Chapter 3-The plan
[Done editing]

I was pacing around the room like a woman who was waiting to see if she won lottery! "Phoe, you need to calm down." Cassidy spoke slowly. "Calm down. Calm down? Calm down?! Our parents and their friends are out there fighting a Titan army and you want me to calm down?!"

"S-sorry." Cassidy bowed her head down to apologize, I felt guilty for snapping at her like that."Cassidy, I'm sorry for yelling at you. It's just...so much stress...my mom's out there. Humanity's been in peace for at least 10 years now and...our parents and the others haven't fought in years." She nodded in agreement.

We all gathered around the table that the adults were at earlier and started discussing our plan. "Ok,ok, we sneak out pretending to be priests so they don't get suspicious, but aren't they gonna recognize us?" I ask. "Yeah, but they won't if we wear these." Liya pulls out some white capes with hoods on them. "What about the 3d gear? They're surely gonna see those." Cassidy asks. "That's where I come in, mom's got a wagon that we never use. She won't recognize it because it's all beat up. But we can still use it, the 3d gear can be hidden under the hay." She nods, understanding. When we get out there they'll see us, but we'll be fighting far enough away that we just look like other cadets. "Wouldn't Armin know that you 2 are his kids? With the blonde hair?"

"I'll cut my hair. I've always wanted to, so why not now? It's kinda long, I don't want it to be caught in the maneuvering gear." Cassidy offers. I look at everyone, and they mumble a 'yes'.

I take 8 gas tanks, four to use, an extra for each of us, and load them into the carriage along with the maneuvering gear. Quickly, I toss some hay over the gear so it looks natural enough. We all had our hoods on, no one will expect us. Let's just hope our parents don't see right through us.

The others climbed aboard while I hooked the clasps on to the reins of the horses. Click! The last one snapped in place and we started on our way to wall Maria. If this doesn't turn out well, we can take the extra gas tanks and go back to the safety of wall Rose. "You guys ready?" Liya nodded, Isaac murmured a soft 'yeah', and Cassidy gave me a thumbs up, grinning. Her hair was now as short as Mikasa's, but still a little curly. Liya had her hair up in a ponytail, and I had my hair up in a braid.

The horses started trotting through town, all of our hoods, up. I hope this works, if not? Then we're doomed. All of us. Liya is really good with handling her sword, I'm really experienced with my whip. Isaac's aim is flawless, Cassidy's swings with the battle axe is so fast. Why am I worrying? And we also have our 3dmg, just in case, though we don't use swords that much, we still know how to use it. Liya is our best chance with the gears swords.

There are two teams, Titan bait and Titan slayers. I am, of course, Titan bait, so is Isaac. Liya and Cassidy are going to be killing the titans, since they're the best with melee fighting. Me and Isaac are more experienced with ranged attack to slow them down, so Liya and Cassidy can make the final blow. Everything was going well when, "Where are you going?" I turned around to see.....Levi.
