Endless water full of salt. Fiery water. Frozen water. That's what Eren Jaeger always think of.

"Oi, Eren, snap out of it." Jean glared at him. "All that you are saying is nonsense."

The green eyed boy slammed his fist on the table. "What do you mean that's nonsense? Don't you want to see what it's like beyond these shitty walls?"

Jean just laughed. "Oh, Eren. You are always out of control. That's why other people died."

"SHUT UP! GO TO HELL YOU HORSE-FACED BASTARD!"

Jean flinched. He tried to punch Eren, but Mikasa blocked his blow.

"Ah! Sorry Mika-"

"Don't you dare hurt Eren." she glared right back at him.

Jean was embarrassed. He just walked away. "Hey, Mikasa! Stop trying to protect me!" Eren yelled at her. Mikasa frowned. "But he was going to hit you."

"I don't care if he hits me! That will be his fault! Can you at least try not to stick with me?!" Eren furiously left.

"What have I done..." Mikasa held her head. Armin showed up. "You got a problem with Eren again?" he questioned.

"Yeah..."

"Let's just try not to be around him for a while."

Eren went to the porch. He rested his head at the fence. "Jean, you bastard... I looked weak a while ago..."

When he looked at his side, he saw a petite figure. "Oh, I didn't notice you."

She looked at him. "What happened to the two of you again?" Eren stood up straight and leaned on his elbows. "Ah, it's nothing."
The two were silent for a minute.

"Hey, I don't get Mikasa. Why does she want to be with me for like, all the time?"

Historia was surprised. "What's with the sudden question?"

"She just fought Jean for me, but I did not even need her help. I can show that horse-face I am strong."

"Mikasa really cares about you. Do you still remember when you saved her?"

"Yeah?"

"She can't thank you enough for that. That's why she wants to repay you."

Eren thought about it. "You're right... but, I don't really need her help." Historia just kept silent. "I need to go..."

"Eh? Go where?" the brunette asked.

"Oh, just somewhere." she replied as she walks farther away from the porch. "Hey, why are going to the forest?" he stopped her. "Don't tell anyone, ok?" the girl scratched her head and took his hand.

As they walk through the forest, Eren noticed they are going farther away from the log cabin. "Are you sure you know where we are going?" he worriedly asked. "Yes, I am sure." she replied without looking back.

After a long walk, the two stopped. "We're here." she let go of his hand. It was an old ranch. There were some fireflies. "Woah, fireflies?" Eren tried to jump over the rotting wooden fence. "This is the entrance." Historia lifted a wood and opened the gate.

The two entered, and there were some more fireflies. "Cool." he tried to catch one on his palms. The fireflies were fast. Eren was still trying to catch at least one until he splatted a firefly on his hands. "Agh!" he tried to remove the bug. Its light was fading away.

"Here." Historia got her handkerchief from her pocket and gave it to Eren. "Th-thank you..." he took it and wiped the dead firefly off his palm. "Why don't we try to use a jar?" she went and took a jar from the storage. "Hey, Historia." Eren called out. "What?" she answered.

"How do you know this place?"

"Well..." she started.

"After I got my alias, my father's men brought me here. They told me that my father said to let me stay here until I am age 12."

"So, you worked here?"

"Yeah, but then there was a titan sighting, so me and the other workers fled to the town."

Eren was shocked. "Titan sighting?"

"It was like a 4-meter titan. I heard a man screamed." she continued.

Historia opened the jar. "Alright, you can go get some fireflies if you want." Eren took the jar and went to a nearby group of fireflies. "Haha! I caught some!" he cheered. Historia was smiling. Then, she felt a drop of water. She looked up, and then there were thick clouds that were covering the sky. "Eren! It will rain soon!" she alerted him. "One sec!" he tried to seal the jar shut. "Come on!" she grabbed him and he almost dropped the jar.

The rain was getting harder. The two were still running back to the cabin. "Shit! The soil is becoming muddy!" Eren cussed. "Let's hurry up!" Historia kept running. "You can slow down, you know?!" he yelled as a lightning struck. "Gyah!" she hugged him.

"A-are you afraid of the lightning?" Eren asked. She nodded her head with moving her lips. "Alright, let's just slow down for a while..."

"No, let's go now!" she demanded.

"But the soil is muddy and slippery! And we're now already wet! What's the point of running?"

"I don't want to see the lightning again."

"Fine..." he just sighed.

"Here, hold this." he gave the jar of fireflies to her. Then, he took his brown long sleeves and covered their heads. After placing the long sleeves, he wrapped his arm around her head. "There, so that you cannot hear the thunder no see the lightning." The two proceeded to walk back to the cabin.

"E-Eren!" Armin opened the door. "Where did you two go?"

Everyone went to the living room while the two were shivering and wrapped with a dry blanket. "Hey, brats, where did you go?" Levi asked the two. "Sorry, captain..." Eren mumbled.

"By the way, where did you get this cool jar?" Connie held the jar full of fireflies. "Answer me, where did you two went while I was away?"

"We went to the place where I spent two years after the fall of Wall Maria." Historia answered. Eren just kept silent.

"I see." Levi just looked outside of the window. It was still raining. "Let us head there tomorrow when the rain is gone." he said. "Now, let us all go to sleep."

"Hey Tori!" Sasha went near to the blonde girl. "What is it, Sasha?" Historia was still shivering. "What happened to you and Eren?" she asked. "Well... we just went to the ranch. It's not a big deal." Historia just shrugged. "Aw come on, are you sure? You two were in the rain, and what's with the fireflies?" she smirked.

"The fireflies were always at the land. And, we didn't know that there will be rainy clouds coming."

"But, what did you two do when you were coming back?"

"Uh..." Historia just shook her head.

Sasha grinned wildly. "What?"

"We went back. That's it." Historia assured.

"Aw, I know there's something more than just going back." Sasha pointed her finger at her.

"Good luck trying to find out." Historia smirked.

"I will!" Sasha rubbed her hands like an evil scientist.

Sasha rushed to Connie and Jean. "Hey guys, will you help me at something?"

"Eh? What is it, Sasha?" Connie asked while watching the fireflies. "Yeah, what is it, Potato Girl?" Jean folded his arms.

"Help me find out what the two did when they were out." she cheerfully asked. "Heh, that's a pretty good idea. Let's try, ey Jean?" Connie tugged Jean. Jean just tried not reply. "Oi, Jean!" Sasha waved her hand on his face. "Yeah, fine, whatever!" Jean yelled.
