Krista Lenz.
How she had never heard of this girl was beyond her, as she had quite the intel on all the important people living in this damn place from back when she was the highest rank assassin. It was part of her job, having to know anyone who was worthy of a second glance. But this Krista Lenz...she had never heard of the girl. And the fact that the Order of the Walls was keeping an eye on this girl and protecting her in their own way...
How she was the key to finding all the answers, as Pastor Nick had stated, they were soon about to find out as they rode over to where she was said to be stationed. Everything had gone to shit, where Krista and other cadets of the 104th were at. A swarm of titans had appeared out of nowhere as if summoned out of pure air. They had no time to waste, if the news were not exaggerating, no time to waste at all before it was too late. Miche was there with them, along with other extremely talented soldiers like himself so they would not be in much trouble. Or at least that is what Violet hoped for. 

Before they had left, Levi had held her back for a little bit, grabbing her by her wrist as he let the other pass by them. It was only until it was just them two and the emptiness of the room did he let go of her wrist and made her face him. "Come back to me." He wasted no time in getting the words that he wanted to say out of his mouth, although his heart was racing from the sheer nerves he was getting from being so gods damn bold. He would've never done this before, would've never made anyone promise him that they would come back to him because he knew better that promises like that were impossible to keep, especially if death was already knocking at their door. But he felt an overwhelming urge to do it with her, to ask Violet Grey to keep that promise to him. She kept her promises, would go to whatever end to fulfil them, so it was reassuring --so reassuring to him--- to know that if she promised it, then she would come back alive. "Promise me, Grey." It was so out of character of him, so so not him. But he just had to hear it, had to know that everything will be alright since he was not going to be there with her.
A little smile stretched her lips, her eyes taking a warmness he liked to see. "I promise, Levi. I will do whatever I have to do to come back." And that was all he needed to hear, all he needed to know that she was coming back.

It had warmed her heart that Levi had made her promise that she would come back, come back to him. She had felt very giddy, a stupid smile taking over her face like a hormonal teenager and it baffled her immensely how this man could cause such reactions out of her that she had never experienced before. The power Levi Ackerman had over her...she was in some deep shit.
But it was not time to be smiling over how her heart felt when she was around him because as they approached the tower where the cadets of the 104th were stationed, instead of seeing it standing, the stone building had crumbled to pieces. And there indeed was the swarm of titans they had described.
Violet wasted no time and turn to Julian, the two getting off their horses and switched over to their gears, flying as fast as they could to save whatever was left. They took the lead, the rest of the cadets that had come with following behind. Violet approached the first titan that was close to her reach and brought it down without thinking twice. It fell on the crumbled tower as Violet moved on to the next, twisting her body to gain some speed and plunged her sword on the back of the titan's neck, dragging it out to the other side, claiming its life.
Her eyes searched for the cadets, and for anybody that showed no sign of being alive. Fortunately, she was yet to spot the latter. She spotted the kids together out of harms reach as the last titan was brought down and flew over to them. Her feet landed on the ground and walked the remaining steps over to them, her eyes flying to each of their bodies for any sign of harm as she put her blades away. She let out a breath of relief as she saw that everyone was okay, their body language not showing pain. She felt Julian land beside her as she said, "What the fuck happened here?"
