"Why, sky, why?!" Furlan dramatically kneeled and raised his hands, questioning the sky above why it was suddenly pouring, when they were now so close to their destination.

"Stop being dramatic and help here!" Isabel yelled. "You're making a princess build a shelter, have you no shame?!"

"It's alright, Isabel" Y/N said as she makes a knot of the cloths they have brought in order to at least shield themselves from the rain.

"I'm sorry, that was so out of character of me, please, your highness let me do that!" Furlan immediately took away the things Y/N carried.

"Really, it's okay Furlan"

"No it's not! And besides, my master is going to kill me with his glares" he whispered the last sentence and pointed at Levi before dashing away.

"Huh, have mercy on your subjects, shorty" Y/N teased but the man only grunted in response.

"Why are you even their master, you must come from a wealthy family" Y/N scoffed.

"Why are you a princess? You don't seem like one" he retorted.

"I swear to god!"

"Shh!" Furlan gestured which made all of them keep quiet. "Someone's coming" he said, and prepared to grab his sword, and he was right.

Isabel screamed as she tried to protect Y/N with her body, they were suddenly attacked, Levi was fast to deflect the sword that aimed at him, and Furlan did as well.

Y/N squinted her eyes at the three figures who suddenly appeared, her eyes widened upon realizing who it was.

"Wait! Stop!" she yelled, but they kept on attacking each other.

"Princess Y/N!" Mikasa yelled while still charging at Levi. "We'll protect you!"

"No! Stop fighting!" she yelled but they didn't listen. The sound of the rain was also getting in the way. They were now all soaked, and oh how it pissed Y/N off.

"You're alive!" Armin's eyes glistened when he saw her, as his sword clashes against Furlan's. "Did anyone of these kidnappers did something bad to you?!" he yelled.

"No! They helped me, so stop fighting! God!" they didn't seem to listen, Eren was about to snatch her away from Isabel but abruptly stopped as she glared at him. The sounds of metal clashing were still audible, so she ought to just step forward and take matters with her own hands. Y/N grabbed her sword and lunged, pushing Furlan forward and taking his place.

"Whoa!" Furlan yelped as his face was almost shoved on the ground. Y/N deflected Armin's sword, and when Armin realized it was the princess that he was fighting against, his hand stopped swinging his sword midair.

"I told you to stop!" she yelled once again, then turned to Mikasa and did the same.

As the fight finally came to a stop, so did the rain. And they all looked like a mess.

"Great! We're all getting sick tonight!" Y/N said, but Mikasa broke the silence when she laughed for the first time. "That's so Princess Y/N! It is her!" she laughed once again then ran up to her and hugged her tight. "Thank God you're alive!"

"Hey Armin! Stop staring and come here!" Eren exclaimed and pulled him towards Y/N and Mikasa. The man was about to cry.

"Ah! I'm in a rollercoaster of emotions right now!" he said and wiped his tears away as he joined the hug. "I can't believe we found you" he said, this only made Y/N chuckle, she pulled away from the two's embrace and smiled at them.

"Good job, captain" she said referring to Armin in his rank. "You've done your duty well"

"You're definitely insane, Princess Y/N!" Eren yelled and attempted to charge at her, but Armin was able to strain him back.

"Why would you jump off that cliff and make us find you?! You're damn crazy!"

"You're throwing insults to me?" Y/N raised a brow at Eren.

"Yes! I don't care about our rankings and positions at this moment! Just list the offenses for now and just punish me when you become queen, but right now I hate you!"

Levi chuckled at the green-eyed man's subtle insults at Y/N. "She's right though, you're one crazy woman" he said, it was meant to be just a side comment, but they all heard him.

"Oi! You suspicious short man! You do not dare insult princess Y/N! You ought to be punished right now!" Eren pointed at him. But Levi just shrugged his shoulders and Y/N took away is sword.

"Who are even these people? Why are you with them?" Eren complained.

"Shorty here saved me, and I offered them a deal, we're seeking out to find former general Smith, we're supposed to get to Midori river, but it rained and we built shelter here but it's all useless now." she said.

"General Smith? Why are you looking for him? He's been missing for years, right?" Armin recalled.

"Bet he's dead already" Levi responded.

"Hey! Take that back!" Y/N exclaimed.

"Princess, for what purpose? What you need is to hide now. Your life is in danger, you're wanted and Zeke will not stop until he sees you dead. I'm serious when I'm telling you that man's ideals are crazy" Mikasa held her hands, worry laced on her face.

"He wants to wipe out all of the royals in the world, claiming they're nothing but useless people who acts as if they own the world." Armin added.

"That is true though" Levi side-comments and Mikasa snapped back at him.

"But not in this kingdom. Everybody is given equal opportunities here. Have you seen a single person that's suffering here? "

Levi tried to recall his travels. "No" he replied.

"Exactly, the number of illegal immigrants are increasing each year trying to begin a new life in this kingdom, due to the fact that the each citizen has a right here, and they are heard. Of course no government is perfect" Mikasa tried to recall how Y/N's parents helped her family when they fled from a neighboring kingdom. They were starved and scathed, but they gave them a new chance in life, and that's why she swore she would serve Y/N for life.

"Touché" Levi replied.

"No Mikasa, I will not go in hiding" Y/N said, now with a serious and stern tone. "I want you three, to come with me" Y/N turned to her childhood friends. "I will look for Erwin Smith, in hopes of him lending a hand to me." she paused, and what she said next made their eyes widen . "I'm taking back the throne...no matter what"

For a moment, they were stunned at her declaration, Mikasa and Eren were in doubt if she can actually take it back, but Armin thought otherwise, he kneeled and bowed his head and said "I will always be on your side, your highness, trust that I will offer my best for this kingdom and our fellow countrymen, no other person is fit to lead us all, but you"

At this, Mikasa and Eren did the same, and bowed at her. "Forgive me for doubting for a moment, your highness. But as Armin stated, I am also always by your side, use us to the best of our abilities as you intend to"

Y/N let out a faint smile. "Very well-is my reply as your princess" she says. "But as your friend..."

The three of them both yelped in surprise as the princess tackled them in a hug. "I say thank you"

"So!" Y/N released them from her embrace and clasped her hands. "Armin, Mikasa, Eren, meet Isabel, Furlan and eh, Levi"

Levi scoffed at the way she introduced them.

"Isabel, Furlan, Levi, meet my personal guard, my younger brother's guard and lady-in-waiting which are also my childhood friends" she introduced them to Armin, Eren and Mikasa and vice versa.

They nodded and recognized each other's presence.

"I hope you'll work well together"
