"It all depends on Eren if he has the capability to push through" I replied to Levi's report about the experiment, concern fills my head for the future if we could not plug wall Maria.

Hange followed suit, she walked in with a happy smile on her face despite the failed experiment, plopping herself down to where Levi sat

"What's got you so happy?" I asked with a raised brow, Hange can barely contain her energy as she looks at me with sparkles across her eyes

"Yuriel had agreed for an experiment tomorrow, the way I saw her sword slice the rock like some soft boiled meat is amazing!" She exclaimed rocking back and forth in her seat.

Intrigued, now that Yuriel has made it to the conversation I notice myself sitting more straighter, leaning toward the table with my hands flexed

"Someone's Interested now." Levi commented with a scoff, for some reason this late at night he still has the urge to drink tea. I won't comment on my friends' drinking habits though.

"I'm merely wanting to know more of the events that happened with her recently." I shrugged playing it cool, my interest in her never disappeared even while Hange talks about her and her hypothetical guesses in strength limit

I'm not aware how much we've been talking about Yuriel when a knock on the door interrupted our conversation, the voice from the other side somewhat familiar.

"It's Mikasa, commander." She called out her tone somewhat sounding frantic, full of anxiety as she stepped into the room with the three of us occupying the space.

"What's wrong brat?" Levi asked with a raised brow, all three of us waited in anticipation expecting bad news from her. To be honest the only reason she's here at night is probably somewhat bad, no one would come here in the middle of the night if otherwise.

"The others might be in danger, Yuriel asked me to get you." Although Monotonous I could still hear the panic in her tone, I could see her fingers fidgeting.

"What's wrong with them?" Hange asked now standing, as well as Levi and me. All of us jumped into gear the moment we heard danger

"Yuriel has been poisoned and is having an effect, I don't know what is happening right now but I know it's just bad if we let it fester without any knowledge of it." Mikasa explains as we wove through the hallway and into the starry night

The air is cold, hitting my skin like second coat. I ordered the scouts to ready our horses as we settle the information into our brains.

Yuriel is poisoned, she might die.

We rode the horse with speed as much as we could, following Mikasa to where the Levi Squad is resting. By the time we got there, sunrise had already seeped in, the cold warmth of the morning light didn't help the uneasy feeling growing in my stomach

Like knives punching itself in my middle

"Eren, we're back!" Her alarmed voice rang, she was the first one to reach the door before all three of us could. Once we were inside, there we saw a tired looking silver haired girl whose eyes no longer shines, the shadow cast on her golden eyes hinders the glint that usually comes when sunlight hits her

Yuriel has a knife in her hand, plunged deep into Eren's heart. My heart thudded inside my chest as if it couldn't wait to leap out of its container

"Yuriel, what the hell are you doing?!" Levi, his calm voice Shattered the tension around the room. Although his demeanor is calm his vibe is murderous, it came face to face with Yuriel's aura of blood
