Norie put her hood on from the cape as she held the lantern out in front so she could see where she was going, Levi walked next to her as everyone was quiet since they don't know if something might pounce at any given moment.

She jumped when someone helped and their lantern fell, she quickly turned around but sighed. The scout had just tripped but he caught his fall, Levi turns to him and spoke up.

"Hey, you gotta light up the ground"

"Be careful"norie says

"Sorry"the guy says.

"We're not at the foot yet? It's almost dawn"Levi says turning to the man next to him

Norie held her lantern up for the guy to read of the paper, he says a quick thank you and scans it.

"Once we're over this mountain, Shiganshina's right there."

"Well, at least we're close."norie says

Levi nods his head and places a hand on the small of her back to motion her to continue walking.

She grabbed her horse and continued until someone yelled "Titan on the left! Everyone halt! Light up the area!"

Levi quickly pushed Norie behind him as norie held the lantern towards it, she cringed at it's presences as she took a closer look at it. It's weird seeing it resting and not running like a lunatic trying to use the bathroom after a long line.

"It's alright, he's fast asleep. This lad must not be one of those new types that moves at night."Hange says

"That's to bad, let him be"

Norie continues her walk as she felt the feeling of someone staring at her, she turned to see Levi's grey eyes. She raised and eyebrow and waved a hand in front of his face.

"Why are you staring?"she questions her husband

"Just keeping an eye out for you"he responds.

Norie stares at him and says "well...I don't think you have to be staring at me to look after me."

"I know, but I can't look away from you"

She chuckled and said "yes you can"

"I really can't"

"Why? Am I that hideous and you're regretting marrying me?"Norie says jokingly

"You're not hideous"he says

"What? I'm not hideous?"she asks again in a sarcastic tone

"Of course not"

"Well that's good to hear, maybe you don't need to stare at me so much then, because I'd find that awkward"

"Maybe I will, but only for a bit and then I'll look away"

She gave him a smile and said "good to hear"

"Why?"

"Because when you look at me I feel beautiful and happy and when you look away I get a strange feeling of emptiness"she says jokingly.

"Then I should keep looking at you"

She smiled lightly, shaking her head as she  turned around and continued her walk.

"I can see the foot! There's signs of trail!"

They walked until they peered over a hill and saw the wall of Shinganshina, the sun has also risen and brightened the whole area so they didn't have to use their lanterns anymore.

Which was a good thing but it also meant that Titans will soon be awaking from their slumber or getting up from their spots after sitting for so long, and they should be careful since it is their "breakfast" time.

Norie rode on her horse as she felt the cool breeze, she looked at the risen sun hopefully it would give her some warmth apart from her cape.

"Be on guard for Titans hiding in the shadows! Our operation begins now!"Erwin says

"All troops switch to ODM gear!"

Norie and Levi stood on top of their horses and pulled out their blades, they hooked their pinkys and squeezed, they let go and then shot their hooks and used their gas to fly up to the wall.

The mission seemed simple. But it's a matter of easier said then done. They'll have to seal the inner and outer gates with Erens Titan hardening ability. After that they'll have to kill each Titan that got left trapped in the walls

And overall, the enemies might be around so they'll have to keep their hoods up so they wouldn't target Eren right away, even though Norie said she didn't want a plan for her issue, Erwin made this plan so she would be safe as well.

Norie and Levi land on the wall and immediately started to sprint to their locations, norie looked at the town and her face soften.

She then noticed Eren, Mikasa and Armin standing and looking as well, but Levi looked at them as they passed by.

"Don't stop!"Levi said

"Head for the outer gate!"

"Be careful!"Norie says.

They see Hange and they stop as they tried to guard the gate until Eren can get here, Norie looked around and got confused, shouldn't their at least be 2 Titans?

"This is all to strange...not a single Titan in sight?"Hange questions.

"I was about to say"Norie says.

"But we have to keep going"Levi says

"Yeah, there's no reason to call it off"Hange says.

Hange shot a green flare up to the sky to signal everyone.

Soon a bunch of green flares shot up and it's was finally Eren's turn.

Norie would turn her head every minute out of anxiety, sure, she said that she could protect herself and she knows what Reiner and Bertolt are planning to do. But it's not like she has a big ass timer telling her when it will happen, so for the time being she'll have to rely on her attentiveness.

"Norie"

She turned to see Hange and Levi looking at her.

"We got you don't worry"Hange says.

"I swear I won't let anything happen to you"Levi says.

Norie stares at them and smiled lightly.

She then looked at Eren who she sees is zipping through the air and then used his gas to fly up and over the wall before he but his hand and a big yellow lighting bolt hit the ground in front of the gate.

The wind picked up and Norie held into her hood as she prayed that Eren would success this, after that they noticed the familiar blue light that made her smile.
