[y/n] walked down the street, whistling a merry tune as they went. It was a very suburban neighborhood, with lots of trees and plenty of forested areas around. As of right now you were on your way to a very special area, a place that only you knew about.

Looking around furtively, you ducked into the trees, running forwards to where the foliage would soon open up into a wide clearing...

As soon as you pushed past that last bush and the pine tree you would be there...

You stopped in shock. "What in the hell-?!"

A man with raven hair and a cropped undercut glowered at you. He was wearing a strange uniform, along with approximately another half dozen others wearing the same. Across the clearing, though, was another story entirely. Eight people stood there, all dressed entirely different, although they seemed to share some sense of each other as a team and a larger whole.

"Who is that?" a young man in that strange uniform with a blonde bowl cut asked, blue eyes curious but unafraid.

"I think," muttered the man with the undercut, "That they better question is who are they." he waved a hand in the vague direction of the people across the clearing. "They certainly seem like the bigger threat."

A short little kid opposite the strange uniform people puffed his chest out, thumb pointing towards himself. "Damn right I'm the bigger threat, because I'm going to surpass God! FEAR ME PEASANTS!" He was promptly smacked in the head with a book by a slender girl wearing pigtails.

"Would you stop it already, Black*Star? We have enough to worry about without your giant ego getting in the way."

The kid whirled on her. "Oh yeah, book brain? I'll show you just-"

"Would you both just cut it out already?" a boy with black hair (were those three white stripes on one side of his head? you thought in confusion, still utterly lost by what was happening around you).

Another boy nodded in approval. "Kid's right. You're all being totally un-awesome right now."

The blonde boy from earlier looked at them with interest, but was shoved to he side by a brunette woman in pigtails. "Who are they?" she inquired. "Are they a new type of Titan?"

Kid opened his mouth as if to speak, but was interrupted almost immediately by Black*Star. "Hell yes we are! We're Titan-strong!" He leaned backwards, laughing at his own joke, only to be stared at in irritation by everybody except for a young woman with black hair.

"C'mon Black*Star, can't we be friendly?"

Another young man in uniform shouldered his way past several of his comrades. "There's no being friendly if you're Titans!" he spat, eyes blazing. "They ate my mother, and I swore revenge long ago! You may not look like Titans, but if you are I'll kill you!" As he spoke a girl, obviously of Asian descent, laid a hand on his shoulder.

"Eren, don't provoke them."

The man from before, the ravenette with the undercut, nodded. "Mikasa's right. We don't know who they are, or how strong they might be."

The boy with blue hair opened his mouth again, only to be knocked on the head by the boy with white hair. He yawned, covering his pointed teeth with one hand. "That's better. He was getting really annoying."

The girl from before, the one with black hair, knelt by Black*Star's crumpled form. "Uh-oh, I hope he's alright. He does get ahead of himself sometimes."

Kid rolled his eyes. "He's not worth it, Tsubaki."

Tsubaki just smiled, but before she speak Eren jutted in.

"You still haven't told us who you are!" he snapped, his fists clenched tightly.

She looked at him curiously. "Isn't it obvious? We're students from the DWMA!"

Mikasa looked at the students like they were aliens from a far off planet. "What's that?"

You finally broke in. You were irritated, confused, and left in the dust. "Would somebody," you asked, voice dripping with sarcasm, "please tell me what in the hell is going on, how in the hell you're here, and why in the hell you're in a spot that I could have sworn nobody else knew about?"

Eren and Kid shrugged simultaneously.

"We're soldiers of the Survey Corps. We were out on expedition outside the walls, and then something happened. The ground shook, and suddenly we were here. Only some of us, though. There must be at least a couple dozen still out there," Eren explained "hopefully they made it back to Karanese District safely, because otherwise it'll mean the Titans have gotten them." His eyes narrowed at that, but he said nothing else.

"And we're students at the Death Weapon Meister Academy," Kid said, tapping his foot. (You had no idea what that was, but you weren't quite ready to interrupt him, especially if he was going to give you some answers). "Me, Black*Star, and Maka were on a mission with our weapons, and some strange portal opened up and brought us here. I'm thinking it was the work of a witch..."

"You'll help us, won't you?" said the ravenette (Levi, you realized, due to the fact that the brunette lady with the glasses had whispered something to him just now). "We'll need provisions, and a place to stay until we figure out how to get back."

"If you're helping them, would you mind helping us?" Tsubaki asked sweetly.

You groaned, staring up at the sky. "How on earth did I get myself into this."

"Then you will?" someone asked hopefully. You couldn't tell who, but not did you care. It seemed like there was no getting out of this one...

"Fine," you muttered. "But don't blame me if it's not what you want or expect."

This probably wouldn't work. Scratch that, it almost certainly wouldn't work. But some small spark of adventurous spirit blazed within you, and you couldn't help but smile a bit as you looked at the people around you. Who knew that an ordinary day could take such a strange turn?
