The Beauty of Flowers and Death (AOT X KNY OC)

Chapter 5: Starving

Yuriel Rose

I slept like a log, I don't know how it happened or why. It's like my body decided to just shut down after being hit with this all new dangerous place I'm in.

I don't know how many days it is it, my body feels too refreshed for my liking, I feel like I want to tear this room from the bottom up and go eat something that can actually fill my stomach

Ever since the talk with the scouts that snuck inside my room before my body decided to shut down, I've had a distinct imagination of what a Titan looks like.

Finally stepping out from the dark shell I've slept in called the room, I walked out into the field where many of the scouts are training.

The heavy wounds finally healed—thank the lords for that—the little ones were healed long ago but the heavy hit took time.

While stuck inside the room I've finally finished stitching my Haori, I've fixed the damages of the clothes once I've asked for a sewing kit which thankfully they have.

I got a lot of things I'm thankful for.

Finally getting myself some sunlight, I make my way towards where the scouts I know, while I walk I couldn't help but notice the eyes I get along the way when the other scouts notice me walking around freely

They watch as if I'm a thing that should be curious about but like all of them, to their disappointment. I'm human, and nothing will ever and would ever change that fact.

Reaching to the people I know by name, I find out that the reason they are in the field is that they are doing their daily training as a scout. By automatic curiosity I find myself watching the battle between Mikasa and Jean

Mikasa is a skilled hand to hand fighter, I wonder where she got those moves from. On the other hand Jean's stance and moves needs more practice. Watching their performance I saw many flaws on Jean's side I couldn't help but notice, it's like he isn't even trying with her.

On the end note of the performance, Mikasa naturally won with Jean on his back looking like he had been love struck and not physically painfully struck.

The glaring man who's been watching the fight tsk'd at Jean and put Mikasa out of the fight, changing her with Eren. Suddenly out of nowhere, I don't know where he pulled that motivation out but he suddenly stood up with a "ready to fight" stance now that Mikasa had been switched to Eren

There's a burning fire in his eyes that relayed his hatred of Eren. I'm not sure if that is his hatred but there is something going on between the two.

Jean's sudden motivation that he pulled somewhere in the rear end of his brain matches the motivational fire inside Eren's eyes to win.

So engrossed by the fight so much that I didn't notice a yellow haired boy observing me from a distance, not until he was standing beside me asking me a question.

"Are you okay?"

"What?" Stuttering, surprised at his sudden appearance. Once I've gotten my bearings I nodded at his question, thankfully he didn't ask anymore.

"Is this on a daily basis?" I questioned, the boy who I've come to learn as Armin shook his head in reply. We both watched in silence, half of my brain waiting for his explanation while the other half tries to convince me that it won't happen

"It started off as a fight between Connie and Jean."

"What's the fight about?"

"Between the two, who's the strongest?"
