make it back to me (Levi Ackerman)

vingt-neuf

After Norie had backed Mikasa off she looked at Levi who was still throwing kicks on Eren, making him bloody and bruised up.

She sighed and jumped over the railing, as soon as Levi was about to swing another kick he heard "Levi enough" in a stern voice.

His foot met erens head half way, Levi looks at his wife and she had a neutral face. He sighs and just places his foot on erens head to hold him down.

"This is a personal opinion, but I believe pain to be the best way to train someone.  What you need is to be trained like a dog, not a man. It's easier to kick you while you're kneeling too."Levi says.

Levi goes in for another kick but Norie grabs his knee in a firm grip.

"Wait"she only says.

"What is it?"he says.

"You wanna train him keep him alive, you'll beat him to the pulp"Norie says as she kneels down and takes out her handkerchief.

"Look up at me honey"She says.

Eren looked up and they both froze, Eren couldn't help admire her like a diamond in a case. Her hair was a dark as the night sky without stars, how is she so...pretty?

"Jiro...?"Norie whispered in shock.

Eren furrowed his eyebrows until Levi says "Norie... don't get fooled like I did. That's not him. Look at his eyes"

She looked into erens teal eyes and she knew that wasn't him so she closed her eyes and sighed

"Here"norie whispers and cleans his face.

Eren just stared but his trance was cut off by a voice

"Captain Norie back up it might be dangerous! What if he gets anger and turns into a Titan?"

"What are you saying? Aren't you going to dissect him?"Levi says and as soon Norie stood up he grabbed erens hair and pulled him up.

"When he turned into a Titan last time, he killed twenty other Titans before collapsing. If he's an enemy, his intelligence makes him a more formidable woe."

"Still no much for us of course"Levi says and turns to Norie.

Norie turned to look at Eren, he looked at her and then looked down.

"Can you both kill him?"

She shook her head, already done with this situation.

"Sir I have a proposal"Erwin says raising his hand.

"What is it?"

"The details of erens Titan powers remain uncertain.  Making it dangerous, thus I propose to have Captain Levi and Captain Norie take responsibility for Eren's control. And in embark with us in expeditions"

"With Eren in tow?"

"Yes sir"Erwin says

"Based on the expeditions result's, I'd like you to judge whether Eren can control his Titan powers and whether he's a boon or bane in humanity"

"Control Eren Yeager? Can you do it? Levi? Norie?"

Norie looks at her boots then at Levi.

"I'm certain I can kill him, the only problem is I doubt I can do any less"Levi explained.

"I guess that's were I have to step in"norie spoke out.

Everyone turned to her and she says "It been over 5 years since I used my abilities, I always believed that it would be of help when an issue like Eren would occur, if he won't obey..."

She trailed off and looked at Eren.

"I'll make him"she finishes as she wipes some blood off erens cheekbone.

Eren stared back as he felt his cheeks warm up at the feeling of Norie's cold thumb.

"Then my decision is made"

-------------------------------------

"I never thought you had it in you"Norie explained as they walk to the room where Eren and the others were.

"What?"Levi says.

"Kicking a minor, you're lucky they let that go"Norie says.

"He got a prequel of whats to come, it did him good"Levi responded.

She shook her head and opened the door to see Hange in there as well.

"That was really terrible, it hurts a little right?"Hange said cleaning up erens wounds.

"Yeah a little"

Eren then looked and saw Norie and Levi walk in and stand behind Hange.

"Um... captain Norie, thank you for the handkerchief. But sorry since it's all ruined now..."Eren says.

Norie smiled lightly and says "it's okay, theirs plenty more to come around"

Eren smiled back and then Levi mumbled "that was mine"

Norie turned to him and repeated "theirs plenty more to come around"

Levi crossed his arms and looked away.

"It's just a handkerchief Levi, I can get you a new one-But I gave you that one"

Norie sighed and says "alright...I'm sorry. I'll make it up to you. Just don't be gloomy"

Levi looks at her then looks around and they were focused on Eren, he grabbed her hand and kissed her knuckles.

"You better"he mumbled making her smile.

"You have my respect"Erwin said and sticks his arm out to Eren.

"I look forward to working with you"

Eren stared at him and then said "yes sir! Thank you!"

Norie came from behind and sat on Eren's right and says "Me too, but I'm serious about the obeying. I might look calm but I could be the opposite of that"

Eren looks at her orange like eyes and smiled, Levi taking notice so he slammed his hand on the couch and sat next to him.

Eren jumped making norie hold up his back to keep him from falling back and looked at him.

"hey Eren..."

"Yes sir?"

"Do you resent me?"

"N-no I understand it was necessary"

"That's good"

"But you took it way to far"Hange said.

Norie looked at her and she said "You lost a tooth"

She opened the fabric and their was a dried bloody tooth that came from erens mouth.

Norie remembered and turn to look at Levi, Levi just stared back and shrugged.

"And don't pick that up it's creepy"

"But this is an important sample!"

Norie sighed and Levi says "Eren it's still better then getting dissected by people like hange right?"

"I'm not like them, I wouldn't kill him, hey Eren, let me see inside your mouth"

"Hange"norie says closing her eyes in embarrassment.

Eren opened his mouth and Hange looked inside.

She gasped making everyone look at her.

"The tooth...it's grown back"
