Eren's P.O.V
Eren slipped back into camp, night had fallen the soft glow of the fire casted itself on his five friends
"When do you think Eren will be back?" Reiner's baritone voice spoke up
Annie gave a shrug "He might stay for a bit of food with Sasha."
"Or I am already here?" Eren spoke up as he stepped out of the trees, most of them jumped except Annie, she probably heard the brunet a couple of minutes before, she had very superb hearing. Which was very useful. "Its time to leave." Eren's voice was low and he cast looks over to the trees, like he expected horses or men to appear.
Annie was already standing, Bert and Reiner had begun to stand, but Ymir spoke out "Why do we have to leave?"
"Mikasa says the search party is getting close.""Why should trust your sister? She's a knight and is loyal to them." She spoke lowly, this wasn't the first time she had spoke out and it was getting on his nerves, she was starting to take his orders less and less, and Eren couldn't risk the damn fool making a scene and getting them all arrested.
"She is my sister." The teal eyes seemed to flash green in the low light as his anger rose.
"Not even your real sister, she took the vows before while you were away, who says she is leading them to us hm?" She rose a eyebrow"I say she isn't and you do best to remember your place Ymir, or that pretty blonde could get hurt." He watched in satisfaction as she scowled
"You wouldn't. You don't hurt innocents." Ymir rose to stand, her fist clenched. The others took a step back watching Eren to see what he do
"Your right Ymir I don't." Ymir relaxed a bit, but her expression was still guarded "But some of my contacts do, and they could get a small note and some money." He smirked at her, as he took steps to reach her, now only a fire was between them, Ymir's hand drifted to her small dagger.
"I know better Eren, your too good for that." Eren glared at her and pulled a arrow, nocking and shooting the arrow, close to her head. A gasp was heard from around them and Ymir stumbled back
" Draw your dagger Ymir and I won't just scratch you." He said dangerously, "I will not stand for this insolents, not from you. Remember you owe me for your life, and now your asking me to take the life that I saved away. I will not stand for you questioning me. What I say goes, if I say climb a tree you do it, and not pass it on to someone else." Eren moved around the fire "So, get your ass up and pack." He walked over to his sleeping bag, and packed up he heard the other do the same, it was complete silence, making Eren scoff. and he shoulders his pack
------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
They had actually head east this time, sometimes moving through the tress sometimes on the ground, when they stopped, it looked like Ymir would say something, but Eren would send her a glare and tighten his hold on his bow, it was a silver bow that matched the moonlight, this bow has never missed its mark, he acquired it in the middle east, through he didn't use it to train, just for fights.
They settled down about a fifty miles away from their last camp, through it would only be temporary, so, they stayed until Eren told them to move again.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Eren got up "Alright, Annie watch the camp, I'll be back." They were sitting around, they had stayed in the camp for two days, because he didn't deem it safe to venture.
"Where are you going?" Bertholdt spoke up, from his spot next to Reiner.
"To stretch my legs and arm, before I get lazy." He smiled a little, Ymir rose a bit, but Annie took the situation into her own hands, making Ymir sit back down. "Annie is in charge until I get back." If Eren had to admit, he would say that Annie was his second in command, he trust her the most.
"Be careful Eren, do not get caught." Annie's warning came as it always did
"I do not plan on it." He would smile and say. He grabbed his training bow and quiver, strapping it on his back. Eren left his scabbard by his pack, he clips his cloak around his neck and heads down a random path, making sure to mark his path, so he can find his way back.
The brunet heads down to a stream, so that he can rest after a small session but before he can even pick a target, a horse neigh interrupt him. The thief immediately moves back to the trees, walking softly the way he heard.
A horse was drinking from the stream, it was saddled "Where is your rider?" The teal eyed man questioned softly, his light eyes, glinting with gold in the sunlight, searched the area until they landed on the blonde sheriff, he reached back to pull an arrow, in no way was this man innocent. He could easily kill him from this distance, but the eyes his blue yes swept the area reminded him Armin, so Eren nocked an arrow and stepped out, his stance was guarded and the bow was raised to aim at the blonde giant "What are you doing her sheriff? Especially alone, don't you know thieves live here?" He glared at Smith "Where is the rest of your party?" The teal eyes swept around quickly, before returning to the sheriff, a scowl was on his face, as he remembered the role he hand in taking his land, he stood up for the men who took his lands.
Erwin looks elated as his lips curved into an immensely amused smile Ah? Oh my little robin, how you've grown from our first meeting." He smiles easily and steps forward, testing Eren's skills
Eren's scowl deepens at the taunt, he lets the arrow loose, letting fly by his head "Don't take another step." He says as he nocks another arrow "And I'm not your little what ever."
Erwin laughs lightly, airy and clear,-obviously unaphase, fascinated even. "Oh my, dangerous as well I see. Would you kill me without a second thought dear robin?" His voice is bittersweet, yet his sky blue irises remain calm and steady.
"Of course I would, your a reason my mother is no longer here, and I no longer hold any lands." He drew his arm more taunt "Now answer me, Smith, what are you doing here?" He kept his tone low, his eyes still flitting about
