped his head and surmised, "Eren lost so much blood, and he didn't show up to school." His eyes started to brim with tears. "W-What if Hange wasn't able to help him? W-What if Eren's-"

"Shut up!" Levi exploded, grabbing Armin's collar and yanking it in the air. "Don't you dare say anything like that again, do you understand me?"

Armin wheezed out, "Okay! Okay! Yes, sir!"

Levi let go of the teen's shirt, nearly trembling at the thought of losing Eren. He reached in his pocket and pulled out a pack of cigarettes, lighting one and taking a long drag. The gray smoke spiraled into the air and filled the area with a foul smell of cannabis.

Levi was shaking in his boots at the thought of all Hange was putting into Eren's head. He felt all of his work go down the drain, but that was going to stop him. It wasn't a fact of 'If I can't have him, no one can'. Levi was going to have him, one way or another. 

After Armin went to his class, Levi snuck to the library to what was once his and Eren's hidden corner. He pulled out the list and made some changes with a red pen.

"How the hell can I pull this off?" mumble Levi as he read over the names

"How the hell can I pull this off?" mumble Levi as he read over the names.

A whisper caught the raven's attention. He pocketed his list and crept over to the voices. Reiner and Bertholdt were skipping class, nonchalantly chatting away. Levi eavesdropped quietly once Jean's name came into the conversation.

"Yeah, he just checked out of the hospital this morning," Reiner informed, keeping his voice hushed so the librarian didn't catch them. "It was against the doctor's recommendation, but he left anyway for some reason."

Bertholdt shrugged, "He's tough, I guess. Did you hear about the party?"

Levi felt a sinister smirk form on his features at the mention of a party. He carefully pulled out his list and pen.

As Reiner shook his head, the other explained, "Yeah, Marco had been planning ever since Jean and Eren made up. Kinda like a 'Welcome Back' kind of thing and a thank you to Eren."

"Don't you mean Eren and Levi?"

Bertholdt paused before continuing, "Actually, Jean and Levi are still at each other's neck. When I was texting him earlier, he made it clear that Levi or Armin was not to show up."

"Armin too? I thought that was Eren's best friend!" Reiner gasped, raising his brows. Bertholdt quickly hushed him and slightly ducked from view from the librarian.

"I don't know what's going on, okay?" He exasperated. "All I know is that it's at some abandoned building just outside of the county line. It was moved up to tomorrow since Jean got out today, and it starts at around six – lasts till morning."

Levi wrote the time and place on the back of his list. He tucked the pen and paper back into his pocket, but he didn't sneak away just yet.

Bertholdt added on, "I sure as hell am going! Hange's supplying it, which means I'm going to be Ubering there and back."

They chuckled mischievously and rambled on about who was going to be there and about useless gossip. Levi tried to take some mental notes on the party until the second-period bell rang. The pair of teens gathered their belongings and started to leave.

"Hey, have you seen Connie recently? He didn't show up today." Reiner asked.

Bertholdt shrugged, "Last I saw, he was talking with Hange. Only God knows where he is now with that girl."

They disappeared out the front entrance of the library, just barely escaping the camera and the librarian. Levi shook his head and muttered, "Too easy."

He returned to his corner and texted Armin, ordering him to meet him in the computer lab ASAP. Levi didn't have Hange to cover up his tracks anymore, but he had a replacement in training. Not to mention, he still had Hange's shortcut flash drives. However, Armin had to find out Levi's dark habit for his plan to work, which was probably going to take a minute for the timid kid to come to terms with.

Armin almost immediately responded, saying he would be right there, easing Levi's nerves a bit. The blond kid was tired of being the prey, so Levi would use that anger to build a useful minion – the same way he did to Erwin.

"You wanna party, Hange?" Levi gibed, grabbing his backpack. "Let's fucking party."
