Blood dripped out of your wound as she skewed the knife around. You bit your lip harshly, swallowing the scream that sat in your throat. The three individuals just stared at you, waiting for your response.

"Why don't you just accept the deal" she said

"Cause I don't fucking want to" you spat

"Wrong answer"

She applied more pressure to the knife as she pushed it further into your thigh. Your eyes began to slightly water. You blinked them away not wanting to show the three signs of defeat.

"You should really accept, from what we see it's clear that your abilities to heal aren't as rapid as ours. How long has that been sitting there?"

He pointed at the large scar that ran straight down your chest. You sent him a glare as he only laughed.

"Don't worry you're not really my idea type"

"Answer the question or I'll give you scars you'll never recover from" the girl said coldly.

The two blondes that towered over you stared down at you with dark eyes, serious with their words. You blinked blankly at them, you weren't scared, you were more rather annoyed with their threats.

"It's been there for about 3 years now"

"And it hasn't completely healed?" said the quiet boy with dark hair who was leaning on the tree.

"It was a deep injury, but my body is full healed. Just the scar is what's left to be healed"

The boy with dark hair looks over to the blondes.

"Well that's a pro and con. Titans are known to heal quickly so they won't suspect her, but having the same injuries as the titan is extremely suspicious" 

"Listen, I don't know who the fuck you are and why you need the kid, but I don't care. Just let me go. I'm not part of your whole titan family bullshit."

The blonde boy squatted down in front of you.

"I bet you miss being around others don't you"

Your mouth didn't open, put your eyes responded for you.

He leaned next to your ear.

"You want people to accept you, not to fear you as a titan, a killer. You want to be celebrated don't you"

Your eyes casted down to the ground. It was what you wanted. You were tired of living out in the wild with mindless titans. You had been alone for so long, you died for company. You just wanted someone who understood you or at least just..someone, anyone.

You can feel another hot breathe next to your other ear as the girl squatted down and leaned in too.

"Where we come from, Our people know what we are. We're celebrated not feared. We're heroes in there eyes,  We're warriors"

Something flickered in your eyes as you heard her words enter your ears.

A Warrior? Celebrated, Not feared? Could it really be true? Last time you had seen your kind, they had tried to kill you, so you did the only thing you could do and that was to defend yourself. With no other choice, you killed some of them to escape towards safety.

"Wouldn't you want to be an honorary Warrior?"  whispered the blonde male

"Don't you want to come home with us?" whispered the girl

You look up to see a hand being held out to you. The boy with dark hair offered you a smile with it. It was the hand of acceptance.

"And I'll be satisfied there?" you said in a monotone voice, trying to hide away your interest

"Of course, you'll be paraded around for helping us save our home. You'll be part of our family"

Family.

You looked down at your wound.

Would someone in your family do this?

 Maybe it's because I haven't accepted the offer yet.

 I'm not family yet.

You looked back at the smiling boy. He seemed so sweet compared to the two blondes who sat on each side of you. He looked genuine, but how genuine could he really be if he had allowed his two companions to tackle you down and attack you with a knife after you had rejected their offer.

Obviously, because they were his family, he had to support them. 

I want that kind of support. I want a family. I want someone who cares for me.

A quiet sigh of defeat escaped your dry lips as you took his hand, accepting their deal.

He pulled you up making you wince in pain with the still injured thigh.

"Good Girl" said the blonde boy as he stood and ruffled your hair.

The girl stood and wiped your blood off her knife before she put it away. She walked up to you and held out her hand to you.

"Welcome to the family.."

"Y/N" you replied.

"Right Y/N, We'll I'm Annie. The blonde is Reiner and he is Bertholdt"

Family.

That word made you feel warm inside, almost bringing a smile to your face. You looked at her hand that was still stained with your blood. 

"I wouldn't really say it's nice to meet you with that introduction. But glad to be of service" 

You said finally taking her hand, you can feel your blood still warm as you made contact with it.

Reiner let out a laugh, "She's reminds me of you Annie, a bit more talkative but same attitude"

"Hey! Annie is one of kind! Don't compare her to anyone" fought Bertholdt.

You looked over at Bertholdt, his cheeks were evidently red. It was clear he felt some sort of attraction towards the blonde female.

"Thank you Bertholdt, but I can fight my own battles" the monotone voice replied behind you.

She walked over to Reiner and in a flash had him falling on his back. He let out a groan of pain.

"Alright Mercy! Mercy!" he groaned out.

Your lip curled up a bit in amusement at the scene in front of you. Annie continued to bend Reiner like a pretzel as Bertholdt pleaded her softly to stop. 

You crossed your arms as you began to go out into thought.

So what exactly is the plan? Do they even have one?

"If you're wandering what's the plan, don't worry about it. We have it all figured it out. Of course, we'll have to set it back a bit since we have to train you and make sure you catch up" said Reiner

"Right" you nodded

"And about those green cloaked people you mentioned earlier..." said Annie approaching you.

She held out her hand out. You looked down and your eyes widen. There in her hand sat a green cloak you recognized from long before. It had a symbol of what looked like bird wings. 

"You'll be seeing them soon"
