Warnings: Canonical Violence, descriptions of injury 

Two days had passed since you had woken up in the hospital, but most things went back to normal. Mikasa had sought you out to apologise, which you instantly brushed off. You had given her a knowing look, telling her you knew what it felt to want vengeance for those you love. She had looked at you in surprise and, in turn, surprised you with a slight smile as she thanked you again and wandered off. Eren had also checked up on you, grateful for your support in getting him back. You smiled to yourself; they were good kids.

Levi had been... overbearing, to say the least. Barely letting you move despite the fact that your wound was healing at the abnormal pace it was. He, on the other hand, was the one who needed the rest, as you got concerned each time he would grasp at the leg he injured. It turned out that before he had come to your side, he had landed wrong in his haste to get Mikasa to get Eren to safety. Despite that, you were happy to have more time with him as both of us were grounded due to our injuries. Erwin's orders.

During that time, he had debriefed you on the situation and upcoming operation. Apparently, with the help of the members of the 104th Training Corps, the blond boy, Armin, had helped to identify a person of interest that may be the Female Titan. Annie Leonhart. The one also supposedly responsible for killing Sawney and Bean. Evidently, she was part of the same 104th Training Corps and is now part of the Military Police. The operation would take place in the Stohess District within Wall Sina on the way to the capital. This was our last chance to capture the Female Titan; otherwise, we would have to give Eren up to the Capital. If that happened, our pursuit of finding those who wish to destroy the walls would become increasingly difficult, to the point where humanity may go extinct.

The plan itself was that Erwin, Levi and you, along with a boy named Jean disguised as Eren, would pass through Stohess. Then, Eren would act as a decoy and lead Annie into the Underground tunnel. If they got her to the lowest level, even if she transformed, we would be able to immobilize her. However, if she had transformed before, then Eren would likely have to transform as well, and with the help of the Scouts, try to capture her. Of course, though, this was Erwin's plan, meaning there's also a plan C. If Plan B fails, Hange and Miche would be on standby, ready to entrap the female Titan with metal wires used in the Giant Forest. All of this would have to be done without you and Levi's assistance.

Nurse Frida had already warned you that the bleeding on your side had only recently stopped fully, your skin barely holding the injury together. If you made any sudden movements before it was fully healed, you could risk reopening it, making you return to the dire situation you were in only a few days ago. Unfortunately, Levi had been present when she gave you the rundown. You had only told him about the ability to heal at an abnormal pace, not including any other facts you had found out the days prior or of your dream. You didn't want to burden him more than you knew he was. He had taken the warning from Frida seriously, however, and though you lacked the need for bandages now, he made sure your movements were always careful as to stop you from bleeding out again.

You now stepped out of the carriage in a simple, long black dress with matching high heels on your feet. I picked them out with Petra a few months ago. We had come to a halt due to a disturbance down the road, though you knew the "disturbance" to probably be Annie having transformed before we could encase her in the Underground tunnel. You sigh, before looking at your surroundings. You don't think you can get used to this whole "formal attire" thing. You glance over to Levi, who stands next to you. He was also in formal attire: a black jacket and pants with a white buttoned-up shirt underneath. Okay, you think to yourself, maybe I could get used to it. Well, that was before you saw the Military Police, who looked shamelessly at you. Levi had already given a dozen Scouts cleaning duty during our preparation to the Capital for, quote, "getting too distracted."
