It happened so fast.

I didn't even know what I was doing, just running around the rain like a maniac. I'm not gonna lie it made me more proficient and more agile, but of course I'm still the lazy ass Y/n.

We trained for two whole years, I gained a lot of muscles, and my weight became more and more normal throughout the years.

Nothing seems out of the ordinary, but as the witch put it, I only age until it's convenient.

So I'm still fifteen, even though years seems to have gone by. I'm not gonna pretend to understand the concept of being here as I was just trying my best to survive and carry out my mission.

To save him.

My thoughts were interrupted when Armin outran us all, leaving me, Marco, and Jean shocked and impressed.

"I can't believe we have to run a whole full mile arghhh!!!" Jean yelled, frustrated at himself.

Me and Marco just chuckled, patting his back and ran ahead of him.

"See you later Horse face!" I called out, snickering.

"Hey!"

*****

The three of us were panting, tired from running all day in the rain. It was perhaps quite relaxing knowing that I've made friends throughout the way, but still kept my distance and ignore the tragic fate that is coming to haunt us all.

"Y/n you okay?" Marco asked. Oh Marco...

I simply nodded, brushing off the negative thoughts the plague my mind.

"So, I haven't heard you talk about what branch you're trying to pursue.." He blurted out while handing me a bottle of water.

Now that I think about it, military police ain't a bad idea after all.

But as I put it, there more corrupt people inside that branch so maybe I'm considering the other two.

"I don't know Marco..Military Police seems fine, but I'm not really the 'serve the royalty' type of way...I'm more of a civilian from the sidelines..so maybe I'll chose either the Survey Corps or Garrison..if I can endure this training.." I replied, drinking the water that he gave me.

"It's your choice really...but I hope that we'll still be friends after graduating.." He trailed off, making me pinch his freckled cheeks.

"Of course we'll be friends! I won't forget you after all of this is over." I only beamed a smile at him, ignoring the growing guilt inside of me.

You cannot interfere...

I won't..

After our little chat we went back with our training.

Shadis is going to test us for our proficiency in killing Titans. Must be where he has those internal monologue..

"Man I hope I don't die trying to be cool. But no matter..plot armor won't let me die anyways." I mumbled as a maneuver around the trees hoping to find some titan dummies.

Y/n L/n

An exceptional soldier. Best for keeping her comrades calm and collected, but she lacks initiative and quick thinking...

I felt relieved when I saw a dummy, before preparing myself to slice it, another figure went ahead of me.

"Eren why are you so competitive..?!" I complained, but not enough for him to hear. I sliced it's nape, the dummy earning another cut, and it was deeper from the previous one.
